Sword of the pirate king

"so big!"

Li An was amazed, looked around, and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

"The buildings here are old."

Noah paid more attention to some details, and saw some moss hanging on the mottled stone wall, and a clump of weeds growing stubbornly at the base of the wall.

In a huge venue like the Colosseum in ancient Rome, except for the central open space, a group of people sat sparsely on the surrounding audience stands.

"That is……"

Noah looked up and met the same eyes looking at him.

"Grandpa Garp!"

"What, what are you talking about?" Li An, who was looking around, didn't hear what Noah said just now, followed Noah's gaze, and let out a soft cry.

"It's actually a naval hero, Lieutenant General Garp!? Also, the man with the broken arm next to him is the former Admiral Zefa!"

"What should we do? Are we going to conduct the assessment under the watchful eyes of naval heroes and former generals? What if the performance is not good? Will it leave a bad impression? What if we lose strength halfway... ",

"It's over, they are looking at me, should I behave more naturally?"

Li Shishi shivered under the gaze of the boss, not at all.

"Oh, wait for me!"

Noah walked away speechlessly, looking for the entrance along the arrow signs on the ground.

"You have a solid foundation. If you don't fight, you should be able to last for three or four hours. Once you enter the period of strenuous exercise, if you can last for half an hour, you are considered to have strong physical strength.

"You come first in a while, I see that the people in the audience, except for the sailors, seem to be people who have already participated in the battle, so they shouldn't be queuing."

"We're going to break through."

After finding the sea soldier in charge of this level, Li An rushed forward and said.

"Well, let me take a look..." Hai Bing glanced at Li An's badge, rummaged through the thick stack of papers for a while, and handed it to Li An after correcting the information on it.

"No. 6-59-3, Li An, if you are sure to participate in the eighth level, please sign on the paper."

Li An took the paper, browsed through a few lines, and happily signed his name.

"What's written on it?"

Noah pestered Li An and asked.

No wonder Noah couldn't see the content on the paper, he was really too tall.

Ang Lee is three meters tall, while Noah is only 1.9 meters tall.Noah is not short for normal people, but this is not a normal pirate world, there are many people who are two or three meters tall.

The three admirals of the navy are all [-] meters tall.

Shichibukai Jinpei, Doflamingo, over three meters.

Edward Newgate is as high as 7.3 meters.

Not to mention the giant race...

But Noah's height is not shameful, it is completely above the horizontal line.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Brother Noah, I'm in a hurry, you can see for yourself!"

As soon as the words fell, Noah had an extra piece of paper with Ang Lee's signature in his hand, and he had already run into the end of the passage, when a thick iron gate rose slowly, blocking Noah's sight.

"This guy, really..."

Noah shook his head helplessly, and looked at the paper in his hand.

"Isn't this a casualty waiver? Voluntary challenge, injury or death will be compensated by the navy...but the navy is also kind and can give subsidies..."

"You can go to the upper floor to watch the battle first, and come down after his challenge is over."

After signing his own "Casualty Waiver", Hai Bing said to Noah.

"I'll take you up there."

"Thank you."

………………

"Li An, come on!"

Noah stood on the stands, cheering for Li Ang, who was alone and as small as an ant in the huge field.

The venue was too big, and the sound reached Li An's ears only as a faint murmur like a mosquito, but he still saw Noah's waving, and was very moved.

"coming……"

A sense of urgency swept over Li An's heart, not only because of the unknown challenge of the eighth level, but also because of the gaze of Lieutenant General Karp and Chief Instructor Zefa.

"Boom~~"

The gears meshed and rotated, driving a steel fence to rise. There was a heavy breathing sound from behind the fence. As the fence rose, the breathing gradually became rapid. The creatures inside were walking around restlessly, and the heavy objects dragged on the floor could be vaguely heard friction sound.

The sunlight peeled off the shadow cast by the creature walking out of the fence, revealing its true appearance.

"Thorn..."

Dull footsteps, accompanied by the friction sound of sharp knives dragging the ground.

"Roar!!!"

There was a sudden roar, and the several-meter-long giant blade reflected dazzling light and was firmly held by a furry claw.

"This is... a baboon!?"

Noah gasped in surprise, always feeling a little impressed, searching for memories in his mind.

"This is a "specialty" creature from Culegana Island on the Great Passage, and it was captured there especially for this naval recruitment."

The navy who was watching the excitement saw Noah surprised, and explained kindly.

"This baboon is not simple. Its strength and agility are secondary. Have you seen the knife in its hand? It can do swordsmanship!"

"Oh, did someone teach it swordplay?"

Noah, who recalled some of the plot, pretended not to know, and continued to talk.

"Do you know who the world's number one swordsman is?"

asked the navy.

"I know, one of the King's Seven Martial Arts, Hawkeye-Jorakor Mihawk, who holds the supreme sword of the twelve crafts, the black sword night, is known as the world's number one swordsman."

"Are these baboons related to him?"

"Uh, it has something to do with it... These baboons are human imitators, very smart. They will become docile when they grow up around docile people, and vice versa..."

"You mean these baboons were raised by Hawkeye?"

Noah was a little surprised, this did not match the information in his memory.

"No, no, how is it possible." The navy waved his hands again and again, explaining: "Four years ago, a war broke out in the Kingdom of Sikeal on Culegana Island. The entire kingdom was destroyed and corpses covered the ground. Born in the jungle These baboons grew up watching the ferocious battles of humans, and even learned to use weapons, because the island is full of abandoned weapons and armor, so these grown-up baboons imitated humans... "

"Just like the baboon in the field now, although there are few breastplates suitable for them, there are always suitable leggings, shoulder pads, etc., and a long knife, the fierce swordsmanship learned on the battlefield , It’s really not something that ordinary people can match.”

"However, I am still very optimistic about the young man below. He is not chaotic and can be regarded as a bit capable."

Haijun leaned on the fence, pointed at Li An who was in the confrontation and said.

"Hey, you haven't said that this has anything to do with Hawkeye."

Seeing that the navy deviated from the center while talking, Noah could only interrupt.

"Ah, this, of course, has something to do with Hawkeye. If you can defeat the five teamed baboons, you are qualified to know, haha..."

"Really, then I'm really looking forward to it..."

After all, Noah also leaned against the fence, quietly watching the upcoming battle.
