That's right, Darren is here to visit Huoshaoshan.

In the battle of the training camp, the determination shown by Huoshaoshan was very appetizing to Darren.

Besides, he still injured himself, so it was reasonable to come to visit him.

"Darren Commodore!?"

Huoshaoshan looked at Darren who was carrying a fruit basket, and was stunned for a moment before reacting immediately.

He smiled a little embarrassedly, and introduced to Darren:

"Darren Commodore, this is my daddy."

"Dad, this is Darren Commodore."

Darren smiled politely at the grumpy uncle:

"Hi, excuse me."

...

There is a maple tree planted in the courtyard, and the fiery red maple leaves are falling in the cool wind, which is absolutely beautiful.

"Why don't you stay in the hospital for a few more days?"

Darren put down the fruit basket, sat casually on the steps, looked at Huoshaoshan who was wrapped like a rice dumpling in front of him and asked.

Naval Headquarters provides free medical care to all Marines, and officers above the school level can enjoy better medical and rehabilitation conditions, such as independent wards.

Huoshaoshan scratched his head with a smile and said:

"The injury is not serious, so I won't trouble the doctors and nurses."

He pouted in the direction of the kitchen,

"And I'm not worried that the old man is alone. As you can see, his eyes are not very good."

Darren nodded.

He briefly glanced at the well-maintained yard, and there were a few dirty kittens squinting and dozing off under the fence and shade.

A yellow-haired dog jumped out of the house at this time, came to Huoshaoshan and licked his hand, its tail wagging like an electric fan.

Darren suddenly understood how the cat scratch marks on Huoshaoshan's arm came from.

"You like animals very much?"

Huoshaoshan rubbed the yellow dog's head, smiled and said:

"That's not true. It's just that sometimes I see them wandering outside, having a meal without a meal. It always feels bad."

Darren was silent, took out a cigar and handed it to Huoshaoshan.

"Can I smoke?"

Huoshaoshan looked at the gilded cigar, was startled for a moment, and took it calmly.

"OK."

So the two sat on the steps like this, swallowing clouds and fog.

"Young man, stay and eat, the meal is ready."

At this time, the blind uncle came out of the kitchen and yelled at Darren.

"It's rare that this boring kid like a gourd has a friend to visit, so don't refuse."

Darren smiled, but didn't refuse.

"OK."

The dishes were simple and home-cooked, but Darren ate happily and enjoyed a warmth that he had never had before.

After the meal, Huoshaoshan automatically took over the job of washing dishes, leaving only Darren and his father at the dinner table.

"My brat, has he caused you a lot of trouble?"

The blind uncle suddenly broke the silence, took out a pack of crumpled cigarettes, and handed Darren one.

Darren shook his head and said:

"Actually, it's just the opposite. I'm the one who caused a lot of trouble for Colonel Huoshaoshan."

While speaking, he took a slight look at the old man with vicissitudes of life in front of him.

At about fifty years old, his face is full of traces of time.

His skin was dark, his hands were covered with calluses, and there was a shocking scar on his face, which spread diagonally from his left eye to his right cheek.

As if sensing Darren's gaze, the uncle pointed to his face, and grinned, with a ferocity and evil spirit hidden in the smile.

"Don't worry, I didn't make it easy for that pirate either."

Darren was dumbfounded.

"Young man, from your voice, you should be a tough and decisive person... that's pretty good."

The blind uncle was smoking a cigarette and suddenly became emotional.

"My kid is too soft, you said he is obviously a Marine, he brings stray cats outside the house every day, I want to throw them all out...Young man, you say that my brat has such a temper, how can he Kill pirates?"

Darren let out a puff of smoke,

"You don't worry too much, Colonel Huoshaoshan is an excellent Marine."

"He is more determined than anyone else in fighting pirates."

He paused, smiled and said:

"And you probably don't know, right? In this training camp, Colonel Huoshaoshan won the fifth place."

The blind uncle was silent when he heard this.

By this time Huo Shaoshan had finished washing the dishes and came back.

"Young man, let's talk." The blind uncle said firmly, then stood up from the chair, turned around and walked out of the room.

Huo Shaoshan smiled awkwardly and said:

"Sorry, the old man's temper is... a little weird."

Darren smiled and said it didn't matter:

"No, uncle, he has a very good character."

Huo Shaoshan was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked:

"Darren, during that battle...you didn't use all your strength, right?"

He stared at the Marine Commodore with burning eyes, expecting an answer.

"Yes."

Darren speaks his mind and doesn't hold anything back.

Huo Shaoshan sighed with regret.

"I thought I had learned a brand new swordsmanship and could keep up with monsters like you..."

"you will."

Darren said seriously, not stingy with his praise.

A person who dares to wield a sword against the strong is always worthy of respect.

"That knife is already very strong."

"Really?"

Huo Shaoshan's eyes lit up.

He thought for a while, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said to Darren excitedly:

"Well... you know my dream is to become a hero like Mr. Garp, a well-known man!"

"A hero's moves always have a cool name, but I've been thinking about it for a long time in the past two days and I can't think of it... Darren, can you help me give that sword a name?"

His expression was filled with the enthusiasm and innocence of a middle-aged boy, which made Darren couldn't help but smile.

To put it bluntly, Huo Shaoshan at this time was just a young man under twenty years old.

"You feel……"

Darren recalled the decisive and stunning firelight of Xiaochang Mountain. After pondering for a second, he smiled and said:

"The name of that knife is 'Huoshaoshan', how about it?"

...

After chatting briefly for a while, Darren didn't stay long and said goodbye to Huo Shaoshan.

When he walked to the door of the yard, Darren noticed Huo Shaoshan's father walking out of the kitchen, holding a large pot of steaming chicken and rice in his hand. He was cursing and bending down to share it with the cats and puppies.

Darren smiled upon seeing this, turned around and waved goodbye to Huo Shaoshan.

"Darren!!"

After walking a certain distance, the roar of burning mountains suddenly came from behind.

Darren looked back.

I saw a short-haired young man with bandages all over his body, standing under the fiery red maple tree, punching himself vigorously in the sunshine.

"I will continue to work hard. One day, I will catch up with you monsters!"

His eyes were high-spirited, glistening with sweat and sunshine.

"I will let that knife, along with my name... resound throughout this world!"

Darren was startled, then laughed wantonly.

"Okay, I'll wait."

...

Every glorious and heroic life,

Every mature and old soul,

There was once a young boy who sweated and punched wantonly under the scorching sun.

This vast and endless sea has become magnificent and shining precisely because of such fiery youth and simple dreams.
