======================================================

A familiar noise echoes in my head I'm almost sure it's about the island's quest but after checking I'm surprised to see that I have hidden quests too.

Let me see if I understand so if I change some small things I will earn points for this too?

This gave me a great desire to change everything in history and make various butterfly effects but if I do it I'll wind up cursing myself, I will not do it.

======================================================

The next day

======================================================

During the morning training I asked Zoro if he would challenge Kuina today he told me yes and if he won I would be the next I was happy with those words in a way.

These two days will be the apex of the change that I will make in Zoro's life.

During the afternoon I accompanied Zoro to the dojo, he returned after a few seconds saying that Kuina accepted the challenge

"She accepted my challenge to duel with real swords, the duel will be tonight if you want you can come to watch".

======================================================

That night, in the dojo

======================================================

I was accompanying him and I realized that Zoro for some reason was only with two swords I asked the reason and he said he still can not handle a real sword in his mouth because it is too heavy and difficult to handle. Imagining the scene was funny.

Arriving at the dojo I see the girl Kuina holding the famous Meitou with its white sheath and golden details the "Promise" katana blade "Wado Ichimonji" and yes Zoro was really right she is identical to Tashigi.

She looked in my direction

"who is this?"

"his name is Jack is a friend and also a swordsman and came to see our duel"

"hi, my name is Monkey D. Jack is a pleasure to meet you"

"equally".

They move away about three meters from each other and enter the battle position

"this time I'm going to defeat you"

"we'll see".

Zoro runs towards the attack just before entering the attack zone he leaps to the side quickly and wields his swords vertically towards the chest of Kuina but already waiting for this type of attack Kuina deflects the attack with its swords as if it were dancing.

After defending, she makes a turn and attacks from bottom to top, Zoro can defend himself by putting his swords forward by making a sign of X but Zoro did not expect

Kuina to perform a sustained attack wielding his sword in a slash of 45 degrees so Zoro at that moment he tried to use Soru but he fails because he still can not do it every time

seeing that he could not escape, he sees no alternative but to fight back then with his full strength he swings his swords against the Kuina sword but he is in a bad position it makes his gravitational center bad

His arms begin to shake and no longer holding him he is thrown back falling on with his back on the ground and his swords flying away so Kuina impales the sword on the ground near the head of Zoro

"My Win!"

thus finally ending the duel.

Zoro frustrated begins to cry puts his hand on the face

"Damn it... This sucks..."

Kuina helps him get up while we sit down

"I'm the one who should be crying out of frustration"

"Eh?"

"When girls grew up, they get weaker than boys... You're lucky, Zoro."

she starts to cry

"I want to be the greatest swordsman, too! If only I had been born a boy...!"

"Don't be whining like that after you beat me! That's not fair! You're my goal!"

"--Zoro..."

"--Promise me! Someday, one of us will be the world's greatest swordsman! We'll compete to see who gets there!"

she looks at him, wipes her tears smiles

"You dummy, You're so weak...".

Zoro keeps gritting his teeth waiting for her answer she raises her hand to Zoro and he grabs them

"It's a promise!".

After that, I called him in a corner

"Zoro look at Kuina she has been pale since before the duel I think it's for training too much without rest and now it got worse after dueling with you!"

he turned his face and stared at her without saying anything

"Zoro, I'm worried so stay with her tonight, and no matter what she does follow her closely because I have a bad feeling"

He sees that I was serious, agreed with me, and went to tell her that as it was a little late to return that he would sleep in the dojo today I hid without her realizing

"and your friend? He can sleep here too if he was... He's gone!"

Well, now it's waiting tomorrow and see if anything will change so now I'm going to go to sleep.

======================================================

The next day

======================================================

I woke up early as usual to train but I did not find Zoro, well, remembering from yesterday I think he will not show up before the afternoon.

During the afternoon Zoro also did not appear getting worried I went to the dojo but there was no one there than thinking about yesterday I activated my observation Haki and went to the village to look for it.

Listening to rumors in the city that people in the dojo had been seriously injured and were hospitalized I went to the village clinic and found the dojo students with worried faces so I asked one of the students what had happened

"during the morning Kuina stumbled and fell from the stairs but Zoro hugged her and fell with her and the two are now unconscious"

Getting worried I used my observation Haki to check how the aura of the two is weak but stable, finally getting to relax I thought Zoro managed to avoid the death of Kuina but I still do not know if anything happened to them better wait and ask.

after some time I see Koushirou, Kuina's father, and Zoro's master

"Sir, hello, My name is Jack and I'm Zoro's training friend. He did not show up at our training site this morning so I was worried and walking into the village I discovered that he had an accident and wanted to know if he was okay."

Koushirou looked into my eyes

"He's fine, he's sleeping, he's only suffered a mild concussion"

Giving a sigh

" Sigh... thankfully is just that but I heard he protected someone from falling off the ladder."

"Yes, he protected my daughter Kuina, I do not know how to thank him for it, but she suffered some serious injuries, but she is out of danger now but I don't know when she will wake up"

"why?"

"because she hit her head hard and is in a deep coma, the doctor said in the diagnostics that she could wake up at any time like today, tomorrow, in 1 week, 1 month, 1 year to 5 years he's not sure"

Listening to what he says made me happy and sad but both are well so I completed my goal on this island I helped Zoro training him and Kuina survived in some way,

knowing her from the manga/anime, I believe she can do it, and by the way, Zoro will still try to be the world's greatest swordsman for her too then everything is fine.

======================================================

Cool. now I have 3730 points and I just have to wait for Zoro to recover and say goodbye, and to go to the next quest which in my opinion is easier or so I think it is!.

Two days later Zoro was discharged and I came to say goodbye to him he thanked me for telling him about Kuina and asked why I was leaving I had to tell a lie

"I've been sailing a lot. I need to go home."

He was a little reluctant to let me go because he still did not win a fight but I told him that soon we would see each other again.

======================================================

Next Morning, Dawn

======================================================

Yesterday a fisherman gave me his boat in exchange for seaking monster meat which I accepted because his boat is three times bigger than my little boat with everything solved I'm leaving the island.

While I'm sailing away from the island Zoro shouted

"The next time we see each other, I will be stronger and I will defeat you!"

Without turning around, I raised my katana blade just to confirm that I accept the challenge, now what will I find?.

======================================================

Shimotsuki Village End.
