Chapter 498 - The Man Who Challenges the World’s Strongest Swordsman!
What kind of organization was Akatsuki…?
Mihawk also secretly paid attention to it.
The first member of the Akatsuki Organization who took the initiative to appear in the sea, Uchiha Itachi, was actually able to use a strange ability and couldn’t help but leave a deep impression on Mihawk.
But now…
Mihawk only had one thought.
This Akatsuki Organization was a little too petty.
In the beginning, he didn’t know about Akatsuki Organization and just said a word casually. Then the leader of the Akatsuki Organization came over specially to find fault with him?
This leader…
Wasn’t he a little narrow-minded?
Was this guy really the leader of the Akatsuki Organization?
In this sea, the real experts and the leaders of the big forces were all broad-minded men who could even accommodate the sea, but the leader of Akatsuki Organization in front of him was really too narrow-minded…
Akatsuki has never made a name for themselves in the sea. This so-called leader should also be one of the main reasons…
“Mr. Mihawk, your expression is a little rude…”
Uehara’s figure suddenly disappeared in front of Mihawk. His voice echoed in the warship cabin, “Do you really think I am the kind of narrow-minded person?”
As the supreme leader of a powerful organization that spanned across two worlds, how could Uehara come looking for trouble with him just because of a single sentence from Mihawk?
It was just a coincidence…
This time, Uehara personally went to intercept Mihawk. Apart from completing some side mission on Mihawk, the most important goal was to control this Shichibukai in his own hands!
After all…
This was also a figure who could stand in the War of the Best in the future!
The next moment, Uehara suddenly appeared in front of Mihawk and kicked him with a heavy kick, forcing this swordsman to take a few steps back!
Mihawk stared at Uehara, who suddenly appeared. He was amazed by his speed and could only hurriedly raise the black sword in his hand to defend!
“So fast…”
Bang!
Uehara kicked the black sword!
The sound of metal striking metal spread throughout the cabin!
Just by kicking, he had the strength to contend with the black sword!
Mihawk and his black sword were directly kicked out, creating a big hole in the cabin!
“Sorry for the trouble…”
Mihawk frowned and stretched out his black sword, wanting to directly insert it into the warship and stop his body from flying out!
“Too naive…”
As Uehara spoke, a flash of light entered Mihawk’s eyes. It was a fruit knife in the kitchen!
The fruit knife flashed through Mihawk’s eyes, forcing him to raise his head and dodge the knife. Otherwise, his eyes would be directly scratched!
Uehara flipped his wrist and threw the fruit knife to the ground. The next second, his palm turned into a fist. While Mihawk raised his head and retreated, he punched at Mihawk’s chest!
Bang!
Even though Mihawk raised his black sword and tried to defend himself, he was still punched in the chest. This Shichibukai was sent flying to the surface of the sea!
“Don’t worry.”
Uehara looked at Mihawk, who had fallen into the sea. He bent down and picked up the fruit knife that had fallen on the deck. He said calmly, “Mr. Mihawk, I will create a fair battlefield so that you can use your full strength…”
Uehara held the fruit knife and flew to the surface of the sea.
The sea began to surge the moment he landed. Wave after wave of waves spread around, and the warship was slowly pushed away by the waves.
As the warship left, the sea began to calm down…
The entire sea region became calm; not even a ripple could be seen on the surface of the sea. It was as if this place was not the sea at all but a pond that had turned into stagnant water.
A gust of cold air landed on the surface of the sea!
The seawater quickly began to freeze, and the temperature rapidly dropped!
“This is…”
Mihawk’s gaze changed. He flew from the sea and stood on the ice. He looked around at his surroundings. Everything he saw was a thick layer of ice!
This sea had completely turned into an icy plain!
‘Was this a completely fair battlefield that that guy had mentioned?’
Mihawk’s expression was a little strange. “If I remember correctly, ice should be the fruit ability of Admiral Aokiji…”
“Don’t care about these details.”
Uehara shook his head indifferently.
“…”
Mihawk’s expression was subtle. Can you use the fruit ability of the Marine Admiral, or were those details that you don’t need to care about?
No one can ignore this power!
Uehara held a fruit knife in his hand and pointed to Mihawk. His face gradually flashed with seriousness, and he whispered, “Mr. Dracule Mihawk, please allow me to challenge you, the world’s strongest swordsman.”
“…”
Mihawk fell silent once again.
After a long time.
The eyes of this swordsman landed on the fruit knife in Uehara’s hand, and he calmly asked, “If I’m not mistaken, the knife in your hand is just an ordinary fruit knife in the kitchen, right?”
Yes, I’m sure I’m not mistaken.
Because the fruit knife was just used by Mihawk when he was cooking, he cut some fruit and made a fruit salad.
This guy…
Using a fruit knife to challenge him, the world’s strongest swordsman?
Was he provoking him…
Or was he deliberately insulting him?
Even if he didn’t have a Great Grade or Skillful Grade Sword around him and just looking for an ordinary sword, he shouldn’t have taken this!
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
Uehara glanced at the fruit knife in his hand, rubbed the space between his eyebrows, and raised his head to look at Hawkeye. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, “Is the fruit knife too big? But I’m really not used to holding a table knife…”
“It’s really… a statement that makes people can’t help but feel angry.”
Mihawk shook his head and sighed. He slowly clenched the Supreme Grade Sword in his hand, and his eyes suddenly became serious!
This guy…
He was definitely provoking him!
“Since you want to humiliate me…”
The Kokuto: Yoru(Black Blade: Night) in Mihawk’s hand instantly flipped over and pointed at Uehara. He said coldly, “Then, are you ready to pay the price for insulting a swordsman? The price of tearing your body into pieces by this strongest Kokuto!”
“Of course…”
Uehara held the fruit knife and rushed toward Mihawk. His voice echoed in the cold night, “With the sharp Kakuto in Mr. Mihawk’s hand, perhaps it can help me cut my nails!”
“Arrogant!”
Mihawk looked coldly at Uehara, who was rushing over. He waved the sword in his hand, and a powerful chop instantly flew toward Uehara!
But…
This guy was indeed qualified to be arrogant and conceited. In this world, not everyone can force him, the strongest swordsman, into the sea in two or three moves!
The leader of Akatsuki…
This name was already worthy of Mihawk using his sword!
The black sword slashed out a powerful slash and flew toward Uehara, but it was directly split apart by the fruit blade in Uehara’s hand!
“Did you use Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki) to wrap around the blade?”
Mihawk saw this scene, and his eyes flashed. He held the black sword in his hand and rushed toward Uehara, “Then let me see how powerful Akatsuki’s leader is!”
Under the moonlight, two figures collided!
Sharp killing intent, and Haki instantly flew out from the sword/knife in their hands and scattered in all directions!
Cracks instantly appeared on the thick ice!
The huge black sword in Mihawk’s hand slammed into the fruit knife in Uehara’s hand and directly cut a crack!
Even if the fruit knife in Uehara’s hand was covered with powerful Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki), it was still unable to resist the sharpness of the world’s strongest Kakuto!
Mihawk’s eyes flashed. He instantly waved the huge black sword in his hand and slashed continuously. A black shadow flashed. It was the blade light of the black sword!
Every slash seemed to want to split Uehara’s body into two directly!
Uehara waved the fruit knife in his hand and continuously blocked the black sword in Mihawk’s hand. The Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki), which was wrapped around the fruit knife, was continuously split apart!
The crack in the fruit knife was getting bigger and bigger!
Even in this kind of situation, the black sword in Mihawk’s hand still fiercely slashed at the same position, and soon the fruit knife was completely cut into pieces!
“If you want to challenge a swordsman…”
Mihawk’s figure flipped. The black sword followed his body and danced in an elegant arc, and a blade light that was almost like a full moon slash flashed!
This slash was so amazing!
No matter where Uehara wanted to hide, he would be under the attack of the black sword. Even if he quickly retreated, he would not be able to avoid this attack!
With Mihawk as the center…
A circular slash suddenly flew toward the surroundings!
The challenge that Uehara issued to the world’s strongest swordsman, Dracule “Hawk Eye” Mihawk, had only started for less than half a minute when his fruit knife was ruthlessly broken by Mihawk!
At this moment…
When Uehara saw this stunning full-moon slash, he thoroughly witnessed the power of the strongest swordsman!
“Truly admirable.”
Uehara extended his finger and pressed it against the incoming full-moon slash. Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki) instantly wrapped around his finger and blocked this almost perfect slash.
“If I had known earlier, I would have found a good knife…”
Uehara glanced at Mihawk, who gracefully withdrew his sword, then glanced at the broken fruit knife in his hand. He sighed faintly and said, “Now that you have cut it off, what should I use to continue fighting…”
“…”
Mihawk waved the giant black sword in his hand. His sharp eyes fell on Uehara and didn’t let down his guard at all!
Because that full moon slash…
It was actually blocked by the man in front of him with a single finger!
Hearing Uehara’s words, Hawkeye looked at the broken fruit knife in Uehara’s hand and coldly said, “Even if you are strong enough, using a knife from the kitchen to challenge a swordsman is still a very stupid thing!”
Especially the person who challenged…
Is the strongest swordsman in this world!
“You are right.”
Uehara looked at Mihawk and slowly nodded. A blue skeleton started to appear on his body, and soon a huge Susanoo instantly wrapped around his body!
Complete Body Susanoo, open!
This 1000-meter-tall Susanoo was like a mountain, and just like this, it stood on the ice surface and appeared in front of Mihawk!
Uehara stood in the crystal on Susanoo’s head and controlled the Susanoo to pull out its ninja blade. A blue slash cut through the darkness and illuminated this sea area!
“This is…”
Mihawk’s eyes flashed with a touch of surprise. He looked up at the 1000-meter-tall Susanoo and muttered in disbelief, “The same strength as Sasuke… No, this strength is stronger than Sasuke!”
Just in terms of body size…
Uehara’s Susanoo was at least 1000 meters high, far surpassing Sasuke’s complete body Susanoo. Even their momentum was like an adult and a child!
Uehara looked down at the shocked Mihawk. He controlled Susanoo to brandish its huge ninja blade, slowly pointing it toward this world’s strongest swordsman…
This huge ninja blade in Susanoo’s hand slowly stopped in front of Mihawk. The ninja blade’s body was like an illusion, glowing with a light blue light. However, the sharp blade light and terrifying aura on it, seemed as if it wanted to pierce the body of a person through the air!
Uehara looked at Mihawk; his unhurried voice resounded on the ice battleground, “Mr. Mihawk, this blade… should be okay, right?”
