The Dragon-Slaying Samurai In The Pirate World

When Ryoma entered East Blue and followed some clues from Porusalino's memory, he found Golden Lion Shiki's lair and easily crushed Golden Lion Shiki.

After several days of fermentation.

The world government can no longer suppress what happened on the Sabaody Archipelago. Rumors spread and the sea was in an uproar.

He even had to suppress the heat of Marine's public execution of "Fire Fist" Ace for a while.

The whole sea was boiling.

"The world's greatest swordsman hundreds of years ago is still alive..."

The first half of the Grand Line.

In a very ordinary town.

In recent years, Dracule Mihawk, known as the "World's Greatest Swordsman", held a newspaper in his hand with a strange look on his face.

But he immediately showed his fighting spirit: "Is Shimotsuki Ryoma, the former dragon-slaying samurai, really so strong?"

He knew the strength of Marine Admiral Kizaru very well.

Especially the ability of Logia·Sparkling Fruit, which represents the speed of Ultimate. Often the opponent is hit hard by Porusalino before he can react.

Unexpectedly, one of the most powerful warriors in the Naval Headquarters would die at the hands of Ryoma, which is really unbelievable.

At least, although Hawkeye was confident that he would not lose to Kizaru, he asked himself that he would never be able to directly kill Porusalino.

Unless Kizaru, that slippery, unpredictable guy, fights to the death.

But it would probably take days and nights of fierce fighting to determine the winner.

All along, whenever I hear the name of the legendary "Dragon-Slaying Samurai" Shimotsuki Ryoma, I can't help but recognize that he stands at the top of swordsmen and is the well-deserved world's greatest swordsman!

Now, a character who was thought to have been dead for hundreds of years and reduced to legend has suddenly come back to life.

Mihawk, the newly promoted "World's Greatest Swordsman", if he wants to deserve his title, he must defeat this former legend!

It’s not just a question of the title of the world’s greatest swordsman.

He even wanted to confirm how far away he was from the other party!

"'Hawkeye' Dracule Mihawk..."

On the town's harbor.

A large warship docked there.

The flag belonging to Marine flutters in the wind and makes a hunting sound.

A Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral wearing a Marine justice cloak came over with people.

"I understand why you are here, let's go!" Hawkeye looked calm, as if he had expected it. He stood up and grabbed the gorgeous black knife next to him, put it behind his back, and walked out.

The Naval Headquarters mobilized elites and even summoned the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

In all likelihood, there will be an unimaginable battle with the Whitebeard Pirates.

He felt that the dragon-slaying warrior would not miss such a grand occasion.

Perhaps, there will be a chance to meet on the battlefield.

…

New World.

In some unknown sea area.

Several huge, beluga-shaped pirate ships are undergoing coating operations.

A skull flag with a crescent moon-shaped Whitebeard is extremely eye-catching.

It is announced that this is the pirate ship of the Whitebeard Pirates.

"Gla la la, Shimotsuki Ryoma, the dragon-slaying samurai from hundreds of years ago, the world's greatest swordsman from Wanokuni, unexpectedly came back to life... What a great job!"

The legendary King of the Sea, the man closest to the throne, Whitebeard Edward Newgate bold and grandiose sat there, grabbing a huge wine jar, and kept pouring it into his mouth.

Whitebeard, with its two arms in the shape of a crescent moon, is particularly eye-catching.

There are shocking scars on his tall and muscular body, silently telling of his past glory.

Even though he is already old, even with an infusion tube and a ventilator, that stalwart figure still puts pressure on people and makes people dare not despise him.

"Lord Dragon God..."

Wearing a pink kimono and heart-shaped lipstick on his lips, the man dressed as a geisha was full of excitement and even more unbelievable: "I didn't expect him to be resurrected."

Surprisingly, he is the captain of the 16th Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Izo from the Wanokuni Suzugo area.

For him, who was born in Wanokuni, Shimotsuki Ryoma, the "dragon-slaying samurai" who was worshiped and worshiped by the whole country after his death, can be described as a god-like existence.

I never expected that the legendary Wanokuni patron saint would come back to life after being rumored to have been dead for hundreds of years.

It's incredible.

"Not only did he directly instruct his subordinates to kill those Celestial Dragons on the spot, but he also directly killed Admiral Kizaru of Naval Headquarters. He is worthy of being a legendary figure..."

The captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, the pineapple-headed "Phoenix" Marco, said with a chuckle.

He was secretly relieved.

The death of one of Naval Headquarters' top combatants is undoubtedly good news for them.

In this way, when the Whitebeard Pirates rescue Ace, the pressure they face will be much easier.

"It is said that he has never been defeated in his life. Any enemy, no matter how powerful, will be cut down in the blink of an eye..."

Foil Bista, the captain of the fifth division, held the two swords at his waist tightly, his eyes filled with awe-inspiring passion: "Dragon-slaying samurai, I really want to see his unfathomable swordsmanship!"

As a swordsman, how lucky would it be to be able to fight against the dragon-slaying warrior of the past?

It has nothing to do with the outcome, just to witness the opponent's miraculous swordsmanship that is recognized as standing at the top of the world.

"Dad, that guy Kaido of the Beasts is ready to make a move..."

The captain of the 7th division, Lakoyo, who had dark blond messy hair, a mustache, and a turban, looked at Whitebeard on the main seat and said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid he will take the opportunity to attack us."

"Don't worry about him..."

Throwing away the empty wine jar, Whitebeard wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth carelessly, and said calmly: "If it were at the beginning, maybe he could really cause us some trouble, but now that guy Kaido is probably restless!"

"Let's not talk about what he turned Wanokuni into. I heard that the Shimotsuki clan in the Suzugo area was wiped out by him and Shogun Orochi..." Izou clenched his fists, his eyes red, and said bitterly.

"For this reason alone, I believe that Lord Ryoma will not be able to spare him!"

He was also a retainer of Kozuki Oden, the original shogun of the Kozuki clan and the lord of Kuri.

But later he stayed with the Whitebeard Pirates and did not follow Kozuki Oden aboard the Roger Pirates' ship.

We have already heard about what happened in Wanokuni.

He wished he could kill Orochi, the general who colluded with Kaido of the Beasts and harmed Wanokuni, but in the end he was powerless.

Twenty years ago, Whitebeard had an ominous premonition when he heard that the Beasts Pirates had colluded with Wanokuni's general Orochi to occupy Wanokuni.

He also sent someone to contact Kozuki Oden, who was the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates and had a deep friendship with him, expressing his willingness to take action if necessary.

It's a pity that Lord Oden stubbornly refused Whitebeard's help for some unknown reason and missed the opportunity to eliminate Kaido of the Beasts.

Now Kaido of the Beasts has completely grown up. Together with Whitebeard, he is one of the Four Emperors of the New World. He is also known as "the strongest creature in the sea, land and air" and is an unkillable monster.

Even if their father Whitebeard is willing to take action and directly fight Kaido of the Beasts.

I'm afraid that the other Four Emperors are afraid of the Whitebeard Pirates trying to dominate the New World, so they may not stand by and watch the Beasts Pirates be defeated by the Whitebeard Pirates.

But now, things are different.

That Ryujin-sama was from the Shimotsuki clan, and was even the heir to the daimyo of the Suzugo region.

There was no way he could spare the Shogun Orochi and Kaido of the Beasts who destroyed his family.

Only Izo, who comes from Wanokuni, has a deep understanding of what the name "Dragon-Slaying Samurai" Shimotsuki Ryoma actually means in Wanokuni.

It's incomprehensible to outsiders.

Shimotsuki Ryoma is the patron saint of Wanokuni that has been worshiped and worshiped by the whole country for hundreds of years.

Even every year, the general will lead the daimyo and ministers from various places to the ancestral temple to worship devoutly.

Not to mention its own overwhelming strength.

With its name that has long been deified in Wanokuni.

As long as they raise their arms, Wanokuni and his subordinates may immediately rise up, and maybe even the samurai under General Orochi will betray him directly.
