Pirate: This shooter is a bit fierce
Chapter 28 Confrontation
Darrow pushed open the wooden door of the tea room and walked in.
In the tea room, a middle-aged man was kneeling in front of the coffee table making tea.
I saw him place the tea bowl in front of the silk yarn, and then began to brew with rigorous and elegant movements.
Taking advantage of this gap, Darrow began to look at Izumi's performance in front of him.
Sword-browed and star-eyed, dressed in a white kimono, with a fist-wide black belt wrapped around his waist, and two red scabbard knives, one long and one short, pinned to the belt.
"Mr. Darrow, please sit down."
Izumi Ji spoke first and motioned Darrow to sit down.
Sitting Da Luo didn't speak in a hurry, but quietly watched Izumiji making tea in front of him, as if he didn't come here to ask questions about his teacher today, but to drink tea with an old friend for a while.
After a while, the fragrance of tea wafted away, filling the whole tea room.
"Tea is ready, please."
Izumi passed the tea bowl to Darrow.
Taking the tea bowl with both hands, Darrow took a sip gently.
Well, it's a bit bitter.
Darrow, who was used to drinking, was a little unaccustomed to the taste of this tea, it was too bland. Sure enough, he still drank some wine, and drinking tea in Pirate World was really a bit weird.
"Mr. Darrow, is there a lot of excitement in the sword hall today? What's the matter?" Seeing that Darrow finished drinking, Izumi Ji said slowly.
Although the tone was not harsh and the speed of speech was not fast, he took the lead in asking questions and labeled Darrow as vexatious.
Darrow put the tea bowl back on the tea table, and said: "My boy is new here, and he opened a new tavern on this island, but for some reason, the disciples of the Guijian Pavilion gathered a crowd to make trouble in my tavern, causing heavy losses to my tavern. Ask, is there any misunderstanding in this?"
"Oh, I didn't know that my disciple went to the master's tavern to make trouble."
"Old fox, I just want to pick myself out in a few words." Darrow didn't believe that He Quanji would not know about this, and slandered in his heart, without his instigation, would the apprentices of the sword hall dare to be so arrogant.
"The owner doesn't know. I opened a new tavern at the opposite door of the Kananding Sword Gym. Yesterday, people from your sword Gym came to my tavern for no reason to make trouble. Not only the business was affected, but also suffered heavy losses."
"According to what I heard, there is a long-standing grievance between the Guijian Gym and the Kananding Gym. The people in the Gymnasium were also instigated to make trouble, and some disciples behaved pervertedly on weekdays, using the name of the owner to commit crimes. My tavern is just It’s just that the fish in the pond were brought into trouble.”
Darrow pointed it out directly, and secretly pointed out that the apprentices were instigated to make trouble.
"It turns out that I was negligent in discipline and caused trouble for Mr. Darrow." Izumi said with a face of shame. At the same time, he supported the red long knife hanging on his waist with both hands, and secretly moved Aimed at Darrow's head.
Of course, this small movement did not escape Darrow's eyes. Darrow adjusted his sitting posture to avoid his vital points.
This is not an extravagant move by Daro. Japanese kendo is a killing technique after all, and there are murderous intentions everywhere.
Even sneak attack is not uncommon in kendo, and it has become a genre, that is, the famous Iai.
Iaido is a tactic that wins in an instant by drawing and cutting the opponent from a static sitting position or a dynamic standing position. It sounds nice, but in fact it is just a surprise attack.
Therefore, when facing a swordsman, you must always be careful not to show your flaws, otherwise the opponent will suddenly violently attack you, and you will have nowhere to cry.
Fortunately, Darrow possessed such a powerful sense of knowledge, such a small action could not escape Darrow's perception.
"Huh." Seeing that his temptation didn't work, Izumi exclaimed, and then slowly said: "The Kanesada Sword Gym was originally my family's ancestral property, but I hate that Izumi Liqian deceived my father by relying on his smooth tongue. Deceived the family's sword hall and sword manual.
"Later, I was so angry that I wanted to go to the door to ask for an explanation, but he didn't come out. In desperation, I had to ask the apprentice to block him at the door and force him to come out."
"I didn't expect that the apprentices under him were so unruly, and they brought disaster to the tavern of the master. It really shouldn't be."
Darrow didn't come to listen to the story. The problem in the tavern had to be resolved, so he said, "Since this is the case, there is a grievance and a debtor. Please also ask the owner of the tavern to restrain his apprentices so as not to harm the fish in the pond."
"That's natural."
……
Since he got Izumi Ji's promise, Darrow didn't want to stay here either, so after staying for a while, he got up and left.
Darrow really can't stand Izumi Ji's appearance of submissiveness. He has lived in Pirate World for 16 years, and his character has also been subtly changed by this world, becoming bold and direct.
Compared with his previous life, where he needed to protect himself with a hypocritical face in the steel jungle, Darrow prefers his straightforward appearance now.
When he walked out of the gate of the sword gym, Darrow noticed that Miss Suzuki was not at the front desk.
"This old fox."
Darrow recollected it, and it seems that Izumi Ji arranged everything today from the very beginning, and this Suzuki is not a receptionist at all, I am afraid that Izumi Ji specially arranged to wait for him after he got the news yesterday.
But yes, if that Miss Suzuki was just a receptionist, the apprentices wouldn't be so afraid of her, let alone lead Darrow to Izumi Ji's private house.
However, this also makes sense, why Darrow was directly assigned to Daomu after signing up, so the Mitsuhashi should have been arranged by Izumi, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence.
If he lost to Daomu and Sanqiao, he could only leave in despair. Fortunately, he defeated Sanqiao, otherwise he might not even see Izumiji.
And in the tea room, although Darrow didn't fight Izumi Ji directly, he never stopped fighting in secret.
Since he sat down, Izumi Ji had been testing him. While drinking tea, Darrow noticed that Izumi Ji's left hand had been adjusting the two knives at his waist, and at the same time, he had been catching his own flaws.
Fortunately, Darrow has the blessing of knowledge, always pay attention to his small movements and has been adjusting his posture, otherwise He Quanji might suddenly draw a knife while talking.
Then it is unlikely that they will directly violently hurt people, but if Izumi put the knife on Darrow's neck under the pretext of cutting mosquitoes, and give himself a blow, then the next negotiation will be impossible It will be so smooth.
He would never promise to restrain his apprentices as he did now. Fortunately, Darrow was alert and perfectly resolved these calculations.
The matter of the tavern should have come to an end here.
I have already explained the situation to Izumiji, and if there are people who make troubles and affect the business of my tavern in the future, it will be because of his ineffective discipline, and then don't blame Darrow for being rude.
As for the old fox Izumi Ji, anyway, Darrow also signed up for the horned qualifying competition, and he will meet him sooner or later in the qualifying competition, and then we will meet him again.
Now, not yet.
Not long after Darrow left, Izumi still stayed in the tea room drinking tea.
"Come in." After a while, Izumi Ji called Suzuki into the Japanese room, and then said slowly. "What do you think of his strength?"
"Terrible speed, terrible strength, but his kendo skills don't seem to be very good. He only used one move, Tang Zhu." After watching Darrow's two duels in the practice room, Suzuki responded in this way.
"Hmph, kendo, he doesn't know how to do kendo at all, that kid should be a master with a gun." He Quanji said with a cold snort.
"Gunner, that's impossible." Suzuki said in surprise when he heard that Darrow was actually a gunner.
Because in the pirate world, guns are generally used to deter the weak, and it is difficult to pose a threat to the real strong. Only those who have no pursuit will use guns to defend themselves.
"How is that impossible? The jaws of his hands and the index fingers are covered with calluses. He must be a gunman." Izumi said with certainty that he had been sizing up Darrow from the very beginning when he entered the back house, and never let him go. any detail.
"Go and call Michiki and Mihashi." Izumi Ji ended the topic, and after some consideration, he ordered to Suzuki.
"Yes!"
After a while, Daomu and Mihashi came to the Japanese room, and they looked like elementary school students who got into trouble at school.
After the reprimand, Izumi Ji immediately asked the two about the specific situation of this matter.
Daomu dared to hide it, and told all about yesterday's situation, especially the situation of being trapped yesterday, but he still believed that the [air prison] that trapped him all night yesterday was only arranged by Darrow Just a trap.
"Trap? Humph, stupid!" Izumi Ji is well-informed, of course he knows about devil fruits, and remembering that he tried many times today, but was resolved by Darrow one by one, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "It seems that this Raizbat is really Here comes number one."
"What shall we do after that? Shall we go to the Kanesada Sword Gym?" Hearing that even the owner of the kung fu was amazed by Darrow, Miyashi asked next to him.
"Go, why don't you go? The horn qualifying competition will start in a few days. Izumi Liqian has not made a shot for 5 consecutive years. If you don't participate this year, you will be revoked the qualification to be exempted from the pass. There is no qualification for apprenticeship."
"But wait for a couple of days, and don't get into conflict with that tavern owner for the time being." He Quanji said with some trepidation, remembering the several rounds of confrontation between himself and Darrow just now.
"Yes."
After Michimu and Mitsuhashi left, Izumi Ji's voice sounded again in the tightly shut tea room.
"Suzuki, where are you going?" Izumi asked Miss Suzuki who was hurrying out with a food box.
"Go and deliver food to Xiaoqian." Suzuki responded with a narrowed smile, and then asked hesitantly, "Can't you talk to Xiaoqian?"
"It's not that I don't talk to him, it's that his obsession is too deep and he doesn't communicate with me." He Quanji responded, then waved his hand and continued, "Forget it, let's not talk about this, go."
"Okay." After replying, Miss Suzuki took the food box and went out.
In the tea room, a middle-aged man was kneeling in front of the coffee table making tea.
I saw him place the tea bowl in front of the silk yarn, and then began to brew with rigorous and elegant movements.
Taking advantage of this gap, Darrow began to look at Izumi's performance in front of him.
