Under One Person, the system says I'm the Pirate King.

The increased hatred value made Qin Lang even more puzzled.

I think there was nothing wrong with my performance.

This older cousin didn't even answer his own question; he went straight to questioning himself.

Is this still the gentle yet powerful older cousin I know?

Could it be that I've encountered a fake Lu Lin?

But if it's a fake Lu Lin, will the system recognize him as Zoro?

Although in terms of ability alone, Lu Lin and Zoro are completely unrelated.

But thinking about it carefully, among all the swordsmen in Under One Person, Qin Lang could only think of the Flowing Cloud Sword and Fu Rong's sect, and at most, the Tai Chi Sword of Wudang Mountain.

Therefore, the system's misidentification of Lu Lin as Zoro was definitely not due to any ability.

In terms of personality and abilities, Lu Lin does share some similarities with Zoro.

Highly talented, capable, ruthless and taciturn, and occasionally a little cute.

Thinking about it this way, the person in front of me can't possibly be a fake Lu Lin.

As Qin Lang was pondering this, the other person spoke again:

"You just said you've figured out a sword technique, where's your sword?"

"I just don't have a sword, so I came here to find one."

"Looking for it here?"

Qin Lang's remarks struck Lu Lin as even more absurd.

How could someone who can figure out sword techniques on his own not even have a sword and have to find one on the spot?

In this day and age, are lies told so openly?

Why would the old man take in such a swindler?

How did the clever Linglong fall for it?

A series of questions lingered in Lu Lin's mind.

He was away on business recently, so he was unaware of the Lu family's affairs, let alone the fact that Qin Lang and Liu Yanyan had come to seek refuge with the Lu family.

I just got back today and wanted to visit my grandfather, Lu Jin, first, but he was out of town.

He then thought he should come to the training room to practice for a while.

Not long after training began, Qin Lang barged in.

He wasn't against his students coming to the training room.

On the contrary, he enjoys practicing with everyone.

Qin Lang's words led him to misunderstand that Qin Lang had asked Lu Linglong to bring him here.

Therefore, he thought that Qin Lang had some designs on the Lu family.

In addition, Qin Lang's initial impression of him from trying to get close to him led him to believe that this person was a conman.

So, in order to "expose" Qin Lang, he took the initiative to ask:

"Since you want to try swordsmanship, can I spar with you for a while? I'm getting a bit bored by myself anyway."

He guessed that Qin Lang would not agree, and that this would give him an opportunity to find his weakness.

Unexpectedly, Qin Lang's eyes lit up upon hearing this:

"Really? That's great! Wait for me to find a sword!!"

Although the Lu Lin in front of me is slightly different from the personality I know.

But Qin Lang didn't care about these details; he was overjoyed that Lu Lin was willing to be his sparring partner.

The biggest problem with misjudging my physical exertion in the past few days was that I was working in isolation.

Having no opponents to practice against made him think he was awesome.

But when you actually fight a decent opponent, you'll find that people aren't wooden stakes, and the amount of physical exertion required is completely different.

Having just completed the science popularization task for Lu Linglong and reached the required favorability with Liu Yanyan, I have gained 150 combat power points.

He raised his combat power to 410 points.

Although I can feel the changes in my body.

However, without engaging in combat, it's impossible to accurately determine the extent to which an increase in combat power will affect one's Devil Fruit abilities.

Moreover, the opponent cannot be too weak.

At the very least, it must be able to withstand the pressure of its own gravity.

Lu Lin, who happens to be standing right in front of them, is the only successor of the Reverse Life Triple Technique.

In the original work of Under One Person, he was undefeated in battles against Chai Yan, the Nascent Soul inside Zhang Chulan, Gao Nan of the Tang Sect, and the malignant disease of Nathan Island.

He can be considered Kakashi from Under One Person.

It's naturally a great honor to have such a skilled player as my sparring partner.

But this one move completely stumped Lu Lin.

And I finally started to doubt whether I was wrong.

I was just about to ask the other party about their specific situation.

Then he saw Qin Lang pick out a thin, sheathed, short-bladed Tang sword and stand not far in front of him:

"This is it, Young Master Lu Lin, come on!"

Although some people use this short-bladed weapon now, it is mostly used for assassination or as a dagger.

Who practices swordsmanship with a dagger?

He was certain that Qin Lang was an amateur who knew nothing.

They thought Qin Lang was deliberately putting on an act, since even their own grandfather could be fooled, which meant the other party was probably not just a simple con artist.

Therefore, he didn't speak yet, wanting to test the other party's skills first.

So he took a knife from the weapon rack next to him and held it in his hand.

Although he had reached the second level of his Reverse Life Triad, which would make him indestructible, he felt that he wouldn't need to use Reverse Life to deal with the tricks of the swindler in front of him.

My swordsmanship skills should be enough.

"Young Master Lu Lin, this is my first time using this sword technique, and I might accidentally injure you. Please be careful later!"

Hearing Qin Lang say it was his first time using swordsmanship made Lu Lin even more disdainful.

What kind of impressive swordsmanship could a novice who doesn't even have a sword come up with, let alone the idea of ​​hurting himself? That would be utterly laughable.

Even so, Lu Lin will not let her guard down when it comes to battle.

He carefully gripped the knife he had just chosen, assuming a fighting stance, ready to engage in combat.

"Don't worry, I won't get hurt, you can do it!"

"Then I won't be polite?"

Qin Lang thought about it and realized he wasn't afraid, since Lu Lin had already reached the second level of Reverse Regeneration, and could recover quickly even if she was injured.

So, in order to seize this hard-won opportunity to practice with his partner.

Without further ado, he directly changed his Devil Fruit power to the Gravity Fruit.

Immediately afterwards, he quickly applied gravity to the short sword, and using the action of drawing the sword, he used the short sword to exert gravity suppression on Lu Lin.

Originally, Lu Lin saw that Qin Lang was still some distance away from her.

They never expected that they could be attacked from such a distance.

Although he had gotten into position, a moment of carelessness caused him to fall to his knees with a thud.

Before he could react, Qin Lang had already drawn his short sword, leaped up, and slashed at him.

Lu Lin dared not be careless any longer and tried to block with his sword, but he was suppressed. Helpless, he quickly activated the second level of Reverse Life.

Qin Lang's attack this time involved applying gravity to the blade while combining it with basic swordsmanship, creating his unique gravity swordsmanship.

Clang! Crash!

The instant Qin Lang chopped down.

The curved knife in Lu Lin's hand, which was dressed entirely in white, instantly broke in two and fell to the ground.

He could only block Qin Lang's attack with his own body, and the floor even cracked slightly from the force he exerted.

Qin Lan's two attacks were not blind assaults.

At first, he used gravity suppression on Lu Lin with his drawn sword, the same force he applied when fighting Feng Shayan in the World Society.

When he used the gravity sword technique, the force was similar to the force he used to control Jia Zhengyu's dragon-pecking cone with gravity.

This is done to compare the differences between the two.

The power was almost the same, but this time the physical exertion was significantly less.

However, since the combat power itself has increased by more than 1.5 times compared to before, it is only natural that the consumption has been reduced.

Therefore, Qin Lang had no way of directly determining whether using swordsmanship was more advantageous than before.

Therefore, he sought an accurate comparison.

The moment he landed, he quickly sheathed the sword.

At the same time, using the same force he used against Feng Shayan, he released gravity suppression with his bare hands.

He discovered that the physical exertion required to apply gravity suppression with bare hands is about 1.5 times that required to do so with weapons.

As expected, my guess was correct.

Having understood this, today's test can be considered a great success.

It seems I'll need to study swordsmanship more to complement the Gravity Fruit.

Just then, the sound of the door opening came from the front door again:

"Huh? Cousin? What are you doing here?"
