Chapter 7: Lost Zoro, Three Optional Talents!

Sparse stars hang in the sky.

The sea breeze brings the sound of the waves.

After eating, Leno changed into his training clothes, took a bamboo sword, and went outside to watch Zoro and Kuina practice.

Bamboo swords split against each other, you come and go.

Kuina with one sword style and Zoro with two swords style have become the most common scenery in the dojo.

In Leno's eyes, the fierce and exciting fight is like a slow-moving movie, dismantling every move and style, and blending into his consciousness.

[Sword Heart] talent, play a role.

He is like a sponge, absorbing all the nutrition related to swordsmanship and turning it into his own strength.

He substitutes himself into Kuina to face Zoro.

Substitute himself into Zoro again to face off against Kuina.

This state is very strange.

Zoro and Kuina's speed, technology, reaction, etc. are almost equal.

But in the end, it was the experienced Kuina who came out on top.

She was very calm, caught Zoro's flaw, slashed down with her sword, and knocked him into the air.

"The 1836th time!"

Zoro struggled to get up, staring with disbelief.

He lost again.

He gritted his teeth and shouted at Kuina: "Damn it, I will definitely beat you!"

Kuina put away the bamboo sword and said calmly, "I'll wait!"

She turned around, saw Leno beside her, and frowned.

Although Koushirou didn't tell her about Leno's situation.

But she probably guessed it.

Another rich man who wants to learn kendo but has no talent?

There are people like this every year.

It is possible to stick to it, almost none.

"Excellent battle!"

Leno came back to his senses and clapped his hands.

The current Zoro and Kuina are definitely better than him.

Kuina was a little surprised when he saw that he had changed into his training clothes, and said, "Do you want to train?"

Leno smiled and said, "Of course, I'm too far behind. Only by working harder can I catch up. Please teach me! Teacher Kuina!"

Kuina was stunned, a little uncomfortable with this title, and said unnaturally: "Just call me Kuina!"

Leno nodded.

Kuina looks aloof, but has a good heart.

She reminded: "The real way of swordsmanship is boring, tedious, and arduous training that lasts for ten years."

"People who can't bear hardships and have no talent will only give up halfway."

Leno said: "I believe in myself!"

Kuina was noncommittal.

There are too many people like Leno, who made a promise when they first came, and within two days they got tired and disappeared in half a month.

"Zoro, take him to the beach for a few laps first!" Kuina said.

"Eh?"

Zoro glanced at Leno.

Leno looked at him too.

The two stared at each other.

"Kendo, physical fitness is very important. I will teach you swordsmanship, steps, and breathing after your physical fitness is qualified."

Kuina wanted to test Leno's will first, if she couldn't persist, it would be useless for her to teach anything, and she would have to leave sooner or later.

Learning to be half-baked will actually damage the reputation of the dojo.

Of course, her reasons are quite good.

Without physical fitness, no matter how powerful swordsmanship is, it is useless.

This is also something that limits her.

She could feel that as Zoro's technique became more and more sophisticated, her own physical strength and strength became short boards.

It's getting harder and harder to beat Zoro.

Kuina clenched the bamboo sword in her hand.

Come to the gate of the dojo.

Zoro puts the back of his head in his hands and looks sideways at Leno.

"Hey, let me say yes first, I won't wait for you, follow me closely, I'm afraid you will lose it!"

Afraid I lost it?

Leno's mouth twitched.

Zoro, who gave you the courage to say this?

Could it be.

Your road idiot attribute has not been activated yet?

It shouldn't be!

Zoro bowed his waist, bent his knees, sat to warm up, then exhaled and looked towards the sea.

"Are you ready?"

Leno nodded.

"run!"

After Zoro's voice fell, he stepped on the ground with his back foot, stepped on a dent, and then sprang out like a fired shell.

Leno starts off, only to see dust kicked up by Zoro.

wipe!

Is this the Pirate World, the strength of top talents?

Leno marveled.

He came to Pirate World for more than a month, acquired the talent of "Big Eater", coupled with his continuous training, his physical fitness has improved significantly.

His current strength, speed, etc., definitely reach the previous world champion level, and even surpass it.

However, this is like a joke in front of Zoro.

Young Zoro, is he strong?

Watch him train by pulling tons of boulders.

You should know how strong his physical fitness is.

But in the world of Pirates, there are countless monsters physically stronger than him.

"It's not a reincarnation, what a shame!"

Leno shook his head, not in a hurry to catch up with Zoro, and kept his own breathing rhythm, running forward step by step.

He is not discouraged.

Didn't the weak Koby also follow Luffy's footsteps during the Marine special training and gain a new life?

If you have a problem with yourself, will you be worse than Koby?

From the ashram to the beach, there is about 3000 meters of road.

When Leno ran 1000 meters.

Zoro is gone.

"At this time, Zoro is at the beach, right?"

Leno muttered.

When he ran to the beach, the waves lapped the shore under the moonlight, and there was no one there.

What about Zoro?

"Hey, you guy, when did you run ahead of me?"

Behind, a surprised shout came.

Leno turned around.

Zoro rushed out of the mountain with a leaf on his forehead.

Leno: -_-||

really.

Zoro didn't know he was lost.

When did he run away?

[Ding! You defeated your opponent, and scanned for talents: Sword Demon (A-level), Monster Body (A-level)]

Leno was surprised when he heard the system beep.

Is the race between myself and Zoro considered a battle?

If this is a battle, then the scope of the system's judgment has become very wide!

play cards?

play chess?

Excuse me?

Moreover, winning this time, two talents appeared directly.

[Sword Demon] and [Monster Body] are both A-level!

Worthy of being a genius.

Many people don't have one talent, but Zoro has three talents before he is ten years old.

"However, why is Koushirou's [Sword Heart] S-rank and Zoro only A-rank?"

"There is also Shanks' [Conqueror's Haki], which is only A-level and can be developed according to the plot. Shanks' Haki is definitely the top rank!"

"Could it be that!"

"Yes, age!"

"Everyone's talent is not static, it will appear, grow, or disappear with age."

[Please host choose one of the two talents! ]

The system reminds again.

Leno regained his senses and realized that not all of these two talents can be obtained, and he can only choose one of them.

Only by acquiring talent can one know its effect.

It's a bit like opening a blind box.

But from the name of the talent, we can make some guesses.

[Sword Demon] should be similar to [Sword Heart], or it may be the unique ghost aura on Zoro.

[Monster body], refers to the physique of Zoro, right?

"I have [Sword Heart], and then choose [Sword Demon], it's not appropriate."

Leno makes a decision.

[Ding! Congratulations to Host for duplicating Zoro's talent, Monster Body! ]

[Talent introduction: With a human body, comparable to a monster, you will be able to break the boundaries of the human body and achieve extraordinaryness]
