Chapter 1422 Mihawk VS Longinus!
The island of peace.
The city of flowers under the blue sky and white clouds.
The breath of spring always fills the whole city.
The pink and white fragrance of cherry blossoms permeates every corner of the air.
Men, women, young and old, walking on the street can smell the rich fragrance of flowers by taking a deep breath.
The magnificent Shogun Tower stands tall above the giant trees, with the towering Fujiyama Mountain behind it as the backdrop.
In the banquet hall on the top floor of Shogun Castle, Mihawk is receiving Shanks.
Gion, wearing a pink kimono, sat quietly beside the former, listening to their conversation, and occasionally adding wine and food to her husband's cup.
Sitting next to Shanks were Qin Su and Susanoo, who had just participated in the Top 100 Tournament.
As for the 'Eight-Tailed' Ox Ghost, he went to Nine-Tailed Island to reminisce about the past with Nine-Tailed Lama.
"I'm glad you figured it out."
Mihawk listened to Shanks' inner thoughts and a happy smile appeared on his face.
The most important thing is to protect everything in the present, rather than pursuing the truth of history and excessively demanding absolute freedom. The current world government is also worth my service.
As for the dream about Captain Roger, let me forgive him in the underworld after I die!
Listen, this is what Shanks just said to him.
I have really figured this out!
"Yeah, I've figured it out. I don't want to be a bystander anymore." Shanks nodded, then smiled bitterly and said, "I just don't know if Lord Im will allow me to come back, and if he's willing to use me."
Mihawk remained silent because he couldn't guarantee what Im's attitude would be.
After all, Shanks had previously entered the 'Land of the Gods' on his own.
but
"Lord Im must know about your affairs in the Adventurer's Association. Since you are safe and sound now, it means that he doesn't have much ill will towards you. Besides, didn't Doflamingo say that Lord Im is willing to see you?"
Mihawk's words seemed comforting, but they actually made sense.
Shanks knew this too, but Mihawk then said, "I'll go with you this time. It just so happens that I haven't seen Master Im for a long time."
This touched Shanks greatly. Mihawk really regarded him as a friend.
"Can I go with you? I also want to meet Stussy," Gion asked softly.
Mihawk nodded in agreement, "Okay."
"Excuse me, who is Lord Im?" Qin Su, who was beside Shanks, asked curiously.
Mihawk and Shanks looked at each other, and finally the former shook his head and said, "You are not suitable to know now."
After hearing this, Qin Su behaved very well and politely and did not continue to ask the reason.
The next day, in the morning.
There are five people: Mihawk, Shanks, Gion, Qinsu, and Susanoo.
In front of the medium-sized star gate guarded by many ninjas, we saw the 'Eight-Tailed' Ushio who had returned in time.
"Hey, how are you? Are you happy to see an old friend?" Shanks greeted.
"It's okay, but he told me that he doesn't want to be a tailed beast anymore, he wants to be a human, and he wants to have a child with a white fox."
The 'eight-tailed' Ushio-ki, who had shrunk to three meters in size, spoke in a muffled voice with a strange look on his face.
"Uh" Shanks opened his mouth not knowing what to say.
"Has the Nine-Tails of the Ninja World decided to eat the Human-Human Fruit?" Mihawk said.
"You knew about this?" Shanks turned his head and saw Mihawk nodded: "Mr. Shenhe occasionally asks me to have tea, and he mentioned the matter of Guren and Kurama during the tea."
"Okay." Shanks didn't know Kamikaze, Guren, or Kyuubi, so he just looked at Ushiki again: "What about you, do you want to be a human too?"
Niu Gui shook his head repeatedly: "No, it's fine now, and I like swimming in the sea."
Since he said so, Shanks naturally had no objection.
Then the five people and one beast walked into the star gate under the watchful eyes of the ninjas.
With Mihawk's status, he should have been followed by a large number of Holy Land garrisons, CIPHER POL, and even Mitosai's swordsmen.
But he didn't like such a fuss and simply refused all these ceremonies.
Everyone passed through the star gate and instantly arrived at Loulan in the Ninja World.
Soon, a large number of knights from the Holy Land garrison wearing armor and holding spears were seen at the exit.
Not far away, you can see a white spaceship floating in the air with a golden Sky Dragon Hoof printed on its side, indicating that it is dedicated to serving the Sky Dragons.
"Welcome the honorable Saint Mihawk and Saint Shanks to the Ninja World!"
Stussy walked forward with a smile on her face in her high heels, and then looked at Gion: "Long time no see. To be honest, I never thought you would marry Mihawk-sama. You are so lucky!"
Although Gion's cheeks flushed, she still faced Stussy's admiration with confidence.
"Your Highness Qin Su, Lord Yimu has had the 'Supreme Imperial Device' placed in the Land of Ghosts. All you need to do next is follow them to the destination, and then you can try to control the 'Supreme Imperial Device' and test its power to your heart's content."
Stussy finally looked at Qin Su and Susanoo and smiled.
At the same time, a man in a black suit and tie came up from behind her.
"Please follow me." After saying this, the man didn't care whether they agreed or not.
He turned and walked towards another spaceship which was much smaller and not as ornately decorated.
Qin Su didn't mind. After saying hello to Mihawk, Shanks and the others, he quickly followed with Susanoo.
The only thing on his mind now is the 'Supreme Emperor'.
A moment later, Mihawk and the others followed Stussy onto the 'Tianlong Spaceship' and flew quickly towards the airspace where Noah's Ark was located.
"Hey, are we leaving the mainland?"
Gion was a little surprised to notice the sea gradually appearing below the spaceship.
Stussy smiled and said, "Yes, there is another continent in this ninja world, named Regel Continent. Now Loulan and the Ninja Sect are developing it."
"I see." Gion nodded and changed the subject: "Tell me how you've been doing on Noah's Ark these past few years?"
Time passed by like sand slipping through fingers in the wind, as the two women chatted and Shanks felt uneasy.
Several hours later, the spaceship that had entered the Regel continent finally arrived at a high altitude.
Mihawk, Shanks and Gion came to the deck again and found that a huge invisible door had appeared out of nowhere not far away, revealing a different green dimension inside.
When the white spacecraft passed smoothly, the air door closed quickly, and the sky returned to its original blue sky and white clouds.
"This is this"
Shanks arrived at the front deck of Noah's Ark and was stunned by the extremely magnificent and unbelievable huge ship and buildings in front of him.
Especially the huge golden bell tower, which looked extremely familiar to him.
Isn't that what we saw on Sky Island when we were in Roger's Pirates?
At this time, a man about three meters tall, with a strong physique, green facial skin, white hair with dark blue horizontal stripes, exuding an amazing aura, strode in front of everyone and stared straight at Shanks.
"Kukulkan, what's the matter?" Stussy asked in surprise.
"Lord Im orders that Saint Mihawk and Lady Gion may proceed directly to the fifth floor, but Saint Shanks will need to hold out for a day under my attacks."
Kukulkan said in a deep voice: "If he can't do it, send him back to Marijoa and never let him step out of the Land of the Gods for the rest of his life, otherwise all members of the Knights of God will be executed!"
Mihawk and Shanks' hearts sank, they had not expected to face this kind of test.
At the same time, he began to look at Kukulkan carefully. Judging from his aura alone, he definitely had the combat strength of a lieutenant general.
But now Shanks' strength has stagnated for a long time because he wasted many years and has not experienced any fierce battles.
He can barely beat the 'Eight-Tailed' Ushio-ki now, and is far behind Mihawk.
And Stussy knew Kukulkan well.
This is a giant python known as the 'Lord of the Sky', with a body several kilometers long.
Such a huge size has been shrunk to the size in front of us under the effect of the Human-Human Fruit. You can imagine how terrifying its physical strength is!
In addition, because he has a human form, he can cultivate domineering power.
Through countless sparring sessions with the Giant God Soldiers over the past few years, his domineering aura has already been honed to an extremely high level.
And in terms of physical skills.
Although Kukulkan could not go to the Star Pressure Palace, Im still had someone set up a small gravity training room in the golden bell tower.
A CP0 master was also assigned to teach him life restoration and the six secrets.
All in all, he is Im's "pet", or the "guardian beast" of Noah's Ark.
But the strength is really very strong, definitely reaching the level of the Giant God Soldier!
"Shanks, I'll help you!" the 'Eight-Tailed' Ushio said immediately.
"This" Shanks hesitated.
"Yes, as long as you admit that you are Shanks Saint's familiar."
The word "familiar" has a wider coverage.
Therefore, the World Government officially refers to summoned beasts, summoned beasts, and even humanoid imperial artifacts such as Susanoo as "familiars."
Of course, individuals can also address others according to their own habits in private.
"No, Niu Gui is my partner, I can do it myself" Shanks immediately shook his head.
But the next second, I heard Niu Gui say in a deep voice: "Yes, I am his spirit beast, or I can be his familiar!"
It doesn't matter what you call him, you can even say he is not a human being.
He only knew that Shanks was the friend who took him on a tour around the starfish.
Now all he had to do was seal the Ushi-ki into Shanks' body, and he would probably only consider it for a moment.
"In that case, you should stay too." Kukulkan raised the corner of his mouth.
"Ushi-oni." Shanks was deeply moved.
"Needless to say, I am now worried that the ensuing battle will cause damage to this place."
Niu Gui shook his head, signaling him not to be so pretentious, and at the same time glanced around, looking at the extremely wide bow deck.
However, no matter how wide it was, it was still a wooden boat, and he didn't think it could withstand his own strength and the Tailed Beast Ball that he might have to use.
"Don't worry, this Noah's Ark is blessed with the power of Lord Im, you just need to fight with all your strength." Kukulkan said indifferently.
He and the 'Thunder Giant' Donli fought for a long time but couldn't cause any damage at all, so how could Shanks and Ushio do the same?
"Good luck."
At this point, Mihawk could only give Shanks his blessing.
Then, he and Gion followed Stussy to the ship's gate in the distance.
He believed that Shanks would pass the test and become a man who would stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
"Are you ready?"
Kukulkan waited until they were far away, and then asked Shanks, who had already drawn his 'Griffin', and the 'Eight-Tailed' Gyu-ki, who had restored his body to its original size and was squatting behind the former.
"bring it on!"
Shanks shouted to cheer himself and the Ushiki up.
【boom------】
The next second, a wave of air exploded, and Kukulkan instantly appeared in front of the two.
Before Shanks could react.
The Bull Ghost, which was fifty or sixty meters tall and could be called a giant, was kicked away by a supersonic whip kick.
【Whoosh! 】
Shanks subconsciously swung his sword, but only hit a shadow that disappeared in the wind.
Kukulkan appeared behind him, which made Shanks' expression freeze.
"It looks like the next day will be a long one for you, Saint Shanks."
【boom! ! 】
In an instant, the shadows of legs reappeared and the evil waves cleared.
Surrounded by sonic boom mist, Shanks flew backwards like a cannonball until he crashed heavily into the wall of the Golden Bell Tower.
"."
Such a huge commotion made Mihawk and Gion, who had already walked to the door of the ship, subconsciously look back.
"Are they really okay?" Gion asked worriedly.
"Now we can only trust him."
Mihawk looked at Shanks who was helping Jin Bi to stand up, then immediately rushed towards Kukulkan, but in the next moment he was knocked away again, so he immediately turned around and stepped into the door.
I think, after all, I can't die.
About half an hour later.
Under the watchful eyes of the Giant God Soldiers, they finally reached the top floor.
But then he saw a red-haired young man standing in front of him, looking directly at Mihawk with eyes filled with joy and expectation.
"You are finally here, Jurakol Mihawk. I am Cassius Longinus. I hope to have a sparring match with you!"
Longinus drew the Seven-Star Sword from his back.
When the sword pointed at Mihawk, it suddenly emitted a dark green light.
Because the Seven Star Sword also sensed the presence of Black Blade Night.
One is a bloodthirsty demon sword that will bring killing and destruction, and the other is the most powerful supreme sword of Starfish.
"I'm here to see Master Im." Mihawk said expressionlessly.
Longinus said in a deep voice: "This battle has been approved by Lord Yim, and he also asked me to tell you that he will make his own decision on the matter of Figaland Shanks, and you don't need to continue to participate!"
Mihawk was silent for a few seconds, then grasped the hilt of the knife behind his back with his right hand.
His action made Longinus' eyes light up.
Because he could sense the fighting spirit beginning to emanate from Mihawk.
Great, he had long wanted to meet this person, whom Lord Im had described as the strongest celestial dragon of the younger generation!
"Gion, you go with Stussy first." Mihawk whispered.
"it is good!"
Zhiyuan nodded, she believed that Mihawk would not lose.
soon.
Only Mihawk and Longinus were left on the field, facing each other with knives, and the atmosphere around them became extremely solemn.
The former is twenty-five years old this year, and the latter is twenty-one years old this year.
Both of them can be said to be the best among the young Celestial Dragons.
Including Doflamingo, who is 23 years old this year, the three can be called the "Three Heroes of the Celestial Dragon".
Im wanted to see how far Longinus and Mihawk could fight.
next moment.
Longinus took the lead.
The Seven Star Sword in his hand turned into a green light that covered the sky and swept towards Mihawk.
For this first attack, he did not use his Haki or his Devil Fruit ability, it was just pure swordsmanship.
Mihawk immediately understood what Longinus meant.
The blade of the Black Knife Night was like fallen leaves spinning, forming a green whirlwind full of murderous intent, sweeping across the countless green rays of light that were attacking from the front.
Although both sides are green, Mihawk's sword light is brighter and sharper, while Longinus's sword light is slightly dim, like a ghostly will-o'-the-wisp.
But the sword lights on both sides entangled in the air, and at the moment of collision, the sound of clanging was heard.
This proves that they were indeed competing with each other in swordsmanship!
The sword energy soaring into the sky and the dazzling knife light constantly crisscrossed and collided and shattered.
It didn't take long.
Longinus and Mihawk were fighting each other at high speed on the fifth floor of Noah's Ark, and wherever they went, there was a fierce sonic boom.
Gradually, the competition between the two was no longer limited to swordplay.
