Chapter 37: The Swordsman's Instinct
Just as Ace and Ryoma were confronting each other, an almost transparent figure quietly hid in the dark to observe the two, and the person who came was the Phantom Princess Perona, because she was a ghost fruit ability, so Perona could go out of her body, and she was not a ghost in the world, so she would naturally not be easily noticed.
Except, of course, Ace, who has already had his first glimpse of the realm of listening to the sound of all things······
"It's not okay to be distracted during battle!" Seeing the corner of the opponent's eyes jump, Ryoma said impatiently.
"That's what I said······" Although Perona is watching from the sidelines, as soon as she makes a move, she will be discovered. After all, the other party really didn't pose any threat to Ace's gang except for that difficult ability. Thinking of this, Ace no longer kept his hand, and focused on the big swordsman in front of him.
"That's exciting······ Yo ho ho ho ho! Feeling the momentum of Ace's body rising, Ryoma grinned his faintly visible lips and smiled softly.
In an instant, the two moved at the same time, and with the powerful impact of high-speed movement, they attacked each other hard. With a "bell", the two divine weapons intersected, and the incomparable sword qi exploded in an instant, and the resulting wind pressure suddenly spread, and the surrounding houses made unbearable sounds in this powerful air flow, and cracks appeared on the walls, beginning to end their missions and collapse. After this powerful sword aura disappeared, the figures of Ace and Ryoma appeared on the roof of a mansion, both of them with excited smiles on their faces, and the weapons in their hands clashed together again.
It was only after one hand-to-hand exchange that Ryoma was already excitedly shouting, "Yo ho ho ho ho ······ It's so enjoyable! At the same time as he spoke, Ryoma had already held the narrow autumn water with one hand mixed with a huge sword qi and stabbed towards Ace, the moment the weapons intersected, the bright sparks appeared, and the two swords turned at the same time to rub each other's sword bodies and slashed towards each other's chests at an incomparable speed, and then the two were like each other in the mirror, Ryoma's feet slid slightly, and he turned sideways, and the long sword in his hand swept, and the two figures were separated at once, standing on both sides.
"It's amazing······" Looking at the torn shirt on his chest, Ace sighed with heartfelt emotion, on the other hand, Ryoma was stunned and didn't suffer any injuries. It is worthy of the legendary great swordsman who slashed the flying dragon, even if the other party completely relied on his instinct to swing the sword in his life, although he had the shadow support of Brooke, but the zombie standing in front of Ace now was definitely not as good as Ryoma, who was at the peak of his life!
You must know that Ryoma, like the future "Warcraft" Zoro, takes a fierce path of opening and closing, and with a black knife like Shangqiushui, it is even more powerful; On the other hand, Brooke's kendo is light and nimble, and Ryoma's enviable strong arm strength is useless!
Let a heavy "slash" swordsman switch to "stab"?
It's really hard to imagine how strong this resounding dragon slayer swordsman was during his lifetime!
"Yo ho ho ho ho ······ Looks like I'm a bit better! "Ryoma is very excited today, although the corpse was taken by Moria to be used as a zombie, he lost his memories of life, and now the only thing that belongs to him is the instinct of a swordsman. But even though he became a member of the zombie army, all Ryoma wanted was to fight against the powerful swordsman, and he finally ran into Brooke, but the other party was always afraid of the explosion that got in the way. For this reason, Ryoma let Brooke go again and again, just so that he could really fight against himself once. And Ace's arrival made him feel that it was really worth the wait for so many years!
"But ······" Ryoma's words changed, and the whole person became a little depressed, "You're really bad······ A swordsman with superhuman strength can see the depth of his opponent at a glance, and that's all your kendo? Don't you know that the sword in your hand is crying? ”
Weep?
Ace is a little overwhelmed, Hatsune doesn't seem to be like this, right? Although he did keep a hand······
"Give it your all!" As soon as the words fell, Ryoma's figure had already appeared two meters in front of Ace, "If you don't stab your opponent, the sword in your hand will also feel sad!" The existence of the famous sword is for fighting, for fighting! ”
"Really?" As soon as the black light passed in front of Ace's eyes, Qiushui's blade had already pointed directly at the Juyi Character Zezong in his hand, which was Ryoma's sword technique inherited from Brooke-Requiem, with the stabbing attack of the brewing at an extremely fast speed, the condensed penetrating force broke through the enemy's defense and quickly defeated the enemy's moves, and most importantly, the object of this attack was the love knife in Ace's hand.
"Hatsune, you're really······ Eager to fight? Looking at the constantly beating Ju Yiwen Zezong in his hand, a trace of firmness flashed in Ace's eyes.
"Golden Lion Secret Technique: Imperial Heavenly Scroll!"
Even Ace's movements were not seen clearly, and the autumn water in Ryoma's hand, which was originally condensed with an earth-shattering blow, was instantly picked up, followed by countless sharp and incomparable wind blade sword qi.
"Oh?" First his own killing blow was blocked, and then there was a wave of slashing qi in the sky, when Ryoma came back to his senses, he had been swept into the sky by the dense sword qi that formed a rising tornado, and in the rising wave of qi, Ryoma clearly felt that his whole body was torn apart by this hurricane-like sword qi.
Ryoma, who fell heavily from mid-air, had already recovered the moment he landed, after all, he had the body of a zombie, and even if his body was cut into several pieces, he could be glued together again through the shadow.
"Good move······ Even if he is as strong as Ryoma, he admires Ace's blow to turn the fighter around.
"Sure enough, this is your true strength!"
As Ryoma guessed, Ace didn't just rely on instinct to swing his sword, you must know that his teacher was a golden lion! Why was the Golden Lion able to compete with One Piece twenty years ago? It's not the ability of the fluttering fruit, but the double knife flow of the golden lion! In order to prevent Roger and the golden lion who had no successor, he naturally passed on his swordsmanship to Ace who regretted his life due to his mutilated legs.
This is also the reason why Ace is determined to win Qiushui······
"I'm sorry, I still have a little bit of a swordsman's instinct." Hearing Ryoma say this, Ace smiled indifferently, and a powerful domineering aura immediately burst out from his body, and the gravel on the soles of his feet had been shattered by this sudden majestic wave of qi.
If he couldn't defeat Ryoma with his own hands, Ace wouldn't be qualified to wield Qiushui at all. Therefore, he intended to fight as a "swordsman" from the beginning.
"Yo ho ho ho ho ······ That's it, Barrel Dance: Stab! "Ryoma has no words, and at this time, only fighting with all his strength is the respect for his opponent.
"In order not to make my partner who has been with me cry!" I don't know if I'm talking about people or swords, Ace made a mistake, and his whole body suddenly rushed forward, which was comparable to grazing Ryoma's blade, and Ace, with the help of momentum, knocked Ryoma's body to the side.
"Yo ho ho ho ho ······ I'm so happy, today is really the happiest day I've ever had since I became a zombie! Feeling the other party's fierce battle intent like flames, Ryoma even shouted excitedly, reinserting the autumn water in his clenched hand into the scabbard, and Ryoma rushed towards Ace like an arrow off the string.
"Bet on our dignity as swordsmen! Nose Song Sanding······ Arrow Tail Slash! ”
"That's ······" Brooke, who was standing in the distance, was stunned, once upon a time, in order to protect his companions, he became stronger again and again, and studied hard again and again, the ultimate meaning of killing with one blow!
Is it coming? The legendary dragon slayer, Ryoma's strongest blow······
Ace, who took in all the opponent's movements, showed a light smile at the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath, and concentrated the strength of his whole body on the hands that were holding Ju Yiwen Zezong, and his eyes were quietly closed.
"There is no best move in the world, only the best move for you······ Uncle Siqi, I've been trying, I've been trying to surpass you, and now, let you see my power! ”
The eyes that opened suddenly burst into infinite battle intent, Ace's tense body disappeared in an instant, and the next moment, the figure had appeared not far in front of Ryoma.
"Red Lotus... Burst Slash! ”
"Ah!!h
Ace and Ryoma shouted at the same time and rushed towards each other, and the moment the two approached, the two of them slashed out a sword almost at the same time, a sword with all their might. The shock wave, which was more powerful than any previous one, immediately struck all around, as if a nuclear bomb exploded, and there were no buildings within a hundred meters of the two of them, directly turning into ruins, and the dust that was originally in the air had been dispersed by a stream of air in an instant, and then more dust was lifted, hiding the two in the middle.
"Captain!"
"Ace ······"
Several frightened cries rang out at the same time, the battle between the two of them was too dangerous, and a battle of this magnitude was simply not something they could handle.
"Fast ······" Yuna immediately made a decision and began to command everyone to save people, "Remove all the nearby rocks and wooden blocks, Ace may be crushed underneath!" ”
"Please... Wait! Brooke suddenly screamed in surprise, "My... My shadow is back! Hearing Brooke's excited voice, everyone looked at his feet, and sure enough, Brooke's shadow returned from Ryoma.
"Wait······ Brooke's shadow is back, but what about Ace? Seeing Brooke dancing, the gloom on Yuna's forehead did not diminish much.
"Ah, there!" The sharp-eyed Grace could see most of the silhouette in the smoke, "Captain is fine, but it's ······" It stands to reason that zombies that have lost their shadows will directly lose their mobility, because zombies themselves are lifeless beings, but ······
Today, Ryoma is still standing straight in front of everyone······ Back to back with Ace.
"Hmmm..."
A bloody arrow suddenly gushed out of his chest, but it was Ace who knelt down on one knee with his wound, the blood that kept splashing on his chest soaked his shirt, and Ryoma's stabbing blow penetrated his right chest, which was the consequence of Ace's use of armed color domineering to force the opponent's attack to deviate from the trajectory!
"Ace !!" Yuna's eyes were about to split, and her steps that wanted to rush forward stopped at the signal of Ace's fierce eyes.
At this time, Ryoma was silent, his dry right hand put on the autumn water, and he threw it into the sky, and the autumn water fell heavily in front of Ace.
"What does that mean?" At this time, everyone didn't understand Ryoma's intentions, he gave his love knife to Ace, was he admitting defeat?
"You won ······" Ryoma's deep voice came from behind him.
Hearing Ryoma's words, Ace showed a helpless smile, "Win?" Who won? Ryoma, or you? ”
As if he hadn't heard the other party's words, Ryoma still said in his unique voice, "If Qiushui follows you, it won't be considered a disgrace to the name of the sword······
"That kind of thing, whatever you want, but ······" Ace turned around at this time and looked at Ryoma seriously, "I won't tell people that I won the Dragon Slayer Swordsman Ryoma, I will only say 'Zombie Ryoma left a scar on my chest that will never be forgotten'!" ”
"Yo ho ho ho ho ······ Yo ho ho ho ······" Ryoma just laughed, then gradually turned into maniacal laughter, and was finally blown to ashes in a burst of laughter.
The domineering energy that Ace left in Ryoma's body finally broke out at this moment!
