In Xia Le's ears, the sound of his heartbeat like a drum became clearer and clearer.

"Soon?"

"It seems that you need stronger stimulation!"

He smiled with narrowed eyes.

What kind of fighting power does the sun god Nika have? Is the voice and will in the Straw Hat Boy's body the sleeping Joy Boy?

The answer to the question may be revealed soon.

The pillar of lightning between the five fingers of his right hand was extremely dazzling, emitting thousands of lightning flashes.

Suddenly, the lightning column roared and rushed out.

Sanji's pupils contracted and his consciousness entered a revolving lantern.

This meant that he was indeed facing a life-and-death situation at this moment.

Suddenly, a figure came flying at an extremely fast speed, arrived in front of Xia Le in the blink of an eye, and kicked towards the lightning pillar.

"call out!"

Unbelievably, the lightning column was changed in direction by this kick, and fell on the ground not far away, exploding with a loud bang.

Xia Le narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the figure that appeared on the scene.

“It’s quite a happy thing to meet old acquaintances again.”

"But you ruined my good thing."

"Silbaz Rayleigh!!"

Chapter 263 The Will of Eight Hundred Years Ago

He has slightly curly silver hair, a white beard, a pair of glasses on his nose, and a straight scar on his right eye.

The person who appeared in front of Xia Le was the former vice-captain of the Pirate King, Pluto, Silvers Rayleigh.

"I'm really sorry!"

Staring at the tall and strong man in front of him, whose appearance was almost the same as it was twenty years ago, Rayleigh's face was full of solemnity and seriousness.

Time flies, and he has quickly fallen from his peak state. Now his hair and beard are white, he has entered his old age, and in every aspect he is not as good as before.

But the man in front of him couldn't find any trace of the other man, as if he was fixed in his twenties.

"What a monster!"

Rayleigh couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Only those who were familiar with Xia Le or had fought with him in the past could clearly feel the changes in his body.

"Twenty years."

"You're old too, Rayleigh!"

Xia Le said with a sigh.

The scene of their first battle is still vivid in my mind. At that time, Pluto Rayleigh was domineering, had short golden hair, and was very powerful.

“Everyone gets old!”

"But you, it seems, are an exception!"

Rayleigh said calmly.

"So, you suddenly appeared here, are you trying to save the Straw Hat Boys?"

Xia Le asked, raising his eyebrows.

He was not surprised by the other party's sudden appearance.

“We must leave some seeds for the new era!”

Rayleigh took a deep breath and slowly drew out the rapier from his waist.

"You, the navy, can't go too far."

Xia Le narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard that, then turned his head to glance at Luffy, who was sitting there with his head down and making unknown sounds.

The sound of war drums was still beating, but it was obvious that only he could hear it.

No one knows when the will dormant in his body will awaken.

"I'm already quite old."

"Wouldn't it be nice to live in seclusion and enjoy your retirement?"

Xia Le shook his head and sighed.

"Or do you have the confidence to stop me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Ace out from his waist with his right hand.

"Now, it's not twenty years ago when you and I first met!"

Rayleigh's eyes narrowed and his gaze focused on Ace: "You're right!"

"Time flies, the world changes, and even this knife has fallen into your hands!"

He took a deep breath, raised his head, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Perhaps, now you are so powerful that I cannot resist you!"

"But even so, I will still stop you from doing anything reckless next time!"

Xia Le grinned, with a cold look in his eyes.

"Then you must be prepared to die here!"

"Old man!"

Upon hearing this, Rayleigh laughed.

And then in the next second.

"Stab!"

A flash of lightning struck across the sky, and almost instantly, the opponent was already in front.

The brilliant knife light reflected into the eyes, and time and space seemed to be cut apart at this moment, creating layers of ripples.

"So fast!"

Rayleigh's pupils contracted, and he raised the long sword in his hand to block in front of him.

"when!"

The two knives collided with each other, flashing blue arcs of electricity, and the brilliant light illuminated everything around them.

Almost immediately after the fight began, Rayleigh's expression changed drastically.

"What a powerful force!"

"This guy is really stronger!"

The feeling was completely different from twenty years ago. The pressure from the first collision made sweat break out on Rayleigh's forehead.

"Why do you have to be so stubborn, Rayleigh?"

Xia Le smiled lightly.

Unlike his opponent, what he felt in this attack was the opponent's weakness.

Compared to their first fight, the pressure at this moment has completely disappeared.

The roles seemed to be reversed at this moment, and he became the stronger person.

“Old people, though old, are not dead.”

"I still want to be stronger!"

Rayleigh also laughed.

Xia Le shook his head, swung the long sword in his hand, changed the angle and slashed at the opponent again.

Rayleigh raised his knife to meet the attack.

"when!"

A circle of ripples spread out, and the grass on the ground bent down and swept in all directions.

Not far away, two figures were also swinging their swords continuously and colliding rapidly. Feeling the impact from here, their bodies were shocked.

Zoro took the time to turn around, and when he saw the scene here, his expression suddenly changed.

"Curly your eyebrows!"

"Luffy, Robin, Chopper!"

His heart was shaken and he was completely disturbed by this scene.

At this moment, Kuina rushed over with a knife, jumped, and chopped down from above.

Zoro looked up, with three swords blocking in front of him.

"Buzz!"

The air trembled and swept around.

"Don't be distracted in the decisive battle with me!"

"Otherwise, you will definitely lose!"

Kuina said in a deep voice.

Zoro gritted his teeth, the worry in his eyes clear as day.

"As for them, you don't have to worry!"

"Although I don't know the reason, the teacher won't really do anything to them!"

Then, another barely audible voice reached my ears.

"what?"

Zoro looked up in surprise and stared at Kuina, wanting to confirm the matter from her.

Kuina nodded.

"call!"

Only then was Zoro completely relieved. He let out a long breath and a smile appeared on his face.

"You guys are really weird guys!"

"You too, Xia Le too, it's completely confusing and I can't understand what to do."

"But in this case, let's have a good fight!"

Kuina also smiled: "If you can't let go completely, this battle, even if I win, will be no fun at all!"

"That's true!"

Zoro grinned, his eyes filled with a fierce fighting spirit.

Of course, he believed Kuina's words. Xia Le's strange behavior during the two meetings with them was also full of suspicion.

This made him somewhat certain that the other party did not have much ill intentions.

The next second, two pairs of eyes full of fighting spirit looked at each other.

the other side.

Xia Le swung his sword repeatedly, with powerful blows that forced Rayleigh to retreat continuously, his face becoming even more serious and solemn.

Time and aging can change everything.

Even those who were once at the peak of their powers will lose their dominance and physical strength as their bodies gradually age and their condition deteriorates.

Maybe the explosive power won’t be much different, but endurance is definitely a big problem, which is what the saying goes, strong but not for long.

"You seem to have underestimated your current strength, Rayleigh."
