One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Max-Level Swordsman

Just now Ling Tian used the virtual space to practice the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu. Now Ling Tian can open the fifth gate, Dumen.

However, the condition for unlocking the sixth gate, Jingmen, is to defeat Might Guy who opened the Dumen. And it is not the Might Guy who enters the Dumen normally, but the Might Guy who enters the Sage Mode.

The Eight Gates of Ninjutsu is originally designed to remove the restrictions on one's own chakra to the greatest extent. Coupled with the Sage Mode's drastic strengthening of chakra and body, the Might Guy who has opened the Du Gate in the virtual space is probably able to compete with Might Guy who has opened the Jing Gate.

……

"Haven't we arrived yet, Usopp?" Luffy asked anxiously, supporting himself on the bow with both hands and looking eagerly into the distance.

"Not yet!" Usopp held a telescope, observing the front intently, then turned around and responded.

Zoro frowned, staring at the sea in the distance, thinking to himself: "The island shouldn't be far away from us."

According to common sense, they should be approaching the island by now.

"Yes, the climate has been very stable since just now." Kuina also looked ahead and said thoughtfully, "We should have entered the island climate sea area here."

Hearing this, Zoro couldn't help but look at Kuina with some curiosity and asked, "How do you know this?"

Kuina smiled and explained, "These are all taught to me by Nami. When I was still Bloodthirster, I often stayed with Nami, so I learned a lot about sailing from her."

So that's how it is. Zoro nodded in sudden realization.

"That's right, we have entered the island climate sea area." Nami looked up at the sky and said in an affirmative tone.

"So that means that the island is Spring Island!" Luffy, lying leisurely on the sheep's head of the Merry, took over the conversation.

Even though he seems a little unreliable on weekdays, he still knows a thing or two about the basic common sense of these islands.

"The weather is so warm and comfortable~" Chopper leaned comfortably on the fence of the Merry and exclaimed sincerely: "Spring is such a wonderful season, even the seagulls seem to enjoy it particularly!" After that, Chopper raised his head and followed the seagulls flying freely in the sky.

At this moment, Usopp, standing on the observation deck, suddenly shouted alertly: "It seems like there is a gunshot!"

As an experienced and professionally trained sniper, Usopp is extremely sensitive to the sound of bullets.

Especially after two years of training, he has become even more sharp.

Sure enough, as soon as Usopp finished speaking, three crisp noises were heard - "bang", "bang", and "bang". Then, three seagulls that were originally flying happily in the sky fell onto the Merry one after another.

"Ah!" Chopper screamed in shock and watched three seagulls falling from the sky.

He was just admiring the seagulls flying freely, but he never imagined that they would suffer misfortune in the blink of an eye.

"Oh, I can make grilled bird!" As soon as Luffy saw the seagull, the delicious grilled bird dish immediately emerged in his mind, and his mouth couldn't help but drool.

Usopp stared at the three seagulls that landed on the Merry and said thoughtfully: "Judging from the sound, the bullet seemed to be fired from the bow."

"You mean someone was shooting from a distance that we can't see, and was able to accurately hit these three seagulls right above the Merry? This is unbelievable!" Nami couldn't help but feel confused and complained after hearing what Usopp said.

After all, when they looked forward, there was nothing in sight. Even if there was an island ahead, it was at least several thousand meters away from the Merry.

At such a long distance, it is simply a fantasy to want to shoot the seagull above the Merry.

"No, Usopp is right. Look, this is a bullet." Chopper said as he carefully took a bullet from the seagull and handed it to Nami.

Before Nami could express her opinion, Ling Tian had already walked to Chopper's side, took the bullet and examined it carefully.

"Ling Tian!" Chopper stared at the bullet in Ling Tian's hand with a serious look.

"It was indeed that guy's doing. It seems that guy must be on Gaya Island!"

After Ling Tian carefully examined the bullet in his hand for a while, he spoke with a gloomy expression.

According to the plot setting in the original work, these three seagulls were shot down by Van Oka, the sniper in the Blackbeard Pirates.

Since Van Oka is on Gaya Island, according to the original plot, Blackbeard himself must be hiding on Gaya Island.

"That person? Lingtian, what are you talking about?" Nami, who was standing aside, heard Lingtian's words and asked with a puzzled look on her face.

However, Ling Tian did not directly respond to Nami's question, but just said lightly: "It's okay, don't worry."

He knew very well that it would be useless even if he told Nami the truth at this time.

Moreover, even though he had recognized that the bullet came from the Blackbeard Pirates' sniper Van Oka, he could not act rashly at this moment because the injuries he had sustained in his previous training in the virtual space had not yet healed.

You know, Blackbeard is not a character you can easily mess with.

Blackbeard is one of only two people in this ocean (the other one is the King of the Near Sea) who can inflict irreparable wounds on Red-Haired Shanks. His strength is unfathomable.

……

"Wow! That's great! The town ahead looks great!" The Merry continued to sail forward and soon arrived at Gaya Island.

From a distance, the island is picturesque and beautiful.

"Do you feel like this is a resort?" Usopp said to Chopper excitedly, and the two of them looked ahead with anticipation at the island that was getting closer and closer.

"What a nice resort." Chopper also became excited after hearing Usopp's words.

"Wait a minute, I think I see several pirate ships parked at the port!"

Usopp, who was standing nearby, suddenly discovered that some of the ships parked at the port of Gaya Island looked like pirate ships, and they all had pirate flags flying on them.

Looking in the direction of Usopp's finger, just as he said, there were indeed several ships flying pirate flags anchored at the port of Gaya Island.

"Oh my, what's going on! Why is a pirate ship parked in the port so openly?" After hearing Usopp's words, Nami hurried over and complained with dissatisfaction on her face.

She didn't want such a beautiful resort to be destroyed by these hateful pirates, even though Nami herself is now a pirate.

And according to common sense, ordinary pirate ships usually don't dare to dock at the ports on small islands easily.
