During the long voyage that followed, Hawkeye, though aloof, quickly became acquainted with the other crew members with Luo Tian's support.

Hawkeye also converted a section of the deck behind the Dragon Tower into land for growing vegetables.

During this time, Tesoro, unable to suppress his desire to increase his power, took the initiative to approach Hawkeye, expressing his desire to learn swordsmanship from him and enhance his strength.

However, Hawkeye, a great swordsman, merely glanced at Tesoro before shaking his head and saying:

"You don't have the talent for using a sword."

Although these words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, Tezzolo was not discouraged.

However, Hawkeye then spoke up again:

"But I can see that you have a desire to become stronger. If you want to do real combat training, you can come find me."

Upon hearing this, Tesoro, who had been somewhat disappointed, was overjoyed and nodded excitedly in response:

"Thank you so much."

Thus, although he failed to receive swordsmanship instruction from Hawkeye as he had hoped, Tesoro gained a valuable opportunity—to receive practical combat guidance from the world's top swordsmen.

Tezzolo also received guidance from Hawkeye from time to time during his subsequent training.

Before long, Luo Tian and his group finally arrived at their destination—Mogu Town.

Magic Valley Town was formed by a group of pirates.

Mogu Town is located at the port of Jaya Island, but part of Jaya Island has been washed into the White Sea by a huge ocean current.

As soon as Luo Tian and his group set foot on the island, they immediately attracted the attention of many pirates.

The pirates stared intently at Luo Tian and his group, whispering amongst themselves:

"Is that the legendary Luo Tian?"

Immediately afterwards, some pirates quickly pulled out their wanted posters and carefully compared them, then exclaimed in astonishment:

"That's right, it really is Luo Tian."

As Luo Tian and his group drew closer, the pirates who had initially harbored ill intentions retreated after confirming their identities.

After all, no one wants to easily provoke this renowned and terrifying figure.

However, among this group of pirates, there are always some arrogant and reckless individuals.

As Luo Tian and his group approached, several audacious pirates couldn't contain their excitement and wanted to take this opportunity to challenge Luo Tian in order to enhance their prestige and reputation in the pirate world.

Suddenly, a large group of pirates burst out from the crowd and charged menacingly towards Luo Tian and his companions.

At this critical moment, Hawkeye Mihawk, who had been standing silently beside Luo Tian, ​​made his move.

With a blank expression, he slowly drew the black knife from his back, and with a gentle flick of his arm, a sword aura instantly slashed out.

The group of pirates who attempted to attack Luo Tian and his companions were torn in two, their bodies scattered across the ground, their blood pooling and staining the street red.

Luo Tian also covered Anna Angie's eyes the instant Hawkeye made his move.

"Don't look, it'll ruin your eyes."

Seeing this, all the other pirates around were stunned.

Someone stammered in surprise:

"That...that's the world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk! Could it be that he's joined Luo Tian's pirate crew too?"

For a moment, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence, and no pirate dared to make a move.

Luo Tian and his group arrived at the town's tavern and stepped through its doors.

In an instant, the once noisy tavern seemed to have been muted, and the clamor came to an abrupt halt.

All the pirates' eyes turned to the doorway, fixed on Luo Tian and his group.

Facing numerous curious and wary gazes, Luo Tian remained calm and composed, as if the attention of those around him had no effect on him.

He walked straight to the bar without looking to the side, and after standing still, he looked at the bartender.

The bartender looked at Luo Tian. News of Luo Tian's arrival had spread throughout the entire Demon Valley Town after the battle that could hardly be called a fight. The bartender recognized Luo Tian the moment he entered the door.

At this moment, Luo Tian looked at him and his body trembled involuntarily.

He stammered, trembling, "You...you need something?"

Luo Tian narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

“I’d like to ask you about someone—Montblanc Coulicate.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire tavern erupted in laughter.

The pirates whispered amongst themselves, their voices rising and falling.

"Montblanc Coulicate? Ha, that's the descendant of that big liar Noland!"

"There are actually people who believe in such nonsense as the Golden Land and Sky Island. What an absolute idiot!"

"That idiot was just drinking here, arguing as he drank."

"Is Luo Tian also an idiot? If we look for him, does he believe in these things too?"

Hearing the unrestrained laughter and sarcasm from the crowd, the bartender's tense nerves relaxed a little.

He took a deep breath, composed himself, and then said to Luo Tian:

"Sir, if you're looking for him, he was just drinking here. But he's probably off diving by now. If you'd like, you can wait for him at his house on the westernmost shore of Mogu Town."

After hearing the bartender's words, Luo Tian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

He nodded slightly, politely replied "thank you," ignored the laughing pirates, and then turned to leave with his companions.

Anna and Angie blinked, their faces full of confusion, and asked in unison:

"Brother Luo Tian, ​​why are those people laughing at us like that? Does the legendary Sky Island really not exist?"

Luo Tian looked at the two innocent little girls, smiled slightly, and patiently explained:

"Because people's cognitive level has certain limitations. Most people are used to looking at things according to their inherent thinking patterns and are unwilling to easily believe things that are beyond their daily experience."

"Therefore, many people will instinctively doubt or even ridicule the existence of Sky Island and Golden Land."

"But in reality, the real world is far more vast and wondrous than they imagine! These people have simply been living in their own narrow little world."

Anna Angela nodded as if she understood, but it was unclear whether she had understood Luo Tian's words. Tesoro was also pondering Luo Tian's words, while Dan looked at Luo Tian, ​​not expecting that his captain could say something so profound.

"Can I knock them away, Luo Tian?"

Yamato was getting angry as he listened to the taunts and ridicule, and he gripped the spiked club tightly in his hand.

Upon hearing Yamato's words, Hawkeye looked at Luo Tian and began to reach for the black knife behind his back.

Luo Tian didn't say anything, but he waved to them as he walked out of the tavern.

They instantly understood what Luo Tian meant.

"boom"

Yamato and Hawkeye attacked simultaneously, each striking once, turning the entire tavern into ruins, with blood slowly seeping from the cracks.
