Pirate's Rescue

"Kuina, do you understand now? You are already a beginner at wielding a sword with your heart. Next, let go of your doubts and concentrate on practicing the sword."

Itachi said with satisfaction, as expected, Kuina's swordsmanship talent is very good, not much worse than Mihawk.

"is teacher!"

Guina was very excited. Before, she had some doubts about whether practicing swordsmanship like this would really make her stronger. Guina had always been supported by the idea of ​​becoming the strongest swordsman. But at this moment, all of Guina's doubts were gone. Disappeared. Just a few days of practice brought about a completely different change in herself, which made Kuina even more confident.

"Zoro, your talent is actually not bad, but you have too many redundant movements. Which swordsman would rush towards the opponent with his sword raised? If you choose to be like Kuina, wait for the opponent to have a loophole before taking action, Guyina If Na wants to defeat you, it won’t be as easy as it is now. You know, a real master of swordsmanship can make complex moves simple and often defeat the enemy with one move!"

Itachi looked at the lost Zoro and consoled him.

"Making complexity simple? Defeating the enemy with one move?"

Zoro recalled Kuina's action just now. Wasn't it a typical example of reducing complexity to simplicity and defeating the enemy with one move?

"Uncle, I understand. Can I often come to Guina to compete in the future?"

He is worthy of being a great swordsman in the future. His ability to withstand blows is unparalleled by ordinary people. He has recovered now. After all, he has lost to Guina 2001 times. This time is not bad. I was just in disbelief. Guina. Na had changed so much. After realizing it, Zoro was thinking about how he could become stronger.

"Yes, a proper competition can let Kuina know her own shortcomings."

Itachi nodded.

"Thank you, uncle, uncle, this is your sword!"

Zoro held the sword in both hands and handed it back to Itachi.

"Zoro, your talent is no worse than Kuina. What's even more rare is that your obsession with swords is the craziest I have ever seen. Koushiro is also a rare master of swordsmanship, so work hard!"

Itachi said as he took the sword.

"Thank you, uncle. I will work harder. I will not always lose to Kuina!"

Zoro said firmly, then turned and left. Itachi looked at Koushiro standing at the door of the dojo and nodded, then turned and entered the house, while Kuina had already started practicing and was even more motivated.

"Zoron, what do you think after experiencing Kuina's growth?"

Koushiro asked as he looked at Zoro who returned to the dojo.

"Teacher, strong people do not distinguish between genders. As long as they find a suitable path, both boys and girls can become strong. Kuina has already found her own way. Teacher, where is my path?"

Zoro asked, looking up at Koushiro.

"Your path is under your feet and in your heart. Only you can discover your path. All I can do is guide. I can't give you much advice because it may mislead you. In this regard, I have already misled you. Guina, so I can’t mislead you anymore. There are always things in this world that we don’t understand, so don’t jump to conclusions at any time!”

Koushiro said with a sigh.

"I understand, teacher, please teach me your true swordsmanship. I can't be left behind by Kuina!"

Zoro looked at Koushiro firmly and said.

"Okay, I will teach you my swordsmanship tomorrow, so go and prepare!"

Koushiro was also aroused by Itachi and wanted to teach Zoro his true swordsmanship.

After Zoro entered the dojo, Koushiro was still looking at Kuina who was concentrating on contacting Kuina who drew her sword.

"Why would such a master choose Kuina as his disciple? What is his intention? But judging from the results of Kuina's practice, this person is really teaching Kuina swordsmanship, or is it a swordsmanship that I have never seen before? He Who is he? I wonder if Dorag knows the details of this person!"

Koushiro stood in front of the door and thought about Itachi's purpose. He didn't expect Itachi just didn't want Kuina to die unexpectedly, so he stayed in Shuoyue Village to teach Kuina.

After this battle, Zoro began to learn more advanced kendo from Koushiro. Coupled with what he secretly learned from Itachi, Zoro slowly found his own way, abandoned his previous kendo and started a new journey.

It must be said that Zoro's swordsmanship talent is very strong. He can quickly master what Koushiro taught him, and during the competition with Kuina, he continued to absorb Itachi's swordsmanship to enhance his swordsmanship, allowing Zoro to Long's swordsmanship has improved dramatically.

When Itachi taught Kuina the swordsmanship, he also taught Kuina the physical skills. It was not that he wanted Kuina to develop in many ways, but he wanted to at least add some means of fighting enemies to Kuina.

At the same time, medicinal fluids were also being used to improve Kuina's physique, but Kuina didn't know this. Itachi didn't want Kuina to know that her current physique was stronger than that of boys, so he relaxed his sword training.

Spring has passed and autumn has come. Three years have passed. Kuina's swordsmanship has officially reached the threshold of a kendo master. In these three years of competition, Zoro has lost all of them without exception, and the number of defeats has increased to three. After a thousand defeats, even Itachi admired Zoro's resilience, he was truly defeated after repeated defeats.

From one move at the beginning to more than a thousand moves now, Zoro's growth is amazing. The three-sword style really caused a lot of trouble to Kuina. Itachi will also give Zoro pointers from time to time. There are two kinds of The collision of swordsmanship between different schools allowed Zoro to successfully develop a swordsmanship that was different from the two schools and had the characteristics of both schools, which surprised Itachi.

"I have stayed here for three years. Kuina, you have successfully grown into an excellent swordsman. Everything I can teach you has been passed on to you. The rest is up to you. I also I have nothing more to teach you, and it’s time for me to leave.”

After Zoro was defeated for the 3000th time, Itachi felt that it was time to leave, as he had stayed for a little too long.

"Teacher, are you leaving?"

Kuina, who had grown into a young girl, asked tremblingly.

"Yes, I've stayed here for too long. It's time for me to do my own thing. The future path is up to you!"

Itachi said while stroking Kuina's head.

"Teacher, thank you. Without you, I would not be where I am today. It was you who pointed out the path for me and made me understand that girls can also find their own way. I will never forget everything you taught me!"

Kuina said with tears in her eyes.

"The little girl has grown up so much. Guina should never change herself because of others. No one can decide how you want to go, not even your father and I. You must strengthen your beliefs and walk bravely. Go down."

Itachi gave his final instructions to Kuina.

"I know, teacher, I won't let you down!"

Guina put away her reluctance. She understood that the teacher would leave sooner or later. Only when the chicks leave the wings of the eagle can they soar freely in the sky. The time has come for them to face everything by themselves!
