Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

For a moment, Eveyya seemed to be dreaming.

It was not until long after Barrett turned and left that he woke up from his dream and smiled happily.

-

Meanwhile, on board the Sander.

Daz Bonis knelt on his knees, his forehead pressed against the deck, and said nothing.

Xia Le looked at Crocodile in confusion: "What is he going to do?"

Crocodile shook his head: "Although I am his superior, I don't know what he is thinking."

After saying this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Not that stupid!

It would be the biggest waste to eat the Quick-Cutting Fruit but not practice swordsmanship.

The man in front of him was able to fight the world's greatest swordsman to a draw in a head-on fight, so he was the best person to ask for advice.

"Please, Commander Xia Le, teach me how to practice swordsmanship."

Daz Bonis said in a low voice.

Although he tried his best to remain calm, people around him could still hear the nervousness and trembling in his tone.

Kuzan's snoring was still very clear. Apart from that, there was no other sound on the boat. Everyone's eyes were looking here.

"You want to teach me swordsmanship?"

Xia Le was stunned, staring at the man kneeling on the ground in front of him, and asked with a smile.

"Ok!"

Daz Bonis said.

A very simple, straightforward and taciturn man.

This is somewhat similar to how he used to be.

Xia Le fell into deep thought, tapping his fingers on the handle of the chair, making a slight sound.

After a long time, he suddenly laughed.

"I like your simple and straightforward personality."

"From today on, follow me and learn sword skills!"

Hearing this, Daz Bonis' body shook, and he kowtowed three times in succession without saying a word. The sound was so loud that a hole was made on the deck.

This means that he accepted this teacher.

Kuzan was still snoring, as if nothing could wake him up.

Xia Le had nothing else to do at the moment, so he tested Daz Bonis's strength first.

After discovering that the other party mainly relied on the ability of the fruit, his brows frowned slightly.

"Your attack is fierce, and your one-hit-kill style is very effective. Perhaps it has something to do with your identity as a killer."

"But over-reliance on the power of the fruit is also your biggest flaw."

"From now on, start from scratch. Forget that you are a devil fruit user and learn swordsmanship from scratch."

Daz Bonis was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily.

"A true swordsman, even if he doesn't have a sword in his hand, his body is his greatest weapon."

"Look!"

As he spoke, Xia Le put his index and middle fingers together.

There was no sound at all, and no other unnecessary movements were seen, just a simple stroke forward that seemed slow but was actually fast.

"Buzz!"

The void seemed to be cut apart at this moment, and then a huge ravine emerged above the undulating sea surface, stretching to the distance where the end could not be seen.

"hiss!"

On the warship, the people in Baroque Studio all gasped and looked at the man in front of them who was holding the gun in shock.

Daz Bonis' pupils contracted and he stood there in a daze for a moment.

"Kendo is more than just a reaction of physical strength."

"There is also an understanding of this world, of its rules, and of its artistic conception."

“Feel the breath of all things, listen to their voices, and let your body feel the rhythm of the world.”

"Use your eyes to see the veins of the world, and follow these veins with your sword."

"The knife in your hand can be used with ease, and can cut through everything you want to cut, or you can cut through nothing!"

Xia Le said with a smile.

There was confusion in Daz Bonis's eyes.

Kuina was also listening carefully. She had learned these things a long time ago and had also passed this stage of practice, but after revisiting them, she gained a lot.

Xia Le did not explain much, but waved his hand and an orange flew out from the cabin.

He grasped the hilt of the knife at his waist, pulled it out suddenly, and then cut down at the floating orange.

"Shh!"

The long knife cut through the middle of the orange with perfect precision.

Xia Le sheathed his knife and said to Daz Bonis with a smile, "Take a closer look."

The latter took the orange from the air with doubt, and his pupils contracted in an instant.

The orange in front of me, which had clearly been cut by a long knife, actually had no scratches on it and was still intact. The previous cut was like an illusion.

“When you are able to practice swordsmanship to the fullest, you can be considered to have entered the realm of swordsmanship.”

"Similarly, the power of your sword moves will also be greatly increased."

Xia Le smiled.

Daz Bonis was thoughtful. He recalled the scene not long ago when he was fighting against the pirate hunter Zoro and the other party cut open his iron body.

The other party seems to have already entered the door.

"I understand!"

Nodding slowly, he decided to try his best to experience this feeling.

Under Xia Le's guidance, Daz Bonis really seemed to have forgotten the ability of his fruit and swung dumbbells and practiced sword-wielding skills every day like a normal person.

When he felt tired, he would sit cross-legged and, under Kuina's guidance, comprehend a higher level of swordsmanship.

He longed to reach the level of Commander Xia Le, who could split the sea with just two fingers.

In a blink of an eye, a few days passed.

"It's right in front."

The lazy Kuzan suddenly sat up from the beach chair, stretched and looked forward.

Xia Le folded his arms with a faint smile on his face.

His eyes turned to the other side.

In the distance on the sea that is invisible to the naked eye, a ship flying a pirate flag is heading towards an uninhabited island in front of them.

Although the angles are different, the destinations of the two are the same.

This is also a strange phenomenon when sailing on the sea, perhaps because the stars under our feet are round.

"You don't have to go over there, I can handle it myself."

Kuzan picked up his bicycle and jumped off the boat.

In the blink of an eye, the guy was already on the bike.

Xia Le looked at his old friend and a smile appeared on his face.

"You guys go ahead, I'll be there later!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure turned into a flash of lightning and caught up with Kuzan who was riding a bicycle in front of him.

"Hey, hey, hey, my car can't carry two people!"

"Stop talking nonsense and ride faster!"

Two loud shouts were heard, and the originally stable bicycle shook a few times before it slowly rode forward again.

"Adding you as one person, it will take me a lot of effort!"

Kuzan's lazy voice sounded.

"You have so much to say about a 100-kilometer transportation with two bowls of rice."

Xia Le said with disdain.

"How about you kick it?"

Kuzan retorted.

"hurry up!"

The two generals were not polite at all when they quarreled.

A moment later, they arrived at the nameless island.

At the same time, a small boat with a sheep on its bow also came ashore.

"Ah?"

Kuzan slowly turned his head and looked at the group of people who jumped off the boat, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Xia Le grinned.

The Straw Hats.

Finally met.

Chapter 220 The Man Who Ended an Era

"Yo, Kuzan."

"We really encountered a group of pirates who are too powerful to be ignored."

Xia Le grinned.

The corners of Kuzan's mouth twitched, but he did not respond.

"We can't let this little guy who can defeat Crocodile go easily."

"Allowing such a horrible guy to run rampant in the world is simply the greatest contempt for justice."

Xia Le said again.

"It's enough!"

Kuzan rolled his eyes at him.

Then, he sat down on the lawn and fell into silence.

It seemed that they were thinking about how to deal with the Straw Hat Pirates who were coming towards them next.

Xia Le smiled lightly and sat down on a rock not far from Kuzan.

"So, how are you going to face the Straw Hats?"

Kuzan responded calmly: "What about you?"

“It’s not a difficult question for me.”

Xia Le grinned.

"When it comes to dealing with pirates, I mostly share the same views as that guy Sakaski!"
