I Don't Know You / Francis Drake Makes Her Entrance

He solemnly said, "Give me your name."

"Kuina, Wado Ichimonji!"

Kuina solemnly presented her name and the name of the sword she held, a gesture of etiquette for swordsmen.

"Jorakoel Mihawk, Night!"

Mihawk also solemnly announced his name, even though his name was known all over the world.

He respected the girl in front of him and did not show any disrespect because of her age.

Chapter 5, Section 424: I'm Not Familiar with You

"Oh? Someone's challenging Mihawk."

The other members of the Seven Warlords of the Sea adopted a spectator attitude. Although they did not believe that Kuina could really defeat Mihawk, that did not stop them from watching the show from the sidelines.

If something unexpected happens, that would be even better; they could then laugh at Mihawk to their heart's content.

"Anna, what do you think?" Hancock, who was also watching the spectacle, asked Anna beside her.

Anna had of course already spotted Musashi, and she was somewhat surprised when he Musashi.

"I don't know who will win, but I know this won't be a quick battle."

Anna shared her thoughts.

With Miyamoto Musashi present, Anna had every reason to believe that it was definitely not an unprepared challenge.

"Anna, you actually think so highly of the girl on the other side?" Hancock was a little surprised. In her opinion, Kuina shouldn't last more than a few rounds against Mihawk.

However, Anna's assessment was that they were evenly matched, which surprised her somewhat.

She knew Anna's capabilities very well, and she didn't doubt Anna's judgment, nor did she think Anna was just talking nonsense.

"I don't know that Kuina, but I know the woman behind her. She's no less capable than me."

Anna turned her gaze to Musashi, who was standing in the distance with his arms crossed.

Musashi sensed something and followed the gaze, spotting Anna and immediately raising her hand high to wave.

"Anna! What are you doing here!"

Anna couldn't help but frown, slamming her scythe on the ground and shouting, "We're enemies now, okay? I don't know you at all!"

Just as Musashi and Anna were exchanging words, Luffy arrived at the scene with the prisoners from Impel Down, making the already chaotic battlefield even more uncontrollable.

But this is far from the end.

A flash of light and shadow revealed a group of figures in the very center of the battlefield.

Wow! It's so lively!

"Ah! I'm going to die! Da Vinci, can't you be a little more reliable?!"

"Be careful, senior!"

"My Luminosité Eternelle!"

Different personalities, different reactions.

Yuxian and his group were teleported to the very center of the battlefield in Marineford.

To his left was the power of Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and to his right were Aokiji's ice spear and Akainu's lava.

It also includes various missiles, sword energy, and so on.

Fortunately, Jeanne d'Arc of Arc reacted quickly enough, immediately activating her Noble Phantasm to protect everyone inside; otherwise, Yuxian felt he would have perished here today.

He was very frustrated, wondering why he hadn't offended Da Vinci and had been thrown into such a terrible place.

Yuxian and his group appeared very abruptly, arousing the alert of both the pirates and the navy.

Jeanne d'Arc's Noble Phantasm was unleashed, blocking all attacks and sending a shiver down the spines of everyone present.

The aura emanating from that Fleur-de-lis Banner, fluttering even without wind, was sacred and noble, impossible for anyone to ignore.

Anna, standing on the high platform, stared wide-eyed at Yuxian's appearance.

Without a second thought, she leaped off the platform, her lithe body shooting off like an arrow.

Anyone who stood in her way, whether a navy officer or a pirate, was knocked away by her scythe.

"Anna!" Hancock called from behind, but Anna didn't respond.

"Ah! It's Anna!" The children exclaimed excitedly as they saw Anna running towards them.

Yuxian also noticed Anna's movements and waved to her, calling out, "Anna!"

"Die!" Anna approached without any intention of reminiscing. She glared and Yuxian her scythe at Yu Xian with lightning speed.

When!

The sickle grazed Yuxian's side and slammed violently against the hard floor, making a loud noise.

"Anna, stop fooling around, it's dangerous now."

Anna glared at her and said fiercely, "I don't know you!"

Instead of using the sickle to cut Yuxian, she used the chain behind the sickle to bind Yu Yuxian and dragged Yuxian out of the battlefield.

"Oh no! The Master has been kidnapped by Anna!"

The children hurriedly followed, but despite their serious words, they showed no intention of helping Yuxian and simply watched as Yuxian was kidnapped by Anna.

Standing in the middle of the battlefield, watched by countless people, and being dragged along by Anna like a prisoner, Yuxian was incredibly embarrassed.

Reaching the edge of the battlefield, it's much safer here.

Yuxian quickly said, "Anna, let me go! Let's get out of this awful place as soon as possible. It's very dangerous here."

Anna turned away in a huff, refusing to cooperate at all, leaving Yuxian with only the back of her head.

Yuxian knew perfectly well that Anna was just throwing a tantrum, and smiled helplessly.

Musashi came over and joined the others. "Master, why are you taking so long to arrive?"

"I knew I shouldn't have come. Why are you at Marine Headquarters? Don't you have enough trouble already?" Yuxian said irritably.

Musashi smiled and gestured towards Kuina in the distance.

Looking in the direction Musashi was pointing, a young girl was fighting against Hawkeye. Yuxian asked curiously, "Who is she?"

The current Kuina is very different from when they left. Over the years, Kuina has grown from that stubborn little girl into a graceful young woman.

"Kuina".

"Kuina?"

Yuxian was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, the children started making a huge fuss.

"Wow! Kuina has grown so much! We want to grow up too!"

"Is she someone I know?" Abby asked doubtfully, as she didn't know Kuina.

"Hmm, when we first met, she wasn't even as tall as me," Little Jeanne pouted, clearly dissatisfied.

Kuina has now betrayed them and become an adult.

"Should we go help her? She seems to be in bad shape." Abby blinked; Kuina seemed to be struggling in her fight with Hawkeye.

The title of the world's greatest swordsman is well-deserved; he has held the throne for many years, clearly demonstrating that Mihawk possesses the strength to match it.

Kuina is a young and inexperienced woman who wants to defeat her opponent and become the world's greatest swordsman. She is clearly lacking in skill and has a long way to go.

Musashi was well aware of this, but she still brought Kuina with her.

"Don't go!" Musashi stopped the children. "This is her battle. Don't disturb her."

Yuxian looked at Musashi and asked softly, "Isn't this a bit too strict?"

Musashi shook his head. "Kuina is too kind."

"She never doubted me and always did what I said, but my path was not suitable for her."

Watching Kuina struggle to parry Hawkeye's attacks, Musashi's eyes revealed a hint of emotion and affection.

"I hope she can find her own path through this battle."

Yuxian nodded. He had no say in this matter, but he trusted Musashi's approach.

Hopefully, Kuina can truly break through her limitations, forge her own path, and fulfill her dreams.

Become the world's greatest Great Swordsman!

Chapter 6, Section 425: Francis Drake makes his appearance.

Yuxian's appearance was merely a side story; the battle between the pirates and the navy continued.

Luffy continues his quest to get close to the execution platform and save Ace.

Whitebeard truly deserves to be called the strongest man on the sea. He single-handedly fought against the three admirals of the Navy and did not fall behind. If his body had not begun to decline with age, he might have been able to defeat Marineford.

However, time is merciless, and he eventually grew old.

Leaving aside the ambiguous attitude of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the wavering Garp, at least Sengoku is still standing by, not yet having made a move.

It would be very difficult for him to rescue Ace on his own.

"Anna, please let me go." Yuxian pleaded with Anna in a low voice, as being tied up like this couldn't go on forever.

"No!" Anna refused Yuxian's request without hesitation.

"I'll treat you to cake!"

Yuxian threw out bait, attempting to win Anna over. He knew Anna had little resistance to desserts, so this was a way to appeal to her tastes.

Anna was somewhat tempted and twisted her body slightly, but quickly became resolute again.

"No way! I don't want your cake!"

Yuxian was dumbfounded. How much resentment was there? It was clear that Anna was still very tempted by the cake, but she still refused.

A thought struck him, and he kept winking at the children beside him, signaling them to plead for him.

The children all turned their heads away, pretending not to see Yuxian's gesture, and each of them changed the subject.

Yuxian muttered to himself, "They're all heartless bastards! I'll deal with them one by one later."

He was tied up by Anna and couldn't move, so he simply watched from the sidelines.

Summit War!

Yuxian sighed inwardly, this was Whitebeard's most glorious moment, and also the moment his curtain fell.

He has no Yuxian to intervene in the battles, nor will he. Whitebeard is fighting for what he believes in.

A man's principles should not be disturbed by outsiders.

At most, I'll help him out in other ways, depending on the situation, such as...

Yuxian glanced at Ace on the execution platform, the spark that ignited this war and the source of this major event.

If we could secretly rescue Ace, it would be a great help to Whitebeard.

How do I do this?

Yuxian began to think carefully. This time, their combat strength seemed insufficient, and they needed to plan ahead.

If only Heracles had come with him, they could have just charged straight in and killed anyone who tried to stop them.

Should we contact Da Vinci and ask her to send Heracles over?

Yuxian thought about it for a moment and quickly gave up. He always felt that Da Vinci was a little off, like she was going through menopause. He would try not to contact her if he could avoid it.
