Chapter 238: Dusty's Ambition
Dusty finally found out about her gaffe, her face couldn't help but turn red, and she lowered her head and didn't even dare to say anything more.
"What the hell is so good, let's talk about it, and no one laughs at you. Hancock said softly.
"Actually, that's true. Dusty lowered his head, looked at the famous sword Shi Yu on his waist, and said slowly" Because Roger's words back then made countless people enter the sea, not to be pirates, but to be pirate hunters, pirate hunters are completely a layer of skin on their bodies, they can take off their disguises at any time and become pirates, but there are fewer and fewer people joining the navy, which makes more and more people do evil, among them, in addition to the devil fruit ability, most of them are swordsmen, especially the world's number one swordsman Hawkeye, and they are also a member of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, because of their going to sea, many famous swords are constantly discovered by them, I have never given up practicing swordsmanship, dreaming that one day I can answer all these evil swordsmen, and take back all the famous swords that have been left behind, the sword cannot choose the master, but they are sharp weapons in the hands of evildoers. ”
When Ye Fan heard this, he smiled slightly, "It's a good dream, people like you are needed in the navy." ”
"But...," Dusty finished talking about his dream, but then the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and his tone became a little depressed, and he said slowly, "I'm a girl, my strength is naturally weak, and it's almost impossible to accomplish it, and it's a blessing to have someone like Mr. Ye Fan in the navy now." ”
Although Dusty's loss was only for a short time, it was discovered by Hancock and Ye Fan.
Hearing Dusty's words, Smoker, who was standing on the side, took a few puffs of his cigarette in his mouth, and didn't know what to continue to say.
Hancock shook his head suddenly, and said slowly, "Ye Fan, do you say that he and Gu Yina have the same father, last time I heard you say, Gu Yina's father also said the same thing..."
Dusty frowned, looking at Hancock with some confusion, Guina, why is this name so familiar, where have you heard this name, but, why, I feel as if my memory has been deleted.
Ye Fan nodded and said in a low voice, "If you want to reach the pinnacle of the way of the sword, although it is difficult, it is not hopeless. ”
"Really?" Dusty gave up his cranky thoughts and looked at Ye Fan, a flash of brilliance flashed in his eyes.
"Kendo is also a kind of way, there is no end, but when you go to the depths, you will find that the gap in strength, gender and other physical factors is actually almost gone, and the competition is only about their own understanding of kendo, so no matter who wants to take that step, there is hope. It's just that for you, it's really much more difficult, and this difficulty is not your so-called disadvantage in terms of gender and strength, but..."Ye Fan pointed to his head with his finger, "Whether it's a man or a woman, without that kind of indomitable will, it's useless, the way of cultivation is to go against the sky, if you are a little presumptuous, it will make your previous efforts come to naught." Ye Fan said, his finger lightly swiped in the air, and Dasty, who was standing opposite Ye Fan, felt a chill cross his neck, and the feeling of facing death instantly made her hair stand on end.
There was a soft 'poof' sound, leaving a finger-sized hole in the wall.
Dusty couldn't help but be stunned, what kind of attack was at this time? The feeling of a sharp blade slashing through his throat was so clear.
All in all, it's difficult, but it's not hopeless, it depends on whether you really have the firm will to do it, and just talking about it doesn't do anything. ”
Smoker and Dusty fell silent at the same time, they used to think that Ye Fan could reach that kind of peak, because he had excellent resources, but now it seems that this is not the case, but the kind of desire for success, at least he does not have the indomitable and firm will to practice.
When I was in the elite camp before, I thought that I had an advantage as a natural department at first, but Zefa didn't agree, thinking that only physical skills were king, and then when I knew that my smoke fruit was a very weak fruit, the kind of despair and blow at that time made me collapse, and now I think about it, how ridiculous I was at the beginning.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Ye Fan stared at the two of them, and after a long pause, he spoke again, "I will stay in the hut by the sea for a few days, Dusty, if you feel that you really have that kind of perseverance, enlightenment, no matter how hard and tired you are, you will not stop moving forward, then come to me, practice this kind of thing, you can't just talk about it, and if you come to me, it is equivalent to giving up everything now." ”
After speaking, Ye Fan and Hancock left the office.
"Ye Fan, why don't you just tell her that you are going to accept her as a disciple?" Han Cook asked curiously, for this battle with Hawkeye, it has already begun, if you don't accept Dusty as a disciple, then this bet will basically be lost now, and if that Dusty is allowed to develop freely, with his character and toughness, his upper limit should be Zhongzuo.
"It's nothing, everything is fate, this kind of thing, you can't force it. Ye Fan said slowly.
Smoker looked at Ye Fan's back with deep eyes, and sighed incomparably in his heart, especially his identity, although he has not done anything to harm the navy now, or nominally, he has been living as a navy, but no one knows what will happen tomorrow, Dusty, if you can grasp this opportunity, maybe you will become a great swordsman in the future.
Thinking about it, he looked down at Dusty, who was standing on the side, his face was cloudy, hesitant and hesitant.
"Give you a few days off, go back and rest, and if you make a decision, remember to come and tell me, I don't want to wait too long." Smoker said to Dusty and turned to walk towards the battlefield.
.....................
A day later, Dusty took off his navy uniform and appeared in front of Smoker in a proper practice uniform.
"Make a decision?" said Smoker slowly, never spitting out the cigar in his mouth.
"Yes, I decided. Dusty nodded solemnly.
"Okay, you go, I'm waiting for the day when you reach the top, and then tell the guy who told you that women can't be great swordsmen back then, and teach him a hard lesson. Smoker said slowly, taking out a piece of paper from the side and handing it to Dusty, "You go here, he should be waiting for you here." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Smoker. Dusty bowed deeply to Smoker.
.....
Walking through a dense jungle, Dusty, looking at the sea around him, if he didn't have this small building in front of him, he would definitely think that Smoker was joking with himself.
Just as Dusty was about to knock on the door, Ye Fan slowly walked out of the seawater, holding a fat sea fish in his hand.
Ye Fan looked at Dusty, who was standing in front of the door of the hut and was hesitant, and saw that although he looked a little haggard, the confusion, hesitation, and hesitation in his eyes had subsided a lot, and his eyes were full of determination.
"Please instruct me to practice!" Dusty came to Ye Fan's face, put the sword on the ground, and at the same time leaned down with a firm gaze and made a big salute.
"You get up first, you haven't eaten yet, you are lucky today, you just caught a sea fish. Ye Fan said with a smile, since Dasty sincerely came to ask for his guidance, then since this is the case, then he is also willing to accept her as a disciple, especially when he sees Gu Yina, will he be surprised, he always feels that there is a problem inside, and there is no plastic surgery technology in this world, and the two people will not look so similar.
With that, he took Dusty and walked towards the house.
Da Siqi nodded at Ye Fan, then grabbed his sword and walked towards the house, his eyes were usually ahead, his gaze was extremely firm, just because of his nervous and natural character, as soon as he entered the door, he was blocked by the threshold, and fell to the ground with an embarrassed thud, which made Ye Fan feel helpless.
Ye Fan sighed helplessly, always feeling that he had opened it in the wrong way, and accepted a fake disciple.
After packing everything up, Ye Fan looked at Da Siqi, who was standing aside, looking at him blankly, and couldn't help but feel helpless, he was much shyer than Gu Yina, especially his desire for success.
"Dusty, have you ever had trouble breathing?" Ye Fan said lightly.
"Having trouble breathing?" Dusty shook his head, extremely puzzled by Ye Fan's question.
"What is the purpose of you coming to me?" Ye Fan asked slowly.
"I want to be the number one swordsman in the world. Become someone as strong as you are. Dusty said loudly.
Ye Fan shook his head, stared at Da Siqi's eyes, and said lightly, "I don't see the slightest desire to reach the peak in your eyes! Today, you go back first, think about it, because if you follow me to practice, you really won't be able to turn back, and you may be expelled from the navy! If you think about it carefully, tomorrow morning, it's still this beach, I'll wait for you!"
........
Early the next morning, before dawn, Dusty appeared on the beach early, ready to wait for Ye Fan to appear, but when he walked to the beach, Ye Fan was already sitting cross-legged on the ground, breathing slowly.
Ye Fan looked at Dusty and asked, "Since you are here, you answer me, how much do you want to succeed?"
Dusty said solemnly, "Very, very want to succeed!"
"Okay, you go towards the sea!" Ye Fan pointed to the sea in front of him.
When Dusty heard this, he walked towards the sea with some doubts, step by step, and soon, the cold sea water flooded Dusty's waist, at this time, Dusty looked confused, he thought he could learn swordsmanship, but now he actually let himself soak in the sea bath....
Ye Fan looked at Dusty and suddenly listened, and said loudly, "Go forward a little, I didn't ask you to stop, don't stop." ”
When Da Siqi heard this, he had to follow Ye Fan's instructions and walk towards the deeper sea area.
Slowly, the navy flooded Dusty's shoulders, neck, and lips.
At this time, Ye Fan appeared next to Dusty.
"How do you feel now, tell me your truest thoughts!" Ye Fan said very seriously.
"I just want to learn swordsmanship, but you actually let me come to the sea, I'm not here to learn to swim..."Two lines of crystal tears hung on Dusty's face.
Ye Fan nodded, if Dusty had no complaints in his heart at this time, then it would not be Dusty.
"Yesterday I asked you if you know what it's like to be unable to breathe. Ye Fan said, pressing his head into the water, lifting it again, pressing it into the water again, and so on.
Until Ye Fan lifted Dusty, Dusty was left with a crazy gasp.
"Dusty, this is what it feels like to be suffocated, when you're in this state, do you still care about who you are? Doubts from the people around you? Now you just want to be able to breathe a few more breaths of fresh air. That's all you have in your head, so when you understand that your desire to succeed is like a desire to breathe, then you are likely to succeed. Now you always think a lot, not do a lot, fear this, fear that, you still have the mind to think about how to succeed, or the desire to go further along the way. Ye Fan glanced at Dusty, who was acting in place, and couldn't help sighing, I hope this lesson will inspire her well, you have to remember that there is no so-called shortcut to cultivation, and why don't you walk on the edge of life and death.
"Dusty, think about it, that's what the first lesson is about today, and tomorrow you'll start to enter your dark period. Ye Fan said lightly, turned around and walked towards the coast with Dusty.
.............
In the early hours of the next morning.
Dusty was on the beach again, just like yesterday.
Ye Fan looked at Da Siqi and nodded slightly.
"Today, I'm going to see your strength, so I can teach you according to your aptitude. Ye Fan was holding a branch in his hand at random
"But teacher, will I hurt you?" Dusty instinctively thought that the branch would be broken when he touched his own Shi Yu, and he didn't pay attention to the gap between himself and Ye Fan at all.
Ye Fan shook his head and said lightly, "If you can use the sword in your hand to cut off the branch in my hand, then I will give you a famous sword." Ye Fan said lightly, anyway, the sword he is building with his heart now is no less than the twenty-first male of the Great Quick Sword.
"Really, will you give me a famous knife?" Dusty said in disbelief, after all, there are so many famous knives in the sea, and they are basically in the hands of some famous sea thieves, although Ye Fan's strength is very strong, but it is not easy to win a famous knife.
Ye Fan glanced at Dusty, and suddenly, as if by magic, a dagger appeared in his hand--Cold Ice.
"Don't you know all the famous knives, look at this dagger, can it be used as a bet?" Ye Fan said casually.
Dusty got carried away at the sight of the famous knife, and his eyes were all attracted by the ice.
