Ding ding ding!
On the sea, there is a person, a skeleton, and two swords.
The collision of metal swords plays a unique symphony.
Unfortunately....
The concert ended prematurely without reaching its climax.
"Tch! You're so weak, I guess you won't be able to meet the Director's requirements even if I give you three years!"
A disdainful smile appeared on the corner of Shiliu's mouth.
Then he fished out the skeleton swordsman from the sea.
This is the third time he has fished for someone this afternoon!
"Woooo! I almost suffocated to death. Hey, I'm a skeleton. I don't seem to need to breathe!"
Sea water flowed out from the cracks in the bones of the skeleton swordsman.
Brooke quickly regained consciousness and laughed at himself.
Immediately afterwards, he was carried by Shiliu and thrown back to the Boulder.
"Director, do you want to continue?"
Facing Lukar who was sitting on the deck watching the show, Shiliu's tone suddenly became more respectful.
He knew very well who he could offend and who he couldn't afford to offend.
"Well, Brooke, don't you need milk to nourish your bones? Drink this bucket of milk before continuing!" Lukar pointed to the one-meter-high wooden bucket on the nail plate.
Brooke suddenly became anxious: "Director Lukar, this is wrong. Didn't you drink milk until night before? Why did it come earlier this time? It couldn't be..."
"Yes, you guessed it right. Practice extra tonight and prepare yourself. The new guest is very interested in you. He has reserved your time for the evening!"
"Nani!"
Brooke was shocked when he heard the bad news.
Even in the empty skull eyes, you can see his fearful look.
"Director, can you forget it? Night is the time for rest. In the morning, I have Ms. Fiona, and in the afternoon, I have Mr. Shiliu for training. I think this time is enough during the day, and there is no need for additional training!" Brooke shook his head wildly and refused.
Ever since he agreed to the second choice, he would grow to a strength that Lukar was satisfied with within a year and become the King of the Shichibukai.
But I didn't expect...
Lukar imposed his spiritual plan.
There is no free day, the daily sparring schedule is full, and various trainings need to be added at any time!
This was a devilish training that he had never encountered before when he went to sea as a pirate.
Only then did Brooke understand why Miss Robin often called her teacher a tyrant in private and had a lot of complaints about Lukar's training methods.
"Rejection is invalid. You can have so many outstanding swordsmen as your sparring partner. Others who want to have this opportunity don't have this opportunity!"
"If you don't seize such an opportunity, don't blame me for throwing you into the Impel Down City if you fail to meet the standards!"
"A man spits and nails! Even if you are a skeleton, you are still a male skeleton! Now that you have decided on the second choice, then fight to the death to fulfill your promise!"
"Either...you meet my standards in advance and get out! Or...be an honest prisoner. Anyway, don't think about other personal lives during this year. Becoming stronger is your only way. !”
Lukar's attitude was very tough.
Tell Brooke in various ways, don’t think too much and practice more quickly!
Brooke was on the verge of tears: "But... Director, you didn't tell me where the standard line is? What kind of strength do you need me to achieve?"
"Ha! My eyes are the standard, unless...you can chop me to death with one knife!" A hint of disdain appeared on the corner of Lukar's mouth, "Hurry up and practice more, so that you can drink less sea water in the future!"
"Shiliu!"
"Yes, Director!"
"Didn't you hear? Brooke hasn't had enough of the sea water yet, and he's already impatient!"
"Sorry, it's my fault, Director, I will satisfy him immediately!"
Shiliu understood what Lukar meant, and without giving Brooke a chance to speak again, he rushed towards the sea again.
in the air.
Brooke's skull eyes showed a hint of confusion.
When did I ever say this?
Regardless of whether he said it or not, fifteen minutes later, a wet Brooke, carrying a fishy smell of sea water, was thrown onto the Rock again.
"Haha, Brooke, do you want to drink milk? There are already cracks in your bones. If you try it again, Shiliu may be able to chop it into pieces~"
Looks like a devil's smile.
Brooke yelled desperately.
"I drink!!!"
Lukar looked at this scene with a smile.
I don't know if it was the training method during this period that was good, or Brooke's talent as a swordsman.
In just these few days.
Brooke is much stronger than before, and has even reached the threshold of armed domineering. His swordsmanship is several times sharper than when he first got on the ship.
But Lukar certainly thinks so.
All of this is due to the high-pressure training method that he is best at.
And it's not just about promoting Brooke either.
As sparring partners, Fiona and Shiliu also improved their swordsmanship through such intense sparring.
For example, Shiliu said she was disgusted, but she never mentioned to Lukar that she didn't want to continue to be a sparring partner.
Apparently he felt it too.
This method of cutting people and improving your own swordsmanship is not bad.
Until nightfall.
Brooke had only rested for an hour when he saw a man carrying a black machete walking out, followed by a pink follower.
Lukar curled his lips when he saw this.
She silently decided in her heart that she should let Perona spend a childhood full of struggle!
"Hohohoho! The world's greatest swordsman, I'm so lucky!"
Brooke had been complaining before, but seeing Mihawk's sharp aura like a knife, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
After all, they are all swordsmen, and the pursuit of swordsmanship does not distinguish between strong and weak.
Mihawk showed a faint smile: "I am also very lucky to meet a swordsman like you."
On the sea.
A sword duel out of interest began under the moonlight.
"Wow, Uncle Mihawk is so awesome! Defeat that lecherous skeleton!"
"Damn it, I almost won the fight!"
Listen to the crisp loli sound in your ears.
There was a trace of disdain on the corner of Lukar's mouth: "Tsk, this waterproof thing can release a piece of water in the East China Sea. Mihawk is really interested in playing for so long!"
The battle obviously took less than a few minutes.
However, Mihawk forcefully delayed it for more than ten minutes before it ended. He forced Brooke to show all his sword skills, and then slightly increased his strength to defeat him.
This performance is not even as good as Shiliu!
"Well...."
Perona was about to retort, but when she saw the teacher's serious face, she immediately shut her mouth!
"Tch! Perona, remember to go to bed early. You will also start training tomorrow. If you oversleep and are late, your training will be doubled tomorrow!"
Lukar didn't want to watch Mihawk continue playing. After giving instructions to Perona, he walked into the cabin with an unhappy expression.
…
Days at sea are boring and repetitive.
But for people like Lukar, who are frequent visitors to the sea, they are used to it, and they also had the pleasure of watching Brooke get beaten recently, so it was not too boring.
As time goes by slowly.
The Boulder finally arrived at the next location.
A large island known as the Grand Line, Sentin Island.
At the bow of the ship.
Robin reported seriously: "Teacher, this Shengting Island is very large, and there is a world government affiliated country on the island, the Kingdom of Alabasta.
This kingdom has a very long history. According to some information from Lieutenant General Nishizawa, the kings of this kingdom once had the opportunity to become world nobles, but for some unknown reason chose to leave the Holy Land and choose to stay on this island. "
Without Caesar around, Robin became Lukar's exclusive secretary.
Lukar nodded. Looking at his confused eyes, he didn't know whether he heard it or not.
"Okay, I understand. Robin, Barrett, you two, come with me. The rest will stay on the Boulder and wait. Mihawk, do you want to come with me to meet your colleagues?"
"Sand crocodile? Then let's go and see it together!"
Mihawk nodded.
Port office.
There are some kingdom soldiers standing guard. After all, this is a unified country with relatively complete systems in all aspects.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
When they saw the Navy warship, the soldiers immediately waved their flags, signaling the Rock to dock at its exclusive location.
Apparently, their king had a clear system for how to deal with the arrival of the navy.
When the four Lukars got off the boat, soldiers came to greet them.
"Hello, Navy man, I am Ike, the port director of the Kingdom of Alabasta. What are you doing with your visit to the kingdom?"
A man with dark skin asked.
Robin explained: "We are here to find someone who will not interfere in the internal affairs of your kingdom. We will leave after finishing the work!"
"Looking for someone? Can you tell me who you are looking for? If possible, I will..."
"I won't bother you, we know where the other person is!" Robin refused with a smile.
"Oh well...."
Ike finally chose to let him go, but his eyes were always fixed on Mihawk.
Your Majesty Shichibukai!
This identity was the main reason why he came here specifically for interrogation.
It's interesting to say that Ike didn't recognize the identities of Lukar and others, but he only recognized the most popular King Shichibukai this year.
After Lukar and others left.
He immediately reported to his superiors.
"His Majesty the Shichibukai, Hawkeye appears here, accompanied by a few unknown marines. However, I think these people have an unusual aura. They should be important figures in the navy!"
"Characteristics? Doesn't it count as being extremely tall? One of the leaders looks like he has a Chinese character face. Yes, there is also that warship with paintings of mountains and rocks carved on the hull!"
Following Ike's report, the information about Lukal's appearance immediately caused shock in the entire Kingdom of Alabasta!
Just because Ike couldn't recognize him didn't mean that the entire kingdom's top brass couldn't recognize him.
Although Lukar has been silent and hidden for ten years, his reputation ten years ago was one of the most ferocious in the sea!
What's more, this is a member country of the World Government!
Knowing that the director of the Impel City Prison appears in his own country, he is still a very terrifying and strong man, can you not panic?
