Pirate Dark Master

Although the number of participants was smaller, the second round of the Kendo Competition lasted for a full month. After a month of continuous fighting, many swordsmen made great progress and made breakthroughs.

The most dazzling among them is the red-haired Shanks, who became a great swordsman in one fell swoop, and Shanks is only twenty years old now.

A twenty-year-old great swordsman is very rare in the sea, which is enough to show that his powerful talent in swordsmanship has made countless people feel ashamed.

The final 128 candidates for promotion were also born. In addition to the great swordsmen, those who can be included on the list are top swordsmen. Even the worst ones can be considered strong in the new world.

Among them, the number of great swordsmen is as high as fifty-nine, nearly half of them. The sword competition has attracted countless powerful swordsmen to compete for fame, money, or to improve their own strength.

At this time, the world was surprised to find that it did not expect that this world has so many great swordsmen. Great swordsmen are unimaginable to many people, and they do not even know this realm. Even ordinary swordsmen

Hao, in their eyes, is already a strong man and the pinnacle.

This also shows that the attraction of the sword competition is so strong that many famous or unknown swordsmen are attracted to it.

The number of these great swordsmen is only the number shown. Among the remaining swordsmen, it is not known whether there are any great swordsmen who have hidden strength and have not shown it.

After all, the Night Pirates cannot have everyone's information.

At the same time, the candidates for the "World's Greatest Swordsman" are being hotly debated. In addition to the three candidates confirmed early, "Eagle Eye" Mihawk, "Demon Slayer" Suiyuan Kunichi, the mysterious swordsman of death,

There are also some powerful swordsmen who can challenge the status of "the world's greatest swordsman".

The most famous one, and the one who is considered to be the most qualified to win the "World's Greatest Swordsman", is the Demon Slayer Great Swordsman, Sui Yuan Kunichi. He has never lost a battle along the way and defeated his opponents with great ease.

His all-consuming sword intent makes people feel frightened, and many swordsmen surrender directly when facing him.

At his peak, he had experienced more than twenty years of hard work on the road to become a great swordsman. He was far beyond the level of "Eagle Eye" Mihawk, who had only been in the realm of great swordsman for a few years.

Moreover, Jiyuan Guoyi also had a record of fighting against Golden Lion Shiji. Although he lost in the end, his current strength will definitely be stronger, and he is undoubtedly the strongest in the sea.

Combined with these factors, even though Hawkeye Mihawk's strength is not weaker than that of some veteran swordsmen, it is even stronger.

In terms of winning rate, he is only 30% compared to Jiyuan Guoyi.

Another mysterious murderous swordsman is the secret agent codenamed "Gentleman" by CP0. Everyone has a bad impression of him because this swordsman is so cruel and has a terrifying murderous nature. Every time he faces an opponent,

They will all be killed in a cruel way.

He doesn't even give others a chance to surrender, and kills the contestants before other opponents surrender.

Although it is common for swords to be blind in the competition and to die in battle, the situation of this swordsman was completely intentional. In the entire kendo competition, at least half of the dozens of contestants who died were dead.

in his hands.

As a result, the opponent he fought with in the end did not even come on stage and gave up the fight directly.

But it has to be said that this mysterious swordsman is very powerful, which also leads to another powerful swordsman, a blind swordsman.

The realm of the Great Swordsman, combined with his powerful Devil Fruit ability, has powerful strength, and the mysterious swordsman can't do anything to him.

Unexpectedly, this blind man who often hangs out in casinos actually hides such great strength. Some casino owners around the world are very surprised that this blind man is a frequent visitor to casinos, especially famous casinos.

There is no doubt that he is a strong man among the people.

The battle between the two great swordsmen was very fierce. The strong gravity limited the speed of the "gentleman", making the gentleman very uncomfortable, and his sharp slashes were also blocked.

In the end, the "gentleman" took the initiative to admit defeat, bringing the battle to an end. Although he was not defeated, he did not want to continue the fight, and there would be no results if he continued to fight.

His goal is only the "Demon Sword" Seven Star Sword, and he doesn't want to expose himself too much. Originally, he was very confident in his own strength, but now, there are many competitors.

Although the demon sword is unknown, with its strange ability to confuse people's hearts and absorb blood, it is very likely that someone wants this sword.

If someone competes with him for the Seven-Star Sword, he will need to use some means to do so. Of course, he will not attack at the battle pyramid, but wait for the sword competition to end before grabbing the Seven-Star Sword.

With his strength and the help of cp0, it is entirely possible to get it.

The Blind Swordsman became famous, and Yixiao's name was also known to many people.

This strong man hidden among the people has extraordinary combat power.

Both of them are undoubtedly on the navy's list. However, Yixiao is a target that can be won over, while the mysterious swordsman killer is on the navy's blacklist. Such people who take pleasure in killing and act recklessly cannot join.

He is from the Navy, and the Navy will not accept him.

The Navy did not know the identity of "Gentleman" CP0, and "Gentleman" did not realize that he was in the same camp as the Navy. Among them were two unlucky navy men who met him and died beside "Gentleman"

in hand.

If the navy knew about it, it would be even more angry.

Of course, if the "gentleman" keeps his hand, it will make people doubt his identity and whether he has any py dealings with the navy.

The navy is still very efficient, and the bounty for this swordsman has been paid out, up to 300 million beli.

I don’t know what the world government will do if CP0 knows about it. Will our own people hurt each other?

There are four rounds in the kendo competition. In the third round, the 11 contestants with the highest number of wins will advance from the 128 contestants.

In the fourth round, which is the final final, each swordsman will have to fight against each other. The one who wins all ten games will win the title of "The World's Greatest Swordsman".

The process of the kendo competition is destined to be very long. It took half a month for the first round, a month for the second round, and almost a month for the third round.

The battle between the strong has a one-tenth chance of advancement. As the number of participants decreases, the intensity is beyond imagination.

Everyone has a life-threatening attitude, giving their best, very serious, and does not allow for any mistakes. Victory or defeat is often a matter of one thought.

At the same time, in order to prevent themselves from being seriously injured and affecting the subsequent battle, they will take the initiative to admit defeat after falling into a decline.

After all, the strong is strong and the weak is weak. Unless there is only a slight difference in strength, it is possible for the weak to defeat the strong.

The intensity of the kendo competition is definitely no less than that of a war. The further you get to the back, the stronger the sense of anticipation becomes, and at the same time, you become more nervous. After all, you have watched each battle all the way.

The first and second rounds are still watched with an appreciation attitude, but the next two rounds need to be watched seriously.

Similarly, the Kendo Competition is undoubtedly the world's top event, and the whole world is paying attention. Some "star" swordsmen have naturally been born among them. Many of them have their own supporters. In addition to the betting tables of the Battle Pyramid, people all over the world

All casinos have opened betting markets.

Through constant fighting, the eleven promotion spots were finally announced.

These eleven people are the ones that attract everyone’s attention.

They are also destined to be known to the world. They are "Eagle Eye" Mihawk, "Demon Slayer" Kuniichi, the mysterious swordsman who kills.

The "Blind Swordsman" smiled, the great names of the Wano Kingdom, Shigetsuki Ushimaru, the "Shadow Dragon" Redeat, and the Wano Kingdom samurai Takeji Amazuki.

"King of Heaven" Rhine, Admiral "Kizaru" Porusalino, "Uken-style" Kenshin Himura and the swordsman of the double-sword style, "Black Swordsman" Suguha Kiritani.

Among them, there are two samurai from the country of Wano.

Yixiao, Ledyard, Rhine, and Porusalino, although they are Devil Fruit users, they have perfectly combined Devil Fruit abilities with their own swordsmanship to create their own swordsmanship.

General "Kizaru" is surprising. I didn't expect him to be so hidden. After all, in other people's impressions, his most important thing is the ability of the Shining Fruit.

During the battle along the way, Porusalino did not use his ability to fly around, he just condensed a lightsaber and then fought all the way up.

This allowed people to see his swordsmanship prowess. Even other people in the navy did not know that Porusalino had hidden such a powerful swordsmanship.

Himura Kenshin and Kiritani Suguha are both powerful swordsmen. They are not very famous on the sea. They are also powerful swordsmen hidden among the people. They are not very old, less than thirty years old, but their powerful swordsmanship is very sharp.

.

Himura Kenshin's identity was found out and he was the 14th generation descendant of the "Uken-ryu", also known as the "Hiten Mitsurugi-ryu".

The sword-fighting style is a powerful swordsmanship school that has existed for hundreds of years. Its founder is a very powerful swordsman, but he rarely appears on the sea and did not expect to participate in the swordsmanship competition.

Kiritani Suguha is a lone ranger on the sea. He studied in a kendo gym established by a swordsman. Without a strong inheritance, he can become so powerful, which is enough to show that he has a strong talent.

The much-anticipated red-haired Shanks was unfortunately eliminated. The competition was too fierce. After all, he had just become a great swordsman and was very young. If he grew up in two or three years, he would have a good chance of reaching the final spot.

wheel.

Unfortunately, there is no if. It is very difficult to fight out among the many great swordsmen.

The same goes for Shiliu, Mostima and the others, as well as Bista, whose skills are not as good as others and have not fully grown up, which makes people feel a little regretful.

However, they also gained sufficient insights from each battle, and the path for the future was clear. Although they did not directly break through and become a great swordsman during the sword competition like Shanks, it would not take long. This is

Something to be happy about.

The youngest among the promotions are "Shadow Dragon" Redyard and "Eagle Eye" Mihawk.

Redyard is two years older than Teach, now twenty-three years old, and Mihawk is now twenty-two years old.

Redeat possesses the amplification of the Phantom Beast Devil Fruit, coupled with the development of his abilities, so he is powerful and has an advantage in physical fitness.

Fighting relies on overall strength, not just swordsmanship.

Mihawk is not a person with abilities. The era of great pirates has now begun for five years. Mihawk spent his first year in the "Paradise" and became a great swordsman after entering the new world. He became a swordsman when he was almost eighteen years old.

The great swordsman then honed his skills in the new world for several years, constantly challenging powerful swordsmen and masters, and has come a long way in the path of swordsmanship.

But before being promoted to the fourth round, it also went through a hard battle.

Many people can see that it is not enough for Mihawk to obtain the title of "The World's Greatest Swordsman". He still needs time to grow.

In the original work, Mihawk became the world's greatest swordsman, and ten years after the Great Pirate Age began, he had a spectacular showdown on an island with the red-haired Shanks, who was close to the Four Emperors.

It's probably also a kendo event.

After seeing the strength of those who advanced, the age gap and the strength gap are still quite obvious. The favorite to win the championship is undoubtedly "Demon Slayer" who succeeded Yuan Kunichi. His strength is approaching the peak and he is the world's top powerhouse.

There may be some gaps between him and the emperor-level experts in other aspects, but in the way of swordsmanship, he is undoubtedly at the peak level of a great swordsman.

The strength of the others is even worse, and the gap between them is mostly in time.

For a relatively clear form, the title of the world's greatest swordsman basically belongs to Kuniichi Jigeon. However, at his age, he has passed the stage of youth and exuberance. Kuniichi Jigemon pursues progress in the way of swordsmanship.

, the realm of the legendary sword god, not just a title.

This title is an honor, but also a kind of pressure. Countless swordsmen will stare closely at you and challenge you.

If the strength is insufficient, it will be taken away by latecomers.

It is really a pity. The combat power of those who advance has obvious stratification. The Jiyuan Kingdom is on one level and the others are on the other level. If the Kendo Competition is held five or six or seven years later, the competition at that time will definitely be very fierce.

The excitement, the gap is huge, and it is impossible to guess who the final winner is.

Of course, this division of combat power is subject to the restrictions of the rules of the Kendo Competition, which prohibits Devil Fruit abilities other than swordsmanship.a

For kendo competitions, the title of "the world's greatest swordsman" is secondary. The most important thing is the fierce battles between these great swordsmen.

This title is inheritable and can be obtained by defeating the swordsman with this title.

So even if you can't get first place in the Kendo competition, it actually doesn't matter, because this title will not disappear, it is there, waiting for you to take it.

Every person who advances is preparing for the battle carefully. Even if they are not the opponent of Jiyuan Guoyi, the second and third Ming can still compete. After all, the top three can fight with the three witnesses.

Every battle with the strong is a huge treasure, especially under enough pressure, you can seek breakthroughs.

Although there are only eleven people who advance, the rest time is still three days.

On the largest screen of the battle pyramid, the countdown has begun.
