Traveling Merchant On The Grand Line

Shimotsuki town.

Seymour Chiki Village.

About two months ago.

There is a small shop selling knives in the village.

The store manager is a very handsome and good-looking silver-haired boy. On the day he came, it is said that the little girls, young girls, wives and old women in the whole village came to take a look. Unknown.

The young store manager is a nice guy.

Although the knives sold are expensive, few people in small towns can afford them.

But as long as there are guests, they will be very warmly received. From time to time, they will treat the children to eat some delicious food and let them touch the jaws of the real knife, so they are very popular among the villagers and children.

But there is one oddity.

He will often close the shop.

Sometimes only four or five days a month.

When the store is closed.

Many children who want to eat and drink, and touch the real knife by the way, are looking forward to it every day.

Once the store opens.

Children from the entire Shimotsuki village flock there.

this day.

Isshin Sword Gym in the town of Shimotsuki.

A little boy with a green algae head is holding a bamboo sword, practicing hard to swing.

Several boys who were resting at the side whispered to each other.

"Hello! Did you hear that? The store manager is back."

"Really?!"

"It seems to be true. I heard that Kuina has passed away."

"Then let's finish the practice as soon as possible! If we go late, maybe the door will be closed again."

The little boy with green algae head stopped when he heard Kuina's name.

He turned to look at them, wondering: "What are you talking about? Where did Kuina go?"

"Hey, Zoro, don't you even know that?"

"You guys have been thinking about defeating Kuina all day long, have you practiced your madness?"

"Don't, don't be long-winded! Anyway, tell me quickly!"

"I really can't do anything about you."

So almost everyone told Zoro about the knife shop.

It was the first time Zoro had heard of it.

"298, 299, 300! Good!"

After practicing today's knife swing.

He hurried out of the dojo and ran towards the location they said!

"That guy Kuina!! He didn't even tell me about such a good place! I also want to touch the real sword more!!"

When Zoro ran to the shop panting, it was already dusk, and the sunset in the sky was as red as blood.

The knife shop stands next to the farmland road. It is a small but charming shop.

Although it was already evening, there were still many children staying here.

Zoro was just about to take a step towards the store.

A voice came from the shop.

"Okay, it's getting late today, I'm about to close the store, you all go back early, come back tomorrow."

"Don't worry your parents."

"Eh--"

The children made displeased noises, but obediently walked out of the store.

At this time, Zoro also saw the appearance of the store manager.

He looked very young, fifteen or six years old.

Silver hair, well-proportioned figure, taller than his master Koshiro, looks...

Even though Zoro didn't want to admit it, he did look a lot handsomer than himself.

Feel the gaze.

Kahn raised his head and saw the firm brow and eyes standing on the road in the field at a glance. He looked like a stubborn green algae-headed kid.

Kuina, standing beside Kahn, also saw him.

"Zoro?"

"Yo... Yo!"

Zoro said with a stiff tone: "You are not practicing swords in the dojo, what are you doing here? If you are easily defeated by me in the next competition, I, I will not forgive you."

"Then wait until you defeat me, Zoro, you don't seem to have defeated me once, do you?"

Zoro blushed when he heard this, and said unconvinced: "Go, next time you will win!"

"Are you Zoro?"

Zoro looked up at Kahn, "You know me?"

"I heard Kuina say a lot about you, hello, my name is Kahn."

Looking at Kahn with a gentle smile, he stretched out his hand towards himself.

Zoro wiped his hands on his clothes, then reached out and shook him.

"I am Roronoa. Zoro."

Zoro said, let go of his hand, looked up at him, and said with a trace of war in his eyes: "Are you a knife seller? Are you good at swordsmanship?"

Kahn said with a smile: "No one said that anyone who sells knives must be a master of swordsmanship? In fact, my swordsmanship is really not very good."

That's all it takes to reach the realm of the swordsman who listens to the breath of all things.

Zoro thought for a moment.

makes sense.

He turned to Kahn and asked, "So what good knives do you have here?"

Kuina: "Hey, Zoro, don't be too rude."

Kahn smiled and said, "It's okay."

He looked around, and the children were almost gone.

"For the sake of you being Kuina's friend, let you come in and take a look."

talking.

He turned and walked into the shop.

Zoro also followed in.

Seeing this, Kuina had no choice but to follow.

Walk into the store.

Kahn turns on the light.

The scene in front of him made Zoro couldn't help opening his eyes wide.

I see.

On the knife racks on the walls around the small shop, there are real knives with sheaths hanging all over, the number is at least a hundred or more.

Zoro opened his mouth wide and said in a daze, "It's amazing."

Kahn smiled and said, "Do you want to take a look?"

Zoro was taken aback, "Can I?"

"Normally, it's not okay. I'm afraid that children will accidentally hurt themselves or others when they pull out their knives, but you shouldn't worry about it."

As Kahn spoke, he took a long sheath knife from the wall and handed it to Zoro, "Here."

Zoro took it with both hands, looking a little nervous.

It was his first time touching a real knife.

I used bamboo swords in the dojo before.

Just took it.

He dropped his hands down.

"Good weight."

"Hahaha."

Kuina folded his arms and smiled at the side: "Zoro, the feeling of a real sword and a bamboo sword are completely different, right? With your strength, it's a hundred years too early to use a real sword."

Zoro, who was holding a real knife, was not moved by her words at all, and his attention was completely attracted by the knife in his hand.

"This is the real knife..."

He grabbed the handle of the knife and slowly pulled it out.

"Zheng."

A cold light lit up in front of his eyes.

Zoro stared intently at the slender blade and sharp blade.

"What's the name of this knife?"

Kahn smiled and said, "Chunlei."

"Although it is not one of the 50 craftsmen of Liang Kuai Knife, it is still a good knife made by a famous craftsman."

"spring thunder……"

Zoro's eyes were filled with love.

If he could own such a knife, he might wake up laughing when he sleeps.

And what he didn't know was.

Each of the three knives he owns, who will grow into a great swordsman in the future, is one of the 21 masters of the big fast knife.

Zoro reluctantly sheathed the knife and returned it to Kahn.

Although he knew that he would never be able to afford it, he still couldn't help asking the price.

Kahn said a number.

Zoro opened his mouth wide.

Well, so expensive——! !
