Chapter 18 This is what people often call blood boiling.

Hiding pirates is a felony.

therefore

In order to catch the criminals, Tina broke into the palace at all costs.

But I didn't expect to fall to this.

This was almost the most embarrassing of her military career.

"Let go of me!"

Tina gritted her teeth as she looked at Maude, who had imprisoned herself.

Maude was indifferent and said lightly: "You haven't answered my question just now." ”

"Pirates can only go to Tina's warship as 'criminals', even in the Seven Martial Seas."

Tina decisively refused.

Maybe she was angry, and her attitude was very tough.

Maude spread his hands and sighed: "Then there is no way, I can only wait for you to calm down first, and then we will have a good 'discussion'." ”

"No ...... required"

"Bang!"

As soon as Tina's words came out, the shadow that restricted her freedom gave her a punch to the back of the head without warning.

Under the heavy blow, Tina's eyes rolled and she simply fainted.

The navy, whose negative buff was gradually weakening, all stared at Tina, who had been boxed miserably.

The powerful and sassy female boss that they admired extremely was so powerless in front of Maude.

"It's really straightforward......"

The Kingdom Guardian looked at Maud in surprise.

Perona looked at Tina with pity as she fainted from the ground.

It's not good to provoke anyone, but you want to provoke Maude.

Perona shook her head slightly, retracting the negative ghost that was wandering, and concentrating on the dessert on her plate.

In her opinion, even if Tina's attitude was a little softer, Maude would definitely give the stairs in order to take a ride with the wind.

You know, the man next to him doesn't know what it means to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.

As a result, Tina was not only soft, but also tougher.

Okay, right?

He was sanctioned by Maude in full view.

Compared with......

Perona looked at the dessert on the plate.

It was Maude who added it for her.

In today's days, although there is no freedom, at least there is no need to suffer any grievances.

With Tina's vivid portrayal, Perona feels that she is lucky.

When Maude knocked Tina unconscious, the atmosphere in the banquet hall became a little subtle.

And Maud didn't stop there.

He didn't stop doing anything, manipulating the shadows and knocking out the other navies as well.

This kind of operation stunned everyone present.

It's just not human.

Kobra took a deep look at Maude.

This pirate ......

Or rather,

This Seven Martial Seas gave him a special sense.

Maverick, or is it extraordinary?

Cobra sighed in his heart, and ordered the guards to send the unconscious uninvited guests in front of him to the clean point.

After the guards moved Tina and the others away, the dinner continued.

Two hours passed.

The dinner was over, and it was late at night.

At Vivi's invitation, Maud stays overnight.

In order to better entertain the Straw Hats, King Kobra did not hesitate to open the bath when the turmoil had just subsided, so that the Straw Hats could take a comfortable hot bath.

Instead of joining in the fun, Maud went for a walk in the palace courtyard.

Perona was bored, so she went out for a walk with Maude.

As for Bailey, he ate and drank a lot at night, and he would have fallen asleep in bed.

Maud and Perona walked slowly down the courtyard aisles, one after the other.

There are no clouds tonight, and the moon hangs high in the night sky.

The bright moonlight shines on the courtyard garden, accompanied by the pleasant sound of insects, but it gives people a feeling of relaxation and happiness.

Maud walked and walked, stopping suddenly to look at a stone pillar arch in front of her.

Sauron leaned his back against the stone pillar, holding the word "Harmony" in his hand.

He was wounded, and it was not suitable for him to take a bath, but he waited for Maud here.

"Fight me!"

Sauron, who had just comprehended the color of the armament, had a high fighting spirit.

Even despite the injuries on his body, he couldn't wait to fight Maude.

Mainly because he was afraid that Maud would leave with that naval team tomorrow.

In this way, I don't know when the next time we meet.

"With you now, I can make you fall to the ground with just one finger."

Maud glanced at the bandages on Zoro's body.

With this kind of injury, it is rare to be able to walk, and I don't know which nerve Sauron has pumped, and he actually wants to fight him?

You're welcome, not a finger.

Maud doesn't need to move at all, so that the shadow clone can easily solve the current Sauron.

Being so despised by Maud, Zoro was not angry at all.

He was very aware of the strength of the man in front of him.

It's suffocatingly powerful.

but

Even if he might be abused with a finger, Sauron didn't want to miss this opportunity.

"Then you might as well try it......"

Sauron's eyes were sharp, and he slowly pulled out a word of harmony.

Under the silvery moonlight, the sword body of the word of the Tao Tao revealed circles of black lines, trembling slightly like water waves, and seemed to be very unstable.

"Half-hung level."

Maud had already seen Zoro's armed color, and gave a fair comment at the right time.

But

Until now, Maud had been quite surprised.

He didn't expect Sauron to comprehend the armed color two years in advance.

Come to think of it, it should be that he taught Usopp the principles of seeing and hearing domineering and armed domineering, thus forming the current result, right?

With this influence, the comprehensive strength of the Straw Hat Pirates may soar rapidly in a short period of time and become a veritable supernova leader this year.

"Half-...... yes, half-. ”

Sauron was neither angry nor annoyed, because it was true.

Even if he didn't know enough about the armament color, Zoro could sense a serious imbalance in skill.

"But so what, I can feel it...... The subtle touch of blood rushing should be what people often call blood boiling. ”

Zoro slashed his hand, the corners of his mouth furrowed, and his eyes flashed with a grim glow.

Maude glanced at Zoro's chest and said calmly, "Your feeling is right. ”

"Hey."

Zoro thought Maud had agreed, and his fighting spirit grew stronger.

Mordhu raised his hand, pointing at Zoro's chest.

There, wisps of blood were pouring from the gaps in the bandages, but Sauron didn't notice it.

Seeing Maude's gesture of raising his hand, Zoro's eyes froze.

He thought that this battle was about to break out, so he mobilized the muscles of his whole body and took a sharp step forward.

Immediately afterward, he heard Maude's words.

"The wound is cracked like this, not to mention galloping, it is almost a fountain."

“……”

Zoro was stunned for a moment.

His attention was all on Maude, and it was only then that he finally noticed that blood was spurting from the wound on a small scale.

And it's a squirt and a stop, as if teasing his eyes.

The pain then rushed through the nerves.

At this level alone, Zoro could still withstand it.

But as the wound cracked, the strength that had been restored was gradually lost.

"Damn......"

Zoro gritted his teeth, very unwilling.

As his strength drained, he slowly sat down on the ground with his back against the stone pillar.

Maud looked at Sauron, who had come and gone, and shook his head slightly.

This guy is funny sometimes.

"Perona, go and call Chopper."

Maud turned her head to look at Perona as she let the shadow leave her body and head to her bedroom.

Perona nodded and turned to leave.

In her heart, she has already classified Zoro as a Hanhan on the same level as Luffy.

As Perona departed, Maud looked at Sauron once more.

"It really surprised me that you can learn to be armed and domineering, but don't be too presumptuous."

"In the new world, there are more people who know how to be armed than you can imagine."

"So, if you want to use me as a litmus test, you're still far away."

Maud crouched down and calmly looked at Zoro, who couldn't even hold the knife.

"But if you really want to get a taste of despair, I'll be waiting for you in the Chambord Islands."

"One, one word is a certainty!"

Sauron looked up, his eyes burning.

As long as he can get stronger, he won't care about any slighting words.

Seeing that Sauron's interest was so high, Maude's eyes suddenly became as deep as a secluded pool.

"The sword has no eyes, maybe it will kill you."

"Being killed only shows that I am nothing more than that."

"Huh."

Maud got up and looked deeply at Sauron as if he were looking at a lamb to the slaughter.

By this glance alone,

I don't know if it was because of Sauron's excessive blood loss, but he was covered with chills.

Just then, Shadow came to the courtyard with a knife.

That knife was one of the fifty workers in the back street of the council.

Maud took Huazhou from the shadow and threw it to Sauron, who was sitting on the ground.

"Huh?"

Zoro raised his hand to catch Huazhou and looked at Maude suspiciously.

"Famous Sword Huazhou."

Maud said, untying the thousand birds from her waist again.

"Famous sword Chidori."

"These two knives are for you."

"If it's you, these two knives...... Maybe I am lucky enough to be 'refined' into a black knife. ”

Before the words fell, Maud personally handed Chidori into the hands of Zoro, who was stunned on the spot.

Immediately afterward, Maude glanced at the petite figure of Chopper who was hurrying towards this side on the courtyard walkway.

"Forget it, I won't stay here tonight."

Maud suddenly changed her mind and turned her back to Sauron, who still hadn't come back to his senses.

"I'll leave later, so I can only ask you to help me speak for Usopp."

“……”

Zoro looked at Maude's tall back, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

After gifting the knife to Sauron, Maud stepped away.

Ever since getting the autumn water, Maud has snubbed Chidori.

After all, he's not a three-knife stream.

And Brooke's sword was broken before, and Maud had proposed to give Chidori to Brooke.

But Brooke was accustomed to using a rapier and did not accept Maud's offer.

Today

He also entrusted Chidori to Sauron.

It somewhat made up for Sauron's regret of missing two famous knives in Rogue Town.

"Zoro, didn't I let you recuperate!!"

Chopper's angry voice came from the other end of the courtyard walkway.

Perona saw that Maud was walking in the other direction, so she followed.

And where Maud is going, is where the navy is located.

Regardless of whether Tina agrees to let him board the ship later, he will take the lead and carry all the navy, including Tina, directly to the warship.
