Chapter Ninety-Four: The Power of Change
After Zefa retreated, although Zoro had basically lost the ability to continue fighting, under the cover of Luffy and Sanji, the Sonny still relied on the wind to burst and escaped from the siege without danger.
It's just that, because of the previous big battle between the swordsman and Zefa on the deck, the damage to the entire ship did not make it ideal to go because it avoided being baptized by cannonballs... In the words of Frankie, the shipwright, if this happens in the future, it is better to avoid fighting on deck, otherwise a few more times, I am afraid that the reserve of wood will soon run out.
Fortunately, after coming to this dock, the old man who lived in the dock welcomed them very warmly. Not only is the use of the dock waived, but it also provides a place for the Straw Hat Pirates to recuperate... Although the last blow hurt the swordsman a lot, the recovery ability of this body was indeed amazing, and it didn't take much time to basically return to normal.
And Luffy and Sanji, who were just affected by the aftermath, were already in good condition after a little rest. The only troublesome ones are Nami, Robin, Brooke, and Chopper who are affected by Ain's abilities. Now it seems that if they don't defeat the new Admiral with the ability of "Backward Fruit", they will not be able to recover for the time being.
…
While Luffy and the others were discussing the next trip, Zolon, who was still in bandages, was already sitting on the shore and pulled out the saber Qiushui from his waist.
――One of the twenty-one workers of the big fast knife, reactive knife, no knife grinding, not sharp enough but strong still, there is a landscape map on the scabbard, the knife handle is a hell map, the blade is pure black, the blade is a black knife chaotic blade big reverse T-word...
Such a weapon was the weapon that all swordsmen on this sea dreamed of, and he frowned as he held the hilt of the sword in his hand.
He held his knife flat in front of him, and slashed at the stone in front of him, only to stop just as he was about to touch the rock.
… When he first came to this world, because of the powerful power he suddenly obtained, he actually caused a situation beyond his control, which was not good news for the always cautious master of ceremonies. According to the analysis of the plot of the original book, in addition to Zefa and his two disciples, they may also be attacked by the navy, including the person with the ability of the Shining Fruit, the general Yellow Ape! If it has always been the way it is now, and then it will be a shame to die because you can't use your appearance perfectly.
…
Frowning, Suo Zheng raised the autumn water again, and then slashed down again, only the same, and finally stopped not far from the rock, and looked closely, and on the surface of the smooth rock, there was a thin piece of sketch paper...
…
It's not just the yellow ape's intervention that worries people. Judging from the experience of this time, whether intentionally or not, because of his intervention, all the dramas and plots he is familiar with will usually change - originally, the fact that the navy actually allowed Zefa to destroy the two endpoints in the original book is unreasonable, if this time the navy sent more combat power than the yellow ape, I am afraid that it will be really a big trouble at that time!
…
Pick up the knife, swing the knife.
The repetitive movements were unhurried, and the gentle air currents didn't even blow the paper away, at most it just raised some corners.
…
Although two years have passed since the top war, all the members of the Pirates, including Luffy himself, have grown. But even so, even if they try their best, it may be difficult to compete with any of the current generals. In other words, even if they find an opportunity to subdue Zefa, if they choose to temporarily detain this dangerous suspect, I am afraid that when the time comes, they will immediately attract the pursuit of the navy... In the vast sea, there is no need for others to take action, and just the yellow ape wants to sink their ship, which is simply like digging for something.
…
Collect the knife and slash!
With a breath-holding blow, this time, the autumn water still didn't touch the rocks or the white paper, but Sauron suddenly stopped moving, and then closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something important...
After a while, a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth
"It turns out... Is that so? ”
Holding the autumn water on his shoulder, Zoro picked up the white paper in front of him with his other hand, only to find that the white paper was broken in half from the center!
The swordsman had no expression of surprise at all—this was just his cultivation.
He reoriented the white paper that had been cut in half, placed it on the rock again, and then continued to wave the sword in his hand with great interest...
Yes, maybe the current situation is really bad, but the master of ceremonies has no intention of giving up. No matter how desperate he was, he gritted his teeth and persevered, not to mention, only now did he realize that this journey, which should have been full of pain, struggle and misfortune, was actually not as unbearable as he imagined.
He locked his gaze on the blade in front of him, an inexplicable joy filling his chest.
Maybe he couldn't laugh with Luffy and them without any psychological burden like the original swordsman, but even looking at those smiling faces from such a distance made him feel much warmer and gentler.
Enduring pain, or going through torture, it turns out that sometimes, human beings can really put these misfortunes into laughter... As long as these hard efforts can blossom and bear fruit, all those irreparable regrets will be poured into happy smiles.
New Navy?
Admiral?
A dynamite rock powerful enough to destroy an entire island?
The swordsman suddenly felt as if these were no longer an obstacle to him—sometimes, when one could understand what one "must" do, danger and difficulty would become irrelevant.
He began to understand why Luffy's buddies were able to smile with happiness every day, even though everyone had almost impossible dreams, and why they were saying "I'm the man who wants to be the king of the pirates!" "After this kind of ideal, which is closer to the dream, it can also make countless heroes on this sea look up to his back...
"Atonement."
He muttered softly, as if by a magical spell, and the bright red system diagram appeared in front of him again, and this time, the swordsman's heart no longer had that heavy boulder.
Call!
The famous knife fell, and the white paper on the rock was once again cut in half. This time, it's even more crisp and neat than just now!
