Karl didn't quite catch what it was, but it looked intimidating.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl casually held Raven across his chest, blocking Zoro's slash. The clash of weapons made a crisp sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Technique is enough, but the power is lacking. Use more strength, I can still take it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro's face darkened. He roared and raised his two swords, slashing fiercely at Karl's shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Clang~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl blocked it again, then kicked Zoro in the chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thump, Zoro flew backward and fell heavily onto the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Power is so-so, but there are too many openings. Continue!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro immediately bounced up from the ground, looking at Karl with angry eyes: \"Damn it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Three Sword Style: Oni Giri!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro held his swords in a cross-shaped stance with his left and right hands, unleashing a slash as if to clamp down on Karl, while the third sword was used to seal off Karl's space for dodging.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It was a pity that Karl had no intention of dodging at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ding~\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The tip of Raven's blade touched Zoro's two swords, and the sword he held in his mouth immediately collided with Raven's edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl twisted his wrist, drawing a circle with Zoro's blades, and then used a flick of skill...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Both swords flew into the sky and then fell onto the floor, making a clattering sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"A sword is a swordsman's life, yet you can't even hold onto your sword. Is this the courage with which you challenge me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro looked at the swords on the floor with a pale face, his lips trembling slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"As you are now, you don't even count as a third-rate swordsman. Young man, wanting to step onto the peak of the sword path isn't just about talking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro didn't speak, keeping his head down and his face dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After a long time, Zoro raised his head and asked in a hoarse voice: \"Then, what should I do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Your foundation is good, and your technique is also quite good, but your physique is too weak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Whether it's a swordsman or anything else, physique is of the utmost importance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro swallowed: \"You mean, my training isn't enough?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl didn't answer, his left hand condensing a ball of golden holy light, which merged into Zoro's body.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"This, this is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The moment the holy light merged into his body, Zoro felt warm all over, very comfortable, but that wasn't the point.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The point was that he clearly felt he had become stronger, as if he had endless energy all over his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Now your physique has been improved by several levels. You can try again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Don't use your Three Sword Style or whatever Two Sword Style. Just use the most basic, most basic move. Come on!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro nodded, held the Wado Ichimonji he had been biting in his mouth in his hand, took a deep breath, and unleashed a plain, ordinary downward slash.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the process of swinging, Zoro already understood why Karl said physique was of the utmost importance.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Just this ordinary downward slash had more power than his Three Sword Style ultimate move!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Is this the effect of an improved physique?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ding~\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"How is it? Does it feel different?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A smile appeared on Zoro's face: \"Yes, I feel it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The stronger the physique, the stronger the power, and the stronger the slash I release!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl had an expression of \"a child worth teaching.\" For a swordsman to improve strength quickly, improving physique was the most stable method.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Look at Big Mom. She never claimed to be a swordsman, but she could rely on brute force to kill a bunch of so-called Great Swordsmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This was probably the power to break all laws.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl was also gradually developing in this direction, reaching the realm of returning to simplicity.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Clap, clap, clap~\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Koushiro, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but applaud: \"Vice Admiral White Raven's words are truly enlightening. Sigh~ I have seen too many swordsmen pursue technique for the sake of technique, eventually walking down the wrong path.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mr. Koushiro, the meal is ready. Please invite the guest to eat while it's hot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Koushiro looked at Karl and extended his hand toward the door: \"Vice Admiral White Raven, please.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Zoro, you come too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro shook his head: \"No, Master Koushiro, I, I want to be alone for a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm, that's fine too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Karl and Koushiro left, Zoro sat cross-legged on the ground, staring blankly at the Wado Ichimonji in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Kuina, do you know? Today I fought the Navy Great Swordsman Karl. Although I failed, I learned a lot from him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Give me a little more time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Behind the door, Koushiro took off his glasses, wiped away his tears, let out a long sigh, and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Vice Admiral White Raven, take care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl grinned and waved at Zoro and Koushiro: \"See you again if fate allows!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Raven, let's go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Caw!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Not until Karl's figure completely disappeared into the horizon did Koushiro look at Zoro and say: \"Zoro, you'll be an adult soon. What are your plans for the future?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro looked at Koushiro calmly: \"Kuina's death anniversary is coming up. After paying my respects to her one last time, I'm planning to go to sea.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Oh? Going to sea? The sea is very dangerous! Are you prepared?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Zoro's mouth curled slightly as he looked at the sea ahead: \"Yes, but only in this way can I fight the swordsmen on the sea and defeat them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Step by step, I will walk to the highest peak of the sword path.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Only then will I be qualified to face Mr. Karl, and face the world's greatest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A look of approval appeared in Koushiro's eyes, and he patted Zoro on the shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Go, Zoro.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Sky Island, Upper Yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Through the efforts of all the Kuja people, the new home had already taken shape. In another month or so, they might be able to rebuild Amazon Lily here.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Sister, this is the gold we found on the island. We're rich!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Marigold pointed at the mountain of gold on the side with glowing eyes, extremely excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hancock just waved her hand: \"Calm down, it's just a little gold, no need to be so excited.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"By the way, take some gold to use as building materials! This is our new home, we must not let others look down on us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes, yes, Sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Caw!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hearing this familiar call, Hancock looked up at the sky abruptly, her expression becoming very happy: \"Darling! Why are you here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl had originally said he would come over in a few days. He didn't expect it to be so soon. Could it be...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl swore it was definitely not because he was craving Hancock's new uniform. He just came over to... er, supervise the work. Yes, that's it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hehe, anyway, there's still a day or two until the knighting ceremony, no rush. I'll leave then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hancock's eyes crinkled into a line, and she hugged Karl's arm and acted coquettishly: \"Darling, how about accompanying me for a walk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"It would be my honor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1212,"2026-06-16T20:20:51.518Z","2026-06-17T08:56:49.806Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","6b16e495ccdbabaaa49451f5cab177fa3abaee65a18e871b7bbc8a05792b994d","one-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-chapter-182","one-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-chapter-180",397,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-cover.jpg"]
