The pirate's crazy sword soul

"Are you okay, Smoker?"

Zefa trotted over to help Smoker up, but just after running a few steps, he saw Smoker stand up from the ground, looked at Yongen with a fierce expression and said:

"Father!"

Zefa: ┏(゜ロ゜;)┛

All naval soldiers: ∑(っ°Д°;)っ

After the words fell, in everyone's astonished eyes, Smoker turned his back and disappeared in an instant.

...

The next day.

Base canteen.

"Hey, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"Smorg had a sparring match with Yongen yesterday, but they didn't fight. In the end, he called that little bitch to kiss your lord in public."

"real or fake?"

Some people covered their mouths in surprise.

Some people were confused: "Who is Smoker?"

"You don't know? He just joined the navy last year, the strongest recruit of the 1506th class, and a disciple personally recruited by General Zefa."

"so smart?"

Someone opened their mouths wide, showing an expression of great admiration, and then asked: "Who is Yongen?"

"Yongen? Yongen is the adopted son of General Akainu... No, you are new here?"

"Yes, we are recruits from class 1507!"

"Hello seniors!"

A group of navy recruits gave a military salute to their seniors and shouted with enthusiasm.

It is now January 1507 in the Hainan calendar, and there are still about 1 years before Luffy goes to sea. In this year, Akainu has just become a general, and the Warring States Period has not yet been promoted to marshal. Zefa also retains his rank of general. The Navy Headquarters is responsible for selecting some highly talented recruits for training.

Aoji and Kizaru are still only lieutenant generals, and the titles of the three navy admirals have not been achieved at sea. But the good news is that in recent years, except for the three emperors of the new world, the new pirate forces have basically no influence on the government structure. Without any threat, the two sides are still in a state of mutual restraint, and the balance has not been broken so far.

"It seems that General Akainu is indeed much stronger than General Zefa..."

"Isn't it obvious that General Zefa is older, and General Akainu is still young, so there must be some gap in strength."

"But you know, General Akainu was taught by General Zefa."

The soldiers were still talking quietly.

But soon, the topic changed from the strength of the two generals to a debate about whether the peak Zefa could be evenly matched with the current Akainu.

There's no way, who makes Yongen and Smoker's "faction" so obvious?

Compared with the competition between apprentices, this seems more like a competition between Zefa and Akainu. Of course, Akainu definitely has no idea in this regard. As for Zefa...

Being able to take Smoker to the training ground to actively provoke Yongen, it is most likely that he often hears people saying that he is not as strong as Akainu, so he resorted to such a trick, hoping to make Smoker give Yongen a fight. Take a look at some color.

It would be fine to say that he is not as good as Sengoku, but he is not as good as Akainu. Which master can accept someone saying that he is not as good as his apprentice?

But what Zefa didn't expect was that Smoker would lose so completely.

Even judging from the battle process, the two were not at the same level at all.

This made Zefa highly suspicious of his own education methods.

Maybe he should be a little tougher on Smoker.

...

It’s still a training ground.

Swish!

Swish-swish-!

The sound of wooden swords cutting through the air continued to sound.

With each strike of the sword, sweat was thrown off, shining in waves under the dazzling sunlight.

After a long time.

[Wind Control Swordsmanship (Elementary): 2000/2000]

[Congratulations, your wind-controlling swordsmanship has been upgraded to intermediate level! 】

[Wind Control Swordsmanship (Intermediate): 0/5000]

"call!"

After exhaling, Yongen wiped the sweat from his face, picked up the water bottle from the side steps, and took a swig of fifteen gulps into his mouth.

"Hiccup~~!"

"I finally got promoted to the intermediate level..."

The moment the prompt popped up, some strange changes occurred in his hands holding the two wooden swords tightly.

It was as if the bond with the sword had deepened again. The strange sense of fit almost made him forget that he still had two swords in his hand.

Swish!

He casually swung his sword forward again, and the howling sound of the wind was more obvious than the previous times, making Yongen's mouth corners slightly raised involuntarily.

"The way of exerting force seems to have changed somewhat..."

The power is much greater than before.

The understanding of swordsmanship skills in his mind also seemed to have grown tremendously.

"Is this the intermediate level of wind-controlling swordsmanship?"

Glancing at the numbers on the system panel, if he really continues to practice at this speed, it won't be long before he can practice the Wind Control Swordsmanship to the full level, right?

However, the fact is that after Yongen slashed the wooden sword a hundred times, the number on the panel did not change at all, it was still [0/5000].

"How is this going?"

Yongen frowned immediately.

Could it be that after upgrading, the number of required sword swings also increases?

With a trying attitude, he continued to raise his sword and swing it forward.

"490 eight...490 nine...five hundred..."

[Wind Control Swordsmanship (Intermediate): 1/5000]

silence.

The corners of Yongen's mouth began to twitch involuntarily.

Swinging a sword five hundred times will gain you some swordsmanship experience?

It’s five times better than when I was a beginner..

What about when you get to the advanced level?

ten times?

Or 25 times?

When he thought that he might have to swing his sword [-] times before gaining only a little sword experience, Yongen subconsciously felt a pain in his balls.

But this is nothing, at least he can figure out how to upgrade the wind-controlling swordsmanship, but how to improve the hero level displayed in the system?

His eyes focused on the [0/20] character experience value.

"According to the upgrade rules in LOL, is it possible that I have to kill twenty people before I can successfully upgrade to level two and unlock my W or E skills?"

"But if this is really the case, how many people would have to be killed if you want to successfully upgrade to level [-]?"

Even in today's world, where the sea is full of vicious pirates, Yongen still feels a headache.

After all, he doesn't want to become a murderous person.

After thinking for a moment and feeling the soreness in his arms from swinging the sword thousands of times, Yongen put away his sword, turned and left the field.

...

a few days later.

The first floor of the headquarters base.

A long queue stretched from the front of the vault to the entrance of the base.

Today is the day when the Navy distributes their monthly wages. As a private, Yongen was naturally in the long queue.

However, more than half an hour passed, and the moment Yongen reached out and took the money bag...

【Ding! 】
