The bloody sword hero of the pirate king

"You have one thing to do, but I also have one thing to do."

"After all, I am the one who has been beaten all the time!"

With a defiant smile on Klick's face, ten pistols flowed out from under the armor with a few "clicks", aimed at Hawkeye and pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang bang...!!"

For a moment, the flames on Klick's body danced, and a burst of gunshots erupted.

"It's really good, a man who doesn't know how to live or die."

Hawkeye held the black knife on his back with his right hand, and swung it suddenly in the direction of Klick.

"Shh!"

With a flash of the knife, the gunfire stopped abruptly.

"Leader Creek!"

Ah Jin, who was standing on the deck of the sea restaurant, exclaimed, and immediately jumped onto the wreckage of the pirate ship.

"Ah, Captain?"

The pirates couldn't help exclaiming as they looked at Ajin who kept jumping on the wreckage.

"Leader Creek!"

Ajin came to the deck where Hawkeye was, and the area where Creek was stationed was covered by a lot of gunpowder smoke, and he couldn't see the situation of Creek in the smoke.

"Oh!"

When the gunpowder smoke cleared, everyone saw Klick kneeling on the ground.

And on his chest, a knife wound from left to right was revealed, and even the hard and strong steel alloy armor was split open.

"Leader Creek!"

Ajin immediately stepped forward to support Klick, but Klick was already unable to stand up again.

"cough…"

Creek moved his lips, but suddenly coughed up a big mouthful of blood.

"Stop talking, Chief Creek!"

With tears in his eyes, Ah Jin, who supported Klick, looked at Hawkeye tremblingly, begging.

"Please, please let Chief Klick go!"

"We will never fight against you, nor will we do anything to the people here!"

Facing Ajin's pleading, Hawkeye remained indifferent, but turned around silently, facing the direction of the sea restaurant Bharati.

"What... what does he want to do?"

"Could it be that you haven't chopped enough, and you still want to find something to chop?"

The chefs of the restaurant on the sea looked at the figure looking at them, the corners of their mouths twitched, and their lips trembled.

"Could it be that he is hungry and wants to eat in our restaurant?"

Zhepu flicked his two long whips, and laughed.

"How is it possible, boss!"

Paddy was the first to retort, and the cooks didn't think it was funny either.

"Dad, he seems to be watching us."

Ilya tugged at the sleeve of his father Iss, and the others noticed that Hawkeye had set his sights on Iss.

"Are you Ice, the president of the Helen Chamber of Commerce?"

Hawkeye looked at Iss standing in the sea restaurant and asked.

"Exactly."

Yisi nodded without explaining too much.

"What's your relationship with Dockhart Grunt?"

Hawkeye asked again, causing Iss to frown. He didn't know what Hawkeye was asking.

"Just a childhood playmate."

Ice didn't plan to tell him anything more, and only described himself as a childhood playmate.

"Hey old man, who is Dorkhart?"

Sanji, who was puffing out smoke rings, heard a new name, subconsciously asked Zhepu.

"It has nothing to do with you, and it's useless to say it."

Zhepu didn't answer. The name Dokhart Gurant was too far away for these people, and it didn't matter whether he said it or not.

"Tch, I don't think you know it yourself."

Sanji said unhappily that Nami, Luffy and others were also listening to the conversation between Hawkeye and Iss.

Even Creek, who was seriously injured, was just sitting on the deck, looking gloomy at the two people who were communicating.

"The Scarlet Pirates allow your Chamber of Commerce to trade in and out of the New World, and will send ships to escort them every time, until your merchant ships leave the New World and reach the first half of the great route."

"It should be more than just a childhood playmate."

Hawkeye crossed his arms and said in a deep voice.

"I didn't mean any harm, I just asked if you could contact him."

Ice breathed a sigh of relief at the words behind Hawkeye, and he didn't want to affect him because of any grievances between Hawkeye and Gurante.

"I can help you contact him, right now."

"But let me ask, why don't you go to the territory of the Scarlet Pirates and meet him in person?"

Iss took out a red phone bug with the logo of the Scarlet Pirates painted on its shell, and asked Hawkeye at the same time.

"Because his territory...is not easy to enter."

Hawkeye said with a blank expression on his face.

His face was startled, and then he smiled inwardly.

It was only then that he remembered that every time he entered the waters of the Scarlet Pirates, he was escorted by someone, and no one would investigate or stop him.

But other forces are different.

No matter where they come from, they must be registered, just like Gurant's previous life visa.

Moreover, this is only limited to ordinary people.

If someone like Hawkeye approached the territory of the Four Emperors for no reason, it might be regarded as a provocation or a harbinger of war, which would cause panic among the people.

"Bell, blah, blah..."

Immediately, Yisi called the Scarlet Pirates.

"This is the Talia Island Municipal Building, the headquarters of the Scarlet Pirates."

A female voice came from the phone. She was a specialist responsible for liaising with various forces and countries under the Scarlet Pirates.

"I'm Esther Strauss, please transfer me to Master Gurant."

"Master Yisi, please wait a moment."

The commissioner in charge of answering the phone knew his identity, and the other party was someone who had a close relationship with that lord.

"Crash..."

The sea breeze blew past, and waves beat against the hull of the ship, stirring up spray.

"Ale, why is everyone silent?"

"Is that guy named Master Gurant very powerful?"

On the boat where Sauron and the others were, Luffy scratched his nostrils with his little finger, looking like a Teletubbies.

"Idiot, don't spoil the atmosphere at this time."

Usopp rushed to Luffy's side, covering his mouth and nose with cold sweat, telling him to shut up.

"No, let me go."

Luffy struggled hard, and Usopp got into a mess, making the boat wobble.

"Bang! Bang!"

In the end, it was Nami who gave each of them a chestnut, and then calmed down, waiting for the call to be connected with everyone.

"Gollum..."

Some pirates were too nervous and swallowed their throats.

For a moment, it caused a chain reaction of throat agitation.

Even an existence like Hawkeye, the world's number one swordsman, had to wait for the person on the other end of the phone.

Who is that guy named Gurante?

"Click."

Suddenly, Yisi's expression changed, and the phone bug in his hand finally responded.

"Already connected?"

Zhepu lowered his arms even more, and subconsciously grasped the railing on the deck with both hands, seeming a little nervous.

"Smelly old man..."

Sanji and several chefs noticed his movements, and couldn't help but look worried. This was the first time they saw Boss Zhepu's nervous appearance.

Under everyone's gaze, the red phone bug slowly opened its eyes as if it had just woken up.

"Iss, what can I do for you?"

A deep and magnetic middle-aged man's voice sounded from the phone bug.

"Guru..."

Usopp swallowed nervously, just hearing the voice, he could imagine how superior the man on the other end of the phone was.

"Hawkeye... I need you for something."

Iss also had a drop of cold sweat on his head. Gurante's momentum was so strong that he could clearly feel it even through the phone bug.

"where is he?"

"I am here."

As soon as Gurant finished speaking, Hawkeye answered.

"Jolacole Mihawk, what's the matter?"

Joracle Mihawk lowered his eyes, his golden pupils seemed to be burning with fighting intent, and his tone was low.

"You still remember the Chambord Islands 17 years ago."

The red phone bug narrowed its eyes, as if recalling something.

"I see, the duel that was interrupted by the navy 17 years ago..."

"So, are you here to challenge me today?"

"Exactly."

"You already have the reputation of [World's No. [-] Swordsman], aren't you afraid of being defeated by me?"

In Gurant's words, there is a strong self-confidence, as if he is sure that he will win.

"It is precisely because of the reputation of [the world's number one swordsman] that I feel this unreality."

"Not true?"

"Because of your existence, this reputation is not worthy of the name."

"Because I haven't defeated you yet!"

"Hmph~haha~hahahaha~!!!"

The red phone bug in Yisi's hand was laughing wildly up to the sky, and an unparalleled aura was released through the phone bug, affecting the mood of everyone present.

Joracle Mihawk folded his arms around his chest, closed his eyes, and waited for Gurant's response.

"Your gauntlet, I take it!"

After a long time, Gurant stopped laughing and responded to Hawkeye's gauntlet.

"However, the time will be set in two years."

"why?"

Joracle Mihawk suddenly opened his eyes. He didn't understand why Gurant postponed the duel until two years later.

"why?"

Gurant repeated the three words he said, with a low tone.

"Because now I am standing at the center of the times."

"The gears of fate have begun to turn, and the past and future of the world will soon usher in a turning point."

"I will accumulate strength to deal with the coming war."

Hawkeye fell silent. He closed his eyes and meditated. After a while, he said in a deep voice.

"You mean, you are about to attack the world government again?"

"Yes, this time, the world government will surely perish."

"The world government that has ruled the world for 800 years is coming to an end."

Gurant responded, and Hawkeye opened his eyes again with sharp eyes.

"Eight years ago, you formed an alliance with the Golden Lion and turned the world government upside down. Half of the Tianlong people died because of this, and the navy and pirates were killed and injured."

"Gurant, you who waged wars again and again."

"What is it that you want behind your back?"

When Gurante was talking to Hawkeye, everyone present, whether they were pirates or chefs, were already so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear.

war?Attack the world government?Turn the world government upside down?Navy pirates killed and injured countless?

One of these words is enough to shake the world, and they are still together?

"Humans are stupid creatures, clinging to the past and shrinking from the future."

Gurant didn't answer directly, he just said a paragraph.

"This chaotic world needs to usher in change."
