One Piece: The Long Road

.

Simon's face changed slightly, not because of the injury, but because he was dissatisfied with his fighting mentality. He would get irritated because he couldn't cut his opponent. Sure enough, he was not a swordsman. When he touched his ribs, Simon was able to use his abilities. , the broken ribs suddenly recovered quickly.

"Hmph." Simon looked at Luffy who was panting, his expression still cold, and he didn't have any reaction because of the broken rib. It seemed that the broken rib was not his own, and he didn't care.

"Simon, you are very strong!" Luffy's breath gradually decreased, and he praised from the bottom of his heart.

"What do you want to say?" Simon said coldly.

"Hehe." Luffy smiled, as if he didn't hear the indifference in those words, his eyes began to change, "I'm very happy to be able to fight with you, Simon."

Simon's icy expression paused, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then his eyelids suddenly opened again. Without answering, he waved his epee backwards and charged directly towards Luffy.

"Hehe!" Luffy's eyes were full of fighting intent, and he also rushed towards Simon.

"I don't believe that I can't cut you!" Simon's eyes narrowed, staring closely at Luffy who was walking towards him, silently calculating the distance between them.

It's now!

When Luffy hadn't entered his offensive range, Simon raised his eyes, and the epee extending backwards slanted forward and picked it up. If neither side moved at this time, the epee would definitely not touch it. When they arrived at Luffy, they were both rushing towards both sides. It was precisely because of their respective steps forward that the epee, which could not touch Luffy's body, could just hit Luffy when swung out. .

Luffy was attentive and reacted when Simon swung his sword. At this time, he gave up a little defensive mentality, no longer blindly dodging, but attacked.

Luffy suddenly stopped the momentum of running forward and took a slight step back very quickly. At the same time, the oblique epee sharply cut an oblique wound in front of Luffy's body, and blood suddenly spurted out. Scattered out, at this time, Luffy raised his arms with strength, and when Simon exhausted his strength, he snorted coldly, his arms turned into star-like punches like machine guns, and slammed into Simon's abdomen violently.

After successfully slashing to Luffy, Simon's strength was exhausted, and because of the too much upward movement, he could not prevent Luffy's counterattack at all.

After Luffy's fist and Simon's abdomen were in close contact, there was an incessant sound of physical collision, and a huge force kept coming towards his abdomen. Simon couldn't make any movements at all, as if he was stuck by the force. Going up to normal, with Luffy's attack, he kept going backwards, and gradually, under the circumstances of such a violent attack, the body gradually began to be unable to bear it.

Simon frowned obscurely, blood kept overflowing from the corners of his mouth, relying on the ability to restore the fruit, such a strong offensive did not make the body have the instinct to protect, the consciousness is still very clear, but under such circumstances, pain can also be It was clearly accepted that Rao was Simon, who had a very unusual ability to resist attacks. Under such frequent and rapid offensives, he could not help but feel uncomfortable.

"Ah!" Luffy, who didn't know how many punches he threw, finally exhausted his strength, and his violent attack suddenly vented. After a roar, he put away his move, and Simon stepped back for a long distance before stopping. At this time His body was not lightly injured, and his feet were weak for a while, and he could not help but fall backwards.

"Hu, hu." Luffy bent down and stared at Simon, who fell on the ground, gasping for breath. At this time, he had a feeling that Simon would not fall down so easily.

The Straw Hats watching from a distance couldn't react. At first, because Luffy was facing away from them, they only saw Luffy being slashed with a heavy sword, and then spurting blood red. It's just a turn of events, and in the blink of an eye, Luffy knocked down Simon with his fists.

.

"You won!" Usopp was stunned for a while, looking at him so stupidly.

"It should be, how could he not fall after being hit with so many punches by Luffy." Zoro replied casually, it would be strange if he was punched so many times by Luffy.

Seeing that the battle was over, a group of people couldn't help but walk towards Luffy, but Luffy noticed that his partner was coming towards him, and suddenly shouted: "Don't come! The battle is not over yet."

Luffy's words suddenly made Usopp and others stupid.

Fully endured by Luffy's so many fists, Simon, who was lying on the ground, felt a burning pain in his abdomen, and he exercised his ability, and the injury was recovering as soon as possible.

In just a while, relying on his control of the fruit's ability, the injury that was enough to make him fall into a coma recovered like this.

After recovering from the injury, Simon slowly stood up, tightened the heavy sword that never left his hand, looked at Luffy who was gasping for breath, and said, "Is this your full strength?"

Seeing that Simon didn't seem to be injured, Luffy was dumbfounded and could not speak. Although he felt that Simon couldn't fall down, he didn't expect that Simon would be fine under his full blow. , In the past, as long as the person who was hit by his own move, there was no one who didn't fall down. In a trance, Luffy's mind flashed the smoke man he met in Rogge Town, but the feeling from the fist just now was real. What's going on?

Not to mention Luffy, the person involved, Usopp and the others were dumbfounded when they saw Simon standing up unscathed, including Zoro and others, the same term jumped up in their hearts.

monster!

Aware of the surprised eyes of Usopp and the others, Simon glanced slightly and ignored it, looking directly at the surprised Luffy.

After a long time, Luffy came to his senses and praised with a smile: "Simon, you are so strong!"

Without responding to Luffy, Simon glanced at the long wound on Luffy's chest, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly, the wound was not deep, the sword just didn't cause much damage to Luffy, in Simon's vision In the sword just now, either the opponent just dodged, or he was cut by himself, and he was seriously injured, but Luffy gave himself a heavy blow at the price of minor injuries, if he had the ability to restore the fruit. , fell into a coma for a long time, hum, this is the real opponent, only by fighting against people with such strength can one's strength have room for improvement.

"Then, let's continue." Simon's eyes were full of fighting intent, and he raised his sword and said coldly.

"Stop fighting." As if he didn't see the fighting intent in Simon's eyes, Luffy suddenly stretched and said casually.

Simon was stunned when he heard it, "Why don't you fight?"

Luffy frowned, and looked like he was thinking hard. After a while, he replied, "Because I really can't find a reason to fight you, Simon."

"Reason?" Simon sneered and said solemnly: "You are a pirate, I am a navy, isn't this reason enough?"

"Indeed." Luffy tilted his head and said very distressedly: "But I still can't find a reason to fight you."

"Also, I still have one important thing to do." Having said this, Luffy's expression became serious.

"What's important?" Simon looked at Luffy suspiciously.

"I'm going to beat up Crocodile for Vivi!" Luffy nodded and waved his fist vigorously.

"Vivi, Crocodile." Hearing Luffy's words, Simon was secretly startled, looked at Luffy calmly, and said lightly: "What do you think is none of my business, if you don't fight If there is a reason, I will help you find one."

"Ah." Luffy disturbed his head in distress, and said, "Why don't I continue after I beat Fey Crocodile?"

"Who do you think Crocodile is?" When the name was mentioned, Simon's face was not very good-looking.

When he was about to come to Alabasta, Smog also talked a little about the Qiwuhai, because in this kingdom of sand, there is such a Qiwuhai.

The pirates recognized by the government, what a joke, Simon immediately became angry when he heard it, but Smog's next sentence was like a pot of cold water, and the anger could not come out at all.

Strength, because Qiwuhai has enough strength to be recognized by the government.

Simon's face was gloomy, "That's one of the Seven Martial Seas under the King."

"So what!" Luffy said indifferently: "Anyway, I just want to beat him up, it's that simple."

"You..." Simon's eyes lifted slightly, the previously unproven conjecture can now be confirmed.

The turmoil in Alabasta is absolutely inseparable from Crocodile, but compared to these, Simon is more concerned about this battle. At this time, he needs a result.

"No matter what, I have to make a break." Simon closed his eyes and said lightly.

Listening to these inexplicable words, Luffy rarely understood. Looking at Simon, Luffy felt a little dull in his heart. He couldn't understand, what kind of person was this person who once saved his life. I thought that Simon was a very good person, but it seems that some changes have taken place now, and it is different. Maybe that sword full of killing intent is real.

"Snold Simon." Luffy called out Simon's full name indifferently.

Hearing the plain tone, Simon suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Luffy with an expressionless face, speechless.

This call seemed to be something I didn't want to hear, and suddenly, I felt a little bored in my heart.

"Maybe, we can't be friends anymore." Luffy said with a blank face, "I still... I prefer you who I met in Rogge Town."

Simon was stunned. From the beginning to the end, he didn't really realize the true thoughts in his heart. At this time, when he heard Luffy's words, all kinds of different feelings in his heart were suddenly entangled. At this moment, Simon's Heart is very confused, lips clenched, speechless.

Bowing his head to hide his confused look, Simon said stubbornly, "How could the navy and the pirates be friends."

In a trance, he thought of Siby and Uncle Kunke, and his confused and chaotic heart began to settle down.

"Pirates are all sinful people. They do everything they can to burn, kill, loot, and loot. I once swore that I would kill all the pirates in this world." Thinking of the blood-red image in his memory, he was murderous. It gradually covered Simon Junyi's face, and then turned into a substance that filled his body.

This terrifying murderous aura made Sauron's face change, and everyone around him clearly noticed this murderous aura. .

Only Luffy remained expressionless, and when he heard what Simon said, he was speechless and right.

Pirates... are a group of people with dreams, not the sinful people who burn, kill and plunder. Luffy looked at Simon and retorted silently in his heart. He didn't want to say it directly, because he knew that this fact was only Simon himself. Only by experiencing it personally can it truly enter Simon's heart.

"It's just..." The murderous aura gradually dissipated, and Simon's expression darkened, "You are different..."

I don't want to believe it, I want to deny it.

It's a fact that Luffy is a pirate, but he didn't do what a sinner should do~www.readwn.com~ and now...maybe to save a country.

I'm really useless...

The heavy sword in Simon's hand fell slowly and gently touched the ground.

"Let's go." Luffy lowered his head slightly, walked forward, and said in a low tone, this was what he said to his partner.

Zoro and his party watched all of this in silence. They couldn't understand the result, but they sensed the lowness in Luffy's heart, and they all walked behind Luffy in silence.

During the walk, Luffy did not put his eyes on Simon, and passed Simon one step at a time. Luffy, who has always been so optimistic, felt sad when he passed by.

It was just a chance encounter, it just saved a life, and it was just that I simply regarded Simon as a friend.

It's just that the two roads that go in opposite directions will only be farther apart.

Sometimes, friendship does not need to be accumulated for a long time, and at the same time, it does not need to be too cumbersome to cut off this connection.

Luffy and his party left, got on the Merry and left the place, Simon was still in that position, and just stood there.

After an unknown amount of time, when the number of pedestrians on the street began to increase, Simon moved, hung the epee slowly behind him, and walked forward silently. Just now, he seemed to have lost an important thing.

Maybe it's because I don't belong to this world, and what I couldn't get in my previous life, I still can't get it in this world.

In the past life, when it was still a scavenger hunt, have you ever hoped for it?

Three years of experience, three years, and three years of personal experience seem to have made myself forget the thoughts of the past life, the practices of the past life, and the character of the past life.

"Have you beaten Kroccodahl..." Simon looked sad.
