Chapter 500 The World's Greatest Swordsman Trapped in Reincarnation

Naraku Uehara…

That's a bit unreasonable.

Hawkeye Mihawk stared at the Susanoo sword gleaming with blue light before him, his mood gradually becoming heavy. He had witnessed the power of Susanoo before.

Once Susanoo hits you head-on with a single strike...

Even a giant can be cleaved in two with a single strike!

Hawkeye Mihawk once personally faced Sasuke Uchiha's purple Susanoo, and he knew the immense power of Susanoo; even he had to exert all his strength to deal with that power…

And Uehara Naraku's blue Susanoo...

He definitely possesses power far surpassing that of Uchiha Sasuke!

"Mr. Mihawk."

Uehara Naraku stood within the crystal of Susanoo, manipulating it to raise its massive ninja sword. A cold glint flashed in his Rinnegan: "Then, let's continue!"

The next moment, the towering Susanoo suddenly swung the ninja sword in its hand!

A crescent-shaped blue light ripped through the sky, and Susanoo's super-powerful slash suddenly fell towards Mihawk, as if the air itself had been shattered by this powerful strike!

Hawkeye Mihawk stared in astonishment at the surging slash that was coming towards him. The ice around him shattered, a testament to the immense pressure brought by the slash!

The slash hadn't even landed on Mihawk yet...

However, that oppressive force was already difficult for him to resist!

This strike had no swordsmanship skills whatsoever; it was simply a strike delivered by the power of Susanoo. Even so, it instilled a sense of despair that was impossible to resist!

Uehara Naraku's Susanoo...

But he possesses ten times the power of his original form!

Hawkeye Mihawk did not give up. While quickly searching for a new foothold, he swung his black sword, unleashing one slash after another towards the sky!

No matter how many slashes Mihawk unleashed, they all vanished instantly upon impacting Susanoo's blue slash, only slightly dimming the descending blue light...

That won't be enough to withstand this attack!

"Haa!"

Hawkeye Mihawk finally stood on a solid block of ice, and suddenly raised his black sword and slashed upwards, meeting the crescent-shaped pale blue light falling from the sky...

Hawkeye finally unleashed that fierce strike…

It directly split Susanoo's blue slash in two!

Even though the blue slash was cleaved in two by Hawkeye Mihawk, it still possessed unparalleled destructive power, instantly cutting through the thick ice!

The sea slowly emerged from a crack in the ice...

"As expected of the world's greatest swordsman..."

Uehara Naraku stood inside the crystal of Susanoo, watching Hawkeye Mihawk receive his slash, a serious expression slowly creeping across his face: "Then, let me experience the limits of the world's greatest swordsman!"

next moment…

The complete Susanoo, like a god of war, slashed down at Hawkeye Mihawk one after another, with blue arc-shaped slashes falling continuously!

Each arcing slash carried the power to destroy everything...

If it cannot be defeated, death is inevitable!

A dozen or so arc-shaped slashes densely covered the icy plain, leaving Hawkeye Mihawk nowhere to hide and forcing him to quickly raise his black blade!

Hawkeye Mihawk held his black sword directly in front of him, attempting to use this Supreme Grade Sword, which had once been his only companion, as his last stand...

In an instant…

A dazzling blue light descended!

That was the first strike to land on the ice field, followed closely by other blue lights that blotted out the sky over this sea area!

Thud! Thud! Thud…

The icy plain was instantly shattered by streaks of blue light!

Each descending blue beam of light was a devastating strike, capable of destroying the heavens and the earth. Even the aftershocks from the nearby strikes were enough to make Hawkeye Mihawk feel the power to shatter his body!

This icy plain, created by Uehara Naraku himself, was also destroyed by him. Under the attack of Susanoo, Hawkeye Mihawk felt his own insignificance and weakness...

No, he wasn't the only one who was weak...

And this ocean, trembling under the immense pressure of Susanoo!

The blue Susanoo, standing over a thousand meters tall, resembled a true god, possessing power sufficient to destroy the world!

absolute…

No one can stop them, right?

But how can a swordsman back down here!

Hawkeye Mihok stared intently at the blue slashes hurtling towards him from the sky, wielding his black blade to deflect the powerful impact!

A black light flashed from the black blade!

Hawkeye Mihawk held the black knife upside down, desperately blocking a blue slash. He couldn't help but clench his teeth, and the veins on his palms gradually became visible!

This force is too strong!

Just by enduring one of Susanoo's slashes, Hawkeye Mihawk was already in slight pain. Sasuke Uchiha was simply no match for that power!

This is…

Is he the leader of Akatsuki?

"How could a swordsman possibly fall here!"

Hawkeye Mihawk raised his head, finally letting out a roar, and swung his black blade to deflect the slash that had blocked him!

Hawkeye Mihawk suddenly crouched down to gather his strength, then leaped onto the ice with one foot, raising his black blade once more and soaring into the air!

The black light shimmered in the moonlight!

The second blue slash that flew head-on towards Hawkeye was deflected by him after he charged up his power!

The third blue light…

One after another…

Hawkeye Mihawk could only raise his Supreme Grade Sword to barely create a defensive barrier for his body!

next moment…

Even though Hawkeye Mihawk used his black sword and Armament Haki to defend himself, he was ultimately unable to stop the powerful force that was falling. The third blue light quickly shattered his figure!

Hawkeye Mihawk's body flew backward and landed on the ice, rapidly sliding backward. His hat was shattered, his once elegant swordsman's attire was now stained with blood, and his body was covered in open wounds...

Fresh blood quickly seeped out, staining the ice surface red!

Mihawk knelt on one knee, gripping the black knife tightly in his hand, and plunged it directly into a block of ice, barely supporting his body.

"What amazing power..."

Hawkeye Mihawk's hands trembled slightly as he slowly raised his head, looking up at Susanoo, which had not moved an inch so far!

This disparity is undeniably disheartening…

Because Hawkeye Mihawk had personally witnessed Sasuke Uchiha using Susanoo in battle, he had a vague idea of ​​just how much power this god-like figure could unleash…

Strictly speaking...

Uehara Naraku is now attacking casually, as if he were chopping vegetables in the kitchen, making this battle seem like playing with children…

However, even so…

Hawkeye Mihawk tried his best but couldn't stop it.

Uehara Naraku was even more surprised than Hawkeye Mihawk, because this was the first man who could withstand Susanoo's attack head-on, and even if he only deflected Susanoo's slash, the strength he displayed was astonishing...

That's...

Even today, that strike would be powerful enough to slice through the moon!

"What a mess..."

Hawkeye Mihawk reached out and planted his black sword in the ice, barely managing to stand up. He then suddenly stretched out his arms toward Susanoo!

This posture means he has given up resisting!

Mihawk's golden hawk eyes stared at Susanoo. He abandoned all defense and declared in a high-pitched voice, "Uehara Naraku, take everything I have! From the honor of being the world's strongest swordsman to the world's strongest black sword beside me!"

Are you serious?

Uehara Naraku's voice reached Hawkeye Mihawk's ears. He stood inside the crystal on the forehead of the towering Susanoo, gazing at the blood-soaked Hawkeye.

Hawkeye Mihawk's expression gradually returned to calm. Gathering his strength, he continued in a deep voice, "As a swordsman, recognizing the gap between oneself and a stronger opponent is the most basic ability. There's no need for me to continue... Kill me!"

Hawkeye Mihawk tilted his head back and slowly closed his eyes: "A swordsman can only fall standing. Kill me while I still have the strength to stand here!"

"Then I'll..."

A hint of seriousness flickered in Uehara Naraku's eyes. He resumed control of Susanoo and raised the massive ninja sword once more: "I'll grant your wish!"

Uehara Naraku looked down at Hawkeye and continued loudly, "As a reward for you, you dared to contend with the power of Susanoo with your mere mortal body..."

"Djokovic Mihawk, I acknowledge your strength. If it were merely a battle between mortals, you truly deserve the title of the world's strongest swordsman!"

"..."

A look of astonishment crossed Hawkeye Mihawk's face.

The next moment, a smile slowly appeared on the face of the world's strongest swordsman. Clearly, the enemy's recognition could make him die with a sense of satisfaction.

This life...

It seems there's nothing to regret... He's been practicing swordsmanship since childhood, aspiring to become the world's greatest swordsman, and he's already achieved that!

"but…"

Uehara Naraku's voice carried a hint of amusement. He flipped his hand, and a beam of light fell on Hawkeye Mihawk—the resurrection power that reversed time.

Uehara Naraku's voice reached Hawkeye Mihawk's ears again: "Mr. Mihawk, there are still several scores between us that haven't been settled properly!"

"Doraemon Mihawk, you don't think that death can atone for your desecration of Akatsuki's honor, do you?"

next moment!

Susanoo's sword suddenly fell!

While Hawkeye Mihawk was still in shock, his body was instantly cleaved by the Susanoo sword, ending his life!

A few seconds later.

Mihawk's figure reappeared on the ice. His brows furrowed slightly as he stared intently at his palm, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"What... is going on?"

Mihawk's brow furrowed more and more. He glanced at his clothes, then at the black knife stuck in the ice, as if everything that had just happened was not a dream.

Isn't he already dead?

Just as Mihawk was somewhat surprised by his situation, another golden light fell upon him.

Following closely behind…

The towering Susanoo swung its ninja sword and fell once more!

Mihawk stared in utter shock at the massive ninja sword falling to the ground. Had his injuries not been fully healed, he might have doubted whether he had actually witnessed such a scene…

No, I really did experience it!

That excruciating pain is still very clear in my memory!

The next moment, Mihawk felt the pain of his body being completely annihilated by the Susanoo sword, and his consciousness sank again!

A few seconds later.

Hawkeye Mihawk has been resurrected once again.

Just as he was still savoring his resurrection, a golden light fell upon him once more, and the great swordsman finally understood what had happened to him.

"Resurrection...or reincarnation?"

Hawkeye Mihawk's expression subtly turned strange. He subconsciously looked up at the Susanoo in front of him: "Am I going to be killed again this time?"

as predicted…

The towering Susanoo once again swung its ninja sword, striking him!

Hawkeye Mihawk suddenly realized something was different. Each time Susanoo landed in a different spot, he was being resurrected and killed again in a cycle!

Second update!
