Chapter 347: One Year and Role Swapping (6K votes requested)
People are different at every age, including imagination in childhood, energy and vitality in youth, creativity in youth, composure in middle age, and life experience in old age.
Since the fruits of age can affect both physiology and psychology, in addition to the life experience in old age, it can basically bring about other things.
Although Ji Xing has experienced various states after experiencing the invasion of many worlds, no one would object to gaining more insights, especially the insights gained by ‘Holo’ in the pirate world.
After listening to Ji Xing's story, Hawkeye recalled his childhood knife training life, became interested, and looked at Bonnie.
Bonnie, who had been unchained, still had a face full of resistance, saying: "It is absolutely impossible for me to be a maid! Use my ability to help you practice... I can agree, but not for too long, one month! Let me go after one month Kill me!"
“One year,” Ji Xing said.
"impossible…"
"Don't refuse in a hurry. You can think about the gains and losses seriously." Ji Xing said: "You are not at a disadvantage. In this year, all you need to do is to use your ability to assist us and carry out daily cleaning, washing and cooking, especially cooking Most of the food will go into your stomach.
What you can get is to pay off the five million beli you owe me, a year's food supply, and more importantly, occasionally get our guidance.
You want to go to sea, right? Have you heard of Armed Color Haki and Knowledge Color Haki? Search the sea, and you will never find two people like us to be your teachers. If it weren't for your abilities, no one else would be able to get this opportunity. "
Boni paused and looked at the two of them.
The world's greatest swordsman, and the 'Unknown Swordsman' who became famous some time ago. These may be the two strongest swordsmen in the world... With the guidance of these two people, even if Bonnie has never used a sword, Now I want to practice sword practice...
After a long time, she gritted her teeth and said: "One year, one year, one year, we agreed to let me go after one year!"
Ji Xing smiled and said, "It's a deal."
After the dust settled, Eagle Eye once again turned his attention to Ji Xing. Ji Xing sensed his invitation to fight and did not refuse. It was just right that he wanted to fight before the next stage of practice!
…
In the next hour, Kraygana Island was once again enveloped by various roars and shock waves. The baboons were shivering, and the poor island once again lost a corner of it forever.
The result of the second official battle between Ji Xing and Hawkeye was a tie. In terms of swordsmanship alone, Hawkeye is still two points ahead of Ji Xing, but combined with his footwork and skills, Ji Xing is able to regain this disadvantage.
If they want to decide the winner, the two need to use all their strength and fight for a longer time, which will inevitably cause permanent damage to the other party.
“It seems that you won’t be able to take the position of the world’s greatest swordsman for a long time, Hawkeye.”
Facing Ji Xing’s teasing, Hawkeye’s lips curved into an excited and expectant smile. The long-lost threats and challenges made his blood boil.
“I won’t be easily surpassed by you.”
Boni, who stayed in the palace, saw that the expressions of the two people returning from chatting and laughing were no longer natural. Is this the monster standing at the top of the sea? He would exaggerate to such an extent, are he still human?
She bit her lip gently, forcing herself not to show flinching, and said dissatisfied: "Lunch is ready, you two are too slow, next time it's so late, I will eat it by myself!"
“You didn’t eat first?” Ji Xing said.
Bonnie's face turned dark. Thinking about it, she didn't dare... "Stop being so verbose and hurry up!"
After lunch, energy is restored.
Ji Xing and Yingyan began to practice under the fruit of age for the first time.
Hawkeye transformed into a 16-year-old handsome young man, while Ji Xing returned to 8 years old.
Ji Xing, who has used APTX4896 to practice three times from the age of 8 to 18 in Kexue World, is very familiar with this age, and the 8-year-old boy in the Pirate World is more Kexue than the Kexue World.
The black knife Li Wushuang, which weighs 23.5 kilograms, is still very light in the hands of an eight-year-old boy who is 140cm tall. He is held by Ji Xing with both hands and performs vertical chops again and again. It is slowly hanging on a tree facing him more than ten meters away. White marks appear slowly!
As Ji Xing slashed, the figure of another boy seemed to gradually overlap with him, punching and kicking, practicing karate, and defeating pistols, sniper rifles, submachine guns, and helicopters step by step, until Gin committed suicide in front of his eyes!
A purple-black overlord color enveloped the body, rapidly expanding outwards and climbing straight up!
When a thunder crackled in the sky, the tree directly in front also exploded!
Hawkeye who was practicing swordsmanship in the distance unexpectedly glanced sideways. Wasn't he practicing swordsmanship? Why has the overlord color been improved?
Bonnie, who was still eating Haese, choked on the piece of meat and coughed repeatedly, shaking her head.
Ji Xing compared the blade with an unexpected smile: "Is this okay?"
Shanks' example tells Ji Xing that Overlord Color will be significantly improved due to a person's experience, status, and strength. Ji Xing's current Overlord Color intensity comes from his experience in Ten Thousand Kingdoms, and from his belief that he can be powerful. Convinced.
But for the intruder Ji Xing, his experience goes far beyond this point in the pirate world.
That strong confidence was brought about by his climb to the top in various worlds, and by his combat power that surpassed the limits of the pirate world. However, currently, it is only this 'result' that has been transformed into Overlord Color, without any experience. , otherwise Ji Xing’s overbearing beauty should be stronger than anyone else’s!
Now, using the sense of substitution brought by the fruits of age, "passing" begins to regain consciousness.
Ji Xingqi’s heart gradually came back.
Ishiba Sizao, Shangxi Shiyekong, Yono Masashi, Dunan Isbadli, and Li He will all turn into his strength, adding color to his overlord look and domineering bit by bit.
Bring Ji Xing to the top!
…
This time, Ji Xing stayed on Krayjana Island for seven days before returning to Xiaochao Village on the boat that carried ingredients to Hawkeye.
After returning home, he heard a piece of news that surprised him immediately: "Have you been promoted again?"
The former Chief Sheriff of Tide Island was recruited by the upper management, and due to the excellent security of Xiaochao Village in the past year, Ji Xing was promoted to Chief Sheriff!
He took office happily after a slight surprise.
Since then, the territory he manages has increased from one village to five villages and one town, protecting the safety of a total of more than 60,000 people on the tidal island. The number of guards under his command has also increased from six to a full 74!
At the Naval Headquarters, Marshal Warring States had been paying attention to Ji Xing, the ‘unknown swordsman’, and soon waited for a report from Major General Lanes of G19 Base.
"After taking over the position of Chief Sheriff of Tidal Island, Jolo immediately held a competition among the guards of Tidal Island. The strong ones were promoted and the weak ones were eliminated. Except for the position of Sheriff of Xiaochao Village, which he still held concurrently, the positions of the other four villages were also held by him. Sheriffs have been replaced.
Two of them were Xiaochao Village guards who followed him to practice swordsmanship. One was named Rexidan and the other was Fedorenko. They passed the competition with dignity and reached the end. They both seemed to have good talents, but it was a pity that they could not be recruited as sailors.
In the next few days, Holo personally led a team to clean up the entire island. The gangsters, thieves and illegal shops on the streets were basically controlled, and the environment on the island became better. Quite a few.
But just like before, after discovering that the Crow Pirates were preparing to plunder the island, he did not take action. Instead, he notified us through a phone bug. I led people to arrest all members of the Crow Pirates.
Today he seems to have taken a boat to Krayjana Island where Eagle Eye is located. Marshal Sengoku, next time we encounter a similar situation, should the G19 base slow down its operations and let him deal with the pirates? "
"No, it's not necessary. It's enough to continue to have such contact with him." Warring States said.
"yes!"
“Thank you, Major General Rannells.”
Hanging up the phone, Sengoku couldn't help but smile a little. Even though it's just about controlling illegal shops and gangsters, pirates also need the navy to fight, but in fact, the vast majority of people who will eventually become pirates are just such gangsters. I don't know. When he was spotted by a passing pirate, he boarded the ship.
This can be regarded as eradicating it from the source.
And when he encounters those very troublesome pirates, as long as he is around, he will not stand idly by.
Hawkeye of the Shichibukai would occasionally run around hunting pirates and navy, which gave him a headache. This young great swordsman who is similar to Hawkeye can be such a down-to-earth defender of the security of an island, an important island in the great shipping route. Taisheng Heartbroken.
"Xiaohe, you still have a way. If every island can have a peace officer like him, the era of great pirates will be completely over, right?"
Lieutenant General He looked at him silently.
Sengoku slapped his head, thinking what nonsense he was talking about, returning every island, with twenty people like this in the navy, the era of great pirates would be over.
“Well, I have been too busy during this period. It seems that I really should take a good rest.”
Lieutenant General He said: "Don't forget, the war between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Beast Pirates is now considered to be caused by him. It was the war caused by Kaido's daughter he brought out from Wano Country."
Zhenguo nodded: "That's true."
More than a month is enough for the intelligence department of the world government to find out the reasons for the war between the two emperors, and even enough for the country of Wano to plant the white beard flag.
That’s right, Kaido was defeated again.
It is a matter of course that he cannot defeat Whitebeard. If Yinhe and White Lion were still there, there might be a fight, but now their combat power is at a disadvantage in all aspects.
The country of Wano was occupied by Whitebeard. The navy still doesn’t know what is happening inside now. They are paying close attention to Whitebeard who continues to hunt Kaido, and Bigmom who seems to be ready to reach an agreement with Kaido.
“The remnants of the Rocks Pirates…”
Fortunately, at least the three people who were once part of the Rocks Pirates cannot all unite now, and they are sworn enemies.
But this is not the time when the marshal can rest.
Zeng Guo sighed, picked up the phone, and dialed again.
Time flies, and it passes by inadvertently while holding the phone in the Warring States Period. In the blink of an eye, another half year has passed, and the time has arrived in August 1516 in the Haiyuan calendar.
Sengoku put down the phone bug and said to the crane next to him: "Sure enough, the new world has settled down. Red Hair has gone to Kra Island to find Hawkeye and Hollow again. I hope Hollow will not get on Red Hair's ship again this time."
…
Krayjana Island.
When red hair comes, there will be a banquet.
He laughed and raised his glass and said, "You two guys have made a lot of progress during this time."
When the three of them met, they first had a friendly competition, which allowed the red-haired man to easily see that the two of them had practiced secretly while he was away.
Hawkeye is still the same, just nodding, clinking glasses and taking a sip. Ji Xing smiled and said: "You have become a lot stronger. If you face Kaido again, it won't be as difficult as last time."
“Of course I did,” Ji Xing said.
The Beast Pirates were chased and beaten by the Whitebeard Pirates, and their territory was constantly being eroded. However, Kaido was extremely tenacious and endured beatings. He managed to hold on for more than three months. After being beaten for more than three months, Bigmom suddenly took action. The two of them jointly drove Whitebeard back, and the Whitebeard Pirates were also a little tired, so the war finally ended for the time being.
This result is not surprising to Ji Xing.
“How is Yamato doing?”
"She is already the captain of Whitebeard's Second Division. I met her once two months ago, and she is still the same. She even asked me to bring you greetings." Ji Xing said unexpectedly: "She didn't do anything after driving Kaido away. Returning to Wano Country? Doesn’t she want to be a general?”
The red-haired man shook his head: "Maybe he was beaten back by Whitebeard's fist? Hahaha..."
Ji Xing could imagine the scene and couldn't help but laugh. After clinking a drink with the red-haired man, he changed his mouth and said, "By the way, I discovered it last time in Wano Country. Your sword is not a black sword, but when you fight with all your strength, it will be covered with a layer of bright yellow. I thought it was The characteristics of the knife, but it became more obvious during this sparring session, what is it?"
The red-haired man was startled: "You don't know?" He and Hawkeye looked at each other, and Hawkeye also showed a bit of surprise.
Ji Xing clicked his tongue: "I am only 19 years old this year. I grew up on a tidal island. I have never seen the world. I have to rely on myself to practice. I have some guesses about that, but I don't have a teacher to teach me. So I don't know. Is it weird?"
Red Hair and Hawkeye looked strange at the same time.
You guy... Although what you said is correct, why does it sound so awkward?
"The black sword is not the common end that every swordsman pursues. It is just one of the ends." The red-haired man shook his head and explained: "Different swordsmen and different sword powers will cause different domineering effects on the blade. Performance, of course, there are not many swordsmen in the whole sea who can express it significantly.
There are very few black knives, but they are already considered the most common among them. They are tempered with pure armament color, and their characteristic is hardness. Black knives are tougher than any other knives. And the sword like mine is a sword that can absorb the overlord color and increase the attack power.
There is also the white-bearded captain of the 5th division, Foil Bista, who can affect the appearance of things. The late swordsman Ryoma can increase sharpness..."
"It's true..." Ji Xing thought thoughtfully. Is this the prototype of Sauron's ghostly aura in the future?
“Then the tempered black sword can have other attributes?” He asked again.
Hawkeye replied: "I have heard about it, but it seems that it needs to be combined with forging technology. For example, the supreme fast sword with twelve skills, the demon sword Oni Tetsu, and the great fast sword with twenty-one skills, the black sword Enma, have more characteristics, and even have The spirit can choose the master.
But that kind of thing may not be an aid to a swordsman’s practice. "
Ji Xing lowered his head and looked at Li Wushuang, thoughtfully. The aura on his body changed, and a ferocious aura filled the blade. It was gone in an instant, but it also made the red-haired hawk-eyed man next to him change his eyes.
“Holo, what are you...”
“It’s okay, I have some new ideas. I’ll give it a try in the next period of time.” Ji Xing said.
At this moment, a burst of noise suddenly broke out not far away, attracting the attention of the three people.
“Hahahaha, that’s awesome. Lackey actually lost in a competition with others for food intake?!”
“Yes, such a delicious girl...”
“Reminds me of Luffy, hahaha…”
Luffy? The red-haired girl looked at the long, straight pink-haired Bonnie who was messing around, then turned around and asked, "By the way, what's going on with this girl?"
Ji Xing explained her origin.
"The fruit of age? A magical ability." The red-haired man suddenly said loudly, thoughtfully.
"Is this Qiao Ellie Bonny? Do you want to board the ship of our red-haired pirates?"
Bonnie’s biting movements stopped and she was stunned for two seconds. She looked at Hawkeye and Ji Xing, shook her head and said, “No, I refuse!”
"Hahaha…"
“The boss was rejected without hesitation!”
“Shame on you, Yonko!”
The red-haired man shook his head with a smile, picked up the wine glass again, and exchanged glances with Ji Xing: "Forget it, come on, cheers, Eagle Eye!"
Seeing Yingyan taking another sip, Ji Xing pretended to be dissatisfied: "Yingyan, what are you doing here to raise fish? We've all had several drinks, and you haven't finished one yet?"
What is fish farming? Hawkeye was startled and looked at Hongfa and Ji Xing with awareness.
“You...want to get me drunk?”
The red hair paused and laughed dryly: "How could..."
Ji Xing laughed and said, "Yes, we made an appointment in Wano Country. Next time we get together, I will get you drunk. Drink quickly."
Eagle Eyes smiled and drank it all in one gulp.
The red-haired man couldn't help but sigh: "You two get along really well... Come on, come again!"
The lively banquet lasted all day.
As night fell, in the castle, the crew members of the red-haired pirates were all drunk.
Bonnie helped Hawkeye, who was staggering and struggling to stay awake, back to the room, and complained: "Tsk, the world's greatest swordsman is so heavy when he is drunk, he is no different from ordinary people."
“Hmm…” Hawkeye agreed.
The red-haired man outside rubbed his red face, shook his head and said, "I've known for a long time that a guy like Hawkeye won't show any ugly behavior even when he's drunk."
“What do you expect, aren’t you afraid that he will wake up and hack us to death tomorrow?” Ji Xing said with a smile.
"Haha..." The red-haired man couldn't help but smile and said to Ji Xing: "Going for a walk?"
“Okay, let’s go for a walk and wake up.”
The two of them went out side by side, and when they were blown by the cool sea breeze, they immediately sobered up a lot.
"That girl named Bonnie, there should be some secrets about her." The red-haired person said, "You and Hawkeye should be careful. The age fruit... this kind of ability can easily attract the covetousness of others."
"I know." Ji Xing said, "As long as we are strong enough, we will not encounter danger."
"That's right." The red-haired man smiled and said, "If you encounter any trouble, please contact me at any time."
“Is this the confidence of the Yonko?”
"Ha ha ha ha…"
While joking and chatting, the two gradually walked to the coast. The red-haired man complained: "I remember that the palace was not so close to the coast originally? If you two fight more, this island will be gone."
"No, the island is thicker toward the center. The edges are easy to damage, but the middle is difficult." Ji Xing said.
"Really, that's good." The red-haired man looked at the endless ocean and suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Speaking of which, Holo, what is your dream? To practice like this, become stronger, and become a peace officer?"
Ji Xing asked back: "What about you? Just occupy a sea area in the new world and become the four emperors?"
"Of course not." The red-haired man said, "My dream... is to be free, to be unrestrained on the sea. This is also a dream shared by pirates."
"What a coincidence, I am also free." Ji Xing looked at him: "A little more free than you."
…
The next day, Navy Headquarters.
"The red hair left. Did Holo not get on the boat, but returned to the tidal island by boat? Okay, I understand." Warring States put down the phone and showed a relieved smile.
Time flies by, and it passed by inadvertently when there was no phone in hand during the Warring States Period. In the blink of an eye, another half year passed, and the time came to February 1517 in the Haiyuan calendar.
Amidst the ringing of Buru Bulu, Warring States picked up the phone: "What? Strange eagle... Okay, you contact Holo and ask him if he has seen it..."
Hang up the phone, Warring States felt a little confused.
In the past month, a strange creature that always hovers in the sky has appeared in the sea around the tidal island? Just some strange bird...
The sea area between tidal islands and Kra Island.
Ji Xing said on Hawkeye's ghostly boat, "I'll send you here, Hawkeye. I wish you a fruitful trip."
“Well, don’t give up your sword practice, Holo. I’ll challenge you when we meet again.”
Ji Xing smiled and said: "Okay, I, Huo Luo, the world's greatest swordsman, look forward to your challenge!"
Hawkeye instantly recalled the first time the two met, how he accepted Ji Xing's challenge, and now that his identity has been reversed, he couldn't help but smile.
Bonnie, who was rowing the boat, secretly said, "The title of the world's greatest swordsman has been taken away by this guy. Are you still laughing?" How stupid.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that the weight on the other side of the ship was gone. She couldn't help but raise her head, and sure enough, she saw Ji Xing wrapped in strange wings, turning into a strange bird, rising into the sky, flying higher and higher.
Even though it was not the first time she saw it, she still felt it was a bit magical. Although she was not a person with abilities, she could borrow strange things to fly. The speed of the ship was too different from this kind of thing...
"Hawkeye, can't you help me? I can row the boat, when can we reach the South China Sea!"
Hawkeye said calmly: "I didn't say I would send you to the South China Sea. It was you who had to follow me - one year came last month."
“…” Bonnie rowed like crazy.
Ji Xing, who was hovering in a wingsuit in the sky, watched as the paddle in Bonnie's hand made clear waves, allowing Hawkeye's boat to sail into the distance.
Turning the direction joystick and pressing a certain button, a blue flame shot out from the tail of the wing suit, and Ji Xing streaked across the sky like a shooting star, heading straight for the tidal island.
To cope with the wind and waves on the sea, just a hang glider is definitely not enough. It took Ji Xing half a year to finally build this simple single-person aircraft. From Kra Island to Tidal Island, the original two-day voyage is now only It takes one hour.
“Several tests have been successful, and we can try to fly to farther sea areas.”
Time in training always flies by very quickly. If all lives are counted, it has been two and a half years since we invaded the pirate world!
Something happened at home, so I’ll do a two-in-one update today. The first update tomorrow will be in the underworld, but I may have to go there again in the afternoon, so the second update will depend on the situation... Well, I’m sorry, please vote.
