Chapter 644 Man's Romance
This somewhat familiar roar made the four of Ace look at each other in blank dismay. They didn't expect that the green pepper had just been defeated by them, and met Luffy in a blink of an eye.
Although they all felt that the young Luffy would not be the opponent of the strong old man who was able to fight against Ace just now, but after being beaten by Ace, the proud cone head of Qingjiao was beaten back .
Losing the most powerful cone head, plus the battle with Ace, although it was not obvious at the time, there must be a lot of injuries on the body, plus the poor recovery ability of the elderly.
With green peppers in that state, maybe they will really be defeated by Luffy, no, they will definitely be defeated by Luffy.
Although Ace has always said that Luffy is not as good as him, Ace also knows that he really can't defeat that brat Luffy before he really shows his cards against the enemy.
In addition, using the method of awakening the ability of the devil fruit and the domineering entanglement of the domineering look is originally Ace's vent after some embarrassment and anger. Even if he doesn't use all his strength, if he just fights the enemy normally, the green pepper may not be Ace's opponent.
Qingjiao is different from the self who was able to force Garp to sharpen his domineering aura decades ago. His heart has been ashamed for decades, his strength has stagnated, and he has even been retreating constantly.
Coupled with being defeated by the younger generation one after another, and encountering such incidents in the family, even if Qingjiao is restored to the state of awl head, the strength he can show is far inferior to when he was young.
What's more, Qingjiao is good at physical attack, and as a rubber man, Luffy is not strong in other things, and his ability to take hits and resist blows is quite outstanding.
Therefore, the few of them are not worried that Luffy will be defeated. Even if Luffy is not as experienced as Qingjiao, there is still a strong man like Abel who has been in the sea for many years.
No matter how bad it is, Luffy is also staying with Sabo at this time. Sabo's physical skills and armed domineering attainments, Ace has seen it two years ago. Sabo's physical skills and armed domineering are not inferior to Poni .
And because there are more actual combats, Sabo's actual combat experience far surpasses all his peers. In this regard, Ace, who was born in the "academic school", dare not say that he can catch up with Sabo even after going through the new world battles in the past two years.
Therefore, even if there is a battle, Ace firmly believes that Luffy and Sabo are fine, but this is not a problem.
The problem is that this is Totlan. Katakuri said that he would not shoot Ace and the others, but he did not say that he would not shoot others.
Luo's reaction was the fastest, and he immediately looked at Katakuri, and Katakuri, who was originally talking with Mihawk, didn't change the slightest, and didn't seem to care about it.
And the reason. Mihawk heard the shout from a distance and said, "Aren't you going to stop it?"
Katakuri chewed with his mouth surrounded by the scarf, and waited until he swallowed the food before saying, "Does the redhead think that his behavior in Marin Fando is stupid?"
"Stupid, very stupid."
Mihawk also raised his glass and took a sip. The younger drink made him frown slightly. Is this also called wine? I'm afraid only Skyler would like to drink it, right?
Then he put down the glass, didn't want to drink any more, but asked, "Then you let those young people mess around? You are indeed not as stupid as Shanks.
But it's not sensible enough to let young people trample on Totland's face, right? "
Katakuri raised his hand, palm facing up, five fingers pointing to the sky, fingers with distinct knuckles, but now they are like five rice cakes, and then said:
"It's easy to solve, as long as there are such activities in Totland, won't it be enough?"
Hearing this, Mihawk nodded, then looked at the guests who were approaching over there, and said, "Yeah, if it's just a tea party, it would be too boring.
By the way, out of courtesy, I should pay a visit to Charlotte Lingling, right? "
Hearing what Mihawk said, Katakuri was not surprised. After all, two years ago, after the war on the top, everyone in the Shichibukai except Haku participated in the post-war banquet.
Although Katakuri did not tell anyone about the news of his mother's resurrection, this Mihawk claimed to have a pair of eyes that see through everything. He guessed this, and Katakuri was not surprised at all.
Katakuri nodded and said, "Of course, by the way, how about my younger sisters? Do you have any favorites? I can introduce them for you."
Seeing Katakuri say such words with a serious face, even Mihawk couldn't help twitching the corners of his eyes and mouth, then shook his head and said:
"I didn't come to Totland for this kind of thing."
Hearing this, Katakuri looked up with a dazed expression, and hidden Perona, who was extremely surprised by hearing the incredible information, seemed to think of something, and said:
"Molia? I do have some information about him."
"What?! Really?"
Perona, who was originally in a daze, woke up instantly, with starlight in her eyes, looking at Katakuri, Katakuri nodded, and said: "Well, the Beast Pirates, some time ago, I purchased a batch of vessel.
However, there was an accident during the delivery of one of the ships. Not only did the ship fail to arrive, but even the crew of the Beast Pirates that transported the ship disappeared. "
Perona frowned and wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to talk to Katakuri. After all, compared to Mihawk, Katakuri was a very fierce uncle in her eyes.
I just asked because of excitement, but now, Perona is a little afraid to speak again. Mihawk saw Perona's worry, took the topic and asked:
"Are you sure it was Moriah who did it? There are so many accidents in the new world, so it may not be him?"
"I am very concerned about the whereabouts of the ships I sell. If it cannot reach the user, I will usually help recover it. Guess why I can always recover it?"
After Katakuri finished speaking, Mihawk nodded. Although he didn't answer, Mihawk had already guessed that it was nothing more than a pointer made of a mother-and-child magnet.
Mihawk asked with a smile: "But you didn't do this, is it because the client is the Beast Pirates?"
Katakuri also nodded very bluntly, and said, "Yes, because the client is the Hundred Beasts Pirates."
"So what does this have to do with Moriah?"
"Because the whereabouts of the lost ship is very strange. They are all post-war battlefields. There are post-war battlefields between the alliance countries and the revolutionary army, and there are also places where the navy killed pirates, and Punk Hazard also went."
After listening to what Katakuri said, Mihawk frowned. There are not many people in this sea who can do this. They are either newcomers who believe that there are treasures on the battlefield, or they have special purposes.
Of course, the former Mihawk quickly ruled it out. After all, the person who can silently rob a ship from the Beast Pirates is not a naive newcomer.
Then there is only the latter. What is there on the battlefield after the war? Nothing more than corpses.
How many people are there in this sea who are interested in these corpses? Shadow fruit ability Moria is undoubtedly the one who is most interested.
But it is not completely sure that it is Moria. After all, if Blackbeard really killed Moria, then two years later, it is very possible that this fruit will be obtained by a lucky person in the New World.
However, Mihawk decided to follow this clue. He looked at Katakuri and asked, "How can I find this ship?"
"The tea party is over, and I will send you the corresponding pointer."
Katakuri took another donut, stuffed it into his mouth surrounded by a scarf, and started chewing. Perona stamped her feet eagerly, and said:
"Why do we have to wait until the tea party is over? Can't I give it now?"
Hearing this, Katakuri shook his head and said: "This matter is not of any benefit to me. My relationship with you is not good enough to give a gift."
"Oh~"
Mihawk chuckled and said, "What a pity, I originally planned to order a ship from you, but now it seems."
Hearing Mihawk's words, Katakuri raised his legs and said, "I'm a shipbuilder here, not a coffin builder. Besides, you don't have money."
"That's the truth."
Mihawk nodded in agreement. He did have no money, because he lived a self-sufficient life. Although Shichibukai had certain dividends and subsidies, except for Haku, no Shichibukai would receive them.
If he was really short of money, Mihawk would only take one or two bottles of red wine to auction, and the money he got would be enough to buy some new seeds and farming tools.
Of course, if Mihawk likes money, he can live a rich life at any time, not only now, but also in the past, but he doesn't like it.
And he doesn't really want a new boat, after all, he is very satisfied with the current boat, but there is no bed, and Perona, a ghost girl, is not used to sitting and sleeping.
If there is a new ship, maybe this problem can be solved, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't, after all, soon, he will find Moria and return this troublesome girl.
Seeing Mihawk's indifferent expression, Katakuri swallowed back what he originally wanted to say that Mihawk would give him a new ship as long as he taught his swordsman sisters to practice swordsmanship.
After all, it's not that his younger sister can't get married, and Mihawk knows at a glance that he can't take care of others. If he really gets along with his sister, maybe his sister will be wronged.
evidence? Just look at the little girl next to Mihawk. She is about 20 years old, wearing a Gothic outfit and wearing such strange makeup. This is all because her parents didn't guide her well.
Katakuri put down his legs, stood up, and said, "Let's go, didn't you say you want to visit my mother?"
"Um."
Mihawk also nodded and got up, followed Katakuri, and walked towards the candy castle in the distance.
In the distance, near the guest's residential area, the straw hat group whose candy house was destroyed in an instant, looked around with puzzled faces at this time, with deep puzzlement in their eyes.
Because I don’t know when, the rows of neatly arranged houses around their house disappeared, no, it didn’t disappear, it seemed that they were moved and moved to a distance.
From criss-crossing the rice fields to building around the house among them, and from the house closest to them to the house far away from them, an arrangement from low to high was formed.
And under their feet, it turned into a five-cornered arena. There were five strong and thick stone pillars at the five corners, and there were grid knots between the five stone pillars.
"Buzz~"
Just when they were wondering, the ground suddenly shook, and the broken candy house was swallowed by the ground, and the whole ground also instantly rose at this moment.
The ground that had become soft and elastic just now became solid again at this time. Abel quickly scanned the surroundings, frowning, and Robin also made the same expression and said:
"We have become a ring here."
At this time, a circular Colosseum-like pattern appeared in the guest's living area. The guests and the members of the Charlotte family who were rushing here at this time were a little dazed looking at this scene. .
Especially the Charlotte family, they are very familiar with this place. A few days ago, they were rehearsing how to bring guests to their house to rest.
Even just now, there were several members of the Charlotte family who sent guests here to rest, but how long has it been? Why did the building change drastically in an instant?
Smoothie showed a puzzled look, and was about to ask a question, when a muscular figure appeared around the ring, and said to the people who came around:
"Haha~ It seems that you are all here? Originally, this is a ring that will be opened tomorrow for the younger generations of various forces to exchange ideas and exchange ideas.
But today there happened to be a small conflict between the two forces, and among the pirates, fighting is the best way to mediate the conflict, so it was activated in advance, everyone, please don't panic.
If you are interested in this battle, you can watch it here. If you feel that the view is not good, you can also go back to the residence arranged by Totland for you to watch. "
Hearing this, the guests all showed a look of sudden realization, especially those pirate forces. After all, they are not chefs or craftsmen, and many of them are only good at fighting.
But today everyone else is participating in the selection competition, but they can directly enter the venue. They thought it was the preferential treatment for "peers" by the Big Mom Pirates.
But now it seems that Katakuri does not intend to screen them, but intends to select and eliminate them as the highlight.
Only Luo frowned, thinking it was a bit weird. After all, except for the Charlotte Dafu who spoke, the other members of the Charlotte family were not so calm.
Even Smoothie, the star of the Big Mom Pirates, frowned and wondered at this time, she walked quickly to Dafu and asked, "Brother Dafu, what's going on?"
Dafu had a sad and stiff smile on his face at this time. Others didn't know him well, and maybe they would only think his expression was different from ordinary people, but Smoothie knew that his elder brother could hardly smile.
At this time, there must be something weird about the creepy smile, and when Dafu saw his sister coming, he also restrained his smile, looked at the bewildered people in the ring, and replied together:
"The Straw Hats and the Eight Treasures Navy, if you have conflicts that you want to resolve, resolve them within the arena. If you deny it or leave the arena to fight, you will be against me, Totland!"
Hearing this, the bewildered Straw Hat gang, as well as Qingjiao and Lao Cai's grandson came to their senses, Qingjiao nodded indifferently, anyway, beating up the enemy's grandson, where is it not beating?
Smoothie also understood at this time, and asked in a low voice: "Is this what Katakuri-san meant?"
Dafu nodded, and also replied in a low voice: "Well, you tell the other brothers and sisters, don't misunderstand."
"good."
After Smoothie learned that it was Katakuri's arrangement, he no longer hesitated, turned around directly, and informed them of Katakuri's arrangement when passing by his younger siblings.
Luo observed this scene and was about to explain it to Ace, but at this time Ace suddenly rushed to the ring, clasped his hands in front of his mouth like a trumpet, and shouted:
"Luffy! Don't be afraid of him! I used three moves to defeat this old guy! If you say three hundred moves, you can definitely win him!"
"Ace?!" Luffy turned his head in surprise, but when he heard what Ace said behind him, his face turned stinky instantly, and he shouted, "Do you mean that I am only one percent of yours?!"
"Aha? Did you hear it? Hahaha~"
Ace scratched his head and said with a smile, Luffy shouted angrily: "Asshole Ace, who can't hear you when you speak so bluntly?!"
But Ace didn't talk to Luffy anymore, but looked at Sabo who had a helpless smile on his face, waved his hand, and said, "Sabo! Let's have a fight tomorrow too?!"
Sabo scratched his head, looked at Klar who shook his head, and then said, "Not too good?"
"Hahaha~ Are you afraid?! After all, I have become super strong!"
As Ace said, he patted his gradually thicker chest, and said confidently, Sabo's original plan to listen to Krall's mood disappeared in an instant, and said dissatisfiedly:
"I just think it's not good to beat you in front of so many people. After all, you are a navy and need face. And if my aunt knows that you are here to cause trouble, she will be very angry, right?"
Hearing Sabo mention Skyler, Ace's smile froze, instinctively daring not to answer, but at this time, because of the outbreak just now, Qingjiao, whose injury was constantly adjusting up and down, stared at Sabo, and said:
"You are also the grandson of that old bastard Karp?! Why haven't I heard of it?! Hahaha~ But it doesn't matter, let's teach two lessons at once!"
As Qingjiao said, a ferocious smile appeared on his face, he stomped his legs, his strength exploded, and the bandage wrapped around his head instantly burst, revealing a flat and even sunken forehead.
Sabo frowned, gently separated Klar's hand from holding him, looked at Ace, and said, "How many tricks did you say you used?"
"Three strokes!"
Ace said confidently, Sabo took a step, his hands were instantly covered by the dark and thick armed color domineering, and said: "Then my two moves are enough."
Hearing what Sabo said, before Ace had time to say anything, Luffy suddenly moved his shoulders and said loudly: "Then I will do it with one move!"
"You guys! Don't go too far!"
Beside Qingjiao, Lao Cai looked at his grandfather who was trembling with anger, but he mustered up his courage, stood in front of his grandfather, and shouted to Sabo and Lu Fei who were full of fighting spirit:
"If you want to fight my grandfather, defeat me first!"
Qingjiao, who was trembling with anger, suddenly stopped
"Duang~"
Suddenly, Qingjiao slashed Lao Cai's forehead with a knife, and roared at him: "Who would say that they will lose before the battle?! You are like this now, and you still look like a pillar of the Eight Treasures Navy!" ?!"
Qingjiao was so angry that he almost lost his breath. Compared with Karp's grandsons, his grandson was really inferior, not only in strength, but also in spirit.
The three grandsons, Ace, Sabo, and Luffy, opened their mouths to win, but their own grandson put himself in a position destined to fail. Isn't this the momentum of falling into the Eight Treasures Navy? !
Lao Cai, who was hit with a knife by his grandfather, rubbed his head at this moment, grinning his teeth, with grievance in his eyes, what did he say wrong? Make your grandpa so angry?
Could it be that my grandfather thought he had the ability to fight Lieutenant General Karp's grandson?
Lao Cai was very wronged, and wanted to say that his grandfather couldn't beat Garp, why he forced himself to beat Garp's grandson, but when he thought of his father who died in battle, he couldn't tell.
After all, he knew that he was not as good as Garp's grandsons. Didn't his father know that he was not as good as Garp's son? But for the Eight Treasures Navy, his father resolutely chose to fight.
Thinking of this, Lao Cai calmed down his grievances. Although there was a big bag on his head, and there were tears and snot in the corners of his eyes and under his nose, he still mustered up his courage and shouted:
"Luffy! Sabo! Your opponent is me! I must defeat you!"
After roaring, Lao Cai rushed towards the two of them, a look of relief appeared on Qingjiao's face, the pillars of the Eight Treasures Navy need this kind of spirit! This kind of fighting spirit can smash the snow mountain!
However, the spirit and fighting spirit are enough, they are the most important strength
"Bang bang!"
Luffy's and Sabo's fists fell on Lao Cai almost at the same time. Lao Cai flew upside down in an instant, and was then caught by Qingjiao.
After falling back to the ground, Lao Cai shook his swollen and dizzy head, and was about to rush up again.
"Duang~"
Just when Lao Cai was about to take a wobbly step, the green pepper was slammed down with a knife again. Lao Cai, who was already a little unsteady, fell directly on his buttocks, and then looked up at his grandfather in confusion.
Qingjiao patted his forehead twice, lowered his body, sank his center of gravity, looked at Sabo and Luffy, and said in a deep voice:
"Lao Cai, remember, if you don't have a successor, never think about dying, because no one can carry the burden on your shoulders for you.
When you have a successor, then you can give everything for the faith in your heart, even if you die in battle, that is the romance of a man.
Just like your father! "
After the words fell, on the forehead of the green pepper, the armed color was domineering and stagnant, and then rushed towards Sabo and Luffy. Seeing his grandfather's fast but clumsy movements, Lao Cai shouted:
"grandfather!!!"
