Far from the King's Heights.
Several figures slowly appeared.
It was Koushiro, Zoro, and Kunia who rushed to the King's Heights from the Dressrosa border just after the fierce battle with Fujitora.
Seeing Luffy and Sanji being pressed and beaten by Roger, almost out of breath, Zoro subconsciously held down the sword on his waist, the blade half unsheathed, revealing a piercing edge.
Koushiro frowned and suddenly shouted.
Zoro was stunned for a moment; his feet that were about to step out instantly stopped, and he turned back to stare at his teacher suspiciously.
Koushiro shook his head; his expression gradually changed; he became serious and said solemnly, "Zoro, this is not your battle."
Zoro was in a hurry and said, "Teacher!! But that's my captain—"
Koushiro waved his hand to interrupt him; his eyes gradually looked at the straw hat boy who was beaten by Roger and vomited blood on the high ground of the distant king. A flash of admiration flashed in his heart.
Although this kid Zoro has a bad sense of the road, it's not bad to pick the captain's eyes.
That... straw hat boy, he knew that he was not Roger's opponent, but he still rushed forward with tenacity.
He really don't know whether to call him stupid or to praise him for being brave.
He took his eyes back, looked straight at his disciple, and said slowly, "Zoro, look, do you think your captain, even if you add his... mate, will be that man's opponent?"
Zoro tried his best to suppress the anxiety in his heart. After quietly observing the fierce battle over there for a while, he smiled bitterly: "No, that man is too strong."
In his eyes, the strength of that middle-aged uncle has completely surpassed any opponent he has ever encountered.
Whether it is haki, physique, or swordsmanship.
Or combat experience, they are all perfect and impeccable.
Such a man, not to mention Luffy and Sanji; even the entire Straw Hat Pirates combined is far from enough.
Thinking of this, Zoro's heart couldn't help but feel disappointed and sad.
Originally, he thought that after two years of training and separation, the reunited Straw Hat Pirates were qualified enough to fight any opponent.
Even the four emperors who traverse the new world should have the strength to fight.
But now it seems that the scene in front of him completely shattered the hope in Zoro's heart.
Could it be that, after two years of hard training, they are still frogs in the bottom of the well in this sea?
Koushiro saw Zoro's mood, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He raised his hand and patted the latter's shoulder and said softly, "You don't need to get discouraged so soon; you can see clearly, who is that man?"
Zoro was stunned for a moment, and then he focused his attention on the man who was fighting with Luffy.
After a while, he suddenly took a deep breath and felt his scalp getting numb.
"The Pirate King Roger"
Zoro murmured bitterly.
Koushiro nodded and said, "That's Roger, the Pirate King, so you understand why I won't let you do it."
"It's not just because even if you participate in the war, nothing will change, but because this is a battle that doesn't belong to you."
"A person cannot escape from his own battlefield."
"Because the beliefs and dreams in their bones don't allow it."
Zoro nodded with difficulty.
He knew his teacher was right.
It belongs to " The Pirate King."
It was battle between the legacy and title.
To put it another way, if one day he was going to challenge the throne of the world's number one swordsman and face that man with a black sword, Zoro wouldn't want anyone else to intervene in the battle between the two of them.
It's not about winning or losing; it's just dignity.
Even if it is death, he must complete this battle alone.
Zoro gritted his teeth, his eyes slightly red.
"Look, and soon, your captain will make a choice."
Koushiro murmured softly.
Sure enough, at the moment Koushiro's voice fell, Luffy's roar came from the King's Heights.
"Sanji, get out of the way!!"
"This is my fight alone!!"
After rolling on the ground several times, Luffy with a swollen head and a blue face stood up from the ground shaking his body, his hands barely Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience.
Falling beside him, Sanji, who had several bloody wounds hanging on his body, was taken aback for a moment and hurriedly said, "But—"
"Listen to me; I'm your captain!!"
Luffy roared with red eyes.
He quietly looked at Luffy's blood-stained face, and there was a tenacious light in the latter's eyes.
They were burning, as if the flames were burning.
Sanji sighed inwardly.
He knew that Luffy was serious.
This is his own battle.
Sanji gritted his teeth.
Luffy smiled awkwardly and gave Sanji a thumbs up.
"It turns out that, I believe it, you are the one chosen by Shanks."
At this time, Roger's voice suddenly came.
There was no anger in Roger's voice.
