Pirate Alliance

"grateful."

Qiubai reached out and took the hot soup that Ain handed over... The soup is indescribable, but there is no doubt that it can replenish heat, and then he thanked the owner of the house.

This is a house that is independent of the coast. This location is not a port, so it looks a little lonely. The house is small and very old, and there is a small courtyard outside.

And the reason for Qiubai's thanks is that it was the other party who cut off the head of the sea king with a sword, and rescued the two people who were killed ashore.

That kind of condensed sword qi that can be released from a long distance is enough to show that the identity of the person in front of him should be extraordinary.

"Please use, although the taste is not very good, but this is what you need the most. Although this Balon Island, like many islands in the New World, has no four seasons, but if you compare it, here is this time... It should be early spring, the sea is very cold."

"It's just... I live alone, and there are no clothes for the two of you to change here."

The person who speaks doesn't seem to be very good at judging his age. His face is almost old, but his body is much younger. But if he wants to say what is most striking about him, it should be some inexplicable hairstyle.

His physical condition seems to be not very good, and he always coughs lightly between speeches.

"No, I'm fortunate to be saved." Qiubai expressed his gratitude again, and then drank the contents of the bowl. There was a time when he cared about the taste of food, but it could never be now.

There is also a stove in this room, which can gradually dry the clothes on the two young people while dissipating the chill on their bodies... Qiu Bai is only wearing a white shirt and black trousers. He was wearing half-height boots. He originally had a black tie, but he probably fell into the sea long ago.

"Your courage in protecting your companions is very admirable. Although the sea kings are common in this sea, this is not the same as being able to face a direct attack." The man praised again.

This is also the direct reason why he chose to help.

Qiubai shook his head and did not respond to the other party's expectations. He sent the empty bowl forward, and Ain took it back again... When there were others, she didn't say much.

Qiubai sat cross-legged, put his hands on his knees casually, then raised his head slightly and looked directly at the person in front of him - this seemed a little rude.

"It's insignificant compared to me, but... I just didn't expect to see a 'big man' like your Excellency on this island."

The master was stunned for a moment, and then asked back, "Do you know me?"

"No, but I can confirm your identity. Even on a closed island like my hometown, I have heard of your legend, so what I see now can probably be regarded as a 'living legend' already."

"I have no way of confirming your identity based on your appearance and posture, but I know the knife on your waist. After all, it is a 'famous weapon' that every swordsman wants to start with - the chaotic blade, the big reverse T-shaped, and the big cut first. Hi, the legendary sword of one of the 21 Great Swordsmen, and the national treasure of Wano, the Black Sword Autumn Water."

"Then the identity of its holder is self-evident, the legendary samurai, the great swordsman of 'Dragon Slaying', the samurai Ryoma." This is a very simple speculation, because the sword will not change hands, it is difficult to imagine Someone could take his saber from such a swordsman...while he was alive.

"Am I such a celebrity?" Ryoma did not deny his identity. He straightened his body and returned to a normal sitting posture. Then, he pressed the upper part of the scabbard with his left hand, and lifted the famous sword Qiushui slightly forward.

This is not to make Qiubai appreciate the sword more closely, but... Sitting and hitting straight, Ryoma is in a standard "Iai" posture.

"You said just now that this is a famous weapon that all swordsmen want? So, is it also your hunting target?"

The swordsman's hands are very distinctive. Qiubai's identity will not be hidden from the eyes of people like Ryoma... He is also a swordsman, so let's just say it.

"Do not."

I just didn't expect that Qiu Bai would decisively give a negative answer. This has nothing to do with whether it will anger Ryoma, because he doesn't need such a sword.

"Although I also hold a sword, I can only use my own sword, and I don't need anything from others."

Qiubai stared at Longma with a strange look. The other party did have what he wanted, but rather than saying that he needed a sword, what he wanted more was...

Sword skills.

Whether it is by chance or fate, it is not a high probability event to meet a swordsman of this level. This is Qiubai's true luck.

Ryoma looked back at him and felt a little strange, because he felt that this young man was telling the truth, but few swordsmen turned a blind eye to the famous sword - although he said he had his own sword, but his hands were empty. It must have been lost in the sea.

Then, Qiu Bai began to talk about himself:

"I was born on a small island called 'Whale Island' not far from this island. My father is a hunter, and this year has been..." Speaking of this, he suddenly got stuck, and then turned his eyes to Ain.

"15 years old."

Fortunately, Qiu Bai thought it was irrelevant, and Ain still remembered it very clearly.

"I'm 15 years old this year. I have always grown up in that small village. If it was bigger, the island would be the whole world for me. Most of the swords were taught by myself. The identity of a swordsman... is also a self-proclaimed one. of."

"But after my father passed away, I decided to go to sea, in order to pursue the ultimate in kendo."

Qiu Bai's statement made Ain lowered his head calmly... He didn't say that when he went to sea a few days ago.

There is no doubt that this statement of his is tendentious and purposeful.

Great Swordsman Ryoma... If it wasn't for the shocking blow from before, and the irreplaceable famous sword around his waist, no one would be able to connect the two identities.

Ryoma nodded, Qiubai's words are nothing to doubt, this is a very common and common sense thing... Because this is the new world, going from one island to another is like crossing the sky.

"But it seems that the luck is not very good, and the storm was encountered just after going to sea."

"Self-taught sword..." Ryoma repeated in a low voice, Whale Island is indeed a small island nearby, and it is impossible to have a famous teacher with the conditions there.

"Since the 'One Piece' incident, there have been fewer and fewer people talking about swords. Since it's a self-taught sword, are you interested in a contest? It just so happens that I haven't moved my body for a long time."

Ryoma suddenly said this.

For him, even cutting a sea king can't even count as moving his body, but what about training with Qiubai? What's more, he was only interested in this young man.

"Is it alright?" Qiu Bai asked expectantly, the other party's suggestion was right out of his mind. Or Ryoma is really a bit idle, but he doesn't want to let go of this opportunity. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Considering the strength of the two sides in swordsmanship and the difference in strength, it is actually a bit too flattering for Qiubai to talk about a contest. This is clearly a guide.

"The words of the bamboo sword..." Ryoma began to look around, he remembered where there were several bamboo swords.

"No, if it's a fight, I hope the real sword is better." As Qiu Bai said, he raised his right arm, and then grasped it with one hand, and a sword was placed in his palm.

"This? Are you... an ability person? But just now..." Ryoma felt a little old and confused, as if the other party had just swam a few laps in the sea.

Qiubai just smiled, "It's a little different, I'm not a capable person, I just hid my sword in a strange pocket."

His explanations were inexcusable, but Ryoma could no longer ask about this kind of thing.

"Forget it, can you show me this sword?"

As a swordsman, Ryoma valued the sword itself more than whether he was capable or not.

"Of course." Qiu Bai generously handed him the knife in his hand.

The appearance of this knife looks very ordinary, but the cold light reflected by the blade seems to indicate that it is not an ordinary knife. It may not be comparable to the famous knife of Qiushui, but it is also a superior work.

"The quality is very good."

"This knife is called 'Thousand Knives, Crack'." Qiu Bai added aside.

"Thousand knives?"

"...Because this is a mass product, there are a thousand such knives in total."

Does the name of the knife have anything to do with the output? Although this knife is not carefully crafted in appearance, it is actually difficult to think of it as a mass product based on the quality of the blade.

Also... Did Qiubai hide a thousand "thousand knives" in his pocket?
