Pirate: The Strongest Pirate Merchant

Chapter 3: Shanks’ Shock!

Shanks wants to stay in Windmill Village and is not in a hurry to leave. He plans to use this place as a temporary base camp and travel and explore in East Blue.

Lin En also decided to stay in Windmill Village for a few more days, and the sailors were naturally happy.

From dawn to dusk.

After night falls, as the bonfire rises, the bonfire party starts on a whim.

Makino asked women from the village to help.

Barbecue, beer, and fruit wine are all available in unlimited quantities.

The pirates of the Red Hair Pirates and the sailors of the Lin En Merchant Group gathered together to drink and chat about each other's experiences.

I also brag occasionally.

When gambling, everyone will try their best to cheat.

The two sides communicated harmoniously.

At this time, Shanks suddenly put down his glass and said to Lin En: "Would you like to have a fight with me?"

Lin En put down his glass and replied: "I'm not good at fighting."

Shanks raised his hand and touched the tiger's mouth.

Lin En looked down at his tiger's mouth and said with a wry smile: "It seems that I have to remember to wear gloves in the future."

The calluses on the tiger's mouth are proof that he has been holding the sword for many years.

As a swordsman, Shanks observed this when he met Lin En.

"Have a fight!"

The pirates and sailors began to boo.

At this point in the banquet, everyone has drunk a lot and is getting excited.

If you refuse at this time, it will be really disappointing.

Lin En hesitated for a while.

Makino looked at Lin En with some worry.

Makino has not seen Lin En fight, but Lin En does have many scars on his body.

Lin En once explained that it was a battle encountered when doing business.

Lin En said to his assistant Leonard: "Bring me my knife."

There are flower-like carvings on the scabbard, and the sword is in the shape of three petals.

The moment the knife is unsheathed.

The blade was completely black and shone coldly under the firelight.

Shanks opened his eyes wide, and at the same time, he praised: "What a rare sword!"

Lin En stroked the blade gently and said, "It's called Huang. I begged the master for a long time to forge it."

Lin En's knife is no ordinary knife. It was made by Shimotsuki Kozaburo himself.

And his master is Shimotsuki Kozaburo, a swordsman from Wanokuni who once created Yama and Wado Ichimonji.

Shanks also used his left hand to pull out the Western sword from his waist and said, "It's really getting more and more exciting!"

As a sailor tossed the bottle high into the air.

The moment the bottle fell to the ground.

Lin En and Shanks moved at the same time.

The knife in Lin En's hand struck directly at Shanks' left arm.

Shanks is left-handed.

Lin En is also curious about how strong Shanks is at this time.

when!

The swords cut together heavily.

Lin En exerted force on his back, and at the same time, he moved his right foot forward, stepped forward, and pressed the knife towards Shanks.

Shanks couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.

He thought Lin En was very strong, but he didn't expect that he would be so strong!

"It's been a long time since I had a serious fight."

Shanks didn't flinch, and started to exert force in almost the same way.

Both are very powerful and want to overwhelm the other in strength.

The competition begins!

Rakiru muttered: "This is the first time I see a guy who can compete with the boss."

Beckman said to Yasopp: "Yasopp, your friend is very powerful. Why haven't I heard you mention him before?"

Yasopp was stunned for a while, and then said with a hint of embarrassment: "I have never seen Lin En fight."

"Is that so?" Beckman said thoughtfully.

At this time, Shanks and Lin En exerted their strength at the same time. They each exerted their strength, supported the knife with both hands, and pressed hard against each other.

Bang!

The ground cracked open, with dense network-like cracks appearing.

The explosions produced by their respective exertions made people's ears buzz, and Makino even subconsciously covered his ears.

Immediately, the two of them each jumped a step back, seemingly distancing themselves from each other.

Just the next second, after Lin En and Shanks landed, each of their feet hit the ground heavily.

boom!

The ground beneath the two men suddenly shook. While shattering the surface of the formation, the shock waves generated had already affected the area watching the battle.

Along with the shock wave, there was smoke and dust all over the sky.

"So fast!"

Rakiru's eyes widened.

The smoke and dust filled the air, making it difficult to trace the two figures.

Ding ding ding! ! !

Under the firelight, the swords kept slashing at each other.

The light and shadow of the sword cannot be seen clearly.

Flying towards the surrounding Mars, it’s thrilling

Once they fought, they both knew that the other was an experienced swordsman.

Therefore, when attacking, there is no unnecessary movement.

Each strike seemed to split the heaven and earth apart.

Every sword energy seems to penetrate the world.

The sword energy was so sharp that it was dazzling.

The two men's sword drawing speed and movement speed continued to increase!

The slashes from the two men opened deep trenches in the wilderness.

The deepest part is even more bottomless.

Ding!

The sword energy tore through the air.

Trees and boulders were cut open in response.

As the two men's fighting spirit increased again, the swords collided again!

Boom!

Broken sand and gravel, flying sawdust, and stirring dust.

When the smoke cleared and the dust settled, a huge crater with a diameter of hundreds of meters appeared where the two stood.

The surrounding wilderness is even more like encountering a meteorite!

The collision between the two slashing attacks completely destroyed everything.

This is too exaggerated!

Yasopp's eyes widened, he had known Lin En since he was a child.

When Lin En was a child, he never played with them. In Yasopp's eyes, he was a very 'quiet' person.

As Lin En grows up, he becomes more and more stable.

I just didn’t expect that Lin En would be so strong!

And like Shanks, they all seem to be monsters!

Shanks suddenly put away his sword, and Lin En also put down his sword.

Shanks said seriously: "If we continue fighting like this, there will be no results in just a few days and nights."

Lin En nodded and said, "That's fine, I don't want to get hurt either."

Exchanging injuries for injuries may be able to force out the opponent's weaknesses.

However, there is no reason to fight to the death.

Beckman, Rakiru, Yasopp and others were so shocked that they were speechless.

Shanks laughed, walked up to Lin En, patted Lin En hard on the back, and said, "Let's have a bar fight."

Makino had already breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly came to Lin En's side, circling back and forth, worrying whether he was injured.

This scene was watched by Shanks and others.

Laqiru laughed and said: "Boss Boss, the boss is very powerful, you don't need to worry about him."

Makino blushed, lowered his head, and then secretly glanced at Lin En.

…

Lin En stayed in Windmill Village for about ten days.

At the same time, Lin En also purchased a lot of pickled agricultural products in Windmill Village.

In addition, the mushrooms in Windmill Village and the mountain vegetables on Liming Island are of good quality.

High-quality ingredients are very popular in the catering industry and are in short supply.

Lin En purchased a lot this time, and because of the large quantity, he also got enough discounts on the price.

Although the price given by Lin En is not high, if they want to take it to the Kingdom of Gaya for sale, it will not only take a lot of time, but also need to pay a lot of taxes.

After deducting taxes and the time cost of traveling and selling, the price given by Lin En is not bad.

Therefore, the villagers are happy to cooperate with Lin En.

Lin En loaded the purchased goods onto the ship and then said goodbye to Makino.

Shanks and others had already left Windmill Village the day before.

They are only leaving temporarily and will come back later.

According to Shanks and others, they will complete their expedition in East Blue before leaving.

Places like ‘Sea Navel’.

At this time, the sailors on the ship shouted towards the dock: "Boss, the ship is about to start."

Lin En said to Makino: "I'm leaving."

"Yeah." Makino nodded.

I have to experience this separation every month.

"I will come back."
