Chapter 241 Seeking a Breakthrough

Bista is actually an uncle. He has followed Whitebeard in the New World more than 20 years ago. He is probably in his thirties now and is about to reach the fourth grade.

However, this uncle looks very particular. He always wears a top hat, suit and cloak. He also has a curvy and neat gentleman's beard. From time to time, he will use his white-gloved fingers to gently twist His beard.

He maintained his usual smiling expression and stood opposite Ian. He lifted his cloak, revealing the two long swords hanging on his left waist.

Bista's weapon is actually a bit strange. The hilt of his sword is actually wrapped with a guard. It is the hilt of a common Western stabbing sword. However, his blade is not slender and sharp. Instead, it is The single-edged katana-like blade does not have a thick back like an ordinary sailor sword.

Such a unique shape can be said to be a combination of several styles of weapons, so after Bista took out the sword, Ian has been paying attention to his weapon and couldn't help but ask: "Your sword?" , isn’t it also one of the famous swords?”

"Of course! This is one of the twenty-one skills of the sharp sword!" Bista said with a smile: "The name of the sword is 'Flower Burial'! Where is your sword?"

"Mine?" Ian looked at the knife in front of him and introduced: "This is Senbonzakura..."

"As expected!" Bista laughed and said, "I saw the battle between you and Kizaru in mid-air from afar. The cherry blossom petals flying all over the sky made me a little excited!"

"Uh..." Ian didn't know what to say. When Bista mentioned it, Ian suddenly realized that when Bista made a move, the foil sword seemed to be filled with petals. Flying?

Wait until the discussion between him and Bista won't turn into the plot of a beautiful art film...

"Be careful!" Bista saw that he was a little distracted and reminded him aloud. He was already holding swords in both hands and was ready to attack.

Ian also came to his senses, holding the scabbard in his left hand, resting his right hand on the handle of the knife, squatting slightly, ready to take action at any time.

According to Ian's estimation, foil swordsman Bista should also be a great swordsman-level opponent. How should I put it? From the time Ian went to sea to now, the only great swordsman Ian has ever faced is Bista. The others The opponents are all not good at swordsmanship, which is probably why Ian's swordsmanship has not improved for a long time.

At this time, the sparring between the two really looked like a duel between two swordsmen. Ian adjusted his breathing according to the method taught by Rayleigh, and the muscles all over his body were tense, just like Koushiro taught him. , the easiest position to take action is guarding Bista, and the same is true for Bista. His two foil swords are slightly crossed in front of his chest. This is the posture he will adopt when facing an enemy that he takes seriously.

Although they haven't made a move yet, the two people have already deployed their hegemonic aura, and they are fully aware of every move of their opponent. At this time, there is silence in the field, and the people watching are afraid to show their anger, for fear of disturbing the duel between the two. .

At this moment, Whitebeard, who had been watching, suddenly became unhappy and sneezed suddenly.

And with this sound, Ian and Bista moved at the same time! When Ian jumped forward, his right hand also fell on Senbonzakura's sword hilt, and with unparalleled speed, he slashed horizontally at Bista in front of him.

However, Bista used the sword in one hand to block Ian's attack with a clang, and then used the sword in the other hand to strike at Ian's shoulder with the same lightning speed. The sword thrust.

As he waved his sword, flying red petals appeared in the air. Ian didn't know whether this was a special sword skill or an illusion. At this time, he couldn't think about it anymore. After Chang sensed the direction of Bista's attack, Ian immediately made a mistake in his steps, swayed his shoulders, and avoided Bista's thrust.

Then he let go and swung the sword up, slashing towards Bista. Bista suddenly swung the sword with one hand, using his strength to knock away Ian's blade, and then pointed the sword in the other hand at Ian. Ann launched into a series of super-fast thrusts.

Bista is a two-sword style swordsman. However, what Ian lacks most is the experience of fighting two-sword style swordsmanship. When he was sparring with Zoro in Shuoyue Village, Zoro used the two-sword style tactics.

One characteristic of Nitōryu swordsmanship is that it is more sophisticated in its attacks. After all, it has one more weapon than its opponent. While parrying and blocking, it can also counterattack at any time. However, holding a sword with one hand is more powerful than using both hands. The sword grip is somewhat lacking, so generally the two-sword style swordsmanship relies on skill and speed to win.

Ian is also not lacking in speed. It is different from the previous battle with Fossa. At that time, Fossa's attacks were straight forward, so Ian also used strength to fight with him. When competing with Bista, Ian used His own speed has also come into play. Although he only has one sword, Ian's soft wrists and steps that he has honed through years of practicing swordsmanship, coupled with his speed, are not inferior to Bista's two-sword style.

Surrounding the two people are a large number of petals brought out by Bista when he attacks, and there is a fragrance in the air. No wonder Bista has the nickname "Foil Sword". His swordsmanship is indeed full of... Elegance and beauty.

The two of them fought quickly, constantly changing their positions, and fought together. The people watching, who were less powerful at this time, could no longer see the two people's moves. They only felt that their weapons had turned into a ball. A stream of light, dazzling.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them couldn't count how many times they had fought each other. Bista's sword skills were very powerful, but Ian was also proficient in basic sword skills and could deal with Bista's various sword moves.

However, when fighting Bista, Ian found that his swordsmanship was indeed much better than that of Fosa. Bista's attacks often hit Ian's most vulnerable position, forcing him to change his moves. Although it seemed that the outcome was inextricable for the time being, Ian knew that if the fight continued, perhaps after a thousand moves, he might be defeated.

Bista's vision in sword fighting is much higher than that of Ian. After all, Bista is much older than Ian, and he has encountered many more swordsman masters than Ian.

Ian also thought about whether to use Senbonzakura Shikai to gain faster strength and speed to fight Bista, but as soon as this idea came up, he abandoned it.

He knows very well that the bottleneck in his swordsmanship is not related to speed and power, but to a qualitative understanding of swordsmanship. If he wants to break through this hurdle, then Ian must rely on his own swordsmanship to deal with Bista's attack. Just fine.

So, he gritted his teeth and continued to fight Bista. Bista had been looking for flaws in his attacks, so he would make his moves more perfect...

During the fight, Bista naturally discovered Ian's changes and progress, so he couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

When he watched the battle between Ian and Fossa before, he actually discovered Ian's situation. Ian's swordsmanship does not lack the foundation, speed and strength, but the vision requires the accumulation of experience. These are small problems. , so the reason why Bista agreed to discuss with Ian was to see if he could help him and help him understand the key.

"Attention!" Bista shouted suddenly as he was beating.

Ian was already concentrating on fighting with him, but after being reminded by him, his concentration became more concentrated than ever before.

However, the next second when Bista struck Ian with his sword, something went wrong for Ian!

He discovered that he didn't even know how to dodge Bista's sword! Bista's sword seemed ordinary. Logically speaking, Ian could dodge any way he wanted. However, what Ian didn't expect was that all the several dodge plans that flashed through his mind were given to him. A feeling of "can't escape"!

He's going to be chopped down! This was the only premonition that Ian's body cells gave him. He found that Bista's sword seemed to have completely locked him!

It's troublesome to describe, but in fact it was just that moment. Ian clearly sensed Bista's movements through the telekinesis field, but in the end he seemed to be stunned and was instantly slashed by Bista.

Of course, Bista used the back of the knife. This was just a sparring match, not a life-or-death confrontation. After the back of the knife struck Ian's shoulder, Bista passed by Ian at the same time.

Ian was sweating profusely, not because of fatigue, but because of the dangerous feeling Bista's attack gave him at that moment.

After hitting Ian, Bista also stopped temporarily. Ian turned around, ignoring the burning pain in his shoulder, and asked Bista: "What's going on? Why couldn't I dodge at that moment? You Did you do something to me?"

Bista twirled his beard and said: "Actually, I can't describe it very well. If I have to find an adjective... it means that you were locked by my momentum before!"

"Momentum!? Locked!?" Ian chewed these two words repeatedly, and then combined them with his feelings at that moment to understand them in detail.

He felt as if he had faintly felt some pulses...

He originally wanted to continue fighting with Bista for a while, but at this moment, the white-bearded Gula laughed for a while and said: "Okay, today's competition will end here, let's compete. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future!”

Whitebeard knew very well that if he let his hands and feet fight with all his strength, Bista might not be able to defeat Ian, but this boy Ian has no other abilities except swordsmanship, so Whitebeard also saw that Ian was The boy wanted to seek a breakthrough in swordsmanship by challenging Bista.

Just now he wanted to accept Ian as his son, but was rejected. Whitebeard was still a little unhappy, so he took advantage of this moment to trick Ian a little.

If you want to break through, just wait a few more days...
