An hour later, south of Vera Island.
The revolutionary army's ship gradually sailed away. Long stood at the stern, thinking about what Ji Xing had said to him before, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.
To be honest, he still doesn't think it's true until now. Who would have thought that Dunant Innsbadry, who held Marie Joa's hand and freed the slaves, would be the same person as the world's greatest swordsman, Hollow?
He even dared to break into Mariejoia without even using a sword, but he was still able to defeat Commander Sora and seriously injure Admiral Kizaru. What's more important is that he is only 20 years old. If he is a middle-aged man, he has such an accumulation. There is some rationality, and he...has mastered everything since before he was born?
But precisely because of this, no one would think that these two people are the same person...
Upon seeing this, a soldier from the Revolutionary Army approached and asked with some expectation: "Chief, was your invitation to that person successful or..."
"Failed." Long regained consciousness and said.
"Is it true..." The Revolutionary Army soldier said with unconcealed disappointment: "It's better to look for traces of the blasphemer. It's more reliable to invite him."
The strange meaning in Long Yan's eyes flashed away, and he nodded and said: "For the next period of time, we will temporarily cancel most of our activities in various places, and focus on looking for traces of the blasphemers."
"...Cancel the event?"
"The two Four Emperors were defeated, and the Blasphemer and Holo became famous one after another. I can feel that the world has reached a point of change." Long said calmly: "I need more time to see clearly what the revolutionary army will do next. Everyone has worked hard on the way down, so take some rest and come to the headquarters in batches for certain special training."
"Is this so...I understand, leader, where do we want to start..."
Long responded, but what echoed in his mind were Ji Xing's previous words: 'If the world government suddenly collapses, are you confident that the sea will calm down as quickly as possible? Are you confident that you can make life better for all races and nations? Do you have the confidence not to become another world government? '
The dragons asked themselves, not having much confidence.
But he heard an astonishing plan from Ji Xing's questions and saw the dawn of revolution. He had to cultivate and find confidence even if he didn't have confidence!
…
"Of course I refused."
On the other side, Ji Xing, who had seen off the revolutionary army, welcomed Kizaru, "This is not the first time we have met, General Kizaru, you know me. I didn't even join the Red Haired Pirates. If you don’t want to get too involved in the battle in the country, how could you possibly join the revolutionary army?”
Kizaru, who was meeting Ji Xing for the third time but only thought it was the second time, looked at Ji Xing who was smiling in front of him. His mood was slightly different, but his expression and tone were still the same as before.
"Well~ The world's greatest swordsman, I believe you will not join the revolutionary army, but my opinion is not that important~ The five elder stars of the World Government are going to speak to you in person. Do you need to prepare in advance how to explain to them?"
"Explain...there's nothing to explain, right?" Ji Xing smiled and said, "Now?"
Kizaru took out the phone bug.
"That's the anti-phone bug."
"Oh~ I made a mistake again~"
The correct phone number was quickly connected, and Sengoku's voice came from the other side: "Kizaru... no, is it Holo? I'm Sengoku."
"Marshal of the Warring States Period." Ji Xing responded: "Didn't you say that Wulaoxing wanted to talk to me personally?"
"Ah, I am in the holy land of Mary Joa. The next person to talk to you is the Supreme Ruler of the World Government, Lord Golibacho, one of the Five Elder Stars.
In addition, although I am two and a half days late, I still want to apologize to you for the negligence of the Navy and the World Government. They did not notice in advance that the two Yonko left the New World, which put you in danger. "
"Aren't they the ones in danger?"
In Holy Land Marie Joa, Sengoku's expression was stagnant and he smiled: "Yes, they are the ones who are in danger. Until now, I still can't believe that you can defeat the two of them by yourself!
Okay, I will hand over the phone bug to Saint Goribachio... Well, be mentally prepared. Saint Goribachio will ask you some questions, but you are free to choose whether to answer them. "
The fat old man with a bald head and a white beard took the phone call and glanced at Seng Guo. Seng Guo had been a bit rebellious recently. He was reminding the other party of something overtly and covertly. Should he prepare to replace him?
Looking at the four people around him, he said to the phone bug: "Holo, I have heard of your name a long time ago. It was me who promoted you from Xiaochao Village Sheriff to Chaochao Island Chief Sheriff. Arrangement. First of all, congratulations on your victory in the battle against two pirate emperors."
"Hello, Holy Goribajo." Ji Xing replied: "Thank you for giving me the promotion."
……that's all?
Talking about old friendships first, and then congratulations. As a Celestial Dragon, Saint Goriba Qiao was already very relieved, but the attitude of the other party was more calm than he expected.
After a pause of three seconds, he said in a deep voice: "As the Warring States Period said, I have a few questions to ask you. You had private contact with one of the most vicious criminals in the world, the Revolutionary Army Dragon, right? Did he invite you to join the Revolutionary Army?"
"It was invited, but I didn't agree. I don't like the behavior of the revolutionary army. I also warned him by the way. Forget it if he didn't see it. If I encounter the revolutionary army causing trouble in some countries, I will not show mercy." Ji Xing said.
In line with his previous performance... Golibaqiao Sheng thought for a moment and said: "Then why were you unwilling to cooperate with the dark horse Tiancheng to capture the revolutionary army dragon? Stop using the dragon's strength as an excuse. The dragon will not be stronger than two seamen. The thief emperor is stronger."
"Why should I cooperate?" Ji Xing asked in surprise from the other side: "I am just the police officer of Tidal Island. Outside of Tidal Island, I am free to move, right? If I encounter a criminal, I will arrest him. I also met Hong before. Hair, white beard..."
"These are two concepts!" St. Goriba Qiao interrupted with a louder voice. He paused for another three seconds, saw the gestures made by several other people, and said: "Forget it, let this matter go away for now. You said you just Sheriff of Tidal Island, if the world government wants to give you greater responsibilities, are you willing to take it on?"
"I don't want to."
"..."
Don't think about it for a second?
Golibaqiao Sheng took a deep breath, his eyes calmed down a little, and said: "Jolo, let me ask again, did you really not join the revolutionary army?"
"No." Ji Xing replied: "But there are some things I can say directly. Long described a lot of 'the dark side of this world' when he persuaded me.
I don't believe everything and I won't believe it completely. Crocodile and Doflamingo also make me have some doubts about the World Government that launched the Shichibukai policy. I do not like the actions of the Revolutionary Army, but this does not mean that I like the World Government, so it is enough for me to be a Tide Island Sheriff. I have no intention of joining the World Government or the Navy. "
Saint Goriba Qiao fell silent and exchanged glances with the other four people, while Sengoku let out a sigh of feeling.
Straightforward and self-centered.
This might make the Five Old Stars unhappy, but Warring States felt that it would not be a big problem. Even the Five Old Stars would not provoke a man of that strength just because they disliked him.
On the contrary, if he is secretive, respectful and secretive on the surface, he is more likely to arouse fear and suspicion, and even take action and target.
Sure enough, after some tacit eye contact, Holy Goriba Qiao just snorted: "Young man, don't become frivolous when you have some strength. This world is broader than you think. There is no world government and Tianlong people. , this world would have fallen into destruction long ago.
Forget it, since you have no intention of promotion and we won't force you, then... Let's move on to the next question. You grew up in Xiaochao Village on Tide Island, but why did you never show great power before you were 18 years old? According to the information, it was only six months after you served as a guard in Xiaochao Village that you showed something unusual for the first time. "
"Well... there is no comparison. I didn't know how strong I was at one time. It was only after I fought with Hawkeye once that I realized that my strength was pretty good." Ji Xing replied: "So I was more cautious before. "
"..." Saint Goribachio was silent and continued to ask.
There is no need to elaborate on the following conversation. The first conversation between Ji Xing and Wu Laoxing ended peacefully.
On Vera Island, Ji Xing returned the hung-up phone bug to Kizaru. Kizaru sighed: "It's so scary~ He is worthy of being the newly promoted strongest in the world. Facing the supreme power of the world government, Mr. Wu Laoxing, he also So cold and direct."
"I'm really indifferent, I should not even make a call." Ji Xing smiled and said: "It seems calm and calm, but in fact I am very nervous."
"Stop lying~"
"Hahaha... Admiral Kizaru, is the Navy warship escorting Kaido arriving soon? Do you mind if I take a ride?"
…
A few days later.
After Wu Laoxing communicated with Ji Xing, Morgans finally got the agreement and couldn't wait. He sent out all the news birds to release the biggest news as quickly as possible.
'One against two! The new world is the strongest! '
'The two pirate emperors were defeated! One person escaped with serious injuries, and one person was detained by the navy! '
'The world situation has changed dramatically! '
The news that Ji Xing defeated two pirate emperors one against two spread rapidly throughout the sea area with no less impact than the previous blasphemy when the blasphemers came to the Holy Land Mariejoia to massacre the Celestial Dragons!
Shocked everyone for a hundred years.
The pirates and navy were shocked by how powerful he was, one against two. The ordinary people were shocked and even more excited and happy. They only hoped that there would be more people like the Blasphemer and the world's greatest swordsman, Holo, to make the world a better place. More peaceful and stable.
New World, Ten Thousand Kingdoms, Cake Island.
There was deathly silence in Big Mom's castle. Katakuri was holding the newspaper tightly with some uncertainty, and the rest of them had fear on their faces.
Ten days ago, my mother went out riding Kaido and disappeared, but she was seriously injured and unconscious a week ago and was carried back by Zeus. Later, Zeus also fell into silence due to excessive consumption and damage, so that they were still unclear about what happened, and they were once suspicious. Mom and Kaido found a place to fight.
Never thought it would be like this.
"It's fake, right? The Navy's newspaper must be exaggerated!"
"Yeah, someone else must have intervened!"
"It must be a conspiracy of the navy!"
Katakuri looked at his restless younger brothers and sisters chattering away, but he knew in his heart that this matter would probably not be a fluke.
The invincible mother meets an even more invincible man, shattering her halo. This may be an opportunity to get everyone out of the shadow of her mother.
He thought back to the 'Jolo Ji Xing' who gave him this idea two and a half years ago, and then looked at the 'Jolo' in the newspaper, and felt that this was really a weird fate... Was it God's arrangement?
…
Mobidi.
"Ku la la la la - that little swordsman who came with the red hair..." Whitebeard's laughter contained a little more sadness and memories. Such an amazing talent reminded him of his former captain. The man named Rocks.
Next to him, Marco was even more silent. After a while, he said, "Dad, I've seen that guy before. Is this newspaper... really not exaggerated?"
"What, Marco, don't you want to admit that there might be someone more powerful than dad?"
"No, but..."
"Ku la la la... I am already a remnant of the old era." Whitebeard said with a smile: "If there is no man who surpasses me and Roger in the new era, this sea will be boring!"
He grabbed the newspaper and read it again, and felt a little strange in his heart. It was not that he questioned the authenticity of the news, but that... it shouldn't be him. The man Roger was talking about shouldn't be him, he is not D...
never mind. Whitebeard temporarily dispelled his doubts and looked up at Yamato who popped up in the corner. His casserole-sized fists clenched reflexively.
…
Redhead territory.
'According to Holo, who had been practicing silently on the island, he didn't know how powerful he was until he met Hawkeye Mihawk, the former world's greatest swordsman...'
Reading this paragraph in the newspaper, the red-haired man laughed loudly: "As expected of Holo, I can imagine his tone when he said this."
The cadres also thought of it and burst into laughter: "Speaking of which... it's really scary."
"Being able to defeat Kaido and Big Mom, does that mean he can also defeat the two bosses?"
"Maybe we can hit three?"
"Hey, have some faith in the boss, two and a half is the most!"
"Hey, hey, you guys." The red-haired man shook his head helplessly and smiled again: "It's really amazing. Get ready to set sail! Go to the Grand Line to find the newly promoted World's Strongest Man and ask him to buy us a drink!"
"oh--"
The atmosphere was jubilant.
'I don't know what Hawkeye's reaction will be when he sees the news. 'The redhead thought.
…
Hawkeye had no reaction.
Bonnie reacted greatly.
On a certain island in the South China Sea, a woman with a big stomach pointed at the newspaper with an exaggerated expression: "Hey, can't you?! He barely managed to beat you with one move before we parted ways, but now...could it be that you, too..."
"It was my swordsmanship that defeated me in one move. If it were a real battle, I would have been no match for him a year ago." Watching Ji Xing improve step by step, he is most accepting of Ji Xing's record. That is completely outrageous!
…
On another island in the South China Sea, Eustace Kidd, a cute new pirate with a red hedgehog head who had just gone to sea, crumpled the newspaper into a ball with a grin: "Is it the strongest in the world? The Grand Line Tidal Island, then it's decided, enter Go there first after the Grand Line!”
On a small island in the East China Sea, a green algae-headed pirate hunter who had also just left the sea stared at the words 'The World's Greatest Swordsman' with a light in his eyes.
"Isn't he Hawkeye Mihawk anymore? He has a clear address, so it's easier to find him this time!"
On Cocoa West Island in the East China Sea, Nami stared at the man's photo in the newspaper with wide eyes, as if she saw Bailey: "I found you!"
On a certain island in the West Sea, Capone Becky, who was holding a cigar in Godfather Wind, exhaled a puff of smoke, put the newspaper into the body castle, and asked his younger brother to pass it around.
"The Sheriff of the Tidal Islands of the Grand Line? This kind of guy should stay far away."
The mobile kingdom of the North Sea, Germa 66.
Leader Kaji stared at the newspaper and couldn't help but feel excited: "One against two, defeated two monsters?! This guy's blood factor must be different from others. If you can get it..."
…
…
Some people read the newspaper with pure admiration.
Some want to challenge and become famous.
There are those with evil intentions.
There are also those who simply want to experience things.
There are many different shapes and forms.
Different from the 'Unknown Swordsman', it would be a joke to use 'Unknown Swordsman' after defeating two Yonko one against two. Holo, the world's greatest swordsman and the strongest man, not only He is famous, and once he becomes famous, he becomes famous all over the world!
This news expanded at an alarming speed, bringing various impacts to the entire sea. The first place to become confused was the tidal islands.
The residents on the island also read the newspaper, and they were dumbfounded after reading it, Holo? Which Holo?
Win the Yonko? Which Yonko? two?
This newspaper...why can't people understand it?
Abe and others are busy. Not only do they have to receive inquiries from different people every day, but they also have to be strictly vigilant about everyone who lands on the island.
Fortunately, this kind of life only lasted for three days. Abe's loud, high-pitched voice rang out in Xiaochao Village: "Boss! You're back!"
