Today, although he is not as strong as Allen, Mihawk's heart knot has been resolved.

It's natural to feel uncomfortable when you lose a battle, but if you've been mentally prepared from the beginning, it's not unacceptable.

As for the awareness of death that he said at the beginning, Mihawk had already forgotten about it.

If it was just a simple sword duel, it is impossible to say that if the two of them fight, it is really possible to decide whether to live or die. Of course, he is more likely to die. But in this case, it is obvious that he is being sanctioned unilaterally. If he dies like this

That's too much of a loss, and it's something a wise man wouldn't do.

Mihawk has decided to devote his whole life to the way of swordsmanship. Even if he dies, he must die on this path.

Allen curled his lips and sheathed the knife.

Since Hawkeye has admitted defeat, there is naturally no need to continue the fight. Several years have passed since the last time he met Hawkeye. The future world's greatest swordsman has a talent in swordsmanship that few people can match.

and.

Yao recalled that when they first met, Mihawk's swordsmanship was much inferior to his own. In just a few years, he had already caught up with him, although this was due to Allen's focus on domineering, fruit abilities, etc.

The reason is related.

You must know that Allen is blessed by various experiences and medicines obtained from lottery draws, and the effect of training has always been far superior to ordinary people. Mihawk's ability to catch up is due to pure talent.

"You came to me to challenge, aren't you afraid that after the news of your failure spreads, the World Government will deprive you of your position as the King of the Shichibukai?" Allen looked at Hawkeye and asked.

Mihawk's injuries were not serious, but he was able to endure it. After all, he had challenged others all the time and was not beaten to death because of his strong strength and his ability to resist beatings.

He said: "For me, this position is just to avoid trouble. Even if the World Government takes it back, it will have no impact on me. Besides, based on your current status in the navy and your past record, I will lose to you."

It's a normal thing. If I win, it will be great news for you."

Allen couldn't help but look sideways.

Hi Mihawk, I didn’t expect you with thick eyebrows and big eyes to compliment others. Not bad, very good. Please increase your efforts.

"Since you are so good at talking, why not say more."

"What kind of talking is this?" Mihawk frowned, he was just telling the truth, "What I said is just the truth. Even Roger was defeated by you, and the Golden Lion was captured in the past by you.

Thanks to your credit, Barrett, who once caused countless waves in the New World, was also imprisoned by you. With such a record, it is natural for you to win. I challenge you just to break the fear in my heart, not to defeat you."

Allen was very helpful. Although what Mihawk said was true, different words would have different feelings if they were spoken by different people.

If Bucky, who had always been very complimentary to him, said this, it wouldn't have such an effect.

For example, if a colleague or classmate of yours who has always been inferior to you praises you, you may not feel anything wrong, even if what he says is all the truth, but if it is a praise from someone who is in a similar position to you, you may

It will be very useful, even if it is the same truth.

"Since you are so kind, let this challenge go. I won't argue with you. Let the past be the same," he said.

Mihawk's mind is full of questions, what happened in the past?

Naturally, he didn't know Allen's pettiness. Mihawk had seriously injured Gion back then. Allen had always remembered this in his mind. This time the injury to Hawkeye might not have been intentional on Allen's part.

When it comes to holding grudges, Allen has never been weak.

…

…

The battle between Mihawk and Allen did not cause any waves in the sea. Firstly, because neither of them publicized it. Secondly, even though Mihawk is now famous in the sea, he is still inferior to Allen.

More or less, as he said, his defeat is just a normal thing, and only his victory can be considered big news.

After the battle, Mihawk did not stay. After briefly treating his injuries, he disappeared into the sea again.

Although this battle solved the knot in his heart, a new problem appeared before him.

That is, in terms of hard power, he is still far behind. In a life-and-death battle, it is impossible for others to fight him with only swords. His understanding of fruit abilities is still very shallow, and the battle with Allen also exposed this.

If you want to continue to improve your strength, you must not only continue to hone your swordsmanship, but also develop your experience in facing this ability.

This won't happen overnight, he still has a long way to go.

After Mihawk left, Allen took his warship directly back to the Navy headquarters.

It is obvious that the guy with the Golden Lion is temporarily dormant for his plan. With the ability of Piaopiao Fruit, Allen will not only need to spend a lot of time to find him, but also need a certain amount of luck.

It's easy to talk about other things, but when it comes to luck, it's not Allen's fault. Everyone has one, and compared with him, he is simply at the level of a biological father.

Even if there is Bucky, the legendary overlord of luck, on his ship now, it is still nonsense. After all, when Allen was on Roger's ship, he also proved that his luck was so bad that no one could match him.

Bucky, who has not yet grown up, has no way of affecting Allen at all.

After a long time in Malinfando, Allen appeared here again, but in this place, sometimes you can't feel the change of time at all. It seems that in five, ten, or even twenty or thirty years, this place will still be the same place.

appearance.

The navy ships passing by do not seem to have changed much. The only change is that there are many new faces here.

More than a year has passed since the Navy's recruitment campaign. This period of time has been enough for some people to grow up. Although they will not be able to stand alone, they will also start to make a name for themselves in the headquarters.

However, Allen had already understood before that even if the scale of this world conscription was very large, there would be many good prospects, but there would be none at the level of monsters like the three future generals.

In fact, this is quite normal. In the hundreds of years of history of the Navy, the only record of three top natural elements at once is now.

On the contrary, hundreds of years ago, a general in the Navy ate the Thunder Fruit. At that time, it almost silenced the voices of all pirates.

As for now.

Allen is the most handsome boy in the entire Navy Headquarters. He almost stands out, and the three natural elements are overshadowed by him.

As usual, he attracted the admiring eyes of all the soldiers as soon as he appeared. He had long been accustomed to this, and of course it was very satisfying.

When the little white-haired Smog came here for the first time, everything he saw was very new, especially seeing all kinds of envious looks made this somewhat precocious boy understand how lucky he was to be with Allen.

At the same time, this also put a lot of pressure on him.

As a soldier next to Allen, he should be the most elite soldier in the entire navy. He has already made up his mind to work harder when training again.

The person who shared his thoughts was naturally a certain red-nosed person.

At this moment, Bucky's inner thoughts were completely different. He was indifferent to the gazes of these soldiers. After all, when he was on Roger's ship, he was the center of everyone's attention wherever he went.

He was now staring closely at the tower with the huge navy logo and the huge plaque on it, feeling secretly happy.

Who would have thought that the great Uncle Bucky, who was once a member of Pirate King Roger's ship, would suddenly transform into a glorious navy!

It would be very, very interesting if his identity as a former crew member on Roger's ship was revealed now.

Of course, this idea was instantly killed by Bucky as soon as it occurred to him. He has always been a very conscientious character, and he would never do such a death-seeking thing.

However, he thought of another thing. If that bastard Shanks became a pirate, his expression would be very, very wonderful when he saw himself as a marine.

Just thinking about it, Bucky couldn't wait to see Shanks.

Unfortunately, this is unrealistic. Brother Allen has already said that after returning to the headquarters this time, he will be thrown into the boot camp for one year of training. This makes Bucky very unhappy, but it can't change anything.

He could only take it one step at a time and wait until the actual training to see if there was any way to avoid it.

Rosinandi is in another situation. He has lived in the Navy Headquarters longer than Allen and is extremely familiar with this place. It can be said that there will be no problem at all even if he walks with his eyes closed.

This is his home court. After arriving here, both Red Nose and Little White Hair must listen to him.

"Have you never seen this place? Follow me and I will show you how different Malinvando is. This is the most powerful place in the world."

For Rocinante, his feelings for the Navy Headquarters are much stronger than that of Marigio. In the past, when he was a Celestial Dragon, he was still young, and with the success of his parents' education, there was no time to turn into the trash like Marigio.

With the appearance of a Celestial Dragon, he naturally has no sense of belonging there.

In his heart, Malinfando is his home, where he has his relatives, friends, and everything he has.

Bucky subconsciously retorted: "Besides, it's just the Navy Headquarters, what's so big about it." The voice was a little loud, and it attracted the attention of many people at once, which made Bucky instantly frightened, shrinking his neck and not daring to be there.

Talk more.

Allen didn't care about the three of them. With Rosinandi there, there would be no problem. The others went straight to the tower that symbolized the headquarters.

After coming back, he was going to see Marshal Kong and report to him how he traced the Golden Lion's whereabouts.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Allen walked to the marshal's office, he heard loud scoldings coming from inside. The sound reached his ears, making Allen's expression become a little subtle.

Now it's really interesting.

…

…

"Kuzan, look at what you are like now. In the past, you were always full of passion and very active in everything you did. What about now? If you are not given a task, you will never ask for it. Even if you are given a task, you will never take the initiative to ask for it.

When it comes to your head, you are not as neatly finished as you used to be. I heard the soldiers say that you were sleeping a lot of the time. What does that sound like! You know Kuzan, I have always admired you very much.

, but now, you have disappointed me, very disappointed!"

"I'm sorry, Marshal Kong, I failed to live up to your expectations."

"You... forget it, I have said everything that needs to be said. Think carefully about how to get back to your previous state."

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open and Allen walked in.

In the room, Marshal Kong was sitting behind his desk, with his hands on the table. His face was a little red from anger, and his hair, which was originally standing upright, was standing upside down.

And on the sofa directly opposite him, Kuzan was sitting there, saying that it was not suitable to sit down. If his body slid down a little bit, he would look like Ge You was paralyzed.
