One Piece: Rise of an Empire

Des and Ariel rested at the old lady's place for another day, and then said goodbye to the old lady.

Des and Ariel planned to take a good look at this country, so their first stop was the nearest city, Tianjian City.

After fighting against the Warring States Period, Des felt that his fighting power was still not enough.

He also wanted to turn himself into a One-Punch Man, who could be dealt with with a single punch, but he didn't hang up.

At this time, Des suddenly thought of Linlin, this guy was linked, but he was banned.

This comforted Des somewhat.

If Tianjian City had to walk, it would take about half a day.

Des and Ariel looked at the scenery here while walking, so they walked for a whole day.

Des found that this country is relatively comfortable. Think about it, too. An island is only the size of a country, and it is closed to the outside world. There is no war, and the life of the civilians is naturally very good.

As the sky slowly darkened, Des and Ariel finally arrived at the gate of Tianjian City.

It is surrounded by city walls, and there are guards at the gate. The three big characters of Tianjian City stand above the gate.

Although it was already evening, there were not many pedestrians entering and leaving the door.

Des's figure appears unusually tall here.

Des estimates that the average height of men here is only about 1.7 meters, and that of women is less than 1.6 meters.

Therefore, Des and Ariel's figures have a very high rate of turning heads along the way.

When Des and Ariel entered the city gate, the guards at the city gate did not stop them, because they only saw that there were no troublemakers here, and they were not in charge of entering and exiting the city gate.

Of course, the wanted criminals were posted on the door. Obviously, if Des and Ariel were wanted criminals, it would be easy to recognize them.

After entering the city, Des felt the atmosphere of ancient China. Although it was already night, the atmosphere here was very active.

There are peddlers yelling everywhere.

Des looked around, he had never seen a lot of food in the outside world, but he didn't seem to have any money.

The currency here is gold, silver and copper.

And Des doesn't even have Bailey on him now.

So Des could only look around.

Continuing to walk towards the interior of the town, Dess saw a group of people gathered in the middle of a high platform.

At this time, Des found someone and asked, "What's the situation here?"

The man was startled when he saw Des's figure, and then replied.

"Today is the day for the selection of the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and many of them brought their children to participate in the selection."

Selection of Heavenly Sword Sect disciples?

Okay, it's a little fantasy.

"Then what are the selection criteria?" Des asked.

"Young people under the age of 12 can directly join the Heavenly Sword Sect, while those between the age of 12 and above need to pass the test. Look over there, the test is to use the sword of the Heavenly Sword Sect to leave marks on that iron pillar. Many people are testing."

Des suddenly thought that he and Ariel seemed to be almost eighteen years old, and it seemed that they hadn't arrived yet, so they could also go for a test.

"Ariel, let's take the test too, we are still at the age of testing," Des said.

Ariel nodded.

Des pulled Ariel and forcibly pushed away the surrounding crowd.

Many people feel angry when someone pushes him, but they really can't get angry when they see the tall Des.

They fear Des hit them with fists as big as their heads.

"Well, can I test it?"

Des finally reached the side of the tester and asked the tester.

"Well, are you sure about the following?"

The tester looked at Des. Des's face was not very fierce, but his figure made people have to be careful when speaking.

"My wife and I are both [-] years old," Des said.

The tester looked at Ariel again, thinking that these two people are really seventeen?Although Ariel is very beautiful, Ariel is a head taller than him.

The tester wanted to refuse, but seeing Des's [friendly] expression, he nodded.

"Take the sword over there, as long as you leave marks on the iron pillar, you will pass the test"

At this time, Des walked to the side of the iron pillar and picked up the sword beside him.

To the people of Tianyuan Kingdom, this iron pillar is very tall, but it looks very small in front of Des.

Des has reached [-] meters in height, and has well-developed muscles on his body. The two-meter iron pillar is a bit small no matter how you look at it.

Des picked up the sword and slashed at the iron pillar. Although the tester knew that the sword could not cut off the iron pillar, he always had the illusion that it could be easily broken as long as Des exerted force.

Sure enough, his delusion was right.

Dess habitually put domineering on the sword.

"bump!"

The solid pillar was directly cut in half by Des.

"!!!!!!!!!"

The onlookers and the testers were dumbfounded. It was not the first time for the testers to do the test. It was not easy for the previous people to leave traces. This guy actually cut it off?Those who can do this in Tianjianzong must be people above the elders.

Des scratched his head in embarrassment.

"That, sorry, it was damaged for you, did I pass the test?"

"Passed passed"

"By the way, my wife can do it too, why don't you give her a test too"

"No, you both passed"

The tester was a little excited, this time he picked up a treasure.

"Ahem, today's test is over, go back, strong man, you and your wife come with me."

Everyone left under the tester's announcement.

Des and Ariel also followed the testers into the center of Tianjian City.

Hanging on the door is the "Sky Sword Sect"

[How could it be in the city, shouldn't it be on the mountain? 】

"My name is Zhang Zhengqian, I am older than you, you can call me Brother Zhengqian, what do you call me?"

Des can feel that the name here seems to be the name of the East.

At this time, Des had already thought of names for him and Ariel.

"My surname is Shi Minghao, Brother Zheng Qian can call me Shi Hao, and my wife is Ye Lin"

"Then I'll call you Brother Shi"

How does it feel weird.

"Okay, Brother Zhengqian"

Zhang Zhengqian took Desi into the Tianjianzong, and Desi saw everyone practicing swords.

"Is this our Heavenly Sword Sect?"

"Yes, I will take you to get the disciple badge, and then arrange accommodation for you. You will be a member of the Heavenly Sword Sect in the future."

Then Zhang Zhengqian looked at Ariel, then at Des.

"I'll arrange a single room for the two of you."

"That troubles you, Brother Zhang"

All the disciples saw that Zhang Zhengqian brought two people over. If they didn't know the leader, they all felt that someone had come to kick the hall.

Even the elder who was in charge of arranging the tokens for the disciples had to ask Zhang Zhengqian several times before confirming that the two were disciples.

"We have a cafeteria here, you can go to eat, and you can rest here at night, and I will take you to meet our head tomorrow."

"Okay, sorry to trouble you, by the way, does the cafeteria ask for money?"

"It's all free."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Zhengqian left, and Des and Ariel also walked towards the cafeteria.

Des was not polite when he saw that so many dishes were free. Under the eyes of everyone, Des ate the food that dozens of people ate.
