"I'm the captain of the 'Whitebeard Pirates' Fifth Team, Bista - they all used to call me 'Foil'!"

Bista grinned, even in the face of "Hawkeye", the "world's number one swordsman", he did not flinch in the slightest.

"White ...... The Whitebeard Pirates? The One Piece Emperor of the New World, Edward Newgate, the 'Whitebeard' known as 'the strongest man in the world'?! ”

Hearing the words of "Flower Sword" Bista, the fishmen who had been slashed by Hawkeye's sword wind opened their mouths in surprise.

Whether it is "the world's number one swordsman" or "the strongest man in the world", these two identities are too far away from them.

But they will never forget the title "Whitebeard"!

It is precisely because of the protection of the "Whitebeard" banner that they can survive on Fish-Man Island under the siege of various forces.

Because the fish-people are born with more than ten times the strength of humans, countless fish-people have been captured by the strong men of humans and become coolies.

Because merfolk are the most beautiful race in the world, countless mermaids have been sold to human nobles and become their slaves and playthings.

If it weren't for the protection of "Whitebeard", Fish-Man Island would have become a barren land full of wars all year round.

Edward Newgate "Whitebeard" is the greatest benefactor of all the residents of Fish-Man Island!

The story of the "Whitebeard" pirates has long been a household name on Fish-Man Island.

"The Strongest Man in the World" Edward Newgate, "The Immortal" Marco, "Diamond" Joz, "Foil" Bista...... One name after another, almost like heroes, circulates everywhere on Fish-Man Island.

"Lord Bista, we obviously didn't provoke this swordsman, but he actually cut off our ship and wounded our companions, you must not forgive that guy!"

At this time, the fishmen of the Silverhook Pirates actually complained to Bista like children who saw their parents after being beaten up in school.

"You idiots, this person is the 'world's number one swordsman' Jorakol Mihawk...... Before he's angry with you, why don't you get out of here? ”

Bista had a smile on her face, her eyes fixed on Hawkeye, but she reprimanded the fishmen.

He ...... He is the world's number one swordsman?! ”

At this time, the fish people finally felt a deep fear creeping up in their hearts.

At that time, they shrank and fled from where Hawkeye was.

"The Whitebeard Pirates?"

Hawkeye's calm voice was mixed with a hint of doubt: "What? Could it be that the Whitebeard Pirates have any opinion about me? ”

"No, Lord Jorakol Mihawk! I'm here this time, and I only represent myself, and I have nothing to do with my father! ”

As he spoke, Bista had already walked to Hawkeye's vicinity and pulled out the two Western knives he was carrying behind him!

"Then you want to stand up for these little brothers of yours?"

"Mr. Mihawk, please don't get me wrong, I'm here for one purpose......"

"You want to challenge me?"

It was only then that Hawkeye finally glanced at Bista a little.

It hasn't been long since he was crowned the world's No. 1 swordsman, and he's often challenged from all over the world.

But there was never one person who could make himself as happy as Shanks, and they all died.

Compared with the current Hawkeye who seems to be "lonely and seeking defeat" in the future, his desire to win is still very strong, and he will not face it with an entertaining mentality like when he met Zoro.

Therefore, the vast majority of those who challenged Hawkeye couldn't even survive three moves under Hawkeye's hands!

Is the Whitebeard Pirates a strong man at the level of captain of the fifth team? Hopefully this guy doesn't let himself down.

"I'm not going to show mercy!" Hawkeye looked at him and pointed the black knife in his hand in the direction of Bista.

"I can't ask for it!"

"Foil" Bista grinned, and he was quite unconvinced by the so-called "world's number one swordsman" who had recently emerged.

This time, taking advantage of the opportunity to carry out the mission in the first half of the Great Voyage, he found the trace of Hawkeye, and quietly touched it out alone.

He is going to see how many catties and taels this legendary "world's number one swordsman" has!

"Huh!"

Bista shouted and rushed in the direction of Hawkeye.

In the face of this powerful opponent, Bista didn't dare to despise a single cent, he took out all his strength from the beginning!

Bista's powerful sword intent turned into a cherry blossom petal with substance as if by magic.

The cherry blossoms in the sky are fluttering and sprinkling, like a thousand cherry blossoms in full bloom falling in the wind, which is dazzling, as if you are in a sea of flowers!

But Mihawk's eyes as sharp as a falcon can see clearly, this flying sky is not those soft and fragrant cherry blossoms, but pieces of "blades", which can leave countless wounds on people's bodies like a storm of slashing in the sky!

Airplanes......

A buzzing sword roared from the blade of Black Knife Night, and Hawkeye stood proudly beneath the petals, as if the petals in the sky were not Bista slashing deaths, but truly gentle cherry blossoms drifting away.

Brush!

Hawkeye slashed out, and an invisible slash burst into the sky in an instant!

The cherry blossoms in the sky were all cut into two at the same time, as if thousands of blades had cut off each falling petal at the same time!

The realm of swords! ①

This is the highest level of attack exclusive to a swordsman that every strong person at the level of "Great Swordsman" will master!

Even in the face of countless cannonballs flying towards him in all directions at the same time, the "Great Sword Hero" only needs to swing a sword, and all the cannonballs will be cut in half at the same time!

"Damn!"

Bista cursed.

is also a "great sword master", how could he not know the realm of the "Sword Domain"?

The cherry blossoms he released in the sky are a change of the "Sword Domain", a specific way of embodiment!

This Eagle Eye can use the "Sword Domain" to cut off his Sakura Sword Intent, which already proves that his sword intent completely overwhelms himself!

You can't use ranged attacks on him anymore!

At this moment, Bista had already made up his mind.

The honor of being the captain of the fifth team of the "Whitebeard Pirates" makes him never choose to back down!

Facing the "Hawkeye" Mihawk who stood proudly in front of him and did not back down at all, Bista showed his specialty two-sword swordsmanship and rushed forward without hesitation.

Note (1) The realm of the sword: There is no such word in the original book, so this name was given in order to facilitate the description of the kind of moves of the great sword hero.
