One Piece: The Rise of the Murloc

Just when Koushiro was heartbroken and ready to fight Li Xiang with the will to die, Zoro suddenly coughed at the bottom of the pit. Koushiro heard the sound and was so happy that he couldn't even hold the sword and went to Zoro. When he rushed there, he saw Koushiro taking pills from his arms and feeding them into Zoro's mouth, and then he was about to carry Zoro back to the dojo to recover from his injuries. .

At this moment, Li Xiang suddenly stopped Koushiro.

"Koshiro, you are finally here, come and fight me."

Koushiro was stunned for a moment, then turned back to look for the sound.

When he saw Li's fighting eyes, Koushiro couldn't help but his pupils shrank suddenly.

But soon, Koushiro's expression returned to normal, he looked at the students aside and said, "Today's training ends here. Let's take Zoro back first."

Although Koushiro's tone was calm, it was a commanding tone.

Although the students were confused, when they saw the solemn look on Koushiro's face, they did not dare to ask too much and retreated one after another, taking away the unconscious Zoro.

When he saw the students walking away, Koushiro finally spoke, looked at Li Xiang and asked doubtfully, "This guest, don't you know why you came to Isshin Dojo?!"

"It's indeed something." Li Xiang nodded, and then sat casually in front of the tea table.

He poured himself a glass of water and took a sip.

"Well, yes, it is good tea, even better than the one provided to the Tianlong people. However, I prefer coffee to tea." Li Xiang said.

Koushiro is definitely not a simple guy. Li Xiang knew this before meeting Koshiro. "A swordsman who can cut nothing, but has the power to cut everything." Who can say that this kind of person who contains the philosophy of swordsmanship is a simple guy? !

It's obviously impossible. After meeting Koushiro himself, Li Xiang further confirmed his suspicion. This guy Koushiro... is definitely a great swordsman comparable to Hawkeye! ! No... maybe, stronger than Hawkeye, maybe. Although it was deeply hidden, as a great swordsman, Li Xiang could naturally feel Koushiro's suppressed edge! !

Even Koushiro couldn't stand Li Xiang's anti-customer attitude.

"Guest, you seem to be a little too proactive." Koushiro said.

"Oh?! Are you still pretending that you don't know me? Well, let me introduce myself first. My name is Li Xiang, now the head of the Shichibukai, I am also a great swordsman!!" Looking at Koushiro, Li I want to say calmly.

I didn't say he was the strongest in the world, because for a pure swordsman, a swordsman stronger than himself is more attractive than the strongest in the world.

Sure enough, after hearing Li Xiang's self-introduction, Koushiro's eyes flashed.

But he pretended to be surprised on his face and said, "I didn't expect it to be the Shichibukai! I didn't know you were here, what's the matter?!"

"Haha... Where are the revolutionary troops?!" Li Xiang asked bluntly.

And Koushiro in front of Li Xiang obviously did not expect that Li Xiang would ask such a question.

The panic in his eyes flashed away, and he continued to pretend to be confused and said, "Li Xiang, although I hide my strength and live in seclusion here, I don't know anything about the revolutionary army?!"

"Hey... aren't you ready to admit it?!" Li Xiang sighed and continued, "Yixin Dojo often delivers food to the revolutionary army in private. Do you think I don't know?! Repeatedly, if you have nothing to do with the revolutionary army, Then there is a ghost."

After hearing what Li Xiang said, Koushiro couldn't help but his expression changed drastically.

However, Li Xiang suddenly changed the topic and said, "Forget it, the revolutionary army will be the revolutionary army. Anyway, it is the world government that is overthrown, and it has nothing to do with me. I have other purposes for coming here this time." With that, Li Xiang pulled out his hand. Hyōrinmaru on the waist.

Pointing at Koushiro, he said, "Have a challenge with me, Koushiro."

Hearing Li Xiang's words, Koushiro's eyes flickered again and again, but finally dimmed and he said, "Although Koushiro has some strength, he can't compare with you. Koushiro lost this competition."

Obviously, Koushiro had many concerns and did not want to take action.

"No intention to fight?! If I force you to take action, the battle will probably be very disappointing." Li Xiang said helplessly. Frowning, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "By the way! No one else knows about the relationship between you and the Revolutionary Army except me. As long as you can fight me to your heart's content, no matter whether you win or lose, I will help you." How about you keep it a secret?!”

"Seriously?!" Koushiro asked in a deep voice with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Of course, seriously, do I need to deceive you?! Moreover, a duel between swordsmen! I will only use swordsmanship to fight you." Li Xiang continued.

As a swordsman, especially a great swordsman like Koushiro, how could he not want to compete with stronger swordsmen? ! For example, Hawkeye even spent two years teaching Sauron swordsmanship in order to have a fighting opponent.

The reason why Koushiro was unwilling to accept the challenge just now was because he was afraid of angering Li Xiang. Angry a great swordsman? ! Haha...the consequences are very terrifying.

"Well, I'm willing to fight you." Koushiro said solemnly.

"Please wait a moment. I haven't used a sword for a long time, and I have put away all the swords I carry with me." Koushiro said with a hint of shame.

"No problem." Li Xiang shrugged. Even though Koushiro hadn't used a sword for a long time, Li Xiang didn't doubt that Koushiro's swordsmanship would have deteriorated. At the level of a great swordsman, as long as his state of mind does not deteriorate, his swordsmanship will not deteriorate at all.

Koushiro walked into the inner room and walked out a few minutes later...

The same clothes, but Koushiro's temperament has undergone earth-shaking changes at this moment. Showing his sharp edge, this is the temperament a great swordsman should have! !

Apart from the temperament, there is another thing that is different from just now...

There is an extra long sword on Koushiro's waist! !

Just seeing the hilt, Li Xiang recognized this long sword in an instant. Among the twenty-one skills of the great sword - Hedao Yimoji! !

Even among the fast knives, it ranks among the top! !

At the same time, when this knife falls into Koushiro's hands, it gives people completely different feelings than when it falls into Zoro's hands. The former gives people a sense of harmony like a spring breeze, while the latter gives people a feeling of waste like a rude mountain man chopping wood. The former has hidden secrets. Edge, the latter shows its edge.

"Li Xiang, I kept you waiting for a long time." Koushiro bowed slightly and said.

"It's only a few minutes, not a long wait." Li Xiang said with a smile, "Besides, if I can compete with a great swordsman like you, it doesn't hurt to wait a few days."
