The Warrior of Love

"You must not die. It's quite interesting to talk to you." Luffy laughed.

"You guys take care too...then let's stop here."

Jiang Liu waved his hand: "Goodbye, Straw Hat——"

The words stopped abruptly, Jiang Liu's pupils suddenly shrank, he noticed something strange faster than anyone else present, and his body reacted instinctively.

"Get down!"

The Sun Blade emitted a cold light and came out from the sheath at the waist, the sharp blade instantly cutting through the air.

The invisible wave turned into a sharp blade, passing over everyone's head in the blink of an eye, and hit the huge figure that appeared there at some point in time.

Zheng!

The strong wind caused a sound like metal collision. The explosive turbulence blew up everyone's hair, and the scene was in chaos for a while.

"what?!"

Even Zoro failed to react in time. He only managed to draw out his double swords and hold them in his hands after Jiang Liu's attack hit the opponent. Zoro, who didn't know Jiang Liu well, was shocked.

"Who is this guy? He is so much faster than me!"

However, he, who had not yet come into contact with domineering power, did not understand that it was not that Jiang Liu's sword-drawing speed exceeded his, but that Jiang Liu sensed the crisis in advance and had more time to prepare.

Of course, even if it was just a competition of speed, Jiang Liu would never lose, because he was extremely good at sword-drawing and slashing.

Although the power level of "Demon Slayer" is slightly lower, the development of sword skills is actually not weak. After Jiang Liu combined the swordsmanship of Demon Slayer with the physical strength and domineering of the pirate world, he can even emit something like "sword energy", which is as powerful as a real sword.

The Straw Hat guys were also experienced in battle. Even though they were suddenly attacked, they still quickly dispersed, surrounded the newcomers in the center, and each prepared for battle.

As the air currents gradually subsided, the outlines in the dust became apparent, and everyone's breathing quickened.

He was an extremely tall giant with an inhumanly sturdy figure, at least five or six meters tall, like a little giant. Even in the world of One Piece where there are many strong men, he was very special.

The facial lines were as cold and hard as a stone statue. He was wearing black clothes like a moon bear, wearing gloves and holding a thick book. Just standing there was like a towering mountain, making people breathless.

What is striking is that despite his tough appearance, he wears a cute bear-ear hat on his head that does not match his image.

"Why...are you here?"

Nami, who was quite brave, broke out in cold sweat and her face instantly lost all color.

"Have they been chasing us?"

"Tsk!" Zoro clenched his teeth, veins on his face popped out, but he said nothing and just glared at the other person fiercely.

Sanji couldn't laugh anymore. He seemed to be observing the enemy calmly, but he was unaware that the cigarette in his hand was about to burn his hand.

Luffy was the only one in the group who was confused. Although he could feel a strong aura from the other party, he didn't understand why his companions had such a reaction.

"who is he?"

"Come to think of it, Luffy was unconscious at the time so I don't know."

Robin spoke word by word: "He is the one we told you about, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea - Bartholomew Kuma!"

Not to mention the reactions of the Straw Hat guys, Jiang Liu stared at the giant man who suddenly appeared in front of him. He was moved by the oppressive feeling as heavy as a mountain, and he couldn't help but tightly clenched the Sun Blade in his hand.

Originally, he thought that he was quite strong in "One Piece". After obtaining the Devil Fruit, he would probably be much stronger than the current Luffy, and could barely be considered as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

But the giant man in front of him, who was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, brought him extraordinary pressure, and in an instant he realized that he was no match for him!

"I actually met the real one right away instead of the pacifist..."

That’s right, just one look at Jiang Liu made it certain: this is not the robot called Pacifist, but the Tyrant Bear himself!

However, Jiang Liu was secretly relieved because of this. From some information in the original work, it can be seen that Kuma has a close connection with the Revolutionary Army. He works for the World Government on the surface, but in fact he has helped Luffy and others many times, even after "selling" his body to the World Government.

This person has no ill will towards the Straw Hat Pirates, and even if a fight breaks out, he won't really kill them.

"is it you?"

A magnetic voice was heard that was inconsistent with his sturdy appearance, and the giant man lowered his head to look at Jiang Liu.

His observation Haki worked automatically, and some kind of stimulation hit his brain, causing Jiang Liu to reflexively raise the Nichirin Sword and activate his immature armament Haki.

At the same time, Xiong had taken off his gloves and pointed his palms, which had thick fleshy balls like those of a wild beast, at Jiang Liu.

Although he looked big and strong, his movements were actually extremely agile. Jiang Liu could clearly see every detail of his hand raising, but for some reason he couldn't dodge it.

"Pressure Cannon..."

boom!

The air was compressed to the extreme, forming a bear paw-shaped translucent shell, which instantly bounced through the atmosphere and pierced through Jiang Liu's body with unparalleled impact force.

Bang!

The half-baked Armament Haki was defeated without any surprise, and the man's body was thrown away like a piece of paper...

"Jiang Liu!"

Luffy roared angrily and punched towards Tyrant Bear with great force. Zoro and others also launched attacks together.

Even though he and Jiang Liu have not known each other for a long time, Luffy is not the kind of person who measures friendship by time. In his eyes, there are only two differences: liking each other and disliking each other. For someone like Jiang Liu who he has recognized as a friend, Luffy can help him without hesitation.

Having witnessed the bear's power before, everyone was afraid to be careless and used their strongest means to restrain the bear for a while.

"It's not a show, you really want to kill me!"

He lost consciousness for a moment, but Jiang Liu quickly regained consciousness while in mid-air. Without even having time to check his injuries, he tried his best to adjust his posture and landed on the ground as lightly as a cat.

Although he was subjected to such a terrifying air pressure shock, he was only slightly injured because he promptly assumed a defensive posture to relieve the force before being hit. His Observation Haki allowed him to foresee the situation and not take all the damage head-on. In addition, his Armament Haki hardened him, so he was finally not killed by one blow.

At this moment, his mind was extremely clear. The memories of watching "One Piece" in his previous life, combined with his experiences in this world, made him understand Bear's thoughts almost instantly.

Originally, the bear appeared when the Straw Hat crew encountered the admiral and faced a life-and-death crisis. It seemed like an attack, but in fact it protected Luffy and the others.

But this time, it was not Luffy but Jiang Liu who caused the incident. The Straw Hat Pirates have not yet been found by the admiral, so Kuma naturally does not need to risk confronting the admiral. He only needs to solve the problem in secret.

To be specific, it is to get rid of Jiang Liu before the general arrives!

Kizaru is not Akainu. If the culprit of the incident has been dealt with, he probably won't be obsessed with supernovas like Luffy.

Kuma and Luffy have a history, but he is a complete stranger to Jiang Liu, so there is no reason to show mercy!

"Push the pressure cannon."

More translucent bear paw shells were fired, and the instantaneous explosion was like a meteorite falling from the sky, knocking all the members of the Straw Hat Pirates away. Even Zoro and Luffy, who had a bounty of over 100 million, were not spared.

This is certainly due to the fact that Zoro's injuries have not yet healed and the Straw Hat Pirates were suddenly attacked and unable to perform at their best, but it is undeniable that Tyrant Bear is overwhelmingly powerful!

Boo!

There was a slight vibration in the air, and the mountain-like body suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the next moment it strangely appeared in front of Jiang Liu.

"farewell……"

The gentle voice could not conceal the fierce murderous intent. A translucent palm print appeared on the bear's palm and slowly imprinted on Jiang Liu's face.

call!

With this swing, the bear's palm attack missed!

Jiang Liu dodged the palm wind with his head tilted, his feet standing still, but as if he had predicted the future, he avoided the tyrant's fatal blow with the smallest movement.

"Don't underestimate me, uncle!"

The Immortal Slash was unsheathed, Jiang Liu held two swords in his hands, his indifferent pupils reflected the tall figure of Xiong, and the invisible perception field covered the space.

After eating the fruit of insight, he used his observation Haki to its fullest extent for the first time!

The movement of the wind is clearly visible;

The heart is beating like the morning bell and evening drum;

The circulation of blood is like glass;

Seeing and hearing three thousand things, understanding the world——

"cut!"

On the shelf testimonials!

Well, I want to tell you the latest information here——

This book will finally be on the shelves this Friday, which is tomorrow!

Ah, it’s actually going to be put on the shelves. Thinking back to when I uploaded the first chapter, I can’t help but sigh that time flies (laughs).

I really want to thank Xi Da for her help, and all the book friends who have been with me along the way.

Although the cook is still a failure, he has finished writing two books with more than 2 million words (although the book "Dimension Traveler in Type-Moon" has been temporarily suspended...)

If you are an old book friend of Chuzi, you should know that I don’t have any other abilities, but at least I still have some credibility. I will not stop updating without reason, nor will I end the writing process, so please feel free to read it.

As long as there are still book friends who support the cook, I will have the motivation to keep writing and never give up easily. To put it bluntly, this is the modesty of a man and an author (?^^?);

And, at the end, the chef also wants to say shamelessly: Please be the first to order, dear readers!

Please book friends who are able to do so please place an order in the next one!

-

As for updating the series… Honestly, it’s been a bit difficult for me these past few days. Unfortunately, all kinds of things have been happening at the same time, which has made me feel very confused. It’s been really hard for me to keep updating the series.

However, even so, I also want to repay the book friends who have always supported me, so I will try my best to update as much as possible tomorrow and burn out everything I have for you all!

Okay, everyone, see you in the book!

Chapter 89: The Shadow of Despair (Please order first)!

Zheng! Zheng!

The sound of steel crisscrossed each other, and a cross-like scar was engraved on the bear's chest.

The next moment, the clothes were torn apart, brilliant sparks were released violently, the flesh and blood body was cut by the blade, revealing steel-like muscle tissue... No, can that really be called flesh?

Although it was not completely transformed, it had indeed been implanted with something like an alloy skeleton, and even such a swift slash was unable to cut it in half.

"I haven't been hurt by anyone in a long time." Xiong first looked down at the shallow bloodstain on the palm of his hand, then looked at Jiang Liu who had already distanced himself.

"Your ability is very interesting."

Jiang Liu silently clenched his sword, his heart beating non-stop, transmitting hot blood to every corner of his body, keeping him in a fighting state at all times.

The tyrant Bartholomew Kuma is said to be the king of a certain country, but he is also one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and is one of the top ones among them.

His Meatball Fruit has been developed to the extreme and can bounce off everything.

Not only can it bounce off the atmosphere to create powerful shock waves, it can also bounce itself off to achieve the effect of teleportation, or even the very abstract "bounce damage". In a sense, it is an invincible ability that combines attack, defense, and healing at the same time.

Simple physical damage is unlikely to be effective against it. Even a swordsman's slashing attack cannot break through the meat ball's defense and will be easily bounced off.

Theoretically, even if Jiang Liu's sword was wrapped in Armament Haki, it could only hurt the skin at most and could not cause any substantial damage.

But in reality, Jiang Liu not only caused damage, but also touched the inside of the body, almost seriously injuring the tyrant.

——A transparent world.

This was originally a skill obtained by the swordsman in "Demon Slayer" who reached the highest level of training. It is similar to the effect of the Byakugan in Naruto. Dynamic vision and insight are greatly increased, and even the blood flow in the enemy's body can be grasped.

However, the Transparent World is different from the Bloodline Limit. It is a move for mortals. It has a huge cost to use and is extremely difficult to practice successfully.

Learning to see through the world means that swordsmanship is only half a step away from reaching the realm of "ghosts and gods".

Jiang Liu had not yet mastered this skill, but when he obtained the power of the devil fruit, his five senses and mental acuity were greatly enhanced, and his observation Haki was also sublimated. He naturally reached the "state of transparency" like flowing clouds and water.

However, it is much more powerful than the original version. Jiang Liu can see not only the enemy's movements and blood flow, he can even capture "invisible" things!

The flow of life breath, the fluctuation of emotions, the domineering power between the tangible and the intangible... In the end, what he found was a "flaw".

The most vulnerable point on this tall and burly body was also where the breath of life was entangled. He concentrated all his strength to force a breakthrough, and the result was that the blade pierced through the tyrant's flesh and blood.

At that moment, the defense of the Meatball Fruit was almost invalid. If Bear hadn't blocked it with his most powerful palm, Jiang Liu might have been able to create a miracle.

But now that I've lost this opportunity, there's nothing more to say.

The reason why he was able to injure the bear was partly due to his sword skills, but the other and more important reason was that the bear was careless!

Or perhaps Xiong didn't take Jiang Liu seriously, which allowed him, a swordsman, to launch an unavoidable attack at a nearly close distance.

After becoming alert, with the bear's ability, it would never give Jiang Liu a similar opportunity.
