Pirate: I am King Luffy

"It may not sound good, but I don't think you can beat me," Luffy said.

"Hmph, so what? Meeting an opponent is something to be happy about," said Kuina.

"You are really confident in your own abilities. I don't think I am worse than you."

"It's very troublesome. I have no interest in fighting." Luffy said worriedly.

"You are so beautiful, if you cry, I will feel bad too."

Luffy thought about Kuina's stubborn temper. He knew that if he defeated her, she would hide secretly and drop the little pearls. He felt a little excited just thinking about it. The pleasure of bullying others surged in his heart again.

"Stop talking nonsense. I've grown a lot!" Guina was getting angry and her face was slightly flushed.

"I'm already grown up, I'm eighteen, and I'll be nineteen soon!"

She said about her age, "Do you understand? Compared to me, you are still a minor!"

What Tashigi noticed was that Kuina would cry, which was the part that Uta didn't mention.

Kuina was about to go berserk, but she also had to save her dignity. When Luffy told her that she would cry if she lost, she couldn't sit still. She took a step forward, grabbed the collar of Luffy's red T-shirt with both hands, and looked at him viciously.

"I'm going to teach you a lesson!"

Uta, who was singing on the stage, noticed them and looked over there with some concern. What were they doing? Why did Kuina become so excited?

Although she cared a lot, she couldn't leave. There were fans everywhere seeking her singing. She could only sing while wondering impatiently what they were doing. Was Kuina's movements too close to Luffy?

What happened to her? She became so excited...

"Hey, Kuina, you're too close..."

Luffy pushed her shoulder. From his angle, he could just see the swan-like smooth and slender white lines of her neck and the slightly exposed collarbone.

Her chest, which rose and fell slightly with her breathing, almost pressed down on Luffy's chest. The loose kimono perfectly outlined her round shape, which made people imagine a lot.

"I understand. I accept your challenge. Is that all?"

Luffy said, his black hair falling down and making his face itchy.

Nami stared, a little at a loss. She wanted to pull the captain away, or push Kuina away, but considering that Luffy and Kuina were friends many years ago, she couldn't do it so directly and rudely.

Kuina snorted, sat up straight again, and gently tucked her drooping hair behind her delicate little ears.

Luffy was just sitting up when he noticed that the students in the dojo were also secretly looking at Kuina, including Zoro, with an unusual blush on their faces.

She is worthy of being called the dojo goddess Kuina. After all, she is a rare female swordsman, and she has outstanding strength and appearance. It would be strange if she is not a goddess.

Kuina noticed that most people were looking at her, so she restrained the smile she had when joking with her friends and glanced around coldly. When the students met her cold gaze, they all lowered their heads to eat.

Kuina's beautiful face as cool as moonlight, her voluptuous figure, and her cold and arrogant temperament that keeps strangers away are enough to make her the dream goddess in the dojo and the white moon in people's hearts. However, her impressive strength is enough to dispel the thoughts of most people and make them feel ashamed of themselves.

Seeing them like this, Kuina snorted.

"We are all boys, but we are always so timid. It's really funny."

Nojiko looked at them, poking the food on the plate with her fork, and thought, Luffy has so many female friends, can Nami, his silly sister, handle it all?

"Tashigi, please help me get the sword." Luffy said to Tashigi.

His sword is still stored on the sword rack in the training room.

"Can't you get it yourself?" Nami quietly pinched Luffy's leg.

She specifically looked for the places that Luffy's shorts couldn't cover, then reached inside, grabbing the more tender soft flesh and twisting it.

Under such an explosion of tons of force, Luffy also felt a little pain.

He patted Nami's hand and said, "This order is a reward for Dashigi, okay!"

"Look how happy she is running to the port..."

Nami snorted slightly.

I couldn't help but ask, "What is your relationship with Kuina?"

"Ordinary friend, rival, senior sister?" Luffy said confidently.

He just saved Kuina's life.

"Really?" Nami looked at Luffy with some doubt.

"I've only been here for a month or so. Not even as long as I've been in Kekoyasi Village."

The banquet was gradually coming to an end, and Uta returned to his chair somewhat tiredly. Dashigi handed the sword to Luffy, and the greatsword rested in Luffy's arms for the first time in a long time.

The crowd did not disperse, but more and more people gathered together.

This is a village of swordsmanship and sword forging, with a strong swordsman culture.

Kuina is the village's top female swordsman and a genius since childhood.

Luffy is also a genius. He defeated Kuina eight years ago. Now the two are fighting again, and everyone wants to know the ending.

"There are more and more people..."

Luffy held the king sword, and neither side entered the dojo to compete. Instead, they directly cleared an open space in the center of the banquet.

Shigetsuki Koushiro serves as the referee.

Both sides performed swordsman etiquette to each other. Luffy hadn't done this for a long time, so he felt a little unfamiliar with it.

Kuina held the plain white scabbard and gently drew the famous sword from her waist. Her movements were as gentle and soft as a trickle of water. When she had it completely drawn out, she held it high above her head with both hands.

The bright and round moonlight shines on the earth.

Luffy's eyes moved slightly, a good posture.

Tashigi's heart was pounding and her eyes were fixed on the Wado Ichimonji.

It appeared, the big sharp sword of the twenty-first grade!

刀身长88cm刀宽1.9cm刀锋约有0.9mm宽，刀柄长22cm宽2cm。

Tashigi read the data of Wado Ichimonji.

Kuina raised her hands high, and the kimono robe on her wrists fell off due to gravity, revealing a small part of her fair and delicate arms.

This kind of posture is Tang Zhu.

The people present thought to themselves.

It was easy to read what Kuina wanted to do.

It's a knife fight.

Even Nami and Uta could easily read Kuina's posture.

"You are still so strong-willed, Kuina." Luffy narrowed his eyes and looked at the Wado Ichimonji sword.

Luffy feels that his strength has already surpassed Kuina's, but Kuina is a swordsman and wields a famous sword like Wado Ichimonji, so he has to be careful when dealing with her. No matter how strong the muscles are, they will be cut like tofu when encountering a famous sword.

He pressed the jaw of the sword with his thumb and pushed it forward. With a "click" sound, the sword was unsheathed.

The King Sword is much wider and larger than the Wado Ichimonji, and is a very heavy sword.

Guina took a half step forward with her left foot, almost parallel to her right foot, and walked forward with a slight smile on her lips.

"Kuina has already reached the highest level, the most secret level among all secret levels, higher than all levels. The reason why she didn't fight with Tashigi first is because she was afraid of being discovered."

Zoro stood aside, holding three famous swords, looking at the two people in the field with a smile.

"Our understanding of each other is still stuck in the same place as eight years ago, but eight years is enough to change a lot of things."

"I'm really looking forward to it. Will Kuina win?"

"Extreme Legend?" Dashigi was a little curious about this word. She instinctively felt that the people on this island were very strong.

"You are very strong, so I will use all means to defeat you. Be careful, Luffy!" Kuina said.

"Well, come on over here."

Luffy held the king's sword for the first time in a long time, only to feel it was cold. A familiar yet strange feeling surged in his heart. Was his hand unfamiliar again?

This shouldn't happen. This sword...

Luffy had a lot of little thoughts in his mind.

From the side of the Wado Ichimonji blade, the cold moonlight reflected from the blade and pierced Luffy's eyes. He subconsciously closed his eyes due to the arc of light and had no thoughts anymore.

Guina took a step forward, got closer, and chopped down the Tang bamboo with great momentum.

As fast as pale lightning, it was in front of Luffy in the blink of an eye, causing the audience to exclaim in surprise. This was a slash with a real weapon. If one was not careful, he would die on the spot.

Moreover, Luffy's eyes were sealed by the light attack, and the situation was critical. It seemed that he was at a disadvantage and would be split in two in the next second.

A cry was heard in the air, and the paper painting had already warned Luffy of the crisis. Luffy was not in a hurry, but dodged the attack sideways. The icy sword energy and the sharp edge of the famous sword passed by each other, and the energy blew Luffy's clothes flying.

The pale arc of light missed, and Luffy's hand moved at this moment.

The hand holding the king's sword suddenly drew out the sword, making a light and sonorous sound. In an instant, the sword was sharp and shining with cold air. The sword was heavy and powerful, and as fast as lightning.

Clang——ding——

Sparks flashed in the air as the two sides collided dozens of times in a split second, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard.

The white arc blade flickered in the night, drawing a clear trajectory. The sword energy enveloped the two of them, forming a huge storm that shot out in all directions, covering an area of ​​several meters on both sides, shocking the onlookers.

So strong, I can’t beat him!

Dashigi instantly judged the difference in strength between herself and Kuina. When Tang Zhu missed, she turned around and fought with him dozens of times at close range. Her speed was not as fast as hers, and she was afraid that she would not be able to keep up after the fifteenth fight, resulting in a flaw and eventually being beheaded.

This only calculates the speed of the knife, and has not yet calculated the force.

Both of them are so strong!

The popping sound and sparks subsided for a moment.

The two separated again, the distance between them increased by fifty meters.

Kuina stood in the distance and put the Wado Ichimonji back into the plain white scabbard at her waist.

"Is it over?" Wuta looked at the two of them eagerly.

"No, just the warm-up is over." Zoro crossed his arms across his chest, his arms were muscular, and there was a smile on the corners of his mouth.

It is also quite interesting to watch such a fight.

"Hey! This is just a warm-up!" Uta was surprised.

In her opinion, this was already quite intense fighting power.

"So strong..." Luffy swung the sword in the air, adjusting the feel of his hand.

Kuina's strength surprised him a little, which meant that her speed and strength were both very strong. He adapted a little, opened his eyes, and locked onto Kuina's figure.

"But I'm not used to slashing with my eyes closed."

Luffy smiled as he thought about something else. When Kuina collided with him, she didn't seem to be affected by the force.

Every time he struck, a very heavy force was transmitted, but Kuina actually took it all.

Because I was hit by the moonlight, I had my eyes closed at the time and couldn't figure out Kuina's movements. I could only rely on the close-range airflow changes caused by the paper painting to lock on to her.

"You used to fight me very seriously, but I didn't expect you to use some weird moves now."

When Luffy thought about Kuina in the past, she would sit upright and look at him, and his casual stretching would make her overly excited.

"Do you still think my duel is too orthodox?

Didn't I tell you I've grown a lot?"

Kuina closed her eyes and completed a breathing exercise, thinking about the brief fight with Luffy before.

Then he opened his eyes again, his eyes bright:

"I have always followed what you said and never lost to anyone else!"

Kuina looked at this opponent whom she had not seen for many years. Since they parted, she had been practicing swordsmanship continuously and training from morning to night every day.
