Chapter 81 *Hidden*

“Even you don’t know Hughes Moore?”

In the largest office of Battleship, Rowen looked at Momonga with a surprised expression on his face.

He came to Momonga to inquire about the Sword he had gotten. He had thought that this blade should be a Famed Blade (Meitō) like Mihawk’s Black Blade (Kokutō) Yoru(Night).

He had pulled this blade out of the Giant Snake’s Heart. He is completely clueless about the Thunder Longsword!

Momonga thought for a long time but he couldn’t even think of who this “Thunderous Sword Hero” Hughes Moore was.

As a veteran who had been sailing on the Sea for decades, regardless of age or seniority, Momonga has enough confidence to say that if he doesn’t even know him, then this person is probably from hundred years ago!

The Hell Island Crab has always played the identity of being an ordinary Island before it was sealed.

No one knows how long it has existed, and no one knows how long the White Snake has lived on the island. For them, Time is beyond consideration. Perhaps only after returning to the Marine Headquarters can they find clues from the dusty old data.

However, although he didn’t know who Hughes Moore is, Momonga recognizes the sword in front of him.

He picked up the Longblade that was one meter and thirty centimeters long from the table, and slowly ran his fingers across the mirror-like bright surface, feeling the fierce counterattack of the violent thunder and lightning, and envy appeared in his eyes as he spoke: “One of the former Saijō ō Wazamono, the Dragon Contracting Sword–Thunder Cloud.”

Rowen’s eyes widened in an instant: “Saijō ō Wazamono?!!! You mean to say that this is one of the only twelve Saijō ō Wazamono in the world?!”

Fuck!

This Sword was really a lucky break for him!

“It used to be once!”

Momonga glared at Rowen with disgust. Swordsman’s love for swords is the same for everyone, whether they are Pirates or Marines.

Although this Sword was the former Saijō ō Wazamono, it is also a rare weapon, but it ended up in the hands of Rowen, a guy whose fists moved faster than his brain.

If it wasn’t for his thin-skin and fearful rumors that a Headquarter Vice-Admiral snatched the Recruits trophy, and the fact that his reputation would be ruined, Momonga would have snatched this Sword from Rowen!

“Once?”

Rowen slightly frowned and asked: “What happened?”

“It’s not a hidden story, it’s just a story that many people know.”

Momonga put the Thunder Cloud back on the table and looked at the extra charred traces on the table, and sighed: “I can recognize it not only because it was previously listed as one of the Twelve Saijō ō Wazamono, but also because it is the only Saijō ō Wazamono Blade that has been broken.”

Broken… What?!!

Seeing Rowen’s suspicious look, Momonga gave him a sullen look and said: “No matter how sharp and strong a weapon is, there are limits to it. If someone is determined to destroy it then he can destroy even a Saijō ō Wazamono Blade.”

Specifically, Momonga is not clear about the story of what happened hundreds of years ago. There are hundreds of versions circulating among the people and it is completely impossible to find the truth among them.

However, although there are thousands of stories, the trend is the same, which can basically be summarized like this: A Swordsman, Slaughtered a Dragon, Regret, Broken Sword, Four Processes.

In Momonga’s memory, he knew the story like this.

A long time ago, a swordsman from West Blue found the country where the legendary Giant Dragon lived on the Grand Line.

Facing the legendary creature- Giant Dragon, the Swordsman, like his predecessors and descendants, wanted to become a Dragon-Slaying Swordsman.

But the Swordsman didn’t kill the Dragon, he let go of all the Giant Dragons that fell under his sword as he only wanted to fight the strongest Dragon King!

Later, he passed the test of the Five-Colored Giant Dragon and boarded the Thunderous Holy Mountain, the core of the Giant Dragon kingdom, and fought with the Dragon King who protected this kingdom.

The final result is was naturally the victory of the Swordsman, but when the Dragon King fell, the entire Giant Dragon Kingdom suddenly began to collapse.

With volcanic eruptions and dark clouds appearing on the island. Doomsday seemed to have descended on this land.

The Swordsman knew what he had done at this time. The King of Dragons was the backbone of this country and he killed the Dragon King. Now, the Giant Dragon race was about to end!

Because of his competitive heart resulted in a terrible result of genocide, the kind Swordsman facelessly faced the tragedy he brewed with his own hands, preparing to apologize with his death.

But at this time, the Dragon King who was dying stopped him, and set his source of power, the Thunder Gem, on the hilt of the Sword, asking the Swordsman to protect the world after the Giant Dragon disappeared.

The Swordsman agreed, he took his new sword and returned to West Blue, he punished the wicked and made atonement for his sins.

“Dragon Contracting Sword–Thunder Cloud” was named after it. “Dragon” means “The Initial Knot”, and the contract was concluded with the Giant Dragon, so it was named “Dragon Contracting Sword-Thunder Cloud”.

The Thunder Cloud Sword has the power of lightning because of the Thunder Gem bestowed by the Dragon King, which allows one to master the power of lightning.

During the years when the Swordsman was active, the Thunder Cloud Sword was the well-deserving of the name Saijō ō Wazamono!

Time flies and the time did fly.

Decades have passed in the blink of an eye, and the Swordsman was getting older and weaker. Before he died, he locked himself in the room alone, without eating or drinking.

The Swordsman had been dead for many days when his family found that something was wrong and broke in the room. In addition to the Broken Dragon Sword, there was a suicide note beside him.

The suicide note recorded what the Swordsman has seen and heard in the Giant Dragon Kingdom, and he also told the world why he was so jealous and filled with sin and his eyes couldn’t tolerate a little bit of sin.

To paraphrase the words of the Swordsman, the Dragon Sword seems to be glorious, but it is actually a result of Sin!

With his death, this Sin should not be inherited by the future generations, so it took him several months to personally break the Sword that had accompanied him throughout his life.

“The current Dragon Sword was recast by the legendary Blacksmith on some island three hundred years ago with meteorite iron that fell from the sky.

Although there are no cracks on the outside, any qualified swordsman can feel the internal failure of the Dragon Sword. It’s no longer eligible to be called one of Saijō ō Wazamono.”

Speaking of this, Momonga sighed and said: “I cannot say whether the story about the Giant Dragon Kingdom is true or not? After all, what I heard is only one single version. But there is a definite history of the Dragon Sword breaking and recasting, and it itself is even more impossible. It itself is more irrefutable proof of its existence. So the current DragonSsword belongs to neither the Saijō ō Wazamono Twelve Works nor the 21 ō Wazamono. It is a well-known but forgotten sword.”

“The Forgotten Sword?”

Rowen nodded while he looked at the Thunder Cloud Sword in his hand.

He discovered the anomaly of Thunder Cloud Sword right from the beginning. There was a hidden gap between the 50 cm front and 80 cm back of the sword.

He is not a qualified swordsman, but as the Rumble-Rumble Fruit Ability User, he has an incomparable observational power for thunder and lightning power.
