Shin watched Hancock and Mihawk clash without any intention of intervening. Letting Hancock fight against a powerful opponent would be a great benefit to her.
"Olvia, don't worry. Big Mom can't escape. Even if she did, I could just drag her back."
Shin said to Olvia with an unconcerned expression.
Besides, would Big Mom really run away? That was absolutely impossible—not for the sake of so empty honor. First and foremost, she would never abandon her vast fortune, so there was no need to worry.
Dealing with Big Mom after Mihawk wouldn't be too late.
————
"To co and challenge alone, this Mihawk has a lot of guts." Shin said with a smile, quite appreciating Mihawk's courage.
"He's just reckless. In my opinion, it's a brainless move."
Kalifa looked at Mihawk with disdain. In her eyes, Mihawk's challenge was as foolish as her own undercover mission. Of course, her mission wasn't her decision—it was the foolish Five Elders who had decided, and she had no choice but to obey.
But Mihawk coming here on his own? That was just plain stupid in her eyes. If you lost, you might die.
And if you won? That option didn't even exist!
Kalifa couldn't imagine anyone stronger than Shin.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Hancock once again sent Mihawk flying.
Mihawk's brow furrowed. His opponent was a woman—she should be at a disadvantage in terms of strength.
How was she so powerful?
Well, so people were just born with exceptional talent—like Big Mom—who could beat up giants at the age of five. Of course, Hancock didn't have such innate strength, but she had Shin's help.
Shin had helped her obtain the Perfect Sage Body, so her strength had increased dramatically. In terms of strength, she might not be far superior to Mihawk, but she was certainly not weaker.
""
The swift, gale-like slash forced Mihawk to defend desperately, unable to even think of a counterattack.
He had co to challenge Shin Uzumaki, only to be overwheld by a woman before even reaching him—it was a bit humiliating. Even though Mihawk's expression stayed calm, he definitely wasn't happy about it.
————
"This is bad..."
Mihawk suddenly felt a sense of danger. He absolutely couldn't block this attack. He imdiately dodged it.
As the attack missed, it struck Mihawk's small boat, instantly petrifying it. Don't forget, Hancock wasn't just a swordsman—she also had the Love-Love Fruit.
In a real fight, Mihawk was no match for Hancock. After all, if he were to fight Kizaru, he would definitely be the one to be defeated.
At this mont, Mihawk looked at Hancock with extre caution. The power of a Devil Fruit was the most dangerous. Even if you were stronger than your opponent, you could still lose, let alone if you were weaker.
After their clash, Mihawk knew his strength fell short of Hancock's. If he couldn't even match her, how could he hope to rival Shin Uzumaki? So, In his heart, he had already abandoned the challenge.
"You're right. I'm not worthy of the title of World's Strongest Swordsman right now."
Mihawk said, admitting it frankly.
In fact, Mihawk was an extrely proud person. It was hard for him to admit defeat..
If Hancock had suppressed him with other powers, Mihawk wouldn't have thought his swordsmanship was inferior, but she had suppressed him with swordsmanship.
"Farewell."
Mihawk sheathed his sword, with no intention of continuing the fight, and turned to leave.
Hancock snorted lightly, looking at Mihawk's back. She wouldn't attack an opponent who had given up. Moreover, she was not used to sneak attacks from behind.
"Shin, are we letting him go?" Hancock asked Shin.
"Let him go." Shin glanced at Mihawk and said.
Mihawk wasn't here to cause trouble, just to challenge him. Shin wouldn't kill him for that.
————
"Shin, how was my swordsmanship?" Hancock ca to Shin's side, looking at him with anticipation.
"Well, Hancock, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Shin asked Hancock.
"Of course the truth. I want to hear the truth!!"
"Fine, since you want the truth, I'll say it—Hancock, your swordsmanship is still fairly average."
After Shin finished, Hancock pouted, her face filled with dissatisfaction. Was it really that average? Truthfully, she wasn't convinced.
"For most, your swordsmanship is already quite good... But compared to , you're still far off." Shin flicked Hancock's nose and said.
"Oh. But I can't compare to you, Shin. Isn't that a given?" Hancock nodded, then said to Shin.
"So, you can't take this for granted. Work hard. In the future, your talent will definitely improve again."
Shin patted Hancock's head and said to her with a smile.
"Will it really improve?" Hancock didn't quite believe it. She hadn't made any progress in her strength recently, as if she had reached her limit.
"Well, that depends on your own efforts. I can't say for sure." Shin spread his hands and said with a slight smile.
————
The Pluton warship continued to advance, and at full speed, the speed of the warship was ridiculously fast.
"Shin, we're moving too fast. The people on the ship can't handle it," Olvia said.
"Then let's slow down a bit."
Shin said.
After that, Shin's pirate crew encountered many pirate crews blocking their way. These were all affiliated with the Big Mom Pirates. They were here to cause trouble for Shin and his group.
"I don't know if Big Mom's head was hit or sothing, to send these wastes to stop us." Shin couldn't help but say. What could these people do? Cause trouble?
"She's probably desperate." Olvia smiled slightly and said to Shin.
"Yes, that's a possibility." Shin nodded. It was possible that she was desperate. After all, she was about to face her greatest disaster.
The closer they got to Whole Cake Island, the more pirate crews they encountered. Shin didn't spare a single one—wiped them all out. With the Kuja Pirates' current strength, Shin didn't even need to lift a finger.
His crew wasn't just for decoration. So pirate crews got cut clean in half by a single slash from Hancock, while others were vaporized by one lightning bolt from Olvia.
