Pirate's Swordsman

♂nbsp; /! !

After a few minutes.

A group of people from the Bartow Club encountered a group of cooks sitting on the ground at a busy street intersection.

These cooks obviously couldn't run anymore. They were all sweating profusely and panting. Some of the fat cooks who were overweight collapsed and lay on the ground. They didn't even have the strength to sit up.

After all, they are ordinary people, and their physical strength is far inferior to that of pirates. It is quite remarkable that they can chase them all the way here like chicken blood.

"Hey, uncles, just stay here and have a good rest!"

When Bartolomeo passed by them, he shouted at the top of his voice: "That boy who ate the Overlord's meal, I will chase him back, don't worry!"

These words aroused the side glances of the cooks. They didn't know about the missing metal statue, and thought that Ba Tuo was drawing a sword to help when there was an injustice. They were immediately moved to tears.

"Sure enough, you can't judge a person by his appearance."

An older cook was breathing heavily, looking at Ba Tuo's retreating back and sighed: "What a kind young man, but it's a pity that he is a little bit ugly."

The other cooks nodded in agreement.

It's a pity that Ba Tuo didn't hear it, otherwise he would have burst into tears. How can I praise someone so much? I just have a weird hair style. He is obviously quite handsome!

After running for another thousand meters, it was not until the end of the street that Bator finally caught up with Ace and the others who were escaping. These guys thought they had successfully gotten rid of the cook and everything was fine. They were already sitting in front of the fountain square. rested on the steps.

As luck would have it, just as the distance was gradually getting closer, Bator happened to faintly hear the terms "Xia Nuo" and "The Gale Pirates" from their conversation, and he suddenly became more sure of what he had done before. judgment.

These guys are definitely fans of Sir Xia Nuo. His metal statue was definitely taken away by these guys!

"Hey, kid in a cowboy hat!"

Before he even arrived, Ba Tuo couldn't help shouting: "You thief who steals things, please give me back my things quickly!"

"what?"

Seeing the people from the Bator Club rushing towards them, the people from the Spade Pirates were a little confused. They were even more confused when they heard this. Ace pointed at himself and said in shock: "You are talking about me. ?"

"Nonsense, who else is there besides you?"

Bato took a few steps forward angrily, stretched out the palm of his right hand and spread it towards Ace: "Hurry up, get me the statue of Sir Xiano before I do anything!"

"What statue..."

Ace became more and more confused. He stood up from the steps. Just when he was about to say something, a heavy object suddenly fell from the top of his tilted cowboy hat and fell to the granite floor with a "snap".

Everyone on both sides focused their attention, and saw that what fell to the ground was a delicate and small metal statue.

The air in the square suddenly became quiet for a moment.

"Uh, I mean Captain..."

A member of the Spade Pirates looked at Ace and said weakly: "When did you put this thing on your hat..."

"I don't know either..." Ace looked confused, scratching his hair and muttering, "I have no impression at all. Could it be that it accidentally fell on my head when we bumped into it before?"

Seeing the confused expressions on the faces of this group of people, Bato also felt that something was wrong, and he guessed that he might have really wronged them.

He took a few steps forward, picked up the metal statue on the ground, carefully hung it on his mithril shoulder pad, and then looked at Ace suspiciously:

"You really didn't mean it? Aren't you also admirers of Lord Xia Nuo?"

"Admirer? Me?"

Ace was startled, and then couldn't help laughing: "How is that possible! There are many strong people in this world that I want to challenge and defeat, but there is no one who is worthy of my worship!"

"whsxsh.Eh?"

This time it was Ba Tuo's turn to be stunned. He said strangely: "Then I just heard that you were discussing things about Lord Xia Nuo..."

"Ah, you said that."

&n.178gou.bsp;Ace grinned and explained, "That's because I plan to challenge the wind swordsman Xiano after I leave this island! I was just discussing with my companions just now How to find traces of the Gale Pirates!"

"You? Challenge Master Xia Nuo?"

Upon hearing this, Bator and his subordinates looked at each other, and then burst out laughing as if they had heard some terrible joke.

"Hey, hey, did you hear, this kid actually wants to challenge Sir Xia Nuo!"

“The little devils these days really don’t know the heights of the world!”

"These guys are so funny, they're so hilarious, hahaha!"

Looking at the group of people on the opposite side who were laughing and laughing, the faces of the Spade Pirates gradually became ugly, and Ace also snorted: "What, you don't believe it?"

"Of course I don't believe it!"

Bato laughed so hard that tears almost came out. He pointed at Ace and did not hide his sarcasm:

"Boy, do you know what kind of existence Lord Xiano is? You must know that a few days ago, even Kaido, one of the four emperors, was defeated by him!"

"Just you? A stupid young man who came from nowhere and just entered the new world, and you want to defeat him?"

"If you don't try this kind of thing, how will you know the result?"

Ace snapped his fingers, and a wisp of flame spurted out from between his fingers, burning in the air. He smiled slightly and said, "What if it succeeds? And to say the least, it doesn't matter even if it fails. If you don’t see the vastness of this world, how can you become stronger?”

"This is……"

Seeing the flames that suddenly appeared strangely, the pirates in Bator's club couldn't help but be stunned, and Bator's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly: "A user with natural devil fruit abilities?"

His face became serious. After carefully looking at Ace up and down, he suddenly said: "Although I don't know what your background is, but now it seems that you should indeed have some strength..."

"How about this!"

Bartolomeo rolled up his sleeves, clenched his fists and made a sound like exploding beans, "Since you really want to challenge Lord Xiano, come and fight with me and let me try. Test your strength and see if you are qualified!"

"Huh?" Ace was stunned, looking at Bator inexplicably and said, "Why should I fight you? If I accidentally took away your things before, then I should apologize to you again."

"It has nothing to do with that!"

Bator grinned, his fighting spirit already rising. He took a sudden step forward and stared at Ace with piercing eyes:

"I am Sir Xia Nuo's number one fan. If you can't defeat me, you better think about your abilities again and stop wasting Sir Xia Nuo's time!"
