Great Voyage: Cartoonist of the Straw Hat Pirates

After all, he's so boring.

He was so bored that he cut up all the pirate ships of the Creek Fleet just for fun because he was woken up by the people of the Creek Fleet.

Now that I see that Zoro is still holding back, of course I’m very interested.

"Yes, the next move is a secret technique passed down from my master. If you still use this knife, you might die!"

Zoro looked at Hawkeye seriously.

As he spoke, he grasped the hilt of the Wado Ichimonji sword with one hand, with the tip of the sword pointing diagonally downwards.

Then, he grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands and slowly pulled it to the side of his right cheek.

"Secret technique...? I like it!"

What could be more interesting to a true swordsman than the clash of swords?

The secret technique passed down from the master is a true reflection of the other master's swordsmanship! !

it is good!

very good!

Hawkeye raised the cross knife and took a stance.

From ignoring it just now to taking a stance now, Hawkeye seems to be taking it more seriously than before.

Ok……

Let's just say I take it seriously~~~

Seeing that Hawkeye was still fighting with a knife, Zoro stopped reminding him.

He moved his feet and slashed forward with the Wado Ichimonji in his hand!

brush!

Vertical chop!

brush!

Horizontal chop to the right!

brush!

Left side chop!

A cut based on the real world~

Add to that the two simultaneous, overlapping slashes, so fast that they disregard the concepts of time and space! !

The blades approaching from three directions almost simultaneously completely surpassed various elements such as speed, accuracy, and feints, and were almost comparable to magic!

This is Sasaki Kojiro's ultimate move - Swallow Return!!

Ok?

When facing Zoro's Swallow Return move, Hawkeye's expression suddenly changed! !

he……

The world's greatest swordsman~

Whether it is the training of Armament Haki or Observation Haki, they are at the top of the pyramid of this world~

He was able to easily deal with Zoro's full-strength attack with a cross knife because of his super powerful Observation Haki.

However, when he faced this move, his face became very ugly~~~

The observation Haki was brought to its peak at this moment!

He seemed to have a premonition that his head was about to be chopped off!

Under this crazy warning, Hawkeye immediately switched from offense to defense without hesitation.

But then, an even greater shock came!!!

Eagle Eye's incredible discovery~

His observation Haki has fully locked onto all of the opponent's attack trajectories~

But... so what!!

Because no matter what, he couldn't defend against these three attacks at the same time.

At least one of the blows will inevitably fall on his neck.

"How can it be!!"

With a loud cry of shock in his heart, Hawkeye didn't have time to think about it. He casually gave up the cross knife in his hand and instantly drew out the black knife.

With unparalleled speed and strength, he forcibly suppressed the past!

boom! ! ——

The terrifying sword intent suddenly erupted at this moment, like a hundred thousand artillery shells exploding at the same time!

In just a moment of collision, Hawkeye appeared more than ten meters away, and Zoro was instantly blown away by this terrifying sword intent!

BANG! ! —

Zoro fell to the ground, as if his internal organs were displaced by the sword energy.

But he still held the Wado Ichimonji tightly in his hand.

It was a knife, but it was more than just a knife...

It is also the ideal that Kuina places on him!

He grabbed the knife, and even though he was covered in wounds, he used the knife to force himself to stand up.

"As expected, he's the strongest..."

His eyes fell on Hawkeye opposite him, and Zoro realized the terrible gap in hard power.

"..."

Hawkeye's face twitched slightly as he heard Zoro's praise.

This was the first time he blushed after hearing someone praise him since he became famous.

He touched the left side of his neck with his right hand.

over there……

A tiny scratch hurts a little!

This was caused by Zoro's attack just now.

If the opponent had not yet mastered Armament Haki and Observation Haki, the consequence of this attack would not just be a shallow scratch on his neck.

Swallow returns to the realm, invincible within three meters!

I'm not just saying this~~~

Although Hawkeye changed to the black sword Night in time, it was a last-minute change of sword after all, and he was ultimately unable to completely break Zoro's secret technique of Swallow Return.

Of course, this doesn't mean that as long as the sword is long, you can break the Yan Fan~

Quite the contrary!

If you don't have absolutely powerful strength, even if your sword is long, you will still end up being defeated by Yan Fan.

If Hawkeye used the Swallow Return Secret Technique at this time, and Zoro used the Black Blade Night to defend himself, even if Hawkeye used the cross knife in his hand, as long as he got close, Zoro would die! !

Hawkeye knew very well that he was able to turn the tide just now because of the sudden release of powerful domineering aura, which affected Zoro's moves and gave him a chance to retreat.

Although he won the duel, from Hawkeye's perspective, he actually lost!!

He slowly put the black knife back into the scabbard behind him, and then picked up the cross knife that he had just thrown on the ground.

He looked at Zoro and said, "Swordsman, what is your name?"

"Roronoa, Zoro!"

Seeing Hawkeye put away his sword, Zoro also put the Wado Ichimonji into the scabbard.

Although he was seriously injured at this time, he still forced himself to stand.

"Roronoa... Zoro..., okay!"

Hawkeye pondered the name, memorizing it deeply in his mind. He spoke again, "Just now during the battle, you said that in the process of training with your teacher, you learned an attitude towards combat. What is that attitude?"

When Zoro heard this, the voice of Sasaki Kojiro unconsciously appeared in his mind again.

He said sincerely: "Even a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit!"

Even a lion fights a rabbit with all its might...

A complex expression appeared in Hawkeye's sharp eyes.

Once upon a time~

When he was still a passionate young swordsman, wasn't he a person who "uses all his strength even if a lion fights a rabbit"?

· ·Request flowers 0 ·······

However, now, after sitting on the throne of the world's greatest swordsman for too long, I'm getting bored...

When he met a rookie, he couldn't help but underestimate his opponent.

However, Zoro's words "A lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit" was a slap in his face!

I want to teach the rookie swordsman from the East China Sea a lesson with my cross knife.

result~

Not only did Huang hurriedly discard the cross knife, but even after he pulled out the black knife, he was still left with a trace of scars by the opponent.

In terms of strength comparison, if Zoro is a rabbit, then Mihawk is a lion!

No, to be more precise, it's a beast even more ferocious and powerful than a lion!!

But even so, he still lost in that move just now...

What a slap in the face~~~

"bring it on!"

At this moment, Zoro suddenly opened his arms and pointed his chest at Hawkeye.

Hawkeye asked in confusion, "What?"

"I challenged the world's greatest swordsman. If I lose, the price I'll pay is my life~"

Facing life and death, Zoro seemed very calm.

The only thing he felt guilty about was not being able to fulfill his promise to Kuina.

"Lose? Who said you lost?"

Hearing this, Hawkeye shook his head slightly.

"Didn't Zoro lose?"

"Of course! He can barely stand up, is that even a question?"

"I wasn't killed instantly by Hawkeye's attack just now. I guess Hawkeye showed mercy, right?"

"But why did Hawkeye say that?"

"I don't know, I'm confused too!"

……

Hearing Hawkeye's question, the people around him all showed black question mark faces.

If this isn’t losing, what is?

Do you still want to say that you lost?

"What do you mean..." Zoro stared slightly.

Hawkeye said, "A duel between swordsmen loses its meaning if we only focus on the outcome. What was the name of that move you just used?"

"Swallow returns!" said Sauron.

"it is good!"
