Closer, closer.

With Xia Nuo's current strength, every step of Brodel was almost invisible in his eyes, and the moment Brodel jumped up in front of him, and the sword slashed from top to bottom, he finally moved.

"Juhe, Slashing Steel."

With a slight flick of his wrist, Toya Lake instantly drew his sword out of its sheath, and in the cold cold light that suddenly lit up in the dark night, the heavy waves of qi accumulated around the blade rolled upside down, colliding with the broadsword from the opposite side!

Rumble!

The waves of air instantly dispersed towards the surroundings, and the sound of sonic booms was endless, and the huge impact contained in it made the ground under the feet of the two of them suddenly open several cracks, and continued to expand and spread.

"Yes...... Damn ......"

Brodel's face was flushed red at the moment, his bloodshot eyes were full of anger, and even his teeth were oozing blood because he had bitten so tightly that he couldn't stop oozing blood.

Only a few seconds had passed since the two swords intersected, but the situation was already clear.

He couldn't resist the abundant pressure coming from the side of Lake Toya, and while his arms were numb, the broadsword in his hand had been pushed back by twenty or thirty centimeters under this huge power gap, almost touching his own throat.

"How can this be......" Looking at Xiano, who was still calm and obviously had some energy left, Brodell felt it for the first time...... What is called true despair.

He was not reconciled!

Obviously, this sword has used up all his remaining strength, and even the sword intent that he has just comprehended has never been applied so appropriately as it is today, this sword with the intent of steel, even if it is a several-storey attic, can be split in two sections, why can't he help this black-haired imp in front of him?

Whether it's power, or speed, the gap is too big...... Even his own steel-like sword intent, under the baptism of the opponent's sword intent like a storm and waves, could only support it for half a second before it completely dissipated.

Brodell knew that even if he had a head-on fight with Pilson, he would not have lost so badly, so there was only one reason to fall into this situation now!

This guy named Xia Nuo is a real swordsman......

"Stupid brother, there will be no brother to protect you in the future, don't be so willful......"

This was the last thought that flashed through Brodel's mind, because at the same time as this thought just arises, he was completely defeated because he couldn't withstand the sword aura of the other party's sword.

The blade of the broadsword in his hand fell, his arms were broken at the root, and in the gushing blood, Brodel's vitality was also passing at a speed that could be felt......

Over the past 30 years, the various experiences have flown by like a marquee, from the grief of being attacked by bandits and killing their parents, to the ecstasy of discovering Brock who had survived because he was hiding in a cave, from the anxiety and panic when he was unable to make ends meet, to the high spirits when he finally set sail and embarked on the road of pirates......

The bounty was mentioned again and again, and his swordsmanship rose again and again, and his state of mind also quietly changed.

I thought that I would be the protagonist, I would become the number one swordsman, I would find the onepiece treasure, and I would become the next generation of One Piece in this world......

But it wasn't until today, when he was about to become a ghost under the sword, that he realized that he was no different from the helpless child who was crying in the face of dead bodies everywhere thirty years ago, weakness is original sin, and he was still powerless to change everything in this disgusting world.

Laughing miserably, he fell backwards, and when he touched the blade of the sword and made a soft "clanging" sound, his heart finally stopped beating completely.

【You have gained 180 XP】

【Your Hero Level has been increased to Level 7】

…………

This was the text that came to Xano's mind at the moment of Broder's death, and as for the prompt sound, it had already been turned off by him for annoyance.

"Is it finally an upgrade......

The hero level, which was close to the threshold point after the previous battle with the Gray Pirates, was finally broken through at this moment, and Xia Nuo glanced at the attribute panel, after this upgrade, his two basic attributes have been slightly improved, his strength has increased by 9 points, breaking through the 90 mark, and his agility has also increased from 101 to 106.

On top of that, he was unsurprisingly rewarded with a random rotation, even though the things that had come out of the Valoran Bronze Gift were pretty shabby...... But in any case, there is no way to talk about it.

The night was still dark, and Luoan's gaze fell on Brodel's corpse, and a hint of groan appeared in his gaze.

After a moment's thought, he bent down to pick up the badly broken broadsword on the ground and placed it lightly across Brodel's chest.

For swordsmen, the saber is a second life, and this move of Xia Nuo is to show respect for this peer who has just stepped into the realm of swordsman.

Speaking of which, when he first learned the news that Rose was avenged by General En in the small garden, he was extremely disgusted with the Brodel brothers, but after learning more and more news, Xia no probably figured out that Brodel's reputation was basically ruined by the younger brother who did not make it, and he was actually quite a heroic swordsman, but because of excessive doting, he was miserable by his own brother this time, and to some extent, he was in a desperate situation.

What really made him win Xia Nuo's respect was actually the duel between the swordsmen just now, although because Xia Nuo was far from being comparable to the past, the difference in strength between the two was too large, and the situation fell into one side, but from beginning to end, Brodel showed the dignity of a swordsman, did not retreat in the face of a strong enemy, did not flinch, and fought to the last moment.

For the swordsman, the scar on his back is a sign of shame, and all of Brodel's scars are in front of him.

"This guy ......"

With a slight sigh, Xia Nuo put Lake Toya back into the sheath, and even if he happened to achieve the upgrade achievement, there was not much joy in his eyes about victory.

After all...... In the end, it was the Brock guy who had escaped that made him murderous, and Brodel was just a top tank. For Xia Nuo, it is impossible to apologize for the dead, enemies are enemies after all, not to mention swordsman duels, it is normal to either live or die, but how happy it is...... Absolutely not.

It's like the anger that has already exploded, still accumulated in my heart, and I haven't completely vented it.

"Sure enough, it's more pleasant to slaughter some real scum......"

In the darkness of the night, Xia Nuo suddenly looked up and looked at the top of the attic with a flash of his eyes.

Plzen and his gang were no longer there, but that didn't mean they had fled, in fact, before the battle between him and Brodell was over, those guys had already jumped down from above, leading the ordinary men who had just arrived, and covered the street where the Wind Pirates were located.
