East China Sea

While Luther was on vacation in the Water City, Gion also settled in Shigezuki Village.

The visit of a nominally world’s best swordsman gave Shuangyue Dojo a great shock.

In particular, Gion only used two swords to knock away the wooden sword of Koushiro, the leader of the Isshin Dojo, which caused a huge sensation.

Gion was sitting on his knees in the shade, with Kimpira on his knees, looking at Koina who was practicing her sword not far away.

Under the bright afternoon sun, the scenery on the beach is as beautiful as a picture on a postcard. On this natural canvas surrounded by the sea, a little girl of only 9 years old is concentrating on waving the big sharp knife in her hand – Wado Ichimonji

As early as the day when Kuina became a disciple, Koushiro handed over his sword to Kuina

After all, this is also a duplicitous father.

“You’re already here, why not take a look together?”

Gion suddenly spoke. With her knowledge, she could tell that someone was in the forest behind her even if she didn’t deliberately detect it.

A tall and thin figure walked out of the dense forest. It was Kuina’s father, Koushiro Shigezuki.

With a smiling face and a pair of round glasses, Koushiro doesn’t look like a swordsman at all, but like a teacher.

Only when paired with the sword on the waist and the swordsman uniform on the body can the temperament of a swordsman be gained.

“I’ll make you laugh, the Great Swordsman of Gion!”

Koushiro didn’t have any scruples and sat cross-legged not far from Gion, looking at Koina who was practicing her sword.

Gion glanced at the gentle-looking Koushiro, and he was actually quite surprised to see such a person in the East China Sea.

Although Koushiro is not as good as the top experts, he is by no means inferior even to Kozuki Oden’s retainers.

Such a character lives in seclusion in the East China Sea. It’s weird no matter how you think about it.

“Do you still not agree with the path Guina is going to take?”Gion said calmly

“Recognize and even understand this is the identity of being a swordsman. But in addition to being a swordsman, I am also a father”

Koushiro sighed with emotion, staring blankly at Kuina’s hard work practicing swordsmanship, and a trace of distress flashed unconsciously in his eyes.

“Since as a swordsman, shouldn’t it be a gratifying experience to see one’s children surpass oneself?”

Gion said with a smile, she didn’t have the same idea about Koushiro.

Koushiro still smiled after hearing this, shook his head slightly and said:

“The great swordsman of Gion’s dedication to his sword is beyond the reach of mere mortals like me. But you should also know that if you want to reach your level, just putting in hard work may not necessarily pay off. Opportunity, hard work, and talent, all three are indispensable”

“Kuina’s talent is very good, even better than Zoro’s child if cultivated properly. But as a father, I don’t want her to be so tired in this life. Success is certainly a good thing, but as a swordsman, how can I not know the pain and sweat it took?”

“How could it be so easy to become the world’s best swordsman?…”

When Koushiro said this, he couldn’t help but sigh.

Who didn’t have the dream of being number one in the world when they were young, but after all, there is only one person who is number one in the world, and very few people in the same era can win this title.

In the end, there are almost no people who can maintain this title and die well.

Since the outcome is already determined, he naturally does not want his daughter to embark on this path.

Hearing Koushiro’s words, Gion chuckled, glanced at the jungle behind him intentionally or unintentionally, and said:

“As a father, your position is impeccable. So now that you know how difficult it is to become number one in the world, what do you think about your disciple Sauron’s pursuit?”

When Gion finished speaking, the jungle behind seemed to move.

With the strength of Koushiro a

“Zoro…”

Koushiro sighed, and his eyes moved behind him unconsciously.

But after just one glance, he took it back:

“If I want to speak from my heart, in fact, as his teacher, I may have poured my ideals into him.”

“It is precisely because of the impact and failure that I feel unwilling to do so. I hope that one day, Sauron can take my place in that position”

After hearing Koshiro’s words, the noise in the jungle behind became even louder, as if someone was suppressing excitement there.

However, in comparison, Gion remained unfazed:

“Don’t you think it’s too cruel for that child to move forward with a dream on his back?”

“So as your little girl’s teacher, what do you think of your little girl’s dream?”

Koushiro didn’t answer Gion’s question, but asked it in another way.

“Dream?…”

Gion’s soft eyes fell on Kuina

After getting along for a few days, from the beginning because of Luther’s mission, she now fell in love with this girl who kept working hard.

“The dream is Guina’s idea. As her teacher, I don’t want to emphasize this.”

As she spoke, Gion’s mind suddenly rang with the words Luther once said. A soft smile appeared on her face and she couldn’t help but say:

“I cultivate her just because her efforts deserve to see better scenery. No matter where she ends up in the future, after all, she has seen the scenery on the road, instead of carrying some regrets all her life.”

“Just to see a different scenery?…”

Koushiro subconsciously looked at Kuina in the distance, with some kind of shock in his eyes.

If he recognized Gion’s strength as the world’s best swordsman before, then now, he believes that Gion’s mind is worthy of the title of the world’s best swordsman.

Or rather, only swordsmen like Gion are qualified to reach that position.

Gion glanced at Koushiro and the jungle behind him, and stood up slowly:

“Koushiro, as a swordsman, why should he force himself to say something against his will. I’m ready to accept your challenge if you want”

After saying that, she walked towards Kuina in the distance

After all, the real purpose of Koushiro coming to her this time is not about Kuina’s future, but to convince him

But in fact, Gion believed that Koushiro had already made his choice

If Koushiro really didn’t support Kuina in pursuing her dream, he wouldn’t have given his daughter his big sword when Gion asked her to practice with a real sword.

I have been working with big swords since childhood, and there is a high probability that I will master black swords in the future.

Both Gion and Koshiro know this very well.

Since it was decided earlier, why should we still be hesitant like now?…

However, at least Koushiro has made a choice now. It is precisely because of this that Gion said the second half of the sentence

And just after Gion stepped forward to teach Kuina, Zoro’s 5-year-old figure walked out of the jungle.

At this time, he didn’t have the domineering power of the future second-in-command of the Four Emperors Straw Hat Pirates. He looked like a new swordsman.

“Teacher, do you want to have a battle with that one?”

Zoro looked excited, and he ignored many parts of the conversation between Koushiro and Gion.

He only remembered that Koushiro wanted to inherit everything from the other party and compete for the title of No. 1 in the world.

It would definitely be a great blessing for him if he could witness Gion’s strength with his own eyes now.

“ah! After I cultivate my sword for a day, I will launch a formal challenge to that person, which is different from the previous wooden sword duel.”

Koushiro said with a smile, there was already a touch of determination in his eyes.

Kuina has Gion’s teachings, so he feels at ease

In this case, for the sake of Sauron’s future, he is willing to risk it once and leave a mark on Sauron’s heart.

Let’s use his sword to become the nourishment for Sauron’s future progress!
