I summon the shadow army in Pirates

Bang bang bang!

Intensive gunshots resounded throughout the training ground.

After three days of training on how to hold a gun, Navy recruits can finally practice shooting.

Although the pirate world has a variety of weapons, guns kill the most people.

Coles has a deep understanding of the power of the flintlock gun, because not long ago, he asked the shadow soldiers to use the flintlock gun to sneak attack and kill the pirate Arden whose overall strength far exceeded him.

There are many masters of using guns in the pirate world, such as the Yonko's deputy captain Beckman, the cadre Jesus Bu and so on.

The practice of marksmanship is also indispensable.

…

Time passed slowly during practice.

In the first month of his recruit period, Coles basically spent every day learning basic naval knowledge, practicing marksmanship, and exercising his physical fitness.

After completing the naval general knowledge class, Instructor Kahn officially changed the naval general knowledge class to a swordsmanship class!

It's still the same classroom.

Kahn stood on the podium and began the opening remarks of the new course.

"In the battle with pirates, the enemy will often engage in close combat with you. When faced with this situation, your marksmanship becomes somewhat limited.

So, starting from today, I will teach you the basic sword skills of close combat. "

Coles' expression immediately became serious.

Although he has Devil Fruit abilities, he has no intention of relying too much on the fruit.

Learning swordsmanship means he chooses another main attack route for himself.

On the podium, Kahn took off the black saber from his waist and displayed it in front of everyone.

"Before teaching the basics of swordsmanship, let me first educate you on the quality of knives. Most knives on the market are made by ordinary craftsmen. Although they can be used for combat, they are not very tough."

"In addition, among the many knives in the world, weapons made by famous swordsmiths are called famous knives. The materials of these famous knives are far superior to ordinary knives, and their sharpness is even more extraordinary."

"The more outstanding representatives of the famous swords are [Supreme Great Quick Sword with Twelve Skills], [Great Quick Sword with Twenty-one Skills] and [Good Quick Sword with Fifty Skills]."

Kahn slowly pulled out the long black sheath sword in his hand, and a dazzling sword light appeared in the classroom.

"My accessory knife, named Ember, was made by a top-notch craftsman a hundred years ago, and is one of the twenty-one craftsmanship of the Big Knife.

Its scabbard is completely jet black, and the handle is carved with a delicate spiral pattern. The overall curvature of the blade is slightly smaller, but it is sharp enough to easily cut through boulders. "

After listening to Instructor Kahn's introduction, the recruits immediately looked at the famous sword with envy.

Dasqi's eyes were even more excited, and she asked a little embarrassedly: "Instructor, can you let us see this famous sword in person?"

Kahn didn't take no for an answer.

"Of course, everyone can observe."

After taking over the ember of the famous sword, Dasqi was immediately attracted to this long-standing and fast sword.

She has been fond of famous swords since she was a child and has a strong interest in them. She even made a special wish.

That is, I hope I can collect all the famous swords in the world that have been taken away by evil people.

As the recruits continued to be passed on, the embers of the famous sword finally came into the hands of Coles.

As soon as Coles held the handle of this famous sword, he could feel a strong sense of stability.

This famous sword was the weapon that Kahn used to block William's attack for him.

Coles thought it was a knife of extraordinary quality at first, but he didn't expect it to be a sharp knife worth more than ten million beli!

After all the new recruits had observed the famous swords, Kahn also began to formally teach basic swordsmanship.

On the training ground.

Each person holds a wooden knife in their hands and undergoes basic training under Kahn's guidance.

"The foundation of swordsmanship lies in the way you hold the weapon, body movements, breathing essentials, etc. You can call it 'position' for short. As long as your 'position' meets the requirements, you will naturally be able to control the swordsmanship."

Coles followed Instructor Kahn's words and began to repeatedly practice the basic movements of swordsmanship to ensure that every posture was correct.

same.

The same goes for other Navy recruits.

Repeated practice more than a dozen times will not make these recruits feel boring, they will even have a sense of freshness.

But as they continued to repeat, the recruits began to feel soreness and fatigue in their arms, their movements began to become skewed, and their breathing became unstable. Only a handful of them could continue to maintain the correct posture.

Kahn has been supervising the movements of the new recruits. After seeing this scene, he immediately asked everyone to maintain correct movements.

In addition to talent in swordsmanship, if you want to improve and gain, your own efforts are essential.

If you want to give up just because of the pain, you won't be able to practice swordsmanship well at all.

…

For new recruits.

Boring training goes on every day.

These trainings and subjects constantly refine their character and will, and the ultimate goal is to turn them into qualified naval soldiers.

Despite knowing this, the navy recruits still find it a bit difficult.

However, there are always others among the new recruits.

Dasqi is the other one. Although she has average talent, she studies swordsmanship very hard.

As for Coles.

The recruits called him "Monster"!

Because not only did Coles not get bored with training, he even felt that the amount of training was not enough.

It was late at night, the moon and stars were sparse.

The recruits were already fast asleep in their dormitories.

On the training ground, Coles was still training basic swordsmanship.

After eating the Shadow Fruit.

His requirements for sleep have been greatly reduced. He only needs three hours of rest every day to ensure a full mental state. This means that he will have more training time than others.

However, Coles' situation is not too special. It is said that Blackbeard has not slept since he was born.

That is the real "monster"!

Hazy starlight fell on the training ground.

Coles held the wooden knife in his hand and repeated the training again and again.

Sweat flowed from his handsome face and finally fell to the ground along his chin.

Suddenly, a figure wearing a navy coat appeared not far from the training ground.

Coles stopped practicing basic swordsmanship and saluted: "Instructor Kahn."

Kahn nodded and asked warmly.

"Why don't you go to bed so late and still practice swordsmanship here?"

Coles answered truthfully.

"Reporting to Instructor Kahn, my strength is still too weak. If I meet a pirate like William again, I will not be a match at all.

So I only have to keep training, keep sweating, and keep practicing, so that I can close the gap with those strong people. "

Kahn could feel the firmness in Coles's words, and he didn't say anything he wanted to persuade him. Finally, he turned around and left with a word of encouragement.

"Okay, come on!"

Coles was a little stunned. This, this doesn't seem to be in line with the development of the plot?

Instructor Kahn saw that he was working so hard to practice swordsmanship, shouldn't he teach him a few unique swordsmanship moves, or teach him the experience of swordsmanship?

However, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have it!

Although he did not receive special guidance from instructor Kahn, Coles was not disappointed and continued to practice the basic swordsmanship during the day.

As the saying goes, a drop of water can penetrate a stone. As long as you practice day after day, even the most common basic swordsmanship can still display extremely powerful power.

And in the later time.

Coles also understood that Instructor Kahn was actually a very fair person who treated every recruit equally without special treatment.

Real swordsmanship experience.

Instructor Kahn also told it in the course, but very few people could understand it.

According to Instructor Kahn, 'meditation' is one of the methods that can quickly improve the swordsmanship after everyone learns the basics of swordsmanship.

Compared with the practice of sword moves, spiritual practice is also extremely important.

To this.

Coles also had some knowledge.

In the previous life, there was a Shinto Muken-ryu swordsmanship school. It is said that the founder realized the powerful swordsmanship in a meditative state.

In the original comics, Roronoa Zoro often meditated on the ship, and later displayed powerful sword moves.

It can be said that in this pirate world, spiritual and spiritual practice are also particularly important for improving swordsmanship.

After a thorough introduction to basic swordsmanship.

Coles also started to practice formally according to the meditation method described by instructor Kahn.
