Chapter 159 - Pirates: I used a bucket to break Akainu's defense

Naturally, Saka couldn't reply to him.

At this moment, his eyes were purple, staring straight at Cheng Lang, and he increased the strength of his hands.

The Seven Star Sword and the Diamond Sword collided again.

Sparks flew.

Cheng Lang frowned. The opponent's strength was gradually increasing, as if he was gradually unlocking his own power.

And with every collision, Cheng Lang felt the difference in the opponent's strength.

It seems like he is learning how to use the sword bit by bit, or is gradually finding the way to use the sword.

Cheng Lang was also happy to see this, and even a little excited.

Not only can he enjoy the battle, but he can also learn more skills.

But I felt my knuckles were numb from the shock.

Cheng Lang couldn't help but feel worried. Although he wanted to see what the opponent would look like in the end, if he continued in his current state, he might not be able to hold on until the opponent used his full strength.

"Although I don't really want to use the power of the fruit, a pure sword competition requires me to have sufficient strength."

Cheng Lang's arms suddenly swelled, and his strength increased instantly. Originally, Saka had the advantage in strength, but at this moment he was chopped dozens of meters away again.

During this gap, Cheng Lang took out the golden apple and started eating it.

Then he took out a bottle of potion with two levels of strength and one level of vitality.

Get in good shape.

Cheng Lang breathed a sigh of relief.

Feel the power surging from within the body.

This was his first time using a potion, and not to mention the feeling of the sudden surge in strength was truly mesmerizing.

"Coming!"

boom.

Gravel was flying on the ground.

Ding.

When Cheng Lang appeared again, he had already come to Saka's side, and the diamond sword in his hand struck out in the form of a stab.

Although Saka did not see Cheng Lang's attack, the Seven Star Sword blocked Cheng Lang's attack path horizontally.

The strong wind seemed to have just reacted and slowly stirred up the wind and waves.

With Cheng Lang and Saka as the center, the air wave was spreading rapidly.

The weeds on the ground were pressed down.

Zoro, who was fighting Duma, also noticed it. He turned his head and saw this scene, and couldn't help but sigh.

Cheng Lang's talent is better than he imagined.

At the beginning, Cheng Lang was just an ordinary person who couldn't even hold the sword and exert force correctly. Even when he was in Xiluobu Village, his physical strength and reaction were actually very poor. If it weren't for his special fruit ability, he would probably have been seriously injured by the cat claw blade.

But how long has it been?

Not only the reaction speed but also the strength is improved

The most important thing is that he mastered swordsmanship very quickly.

He understood things very quickly and there were many things that he didn't need to be taught a second time.

"This guy is really a monster. If I don't work harder, I will be surpassed." Zoro felt a sense of crisis.

Although Duma was also eroded by the ghost energy, he gradually regained his sanity at this moment, but his body did not stop attacking: "Your companion is in danger."

Zoro blocked Duma's attack with his two swords, but he just replied noncommittally: "That guy didn't use his full strength."

The words Haki and Qi were proposed by Cheng Lang. Now he could feel that Cheng Lang had not used Haki yet. It was a pure battle of strength and skill, and of course, it was partially enhanced by the ability of the fruit.

Duma remained silent. He was eroded by the ghostly energy. At the same time, as the Seven Star Sword was gradually unsealed, the power and senses he gained became more obvious.

However, he was not continuously eroded by the ghost energy, and even the power of the ghost energy was gradually weakening. This was an important reason why he was able to regain his sanity. At the same time, he also felt the feeling coming from the Seven Star Sword.

This feeling made him feel threatened by the existence of Cheng Lang, even... terrified.

But he couldn't explain the origin of this feeling, and even suspected it was an illusion.

That is at this time.

Saka's sword-holding posture changed. The sword in his hand was no longer used as a knife, and the force was no longer direct.

Cheng Lang noticed the change immediately.

The strength that he used to suppress his opponent was instantly reduced a lot.

This is to unload the force and transfer your own power.

Cheng Lang was excited and stared at the other person intently.

Live up.

The figure was like a poisonous snake, and the diamond sword was stuck to the Seven Star Sword.

This time it was his turn to suppress with pure force.

At this moment, Saka was like a master who had been immersed in kendo for many years.

Facing powerful enemies, he was at ease. The Seven Star Sword wavered gently, and sword shadows appeared one after another.

With just a twist of his wrist, the opponent reduced the force by 30%.

But this was not the end. The removed force was not transferred to the empty space. Saka turned around and returned the 30% force plus his full strength to Cheng Lang.

And the target was directly at Cheng Lang's throat.

Speed, skill and strength were fully demonstrated at this moment.

If it were someone else, they might have been beheaded by a single sword strike.

But the person he met was Cheng Lang.

The sharp edge of the Seven Star Sword was pressed against Cheng Lang's neck.

Can't make any progress.

"Is this swordsmanship? It's so elegant and gorgeous."

Cheng Lang didn't care about the Seven Star Sword on his neck at all. His eyes were fanatical. It's not that he didn't react to Saka's action just now, but even if he reacted, he couldn't exert the strength to twist his body or even block it.

Under normal circumstances, he would be able to react and block.

However, the opponent's sword not only borrowed his strength but also used the excess force to move his center of gravity, making it impossible for him to stabilize quickly and then turn around to block.

This is the triple application of skill, strength and speed.

It's called swordsmanship.

Saka's purple eyes also widened quietly. Obviously, he did not cut off Cheng Lang's head with one sword. He was also surprised.

He took a leap and created some distance between them, looking at Cheng Lang with burning eyes.

Cheng Lang was a little surprised. Could it be that the other party had regained his sanity?

Cheng Lang just looked at the other party's sword-holding posture and the gradually rising Seven Star Sword.

What finally appeared before Cheng Lang was the standard starting stance of a Western sword.

The body is slightly tilted.

One hand behind the back, the other hand pointing the sword at the enemy.

Chapter 162: An Ordinary Stab

"A rapier?"

Also known as the noble sword.

The swordsmanship that only nobles can use is also a branch of sword, namely rapier.

This sword technique focuses on lightness and agility, using quick strikes as a means of attack.

This was the first impression in Cheng Lang's mind.

But this kind of swordsmanship...is it something that Shimotsuki Koshiro would teach?

It's even said that the samurai of Wano Country should only have one weapon choice.

That's the knife.

Cheng Lang turned his head to see Zoro, who naturally noticed it at this moment, and his expression was also extremely wonderful.

Obviously this is not the swordsmanship that Saka should master.

Cheng Lang looked at the Seven Star Sword with burning eyes.

At this moment, the Seven Star Sword is still full of ghostly aura.

But compared to the evil feeling before, the feeling coming now is more like... a guardian sword.

This reminded Cheng Lang of some of the descriptions of the Seven Star Sword in the movie.

It seems that the kings of three countries fought over a witch they had protected for generations, and in the end, the sword became a demon sword because of too much blood.

In other words, the Seven Star Sword was once a normal guardian sword.

"It's really amazing."

Cheng Lang seemed to have figured out a lot of key points.

From the initial clash of power to the current master of swordsmanship.

Is this how one improves by being infected by ghost energy and becoming a great swordsman?

Has the world rationalized it into what it is now?

That is at this time.
