Chapter 332 First Encounter with Hawkeye

After practicing knife with Ji Xing for a month, Abei felt that he had been reborn and could beat twenty of his past selves.

I don't walk with my chest hunched over like before, my back is straight, my energy is improved, my eyes are several times sharper than before, and I can keenly feel that everyone looks at me differently.

I didn't say it was disgust before, at least it was dislike and dislike. Even after being beaten up by the boss of Hollow a few times, it didn't change much, but after persisting for a month, everyone's eyes on me gradually became more friendly. stand up.

Especially a few days ago, he caught a thief who came from the town with his own hands, returned the Pele stolen by the other party to the owner, and felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction under a compliment.

It turns out that this is what a glorious village guard should do. Although I can't reach the level of a security officer like the boss, I can still do my part to maintain the law and order of Xiaochao Village!

Wearing the uniform of a guard and walking on the street, he holds a knife with both hands, swinging it in the air from time to time, performing no-knife training. At the same time, he observes the surroundings with sharp eagle-like eyes to see if there is anyone who dares to make trouble or plans to make trouble in Xiaochao Village people.

Suddenly, he found a suspicious target walking towards him!

White fluffy black top hat, black boots, black windbreaker, black mustache.

This dress up, appearance and painting style are different from normal people, and the return rate is almost 100%.

The eyes of the two parties met in the air, and Abei looked at it for a moment, then turned sideways to get out of the way, but he hummed in his heart: "The corners of the eyes are raised high, and the pupils are retracted to keep calm. According to the skills of recognizing people taught by the boss, this is in line with Thief-eyed and somewhat guilty, this person needs to be paid attention to! '

Hawkeye walked past Abe: 'Guards? He recognized me, but he didn't seem to have any. He had some strange expressions and reactions, but his eyes were good. He seemed to be doing no-knife training before, is he a swordsman? '

He didn't care. In his eyes, there are only two types of people in this world, swordsmen and non-swordsmen. There are as many people who know how to use swordsmanship as a cow. He soon came to a large grocery store selling daily necessities, and there was a surprise in his eyes.

There is also a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in the shop who is doing knife training. Although she lacks strength, her movements and posture are decent, and more importantly, her appearance is familiar to Hawkeye.

'That portrait...the princess of the subjugated country? '

"Nata! There are guests, stop practicing!"

Inside the store, the fat aunt Kirsty who brought her own swimming ring noticed Hawkeye and came out to greet her: "Customer, what do you need?"

Nata quickly put away the knife, wiped off her sweat, ran out and waited aside.

"Can you deliver the goods? I need a lot of things." Hawkeye thought for a while and asked.

Aunt Kirsty's smile became more sincere: "If you spend more than 100,000 Baileys, we can send the goods to any place on the island for free."

"10 million Baileys." Eagle Eye said, "Can you find a boat to send the things to Kraigana Island, which is two days away from this island?"

10 million? ! Aunt Kirsty, who had never done such a large business in her life, suddenly brightened her eyes, and vaguely felt that the place name was a little familiar, but Nata's face turned pale in an instant.

"Kraigana Island? You...you are..."

"Is it really the princess of the Kingdom of Sitzkeal? It turns out that there are still survivors in that kingdom."

Princess? This guy knows Nata? ! Aunt Kirsty stared for a moment, trying to protect Nata behind her, but was dragged aside by Nata.

She pulled out the knife nervously, adjusted her breathing according to the method taught by Ji Xing, and made a hostile gesture: "Who the hell are you?!"

"Nata..." Aunt Kirsty said worriedly.

"Nata! Don't be afraid!" At this moment, another loud shout sounded not far away, and Abe jumped out with a knife in his hand, humming: "This guy really has bad intentions! Nata, Aunt Kirsty, you Let's go find Boss Hollow, I'll subdue him first!"

"Brother Abe." Nata was overjoyed: "Someone has already gone, let me help you!"

Abei looked left and right, and saw that there were indeed enthusiastic people running towards the old master. He smiled lightly, and he was safe.

"No need, Nata, it's enough to leave it to me, you protect Aunt Kirsty!"

Hawkeye looked at Abe, and said in a calm voice, "Young swordsman, I have no malicious intentions. I just happened to see the portrait of this girl to confirm her identity. Also, don't point your blade at me at will. When one swordsman shows his blade to another swordsman, it means the beginning of a fight to the death."

"Don't move!" Abe yelled: "Stand where you are! What a mess, save your sophistry to Boss Hollow. If you dare to move a step, don't blame me for being rude!"

Hawkeye was silent for two seconds, turned around, looked at Nata and Kirsty, and walked into the grocery store: "I'm just here to buy something."

"I told you not to move!" Abe was furious, and rushed over with a knife.

...

When Ji Xing arrived at the news, the pale-faced and unconscious Abei was already lying in front of the door of the grocery store. A slanted knife edge was connected from his chest to his waist, and the blood stained half of his body red. Nata and Aunt Kirsty were hastily bandaging him to stop the bleeding.

"Holo!"

"Brother Sheriff!"

"You're finally here..." The surrounding villagers called out in surprise when they saw Ji Xing.

"Boss, boss..." Seeing Ji Xing, Abe greeted Ji Xing with difficulty.

Ji Xing nodded reassuringly, looked at Abei's injury and said, "Has anyone gone to see a doctor?"

"Molan has gone." Some of the surrounding villagers said angrily, "The person who injured Abe is still in Kirsty's shop!"

"Boss... cough, be careful..." Abei said with a pale face, "That man is very powerful, my knife was cut off by him at once...I, I might die, I'm sorry, I embarrass you... ..."

Ji Xing smiled: "Your injury will only leave a scar at most, and three more cuts will almost kill you. And you are not ashamed, this scar will be your honor for the rest of your life."

Hearing that he would not die, Abei's eyes lit up, his face turned rosy, and he was startled again, and asked strangely, "Honor?"

"Ah." Before Ji Xing came, he only heard that someone was making trouble in Aunt Kirsty's shop, and only after he came did he know who the 'troublemaker' was.

The familiar clothes and black knife, eye-catching appearance, once you have seen it, you will not remember it wrong.

The appearance of the world's number one swordsman here made Ji Xing very surprised, and a little stunned: 'I said that the Hitzkeal Kingdom has a vague feeling that it is waiting for me here. '

Choose the big stomach king to start and send yourself to the vicinity of Wan Guo, choose the big swordsman to start as a neighbor with Hawkeye, which is very reasonable.

In the end, he couldn't escape the fate arranged by the Seven Star Orb. In fact, every time he invaded the Seven Star Orb, he would always do it for his own good, regardless of whether Ji Xing could bear it or not... such as meeting Hui Ye and Lan Ran by chance.

He looked around and said, "Thank you for your enthusiasm. Next is the work of the sheriff and the guards. Let's leave first, so don't hurt you!"

The villagers had the guts to stand up for Abenata and the others, and they knew how to measure what they said, so they dispersed after sending a few words of worry and thanks.

Aunt Kirsty was also signaled by Ji Xing to stay away. Ji Xing said to Abbe and Nata, "I should tell you about this man when I teach you how to practice knives. The world's number one swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, the pinnacle of all swordsmen."

"...No. 1 in the world?" Abe was at a loss.

"Eagle-eyed Mihawk? That's him?!" Nata exclaimed, "I, I've heard of him..."

As she said that, her face turned pale, and Abe hurriedly confirmed: "Number one in the world? That is to say... that bastard, no, cough, the man who injured me is the strongest among all the swordsmen? Could it be, is it better than the swordsman?" Boss Hollow, are you still good?!"

"Of course." Ji Xing said with a smile: "He is number one in the world, but I am not."

Abe opened his mouth wide in an instant, it's broken!

I, what have I done?

If you don't understand other things, can you still understand the four words "No. 1 in the world"? It's amazing to be the number one in the world in anything, let alone being the number one swordsman in the world. He couldn't even imagine what kind of strong man that is, but I swung my sword at him...? !

Why am I still alive? !

"Boss, boss... I, I, I caused trouble for you... You, don't worry about it..."

"It's me, it's because he recognized me, Brother Abe..." Nata said hastily.

"It's really a bit of a headache." Ji Xing shook his head and said, "Tell me the story first, Abe."

Abe panicked and spoke incoherently, but Nata quickly explained all the reasons and said sadly: "I caused trouble for the village again..."

"It's okay." Ji Xing rubbed Nata's head: "We don't cause trouble, and we're not afraid of trouble. Except that Abe was a little impulsive and did not distinguish the difference in strength between the enemy and us, there is nothing wrong with doing it. It's all right, Nata."

"Boss..." Abei was instantly moved to tears. I provoked the world's number one swordsman for the village, and the boss still comforted me?

So gentle, Boss Hollow!

"Keep your snot and tears away, wipe me and kill you." Ji Xing raised his eyebrows.

A chill hit the top of his head, and Abe dodged back in horror for an instant, but the wound cracked a little again, and he screamed.

"Brother Abe!" Nata panicked.

Ji Xing smiled and looked towards the grocery store.

He could go back and forth for half a month to avoid the trouble of conflicting with Doflamingo, but now that he suddenly faced Hawkeye who was several times stronger, after the initial surprise and helplessness, he was quite open.

There is no point in blaming Abbe, not to mention that Abbe's behavior is indeed not a major problem.

"Hawkeye Mihawk, my little brother was just doing his duty as a guard in Xiaochao Village when he swung a knife at you, and he was also worried about Nata. It's okay to swing a knife at you, the world's number one swordsman, and get cut. Should, for the sake of him not knowing and being injured again, can you forgive him for his recklessness?"

Abbe stopped moaning and whining immediately, and listened nervously with staring eyes... The boss is the boss, and he is very calm when talking to the world's number one swordsman.

Hawkeye walked out with a bag full of daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, paper, etc. Hawkeye circled Ji Xing's face and said, "Young swordsman, do you know me? You taught him his swordsmanship." What? The foundation is far from solid enough to be considered a qualified swordsman."

"He's only been studying for a month," Ji Xing said.

"I see." Hawkeye nodded: "That's not bad...I lived in the old site of the Kingdom of Sitzkeal a few days ago, thinking that the country had completely perished, and I didn't expect to see the princess who died here. I only confirmed one sentence, and it seems that there have been some unnecessary misunderstandings."

He belongs to the lawful neutral camp, he will cut down a bunch of pirates because his sleep was disturbed, and he will condescendingly send a few explanations because of this unnecessary misunderstanding and conflict.

"I've lived there..." Nata murmured softly, and when she realized it, she said excitedly, "Did the portraits of me, my father, and the others not be destroyed by the rebels?"

"It's a little worn, but you can still see it. You can get it if you want." Hawkeye didn't intend to give up the address, and replied, looking at Ji Xing again: "You are the Holo he said, the security of this village Officer? I'm just here to buy things, can you help me arrange a cargo ship, fill it with the goods I want, and send it to Kela Island?"

"Of course, as long as you give enough money, Aunt Kirsty will arrange it." Ji Xing laughed.

"But there is one more thing. Although it may be a little late, but I have encountered them all, and it would be impolite to hide deliberately, and it may hinder the improvement of my swordsmanship and domineering. I will personally deliver the goods you want to Let's have a sparring match with you, the world's number one swordsman."

Huh? Boss... is this going to challenge the world's number one swordsman? Abe swallowed, and Nata was also taken aback: "Brother Sheriff..."

The gap between the sheriff of a small village and the world's number one swordsman is too far. Even if Ji Xing has shown extraordinary strength, the two don't think he has the strength to challenge each other.

Hawkeye thought the same way, so he was silent for a few seconds, and reached for the pocket sword on his chest, but at the same time, Ji Xing also put his hand on the hilt, so Hawkeye's movements suddenly stopped. Stop and look again.

There is no way to see through the opponent's strength at a glance, and Pirate World does not have a combat power detector, which is strong and which is weak, basically through battles and records.

But when Ji Xing held the handle of the knife and leaked his breath, Hawkeye had a feeling that if he only used the decorative knife, he would even lose!

This is a rare situation, even if the world's number one swordsman is holding a spoon, he can still slash Duanshan's flying slash.

His goshawk-like pupils seemed to see through Ji Xing, and he was silent for a long time.

"Young swordsman, what is your age?"

"18 years old." Ji Xing said.

Hawkeye stretched out his hand and grabbed the handle of the black knife. The pocket in his hand fell to the ground. He poked his body and rushed towards Ji Xing!

He is not a self-confessed person, or in other words, as long as he faces a swordsman who is recognized by him and can use a knife, it is normal for the world's number one swordsman to take the initiative to attack the opponent, so Sauron was recognized in the original work. Long is so miserable.

He didn't sprint with all his strength, he didn't use any skills, he just ran, but with those sharp eyes, he still preyed like a goshawk!

Seeing this, Nata opened her mouth slightly, and Abe's face turned paler: "Boss, be careful!"

Huh——The black knife outlining broken flowers and chaotic blades slashed through the air with a whistling wind, and slashed heavily towards Ji Xing!

Ji Xing buckled the knife backhand, drew the knife and slashed!

clang--

The blue-white blade collided with the black blade, echoing like the crisp song of an oriole!

In an instant, strong winds blew out, and Nata's black hair flew up, she quickly lowered her head to cover her face, and the moment she lowered her head, her vision seemed to be a little blurred, and she felt that the shadows of the two knives changed. There are many layers, and the shock is constant!

Actually read it right.

A powerful swordsman can often send out a series of powerful attacks through small movements and vibrations of the knife. This method is not very useful for evenly matched opponents, but it is the easiest thing to test the level of others.

When Hawkeye's wrist vibrated slightly, streams of sword energy came out of the hole like a snake, reaching out to suppress Ji Xing's knife. Ji Xing looked calm, but also in the same way and at the same rhythm.

Crackling——

In the sound of exploding firecrackers, the sparks produced by the collision of gold and iron in the square inch of the ground burst out, as bright as fireworks. After three seconds, the two knives rubbed against each other to make a piercing sound, and collided again. Once, separate!

There was a distance of two knives between them, and neither of them backed away. The hat Hawkeye was wearing was not blown away by the strong wind, and Ji Xing's hairstyle was not messed up by the collision.

The two pairs of eyes looked at each other.

It roared like a thunderclap.

As sharp as a goshawk hunting.

After a while, Hawkeye took two steps back, inserted the knife back into his back, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's amazing, when I was 18 years old, I was far from your level, and you are still hidden in this sea." Such a young and powerful swordsman, a swordsman like you has been unknown, hiding in this kind of village as a security officer."

Nata with messy hair raised her head in a daze, and Abe felt that her injuries were healed.

What, what do you mean? My boss...

"Everyone has their own aspirations." Ji Xing replied, "I don't want to be famous so early and cause all kinds of troubles. And what happened to the sheriff? It is also very meaningful to protect a village."

Hawkeye took the path of one person, one sword, and one sword for life, but as the world's number one swordsman, he did not reject other types of swordsmen, so he just nodded when he heard the words, and then stepped back two step, with a calm and solemn tone:

"I, the world's number one swordsman, Joracle Mihawk, accept your challenge!"

Every month at the end of the month, I have to pull my hips. The state of these two days is really bad, and I can't survive with 4800 characters. Be cheeky and ask for a monthly pass. Since the 29th is Siyang’s 28th birthday, let’s get two monthly passes!
