Only with the guarantee brought by pure gold, Maud would let Manshirry take the first step.
Maude was not sure what the situation would be like after that.
All in all, I can only put this idea in my heart for the time being.
The temperature in the freezer compartment is very low.
Maude stayed for a while and then left the freezer with Lafayette.
Lafayette went to refuse Rebecca's meeting, and Maude had nothing to do for a while, so she accidentally went to the training ground not far from the castle.
This training ground built according to Mod's request was originally prepared for the companions of the pirate group.
Unexpectedly, the people who used the training ground the most were the Straw Hats who were temporarily stranded on the ship as guests.
So when Mod came to the training ground, he only saw the Straw Hats, but not anyone from the Mod Pirates.
Standing outside the training ground, he suddenly felt helpless.
He raised his eyes to look at the Straw Hats who were showing off their domineering attitude towards the text of history.
Wrap around the domineering spirit, and then attack the indestructible historical text crazily.
This unique training method created by him has not yet benefited everyone in the Mod Pirates, but it has benefited the Straw Hats first.
On the training ground.
The Straw Hats, who were expressing their military colors towards the text of history, did not notice Mod's arrival.
Only Sauron, who was watching Saber meditating on something, was keenly aware of Mod's presence.
He looked at Maud, a trace of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
And hesitation is not his style.
Without thinking for too long, he walked straight towards Maude.
Mod noticed Sauron walking towards here and stayed there waiting for Sauron to come over.
Zoro came to him and said bluntly: "Please discuss with me."
The tone of his words was quite polite, even using the word "please".
This man who desperately wanted to become the world's best swordsman already regarded Mod as a being worthy of respect.
"good."
Maud agreed.
Before putting it aside, he would probably let the shadow clone go play with Zoro.
Now, I need to give Zoro some respect.
"Qiang—"
Maude pulled out the autumn water.
Bailey will be sleeping in his room, so Maud only has the autumn water she carries with her.
When Sauron saw Maud drawing his sword, his eyes were filled with fighting intent.
A few days ago, he watched Cavendish's attempt to commit suicide, and also saw Mode's Overlord and Barrier Breaking, which had been vaguely increasing in power.
From that moment on, he started thinking.
Ordinary sword skills require hard practice day and night, but powerful moves may be even more important.
Although it is meant to imitate...
Or rather imitate.
Zoro had the idea of working on leaping slashes.
With these thoughts in mind, Sauron's fighting spirit increased, and his aura was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, sharp and piercing.
Feeling the aura from Sauron, Mod raised his eyebrows and suddenly remembered the scene when Sauron, who was seriously injured and had not yet recovered, challenged him in the Alabasta palace.
"Time flies so fast..."
Maud thought to herself.
Then at Sauron's signal, he swung his sword.
About twenty seconds or so.
Zoro lay down defeated.
This in itself is a showdown without any suspense.
No matter how many times he comes, the difference is that Zoro lies down earlier or lies down later.
Maude put away her autumn water and looked down at Zoro, who was lying on the ground gasping for air.
It only took about twenty seconds to fight, but this monster-like man was left panting like an ox, which was enough to show how terrifying the suppression force exerted on him by Mod was.
"Are you 'imitating' my hegemony?"
Mod looked at Sauron and asked curiously.
In the fight just now, he noticed Sauron's thoughts in the battle.
"Um… "
Zoro admitted straightforwardly.
In the past few days, he has been thinking about how to expand the power of his offense.
And Mod's astonishingly powerful move of Overlord and Barrier Breaking had been stuck in his mind for the past few days.
Maude really didn't expect Sauron to have such thoughts, and she felt like she had unintentionally led Sauron to the wrong path.
"It's quite clumsy, let's forget it."
There was no politeness at all, and Maud's words pierced Sauron's body like a sharp knife.
Without waiting for Sauron's reaction, Mod continued: "The original 'look' is fine, so don't think about those messy things anymore. You just need 'some time' to grow."
“…”
Zoro was stunned for a moment, then fell silent.
Maude didn't say anything more, just squatted aside and looked at the man in front of her who worked harder than anyone else to become stronger.
In the atmosphere of silence, neither of them spoke.
Zoro slowly straightened his head and looked at the white clouds floating across the sky. He subconsciously raised his hand and felt that the sky he used to look at suddenly became more distant and out of reach, and his eyes suddenly became extremely complicated.
"What a huge gap..."
I don’t know whether he is talking about the distance between Shou and Baiyun, or the strength gap between him and Mod.
Listening to Sauron's soft whisper, Maude was silent for a moment.
Originally he wanted Zoro not to be too anxious, but after thinking about it he still didn't speak.
Because the man beside him didn't need comfort.
"It may take a long time, but... let's refine them into black knives."
Maude said a word and turned to leave.
Sauron was slightly stunned and turned his head to look at Mod's back.
they.
Naturally, it refers to the two famous swords that Maud gave him in Alabasta.
"Refined into a black sword..."
Zoro said to himself.
He knows what it means to make a black knife, and what it means.
Maybe when he successfully refines the black sword, he can stand in the same position as Mod.
"I didn't expect that man to take such good care of you, Green Algae Head."
Sanji came to Zoro's side, holding a newly lit cigarette between his fingers, and looked at Maud who was walking away with some surprise.
Normally at this time, Sauron would retort.
But Zoro was in no mood at this time, and adjusted his rapid breathing without saying a word.
Sanji looked away from Maud and turned to look at Zoro silently.
The desire to become stronger...
Everyone has it.
In the final analysis, the existence of the Mord Pirates put too much pressure on them.
If it is not strong enough, the ship they are traveling on to the new world will be capsized at any time.
"I'm going to prepare some food for you so that you can regain your strength faster."
Sanji turned and left to prepare food for Zoro.
When Zoro heard this, he immediately looked at Sanji with a ghostly look.
He couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity in his heart.
It's as if Sanji suddenly doesn't like beautiful women...
Outrageous.
The Straw Hats, temporarily stranded on the terrifying three-masted ship, have never stopped growing stronger.
Maybe they have noticed...
The man named Baijia D. Mode has grasped the pulse of the times, and is about to create a big stage with his own hands at this turbulent time that will affect the entire world.
By then.
If you are not strong enough, you will not even have the capital to go on stage.
Let alone achieving your dream...
The next day.
A piece of news travels all over the world.
The headline name is still Baijia D. Mode.
The world was shaken once again.
Chapter 410: Gloating over misfortune
The territory of Kaido, the Four Emperors of the New World, known as the strongest creature in the sea, land and air, has been demolished.
How the news leaked is unknown.
In less than half a day, through extensive newspaper reports, the whole world learned about this shocking news.
"Hey, something big happened!!!"
In a certain tavern, a drunk man looked at the newspaper in his hand in shock.
His voice was very loud and attracted everyone's attention at once.
"No matter how big of a deal it is, you can't get here. Why are you making such a fuss?"
People in the tavern looked at the man holding the newspaper with disgust.
But the man just kept scanning the contents of the newspaper without saying another word.
The person who was closer to him came over to take a look curiously, and his eyes suddenly widened.
"This this… "
The man seemed to have seen something incredible and couldn't utter a word.
Seeing the man's strange reaction, everyone in the bar realized that something big might really have happened.
"Hey, what's in the newspaper?"
one of the drinkers shouted to the man holding the newspaper.
However.
