Pirate: Nami! Give me back my Berry!

The next morning, before the sun came out, a few little kids got up anxiously.

Although Koshiro said that they could sleep a little longer, these little guys knew clearly that laziness was not a good thing. Moreover, after this incident, they also realized that they were still far from being good enough!

When Zoro and Kuina met in the early morning, he immediately noticed something was wrong.

He keenly felt that Kuina's aura had become stronger. This change was so obvious that it seemed as if he could feel it directly!

Therefore, Zoro worked harder than ever in today's training. He didn't want the gap between him and Kuina to widen...

In the back mountain, several children were already practicing on their own, and even Nami started to take it seriously this time.

"Daisy, you have just started practicing, don't be too anxious. We are still young, and as long as we keep exercising, you will definitely get stronger in the future." Ling Yan couldn't help but say worriedly when he saw that Daisy suddenly increased her training volume several times.

But Daisy shook her head firmly and said through gritted teeth: "I can do it!"

Since returning from this mission, Dessa has come to realize her own weakness.

She knew very well that if she couldn't help at all in the battle, wouldn't she be useless? She didn't want to become like that! Desha was full of reluctance and determination, clenching her fists tightly, with unyielding determination in her eyes.

She wants to prove her worth with her actual actions and no longer be the weakling who can only watch from the sidelines. No matter how difficult it is, she will grit her teeth and persevere, working hard towards the goal of becoming stronger.

Seeing Daisy's stubborn expression, Ling Yan stopped trying to persuade her.

He knew that the other girls' training had also been increased a lot, and suddenly he felt a little worried. Although the people in this world could not be corrupted by training, the nutrition had to keep up as the training became more intense, so he had already set his sights on the King of the Near Sea!

"Oh...how should I deal with it..." Ling Yan had a headache. His ability was not suitable for fishing.

At night, Captain Gulachi called and told Ling Yan that their navy had withdrawn, which made Ling Yan and Nami feel much more relieved. Although Garp was a stupid person, he was too strong and Ling Yan didn't want to deal with him yet.

After dinner, the children went back to their rooms to wash up and rest, but Guina did not come back. She wanted to talk to her father about something.

In the corridor of the courtyard, Koshiro and Kuina were kneeling in front of a tea table. Koshiro looked at Kuina with a serious look, while Kuina's face was full of stubbornness and certainty.

"Kuina, have you really thought it through?" Koshiro's tone was serious.

"Yes, father. After this battle, I found that only actual combat can bring my kendo skills to a higher level, so I will never give up!" Kuina said firmly.

Koshiro had a headache. On the one hand, Kuina was still young and it was far from her adulthood. On the other hand, Kuina's goal was to become the strongest in the world, and Koshiro was not optimistic about this.

But looking at Kuina's determined eyes, his thoughts began to waver.

For a moment, both father and daughter were silent.

After a few minutes of silence, Koshiro narrowed his eyes, revealed a doting smile, and said, "Kuina, father promised that you can go to sea early, but father has a condition!"

"You say!" Kuina's face was full of excitement.

"Take care of yourself and don't get hurt too much, otherwise your father will worry..." Koshiro said gently.

"Father~"

..........

Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

"Mr. Koshiro, thank you for your teaching during this period. We have learned a lot of kendo knowledge!" At the entrance of Isshin Dojo, Ling Yan and the other three were saying goodbye to Koshiro.

"Hehe~ No need to thank me, you are all good kids, keep it up, I hope to hear your names on the sea in the future!" Koshiro encouraged the children, he really liked these children, each of them was excellent.

"Most definitely!"

"That's right, Mr. Koshiro, you will definitely hear my name on the sea in the future!"

"We will work hard!"

The children spoke one after another, their tone full of confidence!

After saying goodbye to Geng Shilang, Ling Yan and the other three children began to walk slowly back and out of the scope of Yixin Dojo. Everyone looked back frequently, with reluctance and expectation in their eyes.

"Let's go!"

"We have to hurry to Clover Island. Captain Gulachi and the others are still waiting for us..." Ling Yan said with a long sigh.

"Ling Yan~" Nami looked at Ling Yan, her sad little face made her look like she was about to cry.

"Ling Yan, how about... let's wait a little longer~" Nojigao also said.

"Wow~~ Ling Yan, why doesn't Kuina come with us? We are already partners..." Dessa burst into tears.

"Don't cry, Guina is not an adult yet and cannot go to sea. Believe me, we will meet again in the future, on the sea!" Ling Yan said firmly.

After saying that, several children continued to head towards the back mountain, but there was a sense of reluctance to part with their friends in the air.

"Ling Yan, Nami... why are you so slow? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Suddenly a voice was heard.

Ling Yan and a few others looked up the mountain in surprise, and when they saw the little figure carrying a backpack and holding the Wadō Ichimonji, excitement appeared on everyone's face, and they were extremely happy.

"Guina!!!" Ling Yan and others immediately ran towards Guina, shouting excitedly, their voices echoing in the mountains.

"Asshole, I thought you wouldn't go with us!" Nami was so excited that she choked up.

"Wow, Kuina, we can be together forever from now on~~~" Dessa rushed to Kuina and hugged her tightly, tears streaming down her face.

The other three also rushed forward and surrounded Kuina, releasing their inner joy and excitement.

"We are partners~ Of course I have to go with you! Hehehe..." Kuina's face was filled with a bright smile. She had never felt so happy before.

She took a deep breath, feeling the breath of freedom in the air. It was a wonderful feeling that could not be described in words.

It turned out that Guina had already set off in advance and arrived at the mountain first.

But before going up the mountain, she went to find Zoro and had a farewell duel - the 2002nd battle! After this fierce battle, the winner was still Kuina!

It's just that the outcome of the battle no longer matters.

The two made a promise to meet again on the vast ocean in the future and compete with each other then!

At this moment, Kuina is looking forward to the future and is about to embark on a new journey with her companions. What awaits them ahead are endless possibilities...

Somewhere in the mountains, Zoro looked up at the Phoenix slowly going away and shouted, "Kuina, don't lose!"
