Pirate: Reincarnated as a Black Charcoal Orochi

"Do you know the nature of candles?"

Looking at Moriah, who once again had countless drops of blood all over his body. His body was so weak that he could not get up again. There were even a few uncontrollable shadows spilling out of his iron-green body. Fu Lu Shou did not notice it. What kind of psychological superiority do you get?

He always kept in mind that his current mission was to recruit talents from overseas for Orochi, but he still had an indifferent expression on his face, and followed the tradition of overseas and began to explain his abilities abruptly:

“The reason why so-called candles can provide continuous lighting is not actually achieved by burning wax.

In fact, the wax vapor that sublimates after the wax is heated by the wick flame is used as fuel to maintain the burning of the wick.

That is to say..."

As he spoke, several more dazzling streaks of light streaked across the middle of the wax figure's body, either at the head or at the waist.

Divide a good person into two, four, eight, or even sixteen or 32 parts.

But Mihawk's attack was as futile as all the previous attacks.

Even if the Fu Lu Shou who is currently speaking is cut open, there will always be a brand new Fu Lu Shou walking out from the irregular flow of wax and fat around him, like a ghost that cannot be knocked down, taking over the chopped meat. Continue the topic before leaving.

"The burning of a candle does not just involve the wax, the wick, and the flame.

In fact, it also includes wax and grease vapor that ordinary people usually don't notice.

Depending on the material and ratio of the wax itself, there will be many interesting reactions. "

While Fu Lu Shou slowly walked towards the direction of Moriah who fell to the ground, he made various colorful candles with different shapes and colors in his palms raised in front of him. Another opponent further away showed them off one by one.

"As a candleman, I can also create special wax grease whose vapor is corrosive, and then fill this bright red wax grease into the wax statue clone and disguise it as blood.

Once someone breaks it at close range, the wax and grease heated up by the force caused by the damage to the container will sublimate into steam invisible to the naked eye and enter the attacker's body before he can react.

And as long as these are entered into the body, the candle derivatives controlled by me will be received within a certain period of time, and then..."

Under the cover of sunglasses, Fu Lu Shou glanced at Moriah who was still struggling to get up and use his ability to control the shadow.

Immediately, countless fine dark red dots overflowed from the pores of Moria's skin.

In just a moment, this livid man with unyielding eyes seemed to be completely corroded by these small spots.

Amidst a burst of sizzling sounds that can be clearly caught by human ears, more gorgeous dark flowers began to bloom.

This kind of behavior of treating himself as a teaching material made Moriah, who was physically and mentally traumatized, completely furious:

"Hey, you bastard, if you have the ability, how about you have a head-on fight with me like a man!"

Fu Lu Shou did not pay much attention to Moria's clamor, after further ensuring that Moria had no power to disrupt the situation for the time being.

Facing the captive who was completely soaked in his own wax, he had no intention of making any further move.

Ignoring Moria's crude provocation, he immediately raised his head and looked at Mihawk, who was somewhat wary of Fu Lu Shou's wax fruit ability after he exposed himself, and had been using flying slashes to test the location of his true form since just now. .

This swordsman's intuition is difficult for even a genius ninja like Fu Lu Shou to deal with. In addition to the laborious painting skills, the wax figure clone consumes only a small amount of energy and can't even make one move in front of his slashes. Can't make it through.

Even for Fu Lu Shou, who is a candleman, such a clone can be said to be as much as he wants.

The energy consumed by temporarily creating such a clone is not even as much as the energy consumed by Mihawk's full blow.

But there is no way to go on like this. It is obvious that our side has the upper hand, but in order to achieve his goal, Fu Lu Shou can only get past Moriah, who has become a prisoner, and take the lead with Mihawk, who is becoming more and more powerful with his sword. Opening:

"Mr. Mihawk, please listen to the next words."

Mihawk, who failed to find out the true identity of his opponent from the feedback from Shi Wen Se Haki after several attempts, did not refuse to communicate with Fu Lu Shou's shouting. Since he failed to find a flaw in the battle, he hoped that he could find a flaw in the battle. There are also flaws outside of combat.

Fu Lu Shou, who had always acted cautiously, would naturally not put his body in a position where others could easily attack him.

The ninja skills passed down from generation to generation in Wano can perfectly hide the aura of happiness and longevity.

For a while, even Mihawk, who could see the breath of all things, was somewhat confused by this type of enemy.

For Fu Lushou, who is well versed in the art of concealment, in order to avoid letting his fighting spirit irritate the frowning swordsman.

He knows what it means to be a swordsman who has gone so far in the art of swordsmanship and even achieved the status of a swordsman at a young age.I have also personally experienced how difficult such a swordsman can be.

From the beginning to the end, he never aimed at Mihawk, who was obviously superior in both strength and intelligence.

It’s not that you have to pick out the soft persimmons. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. From the perspective of Fu Lu Shou:

For the current situation alone, if the opponent wants to win this one-sided friendly match.

The key point is not the swordsman "Eagle Eye" Mihawk who is most likely to reverse the relationship between strength and defeat him.

Instead, it should be the Shadow Fruit user who seemed to be unable to fight back after being beaten by him: "Hero of the West Sea" Moria.

'This is actually due to the different understanding of the victory conditions between the two sides. '

Fu Lushou, who was cut off at the waist again, thought so.

'Although I have the divine sword in my body, it is probably not realistic for Mr. Mihawk and Mr. Moria to win the battle.

But to them, I am not someone they must defeat.

If they can force me into the sea and take advantage of this time to take a boat away, then they can be considered a victory in this battle. '

For Fu Lu Shou, this battle is just a necessary flexing of muscles before attracting diners.

But for the other party, it's just an encounter that won't do any good even if they win.

Fu Lu Shou is not a swordsman, so naturally he will not let Mihawk feel any joy in seeing him.

Although Moria and his gang are domineering pirates, they are not the kind of stupid people who would risk their lives just for the sake of a fight of will.

Although he had just escaped from the edge of the East China Sea where the admiral could catch up at any time, the current environment was not like the sea where even a hundred-meter-high wave rarely appeared.

But even the great sea route with rising sea currents that go straight up to an altitude of [-] meters is far more terrifying than those from the four seas. Even the first half of the sea area, which is derided as "paradise" by people in the New World, is not relying on this thousand-year-old ship. The pirate group that is riddled with holes can survive smoothly.

It was the first time that Fu Lu Shou, who had been sliced ​​open by slashes many times, pulled out a piece of wax and grease hovering around him to form a spherical shield.

This abnormal behavior immediately aroused Mihawk's vigilance, and the spherical shield was completely torn apart by several subsequent slashes. However, Fu Lu Shou, who had obviously expected it, was still so arrogant. With an indifferent expression, he looked at Mihawk and said:

"As the captain of the ship, Mr. Moria has been defeated by luck.

As Mr. Moria's consciousness was inevitably taken away and burned away by the wax and fat in his body.

Then the ability to completely change the shadow of this ship will be released at the same time as the person with the ability loses consciousness. "

Hearing this, Mihawk's dominant hand holding the sword couldn't help but increase its strength again.

Being as smart as him, he immediately understood the unfinished meaning of the words of happiness, wealth and longevity.

"That is to say."

The swordsman, whose brows were furrowed and his eagle eyes were sharp, spoke:

"Right now, the sails and hulls that have been forcibly repaired by Moriah using his ability to change the shape of shadows will return to the dilapidated appearance that was destroyed by the navy and nearly sank from the moment he lost consciousness, right?"

Fu Lushou, who had already sensed the possibility of the mission's success, gave Mihawk a French military salute without any burden to show his sincerity.

Then he stepped to a place a sword's length away from Mihawk and stopped under the other's gaze.

"exactly."

As for "Eagle Eye", the one who is most valued by Orochi and is said to be the most likely candidate for successful recruitment.

Now Fu Lu Shou still hopes to avoid close combat with him as much as possible to avoid the possibility of overturning.

So the two parties reopened the topic of inviting diners while ignoring Moriah who fell to the ground:

"Although Mr. Moria seems to have a great misunderstanding of our country's diners system, the Palace Secretary of our country...

Ah, that is, the diners system initiated by His Majesty the King, as it is said outside the sea, does not regard you as the 'watchdog' of our country.

Rather, it is a new type of relationship that is mutually beneficial to both you and us on the premise of equality between both parties..."

The more touching Fu Lu Shou's words were, the more suspicious Mihawk, who was familiar with the world, became.

With a very obvious glance at Moriah, the young and vigorous swordsman couldn't help but said sarcastically:

"Is your recruitment method just to knock the opponent to the ground? Are you saying that this is the way of Wano?"

Faced with this unwarranted self-blame, the ninja opposite responded humorously:

"No, this should be a common practice overseas."

Mihawk couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then he had to admit that what Fu Lu Shou said did make some sense.

Although the Age of Great Pirates can become the "historical transition period" of this world, it has not yet ushered in its heyday.Those crazy fans who are yearning for the unscrupulous life of pirates and even forming pirate clubs have not yet been born.

However, in the future, the "Beasts Pirates" will take the losers of the pirate battles under their control. If the other party refuses to submit, they will be taken away from their relatives and friends and imprisoned in a small space. , using various means to make their hearts surrender.

This kind of bad behavior of "making friends after being defeated" is almost the same as that of a certain tycoon, but it is not an evil trend that will develop in the future.

Rather, it is an ancient rule that has been widely circulated among the pirate community long before the chaotic era started by the "Rocks Pirates".

Although Mihawk is fully capable of farming, weaving, cooking and even making wine on his own, he has never thought that he has anything in common with those despicable pirates who do nothing to produce and only take things from others.

However, Moria, who was defeated by this ninja who was said to be from Wano Country, was indeed a real pirate.

The social Darwinism of "the weak eats the strong" has always been the main theme of this sea that has never been calm.

Thinking of this, Mihawk began to carefully observe his opponent's appearance for the first time since they met.

Although a pair of sunglasses hid the other person's eyes, Mihawk, who thought he had some understanding of how difficult he was, could now conclude that this man was definitely not a character who could be dismissed easily.

"So, do you want to use this method to recruit me next?"

Mihawk said this with a smile on his face, but his eyes showed no trace of smile at all.

On the other hand, it was like wielding a skinning knife, wielding a cross sword that was as tall as a man as if it was light.

After regaining his composure, Mihawk immediately pointed the big sword in his hand at Fu Lu Shou, who had a blank look on his face.

It's not a flying slash, nor is it a profound domineering force.

It's just that this swordsman is confident enough to cut through a clear sky with the sword in his hand, which is naturally revealed on the blade.

It's really just that, but that's all, it can leave clearly visible marks on Fu Lu Shou's continuous improvement of the wax and fat ratio, which is actually stronger than steel.

These are unparalleled talents that have never been heard of or seen.

Jean has been flattered as a "genius ninja" since he was a child, and he is also very accomplished in the Kodachi technique that ninjas are good at.

Fu Lushou, who even occasionally imagined that if he had embarked on the path of kendo since childhood, he would be able to achieve as much achievements as he does on the path of ninja today, he felt extremely ashamed of his behavior of sitting in a well and looking at the sky.

Having fully understood what kind of talent the swordsman in front of him was, it was certainly impossible for Fu Lu Shou to knock this swordsman, who was almost on par with Ryoma, the "God of Swords" who protected Wano Country hundreds of years ago in his heart, to the ground. Moria is regarded as a piece of shit:

"Your Excellency is really frightened to say this, but your Excellency and Mr. Moria are completely different.

From the beginning, I did not hear a clear rejection reply from your mouth.

This gives me enough reason to believe that Mr. Mihawk is a talent that can be won over peacefully. "

Regarding Fu Lu Shou's words, which he tried to express as sincerely as possible, Mihawk left one sentence unequivocally:

"Huh, maybe that's right."

It is quite different from the former "King Shichibukai" who will ascend to the throne of "the world's greatest swordsman" in the future.

Mihawk, who is still climbing to the top of swordsmanship, and even the famous sword "Ye" that will be able to rank among the top twelve swordsmen in the future, has not yet been refined into a black sword. The so-called "world's strongest black sword" naturally There is no way to talk about it.

Such a young man is full of energy, just like the sun rising at eight or nine in the morning.

Naturally, he will not be like 20 years later, willing to hide behind a superficial man because he looks forward to a peaceful life.

At this moment, Moriah, who had been relying on his perseverance to protect the crew, was unable to keep his consciousness awake under the continuous turmoil of the corrosive wax vapor and the shadows of others in his body, and finally managed to stay awake. I don't know why I fainted.

The consequence of the ability user losing consciousness is that the effects of the abilities he activates will be re-corrected by the laws of the world, as if that kind of supernatural power had never appeared, and everything will proceed according to natural development.

The damaged sail will continue to crack, the broken cable will be thrown into the air by inertia, and the hull that has been riddled with holes and even the keel of the ship will naturally be destroyed by the action of nature. The water rushes in.

"Then it's almost time."

The Devil Fruit user who created such a desperate situation in the middle of the sea with one hand nodded in relief.

"Mr. Mihawk, please make your choice to accept my invitation to go to Wano Country and become a diner of our country..."

The wax fat that had been circling and sideways finally showed its original image, imitating the strongest image known to Fu Lu Shou. The eight-headed and eight-tailed snake with turbid white scales stood out on the sinking giant ship. Descend above.

"Or are we going to face the fate of disappearing into the sea with this worthless ship here?"
