Ch-18 We are not enemies, We can have friendly discussion.

Zoro had thought that Li Fan's most potent swordsmanship technique was the [Swallow Reversal] move. But now, he realized that Li Fan could not only utilize unique skills that transcended space and time but also create a world of infinite swords through his own power.

Zoro could hardly comprehend the earlier [Swallow Reversal], but the [Unltimate Blade Works] had pushed the limits of his imagination.

Tashigi, also a swordsman, was equally astonished.

'Li Fan, if it's true that Shirou Emiya and Archer in the script had such a world of swords hidden in their hearts, enabling them to manifest this world with their own power...'

'Then, do you, who can do something like this, also possess a world of swords within your heart?'

At this moment, Tashigi was filled with admiration for Li Fan's swordsmanship and grew even more curious about him.

"Garp, you must be quite skilled in using Busoshoku Haki."

"Next, you're really facing an infinite number of swords. Don't let them overwhelm you and make me the guy who took down a naval hero."

"I don't want to worry about being pursued by your navy when I make movies in the future."

Li Fan spoke to Garp with a smile on his face.

"Tsk, kid, you're impressed just because you have more swords?"

"If you think of this as a hail of bullets, I've seen much larger scenes."

"Don't underestimate me!"

Garp stomped on the ground and rapidly closed the distance between him and Li Fan.

"Haha, you're underestimating me when you compare my weapons to regular bullets," Li Fan chuckled. "They are all precious Noble Phantasm!"

As Li Fan waved his hand downward, thousands of swords surged toward Garp.

In the distance, people watched as Garp appeared to be a lone figure confronting an endless sea.

Soon, Garp's form was engulfed by the multitude of flying swords.

"Rumble—"

Thunderous roars echoed within the boundaries of the [Unlimited Blade Works].

Garp's fists became like rapid-fire machine guns, continuously pounding the swords flying toward him. Despite his efforts, the swords pierced through the barrier formed by Garp's fists and reached his body.

However, due to Garp's formidable Busoshoku Haki, the longswords caused no harm to him.

A few minutes later, Li Fan stopped the attack, and Garp emerged from the storm of swords.

Garp's clothes were a bit tattered, but he was unharmed, and he hadn't even broken a sweat.

"Amazing, Vice Admiral Garp is perfectly fine!"

"Garp truly lives up to his reputation, withstanding such an attack!"

The Navy crew celebrated, proud to have someone as strong as Garp in their ranks.

Clap, clap, clap—

Li Fan applauded and walked over to Garp.

"Indeed, Garp, the naval hero. Most people would've been in serious trouble facing that onslaught."

"Tsk, you, kid!" Garp looked at Li Fan with a hint of annoyance, "You clearly held back. Those swords were numerous, but not very lethal."

"You never intended to fight me seriously!"

"We're not enemies, and we agreed to a friendly competition, right?" Li Fan responded with a smile, "Defeating me at this level should suffice."

"You're right, young man," Garp chuckled. "You're a good one. As for your idea of inviting pirates for a movie, let that Sengoku guy handle it."

"Anyway, my mission of inviting you is has been completed."

Li Fan couldn't help but feel a bit sympathetic for the Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

With an old friend like Garp, being a Fleet Admiral Sengoku's life must have been tough.

Li Fan snapped his fingers, and the [Unlimited Blade Works] slowly faded away, returning everyone to Loguetown.

"Garp, you better remember your promise. When I invite you to act in a movie, you can't back out."

"Huh? Did I agree to that?" Garp picked his nose and said with a mischievous grin on his face.

At the same time, he threw the boogers in Li Fan's direction.

Li Fan's eyes widened, he quickly dodged Garp's boogers, and then gave him a swift kick in the face.

Sending him flying.

"You're too old for this nonsense. You should practice some self-discipline."

"Maybe I shouldn't have invited you to act in the first place!" Li Fan yelled at Garp, frustrated.
