One Piece: The Max-Level Blacksmith of Marineford

The slash just now was shattered by a single punch from the iron hammer.

However, sensing the power contained in the strike, Iron Hammer frowned slightly.

Looking at the person who did it...

Just as I expected...

"Here he comes! The number one rising star of the Marine Headquarters, the Forger Hammer!"

A flicker of excitement crossed the young man's face, excitement at seeing the hammer.

He slowly raised the greatsword in his hand, assuming a starting stance.

"Let's have a battle! A duel between a swordsmith and a true swordsman!"

"I do not!"

Just as the young man was issuing his battle declaration with high spirits, Iron Hammer flatly refused.

And he looked at the young man in front of him with a very serious expression.

He had short black hair and sharp eyes, but no beard.

Hawkeye...

A younger version of Jolac Mihawk...?

Yes, the people in front of me are piloting the small boat and attacking the Warhammer.

He is the future Shichibukai, the world's greatest swordsman.

Jorah Mihawk!

"Why! How dare you refuse my challenge!"

Things turned out completely unexpectedly, which was very difficult for Mihawk to accept.

"You're just a brat, not a pirate. Why should I accept your challenge?"

"Hmm? Give me a reason, kid."

Mihawk was dumbfounded.

A showdown? Do we need a reason?

But soon he saw the greatsword in his hand.

One of the twelve supreme grade swords, the Night.

The Supreme Grade Swords are among the twelve great swords of the world, and only twelve weapons in the entire world possess this title. They are handcrafted by master craftsmen.

Night, a greatsword, its blade pattern a chaotic, overlapping floral design.

Iron Hammer's gaze was also fixed on Famous Sword Night.

The blade of the Night is clearly wider, and the tip is more like a traditional machete/hunting knife.

The handguard is somewhat extravagant and disproportionate, but its length may serve as a counterweight. Because the Night's blade is extremely long and the tip is wide, its center of gravity needs to be close to the handguard for the weapon to be wielded with agility. Its weight distribution must be very scientific to ensure balance during swings.

The Black Blade Yoru is considered a Supreme Grade Sword not only because of its sharpness, but also because of its exquisite weight distribution. Clearly, the sword's forger was not only well-versed in metallurgy, but also possessed a profound understanding of mechanics.

As expected of a sword worthy of being called a Supreme Grade Sword, it truly possesses formidable power.

But who is Iron Hammer? In his previous life, he was a renowned craftsman in China. He believed that the weapons he had forged so far were already among the top-tier great swords.

All that's missing is proof, isn't it?

Isn't this the opportunity right now?

If the future world's greatest swordsman's sword can overpower his Night, wouldn't that prove that even the Supreme Grade Swords must bow down before him?

In an instant, Iron Hammer had already conceived a perfect plan in his mind.

Even the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Seeing this, Kuzan and the others couldn't help but feel a chill emanating from Iron Hammer, which was quite eerie.

"Hey, Hammer, can you stop laughing like that? It's creepy and creepy."

Kuzan, being outspoken, spoke up, causing Iron Hammer to quickly suppress his smile and glare at him fiercely.

"Kid, if you want to challenge me, at least give me your name."

"Name?"

Mihawk was a little confused, but he still honestly said his name.

"My name is Dracule Mihawk! I'm destined to become the world's greatest swordsman!"

Hammer nodded, and suddenly he felt that the younger version of Mihawk looked so much like Zoro.

Is this why he was willing to teach Zoro?

Did you see a younger version of yourself? Were you lost in memories?

"Mihawk, is that it? Heh, not bad. If I'm not mistaken, your sword is the Supreme Grade Sword, Yoru."

Upon hearing this, the naval soldiers and Kuzan were all taken aback.

The Supreme Grade Sword? Really?

"Yes! Night, one of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords."

Mihawk stroked the blade, his expression softening.

"Alright, for its sake, I can allow you to attack me."

"Three times, I'll allow you to launch three attacks."

"Lance, lower the boat!"

Iron Hammer ripped off the cloak of justice from his back, revealing an air of profound mystery about him.

Lance immediately ordered the soldiers to lower the small boat, and Iron Hammer jumped directly onto the boat and came to Mihawk's front.

The two stood facing each other, one on the boat and the other on the other.

Mihawk was overjoyed to have received Hammer's consent.

He assumed the starting stance again, his entire being resembling a sharp sword, the sword intent emanating from him even surprising Kuzan.

"Sword intent... This little brat has actually comprehended sword intent?"

Iron Hammer nodded secretly as he faced Mihawk, whose sword intent was bursting forth.

No wonder he's destined to be the greatest swordsman of the future; he looks only 16 or 17 years old, yet he's already achieved so much...

"The First Sword!"

"The Faith of the Sword!"

Mihawk gathered his strength with both hands, and his famous sword Night swept out, accompanied by a slogan. The Flying Slash appeared again, but this time the slash was more solid and more lethal.

Iron Hammer: ...What the hell, the Faith of the Sword? ? ?

Why do I suddenly feel like Sony is shouting slogans?

But the slash is now right in front of the hammer.

"Forty forty forty!"

A heavy hammering sound followed, and the shockwave from the hammering collided with the slashing strike.

It directly shattered the slash.

This scene greatly surprised Mihawk. He knew very well the power of his strike. How could the iron hammer shatter it so easily?

"As expected of Lieutenant General Iron Hammer, take my second sword!"

"The Way of the Sword!"

The famous sword, Night, slashed twice, the two strikes forming a cross-shaped blade, causing even the sea to churn where the blade struck.

"What the hell is this all about? Faith and morality..."

"Facebreaker Hammer!"

Faced with the attack coming again, Iron Hammer extended his index fingers, and Armament Haki and hammer strikes were instantly combined and activated.

The slash was destroyed with penetrating force.

"how come...."

"Is that domineering?"

Although Mihawk is still young, he knows about Haki and has learned from his elders that to reach the highest level of swordsmanship, one must cultivate one's own black blade.

However, he has not yet awakened his domineering aura, so he was somewhat excited when he saw it.

"Oh? So you know about Haki. That's right, it's Haki, Armament Haki."

As he spoke, Iron Hammer covered his hands with an aura of dominance and looked at him with a smile.

"So this is Armament Haki... I'll have it sooner or later!"

"At that time, I will train the Night Blade into my own unique black blade!"
