Pirates: Fusion Pony, I am the Straw Hat Vice Captain

Hawkeye did not give a verbal response to Ji Shengling's arrogant words, but raised [Night] with one hand without hesitation and chopped it down.

Suddenly, a deep green slash that penetrated the sky rushed straight into the sky and slashed towards Ji Shengling's face.

"What... what is that!!!"

Usopp and Nami exclaimed that this attack that could not be explained by common sense actually appeared in front of them.

Can humans really do such a thing? !

Zoro, who was awake again, also widened his eyes. He wanted to engrave the attack of the world's number one swordsman into his mind until he surpassed him.

But facing this level of slash, Ji Shengling was still indifferent.

After all, this attack could not cause any harm to Ji Shengling. However, out of interest, he still raised his hand to form a [nothingness] hole before the slash. After the slash was absorbed by it, it slashed back towards Hawkeye through the distorted space.

Hawkeye was quick-witted and quickly added another sword. The two slashes collided with each other to form a powerful impact, which made Hawkeye himself retreat three steps.

His all-out attack was easily returned, and Hawkeye's excitement became stronger.

Ji Shengling would not leave Hawkeye any gaps. During Hawkeye's resistance, Ji Shengling raised his hand and pointed to the sky. An invisible force spread, followed by dense dark clouds and terrifying rainstorms.

The horrifying rainstorm even distorted the space, presenting an unstable state, but it only covered the battlefield of the two, and did not affect the Straw Hat Pirates and chefs outside the field at all.

However, the members of the Creek Pirates near the venue were not so lucky. Many pirates were cut into pieces by the rain that tore the dimension.

Even Hawkeye could only use the armed color to cover his whole body to barely resist, but even so, he was faintly cut with a few shallow scars on his body.

There is no doubt that this is the [Weather] that Ji Shengling opened.

[Heavy Rain].

This is a rainstorm that swept across the dimension.

That skill did not originally belong to Ji Shengling, but it was replicated by [Elements].

Hawkeye will not sit and wait for death. If the venue environment is not favorable to him, then he will naturally give priority to attacking the opponent, so as to make the opponent give up the control of the environment or directly capture the thief and the king.

Three sword qi with internal destruction of armed color and entanglement of overlord color were chopped out in an instant, followed by a heavy slash across the sky.

However, under the influence of the rainstorm that disturbed the dimension, the three sword qi showed irregular movement trajectories, passing by Ji Shengling strangely, and could not hurt him at all. The last heavy slash was shattered by the scarlet lightning that fell from the dark clouds.

This is [Thunderstorm].

But Hawkeye no longer had the ability to care about the previous slash at Ji Shengling. He had already sensed the crazy warning of his observation Haki and turned around to chop down with a knife, directly colliding with the claws of the giant dragon made of sea water, but in the end he was still slapped away by the claws of the water dragon.

[Turbulent Dragon Strike].

Since it was in the sea environment, it was natural for water-attributed moves to be used with ease.

Hawkeye's fighting skills were indeed good. Since long-range attacks didn't work, he considered close combat.

With the impact of being hit by the water dragon, Hawkeye used a slash to forcibly change his position of flying backwards, adjusted his position, raised his sword, and attacked Ji Shengling.

After arriving above Ji Shengling, Hawkeye's sword suddenly slashed down, but he saw a golden door appearing in front of him, and his heavy slash directly slashed on the golden door.

Ji Shengling behind the door had long disappeared, and with the explosion of the golden door, the violent light mixed with the blasting impact caused Hawkeye to fly backwards again.

At this moment, Ji Shengling, covered with lightning, appeared in front of Hawkeye. Without giving Hawkeye a chance to react, the golden lightning gathered in Ji Shengling's left hand.

[Door of the Temple] and——

"[Instant Thunder]!"

In a short moment, the angry thunder hit Hawkeye's chest. Even the world's number one swordsman spurted out a mouthful of thick blood with his pupils wide open in pain, and then was smashed into the deck under the force.

Ji Shengling's strength was well controlled. After removing the part that Hawkeye had to bear, the deck would not explode.

Suddenly, in less than ten rounds of fighting, the winner was revealed.

The rain stopped, the lightning disappeared, the dark clouds retreated, and the sea surface returned to calm.

Ji Shengling also returned to his original state and slowly came to Hawkeye's side.

"Unknown strong man... you are very powerful... I am convinced."

Feeling the numbness in his body and the burning pain in his chest, Hawkeye, who had lost most of his strength, gasped. Although he was beaten badly, his smile at this time was particularly bright.This look is just... exactly like Zoro!

"In fact, I admire you. You are at the top, but you just want to live a free life. When you meet a newcomer like Zoro, you can also lower your status to teach... Jorakore Mihawk, you are a man worthy of respect."

Ji Shengling leaned over and looked at the fallen Hawkeye and said seriously.

"If it was Kaido who came today, they would not survive a single move. You also have the ability to do so, but you did not do it. To be honest, if you had not beaten my crew, I would not want to have a conflict with you."

Well, this is actually a polite remark. Even if there was no Zoro, Ji Shengling would still want to beat Hawkeye.

Who told that Hawkeye was the only one who could show off in the East China Sea at this time, which just happened to allow Ji Shengling to test what the world's top level was like.

As a fool, he would always be beaten.

Now in actual combat, Hawkeye can probably let him exert a full strength of his existing strength.

Yes, very strong.

"It's my honor to be defeated by a strong man like you!"

Hawkeye laughed.

"Can you tell me your name?"

"Ji Shengling."

Ji Shengling stretched out his hand to pull Hawkeye up from the ground.

"Ji Shengling... Really? I remember, then, we'll meet again."

Finally, Hawkeye, satisfied with his interest, boarded the boat again and left. Although his embarrassed look was a bit funny compared to his appearance before, no one would dare to underestimate the world's number one swordsman.

Nami, Usopp, and even Sanji and others have a further understanding of Ji Shengling's strength, which really refreshed their worldview.

Luffy didn't care at all. His vice-captain was so powerful that he couldn't wait to be happy.

And Zoro looked at Ji Shengling with an even more strange look.

However, fortunately, Ji Shengling is not a swordsman.

Thinking of this, Zoro breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Shengling said no more and came to Zoro to provide him with [Life] to speed up Zoro's recovery.

As for the next battle, because of Hawkeye's withdrawal, the Creek Pirates will most likely need the Straw Hat Pirates to solve it.

However, Ji Shengling believed that Luffy would definitely be able to deal with these guys, so he ignored them and took Zoro back to the cabin of the Merry.
