One Piece: The Long Road

Vol 3 Chapter 16: Fighting

.

After walking for a while, Simon returned to the street. At this time, the street was still lively.

Looking around, Simon did not find the figure of the navy, indicating that Smog was not nearby.

Simon, who was going to meet with Smoker, saw a direction and walked quickly.

“I heard that there are two devil fruit powers fighting in front of you.”

“Yeah, there was such a big noise that I was scared and ran over.”

Simon, who was walking, heard the conversation of the crowd in front, and was stunned for a while, “Devil Fruit Powers are fighting? Could it be…” With a move in his heart, Simon stepped on his feet and ran quickly to the front.

Suddenly, a sound came from the sky, causing Simon to stop and look up.

Above the sky, a fiery flame and a thick white smoke entangled together, forming a scene that stunned pedestrians on the street. Under the entanglement and collision of the two elements, one could faintly see the bursting out of that energy. fireworks.

“This!” Simon looked at the flames and white smoke in the sky in surprise, “Who did the old smoker fight with…”

In Simon’s astonishment for a while, the tornado-like energy body in the sky suddenly dissipated into nothingness, but for some unknown reason.

Simon didn’t know what happened at all, so he could only look at the place of the incident as soon as possible, move his feet, speed up, and run towards the direction of the energy body.

At this time, there were not many people on the street. It must have been frightened by this huge power and didn’t know where to hide. Because there was almost no one on the street, Simon didn’t have much hindrance in the process of running.

After running for a while, there was another fire curtain formed by red flames in the air in front of me. Above the fire curtain, the red flames were beating non-stop, as if the air was used as fuel and burned extremely vigorously. , with no sign of decay.

Looking at the fire curtain that opened between heaven and earth, Simon, who was at a distance from him, seemed to be able to feel the heat brought by the flame.

“Natural Fruit Ability!” While running, Simon’s expression was extremely solemn. Looking at this flame, the destructive power was definitely not ordinary.

“Who is that person?”

Simon, who was running, suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice and stopped immediately. A group of people were running towards him not far ahead.

Looking at the straw hat on the leader’s head, Simon’s straight body trembled, his right hand stretched and shrank very quickly, and the nameless epee was already in his hand.

“Luffy, I finally see you again!” Simon stared at the group of people in front of him with cold eyes, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, excited…or afraid.

And this group of people is Luffy’s group.

“Hey, that’s my brother!” Luffy pressed his straw hat with one hand and smiled happily. He hadn’t seen Ace for several years, and he didn’t expect to meet him here today, which made him very excited.

“What!” Usopp exclaimed in surprise.

“Sure enough, the monster’s brother is also a monster.” Nami couldn’t help but sighed when she thought of the raging flames.

“Hehe.” Luffy smiled.

“Stop!” Sauron, who was running, suddenly snorted coldly and stopped first. His palm had already climbed up to the hilt of the knife. He saw a man, a man he met in Rogge Town who made him feel dangerous. .

Luffy and the others were very puzzled when they heard Zoro’s words, but with the trust of their partners, they all stopped running at the first time.

“Huh?” At this time, Sanji also saw Simon in the distance, and his face changed slightly.

“What’s wrong?” Usopp looked at Zoro and Sanji strangely. He also saw Simon, but he was very puzzled by Zoro’s reaction. However, Luffy’s words suddenly made him realize.

“Ah!” At this time, Luffy finally saw Simon and shouted in surprise, “Simon, you are coming to Alabasta too!”

Suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Simon ignored what Luffy said, and squeezed the hilt tightly with his palms, staring at Luffy and the others with a cold expression.

“I can’t hesitate, only in this way can I move on!” Simon kept echoing these words in his heart.

“Simon?” Nami whispered, “This is the dangerous man Sauron spoke of.”

“Ah?” Hearing Nami’s words, Chopper and Vivi, who didn’t know Simon, suddenly exclaimed, which was almost the same as Nami’s reaction at the time.

Nami and the others immediately focused their attention on Simon, who had a cold face.

Holding a very rare epee in his hand, the length and width are very different from ordinary knives. It seems that the epee has killed more people, and there is a cold suffocating aura under the simple and unpretentious.

Junyi’s face has a pair of dark eyes with chills. He is wearing a black suit that blends with the epee in his hand. impression.

This is a man who will not go unnoticed anywhere.

It seemed that he felt a different atmosphere than before, Luffy’s smile gradually dissipated, his expression suddenly became serious, he pressed the straw hat down slightly, bowed his head slightly, and said solemnly: “Ah, if Simon, you want to stop here. I would be very embarrassed.”

“Shh!”

In response to Luffy, the epee in his hand suddenly swiped into the air, and Simon’s sword pointed straight at Luffy, silent.

At this time, Sanji threw the cigarette in his mouth on the ground, stepped on and twisted his feet in leather shoes, and looked at Simon alertly.

And Zoro’s words of He Daoyi were completely unsheathed, and he looked coldly at Simon who was holding a heavy sword, and said in a low voice: “Luffy, leave it to me!”

Seeing Zoro’s fighting stance, Luffy shook his head expressionlessly and did not speak, but his meaning was already very clear.

“Cut.” Zoro turned his head to one side, and He Daoyi’s words were instantly sheathed. He would not violate the captain’s order.

Luffy squeezed his hands together, his expressionless face suddenly burst into a smile, looked at Simon and said, “If you want to stop me, you can only beat me!”

Simon was stunned by that smile, and then, after a while, the stunned expression on his face disappeared in an instant, returning to a cold expression, Simon said coldly: “It’s better to hold on to the determination to kill me, otherwise, you will die. !”

“Hee hee.” Luffy smiled indifferently, and after letting his companions move away, his body was short, his feet stood on a horse stance, and his left hand was pressed on the curved right hand, in a fighting stance.

Simon’s eyes narrowed and he said in his heart, “Come on, everything will end in this battle.”

Tightening the epee in his hand, Simon stared at Luffy’s movements.

“Rubber fist!” Luffy’s bent right hand stretched back, and with the words in his mouth, he suddenly pushed forward, his arm suddenly stretched forward like a rubber and hit Simon.

“It’s too slow.” Simon’s body gave up slightly, and the stretched punch easily flashed past. At the same time, his dark eyes suddenly galloped, and he shouted in his heart: “I will never hesitate any more.”

Simon moved his hand and looked at the stretched arm. The heavy sword in his hand turned into a black shadow and slashed towards the arm. At the same time, Luffy stretched out and kicked Simon at the same time. come over.

Ignoring the foot that was kicking towards him, Simon’s eyes were full of murderous intent, and the speed of the epee slashing down did not hesitate at all.

“Bang!” “Hey!”

Before the heavy sword could cut Luffy’s arm, Simon was kicked and flew out, causing the sword that could have cut off Luffy’s arm only to draw a terrifying wound.

Luffy frowned, first glanced at the blood gushing out of his arm, and then looked at Simon who was kicked down in the distance. For the first time, he saw Simon’s fighting style, and he probably won’t attack so hasty next time. Now~www.readwn.com~ After receiving Luffy’s seemingly powerful kick, Simon stood up unscathed. This level of injury did not affect him at all.

Looking at Luffy’s bleeding wound, Simon’s expression was still cold, but his tone was a little disdainful, as if to hide some emotions, and the disdain was particularly strong.

“Only at this level, you are still far behind…”

Simon’s words did not make Luffy have any reaction. Looking at the bleeding arm, Luffy realized that Simon was serious, and he was fighting with the idea of killing me. If he didn’t take this fight as a return If things happen, maybe it will really be as he said, I will die…

“Are you serious…” Luffy took the straw hat on his head in his hand, looked at Simon with a cold look, and then threw his arm back, and the straw hat flew towards Zoro and the others.

For the battle, if Luffy does not have a clear purpose, he will not be able to exert his power beyond himself. In fact, for Simon, Luffy really regards him as a friend, but now this friend is holding the one who killed him. The determination is fighting against himself, so he must and must take this fight seriously.

Seeing the straw hat flying towards her, Nami caught the straw hat like a conditioned reflex. She glanced at the wound on Luffy’s arm and said worriedly, “Luffy… is it okay?”

Zoro stared coldly ahead with his arms in his arms. Hearing Nami’s words, his expression did not change, and he said solemnly: “Don’t worry, Luffy has his own measure.” The state of being able to shoot instantly.

And Nami and the others looked silently at the captain who never let them worry during the battle.
