Illusionist in Pirates

Chapter 429 Shanks' Challenge
Facing Doflamingo, Kozuki Hiyori behaved very decently.

"Welcome Captain Doflamingo, and thank you for your help to Wano Country and Yamato."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kozuki Hiyori bowed to Doflamingo.

"Where, where. It's all trivial things, nothing to worry about." Doflamingo waved his hand. To be honest, it's the first time he's seen such a polite person after staying in this world for so long. .

With such a gentle personality and beauty, it’s no wonder that people in Wano Country are reluctant to let her go out to practice, let alone Wano Country has a blood feud with Kaido, even if Kozuki Hiyori has eight lives, other people are right. This is also very worrying.

"And Miss Xiaoren, the Red Sheath Nine Heroes will always remember your righteous deeds back then. I thank you on behalf of my father."

After hearing this, Shinobu immediately looked tearful. She didn't go to the execution ground with other people, but was driven out by Kozuki Oden because she didn't know this guy, although she knew it was Kozuki Oden She said it to save her, but this matter has always been a lump in her heart.

Now, after hearing Kozuki Hiyori's words, Shinobu finally felt relieved.

After a few chats, the red-haired Shanks looked at Doflamingo with something wrong, and finally said, "Captain Don Quixote, may I have a swordsmanship match with you?"

Doflamingo was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect that someone with a personality like red hair would open his mouth to challenge, but thinking about how red hair and Hawkeye could become friends, it is obvious that they still have a common language in swordsmanship.

"Competing in swordsmanship? Of course there is no problem."

Seeing this, Kozuki Hiyori politely pulled Shimotsuki Niomaru, who seemed a bit unwilling, and Shinobu also led Yamato, who couldn't see the atmosphere, to leave a few steps together.

As a strong swordsman, Shimotsuki Ushimaru actually wanted to challenge Doflamingo, but unfortunately he couldn't even beat Shanks, so naturally he couldn't speak.

As for Yamato, she has been beaten up enough by Doflamingo on weekdays, and of course she is not as excited as Shanks who has never fought against Doflamingo.

The rest, whether it is Shinobu or Kozuki Hiyori, although the cultivation is considered hard, they are definitely not the character of a battle madness, so they will pull the other two away.

However, they won't go too far. Although they don't want to fight directly, they still want to watch the battle-this is a very rare battle between the top powerhouses in the sea, especially one of them, which is recognized as the top power in the sea. The strongest - Doflamingo.

Feeling the fighting spirit of the red-haired Shanks, and looking at the entire Ghost Island, Doflamingo wondered if the two of them would sink the entire island if they went all out. .

Thinking of this, Doflamingo said to Shanks: "Let's change to another place. Although this place is remote, if there is a real fight, I am afraid that the entire Ghost Island will be destroyed."

Only then did Shanks realize that he seemed a little too excited.

In fact, although Shanks has never met Doflamingo, he has never known much about him.

On the one hand, the three brothers Luffy and the others, under the training of Doflamingo, their strength has improved a lot, naturally when they get along with Shanks.Doflamingo has been mentioned many times.

On the other hand, it is a good friend who often competes with Shanks in swordsmanship, Hawkeye Mihawk, and often fights with Doflamingo, and because of this, he knows more about Doflamingo's strength. unpredictable.

According to Hawkeye, purely in terms of swordsmanship, Doflamingo is not inferior to him at all, and even surpasses him in terms of domineering cultivation.Every time they played against each other, Hawkeye never took advantage.

Those who have read the original manga, because they have never seen Hawkeye make a move, feel that Hawkeye's arrogance may not be comparable to those of the top big pirates and admirals.

However, everyone has overlooked one point, Hawkeye in the original novel, but in the entire One Piece at that time, the only one who had trained a black knife!
In addition to the Frost Moon Ryoma who has long been dead, exclude those masters who do not use swordsmanship.Whether it's Kozuki Oden, Golden Lion, Whitebeard, or Red-haired Shanks, none of them have practiced a black sword at all!

The refining of the black knife may have a certain relationship with the realm of swordsmanship, but it must also be closely related to the strength of domineering - use domineering to penetrate into the sword in the hand, and permanently change the nature of the weapon in hand.It is said that this has nothing to do with domineering, and no one believes it.

If Hawkeye Mihawk's arrogance is not strong, how could he be able to develop a black knife?In fact, Hawkeye's domineering level is no less than those top big pirates.

Every time Shanks and Hawkeye fight, it is not just an exchange of swordsmanship as many people imagine.

It is said that the swordsmanship in the world of pirates is based on arrogance and physique. Even after Sauron became a teacher under Hawkeye, the swordsmanship taught to him by Mihawk contained arrogance.With Mihawk's arrogant character, if Shanks and him do not use domineering.I'm afraid he will think it as an insult!
In other words, the strength of Hawkeye is not inferior to Shanks at all, and even in the recent communication, there is a tendency to surpass Shanks.

And such Hawkeye, after every fight with Doflamingo.But he has never won a victory. Of course, Shanks is very curious about how strong Doflamingo is.

As we all know, Doflamingo's most powerful ability is his illusion devil fruit ability. The originally mediocre illusion fruit has been developed to an unimaginable level in the hands of Doflamingo.

And Hawkeye has fought against Doflamingo so many times, and he hasn't even forced out his fruit ability. In Shanks' view, this kind of strength, even his former captain Roger, is probably better than that. Doflamingo was less impressive.

Taking a deep breath, Shanks quickly calmed down.

He is also a top pirate now, so he naturally has his own magnanimity. He was just excited just now, so he ignored the surrounding environment.

Although in this life, the name of the Four Emperors has not been truly implemented because of other big pirates who came out of the advancing city, but his strength is not inferior to the original one, and even better.

After all, this time, he didn't put an arm on the new era.

"Well, it's hard to find a place suitable for fighting here. Let me do it!"

Doflamingo said as if suddenly thinking of something.

Afterwards, he took a long breath, faced the distant sea, and let it out in one breath, which immediately turned into a monstrous ice storm!
