The cheap Sasuke nock off stared at you wide eye and disgust littered his face. You're taking him for a joke. No one humiliates Sasuke 2.0. He lifted his gaze to look you in the eyes." If what you say is true, I will take this as an insult. But don't worry I'll make sure to enlighten you" sword in had he lunged forward towards you and scream in anger "I WILL SHOW YOU WHAT TRUE SWORDSMANSHIP IS"

Y/n p.o.v

You just stood motionless as he approached you at full speed. Bringing one of your hands up you rubbed your temple. "God did he really have to shout I'm right here" you muttered. But you were kind of interested, what is 'true swordsmanship'. A new skill is always welcome. Finally Micheal was in position to strike. He swung the sword in a downwards motion to hit you dead in the chest. With slight panic you leaned back to avoid the strike. He retaliated by sending a flurry of strikes at you, none hitting their intended mark. You had swerved out of the way with practiced ease. This only seemed to further infuriate him. His movements becoming sloppy and impulsive. Honestly speaking watching paint dry would've been more entertaining.

Little did you know this battle was more than a bit entertaining for a certain swordsman. The way you weaved through the attacks, his strikes were like water off a ducks back. This only intrigued Mihawk farther, you were clearly quite experienced in the battle field. But the fluidity of your movements are only something that can be a achieved with a least a few decades of training. Your age clearly doesn't match up with this fact. You were young, age twenty at most. He didn't understand but he was sure to find out after this tournament.

On a different note, someone a little younger was also interested. Zoro knew you were special yes, you were an angel after all. But this was beyond him, how were you moving so fast? How'd you make it to the finals without unsheathing your sword? Did you really know no swordsmanship whatsoever? So many questions but not enough answers. He stared a you in awe during the fight, there was just something telling him that you were going to be more important than anything in his life. Unbeknownst to him he added another reason to continue living to his list. To become strong enough to protect you and hold you in his arms. He didn't really understand why he was feeling this way but he sure as hell didn't mind.

Back to the task at hand, Micheal was getting slower. To try and finish this quickly. He was about to strike a fatal blow at your clothing, he was so close to the fabric. Worried it might blow your cover you harder your gaze and stared right into his soul. The hairs on the back of his neck stood. All his senses were telling him that if he landed that hit it would be the last he ever carried out. A cold sweat broke out and he jumped back distancing himself from you.

"WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT THE LAST YEARS CHAMPION AND CROWD FAVOURITE MR SUZUKI HAS STOPPED HIS ATTACK JUST SHORT OF HITTING MR HONDA. WHAT MORE HES DRENCHED IN A COLD SWEAT WHAT COULD MAKE THIS PROUD MAN COWER IN FEAR" the commentator exclaimed. The crowd was on the edge of their seats. Everyone was wondering who will come out on top. The mysterious hunk of delicious meat or the cheap nock off Sasuke.

Mihawk had to suppress a shutter that look was not anything to scoff at. There was no haki infused into it but you could feel the air of dominance it held. Oh how excited (not like that you perverts. He ain't Hisoka) he was for a new rival. He looked on with anticipation for the unknown. What will you do next?

The expression on your face faded just as quickly as it appeared, Micheal even convinced himself it wasn't even there in the first place. But Mihawk knew it was definitely there, and this change in your demeanour meant you were definitely holding back in this fight. Oh you really were a mystery.

Seeing your utterly innocent looking face kinda dumb too. Micheal charges with newfound resolve, unfortunately you were distracted by this one kid in the crowd. He had the most humongous buck teeth, with a gap in the middle that would rival the grand canyons. If I didn't know any better I would've called out his rabbit looking ass for wearing human cloths. In your moment of distraction Micheal was now in front of you about to land his hit. I'm the nick of time you managed to lean back and avoid the blade.
