Chapter 23
Hawkeye's Gift
……
……
After lunch.
Hancock was caught and sent to continue her training.
The four of them stayed in the tavern, relaxing and drinking.
"I originally planned to teach you for two months, but I didn't expect you to become a great swordsman so quickly."
Hawkeye took a sip of his drink and spoke with a slightly hazy look in his eyes.
Even now, he still finds it hard to believe.
The speed at which Zhunyi is growing is too fast, it defies common sense.
How could someone become a sword master on the first day of sword practice and a great sword master on the second day?
This is outrageous!
But the fact that it happened right before his eyes forced Hawkeye to believe it.
"I have nothing more to teach you," Hawkeye said with a sigh. "From now on, you just need to steadily increase your strength."
"When your power matches your realm."
"That's when you'll become famous."
Upon hearing this...
Junichi smiled and raised his glass to Hawkeye in respect: "No matter what, I owe my success to Mr. Mihawk's guidance."
He meant it sincerely.
Without Hawkeye's guidance, he would be a headless fly.
Even with a cheat code, one wouldn't know how to get started or how to master the Flying Slash.
"What did I teach you?" Hawkeye chuckled and shook his head, feeling unworthy of such gratitude.
Therefore, we directly changed the subject.
Let's not talk about this anymore.
Hawkeye turned to look at Peony beside him and said, "You've completed the course ahead of schedule. I'm going to use the original teaching time to give you a gift instead."
"A gift?" Junichi asked, slightly surprised.
Peony and Rayleigh, however, revealed subtle expressions.
I have this feeling.
Have you said something similar before?
"That's right, a pirate crew called the Ten Thieves Rat." Hawkeye nodded and said, "I'm here because I'm chasing them."
"Their captain has a large, sharp sword called Ghost Eye."
"But the captain is not a swordsman; he has insulted this sword."
"I originally planned to take back 'Ghost Eye' and find it a suitable owner, but now... I think you can give it a try."
As Hawkeye spoke, he looked at Peony beside him.
Upon seeing this.
Peony nodded slightly and said, "Mihawk paid me to gather information on the Ten Thieves Rat Pirates, and I have obtained detailed information."
As she spoke, she turned and walked behind the bar, pulling open a small drawer.
He took a brown paper bag out of the drawer.
Peony handed the bag to Junichi and said, "It contains detailed information about the Ten Thieves Rat Pirates. There are two people worth noting."
"Captain Cooper, wielding the Great Sword Demon Eye, has a bounty of 120 million Berries."
"First Mate Dustin, bounty of 78 million Berries."
I took the bag.
Junichi's expression became more serious.
One has a bounty of 120 million, and the other has a bounty of 78 million; they're no ordinary people.
Although bounty money does not fully represent strength.
But to be able to accumulate a bounty of over 100 million, one's strength is definitely not weak.
The weaklings were already annihilated by the navy.
"One hundred million Berries is the dividing line," Rayleigh interjected.
Junichi looked up at him: "The watershed?"
"That's right."
Rayleigh nodded and explained, "A bounty of 100 million Berries is already considered a 'monster' by ordinary people."
"Even if you don't know how to cut iron, don't know Haki, and don't have a Devil Fruit."
"Their own strength is enough to forcibly shatter steel."
These words.
This made Zhunyi seem to be deep in thought.
"Mr. Rayleigh is right," Hawkeye added from the side. "Captain Cooper has a Greatsword; ordinary weapons can't withstand the blows of a Greatsword."
"Although your realm is higher, his strength is greater than yours, and his weapon is better."
"Your chances of winning are probably 60/40, and yours is 60/40."
He paused for a moment.
Hawkeye added, "Of course, I'm not saying you absolutely have to deal with this pirate crew."
"I just felt that he was a suitable opponent for you to test your skills."
"Besides, how can a great swordsman not have a great sword?"
Hawkeye said, glancing at Junichi's ninja sword.
That's Kimura's standard ninja sword.
It's not a good product; it's just an ordinary consumable.
"Let me check the intelligence first."
After a moment's thought, Zhunyi opened the leather bag.
He was already tempted.
The rarity of Great Swords is almost comparable to that of Devil Fruits.
An opportunity to acquire a great sword is right in front of us, how can we miss it?
"Take your time and look at it," Hawkeye said.
Rayleigh and Peony shared the same attitude.
A single great sword is enough to summon a master swordsman.
But it wasn't said that you absolutely had to go.
Although a near-first-level swordsman is a great swordsman, he lacks too much physical strength.
All of them are mismatched with power.
There is some risk involved in using this product, Cuboplatin.
……
Splash!
Splash!
Junichi quickly flipped through the intelligence, gradually getting a sense of what was going on.
This is a pirate crew where none of the members possess Devil Fruits or special abilities; they rely solely on their physical strength to force their way to the Grand Line.
Of course, the 100 million bounty on Cooper largely relied on the Great Sharp Blade Ghost Eye.
With the help of a great sword.
Most conventional weapons would be cut in half and rendered useless.
"But that's all."
Junichi thought to himself, "This is Cooper's limit. He doesn't understand swordsmanship, so he can't unleash the true power of the Great Grade Swords."
"I've coated myself with Armament Haki; that's enough to resist."
As for the difference in strength...
Junichi chuckled to himself.
He's not just a swordsman; he has another identity—a ninja!
He can also use ninjutsu!
"When I first arrived here, I used ninjutsu to take down a ship full of pirates," Junichi thought to himself.
"I haven't stopped training my ninjutsu during this time."
"I've mastered both Fire Release and Illusion Technique!"
Thinking about this...
The system panel will be brought up immediately.
bass!

In terms of ninjutsu, all of them have been upgraded from 'proficient' to 'master' level.
This is the result of Zhunyi's continuous efforts.
His physical fitness improved, his stamina increased, and his spirits became more vibrant.
Abundant physical and mental energy brings about a huge increase in chakra levels!
In addition, the awakening of the Sharingan and the Uchiha bloodline limit subtly amplified the Fire Release and Yin Release!
The two are superimposed.
Let Junichi level up all his skills to the 'Mastery' level.
