Chapter 1: Zoro, Your Named Sword Belongs to Me

"Zoro, you're amazing! You effortlessly defeated the pirate with a bounty of 3 million berries, Giant Axe David!"

"That's right! If it weren't for Zoro, Joseph and I would have been knocked down by David in an instant."

Two young men with swords quickly ran to the side of Zoro, the swordsman known as the Pirate Hunter, filled with excitement.

"Hehe, a pirate with a bounty of 3 million berries is nothing special," Zoro said as he sheathed his three swords and turned to his two friends who had come to him.

"Johnny, Joseph, take David to the Marines to claim the bounty later. Let's have a good drink afterward."

Upon hearing Zoro's words, David and Joseph naturally nodded. Although the two of them were bounty hunters targeting pirates, without Zoro, they could only catch some low-level pirates. Only by acting with Zoro could they earn more berry.

For Zoro, the two of them naturally had a great deal of respect.

However, just as the two of them were about to lift David's body, a strange voice rang in their ears.

"Roronoa Zoro, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Accompanying the voice was a chilling sword intent.

"Who are you?" Zoro raised an eyebrow and looked in the direction of the voice.

Not far away, a man about 1.9 meters tall, strong, handsome, with black hair and black eyes, was strolling over.

Zoro's gaze shifted downward, keenly locking onto the longsword hanging from the man's waist.

The sharp aura of a swordsman made him feel that the longsword on the man's waist was extraordinary.

"I am Rosen, as you can see, a swordsman," Rosen said with a smile, placing his left hand on the handle of the sword at his waist.

"Hey, who are you, daring to challenge our brother Zoro, the famous Pirate Hunter?"

"That's right, if you want trouble, you've picked the wrong person," Johnny and Joseph said, coming over with an air of wanting to drive Rosen away.

They thought Rosen was planning to snatch the bounty from the pirate Zoro had just defeated.

Little did they know that although Rosen was doing the business of a bounty hunter, he had no intention of taking their spoils. His target was Zoro.

Rosen glanced at the two of them and didn't pay much attention.

As a transmigrator who had awakened the "All Crew Members Become Sword Masters System", he had targeted Zoro from the beginning.

More precisely, he targeted the named sword "Wado Ichimonji" wielded by Zoro.

"Lucky enough, after coming to the world of pirates for a month."

"I finally met Zoro in this town in the East Blue."

"Zoro is still with Johnny and Joseph, it seems that it will be some time before he meets Luffy." As Rosen thought, he drew the sword named "Zangetsu" from his waist, which he had just obtained from the system's novice gift package upon arriving in the world of pirates.

Even though the "Zangetsu" in his hand had not yet reached its Shikai state, its quality was already at the level of the Saijo O Wazamono [Supreme Grade Swords] in the world of pirates.

Unlike the "Zangetsu" wielded by Ichigo Kurosaki in the original Bleach, which had not yet reached the Shikai, the "Zangetsu" in Rosen's hand was not huge when it had not yet reached its Shikai state.

It was about the same size as the "Wado Ichimonji" wielded by Zoro.

"You seem free, pirate hunter Zoro."

"How about you bet your sword, one of the 21st Great Grade Swords in your hand, the Wado Ichimonji, and have a duel with me as swordsmen?" Rosen smiled.

Upon hearing this, Zoro immediately frowned.

The "Wado Ichimonji" was the named sword of his close childhood friend. When he heard that Rosen wanted to take away this sword, he immediately grinned. (In a bad way)

But before he could speak, Joseph stepped forward first.

"Since you know Zoro, the pirate hunter, and still dare to challenge him, do you have a death wish?"

"Big brother, just stand aside and watch. I'll teach this guy a lesson." Joseph, displeased, drew the longsword from his waist, intending to give Rosen a lesson.

However, as soon as he approached Rosen, a cold light flashed past him.

Swish!

"Huh?!"

Joseph blinked his eyes, feeling a sense of fear instinctively from the cold light that had just flashed past him.

The next moment, a scene that shocked him occurred.

The longsword in his hand was already only half left.

The other half was flying in the air and eventually fell to the ground.

"What... what's going on!?" Joseph, as the person involved, and Johnny beside him widened their eyes in shock.

"The Swordsman who can Cut Through Iron!"

"You can cut through iron!?" Zoro said in amazement.

"How about it, am I qualified to fight you, swordsman of the Three Sword Style?" Rosen waved the sword in his hand casually, looking at Zoro.

"Interesting, if I can defeat you, maybe I can become a Swordsman who cuts through iron too," Zoro laughed.

He untied the headband from his arm and tied it around his head.

Then he drew three swords and aimed them at Rosen:

"As you wish, let's have a battle between swordsmen."

"But if you want to take away my Wado Ichimonji, it won't be so easy."

"This sword is very important to me!"

With that, Zoro quickly rushed towards Rosen.
