One Piece: One Hundred Ghosts at Night

Ignoring the old man's request, Shigure, who was going berserk, came to Nura Liban's figure.

"How long has it been?"

Shigure thought, maybe it is very strange for a sword to be able to "think".

But it is true that Shigure has his own thoughts.

When did it start?

When did this awareness begin to exist?

I don’t know, and I don’t need to know, because I am just a sword.

As a sword, as long as you know how to kill the enemy, it will become more powerful.

So, the question is, how to become strong.

Throughout its life as a knife, this is the question it has always been thinking about.

Then, he met his first master.

Shigure couldn't remember exactly what kind of person he was.

The only thing that can be remembered clearly is his smile. It was a very silly smile, and everyone around him said so.

Those who stood around him called him "idiot."

Maybe it's because he's an idiot

There was obviously a boatload of people choosing weapons, but he waited for others to finish choosing before choosing the only one left.

A dull knife that was almost rusty.

And after getting such a dull knife like him, he still smiled stupidly and took good care of it.

Although he took good care of it, he never used this blunt knife in combat.

Then, probably a long time later, he used his dull knife in battle for the first time.

Even though a long time has passed, I can still remember the scene clearly.

At that time, he was kneeling on the ground, and the silly smile of the past was no longer on his face, replaced by a dead expression.

There were corpses strewn around him, those who had once stood beside him.

The people who once called him a fool, the people who once fought alongside him.

But now they are all lying around him, and they will no longer get up and jokingly call him a fool.

And in the center of these corpses was him, and the corpses were surrounded by people standing in a circle around him.

It has been said that a skilled swordsman can feel the mood and emotions of the sword.

Maybe the reverse is also true.

Anyway, when he held me, I could feel the deep sadness, pain, self-blame, anger and the madness that wanted to destroy everything.

Immediately afterwards, a heavy rain suddenly fell from the sky without warning.

The moment the heavy rain falls.

When the battle was about to break out, he jumped up and faced the people who surrounded him with a fatal determination. With this blunt knife, he launched a fierce attack on the enemy in front.

It was at this moment that everything became different.

Both he and the dull knife felt different.

The moment he wielded the knife, the heavy rain in the sky no longer hindered him, but instead helped him.

The heavy rain in the sky wrapped around the dull knife in a strange shape, as if the dull knife had some attraction.

But it was this change that allowed an ordinary assault to exert a power far beyond imagination.

This assault completely dispersed the original siege formation.

Moreover, the unlucky guy who faced the assault became like a piece of rag under the impact of the heavy rain.

Covered by the heavy rain, and with the help, he undoubtedly turned the original battle into an absolute reversal.

What followed was a one-sided killing. The heavy rain covered up the tragic scene caused by the killing. Only from time to time, patches of scarlet blood mist appeared under the rain curtain formed by the heavy rain.

When the battle was over, he was the only one standing, and he was broken into two pieces during the battle.

The heavy rain stopped, and the corpses on the original battlefield had disappeared, leaving only those who lost their lives in the heavy rain lying silently on the ground.

At the same time, he witnessed and experienced Shigure's first display of edge.

Then, the world lost a silly young man who loved to giggle, and gained a cold young swordsman who was known throughout the sea.

The original dull sword was also recast, and after forging it became the sword of the ruthless young swordsman Shigure.

Perhaps this is the best outcome for Shigure.

But I don’t know why, I miss it a little bit.

That smile.

This thought flashed through Shigure's mind.

Then, when the young man grows old, it becomes difficult to wield Shigure anymore.

The young man returned to his hometown and established his own school.

Named "Shi Yu Cang Yan Liu".

And the first move he used during that rainstorm is now his strongest move.

axle rain

passed down.

But only this trick was passed down.

Let the successors create their own second style of "Shigure Cangyan Ryu"

And ordered the successors to prove their swordsmanship by claiming to be the "strongest swordsman".

Use this to hone your successors.

At the same time, after his death, the strongest person in the school will get his own sword, Shigure.

The order was passed down from generation to generation.

Finally, before dying, he died alone, sitting opposite Shigure.

When he was about to die, he looked at Shigure and showed the same silly smile he had shown in front of his friends before.

"Shigure, thank you for staying with me for so long."

In this way, Shigure spent his life with his first master.

Then, it repeated itself again, following different owners.

Then there is constant fighting and constant getting stronger.

It's like reincarnation.

The only thing that changed was that from the beginning, people from the "Shigure Cangyan Ryu" chose its master, and then slowly it became Shigure himself who chose the people who were qualified to use him.

As Shigure continues to grow stronger, the requirements for selecting a master gradually become more stringent.

Back to reality.

Just now, Shigure rarely fell into the memories of the past. Recalling the past is extremely rare for Shigure. After all, although he has his own thoughts, he is not as sentimental as humans.

After all, Shigure is still a weapon no matter what.

Maybe it's because there hasn't been a user for a long time. After all, Shigure is too strong now. For about a hundred or two hundred years, no one has been able to meet Shigure's requirements.

Or maybe it was the weak being in front of him who could hardly withstand even Shigure's momentum, but his whole body exuded a feeling that made Shigure afraid and made him surrender.

"However, how can such a weak guy be qualified to be his master? I absolutely do not agree. Moreover, I have waited too long and I don't want to wait any longer."

Shigure thought this and did the same at the same time.

Holding the phantom of Shigure, he instantly turned the thick water vapor around him into water and swirled it onto the sword blade, and then launched an attack on Nura Koiban at an extremely fast speed.

"The Attack Type 1 Axis Rain."
