Enel and Herald are not interested in drinking or shopping Castle.
Enel said eagerly, "I, Thunder God, want to go find those Baboons who injured me, Thunder God, and have a discussion again!"
Herald said calmly, "I also want to go around this island and see what those Baboon who can injure Enel look like."
Lin Mo waved his hand to express his casualness.
As for the person on the island who has been injured by Baboon at this moment, Lin Mo knows who it is without even using Observation Haki.
Before Enel and Herald left, Lin Mo thought about it and simply said, "Mind yourselves and don't meddle in other people's affairs."
Enel didn't care whether he understood or not, he just said "I understand" and left.
Herald thought for a moment, then nodded, flapped his wings, and followed the direction Enel flashed.
Chapter 1015 Kāna Island: Challenge
According to the normal plot, the one who appeared in Kuraigana Island's training at this time was Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Shichibukais, who used his Devil Fruit ability to slap Zoro.
Zoro has been in Kuraigana Island for a while. In order to challenge Great Swordsman Hawk-Eye, he must defeat the 'Human Imitators' on this island, who have learned a lot from Hawk-Eye and Swordsmanship's Baboon.
Therefore, every day he continued to challenge those Baboons. At the beginning, he was beaten all the time, and every day the old wounds were not healed but new ones were added.
In this high-intensity sparring, Zoro's endurance and strength have been significantly improved.
In addition, Zoro's own learning ability is very strong, so the further he goes, the more skillful he becomes.
Today, after fighting with the Baboons, when he was dragging his exhausted body and preparing to find a place to rest for a while, since it was relatively close to the coast, when passing through a relatively open place with not dense trees around, the silhouette of the Inkman ship appeared in his sight.
Because he is quite concerned about Lin Mo and his group, he still knows Lin Mo's ship.
"That's...Lin Mo's ship? Am I right?" Zoro was a little unconvinced. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. When he confirmed that he was not dazzled, he immediately became happy.
Although the news of Lin Mo's "death in battle" had appeared in newspapers a long time ago, and Nami told them the news on the ship at that time, except for Luffy and Chopper who believed it, no one else in Straw Hat Pirates believed it.
At that time, both Luffy and Chopper were crying. Fortunately, those two guys were easier to coax, and they were soon settled.
"I knew it." Zoro raised the corner of his mouth slightly, changed direction, and walked in the direction of Inkman.
Because the target ship was clearly right in front of us and it was difficult to get lost, Zoro soon arrived at the coast where Inkman was docked.
There was a rope ladder specially designed for Perona to get on and off the boat. Before the boat was recovered, Zoro climbed up Inkman along the rope ladder.
As soon as he settled on Deck of Inkman, Kaku and Ace, who were responsible for watching the ship, had already discovered him.
"It's you, we met at Alabasta, do you still remember me?" Ace asked with a bared smile.
Zoro looked at him with some confusion. "Oh, you are... Luffy's brother, how come you are on Lin Mo's ship?"
Ace said with a smile, "I am now Crew Member of Lin Mo. Isn't it weird to be on this ship?"
Zoro knows that Ace is Whitebeard Pirates. When he thinks that Whitebeard Pirates has been disbanded, now Ace is joining It's not impossible to join Lin Mo's team, but... based on his understanding of Lin Mo, Lin Mo is not someone who can easily accept others.
I actually received Ace in such a short period of time. It seems that this Ace is really impressive.
Before Zoro could say anything more, Kaku suddenly said, "Captain mentioned this to you before."
Zoro immediately asked curiously, "What did he say about me?"
Kaku thought for a while and replied, "Nothing. When we occasionally chatted, I said you were a road idiot."
Hearing this, Zoro's originally expectant heart suddenly cooled down, and his expression became extremely rich. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. "Ha? Lin Mo, this guy is kidding! How can I be a road fool when I have such a good sense of direction..."
Even though Zoro himself denied it, Kaku still insisted. "Captain can't lie, so you must be a road fool."
Ace next to him burst into laughter. "I see, Zoro, you are a road crazy, hahahahahaha, Lin Mo said so, then you must be."
Zoro's mouth twitched wildly, and he was silent for a long time, then sighed softly, and said helplessly, "Forget it, whatever you say, by the way, where are the Lin Mo people? I remember that there should be more than just you two on your ship, right? Where have the others gone?"
"Where Captain goes has nothing to do with you." Kaku said calmly, "Even if Captain knows you, Inkman not everyone can board the ship. You, get off the ship."
"Kaku, you are too harsh." Ace advised, "Since Lin Mo has mentioned him before, it means that Lin Mo is still very optimistic about Zoro. Just kick him off the ship, okay?"
Kaku said nonchalantly, "What's wrong? Captain won't blame me."
At this time, Zoro suddenly took out his three sabers Wado Ichimonji, Yubashiri and Shusui, holding one in each hand and one in his mouth. He said with great confidence, "I have wanted to fight you for a long time, and finally found an opportunity. You can let me off the ship. If you defeat me, I will get off the ship immediately."
(Note: Although the direction of the plot has changed, Sandai Kitetsu is not used as an opportunity, but due to a strange combination of circumstances, Zoro confronts the Loguetown weapon shop Shopkeeper and his family Fortunately, Shopkeeper saw that Zoro was a Swordsman who knew how to sword, so he reluctantly gave Yubashiri to him. Of course, I made up the plot here myself.
And Shusui was picked up by Zoro from Thriller Bark. In short, driven by fate, this Three Swords returned to Zoro In's hands, because Spandam was already killed by Lin Mo's group when they created Enies Lobby, Yubashiri was not corroded in the subsequent plot.)
For Kaku, Zoro's invitation to fight is nothing more than a painless thing.
But in Ace's view, it is a very dangerous thing.
"The Kaku now is not the Kaku before. He doesn't have a sense of proportion in his fights now. Zoro, don't be impulsive."
"It doesn't matter." Zoro said nonchalantly, "The battle between men, no matter how big or small, must be serious. Ace, this is a battle between me and Kaku. Don't worry about it."
"No." Ace frowned slightly, "Lin Mo will also stop you here. By the way, since you want to compete, you should also compete under fair conditions for both parties. Kaku is fine, but you are injured. This battle is very unfair to you. You should fight another day."
"I'm fine." Zoro became more and more passionate, "I just had a fight with those Baboon, so it just warmed me up. This little injury is nothing."
Ace wanted to break up the fight again, but Kaku glanced at Zoro's Three Swords, and then said indifferently, "This competition is indeed unfair. You have weapons, but I don't."
Just when Ace thought it was rare for Kaku to think clearly and not fight, Kaku suddenly jumped to the side of Inkman's guardrail, moved his hands and feet, and spoke He said easily, "Those Baboon have a lot of swords, I'm going to get some. Captain doesn't like others fighting on Inkman, so go inside Forest."
After saying that, Kaku jumped directly off Inkman.
Zoro responded with a "OK" and then followed Kaku and jumped off the boat full of fighting spirit.
Chapter 1016 Kāna Island: Can't lose
When Ace saw Zoro really running away with Kaku, he immediately chased after him.
When he caught up, Kaku had already obtained two knives from 'Human Imitators'.
Kaku had a fake smile on his face and said lightly, "Come on."
Zoro has always been looking forward to having a fight with Swordsman from the Lin Mo team, so he has been waiting for this day for a long time.
"Okay, then I'm welcome." As he said that, Zoro jumped up, spinning continuously in the air at high speed, using his own Three-Sword Style·Yaksha Crow move, and at the same time, he sent out continuous slashes with Three Swords, attacking Kaku densely.
Although, this attack seems to be as dense as raindrops, for Kaku, who is often trained by Enel with lightning, no matter how dense it is, he can still find gaps to pass through, and appear in front of Zoro at the moment when the attack ends, slashing at Zoro with the two long knives in his hands at the same time.
Zoro reacted in time and used Yubashiri and Shusui to block Kaku's blow.
Just when the two sides seemed to be in a stalemate, Kaku suddenly raised his foot and kicked, and Vacuum Slash brought out by Tempest Kick hit the abdomen of Zoro who was very close at hand.
Zoro was immediately knocked away, knocking down several trees with a 'clang' sound.
When he got up from the debris on the ground, a very long blood mark appeared on his chest.
"It's really a heavy blow. I think I've seen that move you just made somewhere. Forget it, let's continue."
As he spoke, Zoro bit Wado Ichimonji in his mouth again, and held Yubashiri and Shusui with both hands, preparing to continue the attack.
Ace suddenly appeared and stood in front of him.
"Stop it."
Before Ace finished speaking, Zoro ignored his own injuries and still intercepted Ace's words with full of fighting spirit. "As expected of the person recognized by Lin Mo, he is indeed very strong. However, this game has just begun. Come on, continue!"
As for Kaku, the original purpose was to drive Zoro away from Inkman. In fact, the purpose has been achieved now, so for him, the challenge of Zoro is not painful or itchy.
Ace saw that Zoro had no intention of stopping. Originally, he had not planned to take action. In order to prevent the possible tragedy, Ace used his own ability to create a wall of fire, standing directly between Zoro and Kaku.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Zoro asked extremely dissatisfied.
Ace said seriously, "If Kaku were in the same state as before, I would not stop your PK."
"What do you mean?" Zoro hasn't finished speaking yet.
Kaku passed directly through the other side of the fire wall, not caring about Ace who was standing in front of him. With a 'swish', he slashed through Ace's elemental body with a quick and accurate horizontal knife.
If Ace were not Devil Fruit User, this would have been chopped in half.
Zoro saw that Kaku actually cut down Ace. He immediately raised his hand and used Yubashiri and Shusui to quickly resist Kaku's intensive attacks. "Ace is your companion, right? You actually cut him down?"
Kaku said disapprovingly, "He is blocking me."
Zoro couldn't help but frown slightly. "The person who can be recognized by Lin Mo will never look like this. What's wrong with you?"
While saying this, Zoro was resisting the attack while staring into Kaku's eyes.
Even though he mentioned Lin Mo's name, he didn't see the slightest fluctuation in Kaku's eyes.
Although I don't know exactly what happened, something must have happened to this guy.
But Zoro asked, but did not get any answer from Kaku.
Suddenly thinking of something, Zoro asked in surprise, "I remember that the newspaper published the information that you and Lin Mo died in the battle before. Because the 'bodies' of Great Explosion and Lin Mo were not found, so no photos were taken. But when you were 'dead', a photo was taken. Looking at the photo, you really looked dead... So, you were faking your death? No... You were probably using Reject Dial at the time. Using Reject Dial to withstand such a heavy blow, the backlash you suffered is hard to predict."
Because Straw Hat Pirates has been to Sky Island, Zoro knows a little bit about the shellfish at Sky Island.
Kaku ignored Zoro.
Ace said, "Although I was also in Marineford at the time, my situation at the time was not very optimistic. I don't know exactly what happened at Kaku. However, one thing I can be sure of is that it was Lin Mo who made Kaku reappear in front of us."
Ace only boarded the ship after Kaku was resurrected. Enel and others who knew the general situation did not tell him that Kaku had actually died and resurrected. Although Ace had expressed doubts many times, the answer they gave him was that it didn't matter what he was doing as long as he was still alive.
Therefore, Ace actually doesn't know much about Kaku's situation.
Because I have seen Kaku kill many people without blinking an eye, and now he is also killing them, plus Zoro is an important partner of his 'brother' Luffy.
No matter what, Ace cannot let Kaku continue to fight Zoro in his current state.
Although Zoro doesn't know exactly what happened, judging from Ace's seriousness and Kaku's current state, it is indeed not a wise choice to continue fighting.
Without much hesitation, Zoro immediately said, "Okay, I won't fight you. This competition is over."
However, Zoro's initiative to persuade him to make peace was not taken seriously by Kaku, and Kaku's attacks did not decrease at all.
"Kaku!" Zoro pushed Kaku out with force, "I won't fight!"
Kaku took a few steps back, and after he stood still, he still had no intention of ending. "Since it has begun, there must be a victory or defeat. I have sworn that I will never lose again. I must beat you!"
After finishing speaking, Kaku's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Zoro accurately captured the murderous look in Kaku's eyes. "Do you really want to kill me?"
Kaku said nothing and continued to attack Zoro.
Ace had no choice but to stand in front of Kaku again. Since it didn't make sense, he had no choice but to take action and knock Kaku unconscious first.
However, the moment Ace appeared in front of Kaku, almost at the same time, Kaku took out a Seastone Net Gun very quickly, and shot Ace before Ace could react.
Before Ace could run away, it was completely covered by the mesh bag filled with Seastone.
Ace lost his strength instantly.
Kaku kicked him aside and continued to fight Zoro.
The exchange of moves between the two was extremely fast, and they had already fought dozens of rounds in the blink of an eye.
It seems that the gap between the two is very small, almost evenly matched.
Zoro also tried to use the sword moves he learned on Kuraigana Island during this period to deal with Kaku, but what made him very helpless was that it seemed that the gap between him and Kaku was not big, but Kaku could easily follow all his attacks!
Just when Zoro was about to open up and continue to use new tricks to deal with Kaku.
Kaku suddenly thought of something, and with full aura, he struck Zoro to the ground with a faster speed, then pointed the two knives in his hands downwards and stabbed Zoro in the chest without hesitation.
Zoro used Wado Ichimonji that was bitten in his mouth to block the tips of Kaku's two knives, forcibly avoiding the danger of being disemboweled. Then he used Shusui and Yubashiri to forcefully knock the two knives out of Kaku's hands.
Just as the two knives in Kaku's hands were knocked away, Kaku immediately took out the knife hidden in Tool Bag and wiped it on Zoro's neck without hesitation.
When Zoro saw that Kaku really wanted to kill him, he didn't care about anything else and directly slashed at Kaku with Shusui and Yubashiri.
Kaku turned sideways to avoid Zoro's blow, which also caused the knife originally pointed at Zoro's neck to change direction, and with a 'click', a large gash was made on Zoro's left eye.
Blood immediately flowed down Zoro's left eye.
Kaku, on the other hand, acted like a normal person and did not continue to fight. Instead, he changed direction and immediately ran towards Inkman.
Just now, he suddenly remembered that Kitchen was still stewed with chicken soup prepared for Lin Mo.
Chapter 1017 Kāna Island: Are you normal?
Zoro's left eye began to bleed after being scratched by Kaku.
"How are you?" Ace immediately stepped forward to check Zoro's injuries.
