A swordsman who is not physically strong can never reach the top. But this can be solved. I have the secret medicine formula of the Shimotsuki family that can be used for body building. The money for these herbs should not be a problem for you. The second problem is more serious, your heart is not sincere to the way of swordsmanship." Noah was very happy when he heard Koshiro say that he could solve his physical fitness problem, which had been bothering him for some time. His soul is special and mentally strong, but his physical fitness is too ordinary, which slows down his progress in cultivation. I really have the will but not the ability. Now that I have a solution, I feel a little relieved. Although the ingredients for the secret medicine must be very expensive, it should be affordable for him with his current royalties. As for insincerity... "You don't need to answer my second question for now. Please reply to me after you have completed the basic sword skills training. This is the prescription, take it. Don’t tell anyone else.”
"Yes, Master, I will definitely protect the prescription. Thank you very much for your cultivation." Noah took the prescription with both hands and was really grateful to Koshiro for his cultivation. He accepted me as his disciple regardless of the hidden dangers, and also passed on the Frost Moon Secret Medicine to me. This kindness is too great. Kuina, I will protect your life. Even the World Government can’t take it away. I say that. Chapter 6: Honesty The next day, Koshiro taught Noah the second move: The second strike is a big step... Basic swordsmanship 41% After teaching it, he continued to instruct others, and Noah also had new sword styles to practice. Now Noah spends half a day in the morning exercising and half a day in the afternoon practicing kendo. He also built a place for physical exercise deep in the forest. Combining the sports knowledge from his previous life, he would run around the island beach every morning, swim in the offshore with weights, and carry logs through the forest. The medicinal ingredients in the Shimotsuki secret medicine have been carefully separated. Although Koshiro did not emphasize it specifically, he has learned to be cautious after being wanted by the World Government for so long. A lot of medicinal herbs were purchased from different channels. They were indeed precious herbs, and Noah felt a little stretched with his current financial resources. I bought double the medicinal herbs because Robin also needs them. Noah feels that even if a devil fruit user has a good body, he can better stimulate the ability of the fruit. How can you just stay at home and read books all day? You also need to do some exercise. Although Robin was reluctant, he was still dragged out of the house by Noah every morning to exercise. Afterwards, Noah learned one sword style per month in the Shimotsuki Dojo, breaking the record for the slowest kendo learning in the dojo. Many young people have finished their studies and left, but he is still practicing simple sword moves. The attention and whispers of people around him do not affect his training.
The time came to 1504. Nothing major happened on the sea this year, and Noah continued to train attentively, staying dormant in this corner of the East China Sea. After nine whole months, Noah finally learned the basic nine types of thirteen swords. In nine months, the body completely made up for the previous deficiencies and became stronger and more coordinated. Physique: 20 (10) Strength: 18 (10) Speed: 21 (10) skill: Shaving: 10% for beginners (not recommended for people with average physical condition) Conqueror Haki: 11%~13% Basic Sword Style Mastery 1% Yes, Noah has mastered the basic sword style. After mastering it, you can feel that the sword is drawn more smoothly and the power between sword swings is stronger. The physical condition has also caught up. Although there is still a little gap to use the physical skill of shaving, it is estimated that it should be able to use it in a few months. Shimotsuki is worthy of being one of the five major families in Wano Country. The effect of the secret medicine is so good. After reaching mastery, Koshiro watched Noah practice swordplay longer and more seriously. He was also very confused as to why such a talented swordsman was not sincere in kendo. In Koshiro's opinion, Noah's kendo is extremely solid. If he learns advanced kendo styles and gains practical experience, he can quickly become a world-famous swordsman. Even if you continue to practice with such a foundation, you will have a good chance of becoming a swordsman. Finally one day, Koshiro informed Noah to come to the quiet room in the inner room the next day for a detailed discussion. the next day. "Noah, can you answer my second question now? Why are you not so sincere about the way of the sword?" “Master, I was originally from Donghai before I went to O’Hara. Living in an ordinary village, the village was attacked and his relatives were slaughtered, and the flames set the entire village on fire. I was kidnapped by a pirate ship and worked as a handyman, living a precarious life. After escaping death, I was captured by a slave ship and became a slave. Master, have you ever seen people locked in cages? Dignity, life, everything does not belong to me. " As he spoke, Noah revealed the slave mark on his arm.
"Hey, so you crave power? Kendo is also a kind of power. The more pious you are, the stronger you are." "No, after what happened with O'Hara, I realized that power is only a means to achieve my goals, not my ultimate goal. So whether it is Taijutsu, Kendo, or Haki, I don’t reject them, but I don’t rely on them either.” Koshiro was deeply puzzled as to what kind of goal would make a young man make such a bold statement. Noah took out a very thin book from his arms. It had no title on it. He solemnly handed it to Koshiro, which was the result of his nine months of hard work. "Master, my thoughts and goals are all written in this book." Koshiro opened the first page of the catalog 1社会生产力高度发展和物质财富极大丰富；2阶级的消灭和国家自行灭亡；3精神境界极大提高；4人的自由而全面发展；5全人类的彻底解放。 "this!!!" A burst of sword energy raged uncontrollably in the quiet room, the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall were cut, and criss-crossing sword marks appeared on the floor. A swordsman with a legacy should not be like this, but at this moment, Koshiro's mind was taken away, and his swordsmanship was like being swept by a storm and he could no longer control himself. It took him a long time to calm down, and he didn't even dare to look through the rest of the content. The more you understand, the more you realize how terrible the ideas in this book are. This is a thought that can destroy the world. What's even more terrifying is that this book has a kind of magic that makes people want to imagine the world in the book even when they are afraid. A hoarse voice sounded "You, do you want to destroy this world?" "No, it is to break the old world and create a new world." "Even if there is a sea of blood and countless people die because of it?" "Yes, even if there is a sea of blood and countless people die!" Koshiro looked at the strange disciple in front of him, and seeing the fearless and open eyes that were once again kindled made him feel at a loss for the first time. After pondering for a long time, he picked up the thin booklet again and read it. His expression is sometimes confused, sometimes sudden enlightenment, sometimes frowning, sometimes smiling, sometimes sweating, and sometimes laughing heartily. A booklet allowed Koshiro to see the setting sun. "I understand. With your courage, kendo, taijutsu, and haki cannot limit you. But... you are too dangerous." "Master, if you feel embarrassed, I can leave Shuangyue Village in the next few days." ...long silence “No need for that. Get some rest and come directly to the backyard of the gym tomorrow afternoon. There are some things in kendo that will be helpful for your path.
I'm not very proficient in domineering, but I can still give you a basic understanding." Noah looked up in surprise. “Yes, I’m backing off.” Picking up the book, Noah left the gym easily. After Noah left, Koshiro sat in the messy meditation room, thinking about something. After a while, he walked out of the meditation room and looked at the silver moon in the sky. Ancestors, an incredible person appeared on this sea. If he could survive, he would surely create unprecedented great achievements. Perhaps this sea can no longer calm down. I really don’t know if what I did was right. Noah was also very happy when he returned home. If possible, he really wanted to continue to practice in Shimoyue Village. Although Master Koshiro didn't express his opinion directly this time, at least he was willing to continue teaching him, which made him very happy. Robin asked him why he was so happy, and Noah also talked about Master Koshiro's attitude today. After knowing this, Robin was happier than the person concerned, because now she would not have to leave Shimotsuki Village and could continue to live with Noah in this peaceful village. Noah felt guilty when he saw Robin's smiling face. He knew why Robin was happy, but he also knew what kind of danger his future path would bring to both of them. But I have no choice, Robin has no choice, and even the world that has forced me here has no choice. The CP department of the World Government has been secretly searching for O'Hara's orphan. He doesn't want to see Robin hiding from others like in the original novel, constantly being betrayed, or betraying others. In the end, he was captured by CP9 and experienced a life-and-death crisis. For a brighter future, he can only change the world and let O'Hara's fire burn the whole life to this sick world. Take stock of the recent goal completion status. Kendo has found its way forward, including Haki. The Ryuo Haki of Wano Country is very famous in the New World. The framework of the ideological program has also been set up, at least the local knowledgeable people in the pirate world are relatively supportive of it (especially Master Koshiro). As for the first part of "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure", Phantom Blood has been serialized and the second part, Battle Tide, is being prepared. This adventure graphic novel has become popular all over the ocean. Both pirates and navy fans like the second-year yet cool characters and the lines that are extremely embarrassing. It is said that the great pirate Whitebeard from the New World is a loyal reader of this novel. This gossip was spread by the editor-in-chief of the World Economic News Agency in a letter. As for the royalties, they were naturally raised to a higher level. I also signed a contract to publish the first novel in a bound volume. Most of the goals were progressing well, except for contacting the revolutionary army. Now is also the early stage of the revolutionary army, so we are very cautious. Oda has very little description about the Revolutionary Army, so we can only put it aside for the time being. If it doesn't work, you can follow Kerla to find the dragon.
Chapter 7 Training and Tempering “In fact, there are no specific sword techniques in Shimotsuki swordsmanship. All high-end sword techniques do not have specific sword techniques. Those sword moves that echo through the sea were all created by top swordsmen based on their kendo philosophy.
