Just as the Caroso had just turned its bow, the ship also began to turn its bow and stretched out several oversized oars for artificial acceleration.
On the other ship, the Red Firth.
"How did you meet that guy!!! Slide the paddle quickly and escape from this sea area at full speed!!!"
Shanks, who had lost one of his left arms, stared at the sail of the approaching ship in the distance with his mouth wide open in disbelief.
Dancing and dancing, he directed the brothers on the ship to try their best to distance themselves from the approaching Caroso.
"Hey, what about Shanks?"
With a bulging belly and a ball-shaped body, Lachi Lu grabbed the bones and meat with one hand and gnawed at it, but the speed of paddling with the other hand was indeed not slow at all.
"Boss! You can't keep the distance at all! If you keep going like this, you will definitely be caught up!"
"Shanks, why don't you just obey."
Ben Beckman sat on the observation deck, holding a cigar in his mouth, using a telescope to quietly stare at Caroso, who was getting closer and closer. He could already see the people on the boat.
Kazan stood on a black dragon head and stood out very conspicuously. He approached with a sinister smile on his face. To be honest, it was quite eye-catching.
"How can it be repaired! How can I let you catch up! Kazan!!! Kids! Shoot for me!"
Even without a telescope, Shanks seemed to be vaguely aware of Kazan's gradually amplifying abnormal aura. He took out the 'Griffin' from his waist with his right hand and roared at the boys on the boat.
The crew members of the red-haired pirate group did not hesitate and immediately began to carry the cannon on the ship, aiming it at Caruso, preparing to fire when the opponent came within range.
According to Shanks' usual description of the 'red dog', this ordinary cannon is unlikely to have any impact on the opponent. The so-called 'cannon' is just one of the ways the red-haired pirates greet their friends at sea.
.
Hawkeye Joracol Mihawk often experienced their special 'greeting'.
Judging from the exaggerated tone and actions of Shanks, the crew members of the red-haired pirates knew that Shanks was not serious at all. In fact, Shanks seemed quite happy to see Kazan.
However, this can only be seen through the tacit understanding between them.
...
"Kazan! The red-haired pirates are firing in this direction!"
"snort!"
Swish swish swish.
Boom boom boom.
Kazan snorted disdainfully, pulled out the Dark Moon with one hand, swung a few swords in the air, and cut away the cannonballs in mid-air with a few red flying slashes.
The cannonball was cut in half in mid-air and exploded, and then the flying slash continued to fly towards the Red Forth.
the other side.
"Hoho, swordsman, Shanks, why didn't you bring someone of this level onto the ship?"
"Of course that kind of guy is more interesting as an opponent, and... I don't think he is the kind of guy who would stoop to others."
Shanks also jumped to the bow of the ship and used Griffin to swing his sword randomly to scatter the sword energy that was about to hit him.
The two captains of the Monster Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates stood on the bows of their respective ships, looking at each other across the sea.
The next moment, Kazan instantly entered the peak state, his power was infinitely approaching Level 6, he pulled out two knives with both hands and placed them in front of him and began to accumulate power. The blood emanating from his body was richer and bloody than before.
Shanks on the other side was not slow at all. He held the Griffin with one hand and raised it high, ready to chop it down at any time.
Seeing their boss's posture, the crew members on the Red Forth stopped what they were doing, and the entire ship stopped moving away.
The monster Caroso was still approaching, and Kazan and Shanks could already see each other's expressions from a distance.
Bang!
"Meow!!!"
Under this sea area, a small cat-headed sea king was attracted by Kazan's blood and jumped out of the sea directly, making a huge and sharp roar.
At the same moment, Kazan and Shanks drew their swords at the same time!
Flying Cross Slash!
The veins in Kazan's arms popped out, and he used all his strength to slash out a cross slash in the air. The scarlet cross slash remained in the air and slashed forward. Together with Shanks' blue flying slash, it hit the sea cat.
on the body.
In an instant, a huge "meter"-shaped hole was cut out in the center of the sea cat's body. The sea king, who was considered a nightmare in the world, died with a howl and floated motionless on the sea.
Since truly accepting this power, Kazan has become more and more comfortable in using these blood moves, and the power of his skills has been slightly improved, and they are more smooth.
"...Is it because of a broken arm?"
Kazan smacked his mouth. Even though his buffs were fully activated, he never expected that he could dissipate Shanks' sword energy so easily.
The only difference in swordsmanship level is that Shanks doesn't seem to have made any progress. It can even be said that he has regressed. It feels like he is only at the level of Lv5, which is the level of Kassen, and maybe a little lower.
Kazan took into account the reason why Shanks broke his arm, but the reason why he is still confused is that he did not take into account the time when Shanks broke his arm.
Not long after the red-haired pirates left Windmill Village, Shanks had just lost his arm and had not yet adapted to life with only one arm, let alone fighting.
With one broken arm and a Level 5 swordsmanship level, he is already very powerful. Perhaps it was due to Mihawk's frenzied pursuit for a month and a half.
After this test, the Monster Caruso and the Red Firth approached each other, and finally docked at the same time on both sides of the Shanghai Cat's body on the sea.
The members of the monster family stood on the deck and looked at each other with the crew of the red-haired pirates. The scene was a bit serious.
Within three seconds, Shanks and Kazakhstan burst into laughter.
"It's a party! Wahahahaha"
"We have a sparring partner! Wow hahahaha"
"..."
"..."
"Turn the ship around! Leave this sea area at full speed! Return to the Grand Line!"
"Throw the anchor to the opposite ship, don't let them get away!"

Ps: Tell me what I think about the claw marks on Shanks’ left eye.
First of all, the time points when Shanks appeared can be divided into when Roger was on board - when Luffy was a child - before and after the War on the Top.
Then there were definitely no scratches when he was on Roger's boat, and the first time he saw the scratches was when he appeared in Windmill Village.
In other words, during this period, Shanks had a fight with Teach and was scratched. The exact location is difficult to guess, but we can make a bold guess as to the reason.
With Teach's ambition and forbearance, the only thing that could allow him to take action against someone of Shanks's level at the risk of exposing his strength was the 'Dark Fruit'.
As you can see, the ‘Dark Fruit’ and the ‘Rubber Fruit’ are similar in appearance! Only the patterns on them are a little different, but the colors are the same!
Therefore, I personally guess that it was during the time when Shanks got the rubber fruit before Shanks entered Windmill Village that he saw the rubber fruit as a dark fruit, so he shot and scratched his eyes!
It only represents my personal opinion. If you have different ideas, you can tell me. Maybe I will use it in the future.
