Chapter 575
Adrian's idea is a good one.
Not to mention that Shanks is a golden leek of excellent quality.
Especially after teaming up with Katakuri to defeat the resurrected Charlotte Lingling, the strength of this golden leek must increase a little, right?
For a person who is already close to reaching the limit of level 100, it will not be a problem to break through level 100 now, right?
After all this time, isn’t the new S-class challenge mission [Red Hair] coming?
After hearing Adrian's words, Shanks knew that he could not escape after all. After taking a deep breath, he neatly drew out the Western sword Griffin from his waist.
"Since Mihawk left, I haven't sparred with a powerful swordsman for a long time!"
Adrian and Shanks exchanged glances, and then quickly left the Redfors one after another, and came directly to Nidhogg's wide island-like dragon head.
The remaining members of the red-haired pirate group were worried about the captain, so they also used their own methods to keep up.
The top of Nidhogg's head.
Looking at the white ghost opposite, Shanks felt a strong fighting spirit in his heart. Before the battle signal started, he took one step ahead and swung his sword directly.
The figure, which was no different from an ordinary person, exploded with unimaginable ultra-high speed and appeared in front of the opponent in the blink of an eye. The Western sword Griffin slashed straight towards the opponent's body.
Adrian raised his right hand unhurriedly, and the power of his soul was released. The crystal-white "Pale Emperor", which was as white as a work of art, quickly condensed into shape, and in an instant blocked the sharp edge of the Western sword Griffin.
clang!
The collision between the supreme sword and the sword instantly erupted into a clearly audible sound of gold and iron.
Along with this, there is battle information popping up on the panel.
——
【Red-haired Shanks】
【Level: LV100】
——
An unexpected level!
A faint look of surprise flashed in Adrian's eyes.
I originally thought that Shanks had broken through level 100 and became one of the top players in the sea, but was he stuck in the level?
Is it... a hundred-level advanced mission of [Disaster]?
But level 100 is fine too!
After all, it’s an A-level challenge mission!
Shanks was not discouraged at all by Adrian's ability to easily receive his own attacks, and he didn't even feel the slightest surprise.
One thing to say.
In Shanks's judgment, Adrian is definitely the most powerful being he has ever encountered since he went to sea!
Golden Lion Shiji and BIGMOM Charlotte Lingling, one after another top players in the ocean, have proven this with their lives.
With the continuous improvement of his strength and his horizons, Shanks even believed that even the original Captain Roger would most likely no longer be Adrian's opponent!
However, this does not mean that I will give up!
Shanks grasped the hilt of the 'Griffin' sword tightly and launched a sword attack like a violent storm. The blade of the Western sword swayed in the air with a dense sword light like a rain curtain.
Facing this attack that was like a gust of wind and rain, Adrian looked calm, like a boundless land, absorbing every drop of the "sword rain" that came.
No matter how terrifying Shanks' attack is, Adrian can still follow it up with ease.
Five minutes passed unconsciously.
The sword fight on the field looked gorgeous and dazzling, but the mesmerizing graceful sword light hid a suffocating sharpness, which oppressed the red-haired pirates who were watching around and felt heavy in their hearts. Incomparable.
"The boss' attack doesn't seem to put any pressure on White Ghost at all..."
"There is still a big gap between the captain's strength and that of White Ghost!"
"I originally thought that Charlotte Lingling was brave enough, but I didn't expect that there was a monster like the White Ghost. It was really scary..."
Through the Griffin in his hand, Shanks can naturally understand the strength gap between him and Adrian.
I originally thought that after going through the sword trial competition, exchanging swordsmanship with Mihawk for more than half a year, and finally successfully killing Charlotte Lingling, I could narrow the distance between me and Adrian.
But I didn’t expect...
Adrian's strength seemed to have improved even more than him.
Breathtakingly powerful!
At this moment, Shanks suddenly noticed that the force transmitted from Griffin had increased by more than one level. He quickly retreated back, continuously reducing the impact force transmitted from the sword.
At the same time, Shanks tried his best to activate his Haki and prepared himself for Adrian's violent counterattack.
But nothing happened.
"Huh?"
Shanks looked across in surprise, only to see Adrian still standing there, frowning slightly, as if he was struggling with something.
‘Have you been playing for five minutes? Why is the task not triggered at all? ’
Adrian called up the panel, and the taskbar was empty without any novel prompts.
Not to mention S-level, not even A-level!
‘Does the panel think that this type of sparring does not constitute a mission? ’
"Hey! Adrian! Do you want to fight again?"
Shanks raised the Griffin in his hand and shouted in this direction.
Adrian raised his eyes to look at the other person, his figure suddenly blurred.
Shanks' pupils shrank, and when he reacted, his opponent was already in front of him, and he could even see his own blurred reflection on the blade of the [Pale Emperor]!
Boom——
At the critical moment, Shanks swung his right arm downwards. Griffin successfully resisted the attack of [The Pale Emperor], but was directly knocked back ten meters away by the incomparable force. His feet were on Ned's side. Two long smoke marks were drawn on Hogg's scales.
‘Are you finally getting serious? Adrian! ’
Shanks, whose right arm was numb, felt his chest rise and fall violently, a red light flashed in his eyes, and he was about to use the "overlord color entanglement" technique he had learned from Charlotte Lingling.
But Adrian suddenly stopped where he was.
Shanks was a little unmotivated by Adrian's repeated "intermission" behavior, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
'Still not triggering the mission...Forget it, just pretend that you are familiar with Shanks' swordsmanship routines! ’
Adrian sighed inwardly, finally got serious, showed about the same strength, and began to fight Shanks.
Shanks' eyes narrowed and he was ready to fight.
The two sides played ping-pong-pong with each other for a long time.
In addition to the red-haired pirates, the giants of Elbaf were also attracted by this fierce sword battle. They surrounded Nidhogg's head and kept cheering for their favorite player.
After half a day.
Adrian concentrated his spiritual pressure and struck out with an extremely powerful flying slash, directly forcing Shanks back.
And Shanks also understood that this was the signal that the battle was over.
"It's so happy! It's so happy!"
Shanks laughed heartily. After knowing Adrian for so long, this was the first time he didn't get beaten up in a fight.
How could this not make him feel comfortable?
If only Adrian could be as gentle as today...
Looking back at the past stories, Shanks almost burst into tears.
Adrian, who still failed to trigger the mission and cut Shanks's leek, felt a little unhappy. Seeing Shanks' silly smile, the sullenness in his heart also dissipated a lot.
“Let’s stop here this time!”
Adrian waved towards Shanks and warned.
"When we meet again next time, remember to raise your strength a little bit more. This level of strength makes people completely uninterested!"
The cheers of the melon-eaters who were cheering enthusiastically around him suddenly stopped.
What?
With this level of strength, you still can’t get into the eyes of White Ghost?
Okay... who made you a white ghost?
"I know."
Shanks scratched his head and showed Straw Hat's trademark silly smile.
Adrian smiled and shook his head, waving his hand to dissipate the pale emperor's sword, "After Elbaf, where are the red-haired pirates planning to go next?"
"Huh?"
Shanks glanced at Adrian belatedly, and finally said honestly.
"Probably wandering in the new world..."
"Would you like to go to Shuixian Star Island together?" Adrian invited.
This time I failed to trigger the challenge mission, maybe I can do it if I take Shanks with me...
"No, no!"
Shanks shook his head wildly, he didn't want to go with Adrian, it would cause a shadow in his life.
"Everyone and I have already been to Shuixianxing Island! There... to be honest, it's quite boring!"
"Quite boring?"
"Well," Shanks nodded, "Compared to Rafdru, there is really nothing interesting about Water Star Island."
Adrian looked at the second-generation Straw Hat in slight surprise, "So, have you been to the Final Island?"
This time it was Shanks' turn to be silent.
When he was young, he was aboard the Roger Pirates, but because Bucky had a fever, he was unable to go to Lovedrew with him.
When he formed a pirate group, he couldn't find the location of Rafdru...
"No..."
