How can I become the Pirate King if you don’t work hard?.

Chapter 357 Door-Door Fruit VS Operation-Operation Fruit!

Akin recalled the scene from his fight with Beville a year ago, where he was completely overwhelmed by his opponent, and couldn't help but nod:

"Now that you mention it, I'm quite interested. Just how far can Luo go?"

The sound fell to the ground.

The two people in the arena had already made their moves.

Ding--!
Swords clashed.

The famous sword Ghost Cry clashed with the knight's sword, creating a shockwave that spread outwards.

But they parted ways after just one touch.

What followed was sparks flashing in the air and scattered blade energy.

Both Bevel and Law have fighting styles that are very different from Zoro's previous ones.

They prefer to use their brains to analyze their opponents' weaknesses, see through their flaws, and strike swiftly and fatally like a venomous snake.

At this moment, the two were merely testing each other, yet they caused wave after wave of cheers from the surrounding audience!
Ding!
Ding!
Ding!
In the midst of intense clashes, Bevel pressed forward relentlessly, his silver knight's sword gleaming, completely overwhelming Law!
"Whether it's domineering aura, swordsmanship, or physique, you are no match for me!"

"Luo!"

A rare hint of excitement flickered in Beville's eyes:
"If you're still thinking of hiding a backup plan, then defeat is all that awaits you!"

An invisible aura erupted from Beville, creating a wave of air and stirring up a cloud of dust.

Luo's vision was obstructed, and the senses transmitted through his Observation Haki made goosebumps rise on the back of his hands.

Something...is coming!

laugh--!
The silver-white slash swept across, instantly tearing apart the dust and smoke it had stirred up!

Luo ducked to avoid it, but unexpectedly, the ground beneath his feet began to rotate at the same time, turning into a revolving door!

"The power of the Door-Door Fruit?!"

Luo broke out in a cold sweat.

Over the course of more than a year, he had faced Beville several times and believed he was extremely familiar with the latter's abilities.

That special ability to open a door from the void and redirect the opponent's attack is incredibly troublesome, and if used well, it can be considered unsolvable.

Even Gawain has praised him several times, saying that he ranks among the top in the Superhuman class.

But he still hadn't anticipated that Beville had such a trick up his sleeve.

The feint attack was merely a slash; the real offensive tactic was to turn the ground beneath their feet!
If he really manages to transfer me to another dimension, this battle will end instantly!

It's absolutely insidious!
"trouble!"

"room!"

The slaughterhouse opened instantly, almost encompassing the entire arena, and Luo's figure disappeared into thin air in the next instant.

boom!
The Gate of Earth flipped at that moment, the ground trembled, and the dust and smoke that had just been stirred up were all swept into the other dimension!

"Oh~"

"So you dodged it after all?"

Bevel brandished his knight's sword, feeling a surge of heat coursing through his body.

He joined the group the shortest time ago and has the shallowest foundation.

At this moment, they urgently need to fight battles to prove their worth.

During that year, Bevel also participated in Gawain's group's battles, and the title of Eagle Rider was something to be proud of in the New World.

He naturally understood that not all pirates were like Gawain.

That man is special!

So I, who follow him, who follow the sun of Britannias, am also special!
"Come!!"

boom--!
The floor beneath his feet cracked open, and Beville suddenly darted forward like a streak of light, his murderous aura radiating from him, his imposing presence overwhelming, yet his eyes remained incredibly clear!
Upon seeing this, Luo immediately distanced himself from Beville.

The exchange just now made him realize that even after two years of training, his raw strength was still inferior to the monster before him.

Victory lies solely in the clash of abilities!
The arena of the round table was enormous, but after a year of arduous training, Luo's slaughterhouse was able to expand to an even larger area.

At this moment, the round table arena has become a surgical instrument that he can use at will on his operating table, and the patient is the aggressive Beville!
"Injection-shoot!"

A crosshair-like shape appeared before Luo's eyes. After seeing the opening in Bevel's chest, he immediately followed with an extremely fierce thrust!

With the added power of the Op-Op Fruit, Law was confident that this attack would pierce through the defenses of everyone except Gawain!
It's also one of his trump cards!

just.

In the next instant, Luo's pupils suddenly contracted!

A portal suddenly opened in the void in front of Bevel, absorbing all of his attacks.

Then another door opened on the other side, from which came Luo's extremely fierce thrust, aimed directly at Luo, who now had a constipated expression on his face!
"Grass!"

now.

Luo finally understood why Gawain had repeatedly said that even he was fascinated by Beville's abilities.

This ability to directly redirect the opponent's attacks is simply another level of absolute defense!

It's not that it's absolutely unbreakable, but rather that it's impossible to hit it!

"The underworld!"

"This is fucking insane!"

The voice has not yet fallen.

Bevel was already attacking from afar, his fierce slash flying past Luo's hair, startling him into a cold sweat.

Before they could even react, an even faster sword strike came down from above!
Luo had no choice but to parry with his sword. The violent force of the sword made his legs tremble slightly, and he tasted a metallic sweetness in his mouth.

"You lost!"

Bevel's voice was calm and full of confidence, but when he struck with his next sword, he lost his target and only managed to cut a bird in two.

Beville subconsciously looked up.

Then Luo's figure slowly descended from the sky, having switched places with a bird in the sky in that instant!

The Operation Fruit has absolute control over everything in the Room realm, and can easily sever everything inside a patient's body!
It's also a kind of mechanics monster in a certain sense!
"Even with a complete disadvantage in terms of domineering aura and swordsmanship, you were able to fight me to this extent..."

A hint of caution crept into Beville's eyes.

He realized at that moment that if he wasn't careful, there was a real possibility of things going wrong!
The two stopped moving at the same time.

Their eyes met.

They both understood each other's unspoken meaning...

"trouble!"

call--!
The wind suddenly picked up, and dark clouds gradually gathered in the sky, with faint rumbles of thunder.

The audience was completely silent. The expressions on their faces shifted from shock to bewilderment, and finally to overwhelming joy.

"In just a few seconds, there were several life-or-death battles, and the danger was even greater than that battle between Zoro and Sanji!"

"This is a battle between Paramecia-type Devil Fruit users!"

"Every mistake could potentially ruin an already favorable situation!"

"Stimulate!"

"A thrill that transcends the soul!"

Cheers rose and drowned out the thunder in the sky.

At one point, raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the earth and breaking into water droplets, followed by a dense thunderstorm!

Crash-!
It rained heavily.

The two people on the field rushed towards each other at the same time!
Swords clashed, sparks flew in the air!
"It's interesting~"

Inside the government building.

Gawain watched the battle in the arena through the porthole. This was one of his few pastimes.

“Bevel was already at the Gold rank. Although he spent most of his energy on internal affairs of Britannias this year and did not diligently cultivate, he has still reached the Gold rank thanks to the experience treasury and the two badges.”

"That was exactly what I expected."

"How could Luo actually fight him to this extent?!"

Gao Wendu couldn't help but nod repeatedly.

He can tell.

Two years have passed, and Law's strength has leaped a major level, approaching the Gold rank, but there is still a considerable gap between him and Beville.

Two years ago, even when Akin and Tezzo were playing together, they were easily suppressed by Beville.

But Law, now nearing the middle of the Gold Saint rank, is using the power of the Op-Op Fruit and his quick thinking to engage in a protracted battle with Beville...

"There are too many factors that affect the battle. The system's rating is more like a panel. It's hard to say whether a higher rating will lead to a defeat when encountering certain monsters with specific mechanics."

"but."

"These two can now be considered the main force on the ship."

Gao Wen did the calculations carefully, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face:
"Lucci is still lurking within the CP organization and cannot extricate himself from this ranking battle."

"But according to the information he revealed, his Devil Fruit ability has also awakened, and his strength, even if it has not yet reached the level of the Future Island period in the original timeline, is not far off."

"There is a high probability that it will rise to the gold level, or even reach the extreme level."

"Including Gin, Zoro, Sanji, Beville, Cavendish, and other high-ranking combatants..."

"Looking at it this way, I could easily put together a lineup of seven Warlords of the Sea plus two Admirals, tsk~"

Gawain lowered his eyes again and looked at the battlefield.

In just a few dozen seconds, the two engaged in several rounds of attack and defense.

Beville has the advantage in raw strength and is equally formidable, but he couldn't defeat the slippery and elusive Law for the time being.

But one thing Gawain was clear about was this.

This kind of mentally taxing offensive and defensive battle is far more exhausting than the pure head-on clashes like those between Zoro and Sanji, and it generally ends much faster!

Gawain's gaze sharpened slightly:
"The battle is about to begin!"

In the arena.

Beville's advantage became increasingly apparent. The Door-Door Fruit redirected the vast majority of Law's attacks, to the point that he could almost ignore Law's attacks!

Each sword strike is faster than the last!

Each item is stronger than a single sword!

Chi Chi Chi -!
Sword energy crisscrossed the sword, and Luo Huo, like a rabbit leaping and bounding, became increasingly clear-eyed and excited!

at last……

boom--!
As Beville landed, the stone slab beneath his feet suddenly sank several meters, causing a look of astonishment on his face.

Even with his full strength, he could only barely leave a crack in the floor made of this special material; such a large-scale collapse was impossible...

trap!

He suddenly realized what was happening.

Luo's thrust was already upon him!
"This is the moment we've been waiting for!"

Luo had been roaming the battlefield, getting beaten and forced to flee, but he persisted, waiting for this moment!
Using the power of the surgical fruit, he silently disrupted the underground structure and laid a trap.

At this moment, the trap was triggered by Beville, causing him to hesitate even slightly in his attack!
Such a trap could not possibly hold Beville back; he could reorganize his offensive in an instant. But that was exactly the instant that Law wanted!

In such a high-intensity battle, a momentary advantage is the key to victory!
Using the power of the Op-Op Fruit, he swapped positions with the rubble next to Bevel and then stabbed Bevel in the chest with his sword!
This position won't kill him, but it can render Bevel incapable of fighting.

laugh--!
A piercing sensation came over me.

But it wasn't the familiar sensation of piercing flesh that Luo knew. He suddenly realized something was wrong, and everything he saw began to spin in the next instant.

"The victory has been decided!"

Beville's calm voice came through.

His Door-Door Fruit has been cultivated to a level close to awakening, allowing him to open several doors at the same time.

There were two doors in front of him at that moment.

One fan transferred the knife in Law's hand to another dimension, while the other fan opened on Law's face, spinning rapidly in time with Law's exclamation.

"You really don't hold back..."

Beville glanced at the long knife piercing through the door in his chest, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

He and Luo hadn't been in the group for very long, but their relationship was pretty good. When they were cultivating, they often sparred together.

"when--!"

Kro, temporarily acting as referee, rang the bell beside him, nodded to Beville, and announced the result of the battle:

"The winner!"

"Eagle Knight - Bevel!"

A burst of cheers suddenly erupted from the stands.

Two consecutive battles lasted for more than three days, but many people on the sidelines stayed by the sidelines, watching with fascination.

Even more astonishing was the monstrous strength of Bevel and his companions!

But to protect Britannias, to protect Gawain's banner, such power is essential!

"too strong!"

“Every cadre is as strong as a monster.”

Even the loser possesses power that ordinary people cannot match!

……

"The loser?!"

Coming to his senses, Luo, knowing the outcome was already decided, simply lay down on the spot, digesting the bitterness of defeat:
"That was really awful language!"

"You really intend to beat me?!"

A cheerful voice reached Luo's ears. He opened his eyes and saw Beville's outstretched hand.

Snapped--!
Luo grasped Beville and slowly rose to his feet. Just as he was about to speak, Beville interrupted him:
"You're paying for the drinks tonight."

"You bastard, were you really planning to send me to the hospital for a split second just now?!"

Luo's face stiffened:
"It's not that bad. With your physical condition, you'll only need to lie down for a few days at most."

"At most? Next month's alcohol budget is all yours!"

"what?!"

……

The two walked off the battlefield arm in arm, supporting each other.

Chloe's gaze lingered on the two figures as they walked away, a hint of admiration creeping into his eyes:

"The Door-Door Fruit allows you to open doors in the void, redirecting your opponent's attacks to another dimension, and even reflecting them back."

"The Op-Op Fruit can control everything on the operating table, even the special materials used to build the Round Table Arena can be shredded. These are all troublesome abilities."

"The Superhuman class has a low floor, but it's easy to create weird mechanics; Gawain's assessment is quite accurate."

"Luo Ying's strength is slightly lacking, but in the outside world, he is capable of serving as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and may even be stronger than some of them!"

“Beville’s words…”

He couldn't resist teasing Ah Jin again:

"This guy might be even more dangerous than Zoro and the others. Are you confident?!"
