Chapter 106: Any change in style would make it a horror movie
Tom was wearing a red swordsman's outfit, holding a rapier, and wearing a black wide-brimmed hat. The style of the hat seemed to be the same as Mihawk's. He looked very energetic.
At this time, Tom held the sword upright in front of him, pinched the tip of the sword with his left hand, and used his right hand to bend the sword slightly. Then he released his left hand, allowing the tip of the sword to bounce out, and the sword body just happened to be flat, ready for attack.
Mihawk looked at Zhang Daye: "What do you mean?"
"Uh... maybe, maybe he wants to challenge you to a duel of swords." Zhang Da was also a little unsure. Letting a cat block someone's way and show off was a provocative act. It would be reasonable for others to chop him with a knife. "You may not believe it, but Tom is actually very strong."
Mihawk felt that this smooth-talking boy was completely unreliable, but his eyes told him that this boy was not lying, so Mihawk looked at Altria.
"Tom is indeed very strong, in every sense of the word." Altria didn't know how to describe him, so she could only smile politely and say, "If you are interested, you can give it a try. It doesn't matter if you use all your strength."
"All your strength?" Altria's words were enough to arouse Mihawk's interest. He drew out the black knife again. He didn't use the small knife because Altria asked him to use all his strength.
I had felt that this cat could use a sword, so I might as well give it a try. He looked at Tom and asked, "Does it matter if I die?"
Tom thought about it and shook his head.
"Okay." Mihawk raised his knife. He didn't expect a cat to be so courageous. He was much stronger than his master.
However, Zhang Da also felt that he might have misunderstood something. Tom shaking his head probably meant that he didn't want to die, right?
Seeing the other party agreed, Tom thrust his sword forward and said, "Aha!"
Mihawk brushed it aside and frowned.
Tom swung the rapier in his hand repeatedly, launching dozens of attacks in a blink of an eye. Mihawk held the sword with one hand and deflected all the attacks with just the tip of the sword without moving his feet.
At this time Mihawk was a little confused. Although this cat could hold a sword and he just drew the sword at a good speed, his moves were immature, his steps were messy, and his strength was not enough. Was this level worthy of Artoria asking him to use his full strength?
Thinking of this, Mihawk counterattacked and swung his sword quickly, the speed was far faster than the fastest speed Tom just showed.
Ding! Tom's face was panicked for a moment, but he immediately used the sword in his hand to pull away the black knife.
The front end of the rapier whipped the side of the black knife like a whip, causing the black knife to pass by his ear without hurting any hair.
"Interesting." Mihawk felt that the force of the blow just now should not be enough to shake his knife, but his knife was deflected.
Mihawk did not sheath his sword, but instead turned the blade to slash horizontally, even faster than the previous move.
Tom ducked his head so quickly that the hat on his head didn't react and spun a few times in the air. When Tom stood up straight, it fell back on his head.
"Is it a coincidence or strength?" Hawkeye Mihawk's life card introduced that he could see through not only swordsmanship, but also the essence of the power possessed by the person blocking his way, but at this time, he could not understand a cat.
He swung the black knife in his hand continuously, but no matter how fast or slow he drew the sword, the cat in front of him could always dodge it in all kinds of incredible postures, and it was always very dangerous. Even if it dodged by one millimeter, it would lose a hair.
This reminded him of the Paper Drawing among the Six Styles of the Navy, but no matter how proficient one was in Paper Drawing, using it in front of him would be courting death. There was something wrong with this cat, very wrong.
"So how would you deal with this?" Mihawk slashed with his sword, and his wrist seemed to tremble. It looked like he had only slashed once, but the slashes crisscrossed into a dense net, covering Tom.
This is a sword technique that can cut Fujitora's meteorite into pieces. It is more effective than Zoro's Great Thousand World. This move has no name, but because Zhang Da saw his wrist shake three times, he also called it Jian Wang San.
Tom gasped. This flying slash was something he couldn't understand. It was totally unscientific. This, this, this, there was no way to dodge it!
He threw down his sword and ran left and right twice, but felt that he could not escape either way, so he felt relieved.
Tom spread his hands, stood up straight, took out a blindfold and tied it on, then took out a cigarette, lit it, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, and blew out a round smoke ring.
Buzz~
The slashing net penetrated Tom's body without any hindrance, creating a big hole in the ground behind him.
Mihawk looked at him in surprise. Was this the end? No, even though the cat was shattered, there was no blood at all, and it was put together quickly like a puzzle.
Because Tom couldn't see, he groped around in front of him with his hands. Finally, his two eyeballs jumped onto his face, pushed open the blindfold and went inside, and then he returned to normal.
"A person with special abilities?" Mihawk asked this question for the second time today.
Zhang Da also replied: "Not really, Tom is a very good swimmer, you can consider it his talent."
Can swim = not a person with special abilities
Is there such an incredible talent in the world?
Mihawk felt that this trip was indeed worthwhile, as he not only saw Altria's swordsmanship using magic, but also saw Tom's swordsmanship using his own magical talent.
But these two powers gave him a strange feeling, as if they didn't belong to this world.
When he was about to continue testing, Tom gave up.
Because his hat was broken. He had managed to smooth out the two small holes in the hat that had been pierced by Pittman's bow and arrow with his hands, but today it was cut into pieces.
The clothes he was wearing were clearly restored to their original state along with his body, but his hat couldn't be put back together. Tom felt very distressed as he held the pieces together.
"It's okay, Tom. I'll buy you another one like it later." Zhang Da was about to say that.
But Mihawk took action before him, took off his hat and put it on Tom's head: "It's a compensation for you. You may have infinite possibilities. Come on, cat, no, Tom!"
Mihawk, whose expression had always been cold and grim, smiled, and it was a gentle smile.
How do you know Tom has unlimited possibilities?
Zhang Da also sighed that this man had good taste and was really handsome. This might be the most charming uncle he had ever seen.
This time Mihawk really left, leaving everyone with a lonely and arrogant back and a sentence: "It would be very interesting if a cat defeated the world's greatest swordsman in the future! Hahaha!"
Zhang Da also checked Tom from head to toe. This time the reassembly seemed very smooth and it didn’t look like it would leak. Moreover, Tom didn’t seem to cry out in pain after being chopped into pieces. Was it because he was blindfolded?
Tom thought this man was a nice guy who knew how to compensate for the damaged things. He tried the hat on and found that it was a bit big and would easily fall down and block his eyes.
But it doesn't matter, just adjust the angle to adapt to it. He even took off his hat to show it to Zhang Daye as if to show off.
Zhang Da also praised with a smile, helped Tom put it on, and then looked at the direction where Hawkeye left, thinking, why did he also give a hat? Is this a quirk of the strong or a simple habit learned from Red Hair?
But you actually want Tom to work hard, so just forget it.
Rui Mengmeng saw him in a daze and asked, "Boss, what are you thinking about? You don't want to challenge him too, do you?"
Zhang Da also shook his head: "No, I suddenly remembered, didn't he pay for his drinks before?"
