"Please give me a reasonable explanation as to why you announced that news!"
Just when Wulaoxing was joking, a man opened the door regardless of the guards' obstruction, broke into the conference room, and said to Wulaoxing in a bad tone, with a hint of reproach in his words.
means.
When this person broke in, the five old stars also stopped talking to each other, followed the direction of the sound, and stared at him.
I saw that this man was wearing a dark red suit, a corsage, and a sea jun hat on his head. Under the brim, his rough and resolute silhouette was also revealed, with the masculinity of an iron-blooded soldier. Behind him,
He was wearing General Haijun's cape with the word "Justice" printed on it, and he was holding a cigar in his mouth, puffing out smoke, and curls of smoke rising from it.
When he walked in, he carried strong pressure and gave people an extraordinary feeling.
This man is none other than Akainu, who is known as the most powerful sea jun. He is the absolute c-ranking among the three generals. He is also a hard-line sea jun strongman who has made countless sea lords run away. He should not be underestimated.
.
"Akainu, watch your tone!"
The man with the mustache among the Five Old Stars couldn't help but darken his face after hearing this, and warned Akainu.
You must know that although Akainu is the strongest combat force in the Marine Corps headquarters, he is just a subordinate under the World Government. Above him are Marshal Sengoku, and the Sea, Land and Air Commander Cyborg Kong.
It is worth mentioning that the Five Old Stars are his immediate superiors who are two levels above him, but even under such circumstances, Akainu dared to contradict them rudely, which naturally made the Five Old Stars extremely unhappy.
"Why do you still have to make this decision without authorization? Do you mean that we have to make such a huge compromise and concession to a sea zei? If word spreads, wouldn't it be ridiculed by everyone in the world? Who else will do it?
Take the majesty of our headquarters into consideration!"
Akainu couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and continued to refute.
They had had many discussions before on how to deal with Li Xiao, and every time when the Five Old Stars proposed to win over Li Xiao, Akainu opposed it with all his strength.
Because he knows that Li Xiao is really too dangerous. If he is really banned from the Shichibukai, it will undoubtedly be a time bomb that may bring serious consequences at any time.
However, in the end, the Five Old Stars ignored his firm opposition and announced to the world the appointment of the Shichibukai. This was something Akainu could not accept.
As the strongest combat force in the Haijun headquarters, Akainu has been adhering to absolute justice for so many years and does not allow a trace of evil to exist. For him, those unruly Shenron adventure groups are full of dangers, and they are also
He is the representative of absolute evil, so he does not allow such evil to join this camp, otherwise he would not be complicit.
But Wulaoxing announced this decision in front of everyone.
In this way, what else can Akainu and the others do to scare those pirates? I'm afraid they will follow Li Xiao's example and confront the world's government and headquarters. Who knows, there won't be a second one.
The third Li Xiao, this is simply endless troubles.
…
…
"Akainu, it's not your turn to criticize us here. In the final analysis, you are just our vassals. When will it be your turn to criticize our decisions? You'd better straighten yourself out.
Attitude and position, you just need to fulfill your responsibilities!"
The bald old man slammed the table, stood up, pointed at Akainu's nose, and said angrily.
"Aren't you just afraid of the zombie army? At worst, we will gather all our combat power, launch the demon-slaying order, and directly level the terrifying three-masted sailing ship and Skull Island. As long as we make up our minds to attack, Skull Island will be the next step.
An O’Hara!”
Facing the eyes of the five old stars, Akainu did not retreat and insisted on his opinion and said in a deep voice.
"Do you think we haven't thought of this method? However, according to the news from the CP, the cunning Li Xiao has already dispersed their zombie army in all corners of the world.
Ya Island, the Capital of the Seven Waters, the West Sea, the North Sea, Alabasta, Punk Hassad, etc., all have his hidden zombie troops. Once we attack the Skull Island, then those zombie legions,
They will respond from all over the place and swarm out, just like a virus, showing the tendency to spread."
"You must have heard Kizaru tell you about the power of zombies. No matter who is bitten by that zombie, they will be infected and mutate into new zombies. Can you imagine the endless tide of zombies, drowning them?
The shocking scene coming? Do you have to see the world destroyed to be happy?!"
The blond man added.
"This insidious guy actually has such a careful plan. He must have planned it a long time ago. When we were in the Magic Triangle, we should have completely wiped him out. Otherwise, it would not have evolved into what it is today.
to the extent.”
Akainu pinched out the half-smoked cigar in his hand, threw it to the ground, then raised his foot and stepped on it hard, making a dull sound.
At the same time, he clenched his fists and made a crackling sound like bones rubbing against each other. In his eyes, there seemed to be anger about to burst out, and he looked extremely horrified!
Such a momentum exploded, like a huge stone. On the calm lake surface, there was a huge ripple, which spread out, causing the expression of the five old stars to change.
Although Akainu is their subordinate, Akainu's combat power is extremely terrifying. Looking at the entire world, I am afraid that only the Warring States Period has the power to fight her.
Therefore, when facing Akainu, the Five Old Stars and others were a bit wary.
…
…
The two sides are at a stalemate, and there is a sense that the talks are about to collapse.
The atmosphere at the scene also became solemn.
After a while, it seemed that he was forced by the intense pressure brought by Akainu.
The old man wearing a flat hat took the initiative to stand up, walked to Akainu, patted the other person's shoulder, and said to comfort him: "Akainu, don't worry, the world government and the headquarters will both prosper and suffer.
Of course we will not make a decision that is harmful to our headquarters, and wooing Li Xiao is just a delaying tactic."
"We have issued an urgent order for Vegapunk to develop a serum that can dissolve zombie poison based on several infected zombie corpses and the components in the virus."
"However, this kind of serum is difficult to develop. It requires a process and cannot be achieved overnight. Therefore, what we have to do at the moment is to temporarily stabilize Li Xiao and delay as much time as possible. As soon as the corpse serum is produced,
Once we come out, we will have no worries and defeat Li Xiao in one fell swoop. In this way, you should be able to understand our plan, right?"
The man in the flat hat glanced at Akainu, and after pondering for a moment, he said meaningfully.
This is a strategy negotiated by the staff of Wulaoxing and the World Government. It is a top-level secret. Only Wulaoxing, Cyborg Kong, Marshal Warring States, and a few Tianlong people know about it.
Logically speaking, Akainu had no right to know such a high-level secret, but in order to appease Akainu's anger, the man with the flat hat also revealed the plan to the other party, so that he could have some comparison in his mind.
"Is that really true?"
Akainu couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, showing a rather surprised expression, and immediately looked at the other four people, as if he wanted to confirm this result from them.
"Yes, this is our mutual decision, but because of permission issues, we haven't told you for a long time."
One of them, a tall old man with long beard and hair, nodded and replied unequivocally that even Aokiji and Kizaru didn't know about this secret, and Akainu was the only one among the generals who knew about it.
One, it can be said that this is already a very high salary.
"Humph, since you have formulated this plan, then I hope to implement it completely, otherwise, I will personally kill Li Xiao when the time comes."
Akainu glanced around at the five old stars present, snorted coldly, and then slammed the door and left.
After Akainu left, the slightly nervous Five Old Star let out a long sigh of relief.
"Akainu, relying on his position in the Haijun headquarters, is really becoming more and more arrogant."
Watching Akainu's leaving figure, the bald old man angrily kicked over the coffee table in front of him and said angrily.
"Forget it, Akainu is a hardliner with amazing iron-blooded skills. This department needs a hero like this who can turn the tide."
The man with a flat hat on the side offered words of advice.
"By the way, the arrangements for the Shichibukai Conference and Ace's execution are almost complete, right?"
"Well, I've already given the instructions, just follow the steps."
"Let's take one last look at Marine Fando. Soon, the wave of the new world will sweep over!" Wulaoxing looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the azure sea not far away, and couldn't help but sigh.
said.
Perhaps, in the near future, the situation of the entire world will be rewritten. Under the general trend, no one can stop it.
…
…
First, Qing Pheasant visited, and then Wulao Xing had a phone call. Then, the envoys from the two parties also contacted each other and conveyed their respective demands and ideas.
After many efforts, the unmeltable ice between Skull Island and the world's government has finally shown a easing trend.
Finally, half a month later, the Holy Land of Marie Gioia was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder.
On this day, early in the morning, there were many people waiting at the port of Marigio. Their eyes glanced through the sea into the distance from time to time, showing anxious and uneasy expressions.
Among them were personnel from the World Government, soldiers from the Marine Corps Headquarters, some residents of Mariejoia who were curious and came specially to watch, and of course there were bands carrying musical instruments, etc., and the leader was Marshal Sengoku.
, his mission is to welcome Li Xiao’s arrival here.
Under the pressure of Wulaoxing, in order to show sufficient respect and welcome to Li Xiao, the Warring States Period was specially ordered to lead his subordinates to hold a welcome ceremony here.
As time passed, it was almost eight or nine o'clock in the morning. Under everyone's gaze, a ship with a dragon pattern on it cut through the waves and sailed over from far to near.
A figure stood at the bow of the ship with his hands behind his back.
This man is dressed in white, simple and close-fitting. Looking at him from a distance, he gives people the feeling of being washed away. Behind him are the burly Qianbalu, who looks like an iron tower, and...
The elder Rogel had eight arms, and the two of them had respectful expressions on their faces.
Seeing the scene in front of them, many people couldn't help but scream in surprise.
"Look, they're coming."
"Li Xiao is really here, isn't he afraid that this is the Hongmen Banquet?"
"Why did he bring two guards?"
"This is where his confidence lies. He has no fear. He seems to have determined that we will not attack him."
"Which one next to him is the Corpse King? One of them actually has eight arms. It's so weird. Could it be him?"
"No, the Zombie King seems to be a mysterious man with a pale face and his whole body wrapped in black mist. He is the second person next to Li Xiao. It is said that he is also a zombie, but he has evolved to a very high level of the Zombie King. He
The reason why I didn’t come is probably because I was leading the zombies to support us from the rear just in case something unexpected happened.”
Many people were whispering and discussing.
In fact, everyone was quite surprised by Li Xiao's arrival, and they didn't even expect it.
Because the conflict between Li Xiao and the world government has been very deep, almost to the point of incompatibility, and this alliance is probably for their own interests. Everyone took a step back and temporarily reached a reconciliation or even cooperation, but
This does not mean that there is no resentment on both sides.
Many people speculated whether this was a trap set by the world's government, in order to lure Li Xiao into a jar and kill him in a sneak attack.
But even so, Li Xiao still dared to go to the meeting alone. Seeing this scene, many people had expressions of surprise on their faces.
It can be said that such courage and courage are unparalleled by ordinary people. This is what many people think in their hearts.
Soon, the ship anchored and slowed down. Finally, the Shenlong finally docked slowly in front of the port.
Under the attention of everyone, Li Xiao slowly walked down from the deck with Jianbalu and Rogel, and when he stepped onto the ground of Mary Joa.
The bands immediately started playing welcoming music, with loud gongs and drums, firecrackers blasting, and balloons and ribbons flying. The scene looked extremely lively.
…
…
In such a lively ceremony, Marshal Warring States also had a smile on his face. He walked over from the crowd and held out his hand to Li Xiao: "Li Xiao, Supernova, Lord of Skull Island, I have long admired your name.
Ah, I have heard of your name a long time ago."
Warring States lost his majestic face and put on a hypocritical expression, pretending to be very enthusiastic. Although both sides had their own agendas and plans, under the gaze of so many people,
Pretending is still very necessary.
"Both and each other, Yuan Shuai of the Warring States Period is still strong and strong."
Li Xiao shook hands with the other party symbolically, then pulled it back, smiling half-smilingly.
Although Warring States is nearly sixty years old, his hand strength is not small, and he looks like his sword is still young.
"Please, in order to welcome your arrival, the staff of World Government, colleagues of Kaijun and Shichibukai have been waiting for a long time."
After some simple greetings, Warring States proposed to Li Xiao.
After all, today's business is very important. Not only is it necessary to carry out the ceremony of being enshrined, but we also need to discuss together how to deal with the deployment of the Whitebeard Adventure Group when executing Ace, which is of great significance.
"Well, then I'll ask Yuan Shuai to lead the way."
Li Xiao nodded and said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go this way."
Warring States led the way and accompanied Li Xiao to the place where the meeting was held.
Jambaru and Rogel, on the other hand, acted as loyal guards and followed behind them step by step.
After all, their mission this time was to protect Li Xiao's safety. Moreover, when they arrived at the Holy Land of Mariejoia, their nerves were tense, as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and they were highly vigilant.
, could not slack off for a moment, but Li Xiao had a calm expression on his face, as if he was not worried at all.
The people around him looked at Li Xiao with different expressions, some were resentful, some were contemptuous, some were envious, and some were admired. It can be said that everyone viewed Li Xiao in a very complicated way.
There is no doubt that everyone loves and hates such a hero who has recently risen above the sea.
Li Xiao ignored the complicated gazes of others and focused on Marie Joa, the holy land known as the center of the world.
Looking around, on both sides of the road, there are well-equipped and capable soldiers lined up on both sides.
As a gathering area for nobles and the seat of the world government, it must be said that this place is still very grand. Whether it is a work building or a leisure and residential area, the houses are very luxurious and chic, giving off a luxurious look.
.
The streets are also very clean and spotless. People are luxuriously dressed, well-dressed, and elegant. Everyone seems to pay great attention to their appearance.
In addition, the guards here are also very strict, with one post every ten steps and one sentry every hundred steps. A perfect defensive arrangement is also well arranged along the coast, surrounding this place.
The iron-barrel-like defense can be said to be watertight.
"No wonder, at that time, nineteen families would move to this place. The conditions here are indeed very superior." Seeing this scene, Li Xiao also sighed slightly and said.
Along with the long journey in the movie world, Li Xiao's cognitive ability has also been greatly improved. When facing some problems, he should not look at them one-sidedly, but should think dialectically from multiple angles.
The reason why the world government has been able to stand at the top of the world for such a long time is that although it breeds a lot of darkness and corruption, it must have its merits, and its handling of some planning aspects is still very
of decency.
If there is a chance in the future, I can try it on Skull Island, Li Xiao said secretly in his heart.
…
…
Accompanied by Sengoku, we followed a road paved with strange sea stones and rode the warm sea breeze, and finally arrived at the location where the Shichibukai Conference was held.
It is very spacious, covering an area of half an acre. The ground is covered with a beautiful and smooth red carpet, and there are many famous paintings hanging on the walls. The material here is made of very rare sea stones, and there are
Hanging lamps emit soft light, making the place very solemn and solemn.
In the middle, there is a huge round table, and on the wall directly in front, there is a huge TV screen.
At this moment, there were already a lot of people sitting next to the round table. Li Xiao glanced around and saw Barsoomia Xiong, the Empress, Doflamingo and others, as well as Lieutenant General He, such as Haijun, and others.
Aokiji, Akainu and others were already there, and even Hawkeye, who was often late, had already taken his seat at this time.
Beside the round table, there is another empty chair. Obviously, this is the seat reserved for Li Xiao.
When Li Xiao and Zhan Guo walked into the conference room, they were like magnets, attracting the attention of everyone present.
Aokiji and Akainu both arrived, just to avoid unnecessary embarrassment. Li Xiao's defeated men, Kizaru, did not show up, and no Tianlong people participated. It seemed that they were all deliberately avoiding danger. After all, Li Xiao
There were quite a few conflicts with Kizaru and the Celestial Dragons.
The rest of the people were also very sensible and avoided this meeting. It can be said that they felt aggrieved and could not express their suffering.
On the left hand side of the Warring States Period, General Akainu clasped his hands on his chest, sitting there with a golden sword, his face was livid, but his face looked very unhappy. You don't need to ask, you know why.
Although Zhongjiang He is old, his aura is not weak. He is sitting next to the deputy of the Warring States Period, his face is calm and unfathomable.
"Tsk tsk, isn't this Li Xiao, who has recently become the most powerful person on the Great Line, and is so famous that almost everyone knows you? You are so powerful, so many of us are waiting for you."
Doflamingo licked his lips and said with a sinister smile.
"Haha, who am I? It turns out to be Doflamingo. Why, you haven't taken care of the business at the auction house recently. If you come here for a meeting, won't you delay your financial opportunities?"
Li Xiao touched his nose and said tit for tat.
"Damn guy, even his words are so harsh. He is indeed a troublesome guy. However, I advise you not to be too arrogant, otherwise you will suffer."
Doflamingo's face darkened and he stood up and said.
"I, Li Xiao, do what I do, why do I need others to interfere?! If you want to take action, I will be with you at any time. If you have the ability, just come over now."
Li Xiao shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent expression. Anyway, his third system mission was to kill Doflamingo.
If the other party wanted to take action, then Li Xiao wouldn't mind at all and would speed up the task as quickly as possible!
Doflamingo's fingers spread out strangely, making a strange gesture. Thin threads spread out from his fingertips, twisting around his body, like countless poisonous snakes raising their heads and sticking out their tongues.
It will swoop in at any time.
Li Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank, and the aura on his body quickly rose. The Gang Qi attached to his body surface was like substance, and his whole person was as if he was supporting a huge furnace. The true energy was powerful and extremely hot.
As soon as they finished speaking, both Li Xiao and Doflamingo burst out with an awe-inspiring fighting spirit, and the atmosphere became tense. Even the air seemed to become stagnant, as if
It's like you would make a move with two people at any time.
Everyone at the scene also became nervous.
If these two people want to take action, I am afraid that the Shichibukai meeting site will be destroyed. By then, will they have to sit in the open air for the meeting?!
"Interesting, they are indeed as tough as the rumors say. The world's government will probably have a headache in the future. Are they controlling Li Xiao, or are they being controlled by Li Xiao in turn?"
After hearing Li Xiao's words, Mihawk, who had his legs crossed on the table, turned slightly sideways, his eyes lit up, and he immediately showed a look of interest, a pair of
His eyes were looking at Li Xiao's body intentionally or unintentionally.
"Why, are you planning to let the world go wild?"
Akainu said in a deep voice, with a hint of threat in his words.
"Hey, after the meeting, can you please break up early? I'm already a little sleepy."
Qing Zhi yawned, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and said lazily.
The reactions between Akainu and Aokiji form a very sharp contrast, which seems to indicate that they will have different paths in life in the future.
"Tsk, tsk, what a handsome man, it actually makes my heart beat wildly."
Feeling the powerful aura exuding from Li Xiao, Empress Hancock's beautiful and delicate face immediately blushed, her beautiful eyes blinked from time to time, and even her own heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
, there’s a feeling of being in love for the first time.
Hancock was originally a little disgusted with the Shichibukai meeting, but because she was interested in Li Xiao, she also chose to come to Mary Joa. When she saw Li Xiao in person, she felt that the trip was worthwhile.
.
It has to be said that Li Xiao's face is very handsome, and after a lot of tempering, it has a deep feeling that has washed away all the beauty. Unknowingly, it adds a charming charm to him.
With his temperament and blessings from various names, there are probably very few people in this world who can resist his charm.
They all say that men are sexy, but what they don’t know is that if women see the opposite sex that they really like and are extremely charming, they will definitely be very excited. There is no doubt that Li Xiao is such an extremely charming person.
exists.
"Hancock, this is not like your usual style. Aren't everyone else succumbing to your beauty? Why is it the other way around today?"
Bartholomew Bear, with his height of nearly seven meters, was the tallest among everyone present. Even when he was sitting there, his head almost reached the ceiling.
He is usually a dull and taciturn person, but when he saw Hancock's rarely seen nymphomaniac appearance, he started to complain speechlessly.
"It seems that the king has lost his composure."
After Hancock wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, he consciously restrained himself.
"Ahem, I have summoned everyone here today to hold an important meeting. Therefore, I still hope that everyone can put the overall situation first and maintain appropriate restraint!"
Seeing the tense situation at the scene, the gun could go off at any time.
If news of internal strife breaks out during the Shichibukai Conference, which is attracting world attention, then the Kaijun headquarters and even the world's government will be really disgraced. From now on, they will not be able to hold their head up in front of the Dragon People.
.
Therefore, at this time, Yuan Shuai and Warring States could not sit still, and hurriedly came out to smooth things over. At the same time, he showed his majesty in a timely manner, hoping to suppress the situation and ease the atmosphere.
"Hmph, I just want to save my face in the Warring States period and I won't argue with you today."
After a while, Doflamingo was the first to let go. After saying something to create a scene, he sat back on the chair with an unhappy expression.
"cut."
Li Xiao sneered and immediately restrained his anger.
Although he was not afraid of Doflamingo, today's situation was a bit special and it was not suitable for a big fight here, so after pondering for a long time, he gave up and did not continue to waste words with Doflamingo.
"Li Xiao, your seat has been reserved a long time ago."
Hancock pointed to the seat next to her, winked at Li Xiao, and said with a sweet smile.
"OK, thanks."
Facing Hancock's kind invitation, Li Xiao was not polite, walked over slowly, and sat down.
"Hello, I am Hancock, please give me your advice."
As soon as he sat down, a gust of fragrant wind blew towards him, and a soft body whirled up to him, exhaling a blue breath that made people feel refreshed.
At the same time, there was a plump being rubbing back and forth next to Li Xiao's arm, making him a little distracted. With great difficulty, he suppressed the evil fire rising in his lower abdomen.
…
Sitting next to such a peerless beauty, even Li Xiao's heart was filled with ripples, but fortunately, his concentration was also very good.
After taking a deep breath and reciting the Bing Xin Jue in his mouth, a crystal clear ice lotus slowly bloomed in his mind, bringing a hint of comfort and coldness, and also suppressed the evil thoughts in his heart.
It calmed him down.
At this time, when Warring States saw Li Xiao and Doflamingo, they finally took a step back, and no further conflict broke out. Warring States also breathed a sigh of relief.
If Li Xiao and Doflamingo really started fighting here, then the final situation would be really difficult to control, so he also felt a sense of fear and lingering fear.
After controlling the situation on the field, the Shichibukai meeting officially began.
Soon, some waiters brought hot meals and placed them on the round table. These were all dishes cooked by Marie Joa's royal chef. They were full of color, fragrance and rare delicacies, even if they were
Just looking at it makes people very appetizing.
Li Xiao was not polite and started to enjoy the meal.
In this way, while tasting the delicious food, the meeting was also going on.
The purpose of the meeting is to coordinate the cooperation between Kaijun and the King's Shichibukai, so as to jointly complete the tasks of world government.
Of course, this time the discussion and negotiation mainly focused on two aspects.
One of them is of course undoubted, that is, Li Xiao officially joined the Shichibukai, and during this period he had the consciousness of being granted a title. At this point, Li Xiao successfully ascended the position of the Shichibukai, and he also had the right and status to respond.
, of course, he also has to fulfill some obligations.
As for the second point, it was the plan to use Ace as bait on the day of Ace's execution to annihilate the Whitebeard Adventure Group.
This plan is a top priority, and it is even related to the direction of the entire great route in the future.
After some discussions, after deploying some combat strategies and plans, and after clarifying the respective responsibilities of the Kaijun headquarters and the Shichibukai at that time, the meeting was finally declared over.
"Okay, the meeting is over here. In one month, Ace will be executed on the execution platform of Malinfando. Everyone must be present at that time to fulfill their obligations."
At the end, Warring States stood up and looked around the audience. After making a summary report, his eyes fell on Li Xiao: "I also want to congratulate Li Xiao for having the title and qualification of the Shichibukai.
I still have some business with me, so I’ll take my leave for now. I hope you all have a good time.”
After finishing speaking, Warring States left the venue surrounded by his subordinates. Akainu, Aoki, He and others also left one after another. Aoki took a deep look at Li Xiao as he left.
, it seemed that he was hesitant to speak, but in the end, he still held back.
…
…
"Jiejie, Li Xiao, you killed Moria and then succeeded in taking the throne. Aren't you worried that one day someone will follow your example, kill you, and then take the position of Shichibukai?"
Doflamingo said with a strange smile.
"Haha, if you don't have the consciousness to be challenged, then you'd better leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, when you get to the new world, you will be crushed to pieces by the rolling waves."
"Compared to this, I advise you to keep an eye on your position, otherwise if someone takes it, you will make a fool of yourself."
Li Xiao shrugged his shoulders, sneered teasingly, then pushed the chair away and was about to leave.
The meeting was over, and there was nothing to talk about with these people with ulterior motives, so Li Xiao planned to go home.
"Li Xiao, let me give it to you. I'm about to go back to Amazon."
At this time, Hancock had a full smile on his face, leaned forward, leaned on Li Xiao's side, supported Li Xiao, and prepared to walk out the door.
Seeing this, Li Xiao couldn't help but twitch his lips. In his impression, Hancock in the original work was very cold and difficult to approach. Why did he become so proactive?
"Li Xiao, please stay."
Just when Li Xiaozheng felt a little surprised, Hawkeye walked over slowly.
"Why, before you even leave the venue, you are ready to fall out with our "colleagues"?"
Seeing Hawkeye approaching step by step, Hancock stopped in front of Li Xiao, his pretty face turned cold, and he scolded Hawkeye.
As a veteran of the Shichibukai, Hancock naturally knows the ropes. Even though they were having a lively chat at the meeting just now, when they walk out of the meeting, they may turn against each other in the blink of an eye.
After all, those who join the Shichibukai are actually doing it for their own benefit, and they can be said to have their own agendas. Seeing Hawkeye getting closer and closer, Hancock's eyes showed a vigilant look.
After all, Hancock doesn't like everyone that well.
"Tsk, tsk, you started to protect your shortcomings so quickly."
Doflamingo put his hands in his trouser pockets and watched the show from the side.
"Hancock... I have no hostility towards Li Xiao, but I want to have a discussion with him. After all, the opportunity is rare. Only by understanding yourself and the world can you become stronger."
Facing Hancock's somewhat wary gaze, Hawkeye shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"It's okay, let him finish what he said."
Li Xiao waved his hand and looked at Hawkeye Mihawk with interest.
When Hancock heard this, he moved aside and did not stop Hawkeye from approaching Li Xiao.
"Li Xiao, it is said that you also use swordsmanship, but why don't you carry your sword?"
Mihawk glanced at Li Xiao's waist, but found that the crimson sword that was supposed to be slung around his waist did not appear, which made him a little confused.
Thinking of this, a trace of doubt flashed across Mihawk's eyes.
"Oh, you are talking about the Red Flame Sword. That sword is being re-refined, so I don't carry it with me."
Li Xiao didn't hide anything and explained it like this.
…
…
At this moment, not only the Red Flame Sword, but also the Magic Sword and the Edman Flying Knife. These three weapons are all smelted in the forging room by the alchemist Kerry, hoping to merge them into one.
Refining them to create a brand new magic weapon.
Even though this move may be a bit risky, it is worth the effort, Li Xiao said in his heart.
"Oh, that's such a pity. I originally wanted to learn swordsmanship with you, but it seems that I can't do it. Let's talk about it another day."
When Mihawk heard this, his eyes dimmed and he said with some regret.
Since Li Xiao didn't bring a sword, Mihawk didn't intend to embarrass his opponent. Mihawk was a noble person and pursued a fair fight. After Shanks broke an arm, he never fought with Shanks again.
The opponent has to compete with each other in swordsmanship, because even if he wins the opponent, it will be disgraceful.
As the best swordsman in the world, he also has his own arrogance.
"If you want to learn swordsmanship, you don't have to wait another day, you can do it now. The heavy sword has no edge, it is ingenious and ingenious, and my fingers can also be used as swords."
Li Xiao touched his nose and said with a smile. As his practice progressed, his sword fingering had also reached the level of proficiency. Although it was inferior to when he had weapons, it was still similar.
"Oh? I've long heard that you can use your fingers as sword blades, but I didn't expect it to be true." After hearing what the other party said, a look of surprise flashed in Mihawk's eyes.
"Since it's a competition, I can't let you suffer, so I'll use my cross knife to fight you. What do you think?"
Mihawk asked.
"What's wrong, but the place here is too small, I'm afraid I won't be able to use it, so I'd better go outside."
Li Xiao suggested, Xuan Zhi walked straight towards the door, and Mihawk followed closely.
"Hey, there's something good to watch now."
Doflamingo licked his lips, spread his fingers, and used his ability. Five thin threads were drilled out from his fingers, and then he rolled them gently along the protrusions at the eaves of the roof.
, and then it unfolded suddenly like a horse training.
"Uh-huh."
Doflamingo, under the pull of the thin line, jumped up and landed on the roof of the house. He chose a good angle and overlooked Li Xiao below.
The competition between Mihawk and Mihawk.
Bartholomew Bear and Empress Hancock were also watching from the sidelines.
On the field.
Li Xiao and Hawkeye Mihawk lined up on both sides and faced each other.
Seeing Li Xiao and Yingyan take a stance, people and soldiers around them also ran over to watch. It can be said that it caused quite a stir.
After all, this is a competition between two Shichibukai, so it is naturally inevitable and will attract a lot of people's attention.
Mihawk took off the cross knife hanging from his neck.
This was originally his pendant, but at this moment, he was using it as a weapon.
Mihawk held it between his two fingers. Compared to a weapon, it was more like he was holding a small, exquisite and beautiful toy. No one would associate it with a weapon.
Li Xiao, on the other hand, circulated the true energy in his body. The majestic true energy flowed along the meridians and along a specific trajectory to his wrist, spurted out, and condensed into a three-foot-long line at his fingertips.
