One Piece: From Picking Up Red Hair's Broken Arm

Chapter 344 The Pervert Named Khomi
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed since the war ended.

On this afternoon, in a certain sea area of ​​the New World, the sun shone brightly.

Having just finished handling official business in the Milky Way, Shano boarded the Curtain Fall and headed towards Dawn Island.

On the deck, Shano rubbed his temples wearily and lay down under the parasol to relax.

After achieving victory in the war against the World Government, the Fallen Ones' territory expanded once again by a large margin.

Besides the islands where the G-series naval branches are located, many other islands that were previously hesitant have also submitted applications to join.

This led to a sudden surge in Shano's workload.

Although the current leader has a well-established political system and a large number of cadres to help share the burden, at this juncture, as a leader, he still needs to personally handle a large number of important decisions.

From the troop deployments on the front-line islands to the handover of power in some new territories, and the redistribution of resources...

Many things are far-reaching, forcing him to spend a lot of energy weighing them.

Tsk.

Government affairs are as troublesome as ever...

"elder brother!"

Nami walked over carrying a bunch of orange sodas, casually tossing two cans over, "Here, catch!"

"Ok?"

Xia Nuo casually took it, glanced at it, and was somewhat surprised, "Canned?"

The orange juice he used to drink was all personally made by Uncle Zeff; this was the first time he had ever seen properly bottled orange soda.

"Hehe, this is the most popular trend in the beverage industry right now!"

Nami sat down on the recliner next to him with a grin, pulled the tab, and took a big gulp. "Brother, you really have no idea how popular you are."

"Just two months ago, I don't know which issue of the newspaper it was, there was a report that you liked to drink orange soda, and suddenly a lot of brands that specialize in producing orange soda popped up, one after another, and they all sold like hotcakes!"

"This is probably what is called the celebrity effect."

Robin walked over with a smile, opened a can of soda, winked, and said to Shano with a mischievous grin:
"And in terms of fame, who can compare to our King of the Four Seas these days?"

She had been staying in the Milky Way region for some time now, spending all her time in the Ohara Library.

But the day after tomorrow night, Dawn Island will be hosting the grandest banquet since the Fallen Ones were founded, so they all boarded the ship together.

Those traveling on the ship included Kuina, Zeff, Smoker, Agin, Nojiko, and others.

Everyone gathered on the deck, sharing orange soda. Ah Yin, on the other hand, had just secretly drunk strawberry milk and was feeling dizzy and dazed, so he lay on the bow of the ship sunbathing...

The sea breeze blows.

For a moment, it left people feeling somewhat dazed.

It felt like a long-lost memory, as if we had returned to the time when the group set off from the East China Sea and their adventure had just begun.

I really miss those times.

The only thing that feels a little off.

Perhaps only Nuomici remained, standing motionless behind Xia Nuo like a bodyguard.

She was clearly eyeing the warm, sun-drenched spot next to Ah Yin, and wished she could run over and lie down there with him.

But fearing that the image of a holy archangel he had cultivated would crumble, he gritted his teeth and endured it...

"King of the four seas? Don't make fun of me, Robin."

Hearing Robin's words, Shano snapped out of his daze and shook his head helplessly.

The title "King of the Four Seas" has reached his ears in the past two days, and he is still a little unaccustomed to it. It sounds strange and a bit exaggerated.

After all, the Fallen Ones' current sphere of influence already encompasses most of the New World.

It has already extended to the North Sea and the West Sea on both sides, but it is still a long way from unifying the four seas. However, it is barely acceptable.

It's better than that previous incongruous "World's Greatest Swordsman".

Ever since the war ended, a certain middle-aged, wealthy man who used to run around in a coffin every day has been like a madman, relentlessly following him, stubbornly insisting on having an ultimate duel between sword masters...

Let's have a showdown!
How will this showdown unfold?

He was proficient in hundreds of boxing styles, but he knew nothing about swordsmanship!

Even though he had told the other party all of this very sincerely, Hawkeye still refused to believe him, thinking that he had underestimated him and disdained to fight him!
Just thinking about it left Xia Nuo speechless. He casually crushed the empty soda can and tossed it into the air in a fit of anger.

boom!
Five seconds later, a clear impact sound came from the stern.

Everyone on the deck was startled and turned to look.

It was the empty soda can that Xia Nuo had just thrown that traced a beautiful parabola before accurately hitting the forehead of a man sitting on a small coffin boat two hundred meters away.

It caused a dent in his entire forehead.

"..."

Hawkeye Mihawk expressionlessly reached out and removed the soda can from his forehead.

Then he raised his head and looked over with a deep, wistful gaze.

Is it really that accurate?
Xia Nuo felt a bit annoyed and went to the railing: "What? Are you never going to stop? Why are you still following me around?"

"If you want some peace and quiet, then accept my duel request."

Mihawk spoke calmly:
"I've said it before, we've missed each other far too many times. I swear I won't give up until I fight you."

"I've already said it, I really don't know swordsmanship!"

Xia Nuozhen was furious. "The world's greatest swordsman? You can take it if you want, and Kuina can snatch it back from you later. It has nothing to do with me. You idiot, can you even understand human language!"

If it weren't for the fact that this guy was Tashigi's master and was relatively sensible, having refrained from further attacks after defeating Kuina in the previous war, he would have given this guy a good beating.

He, Xia Nuo, is the mighty King of the Four Seas!
Being followed by a pervert on your own turf every day, don't you have any dignity?
"I will go and fight in your place, my lord."

At this moment, Guina followed and said solemnly, "I've been holding a grudge against them since my last defeat and want to challenge them again."

Her right hand was already on the hilt of Sakura's sword, her gaze fixed intently on Hawkeye in the distance.

Last time, her opponent was indeed more skilled, and she ultimately couldn't hold out.

But after that battle and these few days of rest, her understanding of swordsmanship has improved, and she is eager to clash with this formidable opponent again.

"I acknowledge Lady Kuina's swordsmanship, but I'm sorry, there's no need to fight an opponent I've just defeated a second time."

Hawkeye shook his head at Kuina, then turned his sharp gaze back to Shano, frowning as he said:

"Stop making excuses. The only person I want to challenge is you, Lord Shano!"

"Out of respect for you, I've tried to be courteous first, but that's already the limit of how much I've tolerated your arrogance these past few days. If you continue to insist on avoiding a fight like this..."

He slowly rose to his feet, drawing the black sword Night from his back. "Then don't blame me for using this sword to prove my resolve!"

You don't know swordsmanship?

To still use such a ridiculous excuse now, do they think he's a fool like Tashigi? How could anyone believe that!

On that day on the battlefield, he witnessed, in a fleeting glimpse, the other party beheaded the Five Elders, Garin Saint, with a single sword strike!
That domineering and arrogant scene was the dream of every swordsman, and he would never forget it in his life!

Swish!
The next moment.

Black Blade Night suddenly drew its sheath, and the sharp sword energy instantly tore through the sea surface, forming a huge black and red slash that roared horizontally!

Look at this posture.

It was clearly intended to cut the entire Curtain Call into two pieces!
