Section 26
"Eh?"
Zoro was startled.
"This is the first time I've seen my father and Ron fight seriously. I heard that it was Ron who brought it up."
Kuina looked at the black-haired boy in the arena and said seriously, "Maybe we can see his true strength this time."
"Eh? Didn't he use his true strength when he fought you before?"
Zoro couldn't help asking.
"Idiot, although he was serious when he fought me, he definitely didn't use all his strength."
Kuina said hatefully.
"Before today's duel, I'm afraid even my father didn't know how much this guy's true strength was."
Zoro couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he heard it.
He had a new concept of Ron's strength again.
Then he opened his eyes wide and stared at the arena, afraid of missing a moment.
18. Real sword duel with Koshiro (3/5)
In the arena
Holding a real sword, Koshiro looked at the black-haired boy opposite him and said with a smile: "Ron, can we start?"
Ron did not speak, but his eyes suddenly opened.
With a step, the whole person disappeared instantly!
"Disappeared, disappeared?!"
Zoro was shocked.
"No, it's too fast!"
Kuina looked solemn and focused on the field.
Ron appeared in front of Koshiro while rushing forward.
His black hair fluttered, his eyes were fixed on Koshiro, and his face was only focused.
Swish!
Raikiri was unsheathed, drew a stunning arc, and slashed towards Koshiro.
Zizizi!
Flames lingered on the blade, and lightning flashed.
The sword in Koshiro's hand was also pulled out instantly to block the slash.
Clang!
A strong wind spread out from the collision point of the two swords to the surroundings.
Kuina and Zoro both felt their hearts tighten.
After Ron's attack was blocked, he held the long sword Raikiri, which was almost as tall as he was now, and launched a violent attack on Koshiro.
The flames and lightning on the blade became more and more intense.
Koshiro held the sword in one hand and the scabbard in the other, and his defense was impeccable.
"It's just like a waterfall hitting a rock..."
Kuina murmured.
Zoro was completely dumbfounded, staring blankly at the duel between the two.
There were flames and lightning on Ron's sword? !
Ron flipped in the air, and the long sword in his hand slashed at Koshiro below.
The power of this slash was extremely heavy. Even if Koshiro blocked it with the sword, the whole person was pressed back by the huge force for a distance.
As soon as Ron landed, he kicked his feet and rushed towards Koshiro at a very fast speed:
"Flame Dance!"
The long sword in his hand was like a flaming blade, burning fiercely.
Wherever the blade passed, the flames rolled and flowed, like a red ribbon, wrapping around Ron and rushing towards Koshiro.
"Is this... a slashing sword technique?"
Koshiro's eyes were filled with amazement, and then his eyes focused, and a layer of blue energy appeared on the blade in his hand.
"Isshin Slash, Flowing Water!"
He swung the sword and slashed.
The flames and flowing water collided fiercely.
The fierce gust of wind spread in all directions, and the trees were shaking and swaying.
Kuina and Zoro even raised their arms to block their faces.
After the strong wind.
The two hurriedly looked into the field.
Ron half-knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, and the long sword Raikiri was inserted not far away.
The long sword in Koshiro's hand broke in the middle, leaving only half of the blade.
Kuina and Zoro stared with wide eyes and mouths, and their chins were about to fall to the ground.
"Ron... cut off my father's (the director's) sword?!!"
"What a beautiful slash."
Koshiro looked at Ron and said with relief.
"In terms of kendo, I'm afraid I really don't have much to teach you."
Ron, who had restored his strength in a few moments by practicing the Sun Breathing, felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.
"It's mainly because you, the director, held back, and my sword..."
Koshiro shook his head and said, "No, the main reason why my sword broke is not because your sword is better, but because you cut it in the same place every time."
He looked at Ron, stroked his beard and smiled, "I don't think this is a coincidence."
Ron turned his face away embarrassedly.
Koshiro looked at the extremely young black-haired boy in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "He has only learned swordsmanship for five months, and he can force himself to use a slash at the level of power... He is really a little monster."
"How long will it take him to reach the level of a swordsman? Does he have a chance to reach the level of a great swordsman?"
Koshiro couldn't help but think.
After Ron picked up Raikiri and sheathed it, Koshiro said, "Ron, do you want to see the swordsman's slash?"
Ron was stunned at first, then overjoyed: "Can I?"
Koshiro nodded.
"Follow me."
The two walked into the forest one after the other.
Kuina and Zoro just came back to their senses from the shock.
"This is Ron's true strength..."
Kuina looked down at her palms, her hands were shaking.
"So amazing..."
Zoro was shaking all over, "Swordsman, can you reach such a powerful level?"
"Kuina, the director and Ron...shouldn't they be the most powerful swordsmen in the world?"
"Of course."
Kuina clenched her fists, "This is not the pinnacle of a swordsman, the pinnacle of a swordsman is even higher! Higher than the sky!"
"Higher than the sky, that's the pinnacle of a swordsman..."
Zoro seemed to have sensed something at this moment.
He looked at Kuina, his eyes were extremely firm and he said:
"Kuina, I will definitely surpass you! Surpass Ron! Surpass the director! Surpass everyone and reach that pinnacle!!"
"No, it will be me who will reach that pinnacle!"
Kuina's eyes were also full of determination.
The two looked at each other.
Kuina looked at Zoro, who was serious and determined, and smiled suddenly, then raised her fist in his puzzled eyes:
