Chapter 6: My Name is Tempest

"Who?!" The sudden sound in his head really startled Zoro, he looked around and found that no one was looking at him, he finally lowered his head, looked at the blade in his hand with a light blue shimmer, and was extremely surprised: "Are you talking?" ”

Airplanes~

The blade trembled slightly, and Zoro heard the indifferent male voice again: "Are you my Master?" ”

Zoro: "Well, what Master? ”

"Are you my Master?"

Although it didn't answer Zoro's question, and repeated it like a repeater, Sauron was very empathetic in telling it something.

Swinging the tip of his knife towards the place where Yasuo had died, Zoro pointed to the bits of ash left on the ground and explained, "Look, that's your master." ”

……

As a strong man, Zoro's eyes were extremely bright except when he was looking for his way, so he could clearly see the light on the blade flickering a few times, as if there was a lack of electricity.

"Master, under the Wind Blade, you can call me Wind!"

may have let go of his attachment to the lines on the stage, and the knife that called himself "Wind" began to look like a normal person (??? He also communicated with Sauron.

It's just that Sauron doesn't want to be called the master without knowing it, even if the other party is already his own spoils. After all, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, although he also pursues famous and good swords like all swordsmen, but he will not forcibly occupy this kind of self-aware sword.

If the Wind Blade was an ordinary knife, Zoro would have accepted it as his own trophy, rather than trying to figure out its details as he is now.

Judging from the previous performance of the ghost sword Yasuo, this wind blade is undoubtedly the same "demon sword" as his three generations of ghost Che temporarily stored in Rogue Town!

And it seems that the Wind Blade is different from the ordinary demon knife that only affects the mind and brings misfortune (three generations of Onitoru:??? It is not clear exactly how Sauron will be, but it is certain that the Wind Blade can directly enhance the wielder's combat ability, or give them some kind of special power, which can be seen from the changes before and after the ghost sword Yasuo holds the sword.

He remembered clearly that the first manifestation of the Demon Sword Yasuo's demonization was from this Wind Blade.

"What the hell are you?" Sauron was not intimidated by its extraordinary, the more unknown and challenging things seemed to him, the more they intrigued him.

Except for finding your way and taking children.

The light on the blade of the wind gradually faded, but the voice never stopped: "As you can see, it is a good sword like no other in the world. ”

It sounds a bit narcissistic, but Zoro often says that he will definitely become the world's number one swordsman, so he doesn't feel embarrassed.

It turns out that this matter is not only between swordsmen, but also between swordsmen themselves?

"Your master just died, why are you so quick to commit to me?" Zoro is a little concerned, could it be that there is also a phenomenon of liking the new and hating the old in weapons?

What about the festival of being a famous knife?

Referring to the death of the ghost sword Yasuo, the Wind Blade remained indifferent: "Those who can't resist temptation are not qualified to be my master." ”

Looks like they have some stories to tell.

Sauron could hear the undisguised contempt in Windblade's tone, and there was a hint of lament and anger in it.

But he wasn't ready to ask, but said softly, "In that case, then you can follow me." ”

"Gladly."

Find the scabbard and put the Wind Blade on your waist after sheathing it, it is like standing out from the crowd in Sauron's saber with a slightly gorgeous style, no way, after all, it is the happiest sword in the Summoner's Canyon, and it is necessary to be different.

Coming to the bow of the ship, Zoro stood beside the old captain and asked softly, "Those pirates, old man, what do you think should be done?" ”

Touching his gray and messy stocks, the old captain's wrinkled face showed a little helplessness: "The best way is to hand them over to the navy to deal with, or leave them completely at the bottom of the sea, otherwise they will only continue to harm the Quartet." ”

The most profound lesson that the old captain has learned after so many years of trading at sea is to never trust pirates, a group of wicked people who persecute the people and disrupt order in the name of pursuing freedom.

Even if they lose their captain, the members of the Storm Pirates will not obediently return home from Liang to farm, and it is a big deal to change their banners so that they can continue to do evil at sea.

Zoro has always known that not all pirates are as peace-loving and respectful of life as his companions. In other words, they are actually outliers, as pirates, they actually like to act chivalrous everywhere, and it has become the norm to draw a sword to help each other when they see injustice, rather than saying that they are pirates, it is more appropriate to call them sea heroes and righteous thieves.

Perhaps thinking of a partner he hadn't seen for a long time, Zoro's face was filled with a smile, a smile from the heart.

"Don't worry, old man, they can't escape."

With his palm lightly draped over the hilt of the Wind Blade, feeling its unique lines and touch, Zoro looked at the remnants of the Wind Pirates who were trying to escape by manpower rowing, and said silently, "Then, let me see your power." ”

As the words fell, Zoro's figure disappeared in place, and his voice could be heard in mid-air.

"One-size-fits-all......"

Steadily settling in the air, Zoro stared, and shouted out the name of the thought move at the moment when the Wind Blade was unsheathed:

"Break the Sky!"

Although he has sailed on the sea for decades, he has seen the wind that can break the mast, the huge waves that can smash the ship, and the sea kings who can swallow the big ship in one bite, but the sword qi in front of him, which is dozens of meters long and cuts off the pirate ship, the old captain is really the first time he has seen it.

The old captain looked at the pirate ship that was disconnected from the middle, looked at the pirates who fell into the sea and threw themselves in the water with a wail, and the green-haired boy who fell from the sky and collected his sword handsomely, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This should be the strength of the legendary great swordsman." ”

"Old man, there should be a naval base around here, let's pick them all up and send them to the navy to earn some bounties." Zoro smiled at the old captain, "Just make up for your loss." ”

Speaking of which, the old captain did suffer heavy losses in this incident, not only the crew members were killed and injured, but the goods transported were also destroyed, and even the Toronto, which had been riding the sea with it for decades, was about to fall apart. It can be said that not only did he not earn any money on this trip, but he almost took his life.

"Anyway, you've beaten them." However, the old captain did not agree to Sauron's proposal, and insisted that Sauron receive the bounty himself: "We are grateful enough for saving us, and if you take away what belongs to you, the old man will be scolded for being an old man." ”

"This ......" Although the heart is much more mature than the body, Sauron does not have much experience in dealing with people, after all, there used to be a navigator on the ship who regarded money as his life, but she handled all matters related to finances.

"You could say think of it as the cost of the boat and the food during this time." While Sauron was struggling, the Blade of the Wind suddenly spoke up, providing Sauron with help with interpersonal interactions.

This reason was actually a bit reluctant, but at Zoro's insistence, the old captain could only accept it helplessly.

After all, his loss this time was indeed quite serious, half of his net worth was put into it, and he also had to add the crew's medical expenses, aftermath expenses and repair expenses of the Toronto, which could almost make his savings for so many years bottom out in an instant.

。。。。。。

When all was taken care of, Sauron took a bottle of rum that the old captain had given him, and sat down in the bow of the ship to pour himself a drink...... Well, maybe it's better to use a pour, after all, he has always liked to blow on bottles, and hardly use a cup.

It used to be a lot of fun when drinking on the boat, either Luffy and Chopper were joking, or the kappa was curling his eyebrows and growling, and although Brooke liked to make some jokes from time to time, he always played a piece of music that brought people joy.

That was a long time ago......

"Where are you from?" As if talking to himself, Zoro took a sip of rum and spoke indifferently.

"I'm from Ionia, a very beautiful place, calm and harmonious." When it comes to his hometown, the tone of the Wind Blade can't help but carry a hint of gentleness.

It's just that this mildness only appeared for a moment, and in the next sentence it changed back to the coldness of the low temperature: "It's a pity, that was a long time ago." ”
