Field!

Kendo field!

Yes, that's the only way to explain what's happening right in front of you.

Abel, who retreated, did not continue to attack, but concentrated all his energy in the sword intent.

Then he saw that countless sword lights were fixed around Koshiro.

It was a vision of sword light condensed by Koshiro's sword intent.

Anyone who comes close to Koshiro abruptly will be attacked immediately.

After all, no matter how fast the teleportation is, it can't compare to the 'mind', and it is also the 'mind' of autonomous defense.

"Looks like you've found out."

Seeing that Abel no longer attacked, but stood in place and pondered, Koshiro also had a smile on his face.

Abel said: "I have seen this move on the 'Hawkeye' Mihawk, but that guy's kendo field seems to be different from yours, and his counterattack is more rapid and sharp." ”

"It turns out that you have already fought with that great swordsman, no wonder."

Koshiro looked abrupt before continuing, "I haven't sparred swordsmanship with 'Hawkeye' Mihawk, so I don't know much about his kendo domain, but what I can tell you is that my kendo domain is called Guardian. ”

"Guard?"

"That's right, that's my realization. I realized this realm in protecting my family and disciples, protecting my village and country, and protecting everything I cherished. ”

Koshiro suddenly said, "Do you know what you're missing?" It is correct to construct the kendo realm with sword intent, but the realm is an intangible thing, and it is not that you can call it a realm by connecting several circles with sword intent. ”

"You have to expand your sword intent infinitely, and use the true 'intent' contained within it as the foundation of the realm, so that you can eliminate the false and retain the true."

"But your biggest problem now is that your sword intent is too empty, only in its form, not in its spirit. This kind of sword intent is acceptable to attack, but it is almost impossible to succeed when used to condense the realm. ”

Listening to Koshiro's guidance, Abel also discovered his own problems.

Sword intentSword intent is to combine and refine one's own 'idea' with the sword.

But he took a shortcut at the beginning, and forcibly condensed one sword intent after another with his spiritual power.

To put it bluntly, they are empty shells without souls.

Abel finally understood why his [Infinite Slash] always felt that it was not powerful enough.

Only when he integrates his true 'meaning' into it can he maximize the power of this move, and even use it as a prototype to transform into a real kendo realm.

So what is his 'meaning'?

Or in other words, what is his obsession?

Koshiro's obsession is to protect, protect everyone around him, and protect what he cherishes.

Therefore, Koshiro's kendo field also revolves around the word 'guardian'.

Abel has no doubt that when someone threatens Guina's life, it will also be Koshiro's most powerful moment.

At that moment, there will be nothing in Koshiro's hand that cannot be cut off!

'Hawkeye' Mihawk's obsession, Abel is not clear.

But judging from the fact that he wandered around, looking for swordsmen to learn from, and even did not hesitate to train his opponents with his own hands, it is very likely that it is. Lonely.

Victory or defeat doesn't matter, he just wants an opponent who can fight him heartily.

In the past, Shanks could be satisfied with this, so they were both rivals who could learn from each other's swordsmanship, and friends who could sit down and drink together.

But when Shanks lost an arm, Mihawk lost his last opponent.

Invincible is also a kind of loneliness, but also a kind of regret.

This is especially true for someone like Mihawk who has been loyal to the sword all his life.

Therefore, what Abel felt in Mihawk's kendo field was an indomitable and invincible tragic momentum.

"So what is my obsession?"

"Go home? Go back to Earth? ”

"Hehe, there is nothing to be nostalgic for in the original life."

"Is that to get justice for the family and hometown in this life?"

"There are some, but by no means the biggest obsession."

"So what the hell?"

Abel stood there, with a rare blank expression.

The silver sword intent in the sky also began to flicker constantly with the fluctuations in his heart, flickering bright and dark.

Seeing this, Koshiro knew that the other party was caught in the 'inner demon'.

If you can see through your heart, you will be able to take a step forward on the path of kendo.

If not, it will be difficult to take this step in the future.

"If you really can't think of it, you might as well go back to the origin of your heart and see what drove you to where you are today."

"The origin of the heart? What got me to where I am today? ”

Abel was stunned for a moment, and then fell into the memory.

On that day, he and Luo crawled back to the world from the hell full of corpses.

Then stand on the border line and look out at the raging fires burning in the white towns.

At that time, he had a conversation with Luo.

"Luo, what are you thinking?"

"I want to live and turn this hopeless world upside down."

"It's a scary guy, but it sounds interesting."

。。。。。。

"Luo, is it really hard to cure Perp's lead disease?"

"I don't know, even my father is helpless about this disease, and there is a high probability that he can only wait for death."

"Can only wait for death? Oh, I don't believe it. Now that I can survive from that 'hell', then my destiny is in my own hands! Not only do I want to live, but I also want to live longer than anyone else, and live better than anyone else! ”

。。。。。。

"Yes, my original obsession was just to live, to live more than anyone else! And turn this hopeless world upside down! ”

It was this obsession that made me join the Don Quixote family, work hard step by step, and become an official member, a family cadre, and the highest cadre. He even ousted Doflamingo from power, became the head of the house, and created his own power. ”

"So by this moment, has my obsession changed?"

"No, it hasn't changed! I just want to live my life to the fullest! It's about changing the world! It is to become the world. King! ”

"This is my obsession, and it is also my 'intention'!"

When the confusion in Abel's eyes completely disappeared, revealing a clear light, the silver sword intent in the sky suddenly began to tremble violently.

Click, click. Syllable!

The silver-white shell suddenly shattered, revealing a golden light that symbolized the color of the emperor inside.

The [Infinite Slash], which originally had a level of only LV7, was directly upgraded two levels in a row and became LV9!

After slaying down the demons in his heart and returning to the original point, Abel has completed his sword intent and taken a solid step along the way in the way of the sword!
