Dark King... Rayleigh!
Seeing the sudden appearance of the old man, with Kizaru standing behind him, his expression couldn't help but change.
However, due to Rayleigh's appearance, Kuma had managed to use his ability on Usopp, and quickly ran towards the Straw Hat boy who was severely injured and dying.
*POP*
The entire crew of the Straw Hat, under Rayleigh's interference, Kuma using his skill, and Kizaru's completely selfless manner, the Mugiwara crew were rescued.
Seeing this scene, Karl just raised his eyebrows, undisturbed.
Because from the beginning he had a playful attitude towards the Straw Hat crew.
Such a weak "opponent" doesn't deserve to be taken seriously. Does it matter to him whether he is alive or dead?
And it's not that I haven't let them go before, what if I let them go again this time?
Moreover, this group of people was affected by Kuma, and they don't even know that they have flown hundreds or thousands of kilometers.
If they really want to chase them, it would be nothing but a waste of time and effort!
(T/N: I always think that as long as there's a sniper with Advanced Haki to predict the future he could destroy the bubble that Kuma makes with his fruit)
In contrast, Rayleigh's appearance caught Karl's full attention...
Recognizing the identity of this highly skilled "senpai" in the pirate world, the pirates watching the battle are all terrified!
This is the right hand of the Pirate King, the first legendary officer, who climbed to the top of the sea and appeared in front of them like this!
However, Karl's reaction was diametrically opposed to everyone's.
"Enemy?"
"Rayleigh, you think too highly of them, do you think they deserve to be my enemies?"
"Perhaps, young man, your strength is really very strong."
"But in the future, who can say? Those little guys haven't fully grown up yet and haven't exploited their full potential..."
Rayleigh didn't mind Karl's somewhat flamboyant attitude and said with a smile after taking a sip of vintage wine.
"Age is no reason, just like now, I'm very interested in you, who are called the Dark King."
"If it were you, perhaps you would be qualified to be my current opponent!"
That's right, Karl is more interested in Rayleigh than the Straw Hat gang that was massacred by them.
It is said that they use him as an opponent, but it is better to say that Karl wants to practice with this old man.
Ever since he won the Eight Inner Gates, Karl's heart has been filled with excitement to try his new skill.
The opponent is very weak, how can he use the Eight Inner Gates?
And the current Rayleigh, although the strength is not as good as in its prime, should be barely 'enough'.
It's definitely the most suitable workout partner right now, take it out!
Eight Inner Doors is worth a try!
"Oh yes? Do you want to have a hand with this old retiree?"
Hearing Karl's words, an intense light flashed in Rayleigh's old-fashioned eyes.
Hearing this, Karl didn't speak, he just stood there, with a pair of eyes, the fighting spirit had started to spread...
"Do you want to attack the Dark King?"
"What's the origin of that person?!"
"It's really arrogant."
"This boy is almost my same age as me and I don't see the New World entering. Will he go and swing a sword against a legend?"
"Hey, what an exciting day, I didn't expect to see such a wonderful scene before the public execution."
"I don't know if this ignorant boy is strong, but it would be a shame if a boy with such courage dies before entering the New World!"
Hearing the conversation between the two, the pirates who were around and watching the drama started a heated argument.
As for Karl's audacity to take the initiative to wield a sword against a living legend, there are those who admire him, those who despise him, those who laugh at him and those who have no major reaction.
Most were surprised by what happened in front of them, but among them there were also people with other ideas.
The supernovae of the worst generation had expressions of jubilation!
As a young supernova of this generation that is about to enter the New World, who doesn't intend to take down the Four Emperors and replace them?
The battle that is about to take place in front of them is of great importance to them, and can be considered as a preview of the prelude!
*TANG*
Suddenly a huge metallic vibrato was heard from the battlefield!
The battle started so suddenly, without much words, after Rayleigh and Karl looked at each other for a while, the two of them attacked at the same time!
The Haki Armament, already wrapped around Karl's right fist, collided with Rayleigh's sword, which was also wrapped in Haki!
After a small test, there was no bright spot. After unleashing the first attack, the two quickly began a fast-paced, high-strength battle...
The collision of the fist and the sword intertwined at an extremely fast speed.
In the eyes of the people around, they were ghostly, dazzling shadows, and they couldn't even grasp the actual bodies of both combatants.
The only thing that can prove that the two of them are fighting at high intensity is the sound of the clash coming from there!
In these few seconds, they have already collided hundreds and are getting closer to the point of releasing their true strength.
"Young man, I have to admit that you really are too powerful."
"This kind of strength shouldn't belong to your age, it seems that I'm just an old bone before the new generation, I'll give it my all."
"Now I have to be serious, be careful!"
Rayleigh's voice still sounded calm.
However, after uttering this sentence, his speed became even faster, so fast that even the shadows became barely noticeable and visible.
"Flash!"
An old shout could be heard, and in the square, along with a dazzling flash of white sword light, Rayleigh swung the sword in his hand tightly, and a thick and long sword energy split everything in his path!
The next moment, I saw that huge sword energy that carried a terrifying glow, swiftly stabbing in the direction of Karl!
"Yes?"
"Since that's the case, it seems like I should also act more seriously."
"Eight interior doors... the first door, open!"
