My little brothers are all big guys

The two of them were having a good time.

In the living room of the dojo residence, Koshiro and Ivan were drinking tea.

Perona was holding Kuina's hand, and was actually teaching her how to dress.

Zoro and the three kids were playing together. It was rare to have boys of the same age, and they seemed to have nothing to talk about.

Especially Luffy's funny nature made the shy Zoro laugh, and brought them closer.

Koshiro talked with Ivan, and the two sides also exchanged some kendo experiences.

He took out the family heirloom sword and the Dao Ichimonji for Ivan to watch.

"Good sword."

One of the twenty-one great swords, the handle and scabbard are white, simple and plain, and the forging process is extremely precise.

This sword was made by the famous craftsman, Shimotsuki Saburo, who is Koshiro's father.

Ivan held the Wado Ichimonji and waved it a few times. Suddenly, he saw the stairs of Koshiro's house and seemed to remember something.

With a thought, he swung the sword with a sword.

Snap, the stairs to the second floor of Koshiro's house were cut off.

There was a loud noise, and everyone looked over and saw that the stairs were broken.

"Ah, why are the stairs broken?" Zoro asked puzzled.

Ivan smiled awkwardly: "Mr. Koshiro, I'm very sorry that I was tempted to use a good sword and caused you trouble."

"Well, I'll compensate you."

Although he was surprised and felt very strange, Koshiro's attitude was still very gentle.

He smiled and said, "It's just a small matter, not worth a few dollars, Lieutenant General Ivan, don't take it to heart."

Ivan brought the Wado Ichimonji to the other party, and took off his sword Moko and handed it to him for viewing.

Koshiro first put the Wado Ichimonji on the table, and took Moko with both hands with a serious attitude.

The scabbard is made of black metal. Holding the handle, Koshiro felt the fierceness coming from the blade.

Slowly pulled it out, the blade was black and the cold light flowed.

"It's a black sword. This kind of sword design seems to be more clever than the traditional design."

"It's amazing. It seems to have its own will and is resisting me." Koshiro said in shock.

Kuina and Zoro hurried over, staring at Moko with burning eyes.

Zoro asked: "Master, what black sword? Does the sword have will?"

Perona and the three little ones also pricked up their ears to listen.

Koshiro put Moko into the scabbard, looking at the eager eyes of his daughter and disciples, not wanting them to be too ambitious.

"It's too early for you."

The children were a little disappointed, but Kuina was a little excited: "Master Ivan, can you show me your swordsmanship?"

Koushiro was about to speak, but Ivan answered: "Yes."

Then, a group of people came to the grove on the back mountain.

Not only Kuina and Zoro, but Perona and the three children were also looking forward to it. They hadn't seen the eldest brother take action for a long time.

Facing the grove, Ivan stood in the front, his hand on the hilt, and everyone's eyes were fixed on his hand.

Clang, the knife was not unsheathed, and it trembled. Ivan only unsheathed half of the knife, and a cold light flashed, and then he put it back immediately.

His speed was not particularly fast, and everyone except Koshiro was confused.

However, a tree was cut in half, and the cut was smooth and neat.

The children walked over to see and were all stunned.

Kuina murmured: "It's amazing, the knife is not even unsheathed, how did he do it?"

"Nissan is so amazing!" Ace and the others cheered.

Zoro's eyes were burning: "Is this the strength of a great swordsman? What does it take to reach this point?"

At this time, Koshiro smiled elegantly: "That is the sword force. The swordsman forms his own special sword force, and any casual strike can release the sword energy."

"The tree was cut by the sword energy, you are still far from it."

Ivan smiled and asked Kuina and Zoro: "What do you think the sword is?"

The two answered at the same time:

Kuina: "The sword is a weapon, a swordsman's partner."

Zoro: "The sword is the other half of the swordsman's life."

"Very good."

Ivan said: "No matter how you understand it, everyone has a different kendo style and a different path."

After that, he drew his sword again, this time it was completely unsheathed, and in the expectation of everyone, the blade exuded a sharp edge.

Ivan casually exerted force, and the red slash broke through the air.

Puff, puff, in the muffled sound, a large area of ​​trees in front were cut off and fell to the ground.

So strong, Kuina and Zoro looked at Ivan with stars in their eyes.

"I must work hard to become the world's number one swordsman in the future."

Kuina was not hit, but clenched her fists to encourage herself.

Zoro immediately retorted: "I should be the world's number one swordsman, you can only be second."

Kuina was indignant and made faces at him: "Lululu, I don't want it, you are defeated."

The green algae-headed Zoro was so angry that his teeth itched, but he couldn't find an excuse to refute.

However, Koshiro became very serious: "Kuina, girls can't..."

Kuina looked up and listened to her father carefully, but was interrupted halfway.

Ivan stopped him from saying: "Mr. Koshiro, I think they get along well with my sister and brother. Do you mind if I take them shopping together?"

Koshiro smiled: "Of course not."

What did his father want to say? Kuina was a little confused, so she had to plan to ask another day.

"Great, shopping, shopping." Perona was very happy.

Soon, the group arrived at the nearest town.

Perona dragged Kuina to shop, the three little ones and Zoro ate, and Ivan was the one who paid.

Passing by a weapon store, Ivan took them in, and after careful selection, he chose three knives.

In front of everyone, he gave them to Zoro.

"Really for me?" Zoro was surprised, and immediately excited.

When he first entered the weapon store, Zoro looked at the various knives, and his saliva was about to flow out. He wanted them very much, but he had no money.

With Ivan's nod of confirmation, Zoro happily hugged the three knives in his arms: "Haha, I have real knives."

Perona and the three little ones were not knife players. They were not envious, but they clamored for other gifts.

Although Kuina didn't say it, she was envious in her heart and became a little unhappy.

Ivan saw her thoughts. He didn't give her a knife because Koshiro would give her the Wado Ichimonji.

He gently stroked Kuina's head and said: "Are you unhappy because you didn't receive a gift?"

"No." Kuina pouted, her expression betrayed her.

Ivan said earnestly: "Although I didn't give you a gift, I have a few words for you."

Kuina blinked her eyes and waited quietly for his next words.

He said: "If you have a dream in your heart, then chase it bravely and don't care too much about what others say."

Guina???

Ivan continued: "If someone tells you that girls are born with irreparable differences in physical fitness and potential compared to boys."

"Girls can't become super strong, and you can't become the world's number one swordsman, what would you do?"

Ah, Kuina's little face fell into confusion and panic: "Why? How are girls worse than boys?"

"Don't be nervous!"

Ivan comforted: "Listen to me, from a general perspective, girls' physical fitness and potential are indeed not as good as boys."

"But, it's not absolute."

"Do you know the sea emperor BIG MOM, Charlotte Linlin?"

"She is a woman, and also a top strong man on the sea. Now she is ranked as the sea emperor alongside the world's strongest man Whitebeard and the strongest creature Kaido."

Kuina nodded and listened quietly, as if she was encouraged.

Ivan continued to encourage her: "Dreams and goals are your own. The future is full of uncertainty. Only when you pursue and do it, you will know the result."

"Understand?"

Kuina smiled: "I understand. I will work hard."

In fact, she was really scared because she was a girl and Ivan, a strong man, denied that she could not become the world's greatest swordsman.

Ivan also gave her a vaccination in advance. Her death actually had a foreshadowing.

She was very sad after her father Koshiro told her that girls could not reach the top of the kendo.

She cried and told Zoro about this. The two agreed that one of them would become the world's number one swordsman.

Then, she fell to her death on the stairs at home.

Why did Koshiro say that?

Now, the stairs are destroyed by Ivan, and the vaccination has been given. Next, just leave it to fate!
