Chapter 7 Cultivation and tempering
"Actually, there are no specific moves in Shuoyueliu swordsmanship, and all high-end kendos do not have specific sword moves.
Those sword moves that resound across the sea were created by top swordsmen in their kendo thoughts.
For example, Shuoyue Ryoma, the ancestor of the Shuoyue family, has a dragon-slaying move, which is a slash that he feels when he cuts down a dragon.
Special moves are meaningless when fighting against an expert.
The winner can be determined by honing the mind, sword, and body to the extreme and then condensing them into one, and striking with their respective beliefs. "
As he spoke, Koushiro pulled out Wado Ichimonji and slowly drew his sword at the forest in the distance. He slashed through it with a flying slash, and the trees fell down.
He quickly slashed with his sword, but the cotton cloth in front of him was unscathed.
“You see, the way of swordsmanship can be said to be simple or difficult.
There are swordsmen in this world who can cut through anything, and there are swordsmen who can cut through everything.
This is the basics of a swordsman.
Feel your breath, and when you can cut through steel, your swordsmanship will have risen to another level.
When you can perform a truly condensed flying slash, you will become a swordsman. "
Basic Kendo is covered by Frost Moon Kendo
Frost Moon Kendo Mastery 5%
An explanation that goes straight to the core and easily explains what a swordsman is. This is the foundation of the Shuangyue family.
“As for Haki, your body is not strong enough for Armed Haki, so continue training.
The sense of sight, hearing, and color can be understood naturally when you feel the breath of the sword. This is the way of orthodox swordsmanship.
This is the secret recipe for the next stage, figure it out yourself. "
Now that he has decided to continue to teach Noah, Koushiro will not hide his secrets. A samurai must have his own decision-making, as sharp as a sword.
"Also, when you have time, you can go to the nearby sea to deal with some pirates. Swordsmen are not trained.
I'll check the progress after a year, and if appropriate, I'll pass on your domineering energy. "
Koushiro said directly that swords are murder weapons and swordsmanship is the art of killing. No matter how beautiful the words are, they cannot cover it up. This is all true.
He also reached the realm of swordsman by killing pirates.
He also secretly visited the Grand Line, where only the opponents could put him between life and death to unleash his potential.
There was once a swordsman whose sword was as bright as the moonlight, but he did not leave his name on the Grand Route, but he took away the heads of dozens of great pirates.
After saying that, Koushiro left. The next step depends on Noah himself. No swordsman can teach him step by step.
The communication and dialogue with Koushiro made Noah understand the position of the strong man on the sea.
Through Koushiro's description of the realm of kendo, Noah also benchmarked the realm of his analytical power.
Master-level swordsmanship is the swordsman level, perfect swordsmanship is the top swordsman level, and transcendent level swordsmanship is the great swordsman level.
Basically, the future Yonko and the Three Great Generals will all have at least one transcendent level, or even no less than one.
For that level, there will basically not be any weaknesses left for oneself.
After Noah got the new Frost Moon secret recipe, he once again collected medicinal materials through his own channels and exercised even more crazily.
It is now 1504, five years before the great event of Marie Joie in 1509.
In the past five years, the goals he has set for his own strength are to break through to the swordsman level in swordsmanship, to at least reach proficiency in domineering, and to reach the master level at best.
Noah now has many film and television animation works in his mind. Wouldn't it be easy to come up with a few abnormal exercise methods?
Let the memories of the previous life become the foundation for advancement in this life.
After combining the imagination of the previous world with the reality of this world, he came up with an exercise method that amazed even Koushiro.
The way to exercise your body starts with a waterfall punch, which is taken from the Saint Seiya series.
Needless to say, the Saints are a group of goddess protection organizations whose fists pierce the sky and their kicks can crack the earth.
Practicing boxing in a waterfall is represented by the Libra who overthrew Mount Lu.
Originally, there was no waterfall in Shuangyue Village, so even if we came up with this idea, we couldn't implement it.
But this world is not so scientific. Master Koshiro was invited to the river behind the island, and he struck out the waterfall with an amazing flying slash.
By the way, Frost Moon Kendo proficiency is 6%
Practicing boxing under the waterfall, with rolling logs and boulders falling from the river from time to time, combined with the frost moon secret medicine, the effect is great, Master Koushiro said it was good.
It means that if you practice like this, your body will soon be able to hone its armed and domineering aura. Because if you can't practice it, you may die in a few days.
He also took a different approach to training Haki by blindfolding Robin and letting Robin use his Flower Fruit ability to throw stones from all directions, while Noah used his wooden knife to chop the stones.
This not only exercises the swordsmanship but also the sense of seeing, hearing and color, and also exercises Robin's fruit ability, killing three birds with one stone.
At first, Noah was bruised and bruised all over his body. Robin couldn't bear to do it, but he continued to exercise after being comforted.
Later, after being able to hit every stone even while blindfolded, he plugged up his ears and returned to the form of bruised Noah again.
A month later, I was able to hit the stone by feeling, but the sight and feeling still didn’t come out, I just had a feeling that it was about to come out.
Noah knew then that this training method had come to an end.
He is going to find the answer between life and death.

He wore a tachi on his back and pretended to be a pirate hunter. After comforting Robin Noah, he was ready to go.
This time I plan to wander the East China Sea for a month to seek a breakthrough.
Boarding a passing merchant ship, Noah officially went to sea under the alias Klein Moretti.
This move pays tribute to the great Fool. After all, the vest is the Fool's destiny.
Sailing on the sea is extremely boring, but Old Neil, the captain of the merchant ship, likes it very much. The more boring the safer it is.
This ship is a trading ship that sails around various islands in the East China Sea. It is relatively small in scale. The sailors on the ship work part-time as guards, so how can they feel safe?
When I was in Shuoyue Village, there was a pirate hunter who wanted to take a boat. As long as the boat fee was waived, he could be his escort.
This kind of good thing made Old Neil hesitate for a while but refused at first. After all, the more experienced he is, the more he understands that pie in the sky will not fall into the sky.
However, after the pirate hunter took out the letter of introduction from the master of the kendo gym in Shuoyue Village, Old Neil changed his attitude and readily agreed to Mr. Klein's boarding.
Of course, there is no escort fee. We must respect Mr. Klein’s original intention.
The reason why he changed his attitude was that Old Neil knew that the owner of Shuangyue Village was a capable person.
From time to time, people would take a boat to learn skills from nearby islands, and Shuangyue Village had not been captured by pirates in these years.
Therefore, the captains in this area of the sea respect Koushiro, a strong man.
By taking this pirate hunter on board, the safety of the ship can be improved before he disembarks. Of course, there are only a few, so you should be cautious.
Being a pirate hunter does not mean that you are very strong. Generally, the way a pirate hunter hunts pirates is to follow a certain pirate whose bounty is not high, and use various methods to assassinate the target when the pirate is unprepared.
Such as hewing ships, setting fires, poisoning, lime powder, stabbing in the back to make traps, etc., and rarely fight head-on.
The reason why the bounty is not high is because the strength is there.
When one's strength reaches a certain level, these despicable tricks won't work that well, and the risk of assassination will be greater.
The attributes of a pirate hunter are very similar to those of a maned dog. They are of bad character and don't mind eating carrion. They are good at bullying the weak and afraid of the strong.
The strength of most hunters is really not that good. Wouldn't it be nice for the strong ones to be pirates?
People like Zoro are completely outliers among pirate hunters. How can any pirate hunter chase pirates and kill them head-on?
The reason why Mengka the Axe-hand humiliated Sauron so much was because he thought that what would happen if I, a mere pirate hunter, were tied up.
Back to the merchant ship. Because it was a merchant ship, the interior space was filled with cargo.
Noah had no choice but to lean on the cargo at the stern. Looking at the sea in the distance, feeling the ups and downs of the waves, I practiced sword meditation silently.
This trick comes from the Bleach series. Inside, the Shinigami will communicate with his Zanpakutō through Tozen to exert incredible power.
Without being able to exercise, Noah had no choice but to try this kind of exercise without knowing whether it would be effective.
With my eyes open, the sea breeze blew, and I listened to the chirping of seagulls gradually calming down, and I could only hear my own breathing. Breathe in, breathe in.
At this time, he seemed to feel something flashing past on the sea in the distance, and when he looked at it carefully, there was nothing. But deep down, I felt something huge approaching.
Although he didn't see anything, Noah believed in his intuition more and stood up with the knife in hand to be on guard.
"Mr. Klein, what's the matter?"
"dangerous."
Afterwards, Noah ignored the commotion of the sailors and concentrated on spreading his senses to the maximum.
After waiting for five minutes, there was no movement on the sea surface. The sailors all dispersed to do their own things, secretly cursing the pirate hunter for being too unreliable.
"coming!"
With a bang, a black shadow rushed out of the sea, casting a shadow that enveloped the entire merchant ship.
Sea beast!
