Rhodes was thinking.

Karp slowly leaned over and grinned:

"Young man, your swordsmanship and thunder power are very strong, but your domineering still has a lot of shortcomings."

"Huh?"

Rod was a little puzzled by Karp's strange attitude, but still respectfully:

"Do you have any advice from Karp-senpai?"

His armed color domineering is not weak, and he can even be called the strongest of the younger generation, much more powerful than Fire Fist Ace.

But compared to the level he is standing at this time, compared to these long-famous peak figures, it is far worse.

However, the armed color is in a hurry, and the physical strength is the same, it is cultivated day by day.

Even if Rhodes had a thunder quenching body and his cultivation speed far surpassed that of others, it was impossible for him to catch up with the decades of training of these peak figures in just over a year.

"And your physical skills are terrible, or your defensive skills are terrible."

Karp didn't answer, pointing out Rod's biggest flaw.

In the battle just now, Karp found that Rhodes had been attacking almost all the time, and he had no sense of defense at all.

Although there is a reason for this, Karp is so old and spicy, seeing the subtle knowledge, it is easy to guess that Rhodes is afraid that the usual battle is also the same.

"I'm afraid you think that your attack power is strong enough to keep your opponent suppressed, or count your more powerful speed?" Karp laughed.

"Hmm."

Rod nodded slightly, he really thought so.

As long as his attack is strong enough, the enemy will be suppressed.

As long as he is fast enough, enemy attacks can't catch up with him.

"This kind of tactics is very good in the early stage, and the fierce momentum can suppress the opponent, but at the level of you and me, this is very inappropriate."

"At this level, there is almost no possibility of instant kills, and it often takes a long time to end the battle."

"In this case, if you don't know how to defend, it's easy for the enemy to seize the opportunity, and you can be wounded or even severely injured by a blow."

Speaking of this, Karp paused slightly, and finally revealed his intentions:

"There are codexes of all kinds of defensive skills in the navy, and there are opponents like me who are training against you......"

“……”

Rod had strange eyes, he didn't expect Karp, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to be scheming!

But after all, I just accepted the favor, and it was not good to refuse directly at this time, so I could only say euphemistically:

"I'm not in the Navy."

"Okay."

Karp didn't persuade him anymore when he heard this, he was just temporary, it's good if he can do it, it doesn't matter if he can't, anyway, he will retire in a few years.

At this time, the Straw Hats and Kirby and other navies had already surrounded them.

Among them, Nami ran the fastest with Chopper in her arms, and quickly came to Rhodes, asking Chopper to show Rod the injury.

Although Rod was not injured much, he couldn't get rid of Nami's kindness, so he could only rely on Chopper.

Kirby and the other navies looked at Rhodes' eyes changed, and they thought that this young man didn't know the height of the sky and dared to challenge the naval hero, but he didn't expect the two to fight to this extent!

The aftermath of the horror made the sea churn, and the wind and waves were like a tsunami.

They had no doubt that if the battle broke out on Shipwreck Island, it would definitely destroy this place completely!

After the battle, Rhodes and the others did not stay on Shipwreck Island for too long, but returned directly to their residences.

After these people left, the residents of the Seven Waters City gradually dispersed, spreading this scene like a divine war.

For a long time, this battle was the talk of the residents of the Seven Waters City, and it was talked about.

After returning to your accommodation.

Rod didn't go to take a shower or anything, just lay down on the bed and had a good night's sleep.

When he woke up the next day, he felt refreshed, the physical strength he had expended had been restored, and some minor muscle strains had already healed.

Standing in the courtyard, Rhodes looked at the black and shiny palms that looked like steel, and muttered:

"Karp is right, my domineering strength is indeed a little unable to keep up with the strength."

Maybe Karp has special weapons color skills, but Rhodes is not a navy after all, and Karp is unlikely to treat each other, and the friendship between the two has not yet reached that point.

"Pirate World...... Where is it possible to increase the domineering color of the armament? ”

Rhodes looked at the sky with his hands in his hands and thought.

Suddenly, his eyes must have thought of the Nine Snake Island, which is located in the windless zone, that country where almost all the people have awakened their domineering power, and there should be a very perfect domineering inheritance.

"Well, you can go check it out."

Rod nodded secretly.

Although the character of the One Piece Empress is too narcissistic, he who knows the original book, of course, knows why this seemingly narcissistic but actually inferior emotion comes from.

As long as this can be resolved, Hancock should accept the deal.

"Then the next thing is only the location of the Nine Snake Island, and how to solve the ...... of the hoof prints of the Celestial Dragon Man."

The location problem is easy to handle, just ask the bear.

The bear can accurately shoot Luffy to Nine Snake Island, and he must know the exact location of Nine Snake Island.

It just so happened that some time ago, Dorag informed Rhodes Bear's contact information.

After a burst of phone calls, Xiong was a little surprised that the first contact between this Dragon Slayer Sword Hero was to ask about the location of Nine Snake Island, but he still told Rhodes directly and reminded him to be careful.

The One Piece Empress is dangerous, very dangerous, with the ability to petrify people, and once hit, it can easily be fatal.

The true strength of the empress may be in the middle of the Seven Martial Seas, but the level of danger is comparable to that of the top ones.

"Yes."

Rod nodded in clarity.

After hanging up the bear's phone, Rhodes dialed Kurokas again and asked the One Piece ship doctor about the removal of the Draco man's hoof prints.

"Celestial dragon hoof prints, that harmful thing......"

Kulokas's voice came from the other end of the phone, and he pondered for a while and said, "There are still many ways. ”

"The most direct is of course direct cannon branding."

"But aren't you kid able to manipulate electrical currents to stimulate cell activity? If you are careful and grind slowly, you should be able to remove the marks relatively well without leaving a scar......"

After that, the old man explained some relevant details in detail and hung up the phone.

As a doctor who stubbornly hung on Roger's life to complete the great course, Kulokas is almost the number one doctor in the world, and it is really not difficult for him to get rid of the hoof prints of the Draconians.

Everything.

After sorting it out a little, Rhodes said goodbye to Nami and the others, and opened the door to Nine Snake Island.

Meanwhile.

Karp is on the phone with Sengoku.

Sengoku was still furious about the fact that Straw Hat Luffy turned out to be Karp's grandson, and he sprayed Karp's blood.

The son of a naval hero, who became the leader of the revolutionary army, and his grandson also became a supernova-level pirate, dare you raise a family of criminals!

Sengoku almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, but fortunately he didn't know that Fire Fist Ace was Karp's righteous grandson.

"Wait...... Are you saying that the Dragon Slayer already has the strength to rival the Admiral? ”

"Ah, almost."

Karp still smiled heartlessly,

"At least it's the strength of the general candidate."

Hearing this, the Warring States couldn't help but show a little surprise, what is a general candidate?

Take Peach Rabbit as an example, he can almost deter a sea thief like Doflamingo with his own strength, and if he really fights, he has at least a seventy percent chance of winning!

But this strength has improved too quickly!

In December last year, the big duel between Rhodes and the leader Green Pepper was very hard!

Unexpectedly, he is almost a general candidate now.

Is that within this year, you will be able to really fight against the admiral?!

Even with the calmness of the marshal of the Warring States period, they all gasped.
