I, the great swordsman, am definitely not a bootlicker

"Thank you! I will never forget this kindness!" The short old man holding his beloved horse said goodbye to Luffy and others.

"Have a nice journey! Stop walking on stilts and take care of yourself!" Luffy also waved goodbye.

"Ah... That's great!" Luffy laughed heartily as he watched the old man walk away, completely forgetting Aokiji's existence. Then he shivered again: "It's just like winter."

Aokiji tilted his head and looked at his moody appearance, his face speechless: "How should I put it, you are very similar to your grandfather, Monkey D. Luffy...should I say passionate and unrestrained, or erratic?"

"Grandpa...Grandpa!" Luffy instantly broke out in a sweat, thinking of the fear of being dominated by Garp.

"Hey! Luffy, what's wrong with you? You're sweating all over!" Usopp was confused.

"Your grandfather has taken great care of me in the past! The reason I came here, besides to see Nico Robin, is to see you." Aokiji paused, his face becoming gloomy: "You'd better... die here!!"

Is it about to begin? Zoro was about to draw his sword, and he was complaining in his heart, "Damn it, you must have been punched by Master Garp many times, this is just a naked revenge."

"The government hasn't noticed your dangerousness yet, but after carefully studying your past, I find that you all have more backbone... Although there are not many of you, but if you dangerous people gather together, you will become a serious problem in the future."

"From the time you were wanted... your actions during this period, your rapid growth... even I, someone who has dealt with criminals for years, find the future bleak. The reason I feel this is particularly dangerous is because of you—Nicole Robin."

"The amount of the bounty is not only an indicator of a person's strength, but also the extent of the threat they pose to the World Government. That's why you, at the age of eight, are wanted by us!"

"A child who has survived to this day, who fled after being betrayed, or who was taken in and exploited by anyone for any reason."

As he spoke, Aokiji changed his lazy attitude and his tone became cold: "You survived in the underground society by adapting to the situation, and now you choose to hide with these guys."

"Hey! The way you talk is really annoying. What deep hatred do you have with little Robin?" Sanji couldn't stand it anymore.

"It's not a deep hatred, but she escaped from my clutches once before. It's all in the past. You will soon understand your situation and regret accepting this troublesome woman."

Zoro was weighing the pros and cons beside him. This guy probably came to see whether the partner chosen by Robin this time was reliable. After all, apart from Luffy's background, the current Straw Hat Pirates were really not famous. Aokiji didn't believe that they could protect Robin.

Aokiji is unlikely to kill Luffy. Considering Luffy's background, Luffy will definitely not watch himself die at the hands of Aokiji, and Aokiji will definitely not kill Luffy. Fighting with him will definitely help him comprehend the color of armed color.

"The proof is that, to date, every organization connected to Nico Robin... has been wiped out, with the exception of this woman, of course."

Before Aokiji could continue, Zoro took a step forward and pointed his sword at Aokiji: "If you want to fight, then fight. Why are you still talking nonsense? I'm not interested in Robin's past. Compared to that, I'm more interested in the admiral's strength..."

"Hey! Zoro! Don't do this!" Usopp was very panicked.

Zoro ignored Usopp, silently tied his headscarf, activated his observation Haki, and was ready to go.

Aokiji slowly stood up and grabbed the man from the ground. "Pervert Roronoa Zoro, the bounty is 1 million berries. Among the many vicious pirate groups, few crew members can get the same bounty as the captain. This is because you defeated Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, in Alabasta and slaughtered 100 bounty hunters under the name of Baroque Studio."

"He's also a rare and extremely evil person." Aokiji's eyes gradually turned cold. He gently lifted the grass in his hand and blew a breath of cold air. The weeds in the wind instantly froze and formed an ice sword: "You are a swordsman, right? Although I am not good at using a sword."

Shit! This sentence is more or less a bit disrespectful.

"Three Swordsman Style: Ghost Slayer!"

Ding!

Aokiji slightly turned sideways and lightly tapped the place where the three swords intersected, changing the trajectory of Zoro's attack, and the two men passed each other.

After being slightly surprised, Zoro finally understood that the admiral's observation Haki was not comparable to that of a rookie like him who had just mastered it.

"Hey, hey, such rough swordsmanship. Be careful, this ice sword can't withstand it." As Aokiji finished speaking, the ice sword in his hand turned black.

"Armament Haki? That's just what I want!" Zoro grinned.

"Three Sword Styles, One Gorikiro, Two Gorikiro, Two Gorikislash."

Bang!

The muscles in Zoro's arms bulged exaggeratedly, and he launched a highly destructive slash, while Aokiji slashed with the sword in both hands. The grass under their feet was dented due to the collision of the swords.

Just when Zoro was about to compete with him.

"Ice Time!"

Seeing the two swords in his hands begin to freeze, Zoro didn't dare to exert any more strength. He pushed forward with all his strength and used the reaction force to jump back several steps.

The double swords in his hands also felt a biting cold. Looking down, he saw that the swords were already covered with ice, only a finger's distance away from the handles.

But Aokiji didn't stop, with cold air in his hand: "Ice Ball!"

Seeing five ice cones shooting towards him, Zoro raised his two swords: "Three Swords Style: Hundred Eight Troubled Phoenix!"

Three slashes from a distance shattered the ice cones, and the surroundings were suddenly shrouded in cold air.

While Zoro retracted the two swords in his hands, he flew up to a high place with the Moon Step and swooped down. He held the Wado Ichimonji tightly in both hands, and a blue flame emerged from the sword, and the flame gradually formed a blue flying dragon shape.

"Six Styles of the Navy?" As a navy admiral, Aokiji recognized the skill used by Zoro at a glance, but this move was not unique to the navy, so he was not very surprised. He raised his right arm, which was filled with cold air, and aimed it at Zoro in the air.

"Ice Block "Pheasant Beak"!"

A huge ice bird flew towards Zoro.

"One-sword style, flying dragon, flame!"

The flying dragon collided with the ice bird, and a large amount of fog formed instantly, blocking everyone's vision, including Zoro. His observation Haki could not detect Aokiji's trace.

After landing, Zoro sighed secretly. It turned out to be too much of a stretch. Although fire can overcome ice, it is also restrained by ice. The pre-swing of Flying Dragon·Flame is too long, which is enough for Aokiji to react and extinguish the flame on the sword.

In desperation, Zoro decided to go all out. If he could win, he would beat him. If he couldn't, he would fight again next time. So he mobilized the energy in his dantian.

"Ghost energy·Nine-sword style!"

At this time, the fog in the air was affected by two cold air rushing into the sky, and instantly turned into a whirlwind. Then snowflakes fell to the ground, and Aokiji and the three-headed and six-armed Zoro appeared in front of everyone.

"Oh!! Zoro with three heads and six arms!!" Luffy's eyes seemed to be shining with golden light.

"What's going on!?" Sanji and Usopp had never seen Zoro in this form before.

Aokiji's eyes turned serious when he looked at Zoro.

"Hey! Luffy, this is my final blow!"

"I understand." Luffy pressed his straw hat.

"Asura Ichimigin!"

"Ice Gloves!"

Boom! !

Aokiji wrapped one fist with ice, covered with armament color and turned black, then smashed out fiercely, just facing the flying Zoro, blocking between the nine swords full of devilish energy. The strong collision made the whole ground tremble.

Then, Zoro flew backwards and slammed heavily onto the grass. His three-headed, six-armed form instantly vanished without a trace. He felt the blood surging in his chest and forced himself to spit out, "Is this the Armament Haki..."

Then, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Zoron!!"
