Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 1001 Everything is over, make an appointment with Hawkeye

There were no long speeches, no impassioned speeches, no swearing at Fang Qiu, no one expected that the bloodthirsty swordsman would only use one sentence throughout the whole process.

Everyone looked at each other with different expressions, but no one spoke.

In the silence, the fifth emperor of the sea was born.

"I think……"

In the front row, a middle-aged reporter with yellow hair had just uttered a word when the light in the hall dimmed.

click~
On the stage, Shiryu of the Rain raised his thumb holding the knife, and the demon knife Thunderstorm at his waist was unsheathed in an instant. The scarlet light shone on the pale golden blade, and a strong and pungent bloody smell permeated the air!
At the same time, the strange black mist on his body vented out, continuously churning in the air, and quickly covered the ceiling.

The power of darkness, even though it was only a thin layer, made everyone present feel as if they were facing an abyss, feeling like they were about to be swallowed by the black hole vortex.

After two months of fighting, many pirates and criminals were slaughtered. Today's dark swordsman is extremely ferocious, and his killing intent is so strong that it can make all warriors terrified.

Among the crowd, Hua Jian's eyelids trembled. He was also a great swordsman, and he was a little startled by the aura of this dark great swordsman.

Shilieu of the Rain's eyes were dim, and he glanced at the middle-aged reporter who had just spoken.

"..."

The man felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his whole body felt cold, as if a devil had choked his throat, and swallowed all his words.

God, he was wronged. He just wanted to ask a question, and he didn't mean to object at all...

Not only that, but then he felt hot behind him, and the hall was illuminated by red flames.

In the rear, the crimson rolling dragon flames compressed rapidly, and quickly gathered in Nana's palm to form a small blood-colored sun full of infinite light and heat!

Nana: (●—●)
Shileu of the Rain: (●—●)
Reporter: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

The eyes of the two locked on the middle-aged reporter one after the other. The poor uncle almost peed in fright, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

Pfft!
His face was very pale, his breathing was stagnant, and in the next second, he felt his eyes suddenly spin, and his body fell forward and fell to the ground.

Everyone: "..."

Look, this guy was so frightened that he fainted.

Who dares to say something against such a scene?I'm afraid not even a whole body can be left behind...

"I agree! I agree with the sword hero Ren to become the five emperors, no, he can even become the king of the world! At least the king of the new world."

Without warning, Morgons raised his hands and shouted excitedly.

Judging by his appearance, he seemed to be happier than Ryan himself.

Everyone: (ー_ー)!!
Although you know that the newspaper will sell better tomorrow, you don't have to be so excited like you have epilepsy, right?

Ren raised his eyebrows, a little surprised that Birdman was the first to support him, but it seemed reasonable again.

This has nothing to do with Stucey's plan to cooperate with Birdman, the butt decides the head.

This guy Morgans is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and he can't wait for big news every day, which is the essence of the shock department of the headline party.

The Straw Hat Boy didn't even beat Bigmom, but when he escaped from Cake Island after a big fuss, he dared to play the fifth emperor.

Looking at the excited birdman, some people were surprised, but people like Charlotte Perospero, Ben Beckman, and Diamanti who knew the virtues of birdmen were not surprised.

Not necessarily to curry favor with the Demon King.

Even if Ren, the swordsman, said that he was still on the verge of success and that he would not be crowned emperor for the time being, with Morgonz's virtue, he would probably brag in the newspaper on his own initiative and forcefully push him up...

Nana glanced at Birdman with admiration, but she scolded:
"Return the king of the world? What nonsense are you talking about!"

How can this person brag about the boss?At present, it is only a mere five emperors...

Guests: "..."

🇧🇷
Please, Your Excellency Fire Dragon, your tail is almost up to the sky, do you want to be so exaggerated in acting?
Although Goth Lolita was reprimanding him, Morgans was not blind. With a smile in his eyes, he apologized with a sincere smile on his face:
"Aha, Your Excellency Huolong, it's my fault. I've always been quick to speak, and I accidentally told the truth."

"It's okay, I've always been magnanimous, so I'll forgive you this time." Nana said with a stern face.

Everyone: "..."

As if no one else was around, the show started openly...

But in any case, Birdman's statement (although many people suspected that he was invited by the lion group) was also a start for the guests present.

"I agree!" Diamanti was the second to speak out with a warm smile on his face.

His statement also made many people dumbfounded.

"He... isn't he from Tenyasha? Qi Wuhai congratulated the Four Emperors?"

Someone was dumbfounded.

If the Don Quixote family does this, where will the world government face it?You know, the Qiwuhai system was born to deal with the situation of the Four Emperors...

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just congratulating the Lionheart Pirates for dominating the sea." Diamanti added later.

Everyone: "..."

(), trying to cover up, not self-incriminating, God's personal name, who will believe it?
"Did Tian Yasha collude with the bloodthirsty swordsman?"

"Nonsense, isn't that obvious?"

"..."

Facing everyone's puzzled and astonished gazes, Diamanti took his time and did not explain too much. After expressing his position, he quietly stood aside.

It has nothing to do with Dover, he personally worships the swordsman Ren, can't he?
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, anyway, if he believed it, even if the Navy came to question him, it would be the same answer...

"I agree."

"That must be agreed. Besides Mr. Ren, who else is qualified to be the fifth emperor?"

"congratulations."

……

In the hall, the guests expressed their agreement one by one, no matter whether it was genuine agreement or because of the desire to survive, at least no one dared to object.

Seeing this scene, Wenxi, Kaku, Mr. 3 and others all smiled.

After a circle, everyone soon expressed their opinions, and only the red-haired pirates remained.

Most of the eyes of the crowd focused on the silent Shanks.

Another sea emperor was present, and his attitude was obviously more important than anyone else.

Before keeping everyone waiting for long, the red-haired man raised his head slightly with a serious face, his eyes became a little sharper, and he met the eyes of Ren Gujing on the stage.

After a while, he nodded and sighed:
"This day has come a bit fast, I believe everyone thinks this way, from debut to dominating the new world in less than three months, such an unheard of situation makes people feel unbelievable.

Up to now, there is actually nothing to say, whether it is an individual or a force, he is a well-deserved emperor, Ren, congratulations. "

The steady and powerful voice spread throughout the hall, and everyone was shocked.

It was already 07:30 in the evening, and through the skylight, we could see that a huge moon had risen, embellishing the night, releasing bright light, as if celebrating this moment.

"Thank you." On the stage, Ren nodded to the red hair and smiled lightly.

At the same time, a reminder sounded in his mind.

[Sub-quest 2, dominate the sea.completed. ]
The brief reminder also indicated that he had completed three of the four missions issued by the system, leaving only side mission 1——The Strongest Sword.

That is to say, he became recognized as the world's number one swordsman.

Of course, the task of "invincible" can continue to be swiped up.

(Main task 2, Invincible: Defeat any pirate, the stronger the defeated pirate, the greater the fame and influence, the higher the task completion)
Ren has already completed the main mission 1 "Proof of the King" by defeating the general "Red Dog", but he has not defeated any of the Four Emperors, and it is not enough to kill the half-finished Blackbeard.

But there is no need to rush this task. It has only been three months since I came to the OP world, so there is plenty of time. The most important thing right now is to break through the double fifth order.

Since then, the crowning ceremony has ended.

After the task was completed, Renn also showed a smile on his face, and said to the reporters:
"You have half an hour to ask me questions, and I will answer as appropriate."

More than 200 reporters from major newspapers came here not only to witness history, but also to interview him and dig out news.

He's in a good mood now, so he won't let them go in vain.

Moreover, he also has something to announce later, and the reporters need to publicize it.

At this time, the birdman Morgans was the first to stand up and said:
"Your governance ability has surprised the outside world. Everything in the territory is handled in an orderly manner, and you have even won the reputation of a virtuous king among the people. What do you think of this?"

This question is actually asked by many people.

I have to say that although Birdman is exaggerated, he still has the basic qualities of a journalist. Redhead, Bista and Diamanti are all curious about this.

Although you can find some management talents to assist you, if you can do such a good job with ease, you must have a certain level.

But in Ren's resume, there is no such experience.

"King Xian?"

The corner of Ren's mouth twitched. Although he knew that many people in the crowd commented on him like this, he still felt a little ridiculous.

He can even be called a virtuous king, all he can say is—sister yyds!

If you don’t understand, just use the contact platform to ask, and you can even upload materials and cases for her to analyze. Even if your sister is busy with military affairs and has no time, the goddess Rungomigniad, who is also King Arthur’s IF, can also tutor him online.

Then refer to the experience of the Pirate Empress in governing the country, it will not be bad at all.

But this is not his ability, he coughed lightly, smiled lightly at the crowd and said:
"I don't dare to be a virtuous king. It's not because I'm good at what I do. The main reason is that other people are mediocre. In a word - being able to be called a virtuous king depends entirely on the background of my peers."

This answer is a bit convoluted, and it doesn't answer the question, some people didn't respond.

But Morgans was not among them, he was so excited that his body trembled, and he said excitedly:

"You mean, Kaido, Big Mom, Hong... cough, poor governance?"

Red hair:"……"

"This is what you understand. I didn't say that. I didn't say that Kaido and Big Mom are trash tyrants." Ren shrugged, with a playful smile on his face.

Everyone: "..."

Good guy, as soon as he became the fifth emperor, he publicly mocked other emperors.

In fact, it's really not Ryan's eccentricity.

Bigmom, the Queen of Totland, Beast Kaido, and King Ming of the Kingdom of Wano, how do these two people manage the country, and at what level, do you still not know?
Even if Ren can hold his sister's thigh, he is a novice, and his reputation is stable and stable, is it true that he is of a high level?
No.

To put it bluntly, this is a worse world.

The world government with hundreds of affiliated countries is corrupt internally. In the OP world, it can be said that tyrants and incompetent kings are in power. Kings who can treat the people better are endangered species.

Even if there were, these wise kings were often not very good at force, and they couldn't protect their own people in this chaotic "age of great pirates".

In such a big environment, relying on his peers to set off, a novice emperor like Ren can be called a virtuous king...

It can only be said that the people of this world are too pitiful.

"Shocked, the Five Emperors Ren publicly mocked Kaido and Big Mom as a tyrant! "

Morgons scribbled the title, then stepped aside contentedly.

Reporter A stepped forward: "Mr. Wren, may I ask, how do you plan to deal with possible retaliation from the navy?"

"I have nothing to say about the navy, just let it go."

"Then for that noisy world conscription plan..."

"Conscription in the world? Hehe, whatever he wants to conscript, that is, the navy will not let me participate in the selection, otherwise I don't mind serving as admiral of the navy."

Everyone: "..."

(￣△￣;), this is thanks to you.

Reporter B: "You have become the fifth emperor of the sea, next, will you try to seize the position of One Piece?"

As soon as this question came out, everyone pricked up their ears, obviously very concerned.

Ren spread his hands: "Not interested."

Reporter B looked surprised: "The throne of One Piece is the target of all big pirates..."

Ren: "At least it's not my goal. I'm not interested in the rest of Roger's game. Being a pirate is just boring."

Reporter B: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Is it okay to be bored?
Ren also added: "Actually, I regret it now. If I had known that being the Five Emperors would be so boring, I would have joined the army. The position of admiral must be mine."

Everyone: "..."

(_), ah bah, Marin Fando is sinking, you tell us this?
Although it was true, no one believed it at all. Even Redhead and Ben Beckman thought it was a sly mocking of the Navy.

In fact, if it weren't for the faction mission, someone Lei would really run to become a navy.

When he becomes the marshal, he will subtly rule Taotu, beat the table and anger the five old stars, or take the lead in rebellion... Isn't this more interesting than being a pirate?
It's a pity that he can't play these showy operations now, and the regret in it is not enough for outsiders to understand.

Reporter C: "You are already the Five Emperors, and you may not be interested in the great secret treasure left by Roger, but will you try to unify the new world? Or even challenge the world government?"

This is another sharp question.

The audience paid close attention. No one believed that Renn's going to sea to be a pirate was just a Versailles talk for fun. Even the redhead had a serious face. He also wanted to know how far the bloodthirsty great swordsman's ambition had come, and whether he was on the right track. Fly makes an impact...

"I have no interest in unifying the new world. As for whether I will challenge the world government—"

Ryan paused, and after whetting everyone's appetite, he grinned, "I'm not sure, maybe someday I'll go sightseeing in Marie Gioia... If someone chases me and hits me, I have to fight back. Bar?"

Everyone: "..."

The king of demons descended on the Holy Land Marie Gioia... This scene is too terrifying to imagine.

Perhaps after this interview is reported tomorrow, the Navy and even the Five Old Stars will have trouble sleeping and eating again.

Reporter D: "Akainu has woken up, what do you think?"

Ren: "Congratulations, it's too far away, otherwise I will definitely send a carnation there."

Everyone: "..."

Are you sure it's not a bell?

During the half-hour interview, Rennes answered many sharp questions from the reporters.

Moreover, his answers are basically all the truth, but whether people believe it or not is another matter.

"Okay, the interview time is over, next, I want to announce a few things."

When Ryan announced the end of the interview time, many reporters who did not have the turn to ask questions stamped their feet and beat their chests, but when he said that he would announce a few things, everyone became excited again.

It is by no means a trivial matter for the Five Emperors to specifically mention it. Although there are enough hot topics today, no reporter would think it would be more sensational.

"First of all, the territory under my command is called the Lionheart United Kingdom, or the Lionheart Kingdom for short, just like Bigmom's Totland Kingdom."

"Second, the Lionheart Kingdom and the North Sea Germa Kingdom will form an alliance."

"Third, here, challenge the world's number one swordsman - "Hawkeye" Joracle Mihawk to decide who belongs to the strongest swordsman. Answer me internally and externally."

Ren announced three big news in public, and then left without giving anyone time to ask questions.

"Wait, Mr. Wren, please wait..."

"Get out of the way, bastard, let me go!"

"Excuse me... ah! Don't step on me, don't crowd me!"

The city hall was crowded and chaotic. Wen Xi and X. Drake from the Propaganda Organization Department tried their best to maintain order, but they still couldn't stop the journalists who had beaten their blood.

There is no doubt that this is a storm of public opinion, no less than the storm of Nine Snakes VS Hundred Beasts.

"The Kingdom of Germa?"

Charlotte Perospero stood in the corner with a clouded face.

About four months ago, before the Dingshang War started, Germa 66 and the Bigmom Pirates had some preliminary contacts.

At that time, my mother also expressed interest in this country with strong military strength and great ambitions.

It's just that Perospero never expected that the other party said that they should carefully consider the matter of cooperation. As a result, they turned around and fell into the arms of the Lionheart Pirates...

This made him quite annoyed and depressed that he was abandoned, and the duck that was about to be cooked suddenly flew away.

Needless to say, Mom will not be happy.

Although the marriage between the Bigmom Pirates and the Devil King failed, and the plan against the Nine Snake Pirates was also aborted because the Empress did not intend to compete with the Lions, but wanted to smash the Beast Kaido, but the two sides actually have some cooperate.

For example, the Lionheart Pirates once bought desserts from them as food supplies, so as to survive the small-scale famine caused by the chaos in the white group's territory and the destruction of crops in the early days.

However, regarding the matter of the Germa Kingdom, the lion group undoubtedly took the prey, at least the mother would think it was the prey.

This time, the honeymoon period between the Lionheart Pirates and the Bigmom Pirates may be coming to an end, the future will be clouded, and conflicts may break out... Perospero thought a little worriedly.

The new world is messy enough.

If the Bigmom Pirates VS Lionheart Pirates happened again, the consequences would be disastrous.

Some people are sad and some are happy.

Wearing a gray cloak, Vinsmoke Gage squeezed through the noisy crowd to the outside of the hall, his face hard to hide his joy.

It worked!
The Kingdom of Germa has been successfully tied to the devil king's chariot. It is worthwhile for him to give away his daughter and provide free information on devil fruit and blood factor technology.

Compared with the 66-year-old aunt who is dying, Jianhao Ren is undoubtedly more worthy of investment. He is only 25 years old and has unlimited potential and future.

If there is anyone who can withstand the pressure of the navy and the government and help the Kingdom of Germa occupy the North Sea, it is him.

Moreover, compared to the aunt with ugly food and worrisome character, Ren's reputation is better.

'The Kingdom of Germa will surely dominate the North Sea again! '

Gaji clenched his fists, and for the first time, he saw a chance to realize his ambition and ambition.

Hongye Island, the western suburbs, the moonlight shines, and the shadows of the trees on the grass by the forest are mottled.

It was rare for the redhead not to drink and have fun with the crew and mingle with each other.

He was alone on the high slope, looking up at the sky full of stars, with a little haze between his brows, as if something was bothering him and making him hesitate.

"Worried about Mihawk?"

Ben Beckman asked with a cigarette between his fingers.

"This battle is indeed a bit dangerous for him."

The red-haired sighed, "This day is a matter of time, even if Rennes doesn't invite the fight, Mihawk can endure it for a year at most."

The appearance of the bloodthirsty great swordsman has undoubtedly shaken Hawkeye's status as the strongest swordsman.

Even if Ren is a capable person, everyone in the world knows how powerful and terrifying the swordsmanship he displayed in the top battle is.

Ben Beckman was silent for a while.

In all fairness, he was not too optimistic about Hawkeye this time either.

In the past years, Hawkeye has competed with Shanks many times. Usually, Hawkeye's swordsmanship is superior, while Shanks' domineering is even better. Therefore, they are indistinguishable from each other.

But Ren, whose strength is still higher than that of Roger and Whitebeard in their peak period, although not a level higher than the top powerhouse, is still half a head higher.

"What time is it?" Ben Beckman asked directly without any comfort.

The redhead hesitated for a moment, and said:
"If it's just a fight, Mihawk's winning rate is less than [-]%. If it's a swordsman duel, there should be about [-]% chance of winning."

Yes, it depends on how to fight, because Ren is not a pure swordsman.

"Since it is a competition for the throne of the strongest swordsman, it must be a battle of swordsmen. What are you worried about?" Ben Beckman was a little puzzled.

With Shanks' temper, he wouldn't be so sentimental.

It's just a duel, which strong man in the sea has not experienced a fierce battle in his life?

The red-haired stared at the night in a daze, and said: "You don't understand him, he may end up betting his life on the strongest sword, this is how that man exists."

With what he knows about him.

This time, losing would probably mean death.

…………

On the other side, at the corner of the street.

Barrett folded his arms and leaned against an old wall, watching the captain enter his villa. He withdrew his gaze, with an excited smile on the corner of his mouth, and said:

"It's been a long time. I haven't been so excited. I've been looking forward to something so exciting. Witnessing the change of the strongest sword in the world... It's a pity that it's not me."

There are many things tonight, but for him, the most worthy of attention is always fighting, surpassing, and becoming stronger.

"Hmph, if you play, your head may fall to the ground." Shiliu of the Rain sneered.

"Want to fight? You are a second-rate swordsman." Barrett raised his eyebrows and smiled, revealing his white teeth.

"I'm happy to accompany you and make you, the heir of the devil, a real dead ghost."

Shiryu of the Rain took out a cigarette and lit it with a lighter, "But today is not suitable, and it can't be this island, if you don't want to be thrown into the sea by the captain to feed the fish."

"..."

One sentence extinguished Barrett's urge to stab his brother, he shook his head, and said, "Although I really want to fight the captain again, I haven't mastered the 'Overlord's Entangling' technique he taught me. , don’t take it upon yourself.”

Barrett's domineering look is very domineering.

But he quit the Roger Pirates a little early, when he was very young, and then he went to jail, and he couldn't learn to be tyrannical in the city prison.

After the actual contact, Ren felt that Barrett's strength was a bit exaggerated.

A little dependent on the boat, not entangled with the overlord... In fact, there is still a certain gap between this and the peak Roger and Whitebeard.

However, he has been learning the overlord color winding recently, and he will master it in a short time, and that will be infinitely close to One Piece.

"Shiliu, how is your practice? Are you lazy?"

"The dark fruit has not yet been developed to the point of perfection, and the captain taught me the magic evasion, and some sword master inheritances have not been fully understood." Shiliu of the Rain said lightly.

In fact, among the three top cadres of the lion group, Shilieu of the Rain, who is also a great swordsman, can undoubtedly learn more from Ren.

At this time, the Dark Swordsman was already quite terrifying.

During this period of battle, in order to practice the sword and develop the dark fruit, he slaughtered many enemies and dozens of fruit-capable users, much more ruthless than Barrett and Nana.

When he fully digests what he has gained, he will be a real top-notch powerhouse, and a very difficult one.

For Xiliu's growth template, you can refer to the yellow ape.

Darkly against the flash.

Demon Sword Thunderstorm VS Amazono Cloud Sword.

Two-color domineering versus two-color domineering.

……

With the characteristics of nature-type dark fruit, it can also restrain other devil fruits, especially other nature-type fruits.

The seal of the power of darkness allows Shiryu of the Rain to directly attack the body of a natural ability user, just like Tiki's fire fist.

The complete dark swordsman cultivated by Renn should be stronger than the yellow ape.

He attaches great importance to Shiliu, and his growth limit may be higher than that of Barrett.

After Barrett has mastered the overlord color entanglement, it is difficult to improve his strength. However, Shileu of the Rain inherits the mantle of Ren, but it is possible to reach the height of Gol D. Roger, and it is especially aimed at the fruit ability By.

Akainu may not be able to eat and walk around against the final version of the dark swordsman.

Red dog: Dark dog!
Shileu: Dark water.

The dark fruit absorbs the magma, seals away the elementalization, and then connects with the magic evasion, you can think about that kind of scene.

"Shiliu, you are a great swordsman, tell me, how often does the captain open Hawkeye?" Barrett asked curiously.

"The captain has a good chance of winning, but don't underestimate Hawkeye."

Shilieu of the Rain held a cigarette in his mouth, blew clouds and mist, seemed to be thinking about something, and said solemnly after a while, "Now I am sure to defeat Foil Vesta, and even Peach Rabbit. Eyes, it's not enough."

It's not that Hawkeye is much stronger than Yellow Ape, who said that Dark Water can absorb the Amazono Cloud Sword manifested by the ability to seal off the fruit.

But the dark water can't invalidate the black knife-Ye.

"You seem to admire the world's number one swordsman." Barrett rubbed his chin and smiled.

His active time was basically staggered from that of Hawkeye. On top of that, the opponent was also paddling in the battle. He didn't know the level of the strongest swordsman of the era.

"After all, he is the strongest swordsman."

Shiryu of the Rain also laughed, "I used to think that Hawkeye was the strongest man in the sea, stronger than the red dog yellow monkey, stronger than Big Mom Kaido... This is the romance of a swordsman, you may not understand it. "

Hua Jian actually has similar thoughts, and he also thinks that Hawkeye is the strongest.

No reason, the pride and romance of the swordsman.

"I don't understand."

Barrett shrugged his shoulders, disapprovingly, "But Hawkeye doesn't seem to show much. I only heard him duel with red hair, and it was many years ago."

"It's normal for you to think so."

Shiliu of the Rain did not deny that Mihawk hadn't shown much in these years. He stroked the demon sword Thunderstorm, and said indifferently, "Ten years of forging a sword, but there is no edge. Perhaps the world has underestimated him."

Among the top powerhouses in this world, "Hawkeye" Mihawk is probably the purest one.So pure that almost only swords are in his life.

He does not pursue the big secret treasure.

He did not form a pirate group, and he was king and hegemony.

He is alone and has no partner.

He became Qiwuhai not because he had any ambitions, but just to roam around more conveniently.

A man who pursues the ultimate state of swordsmanship.

Such a person is actually more terrifying than the world thinks.

He must have been lonely for a long time too.

Shiliu of the Rain rubbed his fingers against the hilt of the saber, and said, "This time, let the captain weigh the strongest sword art profound meaning comprehended by this peerless great swordsman and lonely seeker.

If Hawkeye is alive, next time, it will be my turn. "
