Although Zoro asked for a while who this "Mr. Death" was, he did not take it to heart.
The reappearance of a deceased relative is undoubtedly something worth celebrating.
After a celebration, the three of them returned to their rooms.
"Mr. Kenpachi, can I really become a great swordsman?"
At night, Guina couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
Lying on the familiar bed, the girl tossed and turned.
"Why not."
Shangquan is now in an energy body state composed entirely of spirit sons, and has no need to sleep.
"Women are naturally much worse than men in terms of physical fitness..."
Guina's voice became smaller and smaller. This problem had been bothering her for many years.
"Let me tell you a story. This person should be considered my senior. No, he should be my master."
Seeing Kuina struggling with this, Shangquan chuckled.
"Kenpachi-san's master..."
Guina turned around and the two met their eyes.
"Yes. Although I haven't officially become a master, there should be no problem in saying that she is my master."
"Kenpachi-san's master, he must be very powerful."
Guina stood up slightly and asked curiously.
"Well, she is indeed very strong. After all, she is the woman who created the name "Kenpachi"."
Sitting on the window edge, Shangquan looked up at the night sky.
"Kenpachi? Isn't that your name?"
"No, Kenpachi is a title. Her name is Unohana Retsu, but I prefer to call her "Yachiryu"."
"Eight thousand flow?"
Kuina repeated it, savoring this somewhat strange name.
"Many years ago, Senior Maozhihua claimed to have mastered all the kendo schools in the world, and since then he has called himself the "Eight Thousand Ryu". The title "Kenpachi" also evolved and was passed down on this basis."
"Does that mean "Yachen-ryu" and "Kenpachi" are both the same titles?"
"That's right. Only by defeating the previous generation of Kenpachi, or the previous generation of Kenpachi voluntarily abdicating, can you get the title of "Kenpachi". For example, I defeated the tenth generation of Kenpachi, Onishi."
Nodding, Shangquan fell into memories of the past again.
Who would have thought that the eleventh generation Kenpachi, who was famous in Soul Society, would be defeated because he could not bear his own power.
"Then, to obtain the title of "Yachi-ryu" does it also require defeating the previous "Yachi-ryu"?"
Guina asked seriously.
She thought that Yachi-ryu, like Kenpachi, was a title that was passed down forever.
"Ah? Hahahaha."
Shangquan burst out laughing when he heard this.
The name "Yachiryu" is actually more like the black history created by Unohana Retsu's second disease.
"Isn't it possible?"
Seeing Shangquan's reaction, Guina was a little confused.
"No, no, of course. Come on, I'm optimistic about you."
Saying that, Shangquan gave a thumbs up to Kuina.
"You must be hiding something from me, Mr. Death."
"No~ there is~ oh."
"snort."
Guina pouted in dissatisfaction, it was too obvious that she was fake.
"Well, there is indeed some."
After thinking for a while, Shangquan decided to leave the right of choice to Kuina herself.
"In the future I know, Roronoa Zoro will become a pirate."
"Pirate? Why did Zoro become a pirate?"
Upon hearing the news, Guina sat up directly from the bed.
"Because Sauron met a man who was enough to trust him with his faith. In that future, they will be the protagonists of that era."
"Then Zoro also became a villain?"
In Kuina's opinion, pirates are a group of extremely vicious thugs.
"No, at least I don't think so. Their group should be closer to adventurers."
"That's good."
Kuina let out a sigh of relief, it would be okay if Zoro didn't turn into a vicious pirate.
"Whether a group of people are pirates or not depends mainly on how the people in the World Government define it. In fact, it may not have anything to do with what they do."
"In that future, will Sauron become a great swordsman?"
Kuina's attention was still on Zoro.
Whether it was pirates or the navy, she had not had much contact with them.
So whether Zoro is a pirate or a marine is not that critical to Kuina now.
"Not yet, but it should happen."
"In that future, I will be completely dead."
Without warning, Guina suddenly asked this question.
"Hmm. Your resurrection is a variable."
Kamizumi told the actual situation truthfully and quietly waited for Kuina to make a decision.
"You mean that now that I'm resurrected, it will change the future, right?"
Kuina is a smart person and quickly guessed what Shangquan meant.
"Um."
Shangquan nodded.
Luffy and the others didn't pose much of a threat to civilians, so naturally they couldn't be compared to ordinary pirates.
"Master, I have something to ask you."
The moonlight shone on the bed through the window, and Guina slowly spoke.
With Mr. Kenpachi's strength, there is no need to lie to yourself.
"Master, what exactly is "justice"? Should I be a pirate or a navy?"
"Isn't this very simple? These two big characters can be written clearly on the navy's cloak."
"Ahem. No more joking, be more serious this time."
Seeing Kuina's serious expression, Shangquan finally became serious.
"But isn't your dream to become a great swordsman? Do you actually care about "justice"?"
"You need a target to swing a sword. If you do it just for yourself, you won't become stronger."
Guina replied seriously.
She had never experienced pirates burning, killing, and looting, but she had heard about it often.
In this turbulent "age of great pirates", even in the safest East China Sea, there are still people who take risks and become pirates.
"Then, the following answer only represents the opinions of the eight Shangquan swordsmen."
Jumping down from the window sill, Shangquan walked up to Kuina.
Then squat down so that their eyes are at the same level.
"Justice is here and here."
Pointing one hand to his head and the other to his heart, Shangquan gave his answer.
"Here, and here?"
Following Shangquan's movements, Kuina also raised her hand.
"Head and heart?"
"Yes, justice only exists here. Whether it is pirates or the navy, it has nothing to do with the word justice."
"There are countless pirates, and the navy is estimated to number hundreds of thousands. It is unrealistic to simply define such two huge groups as "justice" or "evil". Even if we want to make this conclusion for others,
It’s very difficult, let alone two such huge groups.”
