I am brushing up materials in One Piece

39 The birth of the famous Daobi Lan

Hospital in Shuangyue Village

The sleepy Sauron occupied the only hospital bed here, while Kos was receiving bandage treatment on the side.

The injury on his left hand was much less severe than expected. It was only cut halfway, did not touch the bones, and did not damage the main blood vessels, so it was just a few stitches and then disinfected and bandaged.

After the doctor treated Kosi's wound and left, Koushiro, who had been sitting aside, pointed at Kosi's hand and said slowly, "What's the matter with your injury?"

"this?"

Kos raised his hand in confusion, and then said with a strange smile,

"When someone is chopped, they will be injured. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

"Haha, that seems to be the case."

Koushiro grinned and shook his head, laughing, and then suddenly said seriously,

"Originally, you shouldn't be able to deal with those little minions, right? Why did you pause at that time?"

"This one……"

Kos was silent for a while, and then said unconsciously,

"When I hit the pirate with my knife, it was as if I was cutting open his body. I instinctively felt discomfort, so I froze for a moment."

"oh, I see."

On the surface, Koushiro just nodded calmly, but after hearing the reason for Kos' pause, the corners of his mouth slightly increased the upward angle. However, because he usually had a smiling expression, Kos did not notice it. arrive.

"That's normal. The way I taught you to hold the sword is like this. After holding the sword like that, you can no longer shift the responsibility of killing to the sword, because you and the weapon in your hand are one."

"That's it. I thought it was my own problem."

Kos breathed a sigh of relief.

But Koushiro smiled and shook his head and said: "No, strictly speaking, your situation is indeed your own problem. Everyone will have different reactions after experiencing that feeling, and some people will just give up because of it. Some people will directly enter a state of excitement because of this. However, these two reactions are too extreme. The former is better, but it is not suitable for holding a sword; the latter is worse, and they should not touch the sword. "

"Then what's going on with me?"

Kos asked with equal parts curiosity and expectation.

"not bad."

Koushiro smiled and gave this brief comment.

"Not bad? That's okay, at least it's not the worst."

Kos also nodded contentedly. He didn't pursue any special talents, as long as he wasn't the least qualified, that would be enough.

Suddenly, Koushiro said as if he suddenly remembered something: "No matter what else, your last move was really good."

This time, Kos was confused. He couldn't remember that he had used any decent moves.

"Which trick?"

"That move of throwing the kettle out is a masterstroke even in my opinion."

Koushiro gestured and made the gesture that Kos closed his eyes and retreated to throw out the kettle.

"Hey! What kind of move is that? Isn't it just a dirty trick?"

Zoro, who was lying on the bed, straightened up and said disdainfully.

"You can't say that!"

Koushiro lightly tapped Zoro on the head and said,

"The gap in strength between you and that pirate is not small. To be mean, he is the one who bullies the small ones first, isn't he?"

Zoro said a little aggrievedly: "Isn't that what you asked us to do?"

"Haha, yes."

Koushiro laughed slightly awkwardly, and stopped after a while.

"In short, remember that there is no truly fair fight in this world, and the definition of despicable or not varies from person to person."

"Anyway, the scar on my back and swinging my sword at someone whose back is turned to me are the disgrace of a swordsman."

Zoro turned around unconvinced. This was not a child's anger but his insistence on his own principles.

Koushiro looked at Zoro's back and smiled, shook his head and said, "I'm not teaching you to sneak attack others, but you have to remember that even if you don't escape, you may be scarred from behind. Not everyone is like that If you pursue facing strong enemies and defeating them like that, you will definitely encounter unscrupulous people as you move towards your goals, and you will be deceived if you are not smarter."

After Koushiro finished speaking, Zoro turned around obediently and lowered his head as if admitting his mistake.

"understood."

At first, Kos was a little surprised that Sauron could be so well-behaved, but after thinking about it for a moment, it was normal. Now Zoro is not the pirate hunter he will be in the future, he is just a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old, and he is not yet in the rebellious stage, so it is normal for him to show this expression in front of his master, Koushiro.

But after a while, Zoro raised his head again and said stubbornly: "But I will never admit that throwing the poison is a move! That kettle is not even a weapon, and it is just nonsense to use it in fighting. But not every time it happens to be such a coincidence. Successfully defeated the opponent."

"No, no, no, you're in trouble!"

Koushiro tapped Zoro on the head again and said,

"What do you think a 'sword' is?"

This profound question made Zoro lower his head and think for a while, and then when he raised his head, he had an expression full of determination.

"'Sword' is the life path I have decided for myself, and it is also the agreement between me and her."

Koushiro nodded silently at first, and then said: "You are right, but this is the meaning you personally give to 'sword'. Putting aside these subjective thoughts, 'sword' is just a weapon. A tool used to defeat the enemy. So as long as it can be used to achieve victory, it can be called a 'sword', right?"

"Uh... nothing seems wrong."

Zoro was completely stunned by Koushiro's words.

Kos felt that Koushiro's words were a bit sophistical. It didn't sound right at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it made sense. After thinking about it again, it started to feel a bit strange.

So Kos spoke half in agreement and half doubt: "Speaking of it, in my hometown there is a saying that 'every tree, tree, bamboo, and stone can be used as a sword', but that is a state that can only be reached after a high level of swordsmanship. For us, that is It’s not too early.”

"Of course, even I can't use everything around me as a sword. I just want to warn you not to be too rigid in everything, and to be flexible."

After finishing speaking, Koushiro patted Zoro on the shoulder and said sincerely,

"When you were a kid, you could hold a sword with your mouth and realize the three-sword style. Why can't you understand it now?"

Zoro frowned and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he said, "Master, I understand."

At the same time, Kosi also realized, but what he realized was why there was a "God's Blade" like "Famous Sword Bilan", which was far superior to the supreme sharp sword.

The inspiration for co-writing was given by Koushiro.
