"Mr. Karp didn't come, I'm leading a ship myself now." Ming answered Luffy's question.

Hearing Ming's answer, Luffy's mood suddenly dropped a lot.

Although Karp always brainwashed him when he came, and even often gave him a head like this, Karp was his grandfather after all.

Seeing that Karp didn't come, Ace said to Luffy: "Luffy, let's go back, and when Cap comes next time, we must defeat him." ”

When Luffy heard this, he could only put away his low mood, and then nodded towards Ace.

Turning around, he prepared to return to the forest with Ace for training.

Listening to Ace's bold words, Ming couldn't help but laugh.

Ace heard Ming's laughter, and he looked at Ming Dao with a somewhat unkind face: "What are you laughing at?" ”

"Nothing. I just think that you can't even win against me now, so how can you defeat Mr. Karp. Ming replied with a smile.

"Who said we couldn't win you!" Ace, who was aroused by the pride in his heart, said coldly.

"Then come with me, and let me see how you can overcome me." Ming said lightly to Ace.

With that, Ming turned around and walked towards the forest.

Ace looked at Ming's back, and he clenched his fists.

After more than a year of training, his own strength has improved by leaps and bounds, so he has long stopped taking Ming in his eyes.

Who knows that since Ming looks down on them like this, since this is the case, then he will count the new hatred and old hatred together, and he wants to let Ming know that the person who was easily defeated by him back then can now easily defeat him.

Ace said to Luffy, "Let's go, Luffy!" We're going to knock this guy down. ”

Luffy and Ming still have a good relationship, but seeing Ace's angry appearance, he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only quietly follow Ace.

It wasn't long before Ming came to a clearing in the forest.

He stopped, turned around, and said to Ace and Luffy not far behind him: "It's right here, you two just make a move, let me see how much progress you have made over the past year." ”

Feeling Ming's strong man's tone pointing at the weak, Ace's eyes were cold, and he rushed directly towards Ming.

Luffy followed closely behind, his hands clasped together at the same time, ready to use his exclusive skill, Rubber Fist.

Looking at the movements of these two people, Ming stood motionless. Doesn't seem to care about Ace and Luffy's behavior.

Such an attitude made Ace's heart burst into flames, and he jumped up less than two meters away from Ming, raised his right fist, ready to hit Ming.

Luffy punched both fists at the same time, and his hands lengthened at the same time.

In the face of the attack of the two, Ming still didn't make any moves, but the calm look on his face made Ace and Luffy feel like they were facing Cap.

In the eyes of others, his state at this time may be quite calm, but in the eyes of Ace, it is quite flat.

"Drink!"

Ace let out a loud shout, and his right fist was struck, aiming straight at the head.

Luffy's fists hit Akira in the chest, and the two attacks seemed to make Akira unable to defend himself.

But just when Luffy's fists were about to hit Ming, Ming's body twisted, just between the two punches, dodging Luffy's attack.

Ace was overjoyed when he saw Ming's movements, and his fist was towards Ming's head, and he unswervingly continued to approach.

In his opinion, the current Ming is between Luffy's two hands, and Ming's head is sideways, so he can't see the situation on his side, so he can't dodge his fists at all.

But when Ace's fist was about to fall on Ming's head, a hand suddenly blocked Ace's fist and grabbed Ace's right fist.

Ming said lightly: "Ace, this can't defeat me." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ace felt a terrifying force coming from his right fist, and his whole body was pulled down from the air by this force.

Bang!

Ace's body made intimate contact with the ground, and Ace felt that the bones in his body were about to fall apart.

After Ming threw Ace to the ground, his movements did not stop, and after letting go of Ace's right hand, his hands grabbed Luffy's hands and pulled Luffy over.

When Luffy saw this, he could only hit Ming with his forehead.

At this time, Ming released his right hand, and then clenched it into a fist, and the armed domineering color wrapped around it, punching Luffy in the face.

When Luffy saw Ming's behavior, he was not afraid at all, he didn't know that he was domineering, he only knew that he was a rubber man and was not afraid of physical attacks.

And when Ming's fist landed on his face, Luffy felt a sharp pain coming from his face, and his whole body was blinded.

He couldn't figure out why why Ming's fist was the same as Karp's, and it could make him feel pain.

Knocking Luffy away, Ming put away his hand, and he said to Ace who was lying on the ground: "How is it, Ace, are you still convinced?" ”

Hearing Ming's inquiry, Ace gritted his teeth and stood up on his own, he shouted angrily: "I don't accept it!" ”

For more than a year, he has been working hard to train himself every day, in order to surpass Ming and Karp, but now the reality tells him that after his efforts, he still can't defeat Ming, and he can't even let Ming use the power of the elves.

Ace swung his right fist to Ming, and Ming, who had already seen through this punch, stretched out his left hand and easily grabbed Ace's fist,

Feeling Ace's depressed mood, he said lightly: "Ace, although you can make progress here, is your progress as fast as my constant fighting at sea?" When you embark on the path of the strong man on the sea, your growth rate will be very fast, and you will be able to reach my level at that time, so don't be discouraged, you are just trapped in the small river, not in the sea. ”

After Ace heard Ming's words, his heart suddenly fluctuated slightly, and he raised his head to Ming and asked, "Is what you said true?" ”

"What do you say?" Ming looked at him and asked rhetorically.

Ace couldn't tell if what Ming said was true at this time, but he was a proud man at heart.

Mingdu encouraged him like this, he naturally couldn't really sink, he would continue to work hard.

One year can't surpass Ming, then two years.

If you can't surpass Ming in two years, then three or four years.

He believed that with his talent, he would definitely be able to reach Ming's current strength level, or even surpass Ming.

Finding that Ace's mentality has recovered, Ming can finally rest assured.

He let go of Ace's hand, looked at Luffy who was covering his face, and asked with a chuckle, "Luffy, why are you still covering your face?" ”

"I wasn't beaten by you yet." Luffy pouted, "How can your fist hurt me like Grandpa's." ”

"This kind of thing is not unusual, and when you go to sea in the future, you will encounter more magical things." Ming chuckled.

"Alright, now I'm going to complete the task that Mr. Karp has given me." Ming said suddenly.

Ace and Luffy were puzzled when they heard Akira say this, but they had a feeling in their hearts that told them that what happened next for Akira was not a good thing.
