Dracule Mihawk (Alliance Leader 8/10)

As the sun sets, the boundless evening glow lingers on the horizon, while the blazing sun slowly fades into the distance, disappearing into the horizon.

In Loguetown, a naval base, in a large square, a figure, sweating profusely, is engaged in various high-intensity training exercises.

The arrival of Zephyr and his crew gradually calmed down Loguetown, and many pirates became more subdued.

As long as they don't cause trouble, the Navy turns a blind eye to some notorious pirates, and the two sides maintain a balance.

And so, a strange atmosphere enveloped the Loguetown, and time slowly passed, until a month later.

As time went by, some important figures gradually set foot in the town, making the pressure on the navy heavier than ever before.

"Brother Ye Chen, let's go out and have some fun! We've been here for almost half a month."

As dusk fell, Hina, dressed up specially, wore a blue short skirt, her long legs encased in stockings, and high-heeled sandals. She ran to Ye Chen's side, acting coquettishly.

For more than half a month, since arriving here, Ye Chen hadn't gone out. Even when pirates caused trouble, Kuzan and the others would handle it. Therefore, Ye Chen started to slack off, spending all his time cultivating.

"Boss, it's not about me, but everyone outside is saying you're no match for Kuzan and his two companions because you don't go out. A lot of arrogant pirates have been captured by Kuzan, which has made his reputation even higher than ours. I can't stand by and watch."

With her ears perked up, Bai Doudou harbored a great deal of resentment.

As for Shu and Very Good, they nodded in agreement.

Ye Chen flipped over and stood upside down, supporting himself on one finger with a house-sized training device on his feet. He was sweating profusely as he went up and down.

"Just like the previous days, you can go out and have fun on your own!"

Ignoring him, Ye Chen replied with a single sentence, his neck covered in scars and veins bulging.

Squatting down, Hina, her long hair loose, pouted and said with obvious dissatisfaction, "Just come out with us! The takoyaki we had last time was so delicious!"

I'm not hungry.

Large beads of sweat dripped from Ye Chen's face, but he didn't turn his head.

"Nana, get up for a moment."

Bai Doudou, who was standing to the side, narrowed her eyes and pulled Hina up, leaving the latter confused.

"Boss, you may not care about your reputation, but I do. Rumors are circulating that God is inferior to Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru, which has caused Rabbit Lord reputation to decline. Do you know how much damage your Rabbit Lord has caused me?"

He pulled out a carrot and started munching on Bai Doudou, his eyes gleaming with a dangerous light. Lately, he'd been in a very bad mood.

Every time she went out, she would hear rumors that God was scared and had been hiding in the camp. She also heard rumors about how arrogant Aokiji was. Hearing these rumors, Bai Doudou was very angry, extremely angry.

"Your reputation is none of my business."

Ye Chen rolled his eyes; he would never take the blame for this.

"You Rabbit Lord, I'll kick you to death!"

One second they were talking amicably, the next second Bai Doudou kicked Ye Chen in the butt. Instantly, a huge gust of wind was whipped up, and Ye Chen was sent flying.

A thick sandstorm swept through, Bai Doudou stretched out her rabbit feet, clapped her hands, and cursed, "You had to let Rabbit Lord ruin all these days of self-cultivation, damn it."

"Brother Ye Chen."

This happened so fast that it caught everyone off guard.

"Bai Doudou, you old man."

Amidst howling winds and billowing dust, Ye Chen slowly emerged, one hand supporting his back, his face horribly blackened.

That kick was incredibly tricky, and coupled with that idiot's sudden attack, he couldn't dodge it.

"All you ever do is cultivate, cultivate Rabbit Lord! I'm really annoyed by the rumors I've heard outside."

"The emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is."

"Rabbit Lord 'm just not happy."

Several tens of minutes later, in a takoyaki tavern on the commercial street of Loguetown, Ye Chen, dressed in casual clothes, sat down and slowly ate takoyaki.

Beside her, Bai Doudou took a swig of strong liquor and let out a satisfied sigh.

"When did you learn to drink?" Ye Chen was taken aback, looking at the Bai Doudou that had been gulped down in one go.

"Brother Ye Chen, Doudou started drinking it half a month ago." Hina drank a cup with Bai Doudou and rolled her eyes dramatically.

"We've asked you to come several times, but you haven't come. We've been here more than ten times."

Shu's cheeks were puffed out, filled with takoyaki.

"This shop's takoyaki is still the best." Very Good gulped down the rest of his drink and burped.

"Indeed impressive." Ye Chen looked at the pirates in the hall, their chests and backs bare, each with weapons at their waists, looking Evil Fiend and menacing as they drank wine with great fanfare.

As the time for dealing with the One Piece draws ever closer, the number of pirates on the island is increasing dramatically, and every now and then, one can even spot a big shot.

Ye Chen and the others were dressed in ordinary casual clothes, sitting around a table, eating meat and drinking wine heartily, just like everyone else.

Actually, Ye Chen felt the atmosphere was quite nice.

However, in this crazy world, there will always be all sorts of self-righteous people who think they are awesome.

If you have the ability, then no matter how arrogant you are, you're awesome. But if you don't have the ability, try being arrogant, and you won't even know how you died.

For some reason, a dispute broke out between two tables not far away, and before they knew it, they were drawing their guns and fighting.

In an instant, the once harmonious tavern descended into chaos.

Chairs flew everywhere, bullets flew, swords gleamed, and amidst the rich aroma of wine filling the room, roars of anger filled the air – it was incredibly exciting!

"The place you found isn't very good either."

Holding a takoyaki in one hand and deflecting a flying bench with the other, Ye Chen glared at the three people and one rabbit who remained unfazed.

"It's alright, we're used to it. As long as you don't bother us, it's fine."

She waved her hand, Bai Doudou cheeks slightly flushed, but she remained calm.

Besides Ye Chen's table, which remained very calm, several other tables were the same; no matter how noisy the surroundings were, they remained composed.

Clearly, those who remained unscathed amidst the chaos were not to be trifled with, causing many of the fighters to instinctively stay away from their area.

Suddenly, Ye Chen, holding his wine glass, moved away from his seat and casually sat down in front of someone.

"The Supreme Grade Sword, Black Blade Night, may I take a look?"

Ye Chen stared coldly at the man before him, his expression calm.

"My sword is only drawn when trouble arises." He sipped his wine slowly, his eagle-like eyes sharp as knives.

"Knock knock"

Ye Chen tapped his index finger on the table, producing a series of dull sounds. A strange wave of energy radiated throughout the entire room, causing the previously chaotic hall to become so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

"Dracule Mihawk, bounty of $390 million, do you think prison is a good fit for you?"

"God, Ye Chen, do you think my blade is sharp or not?" Calm and collected, a Sisi sword intent began to silently tear through the wall.

"Hey! Hey! What's going on? That's Hawk-Eye Dracule Mihawk!"

"Who's next to him, daring to provoke the Swordmaster Hawk-Eye?"

"Idiot, that's God, one of the Navy's four monster Vice Admiral."

"Judging by the looks of it, God has his eye on Hawk-Eye. We need to get out of here quickly, or we won't be able to escape if a fight breaks out."
