"Silent Step!"
Kro kicked his feet on the ground several times and then disappeared.
Tashigi felt a chill rush to her back and instinctively turned to block the knife.
when!
The five-fingered claws rested on Tashigi's sword, sparking a burst of sparks.
"A famous sword..."
Kuro looked at the knife in Tashigi's hand with some envy.
The famous sword "Shigure" belongs to the category of "fast swords".
【Quick Blade】is not among the eighty-three most precious swords of the Grand Line, but it is still considered a 【famous sword】.
However, Kuro wasn't interested. He either didn't want it at all, or he wanted one of the eighty-three weapons.
Otherwise, Luffy wouldn't have even arrived in Loguetown yet. The weapon shop there has the Sandai Kitetsu and Yubashiri, but both swords are only considered "famous swords," so Clow isn't interested.
While it's true that a famous sword, if used by a skilled swordsman for a long time, will eventually be promoted to one of the eighty-three, why bother going through all that trouble when you already have a ready-made one like Clow Reed?
Isn't it better to get something for free?
"That kind of move..."
Smoker's focus was on Kro, and he didn't think Kro was that strong when he first saw him.
He had no goodwill towards the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and he didn't believe Hawkeye's words; he only believed what he saw with his own eyes.
The impression I got from Kro was that he was hiding his strength, but he wasn't that strong.
But this move surprised him a little.
“It’s like ‘shaving,’ which is a bit of a problem for Tashigi.”
Smoker's heart sank, but he was also somewhat doubtful: "Was this person really forced to join a pirate crew?"
"Isn't it enough that he has a heart that yearns for justice?"
Kuro chuckled and said, "Worried your subordinates will lose? No problem, after all, Kuro is the strongest among us marines!"
“No, if it were only this bad, Tashigi would win,” Smoker said, shaking his head.
Tashigi barely managed to block Kro's attack, took a step back, and leaned her upper body forward, slicing her blade upwards along Kro's claws, aiming straight for his throat.
The opponent is a man acknowledged by the world's greatest swordsman, so there shouldn't be any problem if I go all out!
The cold blade light came swiftly, and Kuro's pupils contracted. He instinctively crouched down, but Tashigi twisted her wrist, turning the slash into a cleave, and brought it down heavily.
Bang!
Kro's body crashed heavily to the ground some distance away. He then rolled over and got up in a disheveled state.
His meticulously styled hair was now somewhat disheveled, and a new wound appeared on his cheek.
If he hadn't dodged quickly, that slash would have killed him.
I almost...died.
"I'm furious, Navy!"
Kuro's pupils almost turned vertical, and his voice was as cold as ice, sending a chill down the spines of the watching marines.
"Are you serious, Mr. Kro? Let me see your swordsmanship!"
Daski was even more excited; she felt that Mr. Clooney would take it seriously.
Clooney's hands hung limply at his sides, as if he were powerless, and he swayed like a pendulum.
A murderous aura permeated the air.
"spoon!"
His figure vanished.
The murderous aura spread completely.
laugh!
Five deep scratches were left on a naval building.
As Dashi was still waiting, she saw several cracks appear in the surrounding buildings, and then five cracks suddenly appeared in the ground in front of her, heading straight towards her.
"Tashigi, bow your head!"
"Yes, Colonel Smoker!"
Subconsciously, Tashigi lowered her head.
A cold glint flashed across Tashigi's head, and a strand of hair fell out and was shredded to pieces.
when!
The steel jitte clashed with the claw blades, revealing Kro's figure.
"you..."
Kro looked in astonishment at the claw blades swirling in a cloud of smoke, above which was Smoker's upper body.
Bang!
Smoker punched Crowe, then grabbed his head and slammed it to the ground. "You're not just a coincidence, you're 'Hundred Schemes' Crowe! I didn't expect you to still be alive. You dare to infiltrate the Navy, you've got some nerve!"
“Ku...Mr. Kuro,” Kuro struggled to speak.
"You still dare to call yourself Kuro? That idiot was fooled by you."
Smoker said coldly, "After all, you have the title of 'Hundred Plans,' which I didn't expect at first. However, your strength is not worthy of Hawkeye's praise. Hmph, I don't know where this rumor came from."
"Hey, you should let go."
Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind.
A strong gust of wind blew in between.
Lida transformed into her teenage form and delivered a horizontal kick, but her leg passed right through Smoker's body.
"Natural system?"
Lida looked surprised.
"Ability user?"
Smoker thrust out his ten hands straight out, but Lida dodged to the side and grabbed them with one hand. By sheer coincidence, however, she caught the very tip of the ten hands.
"Can't muster any strength, is it... Seastone?"
Lida almost knelt down.
"Another one, turns out they're accomplices."
Smoker extended his ten hands, smoke billowing around him as he gradually transformed into his elemental form, and coldly snorted, "Perfect timing to grab you, Tashigi!"
"yes!"
Tashigi regained her senses, turned her blade, and slashed at Lida.
call!
when!
A golden slash struck Tashigi's sword with perfect accuracy. The immense force caused the sword to slip from her hand instantly. Shigure tumbled through the air a few times before firmly embedding itself in the ground.
"Flying Slash?!" Tashigi exclaimed in surprise.
"That's enough, give me some face."
Kuro appeared beside Smoker without him noticing, grabbed his shoulder, and deliberately said loudly, "That's enough of testing our strength. Let's go find a place to have a drink, you two."
