Chapter 13
Forced To Be A General, I Just Wanted To Retire
Sorry, Shichibukai Is Amazing
Mihawk was obviously determined to fight with Kuro, and that merciless stab to Leda completely angered Kuro.
It was the same before. He attacked indiscriminately. If he and Leda didnât block the attack, the people on this Battleship would have suffered.
Pirates are indeed a group of lawless and undisciplined existences.
âOne Blade â Divine Cross!â
Kuroâs blade turned up and parried Mihawkâs black blade, and in an instant, he made a cross cut.
âInteresting sword skill.â
Mihawk took a step back, his black blade blocking in front of him. After receiving Croweâs blade, he swung his hand.
Dang!
Kuro blocked it with his blade, and the blade drew a spark from the black blade and swept across Mihawkâs neck.
âNot bad.â
Mihawk flashed and asked, âWhy is a man like you in East Blue?â
If it wasnât for Haki, that ordinary blade would have shattered the moment it came into contact with the black blade.
âOne Blade Flow, Rock Collapse!â
Kuro jumped up high and slashed down with the knife in both hands.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
On the deck, the two of them exchanged blows.
Marine gaped.
That is the worldâs number one swordsman, and he can actually fight with their Warrant Officer.
Then the worldâs number one swordsman doesnât seem to be very strongâ¦
Limited by their knowledge, these Marines will not think that their Warrant Officer is very powerful, they will only think that Mihawkâs strength is limited.
I can probably do it too?
Kuro dodged Mihawkâs blade, put the blade back into the sheath and pulled it up again.
âOne Blade Flow: Crush!â
A strong killing intent spread throughout the entire ship as he swung his sword. Crowe, who was watching the battle, felt dizzy and almost fell down.
Itâs that feeling of dying againâ¦
Plop.
Plop.
The Marines lost their focus and fainted on the deck.
Mihawk was stunned. âHaoshoku? No, isnât it murderous? Itâs a genius to use it to this extent.â
âKuro is going to be serious.â
Leda, who had retreated to the side to watch the battle, chewed an apple and said lightly.
âYou said that Mr. Kuro is not serious yet?â Crowe asked as he tried to suppress his murderous aura.
Heâs still not serious?
He was not one of those ignorant Marines. The moves of the two people made him shudder. Any one of them could kill him with one slash.
Leda said, âThat eagle-eyed man doesnât have any killing intent, he just wants to compete. Kuro didnât want to fight at first, but he seems to be irritated.â
âOh? Are you getting serious?â
Mihawk also felt it, his eyes faintly expectant.
âUnseen Godâs Wind and Killing Sword: Flood Dragon!â
Kuro wiped the blade with two fingers, emitting golden light, and slashed at Mihawk.
Itâs not a âdragonâ, nor is it a sea serpent, but a real âdragonâ!â
The water in the air stirred the sea and gathered on Kuroâs blade, forming a water dragon form.
Mihawkâs face was solemn as he held Black Blade Night with both hands and slashed out.
The two intersected and staggered.
Crack!
Kuroâs knife shattered inch by inch. He held the handle of the knife and said lightly, âDo you hear the soft sound of the Divine Wind?â
Chi!
Mihawkâs hand splashed with blood. He turned around. There was another wound on his cheek, and blood kept flowing out.
Although he was injured, he was not angry at all. Instead, he said regretfully, âItâs very interesting swordsmanship, the power to control water and blood⦠Itâs a pity that you canât use your full strength because of the sword. You need a famous sword.â
Injured, the worldâs number one swordsman is injured!
Others might not know, but how could Leda not know what was going on?
An ordinary knife can hurt Hawkeye. Kuro is qualified to challenge the worldâs number one swordsman!
Kuro took a deep breath, picked up a saber, and covered it with Armament Haki again.
âFlood Dragon is useless to you. It makes sense. After all, he is the worldâs number one swordsman.â
He wiped the blade again and said, âLida, stay away from me. The profound meaning of the Lightless Divine Wind . Qingâ¦â
âEnough, I have had enough fun today.â
Mihawk suddenly waved his hand and put away his black blade. âIf we really fight, your ship will fall apart. Iâm not here to fight Marines.â
Kuro said hatefully, âLida blocked your slash and was injured, and almost destroyed my ship. Now you donât want to fight, Shichibukai!â
In any case, Marine had fainted and no one saw him. He really wanted to test the gap between him and the worldâs number one swordsman.
âIâm also injured, right? Letâs call it even.â
Mihawk said indifferently, then his figure flashed and he jumped on his boat, âSorry, Shichibukai is amazing, we have special privileges.â
He revealed a satisfied smile. He came to East Blue out of boredom, but he did not expect to gain two interesting people.
That Rolo Noah Zoro and the man in front of him who could challenge his throne.
âYoung man, state your name.â
âMy name is Crowe!â
Kuro said seriously, âRemember my name, Jorakol Mihawk, sooner or later I will replace you as the worldâs number one swordsman!â
â???â
Claude, who was still shocked by their combat power, was confused.
âWhatâs that got to do with me?â
Are you reading it wrong?
âIâll remember.â
Mihawk nodded solemnly. âFind a famous sword as soon as possible. A swordsman without a good sword will affect his strength. Come to me when you are really confident. I will wait for you on that throne.â
He sat in his small boat and gradually moved away as the small boat moved.
Kuro put down the knife in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.
âThereâs still a gapâ¦â
A swordsman who is strong enough can know the gap between him and his opponent at a glance.
Of course, Kuro knew that he was still a distance away from Hawkeye. If he fought with his life, he would lose, but the other party would not win so easily.
With Hawkeye, he could roughly guess his strength.
Sure enough, safety was the priority.
âMr. Kuro, you justâ¦â
Crowe came behind him and asked bitterly.
âWhat?â
âWhen you introduced me to Hawkeye just now, you used my name, Crowe.â
âWhat?â
âChloe.â
âWhat Law?â
âChloe.â
âWhat?â
âKe⦠Forget it, Iâll go to the side and rest.â
âOkay.â
After sending Crowe away, Kuro bared his teeth at Mihawkâs back. âThe future is long. Sooner or later, Iâll give you a beating.â
But Mihawk was right. He did not have a good knife.
Moreover, if they really fought, it would not end in a short time. He did not want Headquarters to pay attention to him so early. It was too dangerous.
Ledaâs injury was reported, Mihawk was also injured.
He was not afraid. So what if Mihawk reported to the higher-ups? The name was not real.
If you have the ability, go find Koro. What does it have to do with me?
⦠.
Marine fainted and the ship could not move. Kuro could only hold a telescope and watch the battle in front of him.
Leda also held a telescope and watched from the side:
âThatâs Krieg, Pirate Admiral with a bounty of 17 million. I heard that he went to the Grand Line. Why is he back so soon?â
âUnlucky. Itâs a large ship regiment with 5,000 people. If they break into the Grand Line, the Marines will have a headache. Fortunately, they encountered the storm and Hawkeye. If heâs not unlucky, who is?â
Kuro looked at the big man dressed like a holy warrior and the man in the straw hat and clicked his tongue.
âArrest him later.â
âYou changed your personality?â Leda looked at Kuro in surprise.
âDonât you know why I arrested him?â
Kuro looked at the white-haired foodie who was still chewing in his mouth and sighed.
I donât have much money left. I have to find a way to get some money.
