One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

In three days, with the sun rising and setting, the navy had initially established a small base a hundred miles outside the gate of the Flower Capital of Wano Country.

We were new to your land, and Kozuki Sukiyaki was willing to cooperate, so there was no need for too much calculation. Therefore, we only set up a large camp, rather than a regular battle fortress with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

In the military camp, soldiers were coming in and out, cutting down forests, reclaiming wasteland, and building roads around them, as if they were going to be stationed there for a long time.

And on the day after Sakaski finished his conversation with Kozuki Sukiyaki, the foundation-level figure of the Shimotsuki family, the great swordsman Shimotsuki Kyu, and the foundation-level figure of the Fengyue family, the great swordsman Fengyue Ling, sent visiting cards, preparing to pay a visit to Sakaski and what Sakaski called "Lieutenant General Xuanming".

The swordsman of Wano Country can mobilize the five elements through the sword. According to legend, if the sword skills are practiced to the extreme, the sword can become divine.

In the most traditional Wano Country sword tradition, swordsmen pay less attention to actual combat and more attention to artistic conception, advocating that with one sword, one can see the birth and fall of all things, the laws of nature, and their brilliance throughout the world.

Even though the tradition of swordsmanship gradually turned towards actual combat use as wars came, the top swordsmen of each generation found that if they wanted to go further in the way of the sword, they still needed to return to the old ways and comprehend the true nature of the sword.

As for Shimotsuki Jiu and Fugetsu Ling, as the top swordsmen in Wano Country, they are also supported by their families, so they can concentrate on studying kendo and understanding the principles of nature.

Shuang Yuejiu is skilled in the ice sword technique. The cold light of the sword is wrapped in icy energy, and the heaven and earth are moved when the sword is swung.

Fugetsu Ling, a two-sword master, relies on his swift sword intent. The two swords in his hands are as fast as lightning and have unparalleled sharp blades. He is also the best swordsman in Wano Country.

The two of them visited each other together, and although it was just a visit, it was obviously a bit of a test in it.

After all, when two parties cooperate, strength is the key to determining who has the dominant position.

Although Sakaski's strength alone is enough to have an equal dialogue with Kozuki Sukiyaki and Wano Country, this kind of equality cannot make Wano Country afraid.

Only the appearance of a strong man who can truly crush all the samurai in Wano Country can make Kozuki Sukiyaki willingly give up the dominance of cooperation, but obviously Shimotsuki Kyu doesn't think so.

"Zero, I respect Sakaski's strength, but I don't think the strong man mentioned by the lava warrior has the strength to crush you and me."

Standing at the gate of the naval base, Shimotsuki Jiu half-closed his eyes. He was in his fifties and looked like an old farmer who had just returned from working in the fields. If it were not for the long sword at his waist, no one would have thought that he was the "Grandmaster Jiu" famous in Wano Country.

It is worth mentioning that Lava Warrior is the respectful name given to Sakaski by Kozuki Sukiyaki. In fact, Shimotsuki Jiu also has his own title of "Ice Sword God", but that title has not been used for a long time.

"Jiu, if you don't believe it, why did you invite me to visit you? Your words don't need to hide your feelings. Your sword will eventually tell everything."

At the side, Feng Yueling, who was nearly sixty years old, placed his right hand lightly on the scabbard at his waist and replied lightly.

Having not seen the scene of Sakaski releasing lava with his own eyes, Feng Yueling even had some doubts about the name "Lava Warrior".

But doubt does not mean disbelief. Feng Yueling knows very well that the world is full of wonders.

When he was a child, he saw his father use the sword in his hand to draw a hurricane of a hundred feet, and he also revered him as a god. Now that Feng Yueling himself possesses such strength, he also understands that the so-called gods are nothing more than powerful humans.

As the two swordsmen chatted casually, the gate of the navy camp slowly opened, and Carsen slowly walked out of the door surrounded by the crowd. Sakaski was behind Carsen on the right, with a resolute face.

Originally, Carsent planned to invite the two swordsmen to the training ground, but the naval base had just been built, and three days was already the limit to set up the camp, so there was no training ground at all.

In order to prevent the newly built naval base from becoming ruins, Carson decided to choose a battle location outside the base.

In addition, according to the customs of Wano Country, pomp and circumstance have always been valued, so Carsente temporarily brought a group of people to do it.

On the other side, as soon as they saw the position of the crowd, the two swordsmen had already locked on their target - the man standing in front of Sakaski.

"call."

Shuang Yuejiu exhaled lightly, and the air flow slowly condensed in the air and turned into a piece of ice.

At the same time, Shuang Yuejiu's slightly bent back straightened instantly, the turbidity in his eyes was replaced by a sharp sword intent, and his whole body exuded a chilling coldness.

Beside him, Feng Yue Ling crossed his hands and gently placed them on the hilts of the two swords at his waist, leaning forward slightly, like a cheetah ready to pounce - this was the starting move of the double-sword style.

The energy that had been accumulated for several days reached its peak at this moment. Two sharp sword edges shot up into the sky, dispersing the surrounding birds and beasts.

This is the aura that belongs only to a great swordsman, this is the confidence and strength that can cut through everything.

"嘡啷!"

The sharp blade was unsheathed, and Carlton and Gion behind Carsen subconsciously drew out their long swords, gripped the hilts tightly with both hands, and pointed the sharp blades forward.

Rich in blood, floating like cherry blossoms, this is the kendo of Carlton and Gion.

A pure swordsman can tell who is stronger by the clash of wills alone. When facing a strong opponent, he will always subconsciously draw his sword. This is the swordsman's instinctive reaction.

In the clash of swords, the party that draws the weapon first will naturally be at a disadvantage.

Of course, if the difference in strength is too great, the abyss between them may make people completely lose the courage to draw their swords.

Despite their extraordinary talents, at their current age, they are still unable to compete with the two seniors who have devoted their entire lives to studying kendo, so it is understandable that they are at a disadvantage.

However, Carsente, who was at the center of the clash of wills, was neither hurried nor slow. Apart from a faint smile, there was no trace of tension on his face.

"Two seniors, have you vented enough?"

With a faint smile, the shadow of the mythical beast flashed by, and the powerful pressure suppressed everyone's sword intent in an instant, but it was gone in a flash, like a breeze passing by, and even made everyone think it was just a momentary illusion.

However, it is impossible for the two sword masters, Shimotsuki Jiu and Fengyue Ling, to attribute this to an illusion.

In their eyes, at that moment just now, there was a mythical beast with a dragon head and a turtle body, with a soaring snake coiled around it, suppressing the four directions.

Facing the terrifying beast, the two men actually felt a brief moment of fear, as if even drawing their swords against it would be a great disrespect to that being.

"My name is Feng Yueling, nice to meet you, General."

"My name is Shuang Yuejiu, nice to meet you, General."

After the collision of momentum, the two of them bowed and greeted each other sincerely, fully carrying forward the local "bowing craftsman" spirit.

"It's okay. I believe that after seeing you today, you two seniors will have no regrets coming here."
