The Black Throne of One Piece

Reggie, the top cadre of the Ram Gang, is an outstanding swordsman. Once upon a time, he gained a great reputation on the great route with one sword and one sword. The reason is that his saber is the famous ice ghost.

Legend has it that the ice ghost is a cursed blade, in which an evil ice ghost is sealed, and those who hold it will be given the power of freezing, but at the same time, they will also be cursed by the soul being swallowed by it after death.

Although it is not clear whether the curse in the legend is true, Reggie does have the power of freezing after holding the ice ghost. All enemies who are injured by his slash will have their wounds instantly frozen, and then the cold poison will enter the body and die quickly.

Therefore, the ice sword Joreghi once terrified people on the great route.

Until one day, he met a young swordsman with eagle-like eyes. Bing Jianhao never appeared on the great route again, and the whereabouts of Bing Gui was also unknown.

 …

At dusk, in the fencing dojo at the headquarters of the Ram Gang, in a certain empty room, Reggie was alone in it, wiping a knife with a clean towel.

If anyone is here at this time, they will be surprised to find that this old swordsman who usually maintains a cold expression is looking at the knife in his hand with affection at this time. What you are facing is not a cold knife, but your lover.

Unfortunately, no matter how affectionately Reggie looks at the knife in his hand, the knife will not respond to him.

Moreover, this knife is not perfect, the originally sharp blade is full of gaps, and even lacks the important point of the blade, the gap is smooth and smooth, obviously it was cut off by some kind of sharp tool.

Regarding this, Reggie didn't mind at all, and still wiped the knife in his hand affectionately over and over again.

"Boom boom boom~"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the room.

When Reggie heard the voice, the movements in his hands stopped immediately, his brows frowned slightly, and his face quickly returned to his usual cold expression, and he said coldly, "What's the matter?"

The person outside the door was Reggie's first disciple, Lei But, who heard that the tone of the master's words just now was wrong, and immediately replied respectfully: "Teacher, today is the day for your lecture, and the time is almost up, do you want to prepare a bit?"

As the master of the swordsmanship dojo, Reggie usually does not teach the students by hand, but he will still teach a class every week in person, explaining his understanding of swordsmanship, and will also answer some doubts about swordsmanship for the students in class.

However, the objects he taught were only the closed disciples he really accepted in the fencing dojo.

"Yeah, it's time again, I see, you go down."

Reggie learned that he had forgotten the class time, so he calmed down and ordered.

At the same time, in the huge training room of the swordsmanship dojo, hundreds of members of the Ram gang with wooden knives gathered together. They are currently competing in pairs under the guidance of some instructors and learning from each other.

As a result, there was a sound of wooden knives colliding with each other in the swordsmanship dojo, which was also mixed with the painful cries of some students being hit by wooden knives.

Barr is also in the fencing dojo at this time, but he is not in the training room at this time, but is competing with a young man in the courtyard outside with a real knife and a real gun.

The young man's name is Els. He is 15 years old this year. He is Reggie's youngest closed disciple. He is a well-known swordsmanship genius in the port of Vilia. Can defeat adults who have practiced swordsmanship here for five or six years.

"Keng Keng Keng~"

The knife turned into an afterimage in the hands of the two, and they continued to confront each other in the air. Each impact would make a loud sound, and fleeting sparks also appeared in the air.

Suddenly, a flash of swords and swords appeared in the snow-covered courtyard.

In just five or six minutes,

The two fought each other thousands of times, and the fights were back and forth, and the footprints of the fight were all over the entire courtyard.

During the process, Barr's eyes would suddenly flash a red light. At this time, Els would be suppressed by him in an instant.

In the eyes of laymen, the swordsmanship strength of the two is almost the same, and it will be impossible to tell the winner for a while, but in the eyes of insiders, Els, who is fighting Baer, ​​is about to lose.

The reason for his defeat was not that his sword skills were inferior to Barr's. In fact, his sword skills were actually superior to Barr's, because in the battle, Barr was basically on the defensive.

The reason why Els was defeated was because of his physical strength. Thousands of consecutive violent slashes seriously consumed his physical strength, which made him flushed and panting slightly, while his opponent was like a monster. Still not blushing or out of breath, the force of swinging the knife was as fierce and powerful as ever.

"Don't fight, don't fight, you monster, why do you feel that your physical strength is getting better and better, damn it, I am so unwilling, this time I couldn't beat you again."

After another seven or eight minutes, Els, who felt a strong tingling pain from his right arm, finally couldn't hold on any longer. He quickly pushed Barr back with a sword, and then said loudly, with a gritted expression of unwillingness on his face.

"Els, your physical strength is getting better and better. You lasted for a full fourteen minutes this time."

Seeing this, Barr let out a long breath and smiled slightly.

After joining the Ram Gang on the afternoon of the second day of his patrol mission, he came to the swordsmanship dojo founded by Reggie to learn swordsmanship, and he would come here every day after get off work to practice swordsmanship. Now he has persisted for more than a month.

Since he already possessed basic swordsmanship, he quickly skipped the process of practicing the basics with wooden knives, and instead used real knives to fight against students who had basic swordsmanship.

However, in less than three weeks, Barr, who insisted on practicing Nine Snake Body Refining Technique every day, defeated all the students with basic sword skills in the Sword Art Dojo.

Ordinary people practice swordsmanship, and they may be exhausted if they concentrate on practicing for two hours a day. If they still engage in high-intensity battles, their hands may be so sore the next day that they cannot hold the knife stably.

With his talent for regeneration, Barr doesn't have to worry about these things at all. He is very energetic and self-disciplined. He has been training hard since he started learning fencing in the fencing dojo. He can practice for several hours after work every day. In the high-intensity battle, almost every student who has mastered basic swordsmanship has fought over and over again.

He originally had a good talent in swordsmanship, and after joining such a desperate training, his swordsmanship strength will naturally improve by leaps and bounds, and the speed of improvement is very fast.

"Yes, that's great. I thought you were the only monster who kept improving. Just wait and see. Sooner or later, I will surpass you in physical strength."

When Els heard what Barr said, his face changed instantly, and he grinned happily, a little heartlessly, as if he was really happy with his progress.

Seeing Els smiling so happily, Barr also laughed along with him, with a hint of envy in his eyes.

It had been a long time since Barr had seen such a happy and clean smile. At the same time, he also knew that he might never be able to smile as happily as the person in front of him, so he couldn't help showing a little envy in his heart.

Els, a pure person, a pure swordsman, he is a new peak of swordsmanship that Barr encountered after defeating all the students who mastered basic swordsmanship in the swordsmanship dojo, and there is still a long way to go before he completes the climb.

Because the age difference between the two is not too big, and they are swordsmanship geniuses in the swordsmanship dojo, they soon became good friends in battles again and again. He was the first friend that Barr came to the port of Vilia to really make friends with.

"Eyrs, come and listen to the class."

Suddenly, a cold voice came from nearby.

Hearing this voice, Barr immediately turned around and respectfully saluted the old swordsman with a serious expression not far away.

"Teacher, you are here, okay, I will go right away."

At the same time, Els also turned around, ran up to Reggie, and said with a smile, not feeling restrained at all by the old swordsman's prestige.

Reggie obviously liked Els very much, and he was not angry at Els' behavior in front of him. Instead, he smiled, nodded and turned to leave.

But as soon as he took a step, he found Els pulled his clothes and winked at him, then turned around again, glanced at Barr lightly, and said softly: "You come here too."

During this period of time, Barr's swordsmanship progressed, and Reggie also noticed it. Although he didn't like this student who was not pure enough, he had to admit that Barr was indeed a swordsmanship genius.

Since Ayrs came forward to intercede now, he should reluctantly accept it, and treat it as a whetstone for Ayers in the future.

Barr didn't know what Reggie was thinking at this moment. He was overjoyed when he heard Reggie's words, and immediately saluted Reggie in a respectful manner, and replied respectfully, "Yes, Master Reggie."

He knew that from the moment Reggie took the initiative to ask him to attend the class, he was also Reggie's closed disciple.
