Voyage: Reborn Seraph, Defected At The Beginning

"It's hard to improve by practicing on your own, so go find Rayleigh to practice. He happens to be a master of swordsmanship as well."

Qin Ge stayed in Sabaody for a few days and felt bored, so he took the initiative to find Rayleigh.

They soon found each other in a bar.

Rayleigh has a strong sense of knowledge and senses Qin Ge's hidden terrifying aura, and is surprised: "This child looks only thirteen or fourteen years old, why does he have such a powerful Haki."

Qin Ge sat next to Rayleigh, ordered a glass of beer, and said while drinking: "Who would have thought that the right wrist of the former Pirate King would actually work as a coater here."

Rayleigh was even more surprised and said: "You know me, who you are."

He suspected that Qin Ge might not be as young as he looked, perhaps it was some kind of fruit ability that made him younger.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for such a small child to have such a powerful Haki.

"My name is Qin Ge, and I'm here to challenge you."

Qin Ge is blunt.

"Challenge me, sorry, I'm old."

Rayleigh is not interested.

"Regardless of life or death, let's compete in sword skills."

Qin Ge said.

Rayleigh hesitated for a moment and thought: If it was just a competition, it would be fun.

On the sea, the challenge is often a matter of life and death, so he refused at first.

And Qin Ge is not a person who likes to work hard.

"Okay, let's find a quiet place and have a good discussion."

Rayleigh said.

Both of them are extremely fast and cannot be seen clearly by ordinary people.

After a while, we arrived at the seaside far away from the city.

Rayleigh pulled out the long sword, flicked it a few times, and said, "I haven't fought with anyone for a long time, and my sword skills are a bit rusty."

Qin Ge's weapon is a recently crafted double-edged sword, three fingers wide and one meter and forty-six meters long.

In the world of pirates, most swordsmen use single-edged swords, and Golden Lion is a rare double-edged sword + two-handed sword master.

The characteristic of the double-edged sword is that the sword moves are flexible and changeable, and the thrusting moves are sharper.

The two-handed sword further enhances the variety of moves.

There is a proverb that goes like this: With a single sword, you can see your hand, but with two swords, you can see away.

The two-handed sword combined with Lion Fruit's body skills complement each other perfectly.

However, there is still a certain gap between Qin Ge and Golden Lion. He cannot fully display his sword skills and body skills, so he only uses one sword for the time being.

"I still believe you when you say that your old bones are loose. Your sword skills should be more sophisticated."

Qin Ge said.

"maybe."

Rayleigh's charming smile.

"Start, I'm coming."

Qin Ge reminded him, and then rushed forward.

He first stabbed the heart and hit the vital point.

This attack method is very dangerous, and you are defenseless. If the other party is not afraid of death, it would be cool to adopt a resistance method of dying together.

Of course Rayleigh would not die with him, so she ducked sideways and attacked his neck with a knife.

Qin Ge did not use the fruit ability at this time, so he immediately changed his stabbing to a horizontal slash, forcing Rayleigh to give up the attack and dodge.

Rayleigh said dissatisfied: "He said he didn't care about life or death, but he played so hard as soon as he came."

Qin Ge said: "Because I know your strength, there is no need to hold back. If you are simply comparing sword skills, I am not your opponent yet."

Rayleigh suddenly said: "It turns out that you are not here to compete, but to hone your sword skills with me."

Qin Ge said: "Almost."

After saying that, he rushed forward again.

Rayleigh was a little unhappy about being used as a sharpening stone, so she became violent.

The two sides moved quickly and kept slashing at each other, so fast that no one could be seen with the naked eye.

If an ordinary person were at the scene, they would only be able to see the air waves aroused by the person's rapid crossing, as well as the sparks and sound waves produced by the slashing.

Qin Ge made continuous thrusts, but Rayleigh used his knife to deflect and quickly moved his body to dodge.

Occasionally seizing the opportunity, Rayleigh will also use slashes, but the power is not very strong.

Apparently he didn't intend to kill Qin Ge either.

In such a fierce battle, Qin Ge was inevitably hit, but neither side attacked with all their strength. They could defend themselves by using Haki's body protection.

Qin Ge swept back Rayleigh, suddenly held the sword with both hands, and swung a golden slash.

Rayleigh's eyes changed slightly, and he quickly dodged away, splitting many trees behind him and leaving a ravine.

Qin Ge jumped up and stabbed Rayleigh in the eyes.

Rayleigh swung his sword to block it, and kicked Qin Ge in the abdomen.

Qin Ge stepped on the air in mid-air and used a technique similar to Moonwalk to quickly reverse.

"Double-edged sword, and this golden sword energy, who are you Golden Lion?"

Rayleigh asked.

Roger had a fight with Golden Lion back then, so he was very familiar with Golden Lion's sword skills.

There are many types of sword energy.

One is purely physical airflow.

One is Haki turning into sword energy.

The great swordsman's sword energy is a combination of Haki and sword energy.

Sword Intent is a bit of a mystery. It is the product of the blending and sublimation of a person's strength and will.

The sword energy of the great swordsman will show different colors and characteristics.

This color and characteristics are often related to the user's personality.

The golden sword energy of the Golden Lion is similar to the metallic character in Eastern literature, and is mainly used for killing.

Fast speed and strong cutting power.

After the golden sword energy was emitted, it flashed past like golden light.

It can also be transformed into a crescent-shaped sword for longer range attacks.

However, in actual combat, it is better to emit sword energy directly. Although the Crescent Sword Blade has a long attack range, its hit rate is low.

"Golden Lion, you can be considered my teacher."

Qin Ge said.

"So you are his disciple. He is not dead yet. Did he ask you to come to me?"

Rayleigh said.

"That's not important. What's important is to hone your sword skills."

Qin Ge said.

"If you don't want to say it, forget it. Since you are Golden Lion's apprentice, I won't be polite."

Rayleigh's originally relatively calm eyes suddenly flashed with a flash of dark red thunder and lightning, becoming sharp and showing an astonishing momentum.

"This is, Conqueror's Haki!"

Qin Ge said.

"That's right, I didn't plan to use it originally, but the Golden Lion caused us a lot of losses back then. Since you brought it to our door, just think of it as atonement for the Golden Lion."

After Rayleigh finished speaking, he took the initiative to attack.

With the release of Conqueror's, the surrounding air seems to condense, giving people a suffocating pressure.

However, with Qin Ge's strength, he will naturally not be affected.

He held the sword with both hands and moved forward without dodging. He swung the sword upward to match Rayleigh's straight slash.

clang!

The sword energy of both sides collided at zero distance, and a burst of strong energy burst out, sweeping hundreds of meters in radius.

The sword energy flew wildly around the two people, cutting off a large number of plants.

The ground is also ravaged and messy.

The stalemate lasted for five or six seconds, but Qin Ge couldn't hold on anymore and was knocked away by the powerful impact.

Just as he was about to lose his balance, Rayleigh gave chase.

Qin Ge used the fruit ability, quietly returned to the fighting posture, received another fierce chop from Rayleigh in mid-air, and landed on the ground.

Rayleigh frowned when he saw this and said: "How can you restore your posture in the air?"
