Hawkeye gently let go of his hand, and Black Blade fell to the ground with a crisp clang sound.
At this time, there were dense scars all over his body, like a bloody man.
Hawkeye didn't care at all about the injuries on his body.
At this moment, he had strong doubts about himself.
He couldn't figure out how to practice.
Only then can we reach this level of "god" in Jinbe.
Hawkeye looked at Carlos with complex eyes and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Why? Why don't you kill me?"
Carlos put away his hidden thunder and spoke calmly.
"For now, the Seven Warlords of the Sea remain Marine's allies."
"As the world's greatest swordsman, you are still valuable and can still provide us with considerable combat power, that's all.
In the past, I didn't think much of it.
But now, the title of the world's greatest swordsman sounds so harsh.
Hawkeye suddenly felt that his face was burning with "-zero". He couldn't help but lower his head slightly and laugh at himself:
"Compared to you, I am just a beginner who has just learned how to use a sword."
After being silent for a while, he suddenly raised his head.
"I will resign as Shichibukai to join Marine and learn swordsmanship from you."
Looking at the other party's expectant eyes, Carlos was slightly stunned and couldn't help but frown.
"I have a lot of things to do right now, and I don't have the time or the heart to teach you."
How to teach?
He also successfully understood in the illusion with the help of the system.
Sword Intent can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.
Carlos didn't feel arrogant about defeating Hawkeye.
On the contrary, he knew very well that
Understanding the meaning of the sword does not mean that swordsmanship has reached its end.
Looking at countless planes and billions of worlds, sword skills of this level are just the starting point.
Shichibukai is originally a pirate, so if he joins Marine, other people will inevitably have other ideas.
The world government will not allow this to happen.
Unexpectedly, Hawkeye seemed to have made up his mind and his attitude was extremely firm.
Before this duel, he thought he had reached the peak.
Unexpectedly, there is a bright road ahead!
After finally seeing hope, he naturally refused to give up easily.
Even if you don't do anything, just standing next to Carlos can give you many new insights.
Carlos was about to say no.
The dark thunder in his hand was trembling slightly, and there was a faint feeling of desire!
Looking at Black Blade on the ground in front of him, his heart suddenly moved.
"Could it be that you guys want to..."
As if aware of Carlos's inner thoughts, the dark thunder shook even more violently.
"That's fine." Carlos nodded slightly and looked at Hawkeye. "I want your sword as a trophy."
"What? This!"
Hawkeye frowned and subconsciously wanted to refuse.
For a swordsman, the importance of weapons is self-evident.
Besides, this sword has been with him for many years,
They experienced countless battles together, grew up together, and finally reached the top of the world.
In the past, he would rather die in battle than hand over Black Blade.
But Carlos showed him a broader future.
There was a struggle in his heart.
Hawkeye looked at Black Blade on the ground in front of him, then at Carlos, and suddenly showed a self-deprecating smile.
If the other party hadn't let him live, he wouldn't have been able to stand here and talk to the other party.
Being able to leave a life behind and continue to explore the road to the future is fortunate enough.
What else is there to be dissatisfied with?
In just a short moment, Hawkeye figured everything out.
He took a few steps forward, bent down, picked up Black Blade, and handed it over with both hands.
"Since you are defeated, this is the spoil you deserve.
The next moment, his expression became extremely serious.
"Carlos, compared to you, maybe I am not worth mentioning at all.
"However, one day in the future, I will challenge you again and take back what belongs to me.
"If you are afraid, kill me now."
The scene that happened in Marineford was also transmitted to the holy land of Mariejois by the image bug.
The Five Elders were sitting precariously, staring at Nan Mian on the big screen.
Even from beyond the screen, one can feel the domineering power of this blow.
Even First Generation Kitetsu, who was holding the sword, seemed to notice something and trembled slightly.
He took off his round-rimmed glasses and rubbed his eyebrows vigorously.
"Defeated Hawkeye with just one blow?"
"It seems that we have all underestimated this guy..."
There is no doubt about Hawkeye's strength.
Sword-wielding Five Elders have to admit.
Even he is not sure of victory.
If he had been young, he might have been able to outsmart him and compete with his opponent for the title of the world's greatest swordsman.
Previously, the duel between Hawkeye and Shanks was still vivid in my mind.
He had expected the battle to be fierce and even prepared for Marineford to sink.
Unexpectedly, this highly anticipated battle would end like this?
Speaking of which, this was the first time they saw Carlos take action...
Although I had thought that this guy was very powerful, I didn't expect him to be this strong!
Thinking of this, the sword-wielding Five Elders couldn't help but have mixed feelings and didn't know what to say.
Whitebeard Five Elders suddenly said:
"No, it's not so much that Carlos defeated Hawkeye, but that this guy gave up his resistance."
The sword-holding Five Elders were slightly startled and nodded slowly.
"Yes, it is true."
"If the two sides fight to the end, with the strength of Hawkeye, they shouldn't be defeated so quickly."
"Maybe the moment Carlos took action, he realized the gap in swordsmanship and gave up resistance."
The old man holding the sword shook his head gently and kept sighing.
Carlos's slash that ripped through the sky was truly stunning.
Judging from Hawkeye's character, such a move seems much more reasonable.
"But then again, the sword in Carlos's hand...
"Supremely sharp sword." The sword-wielding Five Elders regained their composure and slowly uttered a few words.
"Not only can it store Haki, I can also feel an aura unique to Ghost."
"This is definitely a supremely sharp sword that is not inferior to First Generation Kitetsu!"
"If you are promoted to a black sword in the future, its power will be unimaginable..."
Saint Saturn's eyes lit up.
"So, Carlos's idea was successful?"
Facing the confused looks of several people around him, he laid out the matter.
Everyone's expressions suddenly became excited.
"What are you waiting for? Let Vegapunk make a batch of fusion fruits immediately!"
"No, he is currently devoting himself to the research of Master Ball. According to him, the technological level of this thing is extremely high and cannot be cracked in a short while."
"That's right, after all, it is a mysterious creation that can subdue Kaido in an instant, and the secret must be discovered."
"Since this guy joined CPO in the past few months, he has continued to surprise us. This guy is becoming more and more unpredictable."
"That's right."
Everyone kept sighing with emotion.
The blond short-haired Five Elders seemed to have thought of something, and their expressions suddenly changed.
"Wait a minute, we seem to have overlooked a serious problem."
Facing the doubtful looks of several people around him, he took a deep breath.
"A meticulous mind, outstanding abilities, possessing mysterious items that even Vegapunk cannot create, and a terrifying strength comparable to that of the Emperor of the Sea. Now, he has taken control of Marine...
"What will happen if Carlos loses control and betrays us?"
