The Pirate's Ultimate Swordsman, One Man is the Royal Group

People are making up their minds.

The moment you make the choice to face disaster alone.

They can often exert power beyond others' imagination.

Arthur is affected by the full power of Blade Ice.

This effect allows him to use all of the domineering aura that has been absorbed by the blade for many years in combat, but it also drains away quickly.

During this time, Arthur was able to rival Ski and consume his Haki and stamina.

"Do you think I'd be like the people you killed? Don't generalize."

"Haha, you're no different in front of me. Do you think you're special?" Shiki, who had flown onto the mast, quickly stabilized his body and floated into the air.

Activate the ability to make the surrounding debris float in the air.

The debris instantly broke the speed of sound and rushed towards Arthur.

It's like it's controlled by mind, and its power is several times greater than a bullet.

"You are just an obstacle or a tool before I realize my ambition." Arthur swung the blade quickly to intercept them.

A murderous aura weighed down on him.

He stepped on the deck of the Golden Lion's main ship and flashed under him with a knife.

Shiqi gritted his teeth when he saw this, and felt the endless murderous intent from Arthur. He swung the two swords in his hands very quickly and fought fiercely with him.

"I just want to chop you into pieces!"

"It's you who's being chopped into pieces!"

The two men's deadly swordsmanship clashed, and the domineering lightning of the king's aura bombarded the Edwo Sea.

Tsunamis, whirlpools, storms, and all kinds of extreme weather conditions that ships fear.

All of this was exacerbated by the fight between the two of them.

"Governor Skey!"

"Lord Shiki!"

"The storm is too strong, it will affect your devil fruit!"

On the Golden Lion flagship, the pirates held weapons wrapped in armament-colored skins and wanted to help their captain.

However, they discovered that the shockwaves generated by the battle between the two made it difficult for their strengths to get close.

Every time the blades alternated, a powerful sword tip would fly toward the dozen or so remaining pirate ships of the Golden Lion.

Continuously damaging the hull.

Seeing this, Shiqi activated his ability while swinging his sword to make the main ship fly into the sky where heavy rain was pouring down.

Reduce the losses caused.

"You guys, use your cannons to sink the Ol Jaxson, and I will deal with these two guys!" Golden Lion loudly gave the captain's order to the entire ship.

Cooper, who had entered a death match, also started killing mode on the deck.

They intercepted with all their might the pirates from the Flying Pirates who were trying to provide support and launch a surprise attack.

The wings are like knives, sharp enough to break spines.

"Stop them, Cooper...at all costs! Leave Golden Lion Ski to me!" Arthur also said to Cooper, the only one who could give orders.

"Cooper...?" (I...?)

It defeated everyone else on the boat, stepped onto the side and looked out at the raging sea below.

The dozen or so ships of the Flying Pirates heading towards the Ol Jaxson.

"Go ahead, this is our last fight for them! If you get tired of killing, leave this sea area alone, understand?"

The final battle? Cooper watched Arthur and Skie clash with swords in rapid succession, as if he understood the meaning.

The eagle's eyes suddenly became firm, and it spread its wings and dived down towards the sea below.

"It's so hilarious, hahaha, being so affectionate and loyal to a beast? It's useless!" Shiqi laughed.

The countless broken pieces of ship hull around him became objects that he controlled.

It has huge destructive power and keeps attacking Arthur.

Arthur struggled to resist, not understanding...

The superhuman Float-Float Fruit requires the user to touch the object in order to control it.

Seeing that Shiki didn't even touch them, he turned the objects around him into his weapons.

He waved his arms faster, fast enough to catch up with Shiki's speed.

He engaged Shiki in swordplay while destroying the objects that flew at him.

"Have courage."

Shiki's aura gradually emerged:

"I want to challenge myself, the me who has awakened the power of the devil fruit, the me who has the world's top swordsmanship, and the me who is domineering and comprehensive..."

Shiqi introduced himself to Arthur with arrogance and pride.

Even now, he didn't take Arthur seriously.

I never thought that this little brat would dare to face me alone.

He was angry and annoyed, and was determined to break Arthur's faith and will.

Let him surrender or die in grief.

But with such a rare fighting force, Shi Ji would certainly try to surrender.

"I'm sorry, I really can't think of how you can defeat me now." As he said that, Ski cut Arthur in half with a knife.

Arthur's body seemed to have been hit violently, and his feet slid on the cracked deck, creating a little distance between him and Ski.

He slowly raised his hand and waved it gently in the wind:

"In your future, either you stay loyal to me like a dog, or you die without a complete body and leave your corpse exposed in the wilderness!"

Instantly.

Various weapons and equipment flew out from the cabin of the Golden Lion main ship.

Floating around his body, waiting for his orders.

Seeing that he could play with the Float-Float Fruit like this, Arthur was so angry that he laughed.

The blood flowing from his body was washed away by the rain, and his breathing became rapid.

"I really don't understand, what's so good about Roger?"

After Shi Ji had assembled his weapons, he asked Arthur, "Are you willing to risk your life to buy him some time?"

"I live for myself. I do what I am and what I do." Arthur responded as he recovered his strength.

Every cell in my body was tense, alert to Shiqi's every move.

"Focus..." Arthur calmed down and focused his entire vision on Ski.

The raindrops, storms, and lightning around him were all blocked by him.

"What kind of answer is that? Are you challenging me alone for your own sake? In my opinion, you are just seeking death." Ski was full of doubts about Arthur's answer.

"What ambition do you have? Or what belief supports you to fight? I am also very concerned about the shocking news four years ago. Why did the Navy publicly execute you again?"

"Turning a country into ashes? If it's because of such a small matter, then Zhan Guo is really childish."

Shiqi was very interested in Arthur.

During the conversation, the surrounding raindrops were transformed into flying rain lions one after another.

As a way to save strength for the upcoming battle.

He used the Floating Fruit in many different ways.

"Now that Roger is away, come and work for me in the Sky Pirates. It will definitely be a thousand times better than working for Roger." Shiki made a sincere invitation to Arthur.

"You will become my sharpest blade, Arthur. I promise that I will never treat you unfairly, just like those companions who followed me even to death."

If Arthur could be recruited, Golden Lion would be able to accept the huge loss of the Flying Pirates this time.

With people like Arthur, the government will be able to deal with the Knights of God.

As Shiqi spoke, Arthur's hunched body suddenly straightened up and his strength was restored.

His expression was sad and he stood in front of Shiqi with a knife in hand.

That icy aura made Shiqi feel uncomfortable even from a distance.

I have never seen such a person before. He just feels lonely and suffocating. I don't want to get close to him.

"Do you think I look like someone who can trust others?"
