Early the next morning, in the Shimotsuki Village.
The morning mist shrouded the earth, and the fishermen on the Port were already out to sea.
Standing on the Port, El looked at the misty sea.
Nami next to her was holding a pocket watch, watching the beating of the watch, and said, "It's already 6:50, she won't come, right?"
"It's normal not to come, after all, she's not like us."
Carina is not surprised, but understands very well: "Even if she can let go her family and choose to go to sea with us at her age, her father will not agree."
"After all, as a parent, how can you rest assured that your daughter will venture out to sea at such a young age?"
"...That's right." Nami nodded.
"Go remove the anchor, she's almost here."
At this moment, El suddenly spoke up.
"Eh?!"
Carina was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the slap on her face to come so quickly.
However, Carina was more surprised than the embarrassment on being slapped in the face: "She didn't sneak out, did she?"
"She was sent out by her father himself." El shook his head.
"Nii-san..."
Carina squinted her sapphire-like eyes, staring at El, she asked with a puzzled expression, "she haven't arrived yet, how did you know this?"
"Could it be, Nii-san, you have a third eye?" Nami also looked at El suspiciously.
"You're right in saying that."
El glanced at Nami, and then confessed to the two Girls the secret on the tip of the iceberg: "I do have a special perception ability. In this world, it is an ability called Observation Haki."
"Observation Haki?"
Nami was slightly taken aback.
Carina recalled the scene of the exchange between El and Koushirou yesterday when they stopped fighting, then she suddenly said, "So that's it, you were asking the owner of the Dojo yesterday, nii-san?"
"perception ability, Observation haki..."
Without waiting for El to nod, Carina recalled the experience of the past month, she continued as if she was breaking through layer of clouds and mist. "No wonder nii-san doesn't need to collect intelligence all the time, yet you can still find the enemy's location very accurately. It turns out that you used your ability to collect intelligence."
"good"
El looked at Carina and nodded in appreciation.
"...sorry I'm late!"
Just when Carina and Nami were about to ask for more information about observation Haki.
In the ears of the three, there was suddenly a shout coming from far place.
Looking in the direction from which the voice came, they saw a figure of about 1.45 meters tall, carrying a large bag, holding a sword with a white scabbard and a hilt, jogging towards this direction.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting."
Kuina said with slightly rapid breathing, she seemed to have run all the way here from the time she went out, her face flushed slightly, and there were a few drops of sweat on her forehead.
"fine..."
El shook his head, looked at Kuina with smile: "Have you said goodbye to your family?"
"Uh-huh..."
Kuina nodded vigorously and smiled: "Father, he agree let me go to sea with you."
"Please advise me from now on, Kuina." El stretched out his palm to Guyana.
"Please advise, El... Carina and Nami."
Kuina shook hands with El, then bowed slightly to Carina and Nami.
"Please advise, Sister Kuina."
Carina and Nami responded to Kuina very politely.
then...
The three little bounty hunter has officially become four.
"Goodbye, Isshin Dojo...Goodbye, Shimotsuki Village..."
After the small sailing ship left.
Standing on the deck, Kuina looked at the island where it was still filled with white fog, where she had lived for nearly eleven years. Her eyes were a little sad, but they were quickly replaced by determine expression.
Although her heart is full of reluctance, for her dreams and to prove herself to her father, she must give up her hometown and even her family and friends.
This is the choice of Kuina Shimotsuki, the descendant of the God of Swords.
"...seriously, I am very surprised by your choice."
Just when Kuina said goodbye to her hometown and Isshin Dojo in her heart.
El's voice suddenly came from behind her.
she saw El walking to her side, looking at the island that was gradually getting smaller and smaller because of the white mist, and sighed: "We only met for the first time, but you ended up following us in order to follow your dream. Is it really worth it to leave with a stranger to goes to sea, choosing to leave your family and hometown?"
"Also, aren't you afraid that we are bad people?"
with El voice, Kuina was pulled back to reality.
Looking at El, who is about the same height as her, Kuina's lips raised slightly and said, "The eyes of a swordsman will not deceive her"
"I believe in my and father's intuition... My dream is to become the world's No. 1 swordsman, and you will be my biggest challenge on the way to realize my dream."
"Following you and defeating you will be the goal of my life!"
With the last sentence, Kuina issued a statement to El.
If it weren't for the ability to read people's hearts, El would have thought that the girl in front of him was saying confession to him.
But I have to say that this ambiguous word made El's expectation rise slightly: "Do you personally train an opponent to compete with yourself as the world's largest swordsman? It sounds pretty good."
"You...don't think about it, I don't mean anything else!"
At this time, Kuina realized how much ambiguity she had just said.
he saw her little face was slightly red, her eyes were dodging and she dared not look directly at him, and her tone was also a little flustered.
"By the way, my father give something to you!"
Without waiting for El to continue teasing her, Kuina suddenly remove the bag on her back as if remembering something.
Opening the bag, Kuina took out a diary from it and handed it to El: "This is what my father gave me last night, he asked me to pass it on to you."
"What did the senior give me?"
El took the diary slightly curiously.
Automatically reading Kuina's heart, El found that Kuina had not read this diary.
However, a gift from a Master swordsman is definitely not an ordinary thing.
So, El opened the diary with the feeling of opening the blind box.
When he saw the contents of the diary, his red pupils could not help shrinking.
"This is..."
"This is... Armament Haki training method?!"
good!
The diary in El's hand is a haki practice notebook.
And it's not an ordinary haki notebook.
On this, not only the awakening and training methods of the Armament Haki are recorded, but also the high-level use of the armament haki, that is, "Emission and Internal Destruction" in the Wano Country.
El knew that a gift from a Master swordsman was definitely not an ordinary thing.
But he didn't expect that Koushirou's gift would be so big.
As one of the most mysterious and powerful countries in the world, Wano Country has its own Haki system just like the "Amazon Lily" in the Calm Belt.
The Kuja Tribe likes to call Haki the spirit of Nine Snake Haki.
And the Haki in the Wano Country is known as Ryou.
Being able to name Haki shows that their country has thoroughly researched it.
In fact, whether it's Island of Amazon Lily or Wano Country, they have indeed thoroughly studied Haki.
A power that others cannot awaken in their entire lives, but both countries have their own awakening and practice methods.
So much so that most of the young warriors in these two countries possess Haki.
It can be seen that the gift of Koushirou is a big one!
"Ok?"
Just as El was flipping through the Armament Haki training method, a letter emerged from the page.
Taking out the letter in the book, El opened and read it.
"I see..."
When El read the letter at a glance, there was a hint of surprise on his face.
No wonder he gave him this big gift. It turned out he want him to protect his daughter, help her awaken Haki, and even master high-level usage of it.
"Armament Haki training method, what is that?"
El's mood at this time, Kuina did not know.
Hearing the words Armament Haki training method, Kuina tilted her head and asked curiously.
"It's an ability that all swordsmen must master. After you understand the "Breath of All Things", which is the so-called "cutting through Steel", I will teach you personally. "
El put away the Armament Haki training method and letter, looking at Kuina, and encouraged her: "In the future, you will train with me every day. With your talent, I believe that you will soon understand the "Breath of all thing". "
"I think so too!"
Kuina looked at El with a determined expression.
The reason why she chose to give up her hometown, friends, family and follow the boy with who she had only known for less than a day, in addition to taking risks and challenging swordsmen all over the world, it was mainly to challenge El.
Just like Zoro, he kept challenging herself, and after more than a thousand defeats, his strength quickly caught up with her.
And now, Kuina just wants to imitate Zoro, constantly challenge El, and grow up from defeat.
...
Just two hours after the four left.
"What? Kuina went to sea?!"
Zoro, who had finished his morning training, suddenly got bad news from Koushirou.
When he learned that Kuina followed El and go to sea, Zoro was like being struck by lightning, and the whole body froze in place while staring at Koushirou "What... when? Why did she do it, for...why didn't she tell me?"
"In order to reach the highest stage of swordsmanship, she chose the most difficult way."
Looking at the disciple he attached great importance to, Koushirou said with a serious face: "Zoro, Kuina is protected by El, so I allow her willfulness. However, you are not allowed to imitate Kuina, before the age of seventeen, I won't let you go out to sea alone."
"But...but..."
Zoro looked at Koushirou with slightly reddened eyes, and his voice choked up.
The goal his chasing and want to surpass suddenly disappeared, Zoro didn't know what words to use to describe his current mood.
"Before Kuina leaves, she let me give you a word."
Looking at the sad and confused disciple, Koushirou's said "She looks forward to meeting you on the sea one day and having the 1,888th duel with you."
"I know, I won't be left behind by her... I will definitely go out to sea to find Kuina, fulfill my promise with her, and become the world's strongest swordsman before her!"
Zoro wiped his tears and looked at Koushiro with a firm expression.
Seeing that his disciple had regained his fighting spirit, Koushiro couldn't help but smile with relief.
...
El has been out at sea for more than a month.
Before he knew it, he had caused quite a storm of butterfly effects on this world.
The first is to recruit Nami, which is destined to make the future Straw Hat Pirates lose their patron saint on sea navigation.
The second is to change the fate of Kuina.
At the same time, Zoro's dream also changed.
The original Zoro, his dream is to become the world's strongest swordsman, letting his name resound in the world. And now, his dream is to practice hard, go out to sea to find Kuina in the future, complete the agreement of the 1,888th duel, and become the world's strongest swordsman before her.
certainly...
El didn't know anything about this.
Even if he know, he won't care.
Possessing the three major talents favored by the world, El is the chosen son of this era.
In ten years, even if he has not fully developed his three major talents, his strength will definitely be able to protect himself in this sea.
As long as he has the strength to protect himself, even if Luffy goes out to sea to stir up the situation, break the situation that has been balanced for many years by the Mary Geoise, Revolutionary Army, Navy Headquarters, four Emperor, and Seven Warlords of the Sea, completely igniting the entire era of the Great Pirates, and leading to chaos. El will not become a pawn, but a player.
And these ten years is the developmental period for El's accumulation.
...
"Nii-san, where are we going next?"
On the small sailboats that are drifting on the sea.
In the small cabin, Carina is reading a magazine, while Kuina is writing.
Nami looked at El who was reading the Armament Haki training method and asked.
"Next, let's go to Loguetown."
El closed the notebook, looked at the three girls while holding his chin, and said slowly, "I'm going to buy a knife, and by the way, get a new sailing ship."
"Change ship?"
Nami was slightly taken aback.
Carina, who was reading a magazine, also put down the magazine in her hand.
"yes..."
El nodded and continued: "Our members have changed from three to four, and the space for this small sailing ship is not enough."
"So, it's time for a new ship."
If Kuina was not recruited, El's idea was to wait until he decided to enter the Grand Line, and then change to a new ship that could withstand the climate change of the Grand Line.
But after recruiting Kuina, El knew that the idea had to be advanced.
Because Kuina is different from them, the other party will be eleven years old in a few months, it is impossible for her to squeeze at the bed with three.
And she has not yet comprehended the "breath of all things", and she still needs to constantly practice swordsmanship and do physical training to improve her physique.
The battle with Kuina also requires space to be able to perform.
So, they had to change to a boat with more space.
