I Don’t Want to Be a General, I Choose Buddhism

As soon as Mihawk's words came out, even the "Red-Haired Pirates" couldn't help but look sideways.

With Mihawk's character, once he is a swordsman who challenges the throne of "the world's greatest swordsman", he will definitely face it without reservation!

Not to mention Ying, even if it was "red-haired" Shanks, Mihawk would not be able to keep his hands in the duel.

After all, with Mihawk's pride, keeping his hand in the duel of "the world's largest swordsman" is not only an insult to the challenger, but also an insult to himself and the name of "the world's largest swordsman". No. insult.

At that time, it will definitely be a battle of life and death...

It's just that Yingying is Luffy's partner, right? Have you made such preparations just after entering the waters of the "New World"?

And Luffy, what happened?

Why does he know that I am on this island? And the "road sign history text" is still in hand...

"Redhead" Shanks frowned, but he hesitated for a while.

For the "red-haired" Shanks, he did not hesitate to give an arm and tried his best to stabilize the situation in the sea for more than ten years. What he was waiting for was Luffy's growth!

Although the "red-haired" Shanks still thinks that Luffy has only been out to sea for a few months, even if he eats that fruit, he shouldn't be able to reach that height so quickly, but...

There is no doubt that this is also a good opportunity. Now that Luffy has really reached that height, the opportunity that the captain was looking forward to has really appeared.

Just when the always decisive and domineering "red-haired" Shanks had a rare look of hesitation on his face, Ben Beckman, who was beside him, saw something and asked.

"Mihawk, where did you get the news?"

"About half a month ago, guys from the Revolutionary Army found the news I told you." Mihawk replied.

Immediately, Ben Beckman's eyes widened involuntarily, and he said in shock. "We were just stationed here half a month ago, and we are ready to observe the situation at any time so that we can interfere..."

"Redhead" Shanks frowned and said. "That is to say, are all the actions we consider secretive under the surveillance of the revolutionary army?"

"Could it be... It's really the Revolutionary Army who is controlling all of this behind the scenes?" Ben Beckman's thought resurfaced in his mind.

"It doesn't have to be..."

"Redhead" Shanks pondered for a while, and said speculatively.

"Don't forget that Luffy's father is that dangerous guy in Dorag. He knows the relationship between me and Luffy, so it's not surprising that he has been spying on us..."

After a pause, "red-haired" Shanks said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"However, it seems that our plan to intercept the 'Whitebeard Pirates' will be cancelled. Since Luffy is coming to challenge, how can we avoid it?"

"Tsk, whatever you want, just don't disturb me next time."

Mihawk said indifferently, then sat cross-legged in a corner and closed his eyes, obviously preparing for the upcoming duel, clearing his mind of extra distractions.

……

And almost a day later, the ship's bow was in the shape of a sheep's head, and the Merry, with the straw hat pirate flag flying, slowly approached this deserted island.

On the deck, the expressions of everyone in the Straw Hat group were solemn, as if they were all ready for battle.

Luffy turned his head and glanced at his partner, then pressed his straw hat, and said in a rare deep voice. "Guys, let's go."

Immediately, Luffy took the lead and jumped down towards the coast, and walked towards the central area of ​​this deserted island with his companions.

Soon, a group of pirates who seemed to be having a banquet appeared in front of the Straw Hats. The first one that caught Luffy's eyes was the "red-haired" Shanks who was drinking without any image, and the rest They are also famous officials of the "Red-Haired Pirates" known as the "Iron Wall" and Mihawk, the "Hawkeye" who is sitting beside him with sharp eyes.

"Yo, Luffy, long time no see!!"

"Redhead" Shanks held up the wine bowl and greeted Luffy.

Hearing this, Luffy couldn't help showing a bright and pure smile on his face as he said. "Hee hee hee, we finally meet, Shanks!"

And "red-haired" Shanks looked at Luffy's unusually familiar smile, and vaguely seemed to see a familiar shadow emerging from behind Luffy.

"Yeah, we finally meet again."

"Red-haired" Shanks said in a low voice, then led the cadres to the Straw Hats with two wine bowls in one hand, and glanced at the partners behind Luffy, especially on Sora and Ying. Stopped for a while.

Immediately, "Red Hair" Shanks handed one of the bowls of wine to Luffy and said with a smile. "Luffy, are you going to follow the promise and become a great pirate to return the straw hat?"

"Ah~"

Luffy answered while taking the wine bowl, then took the straw hat on top of his head in his hand and stared deeply and said.

"Although I don't think I'm a great pirate, but Shanks... I need the 'road sign history text' in your hands."

"Hahaha, is the 'road sign history text'? That is the necessary step to reach the 'final island' Ralph Drew and become the 'One Piece'."

Red-haired Shanks said with a big laugh. "Luffy, can't wait to become One Piece?"

Luffy shook his head and said. "What I'm looking forward to is the adventure in the voyage, just for the sake of my buddies, I have to pick up the pace."

"Redhead" Shanks' expression condensed slightly, then smiled again and said.

"Luffy, you should know the rules between pirates, right? Even you, I can't directly hand over the 'road sign history text' in my hand, you can only get it by defeating me, and you have probably already done it. Are you ready?"

Luffy put the straw hat on a blue stone next to him, and said seriously. "Of course, I won't lose!"

Immediately, Shanks the "redhead" swung the wine bowl towards Luffy, and the two drank it all in one go...

"boom!"

The next moment, "Red Hair" Shanks and Luffy jumped into the air in unison, and the fists that collided released a wave of air, and then the two fought while moving the battlefield to the high mountain to the north.

At this moment, Mihawk closed his eyes and slowly opened his eyes, his incomparably sharp eyes locked in Ying's direction, and asked coldly.

"Ying, are you ready to challenge the throne of the 'world's greatest swordsman'?"

"certainly……"

Ying, who appeared more and more, walked in front of Mihawk with "Famous Sword: Sakura Ten" in hand.
