Pirate: It's reasonable for a pirate like me to look for treasure.

The first time the huge black knife and the slender shallow sword clashed, the two collided, and the sound waves of the collision directly overturned the surrounding Click's men. Hawkeye was very close to Lake at this time. Hawkeye could see the strange red hexagram in Lake's eyes, which made him a little distracted. But when masters fight, this moment of distraction is an opportunity. Lake directly used shaving and disappeared on the spot. The next second, a huge black sword energy fell from the sky. Hawkeye did not dare to be careless when seeing this. His eyes were particularly sharp, and a dark green aura wrapped around the black knife. Boom! Boom! Hawkeye swung his sword, and the air around him seemed to be cut open. The space where the night passed seemed to be still, followed by a huge sound.

Lake's sword energy was also blocked by Hawkeye's attack, and the huge roar was accompanied by the waves that suddenly appeared around him.

After this attack, Lake clearly felt the loss of his physical strength. He didn't have so much time to fight a protracted battle with Hawkeye.

Once this time is over, Lake's physical strength can't supply the upper god's virtual vision to copy Hawkeye's moves, and he will be defeated instantly.

So Lake disappeared again and came directly in front of Hawkeye. The two swords began to collide again, and the power and speed of each attack were constantly increasing.

Ding! Ding! Ding...

As the speed of the two people's attacks became faster and faster, ordinary people could no longer see their movements clearly. This scene also deeply shocked Zoro.

At this time, Zeff couldn't help but sigh in surprise when watching the two people fighting in front of him: "That kid actually has such a terrifying strength..."

Then Zeff looked at Lake's companions again, and seeing that they were more worried than surprised, he smiled and said.

"That kid has a group of good companions, and they are not simple. They have all awakened their observation Haki... No wonder they have such an expression."

On the other hand, Sanji, who had not awakened his observation Haki, could no longer keep up with the two people's fighting movements, and his vision began to become blurred.

Boom!

After another powerful blow, the two retreated one after another. Hawkeye felt his trembling hands and said to Lake.

"I see. Although I'm surprised, I have to believe that you are using my swordsmanship, right? So this is what it feels like to fight with me."

Lake smiled and didn't deny it. Instead, he raised the dark shallow sword and said with a confident smile: "Wrong, I'm fighting with a stronger me!"

Then Lake's shallow sword also exuded a dark green terrifying aura, which was still getting stronger. Hawkeye was already in a completely serious state at this time and didn't dare to be careless.

So he attacked Lake directly, and a sword energy that was enough to easily cut off the pirate ship was casually swung out by him and flew towards Lake.

Seeing this, Lake was still not panicked at all. When the sword energy was about to touch him, Lake moved.

Boom!

The shallow sword in his hand was swung in front of him, and Hawkeye's sword energy was instantly dispersed. This was not over yet. Lake took the initiative to attack again and came to Hawkeye.

Seeing this, Hawkeye swung his black knife at Lake without hesitation, but Lake changed his moves at this moment. His body suddenly turned into rubber and bent down, which normal people could not do, to avoid Hawkeye's attack.

Then the shallow strike in his hand burst out with terrifying power and swung the sword from bottom to top. At that moment, the surrounding environment seemed to be mobilized.

Accompanied by a series of dark lightning, Lake's attack directly cut through the sky, and Hawkeye also reacted in an instant, trying his best to resist the power of this attack.

Soon everything returned to calm, Lake's body was directly overloaded, and the exhausted Lake directly spit out a mouthful of blood and almost fell down.

Only by supporting his body with shallow strikes could he barely support himself from falling down, and Hawkeye stood there without knowing what was going on. At this time, no one even dared to breathe.

Suddenly.

Sizzle!

Hawkeye's left shoulder was instantly cracked, a lot of blood sprayed out, and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. It seemed that this attack had injured him seriously.

At this time, Hawkeye half-knelt and covered his wound, but there was no anger on his face, but a happy look.

Luffy also ran over to Lake to ask about his injury, and Nami also hurried forward to help Lake to the boat with a worried look on her face.

Hawkeye soon stood up, and the wound stopped bleeding and slowly walked towards Lake.

Luffy immediately stood in front of Lake.

Although Usopp was afraid, he raised the Dark Destruction tremblingly at this time, and Nami hugged Lake directly, looking like she would not let anyone hurt him.

Lake was deeply moved when he saw this scene, but he knew that Hawkeye was not the kind of person who could not afford to play, so he told his friends not to worry.

Then, with the help of Nami, he stood up and looked at Hawkeye. After a moment, Hawkeye suddenly stretched out his hand and said to Lake.

"You are the most talented person I have ever seen. With your ability, you will be the top of the world in the future. I hope we can be friends in the future."

Hawkeye's actions and remarks made Lake unexpected. It turned out that Hawkeye made friends in this way. I think Shanks and Hawkeye should be the same.

The world's greatest swordsman and the King of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, with such a background, will definitely be very helpful to Lake in the future, so Lake shook hands with Hawkeye without thinking.

Then he smiled and said, "I still have a long way to go, but I accept your recognition. I may need your help in the future."

Hawkeye didn't mind and smiled and said, "Let's go to the Grand Line first, and you will find me later."

In this way, Lake became friends with Hawkeye inexplicably. Although the development of things was beyond Lake's expectations, the result was also quite good.

But what happened next had nothing to do with Lake, because he was really exhausted. Noon had passed, and now every muscle in his body was aching.

Just when he stood up and talked to Hawkeye, his body began to tremble uncontrollably. After Hawkeye left, Lake collapsed directly beside Zoro.

Zoro's eyes have been on Lake since the end of the battle. No one knows what he thinks in his heart. Lake naturally noticed Zoro's eyes.

But at this time, it was obvious that nothing he said was appropriate. He believed in Zoro, and he was really tired, so Lake chose to sleep directly.

He believed that Luffy would handle what happened next. As he was thinking about it, Lake fell asleep. Although the development of things afterwards deviated from the track, it was not much different.
