Pirate Merchant

Although a celebration banquet was held in Windmill Village last night, after returning to Frost Moon Village, the sailors spontaneously got busy in the square again, preparing to hold a bonfire party at night.

The women in the village are busy moving their own vegetables to the square, while the men spontaneously go hunting and fishing in the forest, while the children are doing their best to make trouble in all parts of the village. with.

Hehe, Shuangyue Village hasn't been this lively for a long time.

As night falls, in the square filled with all kinds of prey and fish, the villagers play simple songs with the musical instruments handed down from their ancestors. No matter men, women, old or young, they stand shoulder-to-shoulder and sing ceremonially. the ballad.

Koshiro, who is highly respected in Shimotsuki Village, sat on a broad leaf on the edge of the square and sipped sake. He had been smiling all the time, and his cheeks became more gentle under the firelight.

Yeah, in the past few years, everyone rarely laughed like this. Now life will only get better and better. After all, less than one-tenth of the oranges we plant are sold.

Mu Qian, who was sitting next to Koshiro, picked up the jug and filled it up for Koshiro who put down the wine glass. He had great respect for Koshiro, the master.

I don't really know how to make money, but no matter what, as long as it can bring everyone a smile from the heart is a good thing.

Koshiro raised his hand to clink with Mu Qian who was holding a wine glass in both hands. Every time he talked with this disciple, he couldn't help nodding his head in recognition of his thoughts and vision.

I heard that you refused Sauron to go to sea with you? Did you not encounter pirates at sea?

Koshiro raised his head and drank the sake and put down the glass, holding his hands on his lower abdomen, looking at Mu Qian who picked up the drinking utensils and poured wine into his glass, and asked Mu Qian with a smile like an elder who was worried about his junior being bullied outside.

Sauron, he was sent by you, the master? Well~ I haven't met the villains, and they can't catch up with us. If we meet them, we will make money with kindness. With Sauron, who is still very rebellious and proud, sometimes Any good business that has to be taken a step back will be ruined by him.

Mu Qian shook his head and returned, he didn't know that Sauron was the bodyguard sent by Koshiro to protect him from going out to sea, but even if he knew, he would refuse to let Sauron board the boat.

Hehe, indeed, it's good to let Sauron go out to practice alone. His arrogance, which is harmful to swordsmen, really needs to be tempered. I am looking forward to having a swordsman to let him see what is beyond the sky. On the contrary, it is you, a little bit of arrogance is good for your swordsmanship.

The glasses reflect the bonfire and the singing and dancing. Koshiro, a resident, is drinking sake leisurely like a retired old man, but the words on his mouth are the words taught by the master to his disciples.

Well~ swordsmanship or something, it's a matter of course. Sauron and Kuina are famous for Yixin Dojo. It's good for me to benefit from their fame. In fact, I can deal with Sauron's amazingly lethal swordsmanship. I'm not interested, what I'm interested in is your master's technique of 'If you don't want to cut, you can cut even the paper'.

Mu Qian shook his head and replied to Koshiro.

Moreover, his fruiting ability depends on his mood. If his emotions are too agitated, then the temperature will rise with his mood changes. If he becomes extremely calm, then the temperature will also increase with his calmness. And slipped lower.

His ability is not good if he is too enthusiastic, nor is he too calm, so Mu Qian has been restraining and tempering his temper and character.

Moreover, while the fruit ability affects temperature due to emotion, temperature will also reversely affect Mu Qian's emotion.

If you can't control your emotions stably, the temperature around Mu Qian will rise or fall uncontrollably. His old favorite phrase 'I'm on fire! ’ will actually happen.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight, but he doesn't want to fight, because once he wants to fight for something, his fruit ability will immediately respond strongly to his mood, making the surroundings extremely hot, and when he concentrates on winning , the fruit ability will strongly respond to him turning the surrounding temperature into a severe cold that freezes everything.

Hahaha, a swordsman who doesn't cut anything? It's a great idea, let's practice day after day, Mu, with your talent, it's enough to become a world-renowned swordsman, and the world's number one ranking is only It's just a ranking, the sword in the hands of a swordsman is not just for the pursuit of fame and fortune, just like the sword in your 'hand'.

Koshiro, with his hands in his kimono, laughed happily. Mu Qian's answer made him really happy. It is the fate of a swordsman to honor his name and despise death, but he also wants to see different kendo abilities. how far in this world.

Then, why are you holding the 'sword' tightly in your hand?

Koshiro opened his eyes slightly, and asked Mu Qian gently and expectantly.

Hold tightly for freedom and friends. When they are defiled by others, I will definitely incarnate as Shura and let them drink defeat and death.

Looking at Koshiro's expectant eyes, Mu Qian, who was sitting on the wide leaves while hanging around, immediately sat up straight, and replied very seriously to Koshiro, who was smiling and kind.

Answer without hesitation, freedom and friends? Hehe, I can feel the hotness and coldness in your heart at this moment. You are calmer than Kuina and more self-disciplined than Sauron. Unfortunately, you lack Compared with them, you are too clever.”

Koshiro shook his head with a smile and said regretfully.

'No. 1 in the world' has nothing to do with you, but you are more than enough to protect yourself. Among the three of you, you are the only one who makes me worry the most.

Koshiro, who turned back to squinting, turned his eyes away from Mu Qian, and looked at the singing and dancing residents,

This kid never thought of being number one in the world, and his regrets were useless.

Actually, Master, I have something I want to ask you to do.

Mu Qian, who was praised by Koshiro, said to Koshiro, who was in a good mood at this time, with an embarrassed smile.

Tell me, what do you want from me?

Koshiro, who was in a great mood, agreed without hesitation.

It's not a big deal, it's just hard work, master, you can recruit more disciples and teach a few more great swordsmen. After that, Kuina and Zoro will definitely be famous, and there must be many young people who come to Yixin Dojo to learn. , I don’t want Master to help me recruit people, you just need to tell me which ones you like.”

Mu Qian rubbed his hands and said to Koshiro with an embarrassed look.

Teaching students is the job of the owner of the museum. If students are willing to ask for advice, I am naturally willing to teach, but I can only teach swords. I don't know people. If you have the ability to deceive your juniors and sisters, that is you. The ability, also has nothing to do with me.

Koshiro looked at Mu Qian who was playing tricks with him, pulled out his hand from his sleeve, picked up the sake he poured for himself, drank it, and answered while answering, which was considered a tacit approval of Mu Qian's taking his disciples from the Yixin Dojo to go to sea.

How can it be called cheating? As a senior brother, it is also my duty to bring my juniors and sisters to earn money and reputation. When the caravan grows stronger, countless pirates will automatically come to the door for the juniors and sisters to experience. I'm doing it for their own good.

After Koshiro tacitly allowed himself to take people away in the Yixin Dojo, Mu Qian's head became lively. A group of swordsmen lined up on the deck were slashing sword waves at the pirate ship. He reckoned that he had something Opportunity saw it.
