Chapter 226 Asura boy is promoted to a great swordsman
"Hai Yuan·Water Dragon Yin!"
The scarlet Seven-Star Sword instantly turned into blue, and a blue Abyssal Dragon flew out with the sword.
One side's sword intent was violently shattered, and the other's sword intent was like the abyss of the sea. The battle between the two great swordsmen attracted the attention of countless swordsmen.
The audience's cheers were so intense that they couldn't even catch their figures, but the huge aftermath of each collision between the two swords made them excited.
The surrounding walls are made of the hardest iron ore, materials that can greatly absorb impact, and mixed with seastone. Even after they were built, Yumaz was asked to use his The fusion fruit ability has been strengthened again.
It can be said that as long as you don't destroy it intentionally and just block the aftermath of the great swordsman's battle, there is no problem at all.
Li Yuan did not rush to defeat his opponent, but continued to absorb the nutrients of the opponent's sword intent during the battle to improve himself.
Jiyuan Guoyi also knew what Li Yuan was thinking, and he was doing the same thing.
Li Yuan, such a powerful swordsman, suppressed his strength to fight with him. This was also a great opportunity for him.
After all, this is a very rare opportunity to observe the swordsmanship of the world's greatest swordsman so closely. If you can seize it, then participating in the kendo competition this time will be completely worth it!
"I've already seen your sword intent, now I'll let you see the real Haiyuan sword intent!"
After fighting with Jiyuan Guoyi for an hour, he had almost figured out the opponent's sword intent.
"Hai Yuan·Hai Yuan Lin Tian!"
When he forced Jiyuan Guoyi back, the Haiyuan Sword Intent on Li Yuan was once again raised to an extreme. The Haiyuan Sword Intention hanging high above his head was like an inverted sea.
Jiyuan Guoyi felt like he was carrying the entire ocean on his back, and even his legs began to bend.
"I am Jiyuan Kunichi!"
Being crushed by pure sword intent was not his style after his successor, Kuniichi!
"Demon Slayer!"
Against the boundless pressure, Jiyuan Guoyi poured all his strength into this sword.
Even if the enemy is invincible, he will still move forward bravely and use all his strength to strike the ultimate blow. This is Jiyuan Guoyi's strongest belief at this moment!
The Sword Intention of the Abyss suspended in the sky suddenly fell down. The Jiyuan Kunichi below was like a brave man challenging the sky, but the sea that covered the sky and the sun easily crushed the Sword Intent of Jiyuan Kunichi.
The two rushed towards each other at the same time, passing each other in an instant.
Li Yuan calmly sheathed his sword and turned around, while Jiyuan Guoyi did the same, except that there was a blood-red sword mark on his neck.
"I lost. Thank you, Lord Li Yuan, for showing mercy."
Ji Yuanguo touched the blood on his neck and expressed gratitude.
If Li Yuan hadn't stopped just now, his head would have been chopped off directly.
"Your Destruction Sword Intention is very good, but it is not pure enough."
Li Yuan smiled and pointed out his shortcomings, and then left the field.
Although killing is not prohibited in kendo competitions, Li Yuan will not kill his opponent without any reason.
"Is this a battle between great swordsmen? It's too strong!!"
After referee Li Yuan announced the results of the two, fierce cheers erupted outside the stadium!
"Li Yuan, you are so powerful. Even such a great swordsman was defeated by you!"
After Li Yuan returned to the box, Tian Yueshi immediately ran over with a look of admiration on his face.
"Of course. I didn't even use one-third of my strength just now. I'm destined to be the first in this kendo competition."
Li Yuan touched Tianyueshi's hair with some confidence.
"Yeah, I believe you, if it's you, you can definitely do it!"
Tian Yue Shi nodded with a blushing face.
In the showdown of the top 64, Ashura Doji faced off against fellow swordsman Kozaburo!
Both of them are at the pinnacle of swordsmanship, and they are only one step away from becoming a great swordsman.
"Your swordsmanship is the swordsmanship of the Shigetsuki family of Wano Country!"
During the fierce battle between the two, Ashura Doji recognized Kozaburo's swordsmanship.
"That was once. Now I have nothing to do with the Shuangyue family. This is my own swordsmanship!"
Kozaburo was not surprised that Ashura Boy could recognize his swordsmanship, because as far as he knew, Ashura Boy himself was from Wano Country.
"Hahahaha, I said something wrong, then let me teach you your swordsmanship!"
The Shura aura on the Asura boy suddenly exploded, and the blood shadow of Shura emerged behind him!
"Shura Blood Slash!"
He has learned various swordsmanship from Wano, learned swordsmanship from Li Yuan, and learned swordsmanship from many sects in the sea. Now he wants to integrate all these swordsmanship into his own Shura swordsmanship!
"Flying Dragon Slash!"
Kozaburo held the Wado Ichimonji and rushed forward to meet Ashura Doji's slashing attack!
Although the battle between the two was not as fierce as the great swordsman's battle, it was still very exciting.
They all devoted themselves to the battle, displaying all the swordsmanship they had learned throughout their lives.
A hint of sword intent lingers between the two, which is a sign that they are about to become a great swordsman!
The two of them could be said to be equally matched, with no difference between them, so much so that just one battle lasted for three days and three nights without a winner.
This situation made more people pay attention to their battle. After all, in the top 64 showdown, except for theirs, everyone else had ended their battle a day ago.
"It seems that the opportunity for Asura Boy's breakthrough has arrived!"
Li Yuan looked at Asura Boy in the arena and said happily. Ashura Boy's talent is very good. Although his physical talent is not as good as Kozuki Oden's, the ancient animal type King Crocodile has made up for this.
In terms of swordsmanship, Asura Boy is slightly worse than Kozuki Oden, but Li Yuan believes that if Asura Boy maintains this firm belief, he will have no problem surpassing Kozuki Oden in the original work in the future!
"Hahahaha, Kozaburo, you are a very good opponent, let's show off!"
Even though Ashura Boy's physical strength is too much, his will has reached its peak at this moment and is about to enter a new realm.
"I wish I could have it!"
The same is true for Kozaburo at this time, the prototype of the sword intention has already appeared on the Wado Ichimonji sword body!
"One-sword Shura!"
The blood shadow of Shura behind Asura Boy suddenly disappeared, completely integrated into the body of the Earth-Destroying Sword, and turned into his sword intention, Shura Sword Intent!
"breaking Dawn!!"
The sword intent burst out in Kozaburo's eyes. It was a brilliant sword intent that broke through the endless night and allowed people to witness the glorious dawn!
At this moment, both Ashura Doji and Kozaburo broke through from the realm of swordsman to great swordsman, comprehended their own sword intent, and embarked on a path of swordsmanship that no one had ever walked before!
Shura represents endless killing and darkness.
And Kozaburo's sword intention is like supreme brilliance, a representative of light. When the two great swordsmen wielded their swords, half of the arena was like being plunged into hell, and half of the arena was like being in heaven. This was a showdown between darkness and light!
"Bang!!!"
With a shattering sound, the light and darkness shattered at the same time, leaving only Asura Boy standing and Kozaburo lying on the ground.
Even though Asura Boy didn't use the power of the Devil Fruit, his body was much stronger than Kozaburo's. Under the same damage, Asura Boy could withstand the same damage, but Kozaburo could not.
"Kozaburo, you are very strong. In the way of swordsmanship, we have no winner."
Asura boy put away the Earth Sword, stepped forward, bent down and stretched out his hand to Kozaburo.
"In kendo, we don't win or lose, but you won this match. I hope you can keep winning!"
Kozaburo took Asura Doji's hand and stood up.
He knew that if the competition had not limited Asura Doji's strength, he would have lost long ago, because Asura Doji is a Devil Fruit user.
"Great Swordsman, they have both been promoted to Great Swordsman!"
There are many swordsmen present, and what they desire most is to be promoted to great swordsman. Now two swordsmen have passed a competition, and they have both been promoted to great swordsman. This is simply what all swordsmen dream of!
This actually appeared before their eyes. Unfortunately, the two protagonists were not themselves!
"Gu la la la la, Li Yuan, congratulations, it seems that the Wuji Pirates will have one more core cadre in the future!"
Whitebeard saw this scene and congratulated Li Yuan.
At the same time, he unconsciously looked at the children around him. These children were too young and their talents were not top-notch. They still had a long way to go before they could reach the level of Asura Boy.
"Hahahahaha, those are all Asura Boy's own efforts and talents. I just provided him with a platform."
Li Yuan smiled.
Over the years, in order to improve the overall strength of the Wuji Pirates, he has made rigorous various systematic training plans, just like the navy's elite training camp, or even better than those elite training camp systems!
For example, gravity training, sea floor stone training, battle training, sword training, devil fruit training, knowledge color and armed color Haki training, etc.
For those people Li Yuan was optimistic about, he also conducted targeted training in order to enable them to grow better and faster.
After a day's rest after the top 64 games, the top 32 games began immediately.
In this round of competition, Asura Boy was unfortunate enough to encounter Rayleigh and was eventually eliminated.
Li Yuan's luck was not so good this time. He did not meet a great swordsman, but a relatively strong swordsman, and he was promoted instantly.
When the top 16 showdown came, John met the Red Earl. There was no doubt that he was easily eliminated by the Red Earl.
Roberts, the teacher of Hawkeye Mihawk, met Li Yuan in the top 16 duel. He was stronger than the previous successor Guoyi, but he was easily carried away by Li Yuan with the Infinite Sword Intent. .
So the latest top eight are out: Li Yuan, Red Earl, Golden Lion, Roger, Lei Li, Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, and Yuan Ryuzai Shigekuni!
Among the top eight, seven are famous swordsmen in the New World, and the other one is also a sword master from the New World.
Although the New World is smaller than any other sea area in the Four Seas, it is the most chaotic, has the most fighting, and is also the easiest to breed strong people.
The real strong men all rise from the struggle.
Those great swordsmen from all over the world may have the same level of swordsmanship as these great pirates, but their domineering power is too weak, their bodies are weak, and their fighting intuition is not strong. They are easily defeated when fighting with strong men of the same level.
This is why the world's population is so large, the sea area is so large, and why truly strong people are always born in the new world.
There are also strong men in the navy, but which of those strong men are not born from endless battles and killings?
"Welcome the top eight players to the stage to draw lots!"
After the beautiful host's voice sounded, the eight people from Li Yuan came to the lottery platform.
"Hahahaha, I will be the first to draw lots this time."
Roger was the first to reach the front, stretched out his hand and took out a No. 8 ball.
"Jie hahahaha, Roger, I told you that you are not lucky. You always get the last number."
After the golden lion mocked Roger mercilessly, he reached out and directly took out a No. 2 ball.
"It's not just bad luck, it's bad luck."
Li Yuan also stepped forward and drew a No. 7 ball.
"Jie hahahaha, Li Yuan, it seems that we can finally fight again!"
Golden Lion laughed loudly after seeing the number in Li Yuan's hand.
He had long wanted to fight Li Yuan. Although he couldn't use the power of the Devil Fruit, he still wanted to see how far Li Yuan's strength was.
Nowadays, the Sky Pirates and the Wuji Pirates have the largest territory in the New World. If the Sky Pirates want to expand, annexing the Wuji Pirates is the fastest way.
"Golden Lion, without the ability of Piaopiao Fruit, you are no match for me."
Li Yuan smiled.
Just kidding, he doesn't know how far his strength has reached now. He only knows that he is not afraid of anyone except the unfathomable King of the World, Im.
Soon, the top eight completely determined their opponents.
Li Yuan VS Golden Lion, Roger VS Wang Zhi, Red Earl VS Rayleigh, Silver Ax VS Genryusai Shigekuni.
At this moment, swordsmen all over the world are paying attention to the duel between the top eight. Those who can reach the top eight are the most powerful swordsmen in the world today. Everyone is a famous existence.
"Many of those swordsmen are not pirates. Can our navy recruit them?"
The Navy Headquarters Gang Gu Kong and many generals were watching the live broadcast.
Of course he was not talking about the top eight swordsmen today, but the swordsmen and great swordsmen who had reached the top 64 before.
Many of these are not pirates, but come from the Four Seas and the Grand Waterway.
"Marshal, I just checked their information. Many of them are people who have joined the country, and some are anonymous people."
"I'm afraid it's difficult to recruit those swordsmen and great swordsmen in the franchise country. They are the backbone of the franchise country, and the franchise country will not let them go."
"Those incognito people might be able to give it a try. Maybe they can agree to join the navy."
Lieutenant General He handed over a stack of information and said.
