At the moment of attack, the Blood Blade of Luo Gui turned into a red light and quickly turned into three blades, cutting Mihawk’s neck, side of his heart and the other side of his waist. At the same time, this move also locked his space to dodge, and the only way to dodge was to move back.

But in front of Nogami, no matter how fast he was, he was confident that his sword would be able to touch him.

This is a close-range attack!

Mihawk’s eyes opened slightly, and his arm quickly stabbed forward. He simply did not dodge this blade, but instead pushed the equally long but still huge black blade “Night” forward, straight towards Kuro’s throat.

Buzz!

Kuro’s Demon stopped in front of Mihawk’s neck, the remaining two blood-colored lights faded and disappeared, and the tip of Mihawk’s Black Blade “Night” also stopped at Kuro’s throat.

They were all so close. One could have cut open Mihawk’s neck, and the other could have pierced Kuro’s throat.

Tch…

With a soft sound, a wound appeared on Mihawk’s neck and Kuro’s throat.

“You’re pretty good.” Kuro bared his teeth.

“Because we can’t hide.” Mihawk smiled. “Then we can only do this.”

If Kuro cuts down, Mihawk’s head will be cut off by him, but his own throat will be pierced. In the case of pure swordsmanship, both sides will die together.

Whoosh!

After pausing for a moment, Kuro revealed a sinister smile. He turned his head to the side and directly bypassed the big black blade at his throat. His arm suddenly pressed down and Luo Gui directly rushed towards Mihawk’s head.

Ding!

Mihawk’s hand moved to the side when Kuro made his move and quickly cut in the direction of the falling Luo Gui. There was a crisp sound and the blade of the black blade “Night” collided with the Luo Gui. At the moment of contact, Mihawk’s arm cut forward and the black blade rubbed against the Luo Gui’s blood blade, preparing to cut straight towards Kuro.

Kuro was stunned and took a step back. Luo Gui continued to press down and at the same time, he pulled in and directly pressed down on the black blade Night that was coming over and pushed it to the center, forming a cross.

Crack crack crack…

The blade was trembling slightly. Both sides were holding their own blades and neither of them wanted to take a step back. Under the competition between the two sides, the blade was only trembling.

Kuro’s strength is great, and he was able to block Leda’s attack easily from the beginning. His own strength is not small, and Mihawk’s strength is not as big as Kuro’s, but the big black blade gives him an advantage. After all, Kuro’s blade belongs to the slender blade, and it is not as big as the black blade “Night”.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a moment. They took a step back in tacit understanding and slashed at each other at the same time.

Dang!

The blade crossed in the air and continued to move away. In an instant, Mihawk suddenly turned the blade and the black blade turned into a black light that flashed strangely in the air. It moved down and cut left, cutting towards Kuro’s body.

Whoosh!

This extremely fast blade only passed through Kuro’s body, making him disappear into ripples.

Mihawk’s pupils shrank, and his body quickly took two steps forward. The blade he swung did not stop at this moment, but continued to swing. Like a big wheel, it circled around very fast and directly rotated to the rear.

Clang!!

The blade of the black saber collided with the blood-colored blade coming from behind.

“Your reaction is fast.” Kuro glanced at Mihawk and smiled.

“Same to you,” Mihawk said. “You dodge fast too.”

From the gap that was opened just now, Kuro had a premonition that Mihawk would find an opportunity, so he dodged at the first moment. As he expected, he took advantage of the extremely minute gap to attack, but he didn’t expect that he had already dodged and attacked with “Afterimage Slash”, which could still be blocked, but…

Tch…

There was another soft sound. Mihawk frowned, but the smile on his lips deepened.

In the eyes of the spectators, on Mihawk’s side, his clothes were torn, revealing a small hole.

“Aiya, Mihawk is at a disadvantage.”

Shanks saw this scene and suddenly laughed. “This level of swordsmanship is really exciting.”

“Indeed.” Ben Beckman nodded. “Both sides are very difficult to deal with. With this level of competition, it will probably take a long time.”

Their swordsmanship and even the intensity of their attacks had to be restrained. It was a competition of ‘exquisite’. With their physical strength, they would probably fight for a long time.

A long time ago, when Mihawk was compared to him, it was the same, but halfway through the fight, he had a banquet.

Then his arm was gone and Mihawk lost such interest.

But now, there is a new opponent who can bet on the world’s number one swordsman.

This match will probably take a long time.

Dang!

On the island, the two sides faced each other again and were in a deadlock.

“I noticed that you don’t seem to be angry.”

Kuro held the knife and asked, “Isn’t there a saying that the wound on the back is the shame of a swordsman? If you didn’t dodge in time, that knife would have cut your back.”

“Oh? You agree with that?” Mihawk asked.

“What do you think?” Kuro laughed.

The wound on his back was a disgrace to swordsmen. He could understand and appreciate it, but it was hard to say if he agreed.

In a battle, cutting the back is too normal.

Everyone’s fighting style is different. Kuro is a little good at backstabbing.

There is nothing wrong with relying on speed to attack through blind spots when others can’t react.

“I just appreciate it. The fighting style of a swordsman is different. It is impossible to distinguish who is better. After all, the only thing that can be distinguished is strength, right?” Mihawk said.

“It’s like this, the winner stands and it makes sense, the loser lies down and it makes no sense.”

Kuro swung Mihawk’s big black blade and quickly pulled Luo Gui back to his waist. With his left hand holding the virtual imitation of the scabbard, he directly flashed a blood light and exploded.

“Yuelong!”

Mihawk took a step back and his black saber stood in front of him, blocking the bloody light.

The corners of Kuro’s mouth curled up and his arm suddenly pulled down and he whispered, “Full moon…”

The hook-like bloody light suddenly changed and bypassed Mihawk’s big black blade, drawing a circular symbol directly on Mihawk’s chest.

“It is indeed exquisite.”

In response, Mihawk only said lightly, and then directly flashed forward with Night, which turned into a black light that followed the blood-red light of the full moon to the end of the blood-red light, biting Kuro’s Law Ghost.

Clang!!

The blades met again.

The two knives collided, allowing the battle to continue in this stalemate.
