One Piece World Number One

Chapter 8 Luffy's Awakening

The failed Meteor lowered his head, holding the wooden sword tightly with both hands, with a look of unwillingness on his face.

Seeing the appearance of the shooting star, Anason showed that annoying smile again on his face.He stuck the wooden sword on the ground, looked at Meteor, and said in a disdainful tone: "It seems that your strength is no more than that. You are obviously two or three years older than me, but you can't even beat me."

After speaking, Anason turned and left.

Meteor lowered his head, the anger in his heart poured out like a volcanic eruption, and the hilt of the wooden sword in his hand seemed to be shattered by him.

Not only him, but the other apprentices in the Sword Dao Training Center are the same, the difference is that the anger of other apprentices has filled their eyes, as if flames are spurting from them.

The blue-haired boy didn't expect Anason to say the same thing. Isn't this a case of seeking abuse by himself?Even if the strength of the four of them is not weak, they can't stand up to all the angry apprentices in a gym.

Just when the apprentices around were about to rush out, Otto spoke.

"No one do anything, if you dare to do it, leave the Sword Dao Training Hall for me!"

"But teacher..." some apprentice wanted to argue, but was stopped by Otto's gesture.

"Our kendo training hall can't afford to lose even a frontal challenge!" Odo looked directly at all the apprentices in the kendo training hall, "If you want to vent your anger, then the apprentices in the gymnasium in half a month's time In the competition, let's use your swords to achieve it."

"Let's go." Otto said lightly.

"Thank you, Mr. Odo!" The blue-haired boy bowed deeply. He finally knew why his teacher gave Odo such a high evaluation. With such a heart, his teacher's evaluation was completely reasonable.

The blue-haired boy grabbed Anason with his hands, and then hurriedly left the Kendo Training Hall with the other two.

Seeing Anason and the other apprentices from the gray rock dojo leave, the anger of the apprentices at the Kendo Training Center did not dissipate, but intensified, especially when they looked at the shooting star standing with his head bowed in the middle of the square.

All the goodwill towards Meteor disappeared from everyone's hearts, because if it wasn't for Meteor, the Kendo Academy would not have encountered such a scene, and would not have suffered such shame.

None of the apprentices will remember that Meteor has only practiced for a few months, and he is also the apprentice with the shortest training time in the Kendo Academy.

"Meteor?" Odo asked worriedly.

Meteor raised his head, looked at Odo with hollow eyes, bowed, and said, "Teacher Odo, I want to go out first."

"Well, let's go out." Odo knew that such a blow needs to be released outside.

"Thank you, teacher." The wooden sword in Meteor's hand fell to the ground, and he walked out of the Kendo Training Hall slowly, and walked towards the sea.

Seeing the eyes of the apprentices full of hatred for the meteor, Odo's eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "If you have time to hate the meteor, you might as well spend all your time on training. Remember, you only have In half a month, I hope you can win back the honor for our Kendo Academy in the Gym Apprentice Competition, otherwise, the shame we have suffered will not only be like this."

After being told by Odo, many apprentices clenched their fists, and some old apprentices immediately rushed back to start training even more frantically.

Seeing the appearance of these apprentices, Odo breathed a sigh of relief, and finally shifted the attention of the apprentices to other places, and the rest was up to Meteor to overcome the blow caused by setbacks.

After walking for half an hour, the meteor came to the beach.

Looking at the endless sea, with the salty sea breeze blowing, Meteor's face did not change at all. The blow of failure made him feel really uncomfortable, especially because of his failure, which brought to the Kendo Training Hall. The shame was even more difficult for him to let go.

"Europe!"

A shooting star sounded very familiar. He subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound, and a small figure entered his eyes, but because of his low mood, his vision was not so clear.

After the little figure shouted, it seemed that he had discovered his existence, and then hurried over.

When that figure ran close, Meteor could see clearly that it was Luffy.

Speaking of the past few months, because he often went to the banquet bar to buy wine for Odo, he gradually became acquainted with Luffy.As long as Luffy sees Meteor now, he will take Meteor outside to play for a while, which also makes Meteor return to the training hall a little late, but Meteor doesn't mind this, because playing with the cute Luffy, in his opinion Also a nice way to relax.

But now Meteor is not in this mood, so he lowered his head again.

Full of excitement, Luffy ran up to Meteor, and when he saw Meteor's appearance, the smile on his face disappeared immediately, and he asked suspiciously, "Brother Meteor, what's wrong with you?"

"I have nothing to do, Luffy. Go and play by yourself." Meteor replied without raising his head.

Seeing Meteor like this, Luffy was even more worried, and he sat down next to Meteor.

"Brother Meteor, what's the matter with you?" Lu Fei worried, he had never seen such a meteor before, he was too depressed, not as cheerful as before.

"It's nothing to say." Meteor looked at Luffy with a forced smile.

But when Luffy met Meteor's eyes, he was shocked, because he saw that there was no focus in Meteor's pupils, and it was scary empty.

"Brother Meteor, why, why are you like this?" Although Luffy felt scared because of the emptiness in Meteor's eyes, but he didn't understand the reason, but he instinctively felt that Meteor should not be allowed to go on like this.

"It's all right! You go!" Meteor yelled at Luffy, his angry face made Luffy cry in fright.

Luffy has never seen Meteor like this before. He can't imagine that Meteor, who would always face him with a smile no matter how much trouble he made, would actually yell at him.

Luffy bit his lower lip tightly, tears streaming down his face, but he didn't leave, just staring at the shooting star.

"Didn't you hear? Let me go!" Meteor pushed Luffy to the ground with his hands.

Luffy got up, cried and shouted: "I'm not leaving! I don't want the shooting star that Miss Makino said is worth learning from, to become what it is now."

"So what if I don't become like this, I can't even win against an apprentice who is two or three years younger than me, and I have caused the Kendo Academy to be ashamed because of me, what do you think I should become!" Meteor said on the side Roaring, tears kept streaming from his eyes.

"I don't know what to do, I just know that what I want is the shooting star who can deal with it with a smile no matter what, and will not give up on himself. Besides, grandpa once said that as a man, failure is not terrible, the terrible thing is that there is no The courage to face failure. As long as you fall down, you can get up there!" Luffy clenched his fists and roared loudly with his eyes closed.

"Failure is not terrible, what is terrible is not having the courage to face failure?" "As long as you fall down, you can just get up there?"

Meteor kept repeating these few words in his mouth, and as he spoke, his empty eyes gradually became brighter.

Yes, failure is not terrible, as long as you fall down, you can get up there, isn't that all right?

Looking at that Luffy who was still crying, Meteor laughed at himself in his heart. As a young man in the 21st century, he still needs a three-year-old child to enlighten him. He really sucks.

"Luffy!"

"Huh?" Luffy opened his eyes and looked at Meteor, which had recovered its former radiance. His eyes opened wider and wider. Then, Xiaorong finally appeared on his face. He strode towards Meteor and hugged Meteor directly. Hold the waist of the meteor.

Meteor also smiled. He touched Luffy's head and said softly, "Thank you, Luffy."

Hearing Meteor's thanks, Luffy rubbed the back of his head with his right hand and laughed.

"Do you want me to play with you?" Meteor smiled.

Hearing that Meteor wanted to play with him, Luffy's eyes lit up suddenly: "Okay! Okay!"

Luffy took Meteor's hand and started running on the beach.
