"Give him these two knives?"
Isuka was completely bewildered.
She just emptied her savings, but the other party still wouldn't sell.
Now that he'd come to his senses, he immediately packed up the two swords.
Is this a joke?
"Old man, I never expected you, such a stingy fellow, to be so generous!"
A stout woman emerged from the back room, also looking surprised.
"Shut up, this is a deal between men!"
Ipponmatsu crossed his arms and, unusually, spoke with a serious expression.
"This is the bond between men, and the dream that swordsmen aspire to. Although I am not a swordsman, I possess the spirit of a swordsman."
"Kid, I know you're not as simple as you seem. In ten or twenty years, you'll definitely be famous throughout the world. These two knives are only worthwhile if they're handed to you. I hope you can accept them."
As he spoke, Ipponmatsu solemnly pushed the twin swords towards Bai Yu.
Isuka, standing nearby, immediately became envious.
Looking at the millions of Beli he had painstakingly accumulated in his hand, and the barely usable sword at his waist.
Indeed, comparing people is pointless, and comparing goods is just asking for trouble.
Seeing the eager Ipponmatsu -matsu's face, Bai Yu helplessly touched the tip of his nose and still took the twin swords.
This achievement exceeded Bai Yu's expectations, but it was ultimately a perfect ending.
However, the moment Bai Yu received the twin swords, his brows furrowed slightly.
" Ensign Isuka, something terrible has happened! There are monsters outside!"
A naval soldier broke in from outside.
Soon, a piercing chirping sound rang out.
Immediately afterwards, through the door behind the naval soldiers, a giant Kamakiri could be seen rapidly swooping down on them.
The twin swords in his hands gleamed with a chilling light that could pierce the soul.
"Careful!"
Isuka's expression changed, and he hurriedly drew his sword and rushed out.
" One Sword Style - Yokozuna!"
Bang!
Isuka's sword clashed instantly with the Kamakiri.
The immense force released caused her expression to change abruptly, and she was sent flying backward.
At the same time, the Kamakiri, three to five meters tall, brought its second curved blade, accompanied by a chilling whooshing sound, slashing straight at you.
Seeing the attack rapidly enlarging in his pupils, Isuka's face turned pale instantly. The sharp pain from the web of his right hand holding the knife prevented him from freeing his hand to defend himself for the time being.
"Two-Sword Warrior - Fierce Tiger!"
Buzz!
Two sharp, piercing sounds of blades rang out instantly.
Zoro got there first, appearing right in front of the Kamakiri.
The next moment, the twin blades unleashed boundless power, instantly colliding with the Kamakiri.
Bang!
The praying Kamakiri flew backward in response.
It slammed heavily against the wall several meters away.
The immense force caused even the thick walls to crack open.
At the same time, a figure swung down, its right foot spinning rapidly, also making a whooshing sound as it stomped on the Kamakiri's head.
Bang!
The Kamakiri's enormous head slammed into the street floor below.
The massive three- or four-meter-tall body crashed heavily to the ground.
After struggling briefly, it eventually fell silent.
"Such powerful swordsmanship and kicking skills! They killed this monster in a single exchange. Who are they?" Isuka was dumbfounded.
The brief exchange just now clearly showed her just how strong and powerful this suddenly appearing Kamakiri monster truly was.
Under normal circumstances, even if it weren't a desperate situation, if she were fully prepared, Isuka would still be confident in slaying this Kamakiri.
She absolutely could not do it so easily.
"Watch out! A huge Masira is charging from over there!"
roar!
Someone exclaimed in surprise.
Soon, a giant Masira, with a burly build and a height of four or five meters, charged rapidly towards Zoro and Sanji, wielding a massive spiked club.
Following closely behind were seven or eight other animals of different kinds.
However, compared to ordinary animals, the strength and size of these monsters completely exceeded the normal range.
Seeing this, Isuka gripped his sword tightly, preparing to strike again.
Bang!
The sound of gunfire, like thunder, rang out without warning.
A streak of red light instantly pierced through the charging Masira.
Immediately, the light crashed down onto the earth behind them.
Boom!
The blast wave surged outwards like a tidal wave.
The monsters that followed closely behind were also blasted away.
However, before these monsters could regroup, dark clouds had already filled the sky above them.
"The next weather forecast is for Raiu!"
Boom!
Thick bolts of lightning, as thick as water snakes, descended from the sky.
In an instant, it completely engulfed seven or eight monsters.
Isuka was a little stunned by the sight of his entire team being wiped out in a single encounter.
The naval soldier who came to report paused, unable to resist asking.
" Ensign Isuka, are they the reinforcements you brought back?"
I?
Isuka paused for a moment, about to shake her head and explain.
Having already spotted Zoro and the others, they quickly walked out.
"Lord Bai Yu, it seems we've arrived just in time."
Zoro sheathed his twin swords and said.
"However, those monsters from earlier seemed a bit strange, I don't know where they came from."
"I think I just saw Smoker rushing towards the docks. The situation there is probably much worse."
"If this continues, I fear it will destroy our ships."
Zoro originally intended to stay on the ship to keep watch.
However, the number of ferocious beasts invading the island is gradually increasing.
Zoro couldn't resist making a move after all.
At the same time, Sanji and the others also rushed here.
"Lord Bai Yu, wasn't my shot pretty good?"
"Lord Bai Yu, don't listen to Carina, my Thunderstorm Tempo is the best!"
Carina, carrying the 98K rifle, and Nami emerged from the shadows.
Looking at the four people who appeared, and recalling what had just happened...
This lineup is absolutely divine, isn't it?
Most importantly, they all addressed the boy in front of them as "adult".
Does that mean these people are all his crew members?
Moreover, the boy in front of them was Bai Yu, whom Smoker had mentioned not long ago as the one who had slashed Ace down with a single blow.
A jumble of thoughts flashed through her mind. Isuka grabbed Bai Yu's arm and asked urgently.
"You... you're Bai Yu one who cleaved Fire Fist Ace?"
