Codex Pirates

Chapter 20: Dead Sword

The disciples in the dojo looked at each other in dismay. Koshiro stood with his hands behind his back after saying this, with a smile still on his face. The disciples who were still young and full of whimsy in their minds couldn't help but feel a little bit a little bit at his behavior. Suspicious, he waited patiently for a while, but there was still no miracle. He Daoyi's words didn't happen as everyone thought, and suddenly jumped up and slashed at the bamboo mat.

"Teacher?" A childish voice sounded in the hall with some doubts.

Koshiro finally made a move, he pulled out the Kazuichi monogram from the scabbard again, let the blade point upwards, put it on the ground, then grabbed a bundle of bamboo mats, and threw it on top.

He Dao Yi Character is a big sharp knife, not some divine tool of sword fairy. Its blade is naturally extremely sharp, but it does not have any miraculous ability to spontaneously generate sword energy, and no outsider wields it. The blade of the knife was embedded in it, but after rolling it twice, it was still not cut into two like the previous similar ones.

Koshiro smiled and put away the bamboo mat and He Daoyi's words, and said to everyone: "The sword is very important and extremely important to a swordsman, but it is still not the root of a swordsman. The shape of a swordsman does not depend on you. How sharp your knife is, but your own measure."

He pointed to Edmund who was still standing stupidly with the rusty sword in his hand: "For a swordsman, talent is the foundation. Without a treasured sword, a rusty sword can still play a role as a swordsman. But if the knife is gone, so what if it’s sharp? He can’t even move.”

After Koshiro finished speaking, he paused, and looked at his disciples with some expectation: "Do you understand?"

What responded to him was a tidy shake of the head. Among the disciples listening to the class in the hall, the oldest was no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, and more children were eleven or twelve years old, or even eight or nine years old. The teaching content is not so easy to be understood by them.

Valon shook his head like a rattle drum, and Aramis was having fun watching him. He must be good at training hard and doing things that are achieved through hard work and perseverance, but this kind of thing is really his biggest shortcoming. plate.

William didn't shake his head, his heart was shaken—of course it wasn't because of Koshiro's lecture. Although this class was amazing and interesting to him with a mature soul, it was not to the extent of shock.

What shocked William was that when Koshiro had just finished his lecture, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind, which was exactly the text carved on the stone platform of Destiny Square.

There are already a few more lines of fine print.

Background expertise:

[Apprentice of Yixin Dojo]: Your swordsmanship master was inherited from Yixin Dojo in Donghai Shuangyue Village. In the first years of your swordsmanship, you have benefited a lot from the teachings of the master of the dojo, Koshiro, which is well known.

This is the first time that William has been affected by the Fate Square outside of his dream!

Reminiscent of the changes in Destiny Square after he walked through the first road, William had to wonder whether the power and influence of Destiny Square would grow with the number of roads he walked?

At night, William almost couldn't wait to fall asleep. When he came to Destiny Square, there was still no big change in the square, except that there was an extra road called "Profit Seeker", which was related to his next plan. He is not ready to go on the road.

Before coming to the path of [Wizard of Swordsmanship], the "requirements" recorded on the stone tablet are technical expertise [Introduction to Swordsmanship] and background expertise [Apprentice of Yixin Dojo]. The pace fades as he advances.

William didn't look at the square behind him, and walked forward without looking back. Now he is more curious about what the next square will look like, and whether there will be any functional improvements, so as to verify his ideas.

Leaving the square swallowed by the darkness behind, William strode forward. For some reason, he felt that the darkness on both sides of the road seemed to be about to move, as if it was about to swallow the path and himself like a raging tide at any time.

A golden thread flew out of William's wrist with a few silver threads in the lead. After shaking in the air, it extended towards the end of the road until William couldn't see it. It seemed that there was still no sign of stopping.

The special thread of fate representing Ajin swayed gently with the tenacious thread of fate of Aramis, Wallon, Edmund and others. An invisible wave was transmitted from above, and the darkness on both sides of the road suddenly boiled. After a while, he calmed down again.

William looked at the thread of fate that intended to help him walk through the path of fate, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

...

William doesn't know how profound the swordsmanship in this world is. Even now, he still hasn't reached the edge of improving his swordsmanship. You know, his current strength is more than ten times stronger than a year ago!

The consolation was that, on the other hand, there was progress in what he had told Edmund to do.

During this year, William has been browsing various newspapers and collecting information. These newspapers include local ones, surrounding ones, and global ones. In addition to learning about current events, William also wants to find a long-term job to make money. method, after all, gold and silver mountains also have time to sit and eat.

And the most important thing is to have a channel and network in the future for the local layout.

What's the difference between a pirate and a pirate?

Take the Earth in William’s previous life as an example. Henry Morgan and Francis Drake were pirates who did all kinds of crimes in the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. They were slave traders who deserved to go to hell, but when they returned to England, they were welcome A hero can even become a high-ranking official.

They plundered overseas, sold stolen goods in areas controlled by the United Kingdom, bought valuable supplies, and at the same time received intelligence support from friendly sides. Contrary to the traditional impression of ordinary people, the kind of relying on the sky for food seems to be wandering around at sea all day, just waiting The image of pirates who can try their luck and meet merchant ships in the vast sea runs counter to the image.

In fact, the Spanish transport ship may have just left the pier, and they will be able to receive information later, along with a series of information such as the route, berthing places along the way, and berthing time, etc., all sent by the eyeliner to put on the desk.

The power of those big pirates and sea owls has never been limited to the sea, or even just on the deck. In addition to a group of men who can fight and kill, their strength also includes various connections and forces.

These things allow them to maintain the strength of their boats and guns, and they have a large number of people. Even if they suffer a small setback for a while, they still have a chance to make a comeback, and they have a place to lick their wounds if they are injured.

If the vast sea is compared to a prairie, then pirates like Henry Morgan and Francis Drake are considered wolves. They have a keen sense of smell and strong tracking ability. Once their prey leaves their lair, they are already there. They smell the tempting aroma and incorporate it into their recipes.

And like the Denton Pirates, although everyone has eyes, they are no different from blind people on the sea. If they encounter any robbery, the stolen money can only be piled up on an uninhabited island waiting to rot, and cannot be exchanged for cash. Even important supplies, the gang of pirates running around chased by the navy are not even dogs, at best they are headless chickens.

Well, a modern person in the urban society of the 21st century has come to a world where the living environment is poor and unknown. William didn't bother to do business at his grandma's house.
