Chapter 6
In fact, it's not that he is used to fishing.
It's just that his father can't support his family of three by doing other things.
His father's body was the same as Roger's since he was a child, far weaker than normal people in the pirate world.
After the age of seventeen, he barely supported himself by doing odd jobs until he met his beautiful mother at that time.
His mother was moved by his shy and hardworking father and chose to marry him.
In order to support himself and his mother who were about to be born, his father resolutely chose to fight the sea.
In the past ten years, his father has brushed shoulders with death several times, but in the end he swam back from the depths of the sea with courage and love. It may be that the sea was moved, but his father rarely encountered danger.
Of course, according to everyone, my father is actually experienced and would not chase to the deep sea for one or two fish.
The above is what Rogge learned about his father from other people in the village after his father passed away...
(Here is the background of his parents. His father Gale was from another village, but his family encountered a shipwreck and drifted for several days to Shimotsuki Village, and then settled there. His mother Liya was a native of Shimotsuki Village. Both his father and mother are still alive, but as a married woman, she can no longer rely on her original parents for support.)
Rogge, who had not been to the dojo to practice sword for two days, came to the dojo again to do odd jobs.
"You didn't come yesterday."
Koshiro got up early and saw Roger and said calmly
"I went fishing with my father yesterday, Master."Rogge raised his head from mopping the floor and said
"Fishing?"
Koshiro didn't understand why Roger suddenly wanted to go fishing.
Was he planning to give up his kendo training?
"Are you going to learn fishing from your father?"
Hearing what Koshiro said, Rogge knew that the other party must have misunderstood something, and hurriedly explained:"No, I just have an appointment with my father, and I have to go. I'm sorry that I didn't come to ask for leave."
Koshiro looked at Rogge, who seemed to be still sincere, for a long time, and said:"It's no big deal if you don't come to ask for leave, as long as you have something reasonable."
After speaking, Koshiro turned and left, but suddenly stopped and continued:"Your mind is confused, don't practice sword these two days, if you are sure you still want to practice sword, come to me again."
Roger stared blankly at Koshiro's gradually receding figure.
Was his heart in turmoil?
Roger himself did not realize that the strong confidence brought by the golden finger had made him gradually look down on the basic swordsmanship taught by Koshiro.
After finishing all the chores in the gym in the morning, Roger followed Koshiro's words and left the gym. He went to the beach to practice swordsmanship alone.
One sword, two swords...
In this way, the whole morning passed quietly until noon.
Roger rushed back to the gym to help cook in the kitchen and cleaned up the dishes after eating in the gym.
It is worth mentioning that Roger saw Zoro for the first time in the cafeteria. He had a round head and a green algae-colored head.
Dark dojo clothing and a big snot on the nose that only appeared when he was a child.
How to say it.
Roger didn't have any special feelings for Zoro, he was just a little careless, and always looked at the eldest sister with hostility.
The eldest sister naturally refers to Master Koshiro's daughter Kuina.
A handsome hairstyle, capable clothing, and the second strongest in the dojo on the surface. When
I read the original work on Earth before, it was indeed said that Kuina was the strongest in the dojo except for the master.
In a sword fight, even the adults in the dojo would not be Kuina's opponent.
But in fact, not all are like this. After all, no matter how superb Kuina's kendo skills are, it is impossible for her to beat an adult male with a certain kendo foundation and a physical fitness far superior to her, unless the man is really dull.
(Here it means that there are always adult men with good talents in the dojo that Kuina cannot defeat, but she lets him go.)
After all, the swordsmanship in this world focuses more on artistic conception and physical strength, rather than skills.
So compared with the swordsmanship skills in the martial arts world, the swordsmanship skills in this place are really not ornamental and cunning.
And the more straightforward swordsmanship skills are difficult to help Kuina defeat the strong with the weak, unless the adults let her go.
That's right, think about the daughter of your master, and the eldest sister in public. Even if she looks much younger than you, you and others can't help but give face to the master.
Speaking of Zoro, because I am a chores (but in fact I am also an entry-level disciple of the dojo), even if Zoro sees me, he will not call me senior brother. Of course, Zoro doesn't call other people senior brothers either, but the reasons for others are not strong.
(The original story is that Zoro defeated all the adults in the dojo at the age of 9. Just like what I said about Kuina, a true genius will not show himself in unnecessary occasions, especially when fighting with a child.)
But at least he is a polite kid (he is 30 or 40 years old in both lives), and he would say thank you when he knew that he was the one who cooked.
In the afternoon, Rogge was still speechless. He practiced sword alone by the sea in silence as usual, until a few naughty dojo apprentices came to the beach as usual after school to laugh at Rogge.
Rogge packed up his sword and was about to go home, but suddenly he was stunned.
Why did he go back?
His body is now much better than before, stronger than most adults in the dojo (except for the powerful senior brothers who may exist), and he can obviously continue to practice kendo like this for a whole day, why is he still acting like a machine?
Thinking carefully, Rogge found that he seemed to just treat kendo as a part of his mechanical life, and he didn't seem to intend to make it a powerful tool for himself.
Maybe this is why he has been learning kendo for six years and is still in the entry level.
Like many people, people are eager to be strong and eager to have something, so they keep working hard.
But after working hard here and there, I found that I seemed to have gained nothing.
Why is that? It's not that I didn't work hard enough, or that hard work is useless, but that you only regard hard work as a way to satisfy time and to make yourself feel at ease, rather than as a way to succeed or to own something.
So is it the same for me?
Roger fell into a state of self-doubt.
But looking at the sunset that was about to end, Roger was finally unknown and walked towards home.
Maybe I need to sort out my own path...
