One Piece: My Spirit

Under the moonlight, Sauron and Guina looked directly at each other. This was the first time the two confronted each other with real knives. Knowing the danger, they became more and more cautious.

However, when both of them seemed to feel a trace of aura, they rushed towards each other at the same time. Zoro still used the two-knife style to attack first, but he absorbed the lesson from last time to give himself some leeway. In the blink of an eye, the two had fought for more than ten rounds.

However, Sauron's practice time in kendo was always too short. Many problems have been exposed in this kind of actual combat. One is the physical strength consumed by the second sword, and the other is the gap in the foundation.

Every time Kuina swings a knife to attack, defend with a knife, and the grasp of distance, advance and retreat seems to be integrated into her bones. Everything is so natural and smooth. What's more, Kuina learned from Shire that she must have the awareness of anticipating the enemy and taking the lead.

Although Kuina often beats Shire, it is not easy, and sometimes she even fights very aggrieved. This is not to say how powerful Shire is or how superb her skills are, but Shire can always be half a step or even a step faster than herself, "predict the enemy's opportunity", this is the biggest gain Kuina has learned from Shire.

Although a kendo genius can react instantly in battle, just like Zoro now, relying on subconscious intuition to avoid Kuina's attack, but at this time the rhythm of the battle has fallen into Kuina's hands. Although extraordinary talent can push you at critical moments, it doesn't always work.

With Kuina's sudden backhand crosscut, she instantly knocked down the knife in Sauron's left hand, and then, relentlessly, bullied her body with another slash that knocked out the knife in Sauron's other hand!

Sauron, who lost his center of gravity for a while, fell to the ground. At the same time, Kuina inserted the word "Hedao" next to Sauron's head. With the strands of Sauron's hair falling, the battle was also declared over.

"Huh~huh, my 2001st victory!"

Kuina smiled while calming her inner breath.

It's just that what Kuina didn't expect at this time was that Sauron, who was always so strong and persevering, had tears in his eyes at this time, and he vented unwillingly:

"Damn! Damn! Why. I'm so unwilling!!!"

After hearing Sauron's words, Kuina seemed to be touched by something deep in her heart, and suddenly smiled bitterly:

"Heh, not reconciled? Heh. You actually said that you are not reconciled? Seriously, I am the one who is most unwilling!"

The more she spoke, the more choked up Kuina's voice became. Sauron looked at Kuina with tears in her eyes in surprise. This was the first time that Sauron saw such a weak Kuina, and he was at a loss for a while.

"When girls grow up, they just can't beat boys. I will be caught up by you soon."

Kuina looked up at the moon, her face full of unwillingness:
"Don't you always say Sauron? Are you going to become the world's number one swordsman?
But... but my father told me that a girl cannot be number one in the world!Girls cannot be number one in the world! ! ! "

In the last sentence, Kuina almost vented all the unwillingness and anger in her heart.

Then Kuina said with a miserable smile on her face: "I understand, I have understood this kind of thing a long time ago, but I just can't be reconciled!"

Speaking of this, Kuina couldn't help but think again of the conversation between her father and teaching assistant Kazuhiko who overheard outside the room tonight, but Koshiro and Kazuhiko said:

"The female swordsman has a huge obstacle. Judging from the current situation, it is still impossible for Kuina to inherit the dojo."

And these words happened to be heard by Kuina outside the door, and the doubts that had been hidden in her heart seemed to have some kind of answer, but Kuina didn't want to give up, so Kuina rushed to the door and said unwillingly to her father:
"I will definitely become the strongest swordsman in the world!"

But what Kuina didn't expect was that Koshiro sighed after being silent for a moment: "Guina, girls can't be the strongest."

Kuina never expected that her father would say such words. It was her father who killed her dream with his own hands, and at that moment, Kuina seemed to hear the sound of something important in her heart shattering.

If Kuina had vaguely noticed Koshiro's intentions a long time ago, then what happened tonight was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

It was also for this reason that Kuina's mood fluctuated so much tonight.

"Zoro, it's great that you're a boy!" Kuina looked at Sauron and said enviously, but stopped in the middle of speaking, and Kuina touched her breasts: "But I'm not! And my breasts are starting to grow, if I were a boy."

But at this time Sauron interrupted Kuina angrily:

"Guina! You are too cunning! You have won me, but you still cried and said that to me! You are too much! You are my imaginary enemy!"

"Sauron."

"It doesn't matter if he is a man or a woman! When I beat you one day, will you still say that? It seems to be saying that I didn't win you by strength at all!
I trained so hard just to defeat you, don't I look like an idiot?So what is my year all about? !How can you say such a thing! "

"I..." Facing Sauron, who was both familiar and unfamiliar at the moment, Kuina was speechless for a moment.

Sauron came to Kuina: "Guina, you have to promise me! One day, one of us will become the world's number one swordsman!"

Saying that, Sauron stretched out his right hand and came to Kuina: "Let's compete! Who can become the world's number one swordsman first!"

Kuina stared blankly at the right hand that Sauron handed over, and then suddenly broke into a smile: "You idiot! You can't even beat me!"

"But. I promise you!!!"

Said that Kuina and Sauron held hands together, and this was the oath and agreement between Kuina and Sauron about their dreams.

After Sauron's trouble, Kuina vented all the suppressed emotions in her heart. At the same time, she suddenly understood that it was not her father who killed her dream, but it was just an excuse for her to escape, because the one who killed her dream was not others, but herself!
Kuina, who has figured everything out, is no longer confused, and at the same time, my heart will never be shaken again!
