One Piece: Beginning as the Monkey King

The two of them were so busy that they had to wait for the next few days.

Koushiro watched Bardock and his men disembark, thinking about their identities in his mind. One thing was certain: they were definitely not local forces in the East China Sea.

Since the news about the Golden Country had been out for some time, and Koushiro himself had not paid much attention to it, he did not recognize Bardock and his men for a while.

Suddenly, his eyes fixed on the black knife "Autumn Water" on Bardock's waist.

"What is this?"

Koushiro unconsciously took two steps forward, because he subconsciously wanted to get closer to the knife to take a look.

In fact, with his strength, even if the distance was not short, he could clearly see the details of the black knife "Autumn Water". Needless to say, that was the national treasure of Wano Country, the sword of the legendary dragon-slaying swordsman Shimotsuki Ryoma. He still knew about the sword from the booklet left by his father, but shouldn't it be in Wano Country?

With doubts, Koshiro greeted Bardock and the others, "Hello, welcome to Shimotsuki Village. Is this sword "Autumn Water", one of the twenty-one great swords?"

Koshiro didn't care about being rude, he really wanted to know why "Autumn Water" appeared outside Wano Country? And why did it appear here?

Bardock nodded and said, "Yes, your vision is admirable. You can actually see that my "Autumn Water" has not been unsheathed yet!"

Koshiro got confirmation and sighed, "This is not a place to talk. If you don't mind, please come to my humble home for a chat."

This statement was exactly what Bardock wanted, so he agreed.

As they walked along, Bardock found that the architectural style of Shimotsuki Village was very similar to that of Wano Country, but there were also buildings with the characteristics of the East China Sea, until a kendo hall appeared in front of them, Isshin Dojo, which was a pure Wano Country style.

On the way, everyone exchanged names with Koshiro, so Koshiro had recognized that Bardock and his team were the protagonists who discovered the Golden Country. He therefore had a guess, did Bardock and his team go to Wano Country and take away the famous sword "Autumn Water"?

But one thing is certain, they are not enemies now.

Entering the Isshin Dojo, Bardock was a little surprised. He found that Kuina was still alive at this time and was practicing swordsmanship alone. The sword she was holding should be Wado Ichimonji, which was very strict and had a solid foundation in swordsmanship. Her strength was not weak.

Kuina found that Koshiro brought people in, stopped practicing, and saluted Koshiro, "Father!"

Koshiro smiled with satisfaction, "Kuina, there are guests at home, you should take a rest first."

"Yes, father." Kuina bowed her head and responded. At this time, she found the sword on Bardock's waist and asked Bardock, "Are you a swordsman?"

"I guess so." Bardock replied.

Kuina was puzzled, "What do you mean by 'count as'?"

"I use a sword, but I'm not a pure swordsman. Swordsmanship is just one of my abilities."

In Bardock's eyes, Hawkeye is a swordsman. He has too many abilities and is only a swordsman.

Kuina nodded, not quite understanding. Koshiro understood immediately.

"Bardock, if I remember correctly, 'Autumn Water' should be the national treasure of Wano Country. How did it appear in your hands?"

At this moment, when they arrived at the dojo, Koshiro asked the puzzled question immediately.

"Actually, this is related to the changes in Wano Country..."

Bardock briefly talked about Kaido's entry into Wano Country, Moria's failure to challenge Kaido, and his escape from Wano Country alone, bringing out "Autumn Water", and he snatched "Autumn Water" from Moria.

Of course, Bardock did not mention the fact that Ryuma's body was also taken out by Moria and made into a zombie. Ryoma is Koshiro's ancestor. If he told him that, I don't know what the consequences would be.

"Has such a big thing happened in Wano Country? Kaido, the beast, even in the East China Sea, I often hear his bad name, and I don't know what the people of Wano Country are doing now?"

Although Koshiro was born in the East China Sea, his impression of Wano Country came more from his father's description, but when he heard Kaido entering Wano Country, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Among them, he was more worried about the Shimotsuki family, the same clan in Wano Country.

"It's hard to say specifically, but it's definitely not easy." Bardock didn't say much.

"This..." Koshiro suddenly didn't know how to start. He wanted to take back the "Autumn Water" in Bardock's hand, but he understood how attractive the famous sword was to people like them, and "Autumn Water" was also a black sword.

After a pause, Koshiro still said, "Bardock,

Actually, 'Autumn Water' is the sword that my ancestors carried with them. If possible, I hope to exchange it back for 'Autumn Water'.

"Oh? I wonder how you want to exchange it, Koshiro?" Bardock asked curiously.

"How about a famous sword that is also ranked among the twenty-first great swords?" Koshiro said, but his eyes were looking at the Wado Ichimonji in Kuina's hand. Theoretically, this sword should be left to Kuina, but now she can't take care of it.

"Not enough, Autumn Water is a black sword. If you tell me how to make a black sword in Wano Country, and the special skills of Wano Country Ryuo, I will agree to the exchange. "

Since Bardock awakened his Armament Haki, he has been trying to refine his own black sword and black stick, but there is no effect at all. He doesn't know if his method is right. In order to avoid wasting time, he decided to learn from Koshiro.

As for the skills of Ryuo, they are used to fill in the gaps or find the direction. His Armament Haki is not weak now, but he doesn't know how to develop and use it next.

Koshiro agreed without hesitation. Compared with the special meaning of "Autumn Water", the secret of the black sword and the skills of Ryuo are nothing.

"Here you go! "

Bardock was very straightforward. He took off the "Autumn Water" and threw it to Koshiro.

"Autumn Water" is always a black sword made by others. Bardock prefers to make black swords and black sticks by himself.

Koshiro took the Wado Ichimonji under Kuina's hazy eyes. Kuina was extremely reluctant, but still let go.

Bardock took the Wado Ichimonji and tried the feel of it. It was excellent, worthy of being one of the twenty-one great swords.

"If you want to make a black sword,..."

Koshiro told Bardock the secret of the Shimotsuki family to make black swords and the skills of Ryuo.

It turns out that it is not enough to infuse the weapon with armed color domineering. If it is just like this, the black sword will not be so Rare. To refine a black sword requires the purest fighting will. It is easiest to refine a black sword in a battle with a strong enemy. Otherwise, the difficulty will be many times higher.

The skills of Wano Country Ryusakura are basically included in the flow skills of Bardock's Armament Haki. Only some of the application skills provide Bardock with a little idea.

After the matter came to an end, Bardock proposed the idea of ​​exchanging swordsmanship. Koshiro also had this idea, and they hit it off.

However, Koshiro hopes to wait until his disciple Zoro comes back before competing. He wants to improve Zoro's horizons.

They waited and waited. Usually at this time, Zoro should have arrived long ago.

"Excuse me, your disciple is not lost, right?" Enel was impatient and said sarcastically.

Unexpectedly, Koshiro and Kuina looked at him in shock, "How did you know?"

"Huh? "

This time, the others also showed strange expressions. Shimotsuki Village is not big. How can someone get lost in such a place?

Koshiro explained, "My disciple has a poor sense of direction. No, he simply has no sense of direction. Not to mention when he is alone, sometimes he will get lost if he is not careful when walking with others."

Now, everyone is very interested in this person with poor sense of direction and wants to meet this weirdo as soon as possible.

"Robin, please help find someone to guide him here quickly. Yes, a child with green hair. "Bardock arranged.

If Enelu goes to look for Zoro, maybe he can find him quickly, and then Zoro will get lost again. Enelu will definitely bring Zoro back. That scene, tut tut. It's more harmonious to let Robin find him.

Robin raised her arm and activated the fruit ability. Not long after, her expression became very wonderful, as if she had never seen such a magical person.

Even with Robin's guidance, Zoro still took the wrong road many times, which made Robin doubt whether he did it on purpose. After a few times, she realized that she thought too much. Zoro was really a person with a poor sense of direction.

The footsteps came from far away, and with Robin's help, Zoro finally arrived.
