Zoro stood aside with his eyes fixed on him, his eyes flashing with anticipation. He had never seen his teacher take action before, but now he was going to fight against the Bull Demon King.
There is no need to prove how strong the Bull Demon King is, he is recognized as the strongest in the world.
And Koushiro's position in Zoro's heart is irreplaceable.
He knelt down and sat aside, feeling excited in his heart.
He looked forward to the fight between the two.
And with a sword.
…
Koushiro glanced at Seeli in surprise. As far as he knew, what the Bull Demon King was good at was a weapon covered with spikes similar to a mace, right?
Can the Bull Demon King also use a sword?
Koushiro squinted his eyes and looked at the way Xili held the sword. He was clearly a novice!
"are you ready?"
Xi Li shook the bamboo knife in his hand with satisfaction, feeling very good about himself.
"anytime."
Koushiro adjusted his glasses and responded with a smile.
Xili stamped his feet hard on the ground, rushed out with a strong step, and the distance of more than ten steps was instantly shortened. He picked up the bamboo knife in his hand and smashed it on the head.
Seeing this scene, Koushiro couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Is this guy's sword used for smashing?
There are many kinds of swordsmanship, including basic movements such as stabbing, slashing, and slashing.
But Koushiro has never seen swordsmanship used for smashing.
The sound of strong wind breaking through the sky hit his face, and a flash of light flashed in Koushiro's eyes, "The Bull Demon King is powerful and powerful, so it is not suitable to fight head-on."
Simply put, you have to hide!
Whoosh!
Koushiro made a mistake in his steps, dodged sideways, and stabbed Xi Li's wrist with the bamboo knife with his backhand. He saw what Xi Li meant and competed with each other's skills.
In this case, then knocking down the opponent's bamboo sword is considered a victory.
The wrist is where the joints move. Once hit, the bamboo knife in Xili's hand will definitely fly out.
"He has some skills!"
Xili hit the air with one blow, and when he saw that the bamboo knife in Koushiro's hand was about to hit his wrist, he immediately raised his foot and kicked him out.
Koushiromoto was a little confused by this inexplicable kick.
Isn't it a swordsmanship competition?
Even with a kick?
But having said that, there is no rule against kicking, it's just that most swordsmen won't make such an action.
Koushiro's fighting ability is not low, and his swordsmanship is even more impressive than Xi Li's.
There was no way to avoid it, so he calmly raised his arms and prepared to take Xili's kick.
boom!
Not surprisingly, Koushiro was kicked out immediately, like a cannonball that smashed the wall and rolled out of the yard.
Xili: "..."
It was purely a subconscious action. After all, he had never learned swordsmanship, right?
When it comes to fighting, of course it's whatever is convenient.
How to kill the enemy!
Outside the yard, Koushiro patted the hem of his clothes and walked back. Before being kicked, he blocked Xili's kick with his arm.
However, the difference in strength between the two was too great. Even if Koushiro blocked Xili's kick, he could not withstand this terrifying burst of power.
Koushiro is a true master of swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship is second to none in the sea.
It's not difficult to deal with powerful and heavy enemies.
Koushiro used his retreating movements to continuously release the force. Although he looked very embarrassed and smashed through the wall, he did not suffer any serious injuries.
"Sorry, I raised my foot accidentally."
"No problem, come again."
Koushiro shook his head. Judging from his actions just now, he was sure that the Bull Demon King didn't know much about swordsmanship and was just wielding the bamboo sword with pure power.
As Zoro's master, Koushiro decided to test the strength of the Bull Demon King.
After all, we can't let Zoro leave with a weakling.
Whoosh!
Koushiro took the lead in launching the attack. With brisk steps, he quickly approached Xi Li. He raised the bamboo knife in his hand and slashed towards Xi Li's face.
In front of a kendo master like Koushiro, there is no difference between a bamboo sword and a real sword.
Bamboo swords can also produce the same cutting effects as real swords.
The air was torn apart, making a harsh buzzing sound, the bamboo knife drew a silver arc, and a dangerous aura spread out.
Xi Li quickly raised his head back, and at the same time raised his hand and drew out the knife.
The move in Koushiro's hand changed, he stepped forward quickly, went around to Xili's side, changed into a stab, and pierced Xili's waist with one sword.
But this time, Xili didn't choose to dodge, and directly stretched out his hand to grab Koushiro's bamboo sword.
Lift your foot and kick sideways.
What seemed like a normal side kick was surprisingly powerful. Koushiro's pupils shrank slightly. He wanted to draw the sword and retreat, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not get the bamboo sword back from the Bull Demon King's hand.
When a swordsman gives up his sword, it undoubtedly indicates defeat.
But if you don't let go, you will definitely be completely kicked by this terrifying kick.
boom!
With a muffled sound, Koushiro's body flew out like a cannonball again, smashing the wooden door and smashing into the room.
Xili reacted after the kick.
I subconsciously raised my foot...
emmm...
Although he entered the arena with a bamboo sword, he never said anything about sword competition, right?
"That's it."
Xili threw away the bamboo knife in his hand and ended the battle very simply.
It was easy to see from the brief fight that if it was a pure swordsmanship competition, the bamboo sword in his hand would probably be knocked down in the first round.
If it were a fight, Koushiro was no match for him.
"teacher?!"
Hearing a huge rumbling sound, Zoro woke up suddenly.
He quickly ran into the room and found Koushiro.
Koushiro climbed up from the pile of rotten boards and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.
He looked at Zoro with soft eyes. After so many years, the once hairy brat has now grown up.
Sauron is not only his devoted disciple, but also like a son.
Koushiro originally hoped that Zoro would inherit his kendo gym.
But he knew that Sauron had his own goals.
"Your foundation is already very solid, but what you lack is actual combat experience." Koushiro said seriously for the last time, "The outside world is very dangerous, but you have the ability to protect yourself."
"My original intention was to let you hone your character for two years."
"Now there is such an opportunity..."
"Go and see the vast sea."
Koushiro said sincerely.
For a moment, Zoro felt mixed feelings in his heart, and countless scenes flashed through his mind, entering the Isshin Dojo for the first time, fighting Kuina for the first time...
Sauron is not a procrastinator. With his talent and hard work, he has already had the ability to go to sea.
It's just that Koushiro always asked him to be eighteen years old before he could go to sea.
Now that the Bull Demon King appears, Koushiro changes his mind.
This was also an opportunity for Zoro. He helped Koushiro stand up, then bent his knees and knelt on the ground, formally bidding farewell to Koushiro.
When Xili saw this, he left first, leaving time and space to the master and apprentice.
…
The port of Shuangyue Village is a very, very small port.
There are only a few small fishing boats moored on the coast.
A young man stood in front of the port with three swords on his waist and a huge black sword on his back.
"It's not impossible for me to join the Bull Demon King Pirates, but if you block my way to becoming the world's greatest swordsman, then don't blame my sword for being rude."
"Ambitious."
Xi Li gave a faint compliment, saying that no one could explain the vastness of the world to a frog in a well.
Now Zoro can't even take one of Hawkeye's moves, no matter how much he says, it's all nonsense.
Some things are better experienced personally.
Coincidentally, there will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Sauron to experience the world's top battle.
"Let's go, you are responsible for rowing."
Seeli jumped on a small boat and greeted.
Next, we will find an uninhabited island to wait for Kaido's arrival, and teach Zoro the Haki of knowledge and Haki and the Haki of weapons.
