Chapter 90

Johnny and Joseph were completely stunned, their mouths agape. 7

Everything that just happened felt like watching a magic show to them. 6

"Ah, I feel like I'm dreaming too."6

Zoro flexed his muscles, the biceps on his right upper arm thicker than a great tree. ⑹

"Suddenly having such powerful muscles, growing nearly a meter taller, I feel like I've turned into a monster!"

Speaking of the word monster, Zoro suddenly smiled, a look of ambition gleaming in his eyes.

"But this is exactly what I want."

"In this world, what beast does not become a monster!"

Having said that, he returned to the deserted island and faced off against Mihawk.

Zoro held Wado Ichimonji in his mouth, gripped Johnny and Joseph's swords in both hands, and said confidently:

"Mihawk, be careful! This time, I won't play children's games like before!"

Mihawk smiled and said:

"It's good that you have such fighting spirit; your momentum is strong too. Compared to just now, there is a world of difference."

"However, I, the world's greatest swordsman, am not as fragile as you imagine!"

Zoro grinned: "That's the best!"

Whoosh!

Zoro moved, his speed reaching the extreme; in the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Mihawk.

All three swords struck out together.

Mihawk, unhurried, raised Black Blade Yoru to block in front of him.

Clang!

The huge metallic clash indicated how immense the power of Zoro's attack was!

Crack!

The ground beneath Mihawk's feet actually shattered.

"What tremendous strength!"

"But it is still not enough to defeat me!"

Mihawk's arm surged with force as he swung his blade, forcing Zoro back.

Then, without pausing even a moment, using the momentum of the swing, he turned and struck out again.

Buzz!

A massive emerald sword light shot forth!

Zoro's expression was Solemn.

He could finally perceive just how formidable the strength of the world's greatest swordsman, Mihawk, truly was!

In the previous fight, the opponent probably hadn't even used one-thousandth of his power!

"This kind of battle is exactly what I hoped for!"

Zoro trembled with excitement.

All three swords blocked the sword light Mihawk had unleashed.

"Break for me!"

Zoro shouted loudly, and relying solely on his immense strength, he tore the sword light apart!

"Three-Sword Style: Tiger Hunt!"

Zoro descended like Mount Menghuxia, striking down at Mihawk from above.

Faintly, sword intent even formed the shape of a tiger's head!

This Tiger Hunt was many times stronger than the last one.

Even Mihawk could no longer treat it lightly.

Clang clang clang!

The two clashed for dozens of exchanges in an instant.

Overall, Mihawk still held the upper hand.

Because,

whether in combat experience or swordsmanship technique, Mihawk was far superior to Zoro.

Zoro relied mostly on the immense brute force granted by the Dragon-level Monster Cell, along with his extreme speed and reaction ability, to clash head-on with Mihawk.

In terms of understanding swordsmanship, Zoro had actually made little progress.

Boom!

When the two clashed with another ultimate move, the ground collapsed.

Zoro panted heavily, and Johnny and Joseph's swords shattered.

Mihawk panted slightly as well.

"Truly a World's strongest; even becoming a monster, I cannot defeat you."

Zoro took a deep breath, removed Wado Ichimonji from his mouth, and sheathed it.

"Let the final move decide the winner; this is a technique I just comprehended."

A look of anticipation appeared in Mihawk's sharp eyes.

"Then let me see it, kid!"

Zoro closed his eyes.

And in the instant he opened them, a chilling sword light flashed; it was almost impossible to tell when he had drawn his blade.

"So fast!"

Hawk Eyes was shocked; he actually felt a rare, intense threat!

Clang! Clang!

Sword light and blade shadows.

Except for Luo Xing and Dahe, no one knew how Zoro and Hawk Eyes clashed with this move.

They only knew Zoro's figure, from in front of Hawk Eyes, suddenly appeared behind him.

On the half-drawn Wado Ichimonji, a trace of fresh blood stained the blade.

Hawk Eyes glanced at the tiny wound on his abdomen, looked at Zoro, and asked:

"What is the name of this move?"

"One Sword Style: Iai: Death: Lion's Song!"

As Zoro's voice fell, a large spray of blood suddenly erupted from his back.

But for his powerful physique, enhanced by Dragon-level Monster Cell reinforcement, such a wound was not too severe.

Zoro smiled bitterly:

"I lost again; I've tasted defeat twice in the same day."

Hawk Eyes was speechless.

Roronoa, you are just a Mao Touxiaozi who set sail not long ago; you don't even know what Haki is, yet you've already managed to cut me. Are you not satisfied?

Although Hawk Eyes never used Haki, the fact that Zoro could wound him was enough to prove how terrifyingly rapidly Zoro's strength had advanced.

Furthermore.

From Zoro's Iai just now, Hawk Eyes also sensed a domineering intent, like a precursor to the awakening of Conqueror's Haki.

It was precisely this domineering force that left Hawk Eyes no time to defend, resulting in a wound from Zoro's slash.

Hawk Eyes could almost be certain that, given time, when Zoro mastered Haki and honed his swordsmanship techniques to even greater depths.

Surpassing him would be nothing impossible.

Hawk Eyes sheathed the Black Blade Yoru and said to Zoro:

"I will continue to wait for you at the position of the strongest."

Then, he turned his gaze to Luo Xing.

"Your inventions are becoming increasingly terrifying. Can you tell me, what is your ambition?"

Luo Xing raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly:

"What ambition could an inventor like me have? I merely wish to change the world through technology."

Change the world?

That would mean overthrowing the World Government.
