Chapter 255: "Duel for Love"

The appearance of Sauron undoubtedly made the atmosphere of this banquet weird:

was originally just a simple company annual meeting, but now it has become the filming site of a bitter drama.

Seeing the respective performances of Zoro and Dusty, the onlookers represented by the workers seemed to have made up such a bloody plot in their brains:

The country guy went to work in a large company in the city, but found that his childhood sweetheart, who had been absent for a long time, had already made a lot of money in the city, and this big money happened to be the boss of this big company.

I just don't know...

Does this Miss Dusty really not know the green algae head, or dislike her ex and pretend not to know, or has amnesia, terminal illness, and unspeakable hidden knowledge of her brother and sister...

Thinking of these exciting and interesting plot developments, the eyes of the crowd immediately became hot.

Dusty felt this strange gaze, and her cheeks couldn't help but become a little red:

"This gentleman!"

Dusty pursed her lips in some shame, and reiterated to Sauron earnestly in a voice that was secretly angry:

"I really don't know you!"

Zoro was silent, but his overly excited eyes were already clear:

The woman in front of her was indeed not Guina.

When Sauron calmed down, he quickly noticed the difference:

Guina has a strong nature, and since she was a child, she has been determined to surpass men as a woman, and she behaves like a tomboy in words and deeds;

And the similar-looking Dusty in front of him behaved too softly and weakly, like a small harmless white rabbit.

"I'm sorry."

"It's true that I recognized the wrong person."

Zoro apologized in an indifferent tone, but there was a loneliness in his eyes that could not be concealed:

His Guina, after all, is gone.

Zoro quietly clenched the "Harmony Text" left by Guina on his waist, and hid the faint sadness in his heart.

As a swordsman, what he has to do is to keep moving forward with the dreams of his old friends, rather than dwelling on the past.

After calming down, Sauron prepared to forget about the episode and focus on challenging Galen.

"Wait!"

But before Sauron could say anything, a swift figure leaped out of the crowd and stepped out in front of him.

"Ring eyebrows?"

Zoro was slightly stunned, and he didn't know why this yellow hair, who didn't deal with him, ran out now.

"Green algae head!"

Sanji clenched his fists, and his eyebrows were deeply frowned upon:

"What a disappointment!"

"Just because it was Galen who took your lover, don't you even have the courage to ask Miss Dusty?"

"A man like you is really unpleasant!"

"Uh... What the? ”

Zoro was a little dazed, and Dusty's cheeks, which had just cooled down, were once again overloaded.

"Galen!"

Sanji turned to glared at Galen, and a dazzling fire burst out of his eyes:

"It is really against the way of knighthood to win people's love."

"Even if I can't beat you, I'm going to get justice for this green algae head and Miss Dusty who was deceived by you!"

As soon as these words came out, the scene was quiet.

The interest of the onlookers was aroused to the extreme, the audience in the front row consciously sat down, and the audience in the back row stood high, just quietly waiting for a good show.

Not only was the audience shocked, but even Galen began to panic:

"Nami!"

"Don't listen to this yellow-haired nonsense, I really don't..."

Galen was still wondering how Zoro and Sanji could get together in advance, and finally reacted when they saw that the momentum was wrong.

Looking at Nami, who seemed to have changed her face beside her, he quickly explained:

"Didn't I just give Dusty a couple of knives? The knives were all snatched..."

"Nami, you know too: I've only met her a few times in total, how can I mean that?"

"Humph!"

Nami just turned her head away in anger, after all, Galen did have a bad record in this regard, and he was not trustworthy at all.

"Okay!"

Galen was depressed for a while, and couldn't help but glared angrily at Sanji:

"Yellow-haired boy, you are actually spreading rumors here and making trouble, and you want to make my family restless?"

"Then don't blame my men for being ruthless!"

Sanji snuffed out the unfinished cigarette in his hand, and there was no fear in his eyes.

He stepped forward heavily, with a fearless spirit of dedication to chivalry.

"Enough!"

"Circle your eyebrows, get out of the way!"

Seeing that the battle was about to start, Zoro yelled impatiently:

"I'm not here for such a boring thing!"

He slowly pulled out the blade at his waist, and aimed the sharp blade at Galen in front of him:

"A Dao Sword Hero, Galen!"

"I, Roronoa Zoro, challenge you as a swordsman!"

Zoro's voice was full of determination.

As soon as this challenge was written, the atmosphere in the field was instantly pushed to another climax;

The audience couldn't take their eyes off it, and Sanji was even more touched by Zoro's courage:

"Good!"

"Green algae head, I made this friend of yours!"

Sanji patted Zoro on the shoulder, and cheered him on with a serious face:

"Come on, get that Miss Dusty back from Galen!"

β€œ......”

Zoro's face was as gloomy as ink, and he almost couldn't help but give Sanji two stabs before the challenge:

"Shut up!"

"It's just a duel between swordsmen!"

He only has the dream of becoming the world's number one swordsman in his eyes, and naturally he is just here for the cultivation of swordsmanship.

However, with all the foreshadowing of the previous plot, Sauron challenged Galen at this time...

No matter how you look at it, it looks like an infatuated man who draws a knife for love.

The audience waited with bated breath for what was to come, while some tabloid reporters were already compiling an eloquent essay with complex relationships and twists and turns in their hearts with emotionally charged strokes.

And after Dusty inexplicably became the target of the two men's scramble, his brain crashed instantly.

The flush on her face burned from her cheeks to the roots of her ears, her skin was so hot that it seemed to be fogging, and her eyes became confused as she looked at Galen and Zoro.

"A swordsman's challenge?"

Of all the people present, only Galen, who was familiar with Zoro's character, understood the original meaning of this challenge:

It seems that Zoro is treating him as a character similar to Hawkeye, who wants to see the higher peaks of kendo through duels.

"It's really interesting."

Galen did have some interest in this opportunity to play a worldly master.

He looked directly at Sauron with a slightly oppressive gaze, and whispered:

"Challenge me? Good! ”

Zoro felt the oppression, and his eyes suddenly became much sharper.

Dusty, on the other hand, blushed, his gaze wandered between Galen and Zoro, not knowing who to look at, but whispered:

"Youβ€”Don't you do it for me..."

"Dusty!"

Galen suddenly called out Dusty's name softly.

"Huh?!"

Hearing the "male protagonist" of the story calling out to himself, Dusty shuddered like a frightened rabbit.

But Galen's gaze was still on Zoro, who had become serious, and he said to Dusty without looking back:

"Take out all the knives I gave you and show him."

"Yes..."

Dusty was a little confused, but he pulled out all the famous knives he had on his waist and stood them on the ground.

Although there were only four of them, the cold light that overflowed from the sword body made people feel the coldness of the sword mountain and the sea of swords in an instant.

Zoro's pupils shrank, and his breath froze:

He loves swords, and naturally knows that the four swords in front of him are all famous swords.

Galen put on the posture of a worldly master, and began to introduce his loot to Sauron one by one in an indifferent tone:

"Sakura Ten, Dead Wood, the previous owner is the Golden Lion Shiji."

"Qiushui, ranked among the twenty-first workers of the Great Quick Knife, and the previous master is the Hades King Leili."

"Huazhou, ranked as a good fast knife fifty workers, the previous owner is a killer."

"He's just a nobody on the Great Passage, but..."

Galen gave Sauron a cold look:

"It's ten times stronger than you are now."

As these words came out of Galen's mouth one by one, the atmosphere at the scene began to become tense and solidified, and a faint sense of slaughter like cold winter filled the air.

"And among these adversaries..."

"The strong, but the sword is left; And the weak are left behind. ”

Galen smiled indifferently, and the terrifying murderous aura cultivated by killing countless pirates was unreservedly released:

"So, Roronoa Zoro..."

"Are you sure you want to challenge me again?"

In the face of the surging killing intent that swept in, Sauron, who had just debuted, instinctively felt a chill in his heart.

But soon, that unwavering heart of seeking the Tao stirred up the blood in his whole body, freeing him from the human instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm.

Sauron didn't answer, just silently took the turban out of his pocket and tied it around his head.

Then, he took a third knife into his mouth.

Eventually, his body tensed and his legs flexed slightly, opening up a stance that was ready to go.

The choice speaks for itself.

"Ugh..."

Galen shook his head, but his eyes were full of disdain and mockery: "It's so ambitious! ”

It's really ambitious.

Today's Zoro is just a swordsman who has just debuted, and at most he is only at the level of invincible opponents in the whole village in his hometown...

This doesn't even count the village master Koshiro.

With this level of strength, a swordsman who challenges the top of the world is undoubtedly self-defeating.

If it weren't for Hawkeye, a worldly master who was willing to support, Zoro in the original book might have died in the East China Sea long ago.

"So..."

Galen smiled lightly, and then said to Sauron with a cold eye:

"I'll let you see the gap between you and this world!"

With that, Galen wanted to enter the digital mode and educate Sauron with the great sword.

But when he thought about it, it was wrong:

Using this big sword to deal with the current Sauron is too bullying.

And the little fruit knife that Hawkeye used to train young people, with its own aura of mockery... It's really a bit inauthentic.

"Wait... I'll go get a suitable knife. ”

Galen thought for a moment, then turned to leave.

A moment later, Galen came out of the kitchen, and he had a cold-lit kitchen knife in his hand.
