Chapter 495: Fighting with Shanks
After saying this, Satan hung up the Den Den Mushi directly, seeming a little cold, but when Vic said that Red Hair rejected him, Satan had no intention of continuing.
If it were someone else, they would definitely negotiate the contract and conditions, after all, it has to be someone recognized by Victor, but Shanks has no such intention at all, which means fully respecting Shanks' wishes.
On the surface, it seems that he doesn't care much about Shanks' performance. Shanks is indeed very young, which gives people a feeling that he may be unreliable. There is indeed no flaw in his overall performance, but Satan doesn't know that there is a person with a God's perspective opposite him.
"Haha! The matter is settled. Let's have a party first. After you've had enough food and drink, I'll beat you up to avenge the beating I received last time!"
Victor put away the Den Den Mushi and said with a smile that he was slightly inferior to Shanks last time, but this time he was confident that he could beat Shanks into a pig's head and make the future youngest emperor of the sea bear another defeat, so as not to let Hawkeye have all the glory. Hawkeye excels in swordsmanship, and Victor will excel in domineering and physical skills.
When Rebecca heard what Vic said, she couldn't help but remember that the last time Vic deliberately got beaten was for her, and since Vic's parents were killed by pirates, he seemed like a different person.
He is no longer the introverted and naive child. He has to take everything into his own hands. He has walked the most difficult and diligent path to become stronger, just to protect those he cares about.
And she herself was also arranged perfectly. The two of them embarked on completely different paths in life. They were no longer ordinary people who relied on luck to survive. Instead, they could become the light that illuminates ordinary people and become their luck. Rebecca looked at Vic intently and sighed.
"Hahaha! Come on, who's afraid of who? I haven't been idle during this period either!"
Shanks took a sip of wine and said proudly. He just wanted to see how strong Vic was now. Even a strong man like the Golden Lion was killed by him.
You know, Golden Lion was a strong rival of his former Roger Pirates. If it weren't for that big storm, it would be hard to say who would win. Even though Golden Lion lost both legs later, he should not be underestimated!
……
The banquet ended three hours later. During this period, Shanks sent people to the island to hunt twice. The main reason was that Victor ate too much and his stomach was like a bottomless pit, which completely shocked everyone in the Red Hair Pirates.
Rebecca and the others were used to it. Vic had a normal appetite on the warship, but he ate as much as he could at the island banquet and never indulged his appetite.
"Vic! Tell me, how do we spar?"
After the banquet, Shanks brought Vic to the coast, which was the battlefield he chose, and he tried his best not to damage the island.
Several people from the navy on Rebecca's side and almost all the pirates from the Red Hair Pirates followed behind. They had to watch this battle.
"With our physical strength, we should be able to fight for three days and three nights. Fighting normally will only waste time and damage the island. Why don't we just compress the battle into a few dozen moves? What do you think?"
Vic thought for a moment and replied that the purpose of the battle was different and the process would naturally be different. Some strong men could not determine the winner for days and nights, while others could decide the outcome in just a few moves. Vic did not want to spend so much time and could just use his strongest strength to determine the winner.
"Okay, just what I want!"
Shanks frowned slightly, took off the straw hat on his head and threw it to Beckman, then pulled out the Griffin from his waist and directly wrapped it with Armament Haki. It was obvious that he was going to fight for real. Although it was just a sparring match, he would not hold back, but would stop and show mercy after the opponent fell.
Vic put away the smile on his face and drew out the two knives from his waist. The armed color domineering spread out from his palms and wrapped around the blades.
The people who were watching the fun stood far away, knowing that the aftermath of such a fight between strong men would be unpleasant, especially a fight between swordsmen. It was even more dangerous. You had no idea which direction a slash would suddenly come from and cut you in half, and if you stood too close you couldn't even dodge it.
"God avoids!"
"Slay the dragon!"
The two of them used their strongest sword moves in perfect harmony. Two extremely terrifying slashes collided in the open space between them. The two slashes crossed each other like a cross, and neither side gave in!
The buzzing sound of the slashing and collision was not very loud, but it spread throughout the entire island. The powerful beasts on the island became uneasy, and the weaker ones were already trembling on the way back to their nests.
The marines on the warship also looked over here. They could vaguely see two huge glowing slashes and thought that Wick and the pirates on the island were already fighting each other. They silently cheered for Wick in their hearts.
After a long time, the two slashes finally disappeared due to mutual consumption. The slashes of the two were evenly matched, and there was no need to continue fighting with long-range attacks. Both of them thought so in their hearts, and their figures disappeared from the field in an instant.
When the two appeared again, they were already engaged in close combat. Shanks' Griffin blocked Vic's double swords. With a clang sound of metal collision, a strong gust of wind blew in all directions.
Some short shrubs have been blown up from the ground, and the weaker pirates have been turned into rolling gourds. Only the powerful cadres can stand in the strong wind. The battle between the two has become fierce at the beginning!
Vic tapped his feet and flew into the air. With Griffin as the center, he directly flew behind Shanks. He landed, squatted, and turned around instantly, slashing Shanks' lower back with both swords in parallel.
Vic's double swords were no longer wrapped in the Armament Haki. The Armament Haki domineering on them had come alive, leaping up and down surging. This was the use of Ryuo.
Shanks seemed to have eyes on his back. He turned slightly and brought the Griffin Blade down to block in front of him. There was another ding sound, and Shanks' face changed slightly. He slid on the ground for seven or eight meters before stopping.
Through these two moves, Shanks realized that his strength and speed were not as good as Victor's. The last time they fought, their strength was equal, but Victor's progress was greater than his. The other members of the pirate group also realized that their boss was at a disadvantage, and they were cheering for him in their hearts.
After the two men stood still, they quickly disappeared again. This time, many people only heard the continuous sound of metal collision and the disorderly strong wind blowing, and the two figures disappeared from the field.
Only Beckman's eyes were moving back and forth quickly. Everyone else could only use their observation Haki to barely keep up with the two auras. The two men's movement speed was too fast, which was beyond the ability of ordinary eyes to capture, and ordinary observation Haki was a bit strenuous.
Vic was very surprised at Shanks' speed, because he needed to use the power of the Speed-Speed Fruit slightly to be on par with Shanks' speed. If he wanted to defeat him, he had to use the power of the fruit a little more.
But Shanks was able to keep up with him by relying on pure physical speed. This speed was already very abnormal. This made Vic realize that his physical speed had not reached the limit of the human body and there was still room for improvement in the future.
Vic has a new direction of practice. You know, the faster the speed of the main body, with the bonus of the Speed Fruit, the speed will naturally be faster after the multiple. This is a quantitative change caused by the large base!
Shanks also had a new understanding of Vic's power. Vic was only a head taller than him, and his body was slender and well-proportioned, not the kind of big and muscular guy.
Judging from their body size, the two men should be similar in strength, but Vic's strength is far superior to his. He is like a human-shaped Tyrannosaurus Rex, and he can only rely on his explosive power to resist.
