The Neptune type that was chopped into pieces shocked the eyes of countless onlookers.
But for the two people in the confrontation, it didn't cause any waves.
In the rain of blood, the two looked at each other from afar.
Tsk! Tsk!
The next moment, two sounds of breaking through the air sounded one after another, but after testing, the two people left the place at the same time, and their bodies flashed towards the opposite side.
Dang! Dang!
The sound of two metal clashes sounded in succession.
The broad and slender Black Blade was intercepted by Azakana's Sword and Wind Sword almost at the same time, causing sparks to fly.
The swords clashed with each other, and after a stalemate of less than ten seconds, Mihawk showed his inability to retreat.
What a domineering force!
His pupils shrank, and he decisively poured all his strength into his hands and arms, roaring and pressing down hard!
boom!
The ground beneath his feet immediately cracked open with fine cracks like spider webs, and Nuo Xia's figure was forcefully pressed down by a full dozen centimeters.
This is a rare advantage gained by Mihawk's sudden appearance, but it seems to be of little use to the overall situation.
Because in the next second, Nuo Xia had already used the ground to easily remove the aftermath of this force.
"Be careful."
Nuo Xia reminded with a chuckle, got rid of Heidaoye, and took advantage of the situation to bully him and rush in. With a flick of his wrist, the two swords crossed and struck out, heading straight for Mihawk's chest!
"So fast!"
There was a blur of sword shadows in front of him, Mihawk's expression immediately changed, and his eyes were horrified——
If he had realized the difference in strength in the previous confrontation.
So from this sword, he completely realized how terrifying Nuo Xia's suppression power was in terms of the speed of the sword!
It’s too late to stop it!
Rich combat experience allowed Mihawk to make the most correct decision at this moment.
The moment the sword blade struck, his body bent backwards at a weird angle of ninety degrees.
Kankan dodged the sword's deflection and swept across it, and at the same time, he made a backhand slash and swept towards Nuo Xia's waist and abdomen.
Tsk!
This counterattack sword was also very fast. Nuo Xia immediately pulled back and avoided the aftermath of the shock of the sword energy by moving flexibly. In an instant, he was more than ten meters away from Mihawk.
On Mihawk's side, although he slashed the air with two consecutive swords, he still got a chance to breathe. He quickly took the opportunity to stand upright with a carp and regain his balance.
The next moment.
The two of them raised their heads at the same time, looked at each other in the air, and then left the place again. In a flash, they rushed towards the opposite side!
The entire island collapsed in an instant from the center, and crazily spread to all sides.
And where the two people's figures intersect, the light and shadow of swords and swords intersect, so fast that it is dizzying.
The sailors watching on the warship in the distance couldn't tell whether they were seeing the real body or the afterimages of the two sides left in their eyes a second ago.
clang!
The sparks caused by the intersection of sword blades are as continuous as the drizzle in late spring.
The sound of explosions in the air that broke the sound barrier was even more obscured, making this duel even more tense and exciting.
————-
"The fight was so intense..."
On the warship, there was a young sailor who had just joined the army. He couldn't help but murmured, "If this continues, who will win?"
"What are you talking about? You idiot, you have no sense at all!"
A few older sailors immediately stood next to them, laughing and scolding, "Of course it's Lieutenant General Nuoxia. Don't look at the lively fight between them. You won't be able to tell the difference for a while. In fact, it's the Lieutenant General who has been giving in."
That’s all!”
"That's right."
A naval lieutenant colonel also patted the kid on the shoulder and said with a smile, "The swordsman named Hawkeye is indeed very strong, but don't forget who his opponent is..."
"This battle, from the beginning, was just the guidance of the seniors to the juniors. There is no suspense about the outcome."
Is that what happened?
The young sailor was confused and was about to ask curious questions when he suddenly noticed that the battle situation in the distance seemed to have changed. His eyes lit up and he quickly looked away...
————
boom!
Accompanied by a deafening explosion, two figures passing by each other separated in mid-air, landing on both ends of the collapsed island.
"Ahem..."
Mihawk was in ragged clothes and his body was already covered in scars. He was breathing heavily, looking at Noxia who was almost unscathed across from him, and mocking himself helplessly:
"It's really... it's miserable to be suppressed..."
He stood up with the support of the black knife and wiped away the blood that overflowed from the corner of his mouth. He shook his head and soon his eyes became bright again. He raised his head and said in a low voice to Nuo Xia:
"Please be careful next time, Your Excellency Nuo Xia, I will do my best and make a last ditch effort!"
"Um."
Nuo Xia nodded slightly to show that he understood.
The simple conversation ended, and Hawkeye Mihawk clenched the Black Blade Night in his hand again.
His sharp eyes were fixed on Xia Nuo, and while he slowly raised the sword, his whole personality suddenly changed.
Like a ferocious beast breaking out of its cage in the dark night, its whole body exudes a terrifying aura that seeks to devour others.
"cut!"
Accompanied by a deep and powerful magnetic voice.
Hawkeye's body instantly swept back like black lightning.
And at the moment when he stepped on it with force, Heidaoye, who was raised high and whose momentum had been condensed to the extreme, suddenly slashed forward at an incredible speed!
Boom!
The sword energy roared out, and thunder suddenly broke out in the night sky. Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps the sword energy triggered thunderclouds in advance, and the sky suddenly started pouring rain!
Wow!
Nuo Xia, who was several hundred meters away, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly after feeling the terrifying power contained in the sword coming towards him.
"The terrifying sword energy is finally a bit challenging..."
Nuo Xia murmured in a low voice, but there was a hint of excitement in his tone.
The stern look in his eyes flashed away, and he suddenly slashed his swords. The violent sword intent that had been accumulated for a long time completely exploded at this moment!
"Double Swords Hua Slash·Cho Jade Cut!"
The moment the two swords fell, the surrounding void suddenly distorted, and even the light dimmed.
And the air within a few hundred meters of radius was instantly sucked out, wrapped in a heart-stopping aura of death, rushing towards the sword energy slashed by Eagle Eye in a mighty manner!
boom!
Two magnificent and terrifying sword energy collided with each other on the waves, and dozens of huge water columns over a hundred meters high suddenly exploded in the entire sea area.
And the falling rainstorm suddenly reversed its direction at this moment and flew back toward the clouds!
The scene is so majestic and shocking.
…………
I don't know how long it took.
The terrifying storm caused by the collision of sword energies finally gradually dissipated.
Looking from a distance, the sea area near the battlefield looked as if it had been ravaged by the apocalypse, with fish carcasses accidentally involved everywhere.
In the night sky, the thunder gradually died down, and thick clouds were faintly visible. At this moment, a huge ravine appeared, stretching far to the end of the sky, which made people tremble.
Under the moonlight.
Nuoxia sheathed the sword of Azakana, walked on the moon, and floated on the top of the waves.
Mihawk's face was pale and bloodless. He half-knelt on one knee on a piece of gravel, supported by Heidaoye in front of him. His whole body was still trembling slightly.
"That's it for now."
Nuo Xia smiled slightly, sheathed his swords, and stretched out his right hand towards him, "It's time to end, Mihawk."
"..."
Looking at the stretched out hand, Mihawk had a rather complicated expression. After being silent for a moment, he still held Nuo Xia's palm and stood up straight.
"Indeed...it's all over." He murmured.
The difference is really too big.
Mihawk sighed in his heart. He had obviously tried his best from the beginning, but until the end, he was unable to force out Mr. Nosha's trump card.
Regardless of their basic physical qualities or their attainments in swordsmanship, the two of them are not on the same level at all.
What if this battle is not a friendly sparring between swordsmen, but a real fight to the death?
I'm afraid that in less than half an hour, I would have been completely defeated and turned into a dead soul under those two swords...
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Nuo Xia."
He first sighed softly and put Heidaoye back behind his back, then raised his head again and looked directly into Nuo Xia's eyes:
"Although I am very grateful that you can take the time to give me some advice this time, as a swordsman, it is impossible for a single failure to defeat your fighting spirit. Therefore, after leaving this time, I will work harder.
Practice and practice and improve your sword skills."
"I hope that when I meet you next time, I won't need you to hold back, and I will be qualified to fight with you until the last moment."
Mihawk's attitude change was quite subtle.
When we met before, although his tone was very polite and respectful, he still had a touch of arrogance, and he also addressed Nuo Xia as "you".
But now it has become "you".
Obviously, after this discussion, Mihawk was completely convinced of Noxia's swordsmanship.
"I'm looking forward to that day."
Nuo Xia saw all this and smiled leisurely.
The future Hawkeye is known as the world's greatest swordsman, and can even fight the red-haired one of the Four Emperors. He is almost recognized as the strongest Shichibukai, and his potential is naturally infinite and terrifying.
But why should he care too much?
Hawkeye is young, but he himself is even younger. When they meet again ten or twenty years later, it will be considered good if Hawkeye can maintain the gap today, let alone catch up with him.
As for the title of the world's greatest swordsman.
It is destined that from the beginning to the end, it will only be him, Romanov Nosha, Mihawk, the eagle eye, and Bista, the foil sword who is also a great swordsman in the double-sword style. In the end, they can only be companions and foils.
…
The turbulent sea gradually calmed down.
Nuo Xia also returned to the warship and watched Hawkeye get on the boat. After taking off his hat and giving a slight salute, he sat down with his legs crossed and let the wooden board under him continue to drift away with the waves...
Gradually it turned into a small black dot that was invisible in the sight.
Wow, my legs are numb even when I stand, but I still can’t wait for the scene of Hawkeye rowing a boat at night with a black knife.
That guy was too proud. Even though the sea breeze had blown his course, he still insisted on saving face and suffering, and refused to lose his grace.
No wonder he chased Creek all the way to the East China Sea. Nuo Xia sighed regretfully and walked towards the restaurant under the admiring eyes of the surrounding sailors.
The place in the West Sea was really not challenging. He had not fought seriously for a long time, but this time he was just able to get over it. He felt refreshed and had a great appetite, and he managed to make six more bowls of rice than usual.
After he had eaten and drank enough, he returned to the training room and continued to practice hard day and night.
There were no more disturbances in the subsequent voyage. More than ten days passed in a flash, and the warship finally arrived at the headquarters smoothly and sailed into the port of Marineland.
It was already dark at this time, and the headquarters fortress building was dimly lit, so it was obviously not suitable to go to work at this time.
Nuo Xia thought for a while and decided to go home and have a good sleep first, and wait until early tomorrow morning to report to Marshal Kong.
As for this "going home"...
He did not receive housing in the headquarters, and it was impossible to go to the elite camp to squeeze into the student dormitory, so he naturally went to Taotu's home and opened the door with the key that Little Rabbit gave him.
After washing up, I lay down on Little Rabbit's comfortable and soft big bed, sniffing the familiar fragrance coming from between the pillows and quilts. The fatigue from the long journey suddenly dissipated a lot.
Nuo Xia groaned comfortably, opened the system panel habitually, and after glancing at his properties, he suddenly discovered that there was this extra line of reminder in the message bar:
[Belmeier’s relationship has been established for one year]
[You have received an additional reward for year-end sign-in: A-level gift box*1]
…
"It's been a full year..."
Nuo Xia was slightly startled. He glanced at the extra A-grade gift box in the backpack column, and then glanced at the other two gift boxes above, his eyes flickering slightly.
"In this way, you will get all three gift boxes."
After the relationship is established, he will receive a fixed reward of 20,000 points every month he signs in. This is one of the sustainable and reliable sources of his points growth in the past.
When the term expires for one year, you will receive an additional A-level gift box. Therefore, before today, the gift boxes for Taotu and Shia have been distributed to their accounts one after another.
But Nuo Xia has been holding back and not opening it.
Firstly, it is because his expectations for A-class gift boxes are not as strong as those for S-class gift boxes.
Secondly, out of some small evil interest, I wanted to wait until all the three girlfriends’ rewards were collected before they could open the box together.
Triple unboxing, triple happiness, and a comparison to see who produced the gift box, the reward will be more generous.
"Then, let's go in order, starting with Shia's."
After clicking on Shia's gift box, the familiar blue dice appeared, and the words marked on each side were the same.
Attribute points, consumables, weapons, skill scrolls, defensive items, and eggs.
Although it was only an A-grade gift box, there was still a sense of ritual about unboxing. Nuo Xia rubbed her hands, prayed silently in her heart, and shouted:
"Open it for me!"
[Grade A gift box, opening, please wait]
The blue dice began to spin rapidly, and Nuo Xia watched it motionless.
[End of roll point]
[Type of reward in this gift box: Skill Scroll]
The golden light dissipated, and something like an ancient scroll appeared in front of me. At the same time, the corresponding text box also appeared in time:
[You have gained a new skill: Mirror Flower, Water Moon]
