One Piece: Free Ronin

At night, Flo and Yixiao returned to the rooms prepared by Candy to rest.

Perhaps due to the excessive energy consumption before, Flo fell into a deep sleep almost as soon as her body touched the bed.

Yixiao sat cross-legged on the bed in his room, still thinking about Flo's words during the day in his mind.

Thinking about Flo's style...

In fact, he knew in his heart that agreeing to join Flo's newly formed pirate group did not mean that he recognized Flo, but more that he was curious about the boy himself and his origins.

Although he is only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, he has already mastered the use of the three colors of Haki. In particular, the Haki of the three colors is so powerful that he can sense the strength of other people's auras. You know, even his own Haki Because I lost my eyes, I only reached that level after constantly honing my perception.

If we talk about strength, he may be ranked in the middle level of combat power in this sea now. But in terms of courage, it undoubtedly exceeds that of most people...

His thoughts were definitely not instilled by Rocks, who once dominated the sea... This is what makes Yixiao feel weird. An ambitious man who once wanted to dominate the world taught a young man who seemed to have no interest in power but was passionate about freedom.

"Do you just want to find a group of interesting partners and witness the waves that are still dormant in this era but will surely sweep the entire world?" Yixiao whispered to himself.

"It's not bad to follow him first. Wandering on this sea alone will be a bit boring. In the next period of time, let me see if he is qualified to be my captain... Don't let me down. "

The next morning.

Flo got up before dawn and started exercising. He used the exercise equipment on Candy's boat to consume his energy crazily. Several pirates on watch in the corner were once again shocked and speechless by his monster power. Come.

A pirate lowered his voice and exclaimed: "Is this really what humans can achieve? Those pieces of iron weigh a thousand kilograms in total. In his hand, it feels like an ordinary iron sword when slashing. Have you done two thousand chops, right? In addition, you also did more than a thousand push-ups while carrying a barbell weighing more than 800 kilograms..."

Another pirate swallowed his saliva and answered in a low voice: "Before you came, he had been squatting on horseback for more than an hour with two iron blocks of 500 kilograms each in his arms..."

Gudong~ A pirate swallowed a mouthful of saliva in horror and said weakly: "How much energy is stored in his body, and his terrifying endurance... No wonder he has such a big appetite. This is the real strong man. ?"

Of course Flo noticed someone peeking around the corner, but he didn't pay much attention.

The pirates' discussion was also clearly heard in his ears, and he thought to himself: "What kind of strong man is this... What if you saw the kind of strong man who can easily launch attacks that change the landscape by raising his hand?" I'm going to be scared to death..."

He gently placed the barbells strung together with iron rods on the ground, stood up, exhaled lightly, and casually wiped the sweat from his face.

He whispered to himself with some regret: "The effect of this level of exercise is no longer great...Although if you persist every day, your strength will still increase to a certain extent, it should not be of much significance. If you want to go further, you need to do more." It’s a big load..."

Clenching his fists hard, the two black fists collided with each other, making a sound of steel colliding.

It reminds me that in his youth, Garp used mountains instead of sandbags to practice boxing in order to beat the green pepper monster, and he smashed eight mountains into pieces...

He murmured: "This power is still far from enough..."

Then he made a leap, and his figure disappeared on the spot. The next second, he was sitting cross-legged on the hound-shaped horn on the bow of the ship.

Looking at the increasingly bright sky in the east, I took a deep breath...

He pulled out the 'Tian Zhan' with the scabbard and placed it on his thigh. He gently stroked the dark scabbard with his left hand and whispered: "It's best not to absorb too much domineering energy this time, otherwise I will throw you into the world." Go to the sea..."

As he spoke, his right hand tightly grasped the handle of the knife.

In an instant, his armed and domineering energy was released uncontrollably, and his right arm immediately turned pitch black.

Flo closed his eyes, feeling the flow of hegemony with his heart, and began to compete with the 'Tianzhan' for control of his own hegemony with all his concentration.

In Flo's view, this is an indispensable step to tame the 'Tian Zhan'. To defeat it willfully, we must first resist its influence on Flo's spirit and domineering spirit.

Try your best to eliminate the waves of killing intent that arise in your heart from time to time, and also restrain the constant urge to draw the sword, plus the battle of domineering.

Flo's entire body and mind became a battlefield, with one man and one demon sword fighting in a world like a sea of ​​blood.

It wasn't until the sun all jumped out of the sea level that Flo opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes suddenly flashed like lightning. He released his hand holding the handle of the knife, and withdrew his domineering energy into his body, feeling the domineering energy flowing continuously in his body. Although the volume is reduced by nearly 10%, it is much easier to control.

Considering that he had to cross the windless zone later today, although he had the help of Uncle Yixiao's ability, his condition could not be too bad, so this contest with 'Tian Zhan' did not last too long.

Putting the 'Tian Zhan' back into his waist, he stood up and looked at the rising sun. Suddenly holding his breath and concentrating, he crouched slightly on his knees, slowly holding the handle of the 'Black Blade' with his right hand, accumulating sword power.

His eyes were fixed on the hazy sun in the sky, until his mind seemed to be completely integrated into the dark dagger.

He shouted softly: "Short Blade·Black Sword Hiruzen"

The 'black blade' was slashed at a speed that seemed slow but was actually fast. This slash was filled with Flo's whole heart. Suddenly, a half-moon-shaped slash emitting a dark light appeared in front of Flo, moving towards him at an extremely fast speed. The sun flew away just above the sea level, and the bottom of the slash cut a gap of about ten meters wide on the sea...

Watching the slash flying straight towards the sky and gradually disappearing in the brilliance of the sun.

Flo finally fell onto the corner and almost fell into the sea.

He sat cross-legged and inserted the 'Black Blade' back into his waist. He rubbed his eyebrows with one hand and said to himself tiredly: "It's really exhausting. Just looking at the sunrise, I suddenly felt the urge to swing the knife. But Hehe, that sword cut was really vivid, haha, this should be regarded as breaking through the level of cutting iron and officially advancing to the sword master... Fortunately, all these years of sword practice have not been in vain, Rocks is holding this Even though it is a wooden sword, the beatings I received during so many pure swordsmanship sparring sessions were very painful..."

Feeling the feeling of wielding the knife just now, the illusion that his mind extended to the black blade and his heart followed the knife, the corners of Flo's mouth slightly raised...

He thought to himself: "Although I was lucky enough to be able to chop and slash, it is still far from the state of cutting everything... I will try to incorporate domineering into my slashing in the future. In that case, the cutting power should be Be stronger."

"If you want to improve your swordsmanship, you have to think of ways to challenge swordsmen everywhere when you have time..."

In this way, I planned in my mind the subsequent training process of swordsmanship and my understanding of the way of swordsmanship...

Time passed quietly, and no one disturbed Flo, who was sitting in deep thought.

Until a loud roar woke him up.

He opened his eyes suddenly, stood up, and quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.

A huge sea king that looked like a manatee appeared in front of Flo.

Its size is as big as the pirate ship they are currently riding on. It is staring at a pair of blood-red pupils and roaring at the pirate ship with its big mouth open...

At this time, Yixiao suddenly jumped to Flo's side, and he said in a gentle tone: "It seems that we are very close to the windless zone. I have already sensed that there are sea kings in the deep sea."

Flo stared at the Neptunes who were demonstrating in this direction, licked his dry lips, and responded: "Well, then it's time for us to set off, but before we go, how about we hold a banquet?"

"Yes, yes, but it's best not to make too much noise. If we attract too many Sea Kings, we may be able to leave easily, but the ship may sink here." Yixiao nodded slightly.

"Ah, this is very simple, just look at me! Hahaha"

As he said that, Flo jumped up high, and his figure flew towards the sea king at high speed in the air.

Arriving in the sky in front of it, he swooped down and stared into the eyes of the Neptune that was looking up at him. He unleashed his domineering aura and blasted straight towards the Neptune with an awe-inspiring sense of oppression.

Suddenly, its roar stopped, and its blood-red eyes widened, with a look of fear flashing inside.

It was too late, but it was quick. Taking advantage of the moment when it was shocked, Flo drew out the 'black blade' neatly. With fierce power, he swung the knife...

There was only a flash of sword light, and Flo and the huge body of the Neptune type staggered past.

Then Flo fell heavily into the sea, and a bloodstain gradually appeared on the short and thick neck of the Neptune creature, and then the entire head slowly began to slide downwards. At this time, its face was still The expression of fear when he was shocked by Flo's domineering power was frozen...

After a while, Flo climbed onto the boat all wet, and said to a group of pirates who were gathered around the deck to watch the fun: "Hurry up and get the body of the sea beast! There's a party! Hahahaha, hurry up and get them all." Let’s make it a delicious meal!”

Then came the cheers of joy from a group of people. Then they rowed boats into the sea in small groups and began to decompose the bodies of the Neptune species.

Some people are responsible for cutting and decomposing, some are responsible for transporting it to the ship, and some people are left on the ship to start baking...

Just like that, a steady stream of delicious sea animal meat appeared on the large dining table on the deck.

Flo had already started stuffing food into his mouth very quickly. While swallowing, he greeted with a smile: "Uncle, please eat more. We will need your help to cross the windless zone later."

There was no politeness in his smile, and he quickly began to destroy the hill-like pile of meat, but the amount of food he ate was far greater than that of Froswen.

The two of them ate nearly three-quarters of the sea animal's meat before they stopped eating. They both burped and slumped on the recliner, saying that they could no longer eat...

It took Flo several times to fully digest this huge energy. At this time, he felt extremely energetic, and the energy in his cells felt like it was overflowing.

Seeing the large group of pirates who had started to grab food after breaking down the sea beasts, he still wanted to eat, but his body really couldn't hold it anymore, so he had to give up in frustration.

Yixiao ate a lot, and looking at his body shape, Flo knew that he must also have mastered the method of quickly digesting food to obtain energy. At this time, his body also felt like it was about to burst with abundant energy.

The two rested for a while, and when the pirates were almost full, Flo got up and walked towards Candy. As he walked, he asked: "Uncle Werewolf, have you arranged the things you prepared yesterday?" ? It’s time for us to set off, we are already very close to the windless zone, and you should leave here as soon as possible.”

When he saw Flo coming this way, Candy hurriedly greeted him. Upon hearing his question, Candy nodded and replied: "Don't worry, everything is ready."

Flo didn't say much nonsense. He nodded to Candy and turned to Yixiao and shouted: "Uncle Yixiao, everything is ready. It's time for us to set off."

"Here it comes," Yixiao replied as he stood up from the recliner and walked slowly towards Flo's direction with a wooden stick.

Then the two of them followed Candy to the small wooden boat that had been prepared before.

It was confirmed that the boat contained enough fresh water for two people to drink for three or four days, as well as some roasted sea animal meat. To Flo's surprise, there was also a pair of flip-flops and a set of clothes.

Flo smiled and nodded at Candy's fawning expression. Said: "Believe me, look for an opportunity to join the Whitebeard Pirates. It should be the safest place for you."

Then he turned around and waved, saying, "See you again when you have the chance."

He and Yixiao put the wooden boat into the sea, jumped in, and both of them stood firmly on the wooden boat. Flo sat down, picked up the oar, and rowed the boat to the north...
