Chapter 245 Untitled
"Huh? How is that possible?!"
The rest of the people also cast incredulous looks.
Especially Irene and other swordsmen, their eyes were full of "don't believe it" and "don't try to fool me".
Kuina shook her head and said: "It's not like you don't know what kind of person Hawkeye Mihawk is. He is so arrogant that it is impossible for him to join the King's Shichibukai and become a lackey of the World Government."
Liya shook the newspaper in her hand and said helplessly: "I know you can't believe it, but it is the fact. It has been published in the newspaper. The World Government will not lie about this and damage its own face."
However, after being in disbelief at the beginning, everyone soon came to their senses again, and they all remembered the character of Hawkeye Mihawk.
Although Liya and others have not been in contact with him for a long time, judging from his battle with Master Noah, he is undoubtedly a sword fanatic.
He is a very simple man, so simple that he has nothing but his sword, and his arrogance comes from his sincerity towards the sword.
He loses interest in anything that has nothing to do with swords, which is why he seems so arrogant to outsiders.
In the original work, if Luffy hadn't made Shanks risk an arm, causing his only close friend and rival to lose the possibility of competing with him in kendo, Mihawk probably wouldn't have treated Luffy, a fledgling boy, What's the concern?
Facts have proved that this is also the case. Later, the most important reason why Mihawk paid attention to the Straw Hat Boys was that his apprentice and future opponent Roronoa Zoro was among them.
Therefore, Mihawk may not have much resistance to becoming a Shichibukai. As long as it can serve his swordsmanship, becoming a Shichibukai is okay.
Of course, if you want Mihawk to fight for the World Government like Bartholomew Bear in the future, then you are overthinking.
"But what can the World Government do that deserves Mihawk's attention?"
Joanna asked confused.
"Information about a strong swordsman!"
"The kendo handbook of a strong kendo master!"
Loren and Elena each revealed Mihawk's desires.
Yes, for a lone ranger like Hawkeye Mihawk, isn't the worst thing about intelligence?
Even though the generals are emperor, the source of intelligence is still relying on newspapers. Isn’t it a shame?
What? You said Lord Noah doesn’t have his own source of intelligence?
Are you kidding me, is Lord Noah a man who needs information?
Irene, Guina and Sibel all looked surprised after hearing this, and then they breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, they still admire Mihawk and don't hope that one day he will degenerate into a dog of the World Government.
"However, you may be enemies next time we meet, little sisters!"
Xia Qi did not refute the girls' guess, but said with a smile.
Everyone nodded solemnly, but so what?
Anyone who dares to offend Lord Noah is an enemy, and they will not hold back.
"But you always bring me surprises every time you come..."
Xia Qi looked at the skeleton Brooke who was wearing a shabby suit behind the girls, "I was shocked at first by this skeleton guy!"
"Hey, I'm so happy to meet you, this beautiful lady! My name is Brooke, and I'm a member of the Lumba Pirates."
Brooke stepped forward and bowed in a gentlemanly manner, and then asked curiously: "I wonder if I can know the color of the lady's underwear?"
"Oh, I remember I was wearing purple lace today. It felt quite comfortable."
Under the dumb eyes of everyone, Xia Qi openly told the color of her underwear without blushing at all, and even mentioned the style by the way.
It took a while for the girls to wake up from a dream, and they all stepped forward to catch Brooke and give him a good beating.
"Don't keep asking such rude questions!"
"This is simply perverted, sexual harassment in broad daylight!"
"You've got a handful of bones and you're still so horny!"
……
Noah smiled and enjoyed the scene in front of him, feeling relieved and quite interesting.
After a while, Brooke was beaten all over his head, but he didn't know if the blood spurting out of his nose was from the beating, because he was unaware of the injuries on his body at the moment, and instead murmured: "It's so... so bold. Beautiful young lady, yo ho ho..."
"But the Lumba Pirates? I feel like I've heard of them somewhere?"
As an intelligence agent, Xia Qi had to store a large amount of information in her brain every day, which also developed her ability to remember things. After a while, she suddenly said:
"I seem to have heard my Lao Lei mention it before. It should be about his partner. You can ask about it later."
Xia Qi smiled, flicked the ash from her cigarette, looked at Noah and said, "You should be looking for Lao Lei for coating. He should be back soon."
"Well, after counting the time, he should have almost lost all the money in his hand."
Xia Qi knew very well how many steel pennies were in Lei Li's trouser pocket, so she could roughly deduce how long it would take for Lei Li to come back.
"But it won't necessarily be the case if he sells himself out again."
The girls were speechless after hearing this and narrowed their eyes.
At first, they looked at Rayleigh through the lens of One Piece's deputy, "Pluto" Rayleigh, but after getting in touch with him for a while, they realized that Rayleigh now is just a bad old man.
Well, he is also very shameless. He likes to bully those unarmed and black-hearted nobles, saying that he is retiring, but his bad habits as a pirate have not changed.
Fortunately, Rayleigh came back near the afternoon.
As soon as Rayleigh opened the door of the tavern, he shouted in distress: "Hey! I lost again, and Xia Qi gave me a bottle of wine."
"Huh? Brother Noah, here you come again so soon."
Reilly looked at Noah and others in the tavern with slight surprise, but not surprise. He just stayed on Brooke for a long time, his eyes full of curiosity.
However, the well-informed Rayleigh was not too surprised by Brooke.
"It seems that Brother Noah is in a hurry to go to Totland to find Big Mom. He's here to see me, an old man, for coating."
Apart from coating, Rayleigh couldn't think of any other reason for Noah to come to him, a retired old man.
Noah nodded and said with a smile: "There is no way, among the people I know, you have the best coating, and you are also the fastest."
This is a lie!
It’s just that the people Noah knew who were better and faster than Rayleigh in coating were all dead, and probably not even their ashes were left.
"Hahaha, it goes without saying that this is a craft that I learned so hard back then that I plan to use it to make a living after I retire."
The old boy Lei Li didn't blush at all, he accepted Noah's compliments generously, and even shamelessly said that he learned his skills secretly.
This made everyone's faces fall instantly.
Riley, where's your face?
You are the right hand of the Pirate King!
And he’s also the brains behind the Pirate King!
Reilly seemed unaware of this. Instead, he looked at Brooke and said with a smile: "This little skeleton guy surprised me. I have followed Roger and his friends all over the world for so many years. I dare say that I have seen a lot, but... I’ve never seen such a uh... novel creature like little brother.”
Reilly couldn't describe Brooke's weirdness. As he stood there, Reilly could clearly feel the voice that belonged to him, but there was nothing in his bones. That meant that Reilly was not a scientist, otherwise his skull would be scratched.
"Brother must be a devil fruit user."
