Captain Ghost of Pirate

Chapter 20 Am I Really Talented?



Chapter 20 Am I Really Talented?
The air in the morning is full of humidity and freshness, especially in this small forest, where the dew stains every leaf, and this full of natural atmosphere makes people feel refreshed.

Early in the morning, Ethan had a painful expression on his face, followed Sauron and ran out of the dojo, leapfrogging all the way to the grove.Ethan is not afraid of hard training, but he is afraid of one thing: getting out of bed.Especially getting up early like this is like killing him.But there is no way, according to what Mr. Koshiro agreed, who made him fail?
Yesterday afternoon, Ethan rashly rushed into the battle between Sauron and Kuina, accidentally took Sauron's bamboo sword with his head for Kuina, and fell honorably.Then Kuina took advantage of this gap to fly Sauron's sword again, and she ushered in her 2001st victory against Sauron.

"It's all your fault, Ethan." Zoro frowned and complained, "If you hadn't blocked that sword, maybe Kuina would have been hit by me!" He picked up the hemp tied by the tree The rope was tightly tied to both hands, and the other end of the rope was hung on the branch of the tree, and when it spread down, two large stones were hung.

"I can't help it. I don't have experience for the first time. Besides... even if you win, I will still be punished..." Ethan thought about it, shrugged helplessly, indicating that he was also forced.He found another tree, and the stone on this tree was more than twice the size of Sauron's, which should have been made by Sauron when he first practiced.Ethan tied the rope to his hands, and immediately felt the weight with a little force.

"It's so heavy!" Ethan gritted his teeth and stretched out his hands, and the stone was slowly lifted up.

"Huh...huh, no wonder!" Ethan gritted his teeth tightly and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

"Your sword!" The veins on his arms were also bulging, and his face was flushed.

"The power will be so great!" Ethan yelled out this sentence, and he became a little out of breath after just a little movement.

Zoro looked at Ethan's state: "Do you want to change it to a lighter one?"

"No need..." Ethan insisted, still gritted his teeth, "Teacher Koshiro said, I want whatever amount of training you have!"

The morning sun shone through the layers of leaves on the two sweaty teenagers, shining a light called "effort".

"Huh... tell me, why did Koshiro-sensei ask you to make trouble when I was dueling with Kuina?" Sauron also felt a little tired after practicing for a long time, so he asked.

"Who knows..." Ethan pulled the stone much slower than Sauron, and barely persisted until now, "Maybe it is to let you get used to the 'swordsman's battle is inherently changing'?" This is Ethan standing between Sauron and On Kuina's side, she guessed what Koshiro-sensei was thinking, but if it was her side... Ethan still hasn't figured out what Koshiro-sensei's intention is.

What exactly is Koshiro-sensei trying to train me for?Why do I have to do this kind of practice alone?Am I different from others?Thinking of this, a guess flashed in Ethan's heart.

correct!

"Zoro, did you have any special feelings when you dueled with Kuina?" Ethan suddenly raised his head and asked.

"A special feeling?" Zoro put down the stone and scratched his head, "A special feeling... I always feel that I'm beating her, but I'll always be defeated by her in the end, does that count?"

"...It's just because you can't beat it!" Ethan complained, and then he shook his head, "Didn't you feel that when Guina was dueling with you, she had a special 'momentum'?"

"Temperament?" Sauron frowned and thought for a while, "What kind of temperament can a man like her have?"

"It's momentum! It's not temperament!" Ethan felt that it was really difficult to communicate with Sauron. Besides, with your elm head, what kind of temperament can you understand!
But after such a quarrel, Ethan was sure that not everyone could feel the strange "momentum" of Kuina's duel, at least Sauron didn't feel it.

"Could it be that I...have knowledgeable arrogance?" Ethan thought with his eyes widened, but shook his head in disbelief, "Isn't this thing... to be cultivated?" Regarding domineering, Ethan remembered that domineering arrogance is inherent in him However, the color of knowledge and the color of armed domineering can only be mastered through acquired practice.

But... Maybe there will be exceptions?

Thinking of this, Ethan practiced even more vigorously. After dinner, in the afternoon, Sauron invited Kuina to a duel again.When Ethan heard this, he quickly picked up the bamboo knife and chased him into the yard. At this moment, the two men had already started fighting. Without saying a word, Ethan was about to intervene in the battle with his sword in hand.

But this time he learned the tricks, consciously dodged Sauron's sword, and even cooperated with Sauron to attack Kuina.I'm sorry Kuina, there is no way, who made you stronger than Sauron?Kuina clearly sensed Ethan's intentions, but she bit her teeth and remained silent. Her strong personality made her unwilling to back down at this moment.

But this time, he could no longer feel the aura of Kuina.

Was it an illusion all this time?

Ethan had too many thoughts in his mind, so he unconsciously slowed down a bit. Kuina keenly sensed this opportunity, and with a blatant sway of the bamboo sword, he forced Sauron away, and slashed at Ethan's forehead!

"Ouch!" Ethan cried out in pain, and once again withdrew from the battle.

As expected, Ethan once again got a one-day experience voucher for "Sauron-style crazy training".

Ethan covered his forehead and looked at Kuina with admiration.The moment Kuina hit him just now, Ethan only felt that he had been "locked", and this blow made him feel unavoidable!

"Are you okay?" After the winner was decided, Kuina reached out her hand to Ethan who was sitting on the ground.

Ethan looked at Guyina's white and tender little hand, which was obviously a fresh and delicate girl like a flower, but the tiger's mouth and index finger were full of calluses accumulated from long-term sword practice.

"Don't worry! I'm fine." Ethan put his hand on it.

"You must be in a hurry to deal with the attacks of me and Sauron at the same time." Guina seemed to comfort Ethan, "I don't know why Father asked you to train in this way, but I believe he must be It’s meaningful, so you have to work hard.”

Ethan smiled and nodded, thinking that this girl is still very kind.

"Also..." Kuina hesitated, "I want to apologize to you, you suddenly appeared in the warehouse that day, so I was a little wary of you, but think about it carefully, you saved me, if it weren't for you, I might It just fell to the ground. So... thank you!" She put her hands on her sides and bowed solemnly to Ethan.

Seeing her being so serious, Ethan felt a little embarrassed, and quickly waved his hands: "Hey, don't be so polite, how can you say that you are also my senior sister now, that's what I should do, but... if you slap me in the future It would be better if you were a little lighter at the time."

"That's impossible~" Kuina smiled, and blinked mischievously, "I won't hold back the real dueling species."

This time, it took five days for the red mark on Ethan's forehead to disappear, but within these five days, there were many red marks drawn out by the bamboo sword on Ethan's body.Some were given to him by Guina, and some were given to him by Sauron.

But these red marks are not in vain. After being a "shit stirrer" for five days, Ethan can already feel the aura of Kuina from time to time. The "momentum".

Turns out it’s not just Guina… does everyone have it?It feels more like knowledge and domineering...

That night, Ethan, who had doubts in his heart, went to find Koshiro and told him about the harvest of the past few days.

"That's it. Koshiro-sensei, what exactly is the thing I perceive? Is the cultivation method you asked me to do related to it? Why does Sauron and Kuina have this kind of 'momentum' What?" Ethan didn't mention his own judgment, but just told Koshiro his feelings.

After Koshiro poured a cup of tea for Ethan this time, he picked up the teacup himself, and wisps of white water vapor slowly emerged from the old teacup, slowly drifting away under the candlelight.

"Actually, you're thinking in the wrong direction. It's not that Kuina and Zoro are special, but you are special." Koshiro put the teacup aside, "Everyone's body has some innate power , In most cases, these powers will never be used in a lifetime, but some people, after some training, can master and exert these powers."

"Teacher, did you mean 'domineering'?" Ethan thought for a while, and decided to speak out to Koshiro.

No matter in this life or in his previous life, Ethan has never seen Koshiro make a move, but whether it is the "Hedo Ichimonji" written by one of the 21 great swordsmen, or the few words Koshiro taught him in Zoro's memories, they all show that Koshiro Has a strong strength.

"Do you know what 'dominant' is?" Koshiro looked a little surprised.

"I know a little bit." Ethan nodded.

"That's right...it's domineering. Domineering, generally speaking, can be divided into three types: the 'knowledge color' that can perceive everything, the 'armed color' that can protect the human body and increase destructive power, and the innate 'tyrant color' '." Koshiro slowly explained to Ethan, "The latter kind of domineering is an innate ability that cannot be acquired through acquired training. The first two kinds of domineering can be mastered through acquired training. But there are exceptions , like you."

I?Ethan guessed Koshiro's meaning in his heart: "Teacher, are you saying that I can see those things because I was born with 'knowledge-like domineering'?"
