After a brief conversation, Darren took a few steps back to give enough space to the two people in the first duel. He withdrew his gaze from the fiery figure and glanced at the cigar in his hand. The cigars were very ordinary, and they didn't even have a trademark. They looked like inferior goods produced on tobacco plantations. It had been a long time since he had smoked such a low-quality cigar.
Logically speaking, Huo Shaoshan, as the admiral who holds the command of the South Navy, could live a superior life casually even if his means of making money were not as good as his own. But he doesn't seem to be. Although the military boots were polished, the wrinkles on them showed that they had been worn for a long time. The military uniform was clean, but it had obviously been washed and turned white.
Thinking back to the rumors I heard before... In the four sea areas of east, south, west, and north, the Navy Headquarters has a total of four admirals to command the military power in the sea areas and maintain public security and peace. The Beihai under his jurisdiction is the most chaotic. Although Donghai is the weakest, Donghai Admiral Doberman was eliminated by Kuzan in the first round, his strength is undoubtedly at the upper level in this training camp. The West Sea is the richest, and the West Sea Admiral Onigumo scares pirates with his cold and tough attitude. As for Nanhai Admiral Huo Shaoshan, he is famous for being powerful and gentle. He loved his subordinates and would even distribute his military pay to subordinates who were injured or killed in battle. He was a role model in the eyes of many young sailors.
A... really good marine? Darren suddenly smiled, put the cigar in his mouth, lit it, and took a deep drag. The low-quality tobacco burns into thick smoke, which is extremely pungent and irritates the throat. Like a warm and mellow spirit. He narrowed his eyes with a contented expression.
…
The first game, Kake vs. Stoloberg! Zephyr said loudly. At this time, he also lit a cigar for himself, and he was obviously in a good mood. Stoloberg stood out from the crowd with an indifferent expression, staring at Kake's figure expressionlessly, holding the two swords at his waist with his left and right hands at the same time, and drew the swords out of their sheaths. He turned out to be a rare two-sword swordsman! I saw that he was holding a sword in his right hand and a sword in his left hand, assuming an attacking posture, and a faint cold breath spread out.
Kake, it seems you are out of luck this time. There was arrogance in his tone. Come on, let me see what you learned in Beihai. As soon as these words came out, everyone present suddenly reacted and turned their attention to Kake. In the first round of the showdown, Kake received a bye. In other words, none of them present had seen Kake's moves and had no way of knowing the latter's combat power. However, Gion, who went to Hokkai to take up a post with Kake, showed his strength far beyond the past, which made everyone curious about Kake. But when everyone's eyes fell on Kake, the corners of his mouth twitched, and several black lines floated on his forehead.
There's really nothing we can do... I saw Kake taking out a brown hat from nowhere. The brim of the hat was pushed down, and the shadow covered most of his face. He put his hands in his pockets and assumed a bleak posture, his cloak fluttering in the strong wind carrying the yellow sand. Kake sighed softly, his voice pretending to be low and authentic: I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in exchange was alienation and disdain. Now it seems that I can only show you the true strength of my genius — boom!!
Kake shuddered suddenly, jumped up from the spot, and dropped his hat to the ground. The bullet created a crater at his feet. Hurry up and play, don't waste my time. Zephyr said angrily, the barrel of the pistol in his hand smoking. Hi, hi, hi, Teacher Zephyr. Kake smiled submissively and jogged onto the field. Everyone:... Kuzan's eyes twitched. Gion turned away and covered his forehead with his hands. Darren sighed and rubbed his temples.
The two faced each other from afar. Kake took a deep breath, lowered his knees, and kept looking at Stoloberg in front of him. A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Stoloberg is a colonel at the Navy Headquarters, a rank earned through actual combat prowess. He was born in the Grand Line, and unlike himself who grew up in Marinevando, he had rich combat experience. Although his strength seems to have improved a lot during this period, without actual combat comparison, Kake really can't estimate his own level.
Facing an opponent like Stoloberg, Kake didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, he got a bye in the first round, so he was able to make it into the top eight, which was not a shame.
I hope Darren's bastard's special training will be useful...
Kake muttered in his heart as Stoloberg in front of him had already launched an attack!
There was a muffled bang, and the figure of Stoloberg, holding two swords in his hands, flew out like a gust of wind.
When the distance between the two sides was less than 5 meters, his figure jumped up high, crossed his swords, and slashed down towards Kake from top to bottom with an unstoppable attitude!
At this moment, the world in front of him slowed down.
Kake was visibly startled.
So slow...
Captured by his sight, the trajectory of Stoloberg's two swords... was extremely clear!
What is the reason!?
Was it Stoloberg who became weak!?
No!
You have become stronger!!
Kake reacted belatedly.
As if instinctively, he took a half step back, turning his figure to one side.
Keng!
--Laugh!!
The two sharp knives that missed struck the ground, cutting a ten-meter-long incision into the ground and sending up billows of dust.
Stoloberg was visibly stunned for a second, his pupils constricted.
Escaped!?
"So relaxing!!"
I completely saw through the traces of the slash!
So strong!!
The marines watching the battle all around exclaimed.
Zephyr's eyes also lit up.
How can this be...
Stoloberg gritted his teeth, twisted his right foot forward, and pounced again.
The overly long swords waved countless sharp phantoms in his hands, cutting slender sword marks on the ground and completely covering Kake's figure.
Then an incredible scene happened——
Kake was seen retreating, dodging the oncoming slashes crookedly. His steps were stumbling as if he would be struck at any time, but each sword missed his body by a narrow margin.
Everyone was even more shocked to find that as time went by, Kake's evasive movements became more and more skillful and light. In the end, he even made various faces from time to time, baring his teeth and wanting to be beaten to the extreme.
Hahahaha! Did you see it? This is the true strength of my genius, Kake!!
Kake laughed proudly, made a sliding shovel, and leaned back to avoid Stoloberg's horizontal sword swing.
Too slow!
So relaxing!
I can see it clearly!!
Compared to Darren's perverted ferocity,
This guy's attack... is almost like a child fighting!!
Noticing the shock and astonishment in everyone's eyes, Kake felt extremely happy, and the villain in his heart laughed wildly with his hands on his hips.
At this moment, he suddenly discovered the torture he had received in Beihai, the pain of being pressed to the ground and rubbed to death...
It's so worth it!!
Come on, come on, come and kill me.
Kake bared his teeth and smiled, raising the corners of his mouth with his hands and making a grimace.
Faced with such ridicule, Stoloberg, even though his face was paralyzed, couldn't help but burst into anger, his eyes red.
The two swords were crossed in front of his chest, Stoloberg roared, and his figure exploded out like a cannonball.
But his attack was still in vain.
Kake easily avoided his slashing attack.
The moment the two passed each other, Kake suddenly stretched out his right foot.
Boom!
Stoloberg, who tripped and lost his balance, fell forward and flew out, looking disgraced.
Hahahaha!! Remember, the person who beats you is a genius!
Kake put his hands on his hips and burst into laughter. Then he raised his head and scanned the crowd with an expression of invincible loneliness:
You all need to be more ambitious, strive to make me shine, and work hard to become stronger to please me... okay?
Everyone: ...
By the way, can we challenge him directly? I don't know why, but I want to beat him up, Doberman said coldly.
Me too, Onigumo pressed the handle of his saber.
Take me with you, Dalmatian's eyes trembled and his fists clenched.
I'll come too, Mo Sanbia gritted his teeth.
...Others nodded in deep understanding.
This group of competitors suddenly became enemies with the same target.
Zephyr twitched the corners of his mouth and announced the result directly:
Winner, Kake!
Only then did Kake walk down with great satisfaction, walking as if he didn't recognize his relatives, his nostrils pointing to the sky, not looking at the road at all.
Then,
He accidentally stepped into a pit.
Boom!
He fell and ended up chewing the mud.
Two wooden clogs flew out, and his hairy legs dangled in the air.
Everyone was stunned.
An expression appeared on their faces at the same time:
