One Piece: The Emperor-Level Item Master Shocks the World

But suddenly he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

immediately.

He turned around, his eyes filled with undisguised horror.

Zoro's legs trembled slightly.

It seems like the next second.

He was about to collapse from exhaustion.

Hawkeye's body did not move just now.

Instead, he rammed his own chest into his knife.

How can this be?

Did Hawkeye already plan his offensive moves?!

So that's why you deliberately struck that pose?!

Did you make yourself run into it?

This is simply unbelievable.

Is this the strength of the world's greatest swordsman?

Is he really overestimating himself?!

Zoro was panting heavily, the muscles in his chest heaving, and his body trembling.

In the end, Zoro couldn't hold on any longer. He knelt down and gritted his teeth, saying:

"I've lost. Do with me as you please!"

Upon hearing this...

Hawkeye Mihawk sheathed his sword, a look of disdain in his eyes.

"There are too many swordsmen in this world who act rashly out of recklessness!"

"I respect your dreams; you can set anyone as your goal!"

"But if you're targeting me, I can only tell you, this path is blocked!"

As he spoke, Hawkeye turned slightly to the side, glancing at Zoro:

"Why aren't you running away? I never show mercy to the enemy!"

"But I don't kill those who have already admitted defeat. If you run away now, I can let you go!"

Upon hearing this...

Zoro forced himself to sit up, his voice trembling with pain as he said:

"I never turn my back to the enemy; a wound on my back is a swordsman's shame!"

Upon hearing this...

A slight tremor appeared in Hawkeye's eyes. He then straightened his body and looked up at Zoro.

A slight smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He was a swordsman who dared to challenge him.

They all looked down on it.

Because they were just trying to show off, and afterwards they all begged for mercy like dead dogs.

But this swordsman seems a little different today.

Think about this.

Hawkeye took a deep breath, and then drew the demon sword Yoru from behind him.

He looked at Zoro solemnly, his tone carrying a hint of pride, and said:

"This is the path you chose, so don't regret it!"

Upon hearing this...

A proud smile spread across Zoro's face.

He looked at Hawkeye.

Then he spread his arms, ready to wait for death.

Seeing this, Hawkeye frowned slightly, but his smile widened.

This is what swordsmen are like.

The necessary awareness.

then.

Hawkeye then raised the demon sword in his hand high.

Chapter 23: Declaring War on Hawkeye!

All I saw was...

A cloud of black gas swirled around the demon sword.

The surrounding sea was boiling.

Seeing this scene.

Luffy and Usopp both looked horrified.

With that, the sword struck.

Zoro is going to die.

"Hurry, hurry and save Zoro! Otherwise, Zoro will die!"

Usopp was so frightened that he jumped around, tears streaming down his face.

Usopp ran around crying, sometimes kneeling down and kowtowing, sometimes standing up and praying to the heavens.

This scene greatly impressed Luffy.

Although he knew it.

This was Zoro's own choice.

But he absolutely could not let his comrade die like that.

Thinking it over, Luffy decided to use the power of the Gum-Gum Fruit to pull Zoro back.

But before Luffy could even extend his arm...

Lei Luo then slapped Luffy's head down, the force of which smashed a hole in the deck.

"Lei Luo, what are you doing? Let me go!"

"If you don't let me go, Zoro will be dead!"

Luffy's body twisted and turned on the deck.

No matter how much Luffy struggled, Raylo remained unmoved.

He simply looked at Zoro with a serious expression.

Finally, he couldn't help but speak up:

"Luffy, do you want Zoro to carry this humiliation for the rest of his life?! Don't ruin someone else's dream!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy's pupils dimmed, and slowly, his twisting body relaxed.

Seeing that Luffy had stopped struggling, Lei Luo slowly released him.

next second.

Luffy pulled his head out with force.

But there was no intention to bring Zoro back.

He simply gripped the railing tightly, staring intently at Hawkeye as he slowly raised the demon sword, Yoru.

Luffy's heart was in his throat.

At this time.

The chefs at Barradi were also watching this scene nervously, but none of them dared to make a move.

Only Usopp was behind him, shouting and yelling incessantly.

just.

He's strange.

Why didn't these people go up and save Zoro?

"Hey guys, hurry up and save him! If you don't hurry, Zoro will really die!"

"Are you just going to watch your comrades die?!"

Lei Luo was annoyed by Usopp's constant chatter.

He threw a punch.

It punched Usopp right on the head, giving him a big bump.

Instantly.

The punch hurt so much that Usopp squatted on the ground, clutching his head and tears streaming down his face.

"Usopp, shut up!"

"Quietly witness this great historical moment!"

Lei Luo had barely finished speaking.

Hawkeye's demonic blade slashed down instantly.

A deep, bloody gash was slashed across Zoro's chest.
