Chapter 419 Cause of Death: This Hawkeye Doesn’t Look Strong
The sea area near Changhuanchang Island is particularly turbulent today. Sometimes the waves are surging, sometimes there is golden light, sometimes birds are startled and fly away, and sometimes schools of fish jump out of the sea and flee into the distance.
The herders on the neighboring island speculated whether an earthquake was about to occur, and only Donggit had a rough idea of the truth.
The people near the battlefield were very relaxed at this time. At first, they were a little worried about Altria's safety, but after a long time, everyone realized that it was difficult for these two people to hurt each other, so everyone watched the battle, played, and exercised.
Zhang Da was also the type who trained while watching the battle, treating the fight between Hawkeye and Altria as a backdrop.
"Plu pulu pulu... Kacha."
Zhang Daye thought it was Zefa's reply, so he threw away the dumbbell and answered the phone: "This is Zhang Daye, is this Mr. Zefa?"
The voice that Den Den Mushi spoke was not Zephyr's: "Hello, Mr. Tatsuya, I'm Sengoku."
"Marshal Zhan Guo?" Zhang Da was also surprised. "You actually called me personally. I'm flattered."
Zhan Guo said politely, "I have heard our navy's generals mention you more than once, and I have always wanted to meet everyone from the Amber Tour Group so that I can thank you in person for your help to the navy."
"You are too polite..." Zhang Daye's words were drowned out by a rumbling sound.
"What happened?" Sengoku asked hurriedly, "There are sounds of fighting over there, did you encounter pirates?"
Zhang Da also glanced into the distance and said, "It's okay, it's just Altria fighting with Hawkeye, don't worry about it, just go ahead and talk."
"I'm glad you're okay." Zhan Guo breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly felt something was wrong, "Who did you say Altria was fighting with?"
Zhang Da also said: "Eagle Eye."
A drop of sweat appeared on Zhan Guo's forehead, and he asked with a hint of luck: "Which Hawkeye?"
Zhang Da also said: "Who else could it be, Hawkeye, the world's greatest swordsman, Joracol Mihawk."
Zhan Guo said hurriedly: "Calm down, don't be impulsive! If you don't want to be a Shichibukai, you can say it nicely. There's no need to go out of your way to fight Shichibukai!"
Good man, Crocodile's body is still here, and you guys have provoked Hawkeye again so soon? Are you guys going to fight against the Seven Warlords? If you kill one more, you really won't be a Seven Warlord anymore.
"Ha, who do you think we are?" Zhang Da also realized that Zhan Guo was thinking in the wrong direction. He thought about it and laughed, "But... your idea is not bad. As long as all the Seven Warlords are killed, the Seven Warlords system will become a joke. Then we won't have to be Seven Warlords anymore. Ha, Marshal Zhan Guo, you are indeed a wise general!"
"Don't joke like that!" Zhan Guo felt his blood pressure was rising.
These guys are really worthy of being praised by Karp. They are really talented in making him angry. He tried to keep a calm tone: "What's going on?"
"To put it simply, Hawkeye came here to do something and happened to be near our route, so he waited for us for a few days. His purpose was to exchange swordsmanship with Altria." Zhang Da also explained, "You should know that we have known each other for a long time. There is no problem with this kind of exchange, right?"
Zhan Guo was of course aware of this incident, which had caused a bit of a stir. He digested the information a little and said, "It's okay if it's just like this, but please be careful about the power and don't hurt ordinary people."
"Don't worry about that. We deliberately chose an uninhabited island." Zhang Da also said, "By the way, you contacted me about the invitation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, right?"
Zhan Guo said: "That's right, Zefa has told me what you mean. I will discuss this matter with the Five Elders. You don't have to reply yet."
"That's great, thank you." Zhang Da also felt very happy to get rid of the trouble.
"If you really want to thank me, then you should do less things that give me a headache."
"We rarely cause trouble, right? Is it always trouble that comes to us?"
Of course Zhan Guo knew that he couldn't blame them, but no matter what the cause was, the end result was that he would have to work overtime. This time he might even be scolded by the Five Elders, which would be a headache.
After a moment of silence, Zhan Guo said, "Anyway, let's leave it at that for now. Zefa asked me to ask for him. According to your route, it shouldn't take long for you to reach the Sabaody Archipelago, right? Are you interested in visiting the Navy Headquarters then?"
"It seems that we are indeed close to the Sabaody Archipelago." Zhang Da also calculated that if he continued to follow the record pointer, the next stop would be the Seven Water City, and then the Sabaody Archipelago. "We are indeed a little curious about the Navy Headquarters, but will it be too much of a disturbance?"
"Don't bother." Zefa took the microphone. He must have been listening beside Zhan Guo all along. "Aren't you interested in Six Styles and Haki? It just so happens that the preparations for the new training camp have just begun. You can come and train together."
It doesn’t matter whether they participate in the training or not. The main thing is to let them stay for a while to develop feelings.
"Training camp?" Zhang Da was also very interested in this. Training for new recruits might not mean much to him, but Zefa would definitely make adjustments for different people.
Moreover, people like Ye Yan, Uncle Long, Perona and Weiwei, who have slightly poor physical fitness, will definitely make great progress if they participate for a period of time.
Zhang Da also asked excitedly, "Does it include food and lodging?"
"..." Zefa said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Bao!"
Zhan Guo had no objection to Zefa's decision. The Navy Headquarters really did not lack these few people who could eat. As for the food, they could just send people to the sea to catch a few sea beasts and sea kings and they would have everything. It would just require a little more chefs.
"Okay, it's settled then! We will probably spend a few days in Water Seven City, then stay in the Sabaody Archipelago for a while, and we will probably head to the Navy Headquarters in a month or two."
When they hung up the phone, Zhang Da was happy that he had successfully found a short-term meal ticket. Zefa was also happy that his recruitment plan had made some progress, and everyone was happy.
…
In the next few days, Altria continued to practice swordsmanship with Hawkeye.
During this period, a small incident occurred. An unknown small pirate group had been lurking in the distance for several days, and finally decided to rush up, wanting to kill Hawkeye and the Amber Travel Group at the same time.
Then, they died.
Cause of death: 'Hawkeye and the Amber Tour Group have been fighting for several days, and now is their weakest time!'
Hawkeye and Altria certainly did not fight continuously, and they did not miss their daily meals and rest.
Occasionally, during breaks, they would discuss with each other the principles and optimization methods of sword moves. During the several days of fighting, both sides had their own strengths and weaknesses, but there was still no official winner.
According to both of them, unless both sides fight to the death, risking their lives, competing in the brief moment of comprehension and decision-making between life and death, it would be difficult to determine the winner in swordsmanship.
Hawkeye does not care much about the title of the world's greatest swordsman. He even expects someone to surpass him and let him see a higher level of swordsmanship.
And Altria had no interest in that title, and it was even more impossible for her to fight with Hawkeye for a name. To her, Hawkeye should be considered a good opponent and friend.
In view of the great destructive power of the two people, Zhang Da was a little worried about the bearing capacity of these small islands, so he simply walked around the other small islands of Changhuan Changdao with everyone.
Basically, they would change locations after fighting one or two games, allowing everyone to see the scenery of each island and also distributing the pressure among the nine small islands that were temporarily uninhabited by herdsmen. Zhang Da also felt that he was a really kind person.
In the end, each island had a shallow bay that sunken into the island. The shapes and sizes were different. Overall, it should not have much impact on the environment of the island, and it should not have much impact on the future lives of the herdsmen.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Da couldn't help but fight with Hawkeye a few times, and finally got a three or four foot long wound, which was almost deep enough to see the bone.
Faced with this kind of wound that is fatal to ordinary people, Zhang Daye felt: "This hurts too much! It still hurts so much even with all the defenses activated. It hurts so much that I can hardly walk!"
"You're just about to lose the ability to walk? A normal person with injuries like this wouldn't be able to stand up, right?" Xia Lulu complained, "What kind of monster are you? Lie down quickly and let Wendy stop the bleeding!"
"Oh, okay." Zhang Da also lay down, and while receiving treatment, he complained that Hawkeye could not be gentler.
It was just a fatal wound, but after Wendy's treatment, Zhang Da only needed to have a simple sleep and wake up the next day full of energy without even a scar left.
Zhang Da Ye's performance gave Hawkeye a lot of surprises. You know, the last time he saw Zhang Da Ye in the Sabaody Archipelago, he was just a noisy weakling. In Hawkeye's words, he was the kind of "ant who doesn't deliberately remember."
But now, if he doesn't use force to overwhelm his opponent, Hawkeye needs to be more careful to find the flaws in his moves. This progress is already amazing.
Moreover, when Hawkeye started the fight, he was planning to make this annoying guy lie down for a few days, but he didn't expect that his physique was a bit strange. Hawkeye was looking forward to Zhang Da's future.
Tom was most anxious when he saw his master bleeding. Without saying a word, he took out his sword and rushed forward to fight with Hawkeye for three hundred rounds.
If someone counted, they would find that it was exactly three hundred rounds. Although Tom's steps were erratic and his moves were disorganized, Hawkeye was unable to find any flaws.
Moreover, according to Hawkeye's strength, he should have been able to break gold and jade with every move, and his sword energy was rampant, but this time he fought for three hundred moves and failed to use even one flying slash. The Black Knife Night, who could cut through iron like mud, couldn't even cut through the ordinary Western sword in Tom's hand. He felt powerless every time he made a move.
It was not until the 300th round was over and Tom confirmed that his master was fine that the situation changed. Hawkeye swung his sword horizontally, but Tom did not take it. Instead, he threw away his sword and ran towards Zhang Daye, rushing up to him.
However, his upper body and lower body had different ideas. His upper body hugged Zhang Daye's neck and rubbed his face, while his lower body danced tap dance around Zhang Daye.
Xia Lulu looked at Tom's confusing behavior and complained, "It feels like Tom is getting weirder and weirder."
Wendy reminded , "Tom, Tatsuya's brother's wound has just stopped bleeding, be careful not to touch it."
Tom nodded to her and continued rubbing.
Zhang Da also rubbed Tom's face, then pointed at his lower body: "Are you going to keep doing this?"
Tom took a look and a confused expression appeared on his face. He didn't know what to do when asked so formally.
Zhang Da also took out a roll of tape and waved it in front of Tom's eyes, asking, "How about sticking it on first?"
Tom nodded, loosened his grip on Zhang Daye's neck, and fell back to his lower body. Because he accidentally fell backwards, Tom grabbed his lower body with his hands and twisted it hard to get himself in the right position.
Zhang Da was also helping Tom wrap the tape here, while Hawkeye was thinking on the other side. Although he had chopped Tom into pieces once before, he still wanted to ask, what breed of cat is this?
Rui Mengmeng saw that her boss and Tom both took the challenge, so she simply tried it as well. The result also gave Hawkeye a big surprise. Fortunately, this time it was different from the surprise with Tom and was a relatively normal one.
First of all, there was the sword in her hand. Although it was black, Hawkeye was sure that it was not a black sword, nor was it any famous sword he knew. Even with such a sword, Hawkeye could not cut it.
He was sure Rui Mengmeng didn't know how to use Haki, but like Altria, she used a power he had never seen before, and this power was very destructive.
Rui Mengmeng usually looks weak, but once she is at a disadvantage in a fight, she will become very fierce. She specifically aims at vital points such as the throat and heart with her sword. Hawkeye always feels that she wants to rely on her excellent agility to move behind him.
Judging from the posture of raising his hand and the pattern of attack, the part Rui Mengmeng wanted to attack was most likely his kidney.
How did she learn the swordsmanship of an assassin when her swordsmanship was obviously similar to that of Altria? Hawkeye was puzzled.
Due to Rui Mengmeng's excellent strength and agility, Hawkeye spent much more time dealing with her than dealing with Zhang Daye.
When hitting Rui Mengmeng, perhaps taking Zhang Daye's complaint into consideration, or perhaps out of concern for the lady, Hawkeye was a little gentler.
"Ah, I lost." Rui Mengmeng felt the pain and admitted defeat decisively. She glanced at the wound and her face showed an expression of almost crying.
"Sister Mengmeng!" Wendy hurried over to help with the treatment.
"Ah?" Rui Mengmeng said, "I'm fine, the wound is very shallow, and the bleeding will stop soon. You go take care of the boss."
"But you look very ugly."
"Because the clothes are damaged, they are very expensive!" Rui Mengmeng said with heartache.
Hawkeye:?
Another person with a defense far superior to that of an ordinary person? He looked at his blade. It couldn't be that it was because I needed to sharpen this blade, right?
…
Hawkeye left, driving his boat. He was going to the New World to visit his friends and challenge more powerful people. The existence of the Amber Travel Group made him feel the urgency that he could be defeated at any time. The days to come might not be so boring!
Here Zhang Da can also prove that Hawkeye definitely did not use his black knife to row the boat, but was sailing normally relying on the sail.
As for what he would do in the doldrums, Zhang Da declined to comment.
