Chapter 70

~4 min read 721 words

Looking at this outfit from head to toe,

compared to his identity as a Great Swordsman,

he looks more like a Western exorcist!

Compared to Li Xiao,

the other people present reacted far more intensely upon seeing that signature coffin-shaped little boat of Hawkeye's!

Their reactions were undoubtedly far stronger!

Krieg could no longer be bothered with the matter of seizing the sea restaurant!

At this moment, his face was full of terror,

his legs trembling,

and his first instinct was to turn tail and run!

If he weren't currently on the Baratie,

he would probably have already piloted his last remaining pirate ship and fled on the spot!

Speaking of which,

this unlucky kid actually hadn't done anything,

he simply felt that he was already strong enough,

that the East Blue could no longer contain him,

so he wanted to go to the Grand Line to seek his fortune!

As a result,

after he arrived at the Grand Line,

just because he glanced at Hawkeye one extra time in the crowd,

he was chased all the way by the bored Hawkeye!

His fleet, which originally numbered a full five thousand men,

was chased and hacked at by Hawkeye the entire way,

hacked all the way back from the Grand Line to the East Blue,

the entire fleet was hacked to pieces,

nearly hacking Krieg down to a lone commander!

And so,

Krieg's dream of going to the Grand Line to seek his fortune

was thoroughly shattered before it even began!

Oh, right,

if nothing unexpected happens,

his dream of rallying his forces in the East Blue and making a comeback

hasn't even started yet,

but in a moment it should also be shattered!

He was even knocked out and carried away by his own subordinates in the end!

Furious, trembling, cold,

when will I, Captain Krieg, ever stand up again! (manual dog head)

Apart from Krieg,

at this moment, the one who also recognized Hawkeye's identity was Zoro, standing off to the side.

But compared to Krieg,

Zoro's face showed no sign of panic,

only a look full of Solemn,

with a hint of fighting spirit faintly gleaming in his eyes!

Hawkeye's coffin-shaped little boat seemed to drift with the waves,

yet its speed was not slow in the slightest,

and in no time it arrived before everyone.

He was seen slowly swinging a slash at the only pirate ship Krieg had left,

the next moment,

the pirate ship split apart with a boom from the middle,

shattering into countless pieces of various sizes floating on the sea surface.

Seeing this,

the terror on Krieg's face deepened several degrees,

throughout this entire flight,

every single one of his pirate ships had met the same fate,

reduced to countless fragments by a casual slash from Hawkeye!

If that slash had landed on his body,

dying eight hundred times over would not be enough!

Krieg lowered his head to look at the sea surface,

in that instant,

he even felt an impulse to jump into the sea and escape!

Just as Klick was still trembling with lingering fear,

Zoro stepped forward,

resolutely raising his blade to challenge Hawkeye!

His dream is to become the world's greatest swordsman,

and Hawkeye is currently recognized as the world's greatest swordsman,

and the way to become the first,

is to defeat the first!

Although Zoro also knew full well that his current strength was still far from being Hawkeye's match,

he still swung his blade at Hawkeye without the slightest hesitation!

Because he wanted to try,

to see just how vast the gap between himself and him truly was!

Regarding this,

Li Xiao was quite appreciative!

This is probably what is called the spirit of drawing one's sword,

knowing the enemy is stronger, yet still resolutely drawing the sword,

even if one falls, one must become a mountain, a ridge!

With this spirit present,

coupled with Zoro's flawless talent,

standing at the position of the world's greatest swordsman in the future is merely a matter of time.

But then again,

compared to Hawkeye's appearance of seemingly always showing off,

Zoro's path of growth appears rather miserable!

Especially from then on,

almost never once having full health along the way,

bandages have nearly become part of his very being,

making it look like a berserker stacking buffs!.
