Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

His figure vanished from the deck in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, Junzi transformed into a silver streak and shot towards the direction where Bondi Wald was.

Qilingom Saint let out an excited shriek.

Meanwhile, Number 46, who left first, has silently approached the area where Luffy and Mihawk are fighting.

Standing on the command platform, Sengoku saw the four figures emerging from the warship.

The Knights of God have finally made their move.

He felt a little more at ease, but at the same time, a complex emotion arose within him.

Asking these Celestial Dragons' cleaners to take action means that the Navy has used one of its last trump cards in this war.

Regardless of victory or defeat, the world government will use this as a pretext to strengthen its control over the navy afterward.

Sengoku's gaze followed the figure of number 46, his brows furrowed.

The masked man is now heading straight for Luffy.

All members of the Knights of God are very strong and possess a special power.

but,

"Can he handle Straw Hat Boy?"

"Warring States period," he muttered to himself.

......

"We've just received intelligence that Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, seems to have clashed with Kaido, another of the Four Emperors, in the New World. It looks like no new forces will be joining the battle here!"

Ivankov's pupils contracted, and cold sweat poured down his forehead, not because of the news brought by the lightning, but because he saw several figures on a warship in the distance.

The terrifying aura emanating from those individuals in their distinctive uniforms swept over us.

That aura!

The scene Ivankov least wanted to recall flashed through his mind.

Moreover, one of them charged towards Luffy.

"Straw Hat Boy!" Ivankov exclaimed in horror.

Even without Ivankov's reminder, Luffy had just forced Mihawk back with a powerful slash when he sensed a frantic warning from his Observation Haki.

finally come.

These guys.

laugh!

A thin, almost invisible silver thread grazed his neck, severing a few strands of his black hair.

On the ice, a man wearing an orange mask stood quietly, his rapier slightly tilted, the tip pointing to the ground.

Hawkeye stopped what he was doing, looked at the uninvited guest, and frowned slightly.

"Who are you?" Luffy asked warily.

No one answered.

He simply raised his rapier slowly, the tip pointing at Luffy.

“D, you guys shouldn’t exist,” Number 46 said coldly.

The moment he finished speaking, he vanished.

It was incredibly fast; in the next instant, the sword tip was already pressed against Luffy's chest.

Clang!

Android 46 was stunned for a moment when he saw Luffy blocking his weapon with a sword in his hand.

Is it even possible for it to keep up with my speed?

This guy's Observation Haki seems to be quite strong as well.

Luffy gripped his demonic power tightly, grinned at the man in front of him, and said, "Since you're already out here, I won't hold back."

"What do you mean?"

Click.

"So fast!"

Number 46 was horrified. A flash of sword light appeared, and his right arm was severed.

"We've been waiting for you for a long time."

Hiss...

Luffy exuded an aura of dominance, and dark patterns began to coil around him. He exhaled a breath of stale air, "I thought you guys were much stronger."

Despite fighting Hawkeye for so long, Luffy didn't use the power of his Devil Fruit much.

Energy and physical strength are both limited.

Like Magellan, Luffy fought the entire battle.

Using Devil Fruit abilities will cause a sharp increase in the consumption of Haki and stamina.

When Luffy sensed several ominous presences on the battlefield using his Observation Haki... no, it might be the instinct of his Nika Fruit, he waited there.

At times like these, one cannot rely on impulsive actions born of passion.

Luffy felt relieved after those guys, number 46, came out.

Finally, I can let go and do whatever I want.

Although this guy looks strong, he's not excessively strong.

Like strong.

Second gear plus!

Before his severed arm could heal, the attack had already arrived. Instinctively, Number 46 raised his remaining arm and held his rapier in front of him to block.

It's blocked!

But the force of the attack was astonishing; number 46 was sent flying and slid dozens of meters across the ice before finally coming to a stop.

He looked down at his chest and saw a rather deep sword wound.

"Is he really that strong?" Number 46 frowned and said, "I knew we couldn't let you D clan guys grow up."

"Why can a severed arm regenerate? And the injuries on the body too? So that's what's strange about it."

Luffy frowned as he watched Android 46 quickly return to his original form: "Is it a Devil Fruit ability?"

No, that's not right.

His strike was imbued with Haki; even a Devil Fruit ability wouldn't be able to counter it.

"Dracule Mihawk, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, cooperate with me."

Number 46 turned back to Hawkeye and gave the order, "Just like before."

If someone is strong, it might earn him a slightly higher opinion of them.

On this battlefield, Hawkeye is one of the few who possesses this qualification.

It's unclear whether Hawkeye heard him or not, but he took a step forward.

"Black Blade, Nightfall!"

The jet-black blade darkened the area ahead, and the area where Number 46 was located was enveloped in impenetrable darkness.

Under the cover of night, the deep, hard ice layer was completely cut open, and the seawater in the area was instantly evaporated.

This attack even made the generals slightly turn their heads.

"Are you finally getting serious?"

Seeing this, Kizaru narrowed his eyes and said, "Wow, this man."

He truly deserves the strength of the world's greatest swordsman.

but,

"Not dead?"

Hawkeye frowned slightly as he watched Number 46's body return to normal under the sword's edge in the night.

This situation is very similar to some of the people Shanks mentioned before.

The legendary immortal body?

"Hawkeye!"

Number 46's voice became somewhat shrill with anger.

Was it aimed at him when it was shot?

Moreover, that powerful sword move just now, you said it included Straw Hat Luffy, so why did the blade stop right in front of Straw Hat Luffy?

This is blatant discrimination!

“I’ll be your opponent, Hawkeye.”

A shower of red rose petals filled the sky, followed by two rapiers slashing down, which Hawkeye blocked with his black sword, Yoru.

"Vista, the 5th Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Seeing Vista's excited expression, Hawkeye nodded. "I've been wanting to meet you for a while now."

If the battle with the Straw Hats is interrupted, then the fun won't be complete.

The swordsman in front of me is also a well-known figure; he can be used to pass the time.

As for that masked man?

Hawkeye was quite annoyed by being disturbed; if he weren't immortal, that guy would already be dead.

Vista's forehead was covered in a fine sweat. The man in front of him was the ultimate goal that all swordsmen dreamed of. To receive such praise from Hawkeye was a kind of recognition.

Having just witnessed the entire clash between Luffy and Mihawk, Vista realized the gap between himself and this man.
