Chapter 101 I told you to train your muscles, but you wouldn't listen.
The enemy was ready for battle, and Yelena drew her longsword, ready for action.
Gustav Eugene swallowed the strong liquor in his mouth, his eyes filled with malice as he looked over. "Kill her, Lorne!"
This statement is tantamount to declaring the start of the battle.
Lorne used his thumb to pry open the guard, revealing a portion of the sharp blade.
Whoosh!
He transformed into a blur and charged forward!
With every step he takes, he gets a fraction faster!
Yelena narrowed her eyes, her gaze fixed on her opponent's every move.
She suddenly raised her longsword and held it upright in front of her.
The next instant, Lorne drew his sword, and a slash so fast it was invisible to the naked eye came from below!
clang!
The sharp blade struck the sword, producing a crisp sound.
A powerful force burst forth, transforming into a whirlwind that swept around, instantly raising a cloud of dust at the tavern entrance.
The pirates stared at the swordsmen locked in combat, their jaws dropping uncontrollably.
Someone rubbed their eyes and exclaimed in surprise, "How is this possible?! The first mate's Iaijutsu was actually blocked!!"
"Are you kidding me?!"
Seeing this, Robin, who was standing not far away, gradually relaxed her tense eyebrows and returned her crossed hands to her sides.
She chuckled softly, looking down. "Just as powerful as the rumors say."
Eugene, who was leaning against the tavern door, stopped drinking and glanced at Yelena with some surprise.
"Lorne, what happened to you? You got blocked by a woman?"
Lorne took a step back, his disdain replaced by seriousness.
"To think I've encountered a highly skilled swordsman here! You are worthy of death!"
"Really? Thank you for your attention."
Yelena rotated her wrist, where a slight tingling sensation remained.
He nodded to himself. This guy was fast and had decent explosive power. The bounty was well-deserved.
"A strongman like you deserves my full strength. State your name, and I will remember you." Lorne discarded the scabbard and instead held the sword with both hands.
"Let's talk about it next time we meet," if there's another chance.
"What did you say?" Lorne's expression turned to astonishment, but quickly turned to anger. "You dare to underestimate me?! You dare to disregard this duel!"
Yelena nodded.
This damned duel, isn't it you bunch of mad dogs who swarm around and bite me?
"You are not worthy to be a swordsman!"
Lorne roared and swung his sword, unleashing a horizontal slash aimed directly at Yelena's head!
Yelena drew her sword and went to meet them!
The slash is delivered from bottom to top.
clang!
The longsword deflected the katana, and after a brief exchange of crimson and bluish-white sword waves, they quickly splattered outwards.
"Ah!" "Ah!" Two unlucky pirates who were watching the commotion were pierced through the body by tiny sword waves and fell to the ground screaming.
Crash! The tavern window shattered, and the patrons inside screamed and backed away.
Eugene's face was ashen, he held a bottle with the bottom missing in his hand, and the ground around him was covered with spilled liquor and broken glass.
His eyes flashed with a fierce light, his mouth stretched wide, his teeth grinding together, and he took half a step toward Yelena.
Yelena paused, not pressing her advantage against Lorne, who had been forced back several steps by her attack.
She turned to look at Eugene, her gaze turning serious. Just a moment ago, she felt as if she had been targeted by some ferocious beast.
This guy is far stronger than his first mate!
Let's finish this quickly.
Yelena made a decision immediately.
"Watch out!" Robin exclaimed from not far away.
Yelena turned around, and Lorne's knife was already upon her! "Die!"
Taking advantage of her distraction, this guy launched a surprise attack!
Robin crossed her wrists, intending to use her ability to restrict Lorne's movements, when suddenly she paused and her eyes widened.
"You're one of them too..."
Yelena dodged Lorne's thrust and simultaneously activated her ability to enter orc form.
A large, hairy hand grabbed Lorne's arm, which was holding the knife, and lifted him up.
Clench your fists tightly!
Click!
"ah!!"
Lorne screamed in agony as his fingers spread open uncontrollably, and the famous sword "Hanazumi" fell to the ground.
"Bastard! Let me go!!"
Lorne struggled violently, kicking with all his might at the culprit who had imprisoned him in mid-air!
Yelena was kicked several times in the side and thigh.
Aside from a little pain, it didn't cause any other harm.
She grinned, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.
So this is what it feels like to be unable to break through the enemy's defenses!
No wonder Kaido and Big Mom didn't even bother to dodge ordinary attacks during their battle.
However, she was not going to experience it again. She lifted Lorne high up, held the longsword in her other hand, and locked her gaze on his heart.
"Stop right there!"
Eugene roared and leaped toward Yelena's position, raising his dark blue spiked club high, its rows of spikes gleaming menacingly in the sunlight.
Yelena didn't pause for a second, and thrust her longsword into Lorne's heart!
"Six-petaled flowers bloom..."
Suddenly, six arms grew out of Eugene's body, which wrapped around his neck and legs.
Cold sweat beaded on Robin's face as she strained to activate her powers, pulling all six of her arms in the same direction.
"Claw!"
To her surprise, the familiar sound of bones shifting did not come through the air.
Eugene's features contorted for a moment, and he fell uncontrollably from the air.
The embarrassment in Robin's eyes vanished in an instant. She clapped her hands and looked around casually.
Although it did not harm the enemy, it at least disrupted his actions.
Well, we have achieved some results.
The pirates around her glared menacingly, clearly noticing her actions.
"This guy is a power user too!"
"She ambushed Captain Eugene! Take her down!"
The pirates shouted loudly and waved their weapons, but none of them dared to take a step forward.
Robin took the initiative, unleashing "Thirty Flower Blossoms - Hook Claw!"
Click, click...
"Ah!" "Ah!"
The sounds of bones breaking, accompanied by screams, echoed through the air.
Robin nodded in satisfaction. That's more like it.
"I told you to train with me, but you wouldn't listen, acting like I was trying to harm you. Now you realize you're not strong enough, right?"
Yelena pulled the longsword from Lorne's corpse and looked at Robin with a hint of mockery in her eyes.
Upon closer examination, the Flower Fruit has very high potential, especially suitable for people with strong physiques.
Combined with Armament Haki, even the simplest application of his abilities is a nightmare for his enemies.
Unfortunately, Robin doesn't train her agility; she has absolutely no motivation to train now.
"Sigh, maybe I shouldn't have helped. Not only did the guy not appreciate it, but he also complained about it." Robin rolled her eyes at her, annoyed.
"Who said that? I am expressing my gratitude to you with all my heart."
Yelena waved dismissively at Robin, then looked at the corpse on the ground and shook her head slightly.
They fight to the death over a mere touch of the scabbard; I don't know where they learned such rubbish.
"Don't be a pirate in your next life, and definitely don't study to be a samurai. There's no future in it."
She picked up "Hua Zhou" from the ground and sheathed the sword.
With Lorne's death, this battle can be considered revenge for Mr. 11.
