"It's about leaving my subordinates, reuniting with your companions, and experiencing the powerlessness and despair of being weak again in the future."

"Watching the death of my companion, the helplessness of not being able to save it."

"You still have to worship me as your teacher, and become stronger under my teaching."

"It ended up being."

After a pause, Jiang Liu's voice was deep and powerful.

"The number one swordsman in the world!"

Sauron was shocked all over, staring at the man in front of him.

Chapter 148 I want to be number one in the world

The suggestion made by this man is really too tempting.

But at this moment, Sauron was also very worried about his companions. In the chaotic situation of the Chambord Islands, no one knew what happened to other people and whether they were in danger.

"With your strength, if you want to gain a foothold in this world in the future, it is indeed still a bit short."

"Young swordsman."

Rayleigh shook his head lightly.

"Being able to worship under Jiang Liu and learn swordsmanship is definitely the best choice in this world!"

"Because, in addition to titles such as the most powerful general and the unkillable monster, this guy also has the attribute of being a good teacher."

"Its former subordinates were all taught to be the strongest in the world."

Hearing the old man speak, Sauron hesitated even more: "But!"

"Are you worried about your companions?"

"Although I don't know where the bear sent them, but since you are fine, everyone else should be safe."

Riley said with a smile.

"It's really unexpected, that Qi Wuhai is walking with you."

Jiang Liu also spoke at this time: "Batholomew Xiong is a member of the Revolutionary Army."

"Is that so? No wonder that guy will help the Straw Hats."

Rayleigh suddenly realized.

Reminiscent of the appearance of Drago, he finally knew that the appearance of the bear was to send the Straw Hat and others away from the dangerous vortex of the Chambord Islands from the very beginning.

"So you, too, are helping the Straw Hats?"

Squinting his eyes, Raleigh asked again with a smile.

"Karp and I have some old feelings."

Jiang Liu didn't explain too much.

But such words are already considered a good answer, which made Rayleigh laugh again.

"Being under Jiang Liu's hands, after training, he becomes even stronger."

"You can help your companions more in the future."

"Otherwise, with your current strength, you won't be able to go far. The huge sea area of ​​the New World is even more dangerous than it is today."

Lei Li said in a deep voice, with a complex expression on his face, as if recalling something.

In that adventure that is still fresh in my memory, even someone as strong as Roger has faced very complicated situations.

It can be said that without strength, it is impossible to gain a foothold on the road of hegemony.

"Yeah?"

Sauron murmured.

In the end, as if he had made up his mind, he knelt down on his knees and pressed his forehead to the ground.

"Please accept me as an apprentice and teach me swordsmanship!"

Taking a deep breath, Zoro roared.

"I want to become stronger and become number one in the world!"

"Never, ever, ever!"

There were trembling, excitement and tears in the voice.

"I don't want to see my companion anymore, disappearing in front of me!"

Yes, one by one companions, all the companions who had been with him day and night, just disappeared in front of his eyes, like broken bubbles, making people despair, fear, and tremble.

He never wanted to experience that feeling again.

Looking at the man kneeling in front of him, Jiang Liu sighed softly.

"I can feel the raging ambition deep in your heart, and I can also feel your fear and your passionate feelings for your partner."

"So, Roronoa Zoro."

"I will take you as a disciple."

"Teach you to be the world's number one swordsman!"

After the words came out, Sauron trembled all over his body, his forehead pressed to the ground, and he shouted loudly, "Thank you, master!"

"Get up!"

Jiang Liu laughed.

Sauron stood up slowly, still a little agitated.

Apprenticeship is not a joke, it means a lot. And worshiping the man in front of him as a teacher is even more complicated for him.

Because, the title of the world's number one swordsman now hangs on the opponent.

This also means that in the future, only by defeating the opponent can he become number one in the world!

"I know you once practiced in Koshiro's dojo."

When Jiang Liu's words came, Sauron was taken aback.

"Koshiro's swordsmanship, although a bit good, is not enough."

"As your enlightenment, it's not bad, but you can't rely on yourself to comprehend the deeper places."

Sauron listened quietly.

"I will let your swordsmanship go to the next level in the coming time."

Speaking of this, Jiang Liu suddenly smiled.

"The dream of your captain, Monkey D. Luffy, is One Piece, right?"

"Then, it's not bad for you to be the number one swordsman in the world."

Sauron's whole body was shocked, and he nodded heavily: "Yes!"

"That's exactly what I'm aiming for!"

"However, before that, I need to deal with a big event."

"You will live here temporarily."

Jiang Liu smiled again.

"I guided you during the Chambord Islands. During this time, I will fully comprehend the feeling at that time."

Sauron nodded.

He naturally knew that the feeling at that time was enough for him to comprehend for a long time. If you can comprehend it, your strength will be raised to another level in all aspects.

Afterwards, everyone walked towards the island.

Rayleigh was free to leave, but he was clearly interested in being here, too.

"To transform a deserted island into such a base, Jiang Liu, your ambition is not small!"

When he saw the depths of the island, buildings, and people coming and going, he said softly.

"I wanted to do this kind of thing twenty years ago."

Jiang Liu said in a deep voice.

No. 2, who was wearing a black robe, also came out with a cigar hanging at this time.

"Yo, I brought back an acquaintance!"

Crocodile looked at Sauron and said with a faint smile.

Now, when he sees his former opponent, his mood is also unusually calm. His own strength has already risen to a higher level.

When you reach a certain height, looking at your former opponents, there will only be a sense of looking down, without any anger.

Even Crocodile felt a little funny at this time.

"Shichibukai, Crocodile?!"

"You, aren't you?"

When Sauron saw the other party, he was stunned.

"He was originally advancing the city, but he was rescued by me."

Jiang Liu explained with a smile.

"Number 2, he is my disciple, and he will stay with you for the time being."

After a pause, he smiled again.

"Of course, I know that he has some grievances with some of you."

"Being able to attack him is also a kind of training."

"But don't take it too far."

Hearing this, Crocodile was silent, then grinned and exhaled a smoke ring.

"I see."

Kaku beside Rob Lucci also smiled: "Roronoa Zoro, it seems that we will have a second battle soon!"

Enilu tilted his head, stared at Sauron for a while, and finally made a cut.

In his opinion, this guy couldn't even withstand a thunderbolt, and he was not worthy to be his opponent at all.

"Sauron."

"Before I teach you."

"These guys, let's count it as the first step to temper you!"

Jiang Liu smiled again.

"Don't let me down!"

Hearing this, Sauron took a deep breath: "It will definitely not!"

Lei Li listened silently, but he mourned silently for the young swordsman next to him.

Whether it is Crocodile, Enilo, or Rob Lucci, in his perception, they are all very important.

"Death is not death!"

"But beatings are probably indispensable!"

Chapter 149 Time to Go

The big event in the Chambord Islands cannot be hidden after all. The navy did not intend to hide it, so in just two or three days, it has spread all over the world.

"The deputy captain of One Piece Roger, known by the world as Pluto Rayleigh, was defeated in the battle between the Chambord Islands and the former navy admiral Hikoragoe Ryu, and died on the spot."

"It's unimaginable that such a legendary figure has fallen down!"

"But who is Rihu Jiangliu?"

Yes, many people know Raleigh the Pluto. Although Roger, the pirate king, has been dead for twenty years, his reputation can be said to be omniscient and extremely resounding.

Little is known about the navy that defeated him, however. This is strange, how can a man who can defeat Hades Rayleigh be unknown.
