One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

"You're welcome, General. You're welcome..."

"Please bear with me during today's visit, General."

As arrogant as they were just now, they are as humble now.

"So what are you two here for today?"

Seeing the two people's current appearance, Carsent expressed his satisfaction and continued to ask with a smile.

"General, we two came here today to discuss cooperation with you. At the same time, we have been studying swordsmanship all our lives, and we hope that you can give us some pointers."

Shimotsuki Jiu bowed and answered politely.

The fear in one's heart is the greatest shame for a swordsman. One must know that the two of them had already thought they had seen through life and death, and would not even frown even if they died for challenging a strong man. However, the fear revealed in the collision of momentum just now made them wake up.

It turns out that the two of them are not fearless, but there are no strong people in Wano Country that they are afraid of.

After realizing Carsent's strength, he was humble, but he could not bring disaster to the entire country and the daimyo because of his own selfishness.

But being humble does not mean admitting defeat, nor does it mean not daring to face the strong. The challenge at this time is to fulfill the sword path in your heart. The more you fear something, the more courage you must face it.

You know, if it weren't for the continuation of Wano Country, the four major families would have gone to challenge Kaido long ago, attempting to seek a breakthrough between life and death.

Even if he died in battle, he could leave behind a posthumous evaluation of "fighting with the dragon, stirring up the storm, and dying in defeat", and his life would not be in vain.

"In that case, please lead the way, seniors."

Carsente smiled and motioned for the two to lead the way and head to the training ground together.

While Carsen was talking to the two swordsmen, the people behind him were also full of thoughts, especially Gion and Carlton.

After all, for the entire team, Sakaski specializes in Devil Fruits, and although he has experience with swordsmanship, he has not used it in many years. Anna also has her Night Angel Fruit as the core of her strength, with the sharpness of the Ame-Hazakhan as its wings.

And only these two people can truly feel the swordsmanship level of the two swordsmen of Wano Country. Beneath their seemingly fragile bodies, they contain the power to cut through everything.

"Such a strong sword move, these two swordsmen are not simple."

Gion's flawless face was slightly furrowed.

"This power... seems to resemble my father..."

Feeling the two forces, Carlton seemed to see the figure of Lieutenant General Hisenlight appear in his mind.

As Carsent's swordsman, the navy's top swordsman, Vice Admiral Hisenlight has truly entered the realm of top combat power by relying on pure swordsmanship. Although he can't burst out his full strength due to past hidden injuries, he is still one of the top in the field of swordsmanship.

"When will I be able to possess such power..."

Carlton held down the slightly humming sword and asked himself in his heart, having been immersed in the realm of swordsmanship for many years, Carlton showed that he might be able to break through to the realm of a great swordsman.

……

"General, we can stay here. This place is in the valley, hundreds of miles away from the Flower City and more than twenty miles away from the general's camp. In addition, the valley and mountains limit us, so other buildings will not be damaged."

In the dense forest, three figures flashed by quickly and disappeared from the sight in just a moment.

After a while, Shimotsuki Jiu and Fengyue Ling stopped and spoke.

"In that case, you two can attack as much as you want, there is no need to hold back!"

Carsent nodded lightly, indicating that the confrontation could begin at any time.

With Carsent's consent, this duel, which was called guidance but was actually a test, officially began!

"call……"

Feng Yueling exhaled all the foul air in his chest, leaned over and laid his sword, his upper body almost touching the ground, his hands clenched in the air, suspended at a position one finger above the hilt.

"Shh!"

In an instant, as fast as the wind, in just a moment, the two swords on Feng Yue Ling's waist had already rushed in front of Carsente with two cold rays, forming an "X" shape and chopped down fiercely.

"So fast!"

There was a gleam of surprise in Carsent's eyes. Drawing the sword and slashing was extremely fast, and Feng Yueling's double swords were even faster. It seemed that the blade had already passed through and killed the enemy before the tip of the sword was even in the scabbard.

"I just don't know how powerful it is!"

"clang!"

Carsent extended his right arm forward, protecting his chest. His mighty and domineering aura condensed into a black battle shield. The pervasive dark gold gave people a feeling of indestructibility.

It was not until the double swords of Feng Yue Ling hit the domineering shield that they truly revealed themselves, and a series of phantoms behind the swords slowly dissipated.

"This...this is impossible!"

Feng Yueling's eyes widened when he saw that his full-strength attack only left two fleeting white marks on the domineering body protection that Carsent had casually condensed.

Each one of us knows his own business. Although the sword-drawing slash is known for its speed, its essence is the "momentum" that explodes in an instant. It is an extreme explosion that relies on speed and its own inertia, and combined with the power of the wind, it can cut through mountains.

In shock, Feng Yueling skillfully rotated his double swords, drawing a perfect sword flower on the side of Carsen, and the tip of the sword turned and attacked Carsen's right waist and abdomen.

At the same time, the rapid drop in body temperature made Carsent notice another dazzling cold light - that was Shimotsuki Jiu's slash.

As the blade flashed, the entire valley was covered with thick ice, and even the air was filled with thick snowflakes.

"Playing with ice in front of Xuanwu, even Kuzan doesn't dare to do that, you are really brave!"

Facing this slash, Carsent had no inclination to defend. Instead, he opened his palm and slapped Feng Yueling's condensed sword energy with a powerful slap. The huge force almost knocked Feng Yueling's sword out of his hand.

"嘡啷!"

The crisp sound of slashing and Shimotsuki Jiu's wide-open eyes.

Before the blade arrived, the icy aura condensed on the tip of the blade suddenly dissipated, as if all the ice and snow could not get close to within five meters of Carsent's body. No matter how much momentum he condensed, he could not push the ice field forward any further.

However, the slashing blow that he was equally proud of could not even cut through Carsent's defenseless skin, let alone his tendons, bones and internal organs.

"So strong..."

Shimotsuki Jiu stared blankly at the scene in front of him, as if he recalled the scene when he fought Kaido several months ago.

At that time, facing Kaido, although he could not cause fatal damage, he could at least hurt Kaido. Without the coverage of domineering, Kaido did not dare to resist him with just his body.

However, the man in front of him could rely on his body to withstand the great swordsman's attacks, which was something Shimotsuki Jiu had never dared to imagine before.
