Chapter 992: World No. 1
"I can defeat Hawkeye Mihawk with this sword in my hand, so I don't need a better sword. I'm used to it!"
Due to material reasons, even though the sword in Kuina's hand was forged jointly by Vic and Kozaburo, it is still at the level of a great sword. Although it is only a step away from the supreme great sword, it is still a step away!
The Wado Ichimonji in Zoro's hand was imitated by Vic later, and it is also a high-level sword. Vic did not owe him anything. To Zoro, the meaning may be different, but Zoro doesn't know it. He will still hold the sword in his mouth and cherish it!
Vic glanced at the long sword that Guina leaned against her shoulder. The handle and scabbard of the sword were tied with black cloth, so the original appearance and color of the sword could not be seen.
This knife was refined into a black knife by Kuina a few years ago, just like the Falling Water of her ancestor Shimotsuki Ryoma. A swordsman's knife is indeed easier to be refined into a black knife, just like a person's left and right hands, if they are used too much!
"Don't let the title of world number one disturb your mind, don't be confused, don't indulge yourself, if there is no opponent, then treat yourself as the opponent.
As long as you are better today than you were yesterday, and you are better tomorrow than you are today, that’s enough. The road ahead is endless, and there are people ahead. As long as you are strong enough, you can meet that person! "
Vic raised his glass and clinked it with the glass in Kuina's hand, then stood up and left, leaving Kuina in deep thought!
Vic's abnormal behavior in recent years has long aroused everyone's suspicion. They only found out not long ago that Vic was worried about the Celestial Dragons. Now he is saying such words to her, which is very meaningful!
Among Vic's companions, not many have dreams. Rebecca definitely wants to be with Vic forever, Yamato wants to drive Kaido out of Wano Country, and Kuina's goal is to become the world's greatest swordsman!
Wendy wants to free her country from the control of Big Mom's pirate group, Barnett wants to avenge his family and kill the pirates who harmed his family, and Mantis wants to protect his hometown. Their wishes have now come true!
There are also some who have no clear goals. Ian was rescued from human traffickers by Wick and was raised by Wick. Fredek was snatched back from pirates by Wick and it was Wick who gave him a second life!
Kang Bo wanted to join on his own initiative, he just wanted to become stronger, he didn't have any specific goals. Olga was a person from hundreds of years ago, she now just wants to eat, drink and have fun with the Thunder God Pirates. These few people don't have any goals!
Tiger's dream is that there will be no more slaves in this world. This is the most difficult to achieve, even more difficult than Vic's dream of killing Im and overthrowing the world government!
Olivia has a lot of thoughts. The first one must be Robin's safety and happiness. The second one is to find out the history of the blank hundred years and avenge O'Hara by the way. The third one must be related to Vic, so there is no need to say more!
Barrett is now considered a peripheral member. Vic doesn't want to know his ambitions, but there is a high probability that they will not be realized!
For those who have achieved their goals, Vic has to set a new goal for them, otherwise they will become lazy and just get by.
It is very painful to have no goals in life. Without motivation, direction and self-awareness, it will be useless after a long time. Vic doesn't want to see his friends like this!
Vic chatted with his friends whom he hadn't seen for a while, learned about their recent situation and set new goals for them. Vic no longer expected them to help him, but only hoped that in the final battle, they could protect themselves and survive the hands of those immortal monsters!
After all, the war was dominated by the victory or defeat of the God Realm, and his companions? The older ones didn't have that talent, and the younger ones didn't have that accumulation. It was extremely difficult to break through to the God Realm in a short period of time!
……
Time passed quickly, and several days went by quickly. During these days, Vic was not busy comprehending the laws, but fighting with his partners one by one, to see their progress during this period, point out the flaws in their moves, and correct the direction of their practice!
It hasn't been long since we last separated, and except for Rebecca, Yamato, and Kuina, the others haven't made much progress!
Victor was not disappointed. How many people could improve after every battle like Luffy? The number of geniuses was limited, and this was true in every world. Moreover, there were only a few people in Victor's pirate group, so it was good enough to have a few talented ones!
"Vic! This is today's newspaper. There's news about Kuina. Take a look!"
When Vic got up early to eat, Olivia brought him today's newspaper. This is what she has been doing all the time. She is a bit like a life assistant, but Olivia is a more personal life assistant, and sometimes even creates a negative distance!
"Well, Kuina told me that our pirate group has produced the world's greatest swordsman.
I guess after this news spreads, there will be a lot of people coming to challenge Kuina. Given Kuina's personality, she won't agree to many challenges. Let me think about how to set up the test. Not everyone is qualified to challenge the world's greatest swordsman!"
The front page headline of the World Economic Times said that the world's number one swordsman had changed hands. Hawkeye had been number one for decades, and this time he was defeated. It was also a big news, and it was not an exaggeration to have it on the front page!
Vic can already imagine that a large number of the swordsmen who were defeated by Hawkeye will challenge Kuina again!
Although Kuina defeated Hawkeye, people are different. Just because you can defeat Hawkeye doesn't mean you can defeat us. There are many cases where you restrain me, I restrain him, and he restrains you. Many people will have this idea: I can't beat a man, but there should be no problem beating a woman, right?
Kuina doesn't have that much time to fight, and not everyone is qualified for her to take action. If she is pissed off, many challengers will definitely stay on this island forever. Kuina's temper is not that good. Vic set up the test to prevent everyone from living on an island with countless undead!
"Why don't we let Kang Bo lead Kuina? He is a practical fighter. The more he fights, the braver and stronger he becomes. He can fight with many kendo masters, which will be of great benefit to him!"
Olivia suggested that Kang Bo is also a swordsman, but his strength is not as good as Kuina. However, he has a strong learning ability and is most suitable to improve himself in actual combat, so Olivia made this suggestion!
"Of course, if he wants to."
Vic didn't care much about it. Kangbo was introduced to the Thunder God Pirates by Rebecca. When the two first met, he was only slightly weaker than Rebecca!
But later one followed Vic onto the highway, while the other took a lot of detours, and when they met again, the gap between them was quite big!
After Kangbo joined the Thunder God Pirates, he had the correct guidance and practical experience. He has caught up a lot over the years. It’s just that he doesn’t have the ability of the fruit, so he still can’t beat Rebecca. Such strength is already very strong, and if he is taken outside, he will be a true vice-emperor-level fighter!
Vic continued to read the follow-up news, which wrote about Kuina's first gain after defeating Hawkeye. It was not a good thing for ordinary people, but for pirates, it was a medal of honor!
That's right, I'm talking about the bounty. The World Government did not pretend to be blind to the fact that Kuina reached the top of kendo this time. And because of her bad relationship with Vic, Kuina's bounty increased a lot, and the total has reached 23 billion Beli!
