Chapter 9. The demon knife is useless, and he goes to the North Sea
Kazan didn't rush away after taking the wooden scabbard, but walked around the broken weapons shop under the kind gaze of the old woman.
The weapons shop inside was also very dilapidated, all of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and there was a lack of a piece here, and there was a corner missing, which simply shocked Kazan's eyes.
But.
Kazan looked at a long knife with a reddish twist wrapped around the blade and handle of a knife in his hand.
This pale red is not made but deliberately dyed, and it is a very contradictory color that is attached for unknown reasons.
He deliberately turned his back to the old woman and stretched out his ghost hand to feel the long knife.
Ghost hands, in pleasure.
This pale red is mostly blood-stained.
How many creatures would have to be slaughtered to make a knife look like this?
Kazan speculated that this knife should be similar to the ghost cry of the three generations of Oni Che and Luo, and its own level only reached the "fast knife", but it was considered a kind of demon knife because of acquired reasons.
Kazan noticed that the knife was not due to some special sense, and Kazan did not notice anything special about the knife until the ghost hand came into contact with the knife.
He would pick up the knife for a purely pure reason, it was the same length as a black knife.
155cmγ
There are still relatively few knives of this length, and they are generally customized for some people with a larger body.
"Grandma, do you believe in fate?"
"Get out."
β...?β
Kazan was chased out by the grandmother with a broom, and at the same time threw out the blood-stained demon knife, which also had no scabbard.
But fortunately, the old grandmother threw out a broken wooden scabbard, which was exactly the same as the black knife used by Dark Moon.
Kazan looked at the two long knives with broken wooden sheaths in his hands, and suddenly felt as if he had suffered some strange fate.
Didn't think much about it.
The first thing Kazan did when he left the weapons shop was to turn around, bow to the weapon shop, and silently thank you.
"Do what I can to refine it into a black knife, become the strongest in the world, and live up to my grandmother's gift."
Walking down the alley where he left, Kazan whispered a few words.
The ghost hand picked up the demon knife again, and two small words gently appeared on the hilt.
Useless.
"Demon Knife - useless, that's your name."
"I'll introduce you, this is your brother, Black Knife-Dark Moon."
"Ahh No, it was the light of the moon before, and it should be your sister. β
"You two get to know each other, they will be partners in the future, you have to get along well."
Kazan walked and spoke to himself with two black knives.
ββββββ
New World, somewhere in Wano Country.
A scruffy old man is telling history to a cute little boy with dark blue hair.
"Legend has it that the sword god of our Wano country, the sword hero Ryoma, was defeated by a great sword hero five hundred years ago because of a light enemy."
"Later, Mr. Ryoma went to challenge again, and that battle, only for a moment, but it seemed like another life had passed, and no one knew how thrilling that battle was, but fortunately, Mr. Ryoma won."
"On that day, the dark clouds were overhead, and Wano Country couldn't see any sunlight, and no one could see the battle clearly."
"The other party was later called the second greatest swordsman in the world, born from the West Sea... Celaeno is also the only great swordsman who has defeated Mr. Ryoma. β
"Mr. Ryoma has praised the sword in the other party's hand more than once, it is a guardian sword comparable to Akisui, and it is also the dream blade that the samurai of our Wano Country want to have the most besides Akisui."
"But until his death, Mr. Ryoma had a question as to why Celaeno hated his saber so much that he even called it..."
"Demon Knife - useless."
The little boy's eyes sparkled as he listened to the history told by the old man, and he made a vow: "I must find the Dream Blade!" β
ββββββ
"Oh roar~ It really worked."
At this time, Kazan had already entered the dual blade form of opening the blood rage.
However, what he left hand was no longer a pure blood knife, but a demon knife with the blood of the ghost hand gushing on the blade - useless.
The blood of the ghost hand was willing to 'cooperate' with the useless demon sword, each taking a part, and did not devour each other.
Kazan thought that with the domineering of the ghost hand, he would definitely swallow all this demon knife into his blood.
"In this way, you don't have to worry about the bloody knife shattering before."
"Yes, you can be regarded as a real second-class person."
Von Clay looked at the bloody blade in Kazan's left hand and the black knife in his right hand, neither of these two knives gave him a slightly more comfortable feeling.
No matter which knife it was, he had a sense of ominous or even death whenever he got close.
"You guy, now your whole body is filled with a kind of 'monster' aura."
"Oh? Yes, thanks for the compliment. β
"The slave didn't praise you!!"
"It's a thing to be proud of being called a monster on the sea, Xiao Feng, you have to aim for this."
"The slave doesn't want to be called a monster! I just want to be called a shemale! β
"Okay, okay, I don't want to talk to you about these useless things, let's go, go hunt a few more pirates, and all the pirates of fifteen million and below will be left to you to solve alone."
"What! You want me dead! β
ββββββ
In the following time, the two little ones experienced a picture like this countless times.
Before you know it, more than a year has passed.
The year 1503 of the sea calendar.
In the West Sea, on a naval warship docked next to an island at the far edge.
Navy warship captain interior.
Two thirteen-year-old Miba youths leaned on the sofa and drank tea and chatted.
"Kazan, are you really ready to go on the Great Voyage?"
"Nonsense, do you think there is anyone in this West Sea who can beat the two of us?"
"Hmm... There should be. β
"There's a fart, listen carefully to what the sailors outside have to say about us."
Von Clay listened to Kazan's voice, leaning on the door panel and listening to the sounds outside.
"Wow, look at these two little ghosts, they're too scary."
"Even the 90,000,000 pirates from the Great Voyage are no match for them."
"These are already the two strongest pirate hunters in the four seas."
"Why don't you invite the navy, these two guys are very dangerous to let go."
"You think the Navy doesn't want to? It's not that it wasn't solicited, but it was rejected, and I heard that the navy that went to solicit was almost killed. β
...
Von Clay listened for a while, then walked over to Kazan and sat down.
"We're not really going to be the best in the world."
"Of course not, there are people who are stronger than us in that sea, but they just didn't jump out, especially in the North Sea."
"So, then we just need to follow the request of the phone call just now and drive through the windless belt to the Great Route?"
"Yes, it's a place where we can get stronger as quickly as possible, I'm in a hurry, I still have to pick up people, I have to hurry up and get stronger."
"Who?"
"My sister, I'll introduce you to you later."
"Oh."
Bruburu.
Bruburu.
Feng Clay looked at the phone bug on the table, and with a move of his right hand, he turned into a middle-aged man in a navy uniform.
"Hello?"
"Temporarily change the route, you go to Faroe Island in the North Sea to hand over to the naval branch somewhere."
"Yes."
Click.
"What's going on?"
"What else can you do, let's go, Beihai, go meet those monsters."
With that, Kazan just lay down and went to sleep, thinking quietly about something in his head.
And von Clay walked out of the captain's room in this way.
"Change the route, the destination, the North Sea!"
"Yes!!"
ββββββ
PS: There's a fatal problem here.
If you want to communicate with each other in the Northwest Sea, you can see this from Oda's map: the West Sea β the windless zoneβ the great shipping routeβ the windless zone β the North Sea.
But isn't this a, if there is no communication between the four seas, Doflamingo was already famous in the four seas before entering the great voyage, if he can get a warship with a sea tower and a stone bottom, then I'm not surprised, but how did he make the deal cross the great route + windless belt and even have a red continent to reach the other three regions? Do you have to rely on the upside-down mountain, but the water flow of the upside-down mountain is reversed, and even the warship can't go down against the torrent if it goes up from the bottom.
In One Piece, except for the way Vince Mock crossed the Red Earth Continent with a snail to reach the East China Sea, there is no other way to communicate with the four seas, so you can't really cross the great route, not to mention the pirates are rampant, then the weather is not something that the merchants of the four seas can handle. And even if you have a way to cross the Red Clay Continent, you can only do the communication between the East China Sea and the North Sea, the West Sea and the South China Sea, and the kind of snail that can cross the Red Clay Continent is not something that can be obtained by any product.
This problem is not easy to solve.,In the early stage of the original work, it was said that the navy warships could do the exchanges between the four seas.,As a result, Oda himself didn't give a reasonable explanation for this place.,Probably I'm confused.,I can't make up for it here.,Don't care too much about this place.γ
There are too many pits in the early stage, just like the Creek Pirates were chased back to the East China Sea by Hawkeye, it is impossible to go upside down the mountain, is it possible to cross the Red Earth Continent with a boat? Or can they cross the windless belt with their strength? Oda didn't give an explanation here, so it couldn't make up for some of the pits.
Let's just take advantage of the special channel of the navy to cross two windless belts and the great route, after all, this is not a strange thing, just like the Justice-Marinfando-Impel Navy has its own special current, then there should be between the northwest sea and the southeast sea, and then the northeast and southwest pass under the red earth continent by coating, and only this explanation can fill this hole.
