Some things don't need to be said so clearly, because things are often only recognized after they happen.

Just like the cowardly Usopp~

When he begins to realize that he is one of the partners of this team, then when his partners are in real danger of life, he will transform into God's favorite and turn the tide!!!

But for Usopp now, he obviously wouldn't believe this.

Seeing that Luo Lan had also gone crazy, Usopp yelled at Luffy again: "Hey, hey, hey! Luffy, you are the captain, your words must be effective. Call him back quickly! He will die!"

Good guy~

Now I recognize Luffy as the captain...

However, Luffy looked towards Zoro calmly and said, "Zoro...his dream is to become the world's greatest swordsman! Now that the world's greatest swordsman is right in front of us, what reason do we have to stop him from challenging his dream?"

Look!!!

Luffy, who seems to be out of touch at ordinary times, always sees things more clearly than anyone else at critical moments!

Perhaps it is for this reason that he is born with the leadership qualities that attract partners!

"Are you two crazy?"

Usopp sat down on the ground, his heart sank.

In the coffin sailboat...

After hearing Zoro's challenge, Hawkeye finally stopped looking away as he did before.

This is not to say that Zoro has attracted his attention.

But it's because of his personal character.

Although he has been the world's greatest swordsman for many years, he never refuses the challenge of any swordsman.

Even if the person is a rookie, as long as he is a swordsman, he will accept the challenge.

He slowly stood up and stared at Zoro with his sharp eagle eyes: "Pathetic weakling..."

The coffin boat under his feet moved automatically without wind, as if it was finding its way automatically, and docked next to the large piece of hull debris where Zoro was.

Hawkeye jumped lightly and landed lightly.

He stood there with his arms folded, like a mountain, giving people the feeling of being at the pinnacle! !

"If you are also considered a swordsman, then there is no need for us to fight. The disparity in strength between you and me must be obvious at a glance!"

Hawkeye stood proudly, looking at Zoro with a gaze that looked down upon the world. "Does your courage to challenge me come from ambition... or from... ignorance?"

"This is my dream and also a promise I made to a close friend!"

Zoro didn't waste any words. He placed his right hand on the hilt of Wado Ichimonji and slowly pulled it out.

He looked at Hawkeye and said honestly, "To be honest, I didn't expect to meet you so soon..."

"Are you still determined to fight? There's no benefit..."

Hawkeye looked at Zoro and seemed to have a good impression of this young man.

After waiting for about three seconds and seeing that Zoro's fighting spirit had not diminished at all, Hawkeye understood Zoro's determination to challenge.

He took the cross pendant from his neck and pulled it gently, and a mini knife appeared in his hand.

"Hey, what do you mean?"

Zoro's expression turned bad and he asked in a cold voice.

Hawkeye calmly replied, "You are just a swordsman of some fame. I am not some stupid beast who would use all his strength just to catch a rabbit!"

Hawkeye thrust the knife forward and said, "I'm sorry, this is the smallest knife I can find..."

"..."

hateful! ! !

There should be a limit to looking down on others!!

This statement greatly irritated Zoro, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was about to get angry!!!

But suddenly, the image of Sasaki Kojiro every time he fought with him appeared in his mind.

Although Sasaki Kojiro never said it, his attitude towards every battle was to give it his all!!!

Even a lion fights a rabbit with all its might!!

This is a true portrayal of Sasaki Kojiro's battle!

During his long training, Zoro was also deeply influenced by this fighting attitude.

The next moment, Zoro calmed down.

"Oh? You adjusted your mindset so quickly?"

Feeling Zoro's emotional change, Hawkeye's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and even a hint of admiration.

Zoro stared at Hawkeye seriously and said, "I learned one thing while training with my teacher."

"What's the matter?" Hawkeye asked calmly.

"That's... the attitude towards battle!!"

As he spoke, Wado Ichimonji pointed forward, "Here it comes!"

brush!

Zoro slashed with his sword, without any extra frills, but the sword was full of power!

when!

Hawkeye casually thrust the knife forward and exchanged blows.

brush!

Zoro strikes again~

when!

Hawkeye blocked it casually.

Brush brush! ! !

Zoro kept slashing, and the accuracy of each strike never changed.

Ding ding ding ding ding!!!

The cross knife was like a divine object in Hawkeye's hands, accurately blocking every blow from Zoro.

However, unlike his initial disregard, Hawkeye's attitude towards Zoro has changed a little bit at this time.

Of course, it's just a little bit.

"Your attack accuracy hasn't changed at all. It seems you have a good master~"

While fighting, Hawkeye commented.

"Yes, my masters are all very good!"

Whether it is Koshiro or Sasaki Kojiro, they both have profound significance for Zoro's kendo.

"Masters? That's interesting~"

Hearing this, Hawkeye's mouth curled up slightly, and then he asked excitedly: "But, is this all you can do?"

Controlling the cross knife with one hand, Hawkeye raised his other hand at leisure and pinched Zoro with his index finger and thumb together.

hateful! ! !

Although Zoro tried his best to control his mentality.

But I have to say, facing a guy like Hawkeye who "I want to kill but I can't do anything about it" is really frustrating!!!

"Itto-ryu: Wooden Dummy!!——"

Zoro was furious, and the Wado Ichimonji in his hand suddenly changed direction. He raised both hands and chopped it down at Hawkeye from top to bottom.

This is a move that Zoro had developed during his training with the wooden man splitter.

stable! allow! ruthless!

All the strength was concentrated on one point of the blade, chopping towards the top of the opponent's wooden man's head.

"Oh!? Nice move!"

Hawkeye is an expert, and he can tell at a glance that this move is not some ordinary seductive trick~~

only……

"But that's all! Young man, let me teach you how vast this world is~~"

Hawkeye stood still, just reaching forward with the cross knife in his hand.

Dang! !

The sword of the cross knife accurately touched the edge of Zoro's sword!!!

“N…Nani!?”

Feeling the indescribable blocking force, Zoro's pupils suddenly opened!

"Hey, hey, hey! Impossible! With just such a small knife, the pirate hunter's attack was completely nullified!"

"Is this the strength of the world's greatest swordsman..."

"Too strong! He didn't even use that big sword."

……

Everyone present was shocked by Hawkeye's strength!

Originally everyone only knew that Hawkeye was very strong~

But when I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that Hawkeye was no longer just "very strong", but ridiculously strong!!!

This knife strike seemed to be just a simple clash of weapons.

But only Zoro himself understood how terrifying Hawkeye's sword was! !

His Ichidō Style, Wooden Mandapū, concentrates all his strength on the blade, destroying all enemies in his path with the unstoppable force of a single blow!

however……

The spot where Hawkeye's cross knife hit was exactly the point where Zoro's power hit the blade...

Zoro's sword strike was so fast that ordinary people could not react at all.

But Hawkeye not only found Zoro's power concentration point quickly in such a short time, but also hit him with ease!!!

And, judging from his appearance, he just attacked randomly~~~

For the first time since the war began, Zoro began to doubt himself...

gap……

Is it really that big...?

Do not……

I can't accept it!!!

"ah!!--"

Power surged from his arms, and Zoro let out an explosive roar.

He pushed hard, putting two steps between himself and Hawkeye.

This distance is exactly three meters~

"What? Looks like you still have a trump card?"

Hawkeye glanced at Zoro indifferently, but with some anticipation.
