Chapter 495 The Dream Begins
The words fell.
The navy on the warship also responded immediately, pointing the ship's guns at the Merry not far away and firing directly.
But Luffy at the bow raised his lips and said with a smile, "Next, let me block it.
rubber……"
He stretched out his arms and placed them on the bow and stern like rubber, and acted as a shield himself and was hit directly by the shells.
But at the same time of hitting.
His body also began to stretch backwards at a rapid speed, absorbing all the force. At the same time, he released his left hand on the bow and adjusted his position to bounce the cannonball directly out.
It's just this shell.
Instead, it hit the restaurant on the sea not far away, which caused an immediate roar and a cloud of smoke rising in the distance.
When Ajuromaru in the sword saw this, he knew the exact time. "A restaurant on the sea? It seems that we have only been out to sea for a short time..."
at the same time.
Zoro was holding the Sword of Promised Victory, staring at the sword as if he was thinking about something, but the next moment he felt a darkness in front of his eyes.
The consciousness fell into an illusion.
In this fantasy world.
His memory was wiped out, and he returned to his childhood, experiencing Kuina's death once again, and standing in that room.
Looking at the girl lying on the bed with her face covered by a white cloth, Zoro's eyes were blurred by tears and he cried out in pain from the bottom of his heart.
"Didn't you make an appointment with me yesterday? You are not allowed to run away, Kuina..."
But no matter how he cried.
The girl on the bed no longer responded, there was only dead silence. Until the girl was buried, Zoro resolutely chose to find his master.
She knelt down in front of him, tears streaming down her face, but she pleaded firmly, "Teacher, please give me Kuina's knife...
I will become powerful along with her, let my name resound throughout the heavens, and become the world's greatest swordsman!"
But at this moment, the master, Shimotsuki Koshiro, turned around, stared at the young man in front of him through his round-framed glasses, and questioned him.
"Can you really do this?! With your talent, you're not even as talented as Kuina, do you really think you can do it?!"
face questioning.
Zoro was stunned. This was the first time he saw a master like this.
But that's about it.
Shimotsuki Koshiro turned around and took out a sharp blade, handed it to Zoro, and bewitched him with words, "Take this blade!
This is the legendary blade that possesses the power of God. As long as you hold it, you can easily become the world's greatest swordsman, and Kuina will be happy for you!"
And Zoro looked at the sharp blade handed to him. In his opinion, his master would not lie, which meant that the opportunity to become the world's greatest swordsman was in front of him.
But at this moment, in his eyes that were blurred by tears, he seemed to see Kuina handing him the blade.
And he said with a smile.
"Take this sharp blade, carry my dream, and become the world's greatest swordsman, Zoro..."
At this moment.
Zoro was stunned. Looking at the illusory figure in front of him, he choked up and said, "Kuina... is that you? I..."
But while mumbling, he suddenly noticed something strange, "No... If it was Kuina, it would never be like this. If she relied on the sword to become the world's greatest swordsman...
What about our once important vows and promises? You once said that men are stronger than women, but if I pick up this knife, what does that mean? ! "
"If you are not Kuina, I will not pick up this blade..." As he shouted, Kuina in front of him disappeared.
But Zoro still shouted angrily and firmly, "I will rely on my own efforts to realize our dream and become the world's greatest swordsman!"
That firm determination has taken root in his heart and has never wavered from beginning to end, as if he had picked up the blade.
It's an insult to their dreams!
And the moment he finished speaking, everything in front of him cracked and shattered like a mirror in the blink of an eye.
Everything in front of me.
They had all disappeared, and he appeared at the boundary of the sky and the sea after a brief moment of confusion.
Only then did he come to his senses.
A pleasant voice also rang in his ears, "Faced with the power at your fingertips, will you still firmly carry out your beliefs?
I like you very much."
Zoro came to his senses and looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a girl with a beautiful face, like an elf, looking straight at him with eyes as beautiful as gems.
In this regard.
Zoro just frowned and asked without wavering, "Did you do all that just now? Who are you, and where is this place?!"
In response to the question, Ajuramaru responded calmly and explained, "I am the god that resides in the blade in your hand. What I did just now was just a test for you."
"test?"
Hearing this, Zoro was still a little confused.
But Ajuramaru patiently explained to him, "That is to test whether you are qualified to be my sword master.
And now you have passed my test...so as long as your heart remains firm from now on, I will obey you.
Lend you strength!
But if your heart wavers and you lose faith, I will take your body away without hesitation. My name is Ajuramaru, do you have any questions?"
Hear these responses.
For a moment, Zoro found it a little hard to accept. He didn't expect that the blade that he had pulled out from the stone in the plain outside the village when he was a child would have such an origin.
It even feels a little unreal.
And he also had doubts in his heart, and even thought that all this was fake, or that it was caused by some special fruit ability...
But Ajuramaru did not explain this, but directly sent him out of this space.
When Zoro opened his eyes again.
He saw himself still leaning against the cabin, still holding the sword of promised victory. Everything that had just happened seemed like just a dream.
After looking around with his peripheral vision, he stared at the blade in front of him again and murmured the name tentatively.
"Ajuramaru?"
[Those who think they can’t empathize can use Kirito as an example, after all, his dual blades are also quite similar to swords]
