The two of them were so busy that they had to wait for the next battle.

At this time, Yukiko had put down the luggage and Xia Lin's knife on her back, and instead pulled out her own knife and held it.

This time, Xia Lin and Yukiko brought two swords with them. Xia Lin's sword was a little precious, and could barely be considered a good sword. However, there were many good weapons in Wano Country, so Xia Lin's sword was actually just that valuable. As for the sword in Yukiko's hand, it was just an ordinary sword.

Now Yukiko was holding the handle of the sword with both hands, with the blade standing in front of her. Xia Lin saw that her hands were trembling slightly, and her chest was constantly rising and falling. She was probably nervous and scared.

But being scared was nothing. It was normal to feel scared when facing a desperate person for the first time. Xia Lin was not afraid at all because of his own strength. The person who kept approaching was no different from a stray dog ​​on the roadside in his eyes.

When he said that he wanted her to fight the enemy, Xia Lin was satisfied that Yukiko could directly pick up the knife.

It was normal to be afraid, as long as she was not knocked down by fear, that was enough.

As Yukiko's first life-and-death fight, Xia Lin did not have too strict requirements for her victory or defeat.

So much so that he was still thinking about other things.

'This girl has grown up a little in the past six months.' Xia Lin was referring to the two taels of meat on her body.

Half a year ago, there was only a small earth slope in front of her, but now the ups and downs are a little bigger. But she said that before she was bought, she seemed to be flatter than a washboard, at least there were some wrinkles on the washboard.

This was probably because she didn't have enough food before, and she was not old enough. Later, after being bought by Kurozumi Orochi, at least she didn't have to starve, and she gradually improved. But it's not very big now.

Yukiko is only sixteen years old this year, and there is still room for growth.

Just when Xia Lin was thinking about steamed buns and cherries, the blood-stained warrior had already arrived nearby.

Xia Lin raised his eyes and looked at the other person's clothes.

The kimono had not been washed for an unknown period of time, and the blood on the body had turned black, and there were some cut holes on the clothes. Most of them were knife marks left by the enemy.

Although his whole face was covered with messy stubble and dirt, Xia Lin could still estimate that he was probably around thirty years old, but his hairstyle was a Mediterranean. It was estimated that he had a fringe before.

There were many knife marks on the other person's clothes, and there were many old knife wounds on his body, which was enough to prove that he had experienced many battles after he was stranded in this place. Being able to survive was enough to prove his strength.

Xia Lin felt that Yukiko was probably not his opponent, so he was ready to provide support at any time.

"Interesting, people dressed like you are rare in Jiuli." The man held the knife, and his wolf-like eyes swept over Xia Lin and Xue Zi. When he saw Xue Zi, his eyes became even more obscene.

"I am really lucky, a rich young master who doesn't know his own limits, and a delicate woman..." He didn't make a move immediately. Anyway, there was no one else in this area. In his opinion, Xia Lin and the other two were already prey that he had targeted, and there was no way to escape.

He hadn't looked away since he saw Xue Zi, and he kept swallowing saliva in his throat. He had never tasted this level of stuff before he became a fugitive. He didn't expect to encounter such a good thing after becoming a fugitive.

"Hehehe, I am so lucky today, food, women!" He raised the knife excitedly, and the tip of the knife first pointed at Xia Lin, and then slashed at Xue Zi.

"You mean, I am food?"

Xia Lin didn't want to say a word to this kind of person, but he was still moved by his words. Being able to treat him as food so naturally, it must be that they must have eaten other people before.

"Food, what's the problem?" The man tilted his head and sneered, but soon he shook his head hurriedly, "Sorry, sorry, with your looks, even men are in high demand. If you give it to the bandits in Toushan, you should be able to exchange it for a lot of food, right?"

Although he said that he had eaten human flesh because of hunger, he would still prefer to eat normal food.

Moreover, what he said was not wrong. In such a place, women are as popular as food. In this way, not only women, but also good-looking men are also wanted. To be honest, if he hadn't seen Yukiko at first sight, he might have had some thoughts about Xia Lin.

"Shut up!" After hearing what Yukiko said

, could no longer hold back, the tension and fear in his mind had been completely replaced by anger.

"You actually said such dirty words to Lord Xia Lin, I will tear your mouth apart!"

You actually dared to say such words to Lord Xia Lin, the guy in front of him would not be enough to die ten times, and he would not be able to fill the anger in his chest unless he dismembered him.

"You really dare to say that." The man laughed grimly, and then attacked without warning, rushed towards Xue Zi, and slashed down with the blade.

He had no intention of holding back, even if it was a woman he liked, he only treated her as a disposable tool, and if he was lucky, he could use her for a few days. But this was the limit, he didn't plan to keep Xue Zi in captivity and share his remaining little food.

It's better to say that in his plan, after a few days, Xue Zi was tortured to death by him, and she would also be his food.

In this way, he didn't have much concerns about taking action, even if the opponent was a woman, as long as she was holding a knife, he couldn't take it lightly in such a place. There are no doctors here. Even if you are scratched, you may get sick. If the situation is serious, you may die.

Although this ronin warrior attacked by surprise, his actions were clearly captured by Yukiko. Yukiko's observation Haki is stronger than her Armament Haki. When she was training, Orochi had no burden when he threw stones at her blindfolded.

And she was not allowed to use Armament Haki to defend.

Therefore, as soon as the opponent's body moved, Yukiko had already captured the movement, and she even drew her sword first.

"Zheng——"

The two swords collided with each other, and sparks burst out.

Yukiko held the handle of the sword with both hands, and the blade trembled slightly.

"You react quickly." The man smiled, and the unpleasant smell came to his face as soon as he opened his mouth.

Yukiko frowned, bit her teeth hard, and held her breath at the same time, not because of the opponent's bad breath for many years, but because the force of the opponent's blade made her feel very tired.

This ronin doesn't seem to have dual-color Haki, but that doesn't mean Yukiko is stronger than him.

Although Haki can improve a person's strength, some people are born with supernatural powers. It doesn't mean that people with Haki are necessarily stronger than those without Haki.
