The moon is like a hook, and the night is slightly cool.

Qianyue, who was hiding behind the clouds, seemed to be attracted by the conversation between Makino and Koshiro, and quietly crawled out from behind the dark clouds.

Looking at Makino, Koshiro opened his eyes and was extremely satisfied.

"Makino, you did a good job this time. Not only did you save Guina's life, but you also made up for Guina's long-standing strength that is not as good as a boy. As a father, I am very grateful to you!"

Makino: "Master, you're too flirting with this. It's not natural for me to save Guina!"

Koshiro shook his head, "You are yours, of course, and I express my gratitude for this part of my father."

Makino immediately smiled, and the master has also changed a lot!

"Although the Asura fruit finally turned around and returned to Guina's hands, you still made me feel no regrets. Makino, thank you!"

Makino was about to say something, but Koshiro stopped him.

"Makino, you don't have to be modest. You are even better than I thought. You have completed the task I assigned you well and protected the dojo well!"

Makino: "No, the signs in the dojo were smashed by Seikawa!"

"The signboard of the dojo has never been a plaque. Makino, you have accomplished all my tests well, so I'll give this letter to you!"

As Koshiro said, he took out a piece of paper that was a bit yellow but was extremely intact from his sleeve.

When I opened it, I saw that there were four big words written on it, such as dragons and phoenixes flying, and Xu was passed down.

The Taoist temple has its own set of judgment standards for measuring the level of disciples.

"Cutting paper" is the initial level and is the title for beginners;

"Catalog" is the second level, representing the name of the skills learned through practice;

"Exemption" means obtaining the qualification to tell others the name of the school they have learned, which means that they can become a teacher;

"Everyone pass" means obtaining the inheritance of all the techniques of the genre, representing the most outstanding disciple in the genre and being an existence that is enough to shine the genre;

As for "Don't Xu Ji Chuan", it is a more rare level, which means that the master's techniques can be taught to other people without being recognized by the master.

This means having the right to accept disciples alone!

Makino didn't expect that Koshiro would give him these four words, which represented the master's highest recognition of his disciples.

Seeing that this piece of paper has turned yellow, it must have been a bit old, and there may be other stories behind it!

Seeing Makino's shocked expression, Koshiro smiled with relief.

This disciple is really terrible. It is his supreme honor to be such a genius master.

Of course, occasionally there is a lot of frustration!

The disciple is so smart. Sometimes the master really has nothing to teach. As for the sense of accomplishment, there is no need to mention it!

Koshiro: "Makino, this letter was passed on to me by my master, and now I will pass it on to you."

This calligraphy was passed down to him by Keishiro's master?

Makino was shocked and suddenly felt that the letter on his hand was a little heavy.

Makino thought about it, and immediately folded the characters carefully and then collected them closely.

Seeing Makino cherishing this character so much, Koshiro suddenly felt a big rock in his heart falling.

Koshiro: "Makino, I didn't plan to tell you these things so early, but you are even better than I thought. I'll tell you all!"

Makino was puzzled, what did Koshiro plan to tell him?

"Makino, getting the title of Xu Jizhe, means that you have learned all the techniques of the Taoist temple. But the world is so vast. With your current swordsman, it can only be considered a medium-level level among all swordsmen!"

“Medium level?”

Makino was not too surprised. After all, the high-level combat power in One Piece world is really a level of destruction.

In the war, the white beard easily caused a major earthquake and tsunami, destroying the Navy headquarters Marinfando in a mess.

General Aokiji can freeze all the seas with one move from the Ice Age!

As for the world's largest swordsman, Eagle Eye, he even used Ping A as a ultimate move, and could slash out sword energy that stretches hundreds of meters in length with just one blow.

His strength is nothing in One Piece's world.

However, Makino was curious about how Koshiro judged his strength level?

Seeing Makino's puzzled expression, Koshiro suddenly smiled even happier. Finally, he encountered Makino and didn't understand the realm.

It's so difficult for him as a master!

"Yes. In my understanding, kendo can actually be divided into four realms:"

"The first realm is to use swords as a weapon for battle, and simply know some sword skills. Guina and Zoro are now in this realm."

"The second realm is the combination of swordsmanship and will, and to understand your own [Tao]. Muye, your wise king is the Tao in your heart. In this realm, a swordsman can easily cut off steel."

"The third realm is the combination of swordsmanship and domineering. Domineering is easy to obtain, but hard to find. Therefore, I have never told you about the method of practicing domineering before, because I am afraid that you are too ambitious. Using domineering can you briefly turn the sword into a 'black sword', thereby greatly enhancing the power of the sword."

Koshiro said, breaking a piece of branch from the courtyard.

"The technology of wrapping the domineering armed spirit on weapons is also called [Liuying] in the hometown of our army. Look at Makino."

Perhaps because of the intentional display of Makino, Koshiro made the armed color entangled very slowly, and Makino could even see the domineering aura spreading little by little to the branches.

"Domsy is the hidden power of the human body. It cannot be used by ordinary people. It requires long-term practice and guidance to achieve it. It feels like the skin burning from the inside out and heating, first turning to orange-red and then transitioning to a metallic shiny bright black."

Clam!

With a sound effect, Makino's fist first turned orange and red, and then transitioned to pitch black.

"Master, is that true?"

Click!

Koshiro's squinting eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes almost pushed his glasses away.

What the hell is this?

No matter how good your talent is, you have to have a limit, right?

Koshiro felt his mentality was a little broken!

Seeing Koshiro's disobedient look, Makino smiled.

"Master, thank you for your teaching. Domineering actually, when I was fighting against Seiha, I realized the color of seeing and hearing. Then, my fruit ability allowed me to learn the color of armed color and the color of overlord color!"

Nani?

Koshiro had the urge to vomit blood.

What kind of devil is this tree planting fruit?

Can you learn even domineering indirectly?

What's more, even the Overlord is no exception!

Makino smiled and was completely amused by Koshiro's disobedience.

However, Koshiro was a great swordsman after all, and his mentality was still very good, so he adjusted in a flash.

Koshiro said with a serious expression, "Makino, your fruit ability is very powerful, but as a swordsman, you must not rely too much on the fruit. The strength of your heart is the real strength."

Makino: "Yes."

Keishiro nodded, "The fourth realm is to 'forge the sword with his body through a hundred battles', which will permanently turn the sword into a real 'black sword'. In his hometown of the master, there is a national treasure called 'Black sword Qiushui', which was forged by the great swordsman Ryuma in his lifetime."

"The black knife is also known as the 'reactive sword'. The 'grind sword' may not be sharp enough, but it is extremely tough. Only a real great swordsman can make it. The black knife is so tough that even if a dinosaur step on it, it will not bend a millimeter."

When Makino heard Koshiro's story, he couldn't help but be fascinated.

To create a real black sword, this may be the so-called swordsman’s road!

"Makino, come with me!"

"yes."
Chapter completed!
