The rudimentary raft was about to crash into the bottom of the Horror Spectre and shatter itself, but the man on the raft didn't see the slightest look of panic.

He put his hand behind his back, slowly drew out the huge black knife like a cross, and slashed forward in the air with a bang!

Sonor!

A cyan sword aura instantly burst into the sky, like the dorsal fin of a shark sea king, breaking through the surging sea, and shooting towards the Horror Ghost, unbelievably slashing the entire black ship in half!

Boom!

The Horror Ghost was cut off, and like Moses' miracle of dividing the sea, a wide path was made for the man's raft to pass.

The people who were scuffling on the black ship were caught off guard and changed color in shock, and they all grabbed the objects around them when the hull of the ship tilted!

Only David Jones was unconcerned about the damage to the Horror Ghost, and under his will, the ship would soon heal like his regenerative body.

What he really cared about was how the man holding the long knife of the cross could slash with such an amazing power, and what was the awe-inspiring momentum that flashed just now?

David Jones was keenly aware that he seemed to have touched another set of laws of power in this world, and a whole new ability was emerging.

Zoro was hit head-on by almost the entire sword qi.

Before he could react, the deck beneath his feet slammed into the sides, revealing a cliff-like height.

He fell straight down, and was about to fall into the sea.

It just so happened that the raft arrived with the undulations of the waves.

Sauron slammed into the icy waters nearby, and calmly controlled his body and swam smoothly to the surface, his hands on the raft.

The man sitting on the raft looked at him indifferently, his eyes were like golden rings, the black knife in his hand had already been inserted back into the scabbard behind him, and he crossed Erlang's legs and put his hands on his protruding knees.

Zoro wiped the water from his face, and after seeing the face of the man on the raft, he showed a look of disbelief, followed by excitement, and he climbed onto the raft trembling with excitement.

"'Hawkeye' Jorakol Mihawk." Zoro was drenched, still dripping with water, embarrassed, but grinned, "I didn't expect to meet you here, it seems that I don't need to go to the Great Voyage." ”

Mihawk, who had a beard, looked up suspiciously, and the rain hit the brim of his hat, ticking: "I know you?" ”

"It's enough that I know you." Suo Sheng put on a new three-sword stance, even more powerful than on the Terror Ghost, like a fierce beast, "I'm here to challenge you, and then become the man of the 'World's No. 1 Sword Hero' - Roronoa Zoro!" ”

He never laughed at Luffy's "One Piece" dream, just as Luffy never laughed at his dream of "the world's number one swordsman".

And "the world's No. 1 swordsman" Mihawk, right in front of him, seems to be only one step away from realizing his dream!

No, in fact, he knew that there must be a gap in strength between the two of them, but the more this is the case, the more he has to draw his sword and challenge, otherwise he will not be able to surpass Mihawk in his life.

"A swordsman?" Mihawk looked at Sauron, then reached down and removed the cross necklace from his chest, pulling out a knife from it, "Seems interesting...... Let's pass the time. ”

-----------------

It's a pity that David Jones's eyes can't see through the appearance, otherwise he would have known what kind of power the man on the raft had used in a moment.

As the raft navigated the gap between the wrecks of the Terror Ghost, he saw Sauron climb onto the raft and seemed to be in conflict with the man.

"They know?" As David Jones muttered to himself, he noticed the situation around him, "So you're here, too." ”

On the ship's side railing not far away, Luffy squatted on it with his hands and feet like an ape.

He also saw Sauron below start a battle with the man, and although he was a little confused, he still chose to trust his partner.

The Terror Ghost was split in two at the moment, with Chloe, Arrita, and Bucky on the bow side, and David Jones and Luffy on the stern side.

"Uncle Octopus." Luffy's straw hat was blown up by the wind, and he reached out and held it, "I have agreed with Zoro that as long as I get your bounty, he will be my partner...... I'm going to take you down. ”

"Really?" David Jones listened to the green words, and the three tentacles in his right hand waved, "It just so happens that I was looking for the Sauron you said about something, and the people on the raft...... Hopefully they will come back to you. ”

He thought that Luffy and Zoro were somehow related to Mihawk.

Luffy jumped off the side of the ship, shouting "rubber rubber" while running on the slippery deck in his slippers.

With only half of the stern tilted, the speed at which he rushed down was almost uncontrollable!

Three of David Jones' tentacles reached out and almost grabbed Luffy, but Luffy nimbly jumped through the gap.

But at the same time, he also flew past David Jones and flew to the surface.

If Luffy, who is a Devil Fruit ability, falls into the sea and the curse takes effect, it will be almost impossible for him to surface on his own initiative.

However, Luffy's ability to adapt is enough to improvise, he turns to the side, one arm is stretched out, and he wraps around the ship's side railing, trying to use it to get back to the deck.

Phew—Luffy got closer and closer to the deck as his arm shortened, only to see David Jones raise his pistol and aim it at him.

He hurriedly covered his eyes with one arm.

As for the bullet hitting other positions, he is not afraid, because his rubber physique can not only act as a cushion, but also bounce the bullet back!

However, David Jones' pistol bullet is not an ordinary bullet.

"Gun reverse"!

He deliberately stood in the position where Luffy was about to bounce back, and the muzzle of the gun slammed into fire!

A bullet of condensed fear immediately hit Luffy's chest, and it did bounce out, but the effect was triggered.

Luffy found himself stiff, no longer as flexible as before, as if his body didn't belong to him at all.

With a bang, Luffy slammed into the deck.

Before he could come to his senses, one tentacle wrapped tightly around his waist, another around his hands, and finally around his feet, lifting him up and pulling him in front of David Jones.

"I can't kill you yet." David Jones looked at Luffy struggling between his tentacles, "Maybe we can make a good deal with them." ”

Luffy desperately tries to get rid of the tentacle entanglement, but finds that the power of the tentacles is amazing.

He had no choice but to stretch his neck and want to attack David Jones with his headbutt, but David Jones stretched out his tentacles, widening the distance between the two and making Luffy's headbutt miss.

David Jones's tentacles stretched out longer and longer, directly submerging Luffy's whole person in the sea!

Gollum –

For ordinary people, soaking in water while their bodies are under control is a punishment, not to mention those who are born with Devil Fruit abilities that are weaker than seawater.

Luffy was thrashing and bubbling with his hands and feet in the water, but after a while, the speed of his hands and feet slowed down until he stopped.

Only then did David Jones pull Luffy out of the sea and put him on deck.

At this moment, Luffy had rolled his eyes and fainted.

And the two hulls of the Terror Ghost also consciously regained their balance at this moment, and approached each other.

The original fractures are creaking together, and the whole restoration process is quite barbaric, and some parts are even misplaced and forcibly merged!

Aryrita, Bucky, and Chloe were also able to walk up to David Jones from the bow side, and it wasn't much of a surprise to see the captain finish off the straw hat kid jumping up and down so quickly.

At this moment, the person who was really surprised was standing on the raft.

Mihawk accepted Zoro's challenge, first with a knife.

Later, he was impressed by Sauron's tenacity and decided to give him a certain level of respect, so he pulled out the seemingly soft, but in fact sharp black knife - "Night".

With a slanted sword, he easily slashed Zoro onto the raft, blood gushing and staining the waves beneath the raft.

I believe that this knife will impress Zoro deeply, make him understand how big the gap is between himself and the "world's number one swordsman", and hope that he will have the courage to dare to challenge himself at that time.

Just as he was thinking about what to do with Zoro, Mihawk noticed in the blink of an eye that the black ship he had split with his hands had been reintegrated in such a short period of time, as if it had never been cut off.

If it weren't for the badly injured Zoro lying at his feet, Mihawk would have thought he wasn't dreaming.

"A ship that can't even be cut off?" Interested in it, he swung his black knife and plunged it into the water, and the raft changed direction and rushed towards the black ship.
