Pirate's Path of Destiny

"Kuina, you are the most talented, hardworking, and most powerful female swordsman I have ever seen. In my opinion, you will definitely become a great swordsman in the future."

Will began to look at the night sky. Even though the moon was shining brightly tonight, there were still a few stars shining brightly in the sky.

Guina blushed shyly when she heard what Will said.In the past, she was often praised, but most of them were praised behind her back for her swordsmanship. Few people like Will praised him face to face.

But soon her face turned cold again. This was probably just to comfort her.

Seeing Guina's expression, Will added.

"I'm not comforting you, but telling the truth. When I was your age, I couldn't even beat the children in the village.

You are only 10 years old now, and I am almost 17 years old. The age gap between us will inevitably bring about a gap in strength. If I can't even beat you, then how can I get the approval of Master Koushiro?"

After Guina heard these words, she felt a little more balanced in her heart, but her mood did not improve much. After all, the core problem had not been solved.

"You said...there is really no way for a female swordsman to become the world's best swordsman?"

Guina lowered her head, looked at her growing body, and continued:

"Father said that as girls' bodies develop, their physical strength will become increasingly unable to keep up with boys'. In the future, they will no longer be able to compete with male swordsmen, and it will be even more unrealistic to become great swordsmen..."

"Then if you give up now, won't you never be able to become the world's best swordsman? If you don't try, then how can you say you can't do it?"

Will interrupted Kuina's words of self-destruction. Seeing her wanting to give up easily, he couldn't help but become a little emotional.

After hearing Will's rebuttal question, Guina slowly felt confused again.

Will, who was sitting next to the stone, stood up, turned his back to the bright moon in the sky, and continued to say impassionedly:

"Guina, the world is very big, and there are many wonderful things in this world that you have never seen before.

After all, this is just a corner of the East China Sea. There are also four seas and the Grand Route. There are too many strong people in these places, many of whom are women. "

Guina listened in a daze on the sidelines, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, could there really be a woman who could become a strong person who dominated a party?

Seeing Kuina was a little moved, but still seemed a little unconvinced, Will continued to say loudly:

"Women can definitely become strong. Boa Hancock, the pirate empress of the Shichibukai who was just announced last year, didn't she become the overlord of the Grand Line as a woman?

As for swordsmen, there is a powerful female swordsman in the navy. Momotu Gion and her sword named Kinpira are a feared presence on the sea.

If you are willing to continue to work hard, one day you can become as strong as them, or even stronger, and challenge the title of the world's best swordsman.

Guina, I ask you now, are you willing to work hard for this goal?"

At this time, Guina had already been stunned by Will's words. She had never known that there were so many powerful women in the outside world.

Shuangyue Village is located in a remote place and can even be said to be isolated from the world. Most of the news comes from the port towns. You can also read the latest news from newspapers sold by Newsbirds passing by here from time to time.

She had heard of the Grand Line and the Shichibukai, but she didn't know what the Shichibukai actually meant.

However, seeing the well-informed Will's high praise, she probably understood that the woman named Empress might be really powerful, but compared to the Pirate Empress, she was more interested in Gion behind her.

After struggling in her heart for a long time, Guina asked in a low voice:

"That female swordsman named Gion, is she really... stronger than the male swordsman?"

"Yes"

Looking at Will who was trying to enlighten her, Guina, who received a positive reply, grinned lightly and quickly returned to her usual iceberg expression. No one seemed to notice it in this night.

"I know, I will definitely become the world's best swordsman to show you."

After saying these words, Guina pursed her thin lips, turned around and walked towards the dojo.

Will, who stayed where he was, seemed to want to say something more, but Guina seemed to have almost figured it out and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The empress has indeed become a Shichibukai, and this is known to the world.But after all, he was not a strong swordsman, so he had to pull out the powerful female swordsman Gion.

As for whether Gion is as strong as she said, he doesn't know. Anyway, it is unlikely that the two of them will meet in the future.

Will slowly sat down, savoring what Guina had just said.

"Will you definitely become the number one in the world?"

Sitting on the grass, he laughed, and his laughter echoed in the mountains.

In the dojo, Koushiro, who had been staring here, also smiled, closed the window and returned to the house with peace of mind.

......

Many days have passed since that night, and everyone is still living as usual, as if nothing happened.

Kuina still accepts Sauron's challenges every day and is still so cold.

If Guina hadn't subconsciously turned her head away every time she saw Will, Will would have even thought that he had just dreamed about it.

Jino still follows the team from Shuangyue Village to the port every week for purchasing, and at the same time secretly collects various intelligence on the black market.

The days seemed to go on peacefully like this, until one day in summer.

Will and Jino went to the dojo from the bottom of the mountain as usual every morning. During their daily walks in the mountains, they would force their feet suddenly from time to time, stepping on the ground several times in a short period of time, and sprint forward like lightning.

If there are pirates or marines here, they will definitely recognize that this is the shaving in the Sixth Marine Style.

After about half a year of practice, Will and Jino are no longer as good as before. They are already very skilled in shaving in the six postures.

Within a moment, the two of them had arrived at the entrance of the dojo.At this time, the children in the dojo gathered together and made some noise, and the scene seemed very chaotic.

When the two Wills approached the door, the children inside saw them and immediately surrounded them, chattering into a group.

"Hey, Brother Will, are you really the biggest pirate on the sea?"

"Is it really you who are wanted by Navy Branch 153?"

"Brother Jino, can you teach me your secrets to becoming stronger?"

Will, who was surrounded by everyone, felt a little numb, and he still didn't know what happened, while Gino on the other side screamed in his heart, "Oh no, something went wrong after all."
