After practicing swordsmanship with Ji Xing for a month, Abe felt that he had become a completely different person and could beat twenty of his past selves.
I don’t walk with my chest and back as before, my back is straight, my energy level has improved, my eyes are several times sharper than before, and I feel keenly that everyone looks at me differently.
In the past, I would not say it was disgust, at least it was disgust and dislike. Even after being beaten by Boss Holo several times and correcting his evil ways, there was not much change. But after persisting for a month, everyone looked at me in a friendly way.
stand up.
Especially a few days ago, he personally caught a thief who came from the town and returned the stolen Bailey to the owner. He felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction under the compliments.
It turns out that this is what a glorious village guard should do. Although I am still not up to the level of a peace officer like the boss, I can still do my part to maintain the security of Xiaochao Village!
Wearing a guard's uniform, he was walking on the street. His hands were holding knives, sometimes waving them in the air, practicing knife-free training. At the same time, he was observing the surroundings with sharp eyes like an eagle to see if anyone dared to cause trouble or planned to cause trouble in Xiaochao Village.
people.
Suddenly, he spotted a suspicious target coming towards him!
White fur black hat, black boots, black windbreaker, black mustache.
The look and style of this outfit are different from those of normal people, and the rate of turning heads is almost 100%.
The eyes of the two parties met in the air. Abe looked at them for a moment, then stepped aside to get out of the way, but he hummed in his heart: "The corners of his eyes were raised high, and his pupils were retracted to keep calm. According to the skill of recognizing people taught by the boss, this is in line with
He has a sinister look and a guilty conscience. This person needs to pay close attention to!'
Hawkeye walked past Abe: 'Guard? You recognized me, but you didn't seem to recognize me. There were some strange expressions and reactions, but your eyes were good. You seemed to be doing swordless training before, swordsman?'
He didn't care. In his eyes, there were only two kinds of people in this world, swordsmen and non-swordsmen. There were countless people who knew how to do swordsmanship. He soon came to a large grocery store selling daily necessities, and then his eyes showed a
Very unexpected.
There is also a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl doing knife training in the shop. Although she is not strong enough, her movements and posture are decent. More importantly, her appearance is somewhat familiar to Hawkeye.
'That portrait...the princess who lost her country?'
"Nata! We have guests, stop practicing!"
In the store, the fat aunt Kirsty, who brought her own swimming ring, noticed Hawkeye and came out: "Guest, what do you need?"
Nata also quickly sheathed the knife, wiped her sweat, ran out and waited aside.
"Can you deliver the goods? I need a lot of things." Hawkeye thought for a while and asked.
Aunt Kirsty's smile became more sincere: "For more than 100,000 beli, we can deliver the goods to anywhere on the island for free."
"Ten million beli." Hawkeye said: "Can you find a ship to send the things to Kraigana Island, which is two days' sail from this island?"
10 million?! Aunt Kirsty's eyes suddenly lit up as she had never done such a big deal in her life, and she vaguely felt that the place name was a little familiar, but Nata's face turned pale instantly.
"Krajana Island? You...you are..."
"Is she really the princess of the Kingdom of Sitskail? It turns out there are survivors in that kingdom."
Princess? This guy knows Nata?! Aunt Kirsty glared instantly and tried to protect Nata behind her, but Nata pulled her aside.
She pulled out the knife nervously, adjusted her breathing according to Ji Xing's instructions, and made a hostile gesture: "Who are you?!"
"Nata..." Aunt Kirsty said worriedly.
"Nata! Don't be afraid!" At this moment, another loud shout rang out not far away, and Abe jumped out with a knife, snorting: "This guy really has bad intentions! Nata, Aunt Kirsty, you guys
Go find Boss Jolo, I’ll subdue him first!”
"Brother Abe." Nata was delighted: "Someone has already gone, let me help you!"
Abe looked around and saw that there were indeed enthusiastic people running towards the old man's house. He smiled relaxedly, and everything was safe.
"No, Nata, it's enough to leave it to me. You can protect Aunt Kirsty!"
Hawkeye looked at Abe and said in a calm voice: "Young swordsman, I don't mean any harm. I just happened to see this girl's portrait to confirm her identity. In addition, don't point your blade at me casually.
When a famous swordsman shows his blade to another swordsman, it means the beginning of a fight to the death."
"Don't move!" Abe yelled, "Stand where you are! If you have any excuses about this mess, please tell Boss Jolo. If you dare to take another step, don't blame me for being rude!"
Hawkeye was silent for two seconds, turned around, looked at Nata and Kirsty, and walked into the grocery store: "I'm just here to buy something."
"I told you to stop moving!" Abe was furious and rushed towards him with a knife.
…
When Ji Xing arrived after receiving the news, Abe, who was pale and unconscious, was already lying in front of the grocery store. A long slanted knife edge connected from his chest to his waist. Blood stained his body red, and the blood around him was
Nata and Aunt Kirsty were hurriedly bandaging him to stop the bleeding.
"Holo!"
"Brother Sheriff!"
"You're finally here..." The surrounding villagers called out in surprise when they saw Ji Xing.
"Boss, boss..." Seeing Ji Xing, Abe also greeted Ji Xing with difficulty.
Ji Xing nodded appeasingly, took a look at Abe's injuries and said, "Has anyone gone to see a doctor?"
"Molan is gone." Someone from the surrounding villagers said angrily: "The man who injured Abe is still in Kirsty's shop!"
"Boss... cough, be careful..." Abe said with a pale face: "That man is very powerful, my knife was cut off by him... I, I may not be able to survive, I'm sorry for embarrassing you...
…”
Ji Xing smiled: "Your injury will only leave a scar at most, and it will take three cuts like this to almost kill you. And you are not ashamed of it. This scar will be your lifelong honor."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When he heard that he would not die, Abe's eyes lit up and his face turned rosy to the naked eye. He was startled again and asked strangely: "Honor?"
"Ah." Before Ji Xing came, he only heard that someone was making trouble in Aunt Kersty's shop. After he came, he found out who was making trouble.
The familiar clothes, black knife, and eye-catching appearance are unmistakable once you have seen them.
Ji Xing was surprised that the world's greatest swordsman appeared here, and he was a little surprised: "I said that I had vaguely heard of the Kingdom of Xitkeskeal, and it turned out that they were waiting for me here."
Choosing the Big Sword King at the beginning will send you to the vicinity of Ten Thousand Kingdoms, and choosing the Great Swordsman will make you a neighbor of Hawkeye at the beginning. This is very reasonable.
In the end, he couldn't escape the fate arranged by the Seven Star Pearl. In fact, every time he invaded the Seven Star Pearl, it would always be for his own good, no matter whether Ji Xing could bear it or not...for example, when he met Kaguya and Aizen by chance.
He looked around and said: "Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm. Next is the work of the Sheriff and the guards. Let's disperse first. Don't hurt you!"
The villagers had the courage to stand up for Abenata and the others, and they knew what was being said. They each sent a few words of worry and thanks before they dispersed.
Aunt Kirsty also moved away at Ji Xing's signal. Ji Xing said to Abe and Nata: "When I teach you how to practice swordsmanship, I should mention this person to you. The world's greatest swordsman, Eagle Eye."
Mihawk, the pinnacle of all swordsmen."
"...No. 1 in the world?" Abe was confused.
"Hawkeye Mihawk? That's him?!" Nata exclaimed: "I, I've heard of him..."
As she said that, her face turned pale, and Abe also hurriedly confirmed: "The best in the world? That means... that bastard, no, cough, the man who injured me is the strongest among all swordsmen? Could it be, is it better than
Boss Holo, are you still awesome?!"
"Of course." Ji Xing smiled and said, "I am the number one in the world, but I am not."
Abe's mouth opened wide in an instant, it was so bad!
Me, what have I done?
If he doesn’t understand anything else, how can he not understand the words “world’s number one”? Being the world’s number one in anything is a big deal, let alone the world’s greatest swordsman. He can’t even imagine what it’s like.
A strong man, but I...swung my sword at him?!
Why am I still alive?!
"Boss... I, I, I've caused trouble for you... You, please leave it alone..."
"It's me, it's because he recognized me, Brother Abe..." Nata said quickly.
"It's true that I have a bit of a headache." Ji Xing shook his head and said, "Tell me what happened first, Abe."
Abe was in a panic and spoke incoherently, but Nata quickly explained the whole cause and said sadly: "It was me who caused trouble for the village again..."
"It's okay." Ji Xing rubbed Nata's head: "We don't cause trouble, and we are not afraid of trouble. In this matter, except for being a little impulsive and rashly taking action without distinguishing the strength gap between the enemy and ourselves, Abe did nothing wrong. You are even more
No problem, Nata."
"Boss..." Abe was so moved that his face was filled with tears. I had provoked the world's greatest swordsman to the village, and the boss actually comforted me?
So gentle, Boss Holo!
"Stop the snot and tears, wipe them all over me and chop you to death." Ji Xing raised his eyebrows.
A chill pierced the top of his head, and Abe ducked back in fear. As a result, the wound cracked again, and he screamed in agony.
"Brother Abe!" Nata was in a hurry.
Ji Xing smiled and looked towards the grocery store.
He could wander around for half a month to avoid the trouble of conflict with Doflamingo, but now he suddenly faced Hawkeye, who was several times stronger. After the initial surprise and helplessness, he could see better.
There is no point in blaming Abe, not to mention that there is indeed no big problem with Abe's actions.
"Eagle Eye Mihawk, my little brother was just fulfilling his duty as a guard of Xiaochao Village when he swung his sword at you, and he was also worried about Nata. It's true that he was injured when he swung his sword at you, the world's greatest swordsman.
Probably, considering that he didn’t know he was injured again, can we forgive him for his recklessness?”
Abe immediately stopped mumbling and listened nervously with his eyes wide open... The boss is the boss, and he is very calm when talking to the world's greatest swordsman.
Eagle Eye walked out with a bag filled with daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, paper, etc. His eagle-like eyes circled Ji Xing's face and said, "Young swordsman, do you know me? His swordsmanship was taught by you.
The foundation is far from solid enough to be considered a qualified swordsman."
"He has just studied for a month." Ji Xing said.
"I see." Hawkeye nodded: "That's not bad... I stayed at the former site of the Kingdom of Sitskeal a few days ago. I thought that country had been completely destroyed. I didn't expect to see the princess of the lost country here.
I just confirmed it, and it seems that some unnecessary misunderstandings have occurred."
He belongs to the lawful neutral camp. He will cut down a bunch of pirates because his sleep is disturbed, and he will also condescend to give a few explanations because of unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts.
"We lived there..." Nata murmured softly, then reacted and said with some excitement: "Weren't the portraits of me and my father destroyed by the rebels?"
"It's a bit worn, but you can still see it. You can go and get it if you want." Hawkeye responded without giving up his address, and then looked at Ji Xing: "You are the Holo he calls, the security guard of this village.
Officer? I’m just here to buy things. Can you arrange a cargo ship for me, fill it with the goods I want, and send it to Kra Island?”
"Of course, as long as you give enough money, Auntie Kesty will arrange it." Ji Xing said with a smile.
"But there is one more thing. Although I may still be a little short of time, I have encountered everything I encountered. It would be a bit rude to hide deliberately, and it may also hinder the improvement of my swordsmanship and domineering. I will personally deliver the goods you want.
Over there, let’s spar with each other, the world’s greatest swordsman.”
Huh? Boss...are you going to challenge the world's greatest swordsman? Abe swallowed, and Nata was also startled: "Brother Sheriff..."
There is a huge gap between a small village police officer and the world's greatest swordsman. Even though Ji Xing had shown extraordinary strength, the two of them didn't think he had the strength to challenge the other.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hawkeye thought the same way, so he was silent for a few seconds and reached for the small pocket sword on the necklace on his chest, but at the same time, Ji Xing also put his hand
On the hilt of the sword, Hawkeye suddenly stopped and looked over again.
There is no way to see through the opponent's strength at a glance, and there is no combat power detector in the pirate world. Who is strong and who is weak can basically be identified through battles and achievements.
But Hawkeye had a vague feeling when Ji Xing held the handle of the knife and leaked his breath. If he only used the decorative knife, he would even lose!
This is a rare situation. Even if the world's greatest swordsman is holding a spoon, he can strike with a flying slash that breaks the mountain.
His eagle-like pupils seemed to see through Ji Xing, and he was silent for a long time.
"Young swordsman, what is your age?"
"18 years old." Ji Xing said.
Hawkeye reached back and grasped the handle of the black knife. The bag in his hand fell to the ground, he looked out and rushed towards Ji Xing!
He is not someone who is conceited about his status, or in other words, as long as he faces a swordsman who is recognized by him, he can do without a knife. It is normal for the world's greatest swordsman to take the initiative to attack the opponent, so in the original work, he only recognized Sauron and was able to kill him.
Long is so miserable.
He didn't sprint with all his strength, he didn't use any skills, he just ran, but with those sharp eyes, he was still like an eagle hunting for prey!
Nata opened her mouth slightly when she saw this, and Abe's face turned even paler: "Boss, be careful!"
Phew—the black knife with an outline of broken flowers and chaotic blades slashed through the air and howled in the wind, slashing hard towards Ji Xing!
Ji Xing used his backhand to clasp the knife, then drew it and slashed!
clang--
The blue-white blade collided with the black blade, and the sound echoed like the crisp call of an oriole!
In an instant, a strong wind blew, and Nata's black hair flew up. She quickly lowered her head to cover her face. At the moment she lowered her head, her vision seemed to be a little blurry, and she felt the shadows of the two knives change.
They are stacked one after another, and the vibrations are constant!
Actually, you read that right.
A powerful swordsman can often launch a series of powerful attacks through small movements and vibrations of the sword. This method is not very easy to use against evenly matched opponents, but it is the easiest way to test the strength of others.
When Hawkeye's wrist vibrated slightly, a stream of sword energy came out of the hole like a spiritual snake, stretching out to suppress Ji Xing's sword. Ji Xing looked calm and continued in the same way and with the same rhythm.
Crackling——
In the sound like the explosion of firecrackers, sparks from the collision of gold and iron in the square inch of space burst out, as bright as fireworks. After three seconds, the two knives rubbed against each other with a sharp and sharp sound, and then collided again.
Once, separate!
There was a distance of two knives between the two of them, and neither of them stepped back. Hawkeye's hat was not blown away by the strong wind, and Ji Xing's hairstyle did not become messy due to the collision.
The two pairs of eyes looked at each other.
It roared like thunder exploding.
As sharp as an eagle hunting.
For a moment, Hawkeye took two steps back, inserted the knife back into his back, raised a smile on his lips, and said: "It's amazing, when I was 18 years old, I was far from your level, but you are still hidden in this sea.
Such a young and powerful swordsman, a swordsman like you has always been unknown, hiding in a village like this and serving as a peace officer."
Nata, with messy hair, raised her head in confusion, and Abe felt that his injuries were healed.
What, what do you mean? My boss...
"Everyone has his own ambitions." Ji Xing replied: "I don't want to become famous so early and cause all kinds of trouble. And what's wrong with the Sheriff? Protecting a village is also very meaningful."
Hawkeye followed the path of mastering the sword for a lifetime, but as the world's greatest swordsman, he did not exclude other types of swordsmen, so he just nodded when he heard this, and then stepped back two steps.
Step by step, his tone is calm and solemn:
"I, the world's greatest swordsman, Joracol Mihawk, accept your challenge!"
