Chapter 100

After saying that, he quickly followed Garp's footsteps, and the three of them left while talking and laughing.

This arrogant attitude made Moria and Jinbei in the room dumbfounded.

Sengoku was so angry that he almost fainted.

"Shithead, you two stop right there!

Boa Hancock, you come back here too!"

The three of them were selectively deaf to Sengoku's rage. They even quickened their pace a bit, and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the three people's backs as they slipped away, Kizaru's heart moved, and he stood up and raised half of his butt to follow suit.

But in an instant, Sengoku turned his head and stared at him with red eyes.

Kizaru's body stiffened, and after maintaining the posture of preparing to leave for more than ten seconds, he sighed helplessly and sat back down.

'I really envy Garp-san, I also want to go home and catch up on my sleep~'

With a sigh in his heart, he opened the comic again and read it with little interest.

Beside him, Kuzan secretly cried out in regret when he saw this, and reluctantly put down the blindfold, put his hands on the back of his head and soon began to snore softly.

Looking at the messy meeting room and his subordinates who were more unreliable than each other.

Sengoku sighed heavily, sat back in his chair with a sense of loss, and even lost interest in continuing the meeting.

'How can we run a good marine with these damn guys!

Retire! I must retire!!!'

Luffy didn't care about how Sengoku was troubled and distressed.

He followed Garp and quickly left the headquarters building.

But as soon as he came out, he paused, looked at the three people who seemed to have been waiting here with surprise, and asked in confusion:

"Why are you three here? Are you here to see me?"

In front of him, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp stood at attention and greeted them immediately after seeing them.

"Vice Admiral Garp, Captain Luffy, Lady Hancock"*3Looking at the three young and energetic young men, Garp waved his hand in a friendly manner and also greeted them.

Hancock nodded slightly because they were Luffy's subordinates, barely returning the greeting.

Luffy rubbed his chin, looking at the three people, or rather Zoro who was eager among the three, seemed to understand something, and asked with a smile:

"Are you here to challenge Mihawk? Do you want to see the strength of the world's greatest swordsman?"

Zoro nodded heavily in acknowledgement.

"Yes, I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

"Then you better think about it, this is not the opponent you can face now."

After being taught by Luffy and others, Zoro already understood the level of his own strength.

But even so, he still did not back down, nodded with a firm look, and said seriously while pressing the Wado Ichimonji on his waist:

"Captain, I finally have a chance, I just want to see how big the gap is between him and me."

After he finished speaking, Luffy pondered for a moment, pretending to be entangled, and said with a hint of testing:

"I'm not trying to discourage you. You haven't even mastered Haki yet, so you can't be that man's opponent.

You can wait two more years until you are stronger before coming to him."

But his deliberate belittling did not discourage Zoro's determination. He nodded stubbornly and said seriously:

"I know, but I must try."

Seeing that Zoro was determined, Luffy nodded secretly in his heart and stopped persuading him.

This is the Zoro he knows.

If he loses the courage to challenge because he knows that the opponent is stronger than himself, then he will not be the Zoro he know.

"Hahaha, you are such a courageous young man. Come on, I have faith in you."

Garp laughed happily and patted Zoro's shoulder.

Luffy found it funny, and stepped forward to pat Zoro on the other shoulder, encouraging him, and then said:

"Okay, then you guys wait here.

But you'd better go find a doctor now and be on standby.

In case of any accidents, you can get immediate treatment."

The three nodded and saluted respectfully.

Luffy and Garp said nothing more, nodded and said goodbye to them.

After watching the three people leave, Usopp said something to the two and ran to the hospital alone to ask for a doctor.

Zoro and Sanji didn't know when the meeting would end, so they simply sat cross-legged on the side of the road, quietly waiting for Mihawk to show up.

After waiting for a long time, looking at Zoro who took out the Wado Ichimonji and carefully maintained it with a cotton swab.

Sanji supported his chin with his hand and asked boredly:

"Hey, Green moss Head, I see that among your three swords, you value this one the most. Is there any story behind it?"

Zoro carefully applied sword oil to the sword body and did not answer.

Seeing this, Sanji pouted unhappily and turned his head away to ignore him.

The atmosphere fell into silence. Sanji thought that this guy would ignore him, but after a few minutes, he suddenly said:

"This sword carries the dream of my best friend and my promise to her.

One day, I will take this sword with me and ascend to the throne of the world's greatest swordsman.

I will spread my name and the name of Wado Ichimonji to heaven and show my best friend."

"Heaven? Your friend?!....Sorry, I spoke too much."

Sanji was surprised at first, but then he quickly realized what was happening and apologized.

Zoro was wiping the sword vigorously with cotton cloth. After hearing Sanji's apology, the corners of his mouth slightly raised and he teased:

"Can Kappa apologize? I thought your brain was underdeveloped and you didn't have these words in your head."

!!!

"What did you say! You bastard green moss head, I just feel sorry for you!

If you are defeated later, don't cry and ask me for comfort, I have no interest in taking care of a swordsman with poor sense of direction!"

Sanji pointed at Zoro and cursed angrily, but Zoro was unmoved. It was rare that he didn't get angry and cursed at him.

Because he suddenly felt that a sharp and unstoppable breath was approaching.

This compelling momentum made Wado on his waist tremble slightly, as if he couldn't wait for the upcoming battle.
