"Another major event has happened?"
Shanks' expression couldn't help but freeze, and the attack in his hand was a beat slower.
Mihawk, who was fighting with excitement, frowned, and the black sword he chopped out with his hand hurriedly turned to avoid Shanks.
Buzz!
The air was instantly torn apart, and a blade of light that was more than ten meters long flew across the deserted mountain for hundreds of meters.
Forcibly cutting it off by half.
Rumble!
The mountain collapsed suddenly, raising a large amount of dust.
Watching this scene, Shanks laughed awkwardly, saying, "Mihawk, look, I'm distracted again. You won this battle."
"However, this time, your fighting spirit seems to be too high. You suddenly ran over to spar with me. I'm really not used to it. Didn't you say that you don't like bullying the disabled?"
"Was it because of that Laxus' matter that you were affected!"
As one of the Four Emperors, Shanks, of course, knew clearly about the battle between Laxus and Kaido of the Beasts.
What's more, this matter involved his old friend Mihawk.
"Hmph, you always find this kind of excuse every time. Shanks, you haven't made any progress in this!" Mihawk put the black sword back into its sheath with his backhand, and then snorted coldly, saying.
"However, at that time, I did underestimate that kid. I didn't expect that he was hiding the identity of a great swordsman. If I can see him again, I hope to fight him once."
Watching Mihawk, whose nature was suddenly cold and dull, and who was completely a straight steel man, actually reveal a trace of eagerness,
Shanks couldn't help but be a little surprised.
It was the first time he had seen Mihawk be interested in a person.
After all, in Shanks' eyes, among the older generation, the number of swordsmen who could be on the scene was completely limited.
For Mihawk, the only person who he could spar with was his most familiar friend, Shanks.
Faced with this opponent who was already familiar and couldn't be more familiar, Mihawk was more enthusiastic about the existence of some people who could catch his eye among the younger generation.
The appearance of Laxus undoubtedly became a stepping stone.
"Hehe, it's rare for you to be interested in a little guy. It seems that I have to go and see next time too." Shanks laughed dryly and put his saber back into its sheath.
Looking at Benn Beckman, who was approaching, he frowned and said, "I rarely see you react so much. Could it be that the kid on Whitebeard's ship had an accident? I was originally planning to personally negotiate with Whitebeard."
"That Blackbeard Teach isn't as simple as he seems on the surface!"
"If Ace goes to pursue him alone, he will completely fall into Teach's trap. At that time, Whitebeard will definitely go berserk for his adopted son."
"No! It should be said that the old era, which has been silent for so many years, will definitely go berserk!"
Watching Shanks, whose face suddenly had a hint of solemnity, Mihawk raised his eyebrows and said, "Shanks, you're worried that you've been waiting for this moment for a long time. It seems that the kid you relied on, the one you bet your arm on in the new era, hasn't grown up yet?"
Back then, Shanks, who was infinitely close to the position of the Four Emperors, lost an arm in the East Blue.
That shocked the entire New World.
Even his best friend Dracule Mihawk, after getting the news, rushed over as soon as possible.
However, in the second dimension, squinting eyes and disabled people were symbols of perverted powerhouses.
After losing his arm, Shanks instead advanced by leaps and bounds, did a few big things, and had a fight with Whitebeard and the others.
Completely solidified his seat as the Fourth Emperor.
"Mihawk, you still understand me!" Shanks smiled and patted Mihawk's shoulder.
"That kid and Fire Fist Ace are brothers. If something happens to Ace, Luffy will definitely not sit idly by, and if he's not careful, he might lose his life."
"What's more, that kid Fire Fist Ace, I've had a banquet with him and drank wine with him. He's a good kid!"
Faced with this statement, Mihawk didn't delve into it, saying, "Since you're willing to intervene in this matter, but still remember that Whitebeard isn't a good-tempered guy. Being able to become a Four Emperor, they're all ruthless characters!"
Watching the two of you saying one thing and I saying another, completely like they were going astray,
Benn Beckman forgot to smoke the cigar he was holding. After the ashes burned his lips, he suddenly came back to his senses and said urgently, "Shanks, Mihawk, you've misunderstood."
"The major event that happened this time has nothing to do with Whitebeard."
"On the contrary, it's related to the Fifth Emperor Skull Demon who has recently appeared on the sea."
While saying this, Benn Beckman handed over two newspapers.
"Three days ago, Escanor, the Solar Fruit user who attacked the Sabaody Archipelago and killed the Beast Pirates' executives, attacked Enies Lobby and destroyed the Tower of Justice!"
"Half a day later, he appeared on the Red Line, destroyed half of Mary Geoise, the Holy Land, and finally, faced with Admiral Kizaru, he took away the Devil Child Nico Robin, who had been secretly arrested."
Speaking of this, Benn Beckman flipped out the newspaper, revealing the second front-page headline, saying, "However, what makes us more worthy of attention is that this Escanor, who is known as the Sin of Pride and now has a bounty of 1 billion berries, may be from the same place as the Skull Demon, who has a bounty of 2.4 billion berries."
"If this intelligence guess is true, then it means that there is still unlimited potential behind them. The worst inference is that a huge force group that is as terrifying as the Rocks Pirates fifty years ago will rise. At that time, the forces in the New World will shuffle!"
The slightly awkward words echoed in the sky, unable to dissipate for a long time.
Even Lucky Roux and the others, who had arrived later, couldn't help but change their expressions slightly.
Benn Beckman didn't make it clear, but they knew clearly that the rise of a hidden force would have the greatest impact on them Four Emperors.
"The Rocks Pirates?" Shanks' eyes narrowed slightly.
When he joined the Red Hair Pirates and became a cabin boy, the Rocks Pirates had already been dismantled.
The captain of the ship, Rocks, had also completely disappeared.
However, from the mouths of Rayleigh and others, Shanks had often heard of Rocks' fierce name.
That was a terrifying existence that could gather Kaido of the Beasts, Whitebeard, Charlotte Linlin, and even Shiki.
If there really was a connection between the Skull Demon and Escanor, the two of them had already shown the strength to be able to fight the admirals and retreat unscathed.
If there were other people hidden behind them, then it would definitely be a huge impact on this sea.
Even Shanks, who was one of the Four Emperors, had to face it squarely.
"Benn Beckman, prepare immediately. I'm going to see Whitebeard in person. If possible, before the situation on this sea becomes clear, I want to stop the era from going berserk," Shanks said with a sinking expression, taking the lead in speaking.
Faced with his decision, Dracule Mihawk fell into silence.
He vaguely thought of a more important question.
According to the newspaper's inference, the relationship between the Skull Demon and Escanor was linked together from having no origin.
That situation was undoubtedly similar to the sudden appearance of Laxus!
