Chapter 105: First Challenger—

Editor: OusSama

...

"Vivi, Yamato, Robin, and Sadi I want to take Nami to a specific place to train. I don't know when I will come out so If you have something to do and want to go back I can send you back now."

"A specific place?" Yamato's eyes lit up, and she trots to Rifan's face, "Teacher Rifan, let me go too I also want to train!"

"You can't." Rifan shook his head. "This place is for disciples who have reached a bottleneck for a certain ability to train. Among the four of you, only Nami has currently reached a bottleneck."

"When you can enter the epiphany room, I will naturally take you in."

"Oh…" Yamato pouted in disappointment.

"Teacher Rifan, I'm not in a hurry to go back." Vivi smiled, "Before I came, I had already greeted my father, it doesn't matter how long I stay here."

"Princess Vivi and I have a lot to talk about, so I won't go back." Robin laughed.

Naturally, Yamato and Sadi didn't have any comments, they all expressed their willingness to stay.

Seeing them express their opinions, Rifan took Nami into the epiphany room and began a new stage of training.

"It's rare for it to be so lively here, let me make some snacks for everyone." After Rifan and Nami entered the epiphany room, Nojiko stood up with a smile on her face, "It's amazing. Seeing everyone, I feel like there are a few more older sisters."

"What a coincidence, that's also what I feel." Vivi walked to Nojiko, smiled and pulled Nojiko's hand, "Looking at you Nojiko, I feel like I have an older sister."

Perhaps because of the same hair color, Vivi felt a different sense of intimacy in Nojiko's body.

"If we are sisters, then teacher Rifan is the parent, although he sometimes does not have the posture of a parent but is more like a friend." Robin, who has grown up for two years, shows the style of a Big Sister and walks lightly as she approaches the two of you, "Speaking of which, since we are sisters from now on due to teacher Rifan, what should I call you guys."

"In the order of the disciples, I should call you Senior Sister Vivi, but in terms of age, I seem to be older than you are." 

Vivi turned her head and gave Robin a complicated look.

When Rifan showed up at Alabasta with Robin, Vivi hadn't recognized Robin for a moment.

It was because after two years of training, Robin has changed a lot, not only has her body plump a lot but even the skin complexion has completely changed.

It wasn't until Robin took the initiative to introduce herself that Vivi recognized the person in front of her and officially revealed to her that Robin's previous identity was the vice owner of the Baroque work agency.

Although a bit awkward about Robin's identity as Crocodile's former partner, after all, as a fellow disciple of Rifan, Vivi did not show dissatisfaction with Robin.

After talking in detail, the relationship between the two has become a lot closer. Although it will not eliminate the awkwardness in a short time, it was a step forward.

"By the way, don't you want to make snacks?

"I'm hungry, when can I have it?"

At this moment, Yamato rubbed her stomach and walked over.

Hearing Yamato's voice, after Robin and the three looked at each other, the cheerful and crisp laughter spread out in the Dojo.

"Huh? What makes you so happy?" Yamato blinked, "Sadi, do you know what they are laughing at?"

"Well, they should be thinking Yamato is cute, hehe." Sadi said with a smile.

"Cute, me?" Yamato squeezed her face, "Well, there is no way. After all, I can't help it if I have such a cute face, hahaha. "

"Okay, let's all make snacks together." Robin said, "It just so happens that everyone can get in touch with each other."

With that said, Robin also gave a special look at Vivi.

The girls nodded and walked out of the Dojo surrounded by each other and went to the homes of Nami and Nojiko.

At this moment, in the epiphany room.

"Teacher Rifan, there is nothing here." In the epiphany room, looking at the surrounding environment, Nami approached Rifan feeling a bit fearful.

At this moment, Nami and Rifan are in an environment of nothingness.

Except for the two, there is only endless darkness reflected in their eyes.

Although there is a real sense of stepping on the ground under their feet, Nami always felt that if she couldn't handle it, she will fall into the boundless darkness.

"The epiphany room will simulate the environment that practitioners need most."

"Nami, you are going to make your kendo reach the state of [zero] next, this piece of nothingness is suitable for you to train."

"Since coming in just now, don't you feel something peculiar?"

Rifan patted Nami on the shoulder, indicating that she didn't need to worry.

"Listening to you, it seems that it is indeed the case." Nami muttered in a low voice, "After entering, my mind seems to be a lot cooler and many distracting thoughts are gone."

"This is the function of the epiphany room. It can help you get rid of those useless thoughts and completely enter the state of special training." Rifan's figure flashed and appeared a few meters away from Nami, "More than that, in this state, Your ability to comprehend knowledge will also be greatly improved."

"Now, watch carefully how I use this technique and train hard by yourself."

"If you really want to resurrect your foster mother, become stronger."

As soon as the voice fell, a sword of light that spread to the sky appeared in Rifan's hand, cutting it towards Nami.

….

East Blue in an uninhabited island somewhere.

"It has been checked and there is no one here."

"There are plenty of ingredients such as animals and fruits on the island, don't worry Zoro."

Sanji walked out of the dense forest and came to Zoro with Luffy and others.

"Thank you chef, I will be troubling you during this time." Zoro said while wiping his face with the cloth.

"It's to obtain the resurrection item and resurrect the people you care about I can understand your sentiment." Sanji let out a smoke ring, "During this time, you don't have to worry about food and you can train with peace of mind."

"So you must bring that lady Kuina back to life."

"Otherwise, you will be cleaning the dishes for a month."

Sanji himself also has relatives who he hopes to be resurrected so after hearing that Zoro hopes to find a place to train his Armament Haki temporarily so that he can challenge Vista for the random resurrection scrolls, Sanji rarely quarreled with Zoro during this time but rather supports it."

"Kuina will definitely be resurrected." Zoro nodded heavily and couldn't help squeezing the handle of his swords.

"I'm sorry Luffy, Usopp, I'm going to delay our adventure and stay here for a while." Zoro turned his head and looked at Luffy and Usopp who were sitting aside.

"Shishishi, it's okay Zoro, we are friends." Luffy lowered the straw hat. "If Sabo wasn't alive, I would also want to win the resurrection item.

"Sorry, Zoro, we are not swordsmen, we can't help you."

Luffy's thinking was very simple, if he was a swordsman, he could help Zoro to challenge the people on the list.

Hearing this, Zoro smiled and shook his head:

"the thought is what counts, I am very happy, Captain."

"However, Kuina's chance of resurrection is still up to me personally."

"During this period of time, don't just stay there. Let's do the Armament Haki training together."

On the side, Sanji nodded. He was about to say something, when the Golden List in the sky suddenly shone with golden light.

"What's the matter? Wait, someone has already challenged Vista!?"

Sanji raised his head and noticed two people standing in the arena in the live video of the Golden List.

One of them is the tenth place in the[Swordsman List], Flower Swords Vista. 

The other is a swordsman wearing a gray kimono, golden glasses, holding a katana, and smiling.

"Who is that guy, he dares to challenge Vista?" Usopp stood up and looked at the Golden List curiously, "Also, this way, we can see what kind of strength Vista has, right Zor—eh, what's wrong, Zoro?"

"Zoro, what's wrong with you?"

Usopp looked at Zoro and found that he was looking at the Golden List with wide eyes.

"Zoro, that squinting swordsman, you know him?"

Sanji asked.

"That man is my master!" Zoro stood up abruptly, shouting in extreme surprise. 

"EHHH!!??"
