After listening to Mo Xingchen's words, Koshiro also thought for a while. For a swordsman who came out of the New World, he knew very well that the pirate life in the first half of the Grand Line was indeed too difficult for Kuina and Zoro, who were still two children.

Rather than being protected like that, it would be better for him to stay here and consolidate his kendo foundation. Before Koshiro could speak, Mo Xingchen continued:

"Wait a few years, when Kuina is older, you can let her train in the East China Sea on her own. If she can come to Marinford with her own abilities, I will take her to train. Of course, Zoro can also come if he wants.

But you have to make them ready to die. You should know that there are countless geniuses who strive to become great swordsmen, but there are even more geniuses who fall on the road. After all, the top of the sword is often accompanied by blood and death, and you can't do without this awareness. "

"Yes! Mr. Mo, I've made note of it!

By the way, I haven't asked you yet, sir, what is the matter with you coming here this time?"

"Nothing much. I just happened to be on vacation in the East China Sea, so I thought I'd come over to see an old friend. Is Mr. Kozaburo still in good health?"

"My father is in good health. He should be fishing by the river now and won't be home until later."

Mo Xingchen felt that the small talk was enough, so he introduced Bogart to Koshiro.

"Koshiro, this is Vice Admiral Garp's adjutant, Bogart, who is also a swordsman. He followed me here this time because I want to learn kendo from you."

Bogart then stood up and bowed to Koshiro.

"Mr. Koshiro, please give me your guidance!"

Koshiro also stood up quickly and said with a little doubt:

"There's nothing wrong with a sword fight. I'm just a little curious. Mr. Mo is obviously a more powerful swordsman than me. You could just follow him and ask him for advice. Why did you come all the way to me for advice?"

"Uh~ Lieutenant General Mo's swordsmanship level is too high. I want to directly feel the gap between me and the great swordsman. I can't feel it from him."

Bogart said slightly embarrassedly.

Koshiro understood. It turned out that he was hit hard by Mo Xingchen, and wanted to find a great swordsman to test the waters and regain some confidence.

Oh, it makes me look like a newbie. I am not the same person I used to be! Boy, you are in big trouble!

"Then let's go to the back mountain. The place here is too small."

Then a group of people came to the open space in the back mountain. The two stood motionless in the middle of the field holding swords, looking for each other's flaws. Mo Xingchen and the two children stood by to watch the fun and act as commentators.

Kuina was the first to speak and asked:

"Mr. Mo, why are the two of them standing still?"

"A duel between swordsmen is extremely dangerous. It's not like you and Zoro fought with bamboo swords. It doesn't matter if you're a little reckless. It just hurts when you get hit. But being hit by a real sword can kill you.

Before you are sure of your opponent's strength and kendo style, any rash behavior could become a flaw, and revealing a flaw often makes it easy to be attacked, so it is important to know who can strike first."

As Mo Xingchen's explanation of Kuina spread into the field, Bogart was distracted in the confrontation. When he blinked, Koshiro seized the opportunity and instantly got close to him with an Iai Slash.

Bogart hastily raised his sword to defend himself. If it were the previous Koshiro, the two swords would probably have fought against each other and entered a wrestling stage, but Koshiro was also trained by Mo Xingchen.

Iai is a slash from bottom to top using the momentum of the sword being unsheathed, so Koshiro did not actually use all his strength in this Iai slash. He just wanted Bogart to defend with all his strength.

Koshiro's Iai Slash was just blocked by Bogart's defensive force. He flipped his wrist along with the rebound force, and the blade rotated 180 degrees in the air before chopping down on Bogart's head. Bogart could only continue to block passively.

At this time, Sauron asked in confusion:

"Why did the master suddenly move just now?"

“It was because my explanation to Kuina just now attracted Bogart’s attention, so when he blinked, your master seized this flaw and took the initiative.

Then it was a game of skills. First, Iai tricked the opponent into defending with all his strength, and then he changed his tactics and continued to attack. In this way, Bogart completely entered the attack rhythm of your master. If he couldn't break free, then the outcome of this match would be determined. "

After hearing this, Zoro and Kuina were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground. At any time, blinking was considered a flaw. What about the Iai cheating and the sudden attack? They didn't understand anything at all, but were terribly shocked!

Then again, what were their previous duels like? Just children playing house!

As expected, Bogart was unable to find a flaw in Koshiro's continuous attacks and break out of Koshiro's rhythm. He could only passively defend. After more than 30 moves, Koshiro's knife stopped in front of Bogart's face.

"Clap clap clap!"

Mo Xingchen was the first to applaud and said, "What a wonderful match. Koshiro, you have made great progress."

Geng Shilang sheathed his sword, looked at Mo Xingchen with burning eyes and replied, "Thank you for the compliment, sir. Would you like to come down and play?"

"Okay."

Mo Xingchen walked slowly towards the center of the field. When he saw Bogart coming to the sidelines, he tilted his head and asked Koshiro:

"can we start?"

Geng Shilang stared at Mo Xingchen intently, with his lips slightly open, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

"of course."

Mo Xingchen drew his sword instantly, and three light golden sword auras flew towards Geng Shilang quickly. The horizontal sword aura in the middle was the fastest, while the crossed sword auras on the left and right sides were slightly slower, completely blocking Geng Shilang's escape route and forcing him to take it head-on.

Then Mo Xingchen walked slowly towards Geng Silang, with three sword energies coming out with every step. When Geng Silang received the second wave of sword energy, he realized something was wrong and thought it was all over.

Geng Shilang tried hard to take the first wave of sword energy, but found that although the sword energy was very fast, it was not powerful enough. However, when he took the second wave, the force was so great that it almost knocked his sword away. Before he could think about it, the third and fourth waves of sword energy followed one after another.

The power of each wave was different, or two waves were the same and then different, there was no pattern to grasp. If it continued like this, we could only passively defend until a fatal flaw was revealed.

So Koshiro decided to give it a try and break Mo Xingchen's attack rhythm. He used all his strength to swing a few sword energies and rushed forward without waiting for the result.

He thought that his sword energy could clear out Mo Xingchen's endless sword energy, and then he could seize the opportunity to attack at close range, but what he didn't expect was that

When he swung out the sword energy with all his strength, Mo Xingchen also moved towards him quickly, and even calculated the approximate trajectory of the sword energy just by his swinging of the sword. Then, with his great skill and courage, he used the sword energy to cover his body, and finally he even flashed the sword energy right next to his nose.

When Mo Xingchen's figure appeared in Koshiro's sight again, Mo Xingchen's sword was already on his neck, and his charge came to an abrupt halt.

The scene freezes, Koshiro says with a hint of grievance,

"Sir, don't you dislike sword energy?"

"I just despise the slow sword energy, not that I don't need it. I can practice it faster and add more changes. Besides, how can you have a fixed mindset towards your enemy?"
