I summon the shadow army in Pirates.

The William Pirates arrive.

Ajin’s special news.

Coles keenly guessed that Ajin might be related to the William Pirates, but he had no way of knowing what the specific relationship was.

As the William Pirates approached, the originally relaxed atmosphere on the main ship became tense again.

finally.

The two ships slowly came into contact.

William led his fellow pirates onto the deck of Creek's main ship. His eyes first swept over Ajin's body. After confirming that Ajin was still alive, he gradually let go of his worries.

then.

Based on the battle situation at the scene, his eyes were fixed on the young naval officer not far away.

"Charlotte Coles, am I remembering correctly?"

Facing William's inquiry.

"Yeah." Coles replied calmly.

William glanced at the defeated Creek Pirates again and spoke out.

"It seems that you have made great progress during this period. You were able to defeat the 3,000-man fleet of the Clik pirate ship with just one patrol ship."

Coles was noncommittal.

"What are you, the William Pirates, doing here?"

Hearing this, William's heroic face showed a smile.

The next moment, he pulled out the saber from his waist and rushed towards Coles.

Coles was well prepared, holding a knife and colliding with the charging William.

The two knives rubbed violently causing sparks.

What followed was a constant clash of swordsmanship.

William had a smile on his face.

"I said before that when we meet next time, I hope you can personally take over my sword skills. It seems that you have not disappointed me!"

Coles held the knife tightly in his hand.

Precise swordsmanship was performed, and every sword strike collided with William's swordsmanship attack.

"During this period, I have been training intensively on swordsmanship every day, just to shorten the distance between me and you!"

The naval soldiers at the rear were a little at a loss. They did not expect that Ensign Coles would fight with William from the beginning.

And their strength is low.

Faced with a battle of this level, he could only wait for the result on the spot.

At that time at the port of Rogge Town, Coles faced William's extremely fast knife, and he deeply felt his own powerlessness.

After that, under the huge pressure brought by William, he began to train tirelessly at a high level, with the purpose of being able to fight back when he met the opponent.

After this period of growth, Coles' strength has also improved rapidly.

Today, it’s finally time to judge.

clang!clang!clang!

After clashing with dozens of swords, Coles jumped up, the muscles in his hands tightened, and the long sword slashed down with great force.

"Wind Slash!"

A few days ago, he used this sword move to kill Aaron, who had a bounty of 20 million beli on his head, which shows how powerful this sword move is.

Today after meeting William.

This sword move was struck again.

The force of the strong wind became stronger and stronger, and finally fell with a sudden and extreme force.

Facing the sword slashed by Coles, William's expression did not change and he blocked the sword horizontally.

clang!

The strong wind spread to all directions, blowing William's robes.

But that was all, William knocked Coles back with a backhand knife.

"The progress of swordsmanship in less than a year is indeed rare and abnormal. However, do you think you can defeat me like this?"

After exiting for more than ten meters.

Coles charged again.

"Who knows?"

Main Ship Center.

The two men, whose swordsmanship has surpassed the average level of Donghai, are constantly fighting.

But as time passed, it became clear that Coles was suppressed by William.

Although Coles's swordsmanship was already top-notch in precision swordsmanship, William's swordsmanship was far beyond him and he began to suppress him easily.

This is not the realm of cutting iron!

It's a swordsman level!

Coles's expression became solemn instantly, but he was already prepared for this, and there was not much shock or confusion in his heart.

"Die!"

William was not prepared to keep his hand, so he accelerated his figure and slashed down with the long knife in his hand like a ghost.

"[Lanlos]!"

Following Cole's order.

A shadow knight commander wearing bright black armor and a red cape appeared behind him, and the long sword transformed from the shadow blocked William's fatal blow.

And Coles also took advantage of this opportunity.

The knife in his hand swept across.

After all, William is a master of superb swordsmanship, and his reflexes are extremely strong. He quickly retreated, and then his eyes fell on [Lanlos].

"This is your devil fruit ability!"

The pirate Adulun escaped.

The specific way in which Coles' Devil Fruit ability is demonstrated is naturally known to the other party.

Therefore, it was not surprising for William to see it.

Coles did not answer William's question, and joined forces with [Lanlos] to attack William together.

As a master of swordsmanship at the same level as a swordsman, [Lanlos] can very effectively contain William.

Coles also took this advantage to reverse the situation that was originally suppressed by William.

As for the William Pirates, the pirates were originally full of confidence in Captain William.

But with the appearance of [Lanlos], the situation changed, and I couldn't help but feel worried.

Among them, the pirate Adulun, who had fought against Coles before, was filled with doubts.

It was obvious that Coles was just a recruit with similar strength to him before. Why did his strength improve so quickly in less than a year?

After Adun died, Adulun also trained very hard, and now the bounty strength has been increased to 10 million beli.

But facing Captain William's strength, he still couldn't survive a single blow.

But Coles can actually fight Captain William for so long now, and the situation is evenly matched. This makes him a little unbelievable. Is it because of the monster's talent or the devil fruit?

In Adulun's view.

It's both.

That black shadow knight is Coles' devil fruit ability.

In addition to the Devil Fruit ability, Coles' own swordsmanship strength has far surpassed him. After all, Adulun has only recently entered the realm of precise swordsmanship.

Swords collide!

The sound kept ringing on the main ship.

The three weapons collided with each other, and the three figures also staggered from time to time.

Swish!

William separated [Lanlos]'s shadow sword and stabbed [Lanlos] in the arm with one move.

The shadow body was penetrated.

But [Lanlos] felt no pain at all, and slashed down with the long sword in his hand.

boom!

A huge crack was opened directly on the deck of Creek's main ship.

William quickly moved away, observing the gradually recovering shadow body of [Lanlos], thinking of the situation reported by Adulun at that time, and guessing the possibility of the shadow soldier's immortality.

Coles used "Shaving" to appear behind William and slashed at William's head with a slash.

The long knife in William's hand was inserted into the deck. He dodged in a special posture and narrowly avoided the attack, but he was still cut off a strand of hair.

During the time when the hair falls to the ground.

William counterattacked Coles dozens of times. Although he was about to kill Coles, [Lanlos] was already approaching, forcing him to turn around and defend.

The battle remained stalemate.

……

ten minutes later.

William forced Coles and [Lanlos] back with a knife, and spoke confidently.

"A swordsman-level fighter is indeed good, but if you summon him to fight, there must be some restrictions."

Coles didn't answer.

Because the facts are indeed as William said, although summoning the shadow can allow [Lanlos] to fight for him, his mental power is constantly being consumed, and he can no longer support the summoning for too long.

William said again: "I can give you a choice now. Take your subordinate soldiers and leave. I will not take action against you again."

"Ah Jin is your companion!" Coles looked at the middle-aged man among the prisoners.

"Yes."

William admitted and then continued.

"Originally I planned to take action against the Creek Pirates today, but I didn't expect that you got there first. Let Ajin go and you can leave."

Coles exhaled slowly.

He turned his head and looked at the pirate prisoners and subordinate navy soldiers behind him.

This scene seemed to take him back to the port of Rogge Town, when William threatened Major Kahn with new soldiers in exchange for Jeff.

Finally, Coles' eyes returned to William and said seriously.

"Your proposal is very good."

"But, I refuse!"
