Chapter 375

This was Raven's ultimate form.

Because Raven was also a fruit user; it, too, would awaken.

"Bloom!!!"

"Caw!!!"

A massive golden flying slash instantly tore the sea apart, carrying the terrifying power to destroy everything, moving forward without hesitation.

But, Mihawk's sword was not bad either.

That ghostly green flying slash, like the sharpest spear in the world, fiercely stabbed forward.

*Boom~* A loud noise.

Even the floating restaurant in the distance felt this tremor.

"My god! A tsunami! It's a massive tsunami!!! Someone save us!!!"

"Aaaaaah!!!"

The violent collision kicked up a hundred-meter wave. I'm afraid it wouldn't take long before it crashed onto Baratie, instantly smashing it into pieces.

Zoro gritted his teeth, instantly assuming a fighting stance, attempting to cut the giant wave with his own blades.

It was just...

*Swish, swish, swish~*

Three blade lights flashed, and that nearly hundred-meter-high giant wave was actually cut open, turning into fragmented water blocks, falling powerlessly onto the sea.

This feat naturally came from Karl. As for why he still had time to take action, the answer was also very simple: because he won.

"It's the Navy Hero! He saved us!"

Karl jumped lightly onto the deck, waving to the guests of Baratie.

"I am very sorry. I originally just wanted to have a meal here; I didn't expect to bring you such big trouble."

"It's nothing, it's nothing..."

After showing some military-civilian camaraderie, Karl finally had time to catch his breath. He hadn't slept for a day and a night; his heart was tired!

As soon as Ain came in, she sat directly beside Karl and asked quietly: "How is the situation? What about that guy Mihawk?"

"How could it be? I won, he lost, it's that simple."

"As for where he is... I really don't know. But with his vitality, he shouldn't be dead yet, but he is definitely seriously injured."

Ain looked at Karl with some admiration: "You are too amazing. Eh, since you defeated Mihawk, doesn't that mean you've become the world's greatest swordsman!"

"Hmm... I suppose so. So many people watched this battle! If nothing goes wrong, it will be in the newspapers tomorrow."

The feeling of becoming the world's greatest swordsman was actually just like that; nothing special.

The benefits... well, the title is louder. Now he is both a Navy Hero and the world's greatest swordsman. By the way, he is also the world's most handsome man. A bunch of titles—eh, putting it that way, it seems pretty cool.

There are, of course, downsides. Karl defeated Mihawk, so naturally, countless swordsmen will want to defeat Karl. In the future, maybe he'll be stopped by some swordsman while just traveling, and then invited to a duel between swordsmen.

*Knock, knock, knock. *

Ain's brows furrowed. Didn't the owner here say this room was very private? Why is someone still disturbing them?

"Come in."

Sure enough, it was Zoro.

He looked a bit excited, his eyes still full of fighting intent, the kind that made him want to fight Karl immediately, but he held back.

He had watched the battle between Karl and Mihawk in its entirety, so he naturally knew what level of swordsman he was at right now.

In short, whether it was Karl or Mihawk, neither was an opponent he could defeat right now.

But he still came. Nothing else, he just wanted to ask how Mihawk was.

"Are you here to ask how Mihawk is?"

Zoro nodded forcefully: "Yes, I want to know, is he still alive?"

"Hmph, hmph~" Karl chuckled, pointing to the sea outside the window and saying: "I can tell you for sure, he is still alive. If you want to meet him on the sea, just work hard to become stronger!"

"No, you are the current world's greatest swordsman; my target should be you."

"No, no, no, Zoro, you are wrong. Now you want to challenge me? Sorry, you have to defeat Mihawk first. Otherwise, you are not qualified to challenge me, understand?"

Zoro immediately became anxious, hurriedly saying: "But, didn't you accept my challenge before?"

"Does that count as a challenge? Wasn't it you who insisted on being taught a lesson by me? I don't think that counts as a challenge."

"Alright, alright, remember your current status. For the sake of Luffy's grandfather, I won't hold it against you. Ain, see him out!"

Ain stood up from her seat, staring coldly at Zoro: "Pirate, are you going out yourself, or should I invite you out? You choose!"

"I, I will go out myself."

Zoro took a deep look at Karl, turned, and left the private room.

"When did you meet this guy?"

"It's been a while. At that time, he was still very thin..." ===== CHAPTER 377 =====
