Chapter Forty-Seven: A Pirate Who Wants to Become a Demon Slayer Swordsman Is Actually a Pokémon
The Golden Vodka is heading in the direction of the City of the Seven Waters, and time passes faster in the Goblin World than in Pirate Time, so Roach focuses his energy there.
Unconsciously about the "final selection" of the ghost swordsman is approaching a little bit, although Luo Qi and the two still have not fully mastered the breath of water, but the rest is only the practice of ink kung fu, especially Tanjiro, whose talent has refreshed the prediction of Scales Zuo again and again.
"Is it decided?" Scales left looked at Rocky and Tanjiro and said.
Seeing that the two of them nodded involuntarily, his voice was low.
"Actually, I didn't want you to participate in the final selection.........
"After all, I don't want to see any of my disciples die because of this, but I didn't expect your progress to be so great.
Roach, I'm at ease with you, your strength is far beyond my imagination, I tried to fight with you a few days ago, you didn't use all your strength, right? ”
When Luo Qi and first came to the Misty Mountains, the momentum of his body had completely changed, the original edge was exposed, and now he was extremely restrained, and the breath of water was only the last tenth form to be fully mastered, of course, whether it could be played in the battle was another matter.
"It's okay, but this knife is a little uncomfortable."
Luo Qi nodded and said, a few days ago, he learned that he was going to leave the Narrow Fog Mountain, and he and Scales Zuo tried to fight each other recently, and the two of them were completely fighting with pure knife skills.
In the first 50 rounds, Roach took advantage of some of the upper points with his youthful body, but after adjusting to his attacking tempo, Tsuki quickly found a flaw.
In the end, the two of them stopped before they could decide the winner, but they both knew that there was not much chance that Scales would be able to beat Roach in the near future.
"With your talent, you will definitely become an extremely good ghost slayer, Roach, I only have one thing I want you to understand, always slash the sword at the ghost." After Scaly Left finished speaking, Roach nodded again and agreed.
Scales and Tsukashi looked at Tanjiro again, reaching out and touching his head.
"Tanjiro, you did a good job, you will definitely complete the final selection and come back, your sister and I will wait for you."
Roach likewise reached out and placed his hand on Tanjiro's shoulder.
"Don't worry, Sensei, Tanjiro is much better than you think."
He really told the truth, instructing him in his sword skills every day, and no one knew better than Roach how fast Tanjiro was improving.
He was like a dry sponge, absorbing nutrients all the time, and if it weren't for Rocky's plug-in, the speed of progress would definitely not be as fast as Tanjiro's.
And Roach also discovered the peculiarity of Tanjiro, he seemed to be able to communicate with those dead souls, and told himself more than once that two people named Tsutomu and Makoto had been teaching him, and I am afraid that the breathing method was also learned from it.
Scaly nodded his head and took out two fox face masks from his bosom.
The mask is slightly different, with a sun pattern on the forehead in the upper right corner of the Tanjiro mask, while Roach's has a moon pattern in the upper left corner of the forehead.
The two said goodbye to the scales and prepared to go to Fuji Raid Mountain, the venue of the final selection.
After walking together for ten days, they were still lost in the depths of the complex mountains.
A thick layer of fog shrouded the surroundings, and Rocky and Tanjiro went around and around for most of the day before returning to their original places.
Seeing that the drizzle was getting bigger and bigger, Rocky shook his head helplessly.
"Mr. Roach, what should I do next?" Tanjiro's body suit was a little soaked, and even if he used the breathing method, his face turned a little pale.
"Just call me Roach, let's find a place to make a fire and shelter from the rain, so we will fall on the road before we reach the vine attack mountain."
Roach led him to a nearby mountainside, hoping to find a cave to spend the night.
When the rain has stopped and the fog in the mountains has dissipated, it is not too late to hurry.
But before they could get closer, they saw the fog parting little by little in front of them, as if consciously guiding the two of them.
Luo Qi's footsteps paused slightly, his eyes narrowed, and his right hand was subconsciously placed on the knife at his waist.
A dilapidated inn appeared in front of them, its wooden walls covered in moss, and the white paper windows emitted yellow light, and it was faintly visible that there were many people walking inside.
Tanjiro said in a puzzled tone, "It's hard to imagine that you can see an inn in such a wilderness. ”
"Be careful, but we'll have to stay for the time being, after all, the weather is really not suitable for traveling." Roach didn't hesitate long and walked in the direction of the inn.
As they got closer, a musty smell came to their noses, and the words on the sign with the name of the store on the gate were very blurred, but the two lanterns were relatively new, and a few moths were perched above.
In front of the inn, there is a small courtyard made of bluestone, which you can see that the owner has renovated not long ago.
Roach stepped forward and knocked on the door a few times, then gave it a gentle push, and opened the door.
In the lobby of the inn, there were few inside, and a handsome black-haired young man sat in a prominent position with his legs crossed.
When he saw Roach and Tanjiro, he just glanced at them and stopped paying attention to them, drinking the wine from the bowl vigorously.
In the corner, there were two samurai on errands, who specialized in handling things for the government, and they didn't even look at Luo Qi and the two, but just sat in their positions blankly.
Afraid of the rain on her body, the curtain behind the counter was opened, and a woman with a good face and a look of more than thirty years of age walked out and greeted Luo Qi and the others.
"Please inside, just find a place to sit, I'm the proprietress here, my name is Keiko."
Roach nodded, he took care of himself to the side of the black-haired boy, although the proprietress didn't look out of the ordinary, but the inn was full of weirdness.
Tanjiro hurriedly sat down, and after he stepped through the door, his whole spirit became a little tense, and his eyes unconsciously looked towards the stairs leading to the second floor.
When the black-haired boy saw Roach and Tanjiro, he grabbed the bottle in his hand like a puppy guarding his food, and bared his teeth at them.
Luo Qi felt a little amused when he looked at him, and couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you eat the food on the table just by drinking?" ”
The black-haired boy's face fell to the dishes that seemed to be full of appetite, and his nose sniffed, and the expression on his face became a little disgusted.
"It smells weird."
At this time, the proprietress came over and said softly: "Two of you, there are first-class rooms here, you can move to the second floor." ”
