"Haha, I did learn some sword moves."

Becky grinned, then unceremoniously reached out and snatched the cigarette case from Kellar's hand, and lit one herself, "To be honest, I didn't feel much at the time, but the more I thought about it later, the more I realized that Brother Xiano's swordsmanship is indeed quite amazing." ”

Slowly exhaling a smoke ring, Biki stared at Kailar and said hesitantly, "Actually, I think if it weren't for Xia Nuo's young age, with his swordsmanship, even you wouldn't be an opponent at all." ”

Kellal smiled noncommittally and didn't say anything in reply.

Until a cigarette was finished, Biki snuffed out the cigarette butt, looked at Xia Nuo not far away, and suddenly said with some confusion: "By the way, speaking of which, Brother Xia Nuo jumped from the second floor just now, isn't it just to practice a sword, is it so urgent?" ”

"Who knows."

Kellar glanced meaningfully at the second floor of the cabin, where the commotion from the storage room could still be faintly heard, he chuckled, and shook his head without paying much attention, "Let's go, it's not too early, let's go catch up on sleep first, we are on duty at night, and recuperate early." ”

"Oh."

Biki nodded subconsciously at first, but as soon as she raised her foot, she reacted: "Eh, no, we haven't had dinner yet, why don't we wait first?" ”

"Dinner? Pull it down. ”

Kellal sighed softly and said, "Have you forgotten what we ate at noon?" ”

"Noon?"

Becky was stunned for a moment, and then showed a painful look, "You mean, Captain Tado cooks for the night?" ”

Kellal twitched his eyes with a melancholy expression, "What do you say? ”

In the morning, because of Xia Nuo's praise, Tado's self-confidence was greatly increased, and at noon he made a large table full of dishes, ready to surprise his crew. As a result, in the afternoon, all the toilets on the ship were full of people, except for Xia Nuo, who escaped from exhaustion and fell asleep, and the rest of them experienced what is called a real dark cuisine and despair.

On the other side, when he saw Koral and Biki leaving the deck with constipation on their faces and entering the cabin, Xia Nuo also breathed a sigh of relief, although the slashing action in his hand did not stop, but the corner of his eye unconsciously glanced upstairs.

"I'm sorry, Koyama ......"

As soon as he thought of Zhepu's roar just now, Xia Nuo couldn't help but blush, and mourned silently for Sanji in his heart.

After all, although this kid did steal food, to a greater extent, he also carried a black pot for himself......

"Well, anyway, Uncle Tado has already gone up, this little ghost shouldn't continue to be scolded. It's better to practice more swordsmanship before dinner, and then go to bed and rest. ”

Silently retracting his gaze, Xia Nuo took a deep breath and focused his attention on the wooden sword in front of him.

The continuous slashing was carried by the heavy sound of breaking wind, accompanied by the breeze in his ears, and as time passed, the distracting thoughts in his mind gradually dissipated, and the whole person's body and mind began to be immersed in the changes of the sword blade in his hand.

………………

Before I knew it, five days had passed.

The morning sun and the sunset, the obscurity changes, and everything passes quietly in peace. During this time, the pirate ship became farther and farther away from the direction of Andrik Island, riding the wind and waves all the way to the northeast.

In the past few days, in addition to sleeping and resting and eating three meals a day, Xia Nuo has devoted almost all of his time to the cultivation of the Wind Resisting Sword Technique.

His figure often appears on the deck at the beginning of the morning, and when the twilight is shrouded and the fishing fires are faintly visible on the distant islands, you can still see the trajectory of Lake Toya waving in the sea breeze from the blurred light.

From the beginning of the interested bystanders, to the later slowly get used to it, in a few days, even the most busy crew members know that the black-haired young man brought on the ship by the red-footed Zhepu is simply a sword idiot, and he is accompanied by the wooden sword all day long, without asking him about anything.

Many people expressed their sincere admiration for Xia Nuo's perseverance, but there was nothing else, after all, Xia Nuo's age was there, except for Kairal and Biki, these pirates who had not seriously observed Xia Nuo's swordsmanship were basically regarded as a child's whim game.

At most, in daily chatter, he praised Xia Nuo and said "This kid will definitely have a future in the future, maybe he is a sword hero" and other jokes to liven up the atmosphere.

That's all.

Compared with this, everyone is more concerned and concerned about the food on board.

After two full days of being in charge of their captain Tado, Redfeet, who is known for his cooking skills, finally couldn't hold back, and after beating Tado for a fat beating, he forcibly took over the kitchen with the cook Rika.

So, the days of letting the pirates eat with tears in their eyes finally came to an end, and in order to show their excitement and joy, they even held a grand bonfire dinner that night, cheering and celebrating.

In the days with the sea, except that Tado began to become melancholy, and often crouched on the deck during meals without saying a word, everything was so prosaic and uneventful.

However, from this fifth day onwards, things seem to be starting to take some interesting turns.

………………

Smack!

A crisp sound of wood breaking suddenly sounded in the remote stern, and with the fall of half of the wooden sword to the ground, the sword shadow suddenly flashed, and the man holding the hilt of the sword in his hand felt that his chest was firmly pressed against the tip of the sword, and he couldn't move the slightest, and he was suddenly stunned.

"How...... How could it be ......"

In front of him, there was a black-haired boy in blue short sleeves, the wooden sword against his chest, which was being held tightly in his hand, due to the height difference, the young man's right arm had been raised high and leaned forward, looking a little difficult.

But it seems that such a huge height difference does not give him any advantage.

In fact, as a pirate who was rewarded more than ten years ago, Raku felt that the most ridiculous thing he had encountered in his life was that he was defeated by the sword of the young man in front of him in the confrontation just now.

Yes, a sword.

It was only at the moment when he officially started to fight, the young man on the opposite side made a gesture to draw his sword, and before he could react, he was shocked to find that the wooden sword in his hand had been cut in two, and at this incredibly fast moment, he had already lost.

If it is a life-and-death fight, I am afraid that he has already become a corpse in the middle of nowhere.

"I lost."

After a long silence, he slowly raised his head, showing a look of helplessness to the black-haired young man in front of him, and then threw the broken sword in his hand on the ground.

"Well, Uncle Raku, you've lost."

Xia Nuo grinned, and with a flick of his wrist, the wooden sword was retracted upside down, and he accurately inserted it into his waist, "Well, it's the sixteenth." ”

"Sixteen? In this way, the rumor on the ship is really true......"

The tall man known as Raku seemed to understand something, and sighed with a wry smile:

"You little guy, you really defeated all the combat members of the ship in this week."
