Pirate: My saber is a shining single scabbard

"pity…"

Seeing that his attack only scratched Hughes' skin, Como reluctantly cursed.

"I haven't used a gun for so long, I'm a little rusty."

As he whispered, he pulled a second revolver from his suit.

The next moment, two dark gun barrels were pointed directly at Hughes off the court.

"I won't believe how lucky you are next!"

After saying that, Como pulled the trigger with both hands continuously, and four bullets whizzed towards the target.

Because of the previous attack, Hughes had long been wary of the old guy Como.

Pointing his toes, he snaked his way toward Como while dodging the incoming bullets.

However, Hughes found that his forward and dodge directions were blocked by incoming bullets.

He had no choice but to stop and wave his single scabbard to shoot down the flying bullets one by one.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another wave of shots aimed at his vitals had hit.

"trouble..."

Hughes knew he couldn't let things continue to develop like this.

After all, this is the headquarters of the Como family. Once it is dragged down and caught in the siege of other experts, the situation will be a little bad.

After making up his mind, Hughes sank down, holding the hilt of the sword with both hands and continuing to accumulate strength.

At the same time, dark purple energy surged out from the scabbard of the single sword.

"Shadow Slash"

The next moment, the blood-red heavy sword suddenly slashed down!

A slightly smaller crescent-shaped energy chopper than before suddenly attacked the flying bullets.

The energy chop instantly defeated the four bullets, and then flew towards Como above.

"not good!"

Como's expression suddenly changed. He had experienced the power of this attack before.

Without caring about his face, he quickly flew to the side to dodge.

Before Como fell to the ground, the position where he was standing was bombarded by the energy chopper.

In an instant, the floor cracked, the house shook, and waves of wind and waves swept through!

The crowd of onlookers evacuated the scene of the battle after being affected by the "metal sound", and this time they did not make the same mistake again.

"good chance!"

Hughes looked at Como's embarrassed appearance and immediately took advantage of the situation to pursue him.

However...

While running, he suddenly felt a fierce aura locking onto him.

He immediately switched his attack and slashed the blood-red heavy sword to the side.

clang~

The sword body collided with a long knife, causing bursts of sparks to fly!

Hughes took a closer look and saw that the person blocking him was a middle-aged one-eyed swordsman.

A hideous scar ran through the blind eye on his face, which was extremely eye-catching.

Looking at this familiar figure, Hughes frowned slightly.

This swordsman's name is Bader, a core member of the Como family and the person he is most familiar with in the family.

Three years ago, when he first joined the Como family, Bud valued his talent in swordsmanship and casually taught him some basics of swordsmanship.

Later, he became a master of swordsmanship and had several sparring sessions with Bard.

It's hard to say that they are both teachers and friends, but they still have a harmonious relationship.

"Bud, I don't want to fight you, can you give in a little bit?"

However, Bard had no intention of evading, and the force on the long knife became a little stronger.

Hughes still wants to try it.

"This is a personal grudge between me and Como and has nothing to do with the family. Can you not see the killing spree against me today?"

The look on Bud's face was still serious.

"Sorry, I can't let you pass."

"If you just stop and leave, I will not stop you but will restrain the family members from pursuing you, including Como."

clang clang ~

During the exchange, the swords of both sides collided with each other more than a dozen times.

clang~

Hughes increased his strength suddenly, swung away Bard's long knife and jumped back to distance himself.

"I have a question I've wanted to ask you for a long time."

Hughes expressed his doubts: "Why would a swordsman of your level be in such a gang?"

Judging from previous contacts, Bard is at least a swordsman in the iron-cutting realm.

In terms of swordsmanship alone, he is no match for Bard now.

A swordsman of this strength can gain a reputation even in the first half of the great route where masters gather.

Now in his prime, he was living in a gang, and he was a little curious as to why.

"Sorry, no comment."

"let it go."

He was just curious. There was no one in this sea who didn't have a story. There was no need to know everything.

"but..."

Hughes changed the subject and said coldly:

"I'm going to decide this old guy Como's life. It's useless for anyone to come!"

After saying that, Hughes launched a more violent offensive.

clang clang ~

For a moment, the banquet hall was filled with swords and swords.

The fierce aftermath of the battle shattered the surrounding tables, chairs and objects into pieces!

Above the banquet hall.

Como stared at Hughes off the court uncertainly, still frightened by the previous attack.

For a moment, Como raised the revolver in his hand.

But the barrel of the gun swung for a long time without pulling the trigger.

Because the two men fighting off the court were too fast and entangled in close quarters, he was not sure of hitting Hughes, not to mention the risk of accidentally injuring Bader.

Although Como could not take action, he was relieved.

Now that Bud takes action, Hughes is no longer a threat to him.

"Hmph, if Bard completely obeys me, a mere brat will not need to waste so much effort."

Bard's position in the family is equivalent to his bodyguard, which is the result of his great favor to Bard.

Como looked at Hughes, who was being beaten and gradually falling into a disadvantage, and suddenly felt a burst of joy in his heart.

"Hmph, Baker Hughes...when you can't hold it any longer, I will kill you myself!"

off the field.

Hughes withstood the pressure and forced Bader away again, breathing lightly after pulling away.

"Sure enough, it's hard to defeat this guy with ordinary swordsmanship alone."

"It's been a long time since I've had such a hearty battle."

After Hughes adjusted his breath slightly, he clenched the hilt of the sword with both hands and began to accumulate strength.

At the same time, the sword blade of the single scabbard began to flash white light, which was a precursor to using "Split".

After accumulating power to its peak, Hughes suddenly flew out and slashed down hard with the heavy sword in his hand.

"One sword flow, tongue pulling out"

Facing Hughes's fierce offensive, Bard's body sank, and he also slashed out with both swords.

clang!

The heavy sword and the long knife collided together again, and powerful wind and waves swept across all directions!

Hughes looked at the rock-steady Bard in front of him, his face becoming a little more solemn.

The sword move "Tongue Pulling" combines his explosive power and the splitting skill effect of the single scabbard, and it is considered to be his most powerful sword skill.

Even Bentley's steel armor was shattered by this move, but he was unable to do anything to the one-eyed swordsman in front of him!

Sure enough, Bard's swordsmanship skills were still above his own.

But the more this happened, the more excited he became.

It is so rare to meet such a powerful swordsman who is not beyond his endurance!

clang clang ~

The swords of both sides collided dozens of times in an instant!

The next moment, Bader suddenly exerted his strength and knocked Hughes back with a powerful and heavy slash.

"Are you still planning to give up?"

Bud tried to discourage Hughes from fighting.

"Your strength has progressed beyond my expectation. In time, you will definitely surpass me and become a strong man on the sea."

"But you are not my opponent yet!"

Hughes had a different opinion: "How will you know if you don't try?"

When Bud heard this, his expression gradually became serious.

"In this case, I will make you give up completely!"
