Ignoring Ace who was cursing there, Li Yan also fell down, landing just not far from Hawkeye.

Immediately, a powerful sword intent emanated from Mihawk's body, causing many people present to feel a stinging sensation as if their skin was being cut.

"I said, can you not be so impatient and let Esther go off first!"

"That's fine!"

After hearing this, Mihawk also looked at Ace and Matt who were not far away, then nodded and said.

And as he uttered these two words, the terrifying sword intent also dissipated, as if it had never appeared.

However, after feeling the powerful sword intent, Matt was slightly shocked.

He truly deserves to be the greatest swordsman in the world. No other master of swordsmanship he has ever encountered can compare with him, and they are even far behind him.

Fortunately, I didn't really fight him just now, otherwise I'm afraid both sides would suffer losses.

Matt couldn't help but think of this in his heart.

However, what he didn't know was that although the sword intent released by Mihawk just now was very powerful, it was still far from what he could do with his full strength.

As for a fight with Mihawk, both sides will lose, and everything is possible in the dream...

"Your Majesty the Shichibukai, Matt!"

"Originally, I thought that except for Hawkeye and Bear, all of you in the Shichibukai would take a detour when they saw me."

"But you are very courageous. Not only did you come to our door, you also dared to harm civilians and my lovely subordinates in the East China Sea."

"Have you been thinking about how you are going to die for a while?"

After saying a simple hello to Mihawk, Li Yan turned to look at Matt, his eyes instantly turned cold.

On the way here, he had already received a report from the head of the branch here. Two sailors were seriously injured by him. They are still in danger and are in a coma.

Plus...

The thirty or so civilians in the town were all tied up by the pirates and left there as hostages.

No matter which point it was, Li Yan's red line had been touched.

Therefore, even without the Shichibukai mission, Matt would still have to die today, even if the Five Old Stars came, it would be useless!

"Are you so sure that this kid can defeat me?"

"No, he is not your opponent yet!"

These words...

Not only Matt was confused after hearing this, but even Hawkeye was a little confused.

You knew Ace was no match for Matt, but you still let him go up and fight Matt.

Do you have a grudge against Ace?

"Then you asked this kid to die?"

"In front of me, are you absolutely capable of killing someone?"

"you..."

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense. Ace, I don't require you to beat him, just ten minutes. If you can't hold on, then according to the tradition of our eighteenth branch, you should be on Luffy's side.

You’ve heard of it, right?”

The tradition of the Eighteen Branches?

Ace was stunned for a moment.

But he soon remembered that when he first came to Branch 18, he saw Luffy spending several hours cleaning the toilet every day.

It's not just cleaning one toilet, but cleaning all the toilets on the main island and the two sub-islands...

Especially the test in Sol's ordinary training camp.

Gee, this is a large toilet used by thousands of people. Every time Ace goes in, he feels like his soul is being shocked. It's simply scarier than facing Lao Lei's overbearing look.

Ace asked Luffy at that time, why did he do this?

Luffy's answer was that this was the punishment he received because he failed to meet Li Yan's requirements, and this punishment was the tradition of the Eighteenth Branch...

Good guy, when you talk about the tradition of the eighteen branches, do you mean this?

Damn it, I won’t do this kind of thing!

Flames suddenly burst out of his eyes, and Ace stared at Matt, as if Matt had a grudge against him for killing his father.

As for this scene, in Matt's eyes, he was a little confused about the situation.

What's going on with this kid? Why did his whole body suddenly change and become like a ferocious beast?

"Nokigao, kill all the other pirates, and then protect the townspeople and leave!"

"Yes, General!"

"Don't even think about it!"

After hearing Li Yan's orders to Nuo Qi, Matt immediately became anxious.

Although he himself is not afraid of Nuo Qigao, he also understands that even if a person with the ability of the Thunder Fruit is not very strong, it is not something that his subordinates can deal with.

After all, Vice Captain Gio was stabbed by Hawkeye before, and now he is in a state where he only has half a breath left, and it would not be surprising to die at any time.

And those who are left...

Therefore, after seeing Nokigao start to make moves, Matt immediately wanted to intercept.

only...

"Your opponent is me, Fire Fist!"

"Shalan!"

As a last resort, Matt could only stop his movements and turn around to face the enemy.

On one side is a sand storm, and on the other is a huge fire fist.

The next moment, the two collided suddenly. The fire and sand were originally about the same size, but soon after the collision, the flame side was gradually suppressed.

If we really look at the nature of the two fruits, the Shasha fruit is actually the strongest type of burning fruit.

The main reason is that the melting point of sand is too high, reaching the range of 1600-1700 degrees.

Coupled with a large amount of sand covering, it can isolate the oxygen necessary for combustion.

And once you lose the support of oxygen, no matter how powerful your flame is, it can only be extinguished.

Therefore, the current scene occurred.

In terms of the level of development of Devil Fruits, Ace is definitely better at developing them than Matt.

After all, Ace has had the Shashao Fruit for more than half a year, while Matt has only had it for just a month.

However, even so, the inherent restraint of his abilities still caused Ace to be suppressed.

However, even though he was suppressed, it still blocked Matt's behavior.

"Thunder punishment from heaven!"

Just when Matt continued to activate his abilities, preparing to completely suppress Ace in one go.

A loud shout from Nuo Qi came to my ears.

Black thunder as thick as a bowl came raging like rain, hitting the pirates with incomparable precision.

Under Noki's powerful knowledge, every thunderbolt directly took away a pirate.

In just over ten seconds, nearly a hundred pirates present had all fallen to the ground, each one like charcoal, with no idea of ​​life or death.

After taking care of the pirates, Nokigao snapped his fingers with his right hand, and then suddenly jumped out one after another, and cut off all the ropes tied to the hostages as they swam and jumped.

"Damn it, damn it!"

All his men were wiped out in an instant, and even the hostages were released.

Matt's mentality suddenly collapsed.

At the moment, he didn't care whether he would fight Li Yan again after beating Ace, he immediately got excited and went all out.

Ace, who was already under a lot of pressure due to the conflicting fruits, felt even more uncomfortable after Matt took action with all his strength.

"Go to hell you!"

The output was increased, and the massive amount of sand directly wrapped the Fire Fist in the middle, and continued to shrink.

Although Ace wanted to resist, he was unable to do so because he was completely cut off from oxygen.

I could only watch helplessly as the huge fire fist I released...
Chapter completed!
