Strongest Swordsman In One Piece

Chapter 16

Isshin Dojo.

This is a Dojo located in the village of Shimotsuki Village in the East Blue.

There are countless Dojo like this in the East Blue.

The Dojo in some franchise countries are even more luxurious and famous than the Dojo in this small village.

Compared with those Dojo located in some big countries or big cities, Isshin are like small Dojo.

But what few people know is that the owner of this Dojo is actually a very low-key Master swordsman.

In his hands, there is not only the highest swordsmanship mentioned but also a Great Grade Swords (O Wazamono) and Skillful Grade Swords (Ryo Wazamono) that countless swordsmen yearn for.

Even more than one!

Because of this pavilion owner, their family is the Shimotsuki family from Wano Country.

His father, are also a swordsman in the country of Wano, created enma and shusui which are listed in the 21 Great Grade Swords.

In other words, this low-key master swordsman is actually the son of a legendary swordsman, and he most likely inherited the forging skills that the family has inherited for hundreds of years.

On this day, a small cabin sailboat arrived at the island where the Shimotsuki Village is located.

After landing, El took Carina and Nami and headed straight in the direction of Isshin Dojo.

It didn't take long for a Dojo with "Isshin" written on the door plaque to appear in front of the trio.

"...really extraordinary."

Before approaching the gate, El whispered as if he sensed something.

In his perception, there are powerful life fluctuations in the Dojo.

That was the strongest aura fluctuation he had ever seen, and even the huge sea beasts in the sea were far from being able to compare with it.

Those so-called big pirates in the East Blue are even more like the light of fireflies in front of it.

Even being born extraordinary his fluctuation of life at this stage is also far inferior to the owner of that breath.

"... such a young and powerful breath!"

At the same time, Koushirou in the Dojo opened his squinting eyes, as if looking at El through the building.

'Has it been found? he have Observation Haki!'

Although Koushirou's strength completely abused El, his level of Haki was far inferior to El.

Koushirou's actions and thoughts were visible in front of El Observation Haki.

After confirming his speculation, El was even more determined to ask the other party about the Armament Haki.

Arriving at the gate of the Dojo, El pushed the door directly in.

Outside the door and inside, it seems like two completely different worlds.

As soon as the heavy door was pushed open, a thunderous shout, and the sound of colliding with the bamboo knives, suddenly entered the ears of the trio.

"Young man, are you here to learn swordsmanship?"

Before the trio can take a look in the Dojo, a middle-aged man in a white yukata came over immediately and asked with a kind smile.

"No, uncle, I'm here to Challenge the Dojo."

El grinned and said bluntly: "Where is your Dojo Master, let him come out and accept my challenge!"

"..."

El's voice is not too loud.

But after his words fell, the entire Dojo fell into silence.

The children and teenagers who were waving their bamboo sword stopped their movements one after another, and looked at the three with strange expressions.

Those strange, but without the slightest ridicule eyes made Carina and Nami look confused.

"Kuina, someone is here to kick the Dojo again!"

At this moment, a child suddenly ran to the entrance of a corridor and shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Carina and Nami were slightly stunned.

It turned out that it wasn't just them, there were people who came to play here before.

"Young man, wait a moment, someone will come out to accept your challenge right away."

Facing El, the Dojo Challenger, the middle-aged man not only didn't give him a nasty look but smiled gently.

There was even a hint of nostalgia on his face.

It was as if he saw someone's reflection on El's body.

Obviously, he didn't take El's words seriously.

In other words, he is full of confidence in the strength of his Dojo.

Indeed, if El was a member of this Dojo, he would be confident too.

There is a Master swordsman in charge, and there are not many Dojo in the whole world that can be compared with Isshin Dojo.

"Where is the guy who kicked the Dojo? I'll be his opponent!"

After a while, a short figure rushed out of the corridor, after a sudden brake he stood in the center of the Dojo and instantly becoming the focus of attention of the crowd.

It was a little boy with short green hair, sweating profusely all over his body, and he only took a shower once a day in morning, so he exuded a stench of sweat.

Judging from the way he was out of breath, this little boy should have been training just now, and it was also physical training.

This little boy is the future second-in-command of the Straw Hat Pirates, a member of the Evil Generation, known as the "Pirate Hunter" - Roronoa Zoro.

Zoro, who was a few months older than El, was already No. 2 among all the students of Isshin Dojo, second only to the Kuina.

He will be nine years old in a few months, but he can already compete with the middle-aged teachers of the Dojo. they believe that in a short time, he will become the second genius swordsman to defeat adults after Kuina.

"Is that you who want to Challenge the Dojo? I'll be your opponent!"

Looking around Zoro eyes quickly locked on El, who had a sword hanging around his waist, and said with a warlike expression on his face.

"Hello... Zoro, it's the chief's business to deal with those who Challenge the Dojo."

At this time, an older teenager behind Zoro complained: "If you do this, aren't you afraid that Big Sister Kuina will beat you on the head?"

"That's right, Zoro, back off!"

The echoing voice came from the corridor.

A figure with a height similar to El came out of the corridor.

Behind her, a tall figure followed.

The person who reprimanded Zoro was the one who walked in front, with short blue hair, an aura of a young heroic girl.

She is the descendant of the Dragon Slayer Warrior, the daughter of Koushirou, and the eldest sister of the Isshin Dojokuina Shimotsuki.

"Kuina, I came first, his opponent is me!"

Seeing Kuina snatching away his opponent, Zoro said with a dissatisfied expression.

"When you beat me and take the chief position from me, tell me this again."

Kuina glanced at Zoro lightly, and then looked directly at El, who had an extraordinary temperament in front of him, and said seriously: "I already know your purpose, if you want to challenge the master of Isshin Dojo, you must defeat me."

'Interesting... not Disgusting people and three at a time. '
