Pirate's Swordsman

After leaving the Principality of Sambia, the Gale continued sailing in the sea.

Since I got a recording pointer that was fully charged with magnetism from Hill, the route this time was much more stable, and there were no sneaky stalkers behind me, which was really a lot of relief.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed.

In the early morning, in the gentle sea breeze, Xia Nuo sat cross-legged on the corner of the bow of the boat, playing with the hilt of Lake Toya's sword with his right hand, a smile on his face, and seemed to be in a good mood.

Generally speaking, this battle in the Principality of Sambia was quite fruitful. Not only did the wind-controlling swordsmanship improve to a high level, but the domineering power that was originally in the trial stage was also used in actual combat for the first time, making Xia Nuo after the battle. The process of mastering the armed color Haki is greatly advanced.

Up to now, Xia Nuo can not only perfectly surround the sword with the domineering force of the armed color, but can even initially achieve the hardening of the armed color. However, the duration does not last more than one minute, so the actual combat significance is not great for the time being, and he has to continue to practice for a long time.

As for the domineering power of seeing and hearing colors, Xia Nuo also started to try to explore and exercise a few days ago. Unexpectedly, his training progress in this aspect was actually smoother than that of armed colors. In two days, he could preliminarily predict some slower speeds. attack, I don’t know if this is related to his long-term immersion in swordsmanship and his outstanding agility attribute.

"It seems that after some time, Yuebu can be put on the training schedule."

Looking at the distant horizon, Xia Nuo pondered slightly, probably making some calculations in his mind.

The remains of the Sixth Naval Style obtained from Kanser had repeated conflicting effects with the shaving and front-stepping slashes, and the Lan Jiao was simply not as good as his sword energy slashing. Without the training methods for the other three styles, he was defeated. In other words, it is true that only the Moon Step, a physical technique that allows him to stand in the air, has actual combat value.

"Brother Xia Nuo, it's time to have breakfast."

While he was deep in thought, Kira's shout suddenly came from behind. Xia Nuo came back to his senses, responded with a smile, put away Lake Toya, jumped off the bow of the ship, and walked towards the cabin. past.

Compared with the other two meals, breakfast in the Hayate Pirates is relatively casual, mostly snacks, so those on duty can eat while working, and those who are free can also take it to the deck to enjoy the sea breeze. , as comfortable as you want.

Xia Nuo was also too lazy to stay at the dining table to eat. After taking a piece of buttered toast and a bottle of milk, he returned to the bow of the boat, while Kira stood next to the railing, smiling happily. Thick sauce-coated udon noodles have a somewhat special eating habit, and they are the kind of people who feel uncomfortable if they don't eat noodles for a meal.

"It's so delicious." The boy, who had just turned fourteen some time ago, still sighed vaguely with his mouth full of noodles. "Sister Ai Aiwei's cooking skills are amazing. She never gets tired of the noodles no matter how much she eats. It tastes much better than what I made before.”

"Then eat slowly, don't choke."

Xia Nuo looked a little funny. Ever since he got acquainted with him, this boy basically treated him as his own brother. He respected him and was closer to him than the rest of the people on the ship. Although his taciturn personality has not changed much. , but in situations where there are no outsiders, it is very common to express some similar sighs like this to oneself.

This can't help but make Xia Nuo feel a little emotional. The world of One Piece is indeed gradually undergoing some changes, from small to big, since he has a visitor from another world.

At least the fate of the Eustace brothers has been completely different from the original timeline. Kidd, the stinky red-haired boy, has not turned into a cruel murderer, and Kira still retains the nature of a boy, cold on the outside and hot on the inside. The aspect seemed quite interesting, and Xiano couldn't help but think of Sanji, the follower behind him.

Well, I don’t know what’s going on with Sanji now. He should have become the sous chef and started to take on some of the responsibilities of old man Zepp in the Barati restaurant.

In the blink of an eye, after not seeing him for more than half a year, Xia Nuo suddenly found that he really missed that brat a little bit.

"Oh, by the way, how are you doing with the sword skills I taught you before?"

After taking a sip of milk, Xia Nuo turned to look at Kira and asked with a smile, "And the domineering thing I mentioned last time, have you started practicing?"

Kanser's domineering training notes were found by Daz in the navy warship. Naturally, Xia Nuo could not keep it to himself. He had already asked Delamp to make a few copies and provide them to his friends on the ship who were interested in it.

It's a pity that not everyone can have an abnormal physical foundation and good learning talent like Xia Nuo. After more than half a month, only Daz has made some progress in the area of ​​armed domineering, and has been able to initially achieve arm wrapping. , the rest of the people have not yet reached the threshold of entry.

"I have mastered those sword skills, and they are indeed quite useful."

Facing Xia Nuo's inquiry, Kira put down the noodles in his hand. His expression did not change much, but his tone was a little frustrated, "But domineering is still too difficult, and it has no effect at all so far."

"Then keep working hard, there's no rush." ​​Xia Nuo comforted him, and after thinking about it, he suggested: "If you haven't made much progress after a month, you can also start practicing shaving first. I'll I feel that this physical skill is more in line with your fighting style, and it should have a lot of effect on improving your strength."

"Yeah, I think so too."

Kira nodded vigorously, then suddenly seemed to remember something, scratched his head and said: "Oh, by the way, Brother Xia Nuo, Kidd seems to be exercising very hard recently. He often practices in the training room for several hours. For an hour, I didn’t stay in bed in the morning, as if I was a different person, which is a bit strange.”

"Oh"

Xia Nuo let out a sigh of surprise. There were quite a lot of people on the boat now. He really didn't notice this change. He suddenly became interested and said with a smile, "What's the matter? He's stimulated."

"I guess so." Kira thought for a while and said with some uncertainty, "Speaking of it, he seemed to have a free day before, so he went to play with Xiao Luo, and then it seemed that from that night on, He started to act weird."

"That should be it."

Xia Nuo's eyes widened immediately, and he held his forehead speechlessly. When Kira mentioned this, he immediately understood. It was probably that kid who was playing with Xiao Luo and found out that he actually couldn't connect a bird. I couldn't beat them all, so I suddenly aroused my fighting spirit out of grief and anger.

The more I think about it, the more likely it is. You must know that Xiao Luo's strength has really skyrocketed after consuming the Devil Fruit and undergoing special training in the small garden. Even Daz may find it a bit difficult to fight against him, not to mention after completing his revenge. , Kidd, who has become accustomed to living on salted fish

No wonder that stupid bird has become more and more noisy recently.

Although he was a little amused in his heart, Xia Nuo didn't intend to pay much attention to this matter. After all, the Hayate Pirates were a whole. If Kidd could really learn from this experience of losing to Tori, he would start working hard to improve himself. If it's strength, it's not a bad thing.

As a captain, Xia Nuo still looks forward to the day in the future when the Gale Pirates no longer rely solely on themselves, and their subordinate officers will all grow into strong men with a bounty of over 100 million, capable of standing alone.
