Zoro looked at the number 3 on Galdino's head with some exasperation.
Connecting it to the system of Baroque Works that the snot-nosed guy once mentioned,
it shouldn't be a very difficult thing to guess, right?
He suppressed the urge to complain about Galdino.
However, he carefully caught the key information in Galdino's words.
"Candle liquid?? You wouldn't happen to be a Devil Fruit User, would you??"
Zoro looked again at the white house, which was clearly made of different materials, and he became even more convinced of his judgment.
"That's right, I am a Candle Man who ate the Wax-Wax Fruit."
Galdino had no intention of hiding this.
After all, in his eyes, Zoro was already a dead man.
There was no harm in revealing his secrets to a dead man.
As he spoke, he proudly displayed his Devil Fruit Ability.
White sticky liquid continuously dripped from his arm, looking very disgusting.
"He really is a Devil Fruit User."
Although he had already made a judgment in his heart, with the person's confirmation,
he became even more cautious, as all the Devil Fruit Users he had encountered so far were very troublesome.
After learning about the opponent's Devil Fruit Ability and identity, Zoro's eyes instantly changed, entering a combat state.
"Kid, don't make a futile struggle, Candle Sculpture Fist!!"
Numerous candle liquids gushed from Galdino's fist, then transformed into powerful gauntlets that enveloped his fist.
The next second, he fired it towards Zoro.
"Don't be too arrogant, after all, we have already defeated several Devil Fruit Users."
"Two Sword Style: Hawk Wave!!"
With a loud bang, the slash and the candle collided.
"Hmm??"
To Zoro's surprise, his slash did not cut through Galdino's candle; instead, it was retracted by him again.
A hint of seriousness and caution appeared on Zoro's face.
"Hahahaha"
Galdino couldn't help but mock.
And after hearing Galdino's words, Zoro not only didn't feel fear, but instead became even more excited.
"Candle with the hardness of steel??"
"Perfect, I was just worried about not having an opponent. Let you be my whetstone, and let me successfully enter the realm of cutting steel."
At this moment, an endless fighting spirit surged from Zoro.
Galdino:...Seeing the sudden surge of fighting spirit from Zoro, Galdino also became serious.
"Golden Week, it seems we've encountered no ordinary swordsman."
"But no matter how powerful a pirate, in front of me, it's absolutely impossible to defeat me."
"Give up resisting, Swordsman!!"
Zoro and Galdino both became serious at the same time.
A great battle was about to erupt.
