Chapter 56: Determination to Risk One's Life

"Why?"

William had some doubts in his heart. Google search reading

The proposal he made was obviously a good situation for both parties.

Why would Coles refuse?

Faced with William's doubts.

Coles shook his head slightly, with determination in his eyes.

"Because I don't want to retreat!"

The original port of Rogge Town.

William traded Navy recruits for Jeff and successfully evacuated, which has always been an obstacle in some people's minds.

Coles was weak at that time.

Nothing can be done about it.

But today, he has the right to refuse!

William narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous aura spread out around him.

"Do you think you can beat me?"

"It's difficult!" Coles said honestly.

"Then why did you reject my proposal?" Hearing this, William became even more confused.

Bah!

Coles inserted the standard fighting knife in his hand into the deck, let [Lanlos] return to the shadow world, and then stared at his hands.

"Since the end of the recruit period, my strength has improved dramatically, and almost all the enemies I encountered after that were not challenging.

In the following days, I remained stable and continued to improve and train steadily.

Strength increased again.

This time I went out to sea to perform a mission, whether it was fighting Aaron or having a conflict with Click, I felt very relaxed.

Even though everything was in control and expected, I always felt like something was missing!

Until you appeared, I finally saw what I was missing. "

William did not interrupt Coles' words, but listened quietly from a distance.

Coles stretched out his fingers,

The power of shadow surges in your hands!

"I'm actually a layman, and I care about a lot of things. Because I'm afraid of dying and unable to protect those I want to protect, I'm always hesitant."

"On this point, perhaps Major Kahn and I have the same thing."

William did not refute this.

Because in his image, Senior Brother Kahn is such a person, always thinking a lot, which is why, at the port of Rogge Town, William was able to force Senior Brother Kahn to agree to the exchange.

"After you said that you could avoid fighting by letting me take people away, I was also moved."

"It seems like a voice is saying, I'm not strong enough, I just need to go back to training and practice again until I can beat you. Don't be afraid of a single failure!"

"But, can this really make you stronger?"

"I kept looking at myself and looking for what I was missing to become stronger."

As Coles' words came out.

William saw a new shadow appearing next to Coles.

"It turns out... what I have been lacking is the determination to risk my life!"

Coles reached into the shadow with his right hand and took out a long knife with a strange red light emitting from the blade.

This knife is scarlet.

The blade is extremely curved.

It seems like a crescent moon!

It was on the ghost ship that the "Demon Sword Red Moon" was obtained from Ranlos!

Ranked in the [Twenty-one Skills of the Great Knife]!

Coles did not use the power of shadow to isolate the demon sword, but directly touched it with his hand.

There was a cold feeling at the handle of the knife!

Weird and cold!

Coles straightened his arm and pointed the demon sword blade at William in the distance. The blade evenly divided William into two halves, very symmetrical.

"This battle,"

"I'll risk my life!"

As Coles' voice came out, the entire main ship deck fell into silence, and even the wind seemed to have forgotten to breathe!

The eyes of Dasqi and other navy soldiers were filled with shock. It was hard to imagine that the ensign would say such decisive words.

Is this the essential difference between the second lieutenant and them?

We are indeed far worse than that!

William as Coles' rival.

After hearing these words, a very happy smile appeared on his face.

"It's really rare. It's been a long time since I met an enemy who risked my life!"

"Charlotte Coles..."

"If you were not a marine, I think I would definitely invite you to join my pirate group!"

Faced with William's words of approval.

Coles didn't show much other expressions, and still held the demon knife steadily.

"I'm sorry, I don't think I'll be a pirate or anything like that."

Coles refused outright.

Even if this is just William's assumption.

And William did not show any embarrassment when he was strongly rejected.

After all, he said what if.

It's not like Coles was really invited and rejected, so there wasn't much of an embarrassment.

William also pulled out the famous sword from his waist.

This famous sword is "Jingtao"!

It is one of the "Fifty Skills of Good Knives". It has a black lacquered blade and a random edge pattern on the blade.

After re-unsheathing.

Light flashed on the blade.

A gust of breeze blew in, causing the navy coat behind Coles to flutter.

Similarly, the black cloak on William's back also blew loudly.

William held the famous sword Jingtao, his eyes fell on Coles, his domineering expression leaked out.

"Then come on!"

There was silence for a moment.

Everyone's attention is drawn.

Da da da!

The next moment, Coles moved his legs, and his thick-soled leather boots made a crisp sound on the deck.

Transmission of sound.

Always one step ahead.

When everyone heard the rapid footsteps, they also saw Coles rushing towards William like a tiger out of a cage.

William on the opposite side did not choose to sit and wait for death, and also rushed out.

However, William was wearing light-soled boots on his feet, and the sound was slightly lighter than Coles's stepping on the wooden board.

Da Da Da!

Ta Ta Ta!

The distance between the two was instantly shortened, and then the two famous swords collided.

A clear and clear sound was heard.

Then, the two retreated.

Coles stepped hard, stopped on the deck, and continued to charge.

William did the same.

However.

After several collisions, William felt that his strength was not as good as Coles.

Is the strength strong?

William relied on his superb swordsmanship to sweep towards Coles with a knife.

The speed of this knife was extremely fast.

Coles also relied on the amplified reaction power brought by the shadow fruit in the shadow, so he barely bent down and dodge.

Swish!

The huge mast next to it was implicated.

Under the sharp blade of William's famous sword "Jingtao", the mast was directly cut flat.

Then, without the support force, the mast collapsed heavily towards the deck on the side.

Coles and William avoided the direction where the mast collapsed and continued to fight with swordsmanship.

The clear sound of blade collision rang from time to time.

William stared at the demon sword Hongyue in Coles's hand and asked: "The sword in your hand is a bit weird, and the quality is extraordinary. Is it a famous sword?"

Coles avoided the opponent's straight slash and counterattacked with a diagonal slash.

"This is a demon sword!"

Hearing Coles' answer.

William's face showed a clear look, and a powerful slash pushed Coles back.

"No wonder! But the demon sword has always been an ominous thing. Use it to fight, aren't you afraid that you will be harmed by the demon sword in the end?"

Coles used "Shave" to flash behind William, without any retreat in his eyes.

"A strong swordsman will not be afraid of difficulties, not to mention that the demon sword is now under my control."

"What's the ominous thing? If you have the ability, let it come!"

Facing Coles's attack from behind.

William didn't even turn around, but directly backhanded a knife and forced Coles back.

"How arrogant!"

"But, without summoning that sword master-level shadow soldier, do you think you can defeat me?"

Colles retreated to the superstructure of the main ship and said lightly.

"How do you know if you don't try!"

William stood with a knife.

There was a serious look in his eyes.

"Then I'm ready to get serious!"

Looking at William, whose momentum was rising.

Colles also slowly raised his head. In the night sky, black clouds moved and moonlight gradually fell.

Under the clear moonlight.

The demon sword Hongyue suddenly emitted a strange red light. This special power enveloped his whole body, doubling his strength.

"In that case."

"Then I will choose to explode too!"
