Chapter 70: Military Attack

In the dojo, the original order was to prepare first, then salute, and finally start the fight.

But Luffy and Kuina had already introduced themselves to each other and saluted each other before, so Shimotsuki Koshiro skipped this step and directly announced that they could begin.

Luffy was thinking about how to save this dying girl, because the way she died was very funny. She didn't die from illness or murder, but from falling down the stairs.

This way of dying is somewhat funny.

How high could the stairs be? The houses in Shimotsuki Village were wooden houses with Japanese structures. Luffy felt that if he fell from the roof and hit the ground with the back of his head, it would only be very painful.

It is not as high as the buildings of Elegia or the palace there.

Kuina noticed that Luffy was distracted. This guy didn't take her seriously.

Arrogant male!

She seized the flaw without hesitation, stepped forward with the knife in hand, pushed off the ground with her back foot, slid forward one step close to the ground with her front foot, and then quickly followed with a step with her back foot.

The center of gravity remained stable while sliding, and then Tang Zhu chopped down without deviation.

That is to say, a direct chop on the head.

So fast!

Even though he was thinking about things and was prepared for the enemy, Luffy was still surprised by Kuina's speed. It seemed like this girl suddenly appeared in front of him.

pat!

Luffy raised his bamboo sword to block horizontally, and as the two bamboo swords collided, Luffy's bamboo sword tilted at an angle.

After all, it was a hasty block and the punches used were not skilled.

Luffy failed to cope with the huge force transmitted to him.

This girl... is very strong, just slightly weaker than me.

Luffy made a comparison and found that Kuina's power was higher than his before [Hell Training], but weaker than his after [Hell Training].

It looks like 1.7 tons.

After all, it is the power of flesh and blood.

[What a strong power, this is a man younger than me. ]

Although Luffy failed to respond, Kuina did not rush forward and attack him further.

Because that attack by Tang Zhu was already full of strength.

After being blocked, her body was stiff so that she couldn't launch a quick combo, which would have only left her vulnerable and led to her defeat.

This is an extremely dangerous choice for Kuina who is pursuing victory.

Especially when the enemy is a wild boar with super brute force.

Kuina retreated slowly. This was originally a probing attack, fast and deadly. She had done many one-hit kills like this.

Those were levels that couldn't even be stopped by temptation.

The challenger Zoro who came to her door was directly knocked away by her Tang Zhu.

After a brief fight, the two men regained their strength. Kuina became more cautious and suppressed the disdain in her eyes.

This child's enormous strength alone made her have to be careful in dealing with him, even though she despised him in her heart as a wild boar with only strength.

But wild boars with thick skin and flesh can charge around recklessly and make countless mistakes. For ordinary people, if they make a mistake just once, they will be pierced through the body by the wild boar's tusks.

Luffy also looked at Kuina.

This is a true swordsman, an opponent worthy of a fight right now.

"Oh ho ho! Good job, little girl!"

The pirates cheered.

From the fight, it can be seen that Luffy is already at a disadvantage. They cheered enthusiastically for Kuina, but Kuina was not used to enthusiastic pirates.

[Shouldn't these guys... cheer for the other side? ]

The duels in the dojo were all silent, with only the sound of bamboo swords hitting each other and the groans of the loser being heard.

The arrival of the pirates livened up this deserted battlefield.

Shimotsuki Koshiro also let out a faint sigh of helplessness.

However, the younger children have been driven by the pirates' enthusiasm.

The owner of the gym also said that they were guests. These children forgot their fear of pirates and cheered along with Shanks' crew, "Go, Kuina!"

"well played!"

The villagers who were watching the fun also started cheering and raising their fists.

"Which side are you guys from?" Luffy said helplessly.

"Luffy, come on!"

A sound like the clear ringing of a silver bell rang out.

The singer's highly recognizable voice easily suppressed the cheers of others.

The boys paid attention to the girl behind them. They saw that the girl was only wearing a light yellow short skirt, revealing her white and tender arms and the long and clean jade pillar that supported her body.

Against the backdrop of the plain yellow skirt, their eyes subconsciously focused on the girl's exposed collarbones, shoulders and arms. Just by observing the girl's tender skin, the boys seemed to smell the fragrance emanating from the girl and turned their heads away shyly.

She was a girl of a completely different type from Kuina. Kuina was like the cold and noble moon.

The girl is the enthusiastic and lively candlelight, a superior young lady. Her every move exudes a wealthy demeanor, perfectly fitting the term "young lady".

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on her, the singer just let out a "hee" sound and made a meowing paw gesture.

The bustling outside scene made Kuina's mind wander for a moment. She once again wielded both bamboo swords, swinging them in the air from top to bottom, performing a Suzhen, and then her scattered heart was focused on the sword again.

It once again transformed into the moon high in the night sky.

There is only one goal——

Fight and win!

Kuina observed Luffy's movements through the path of the sword and was no longer in a hurry to attack.

"You are very strong, the second strongest girl I have ever seen."

Luffy placed the bamboo sword on his shoulder and praised the girl in front of him.

the second?

Kuina took note of this, then used her bamboo sword to strike out with a left diagonal cut.

Reverse robe!

The young man had already launched the attack without hesitation after praising her.

The powerful sound of footsteps echoed in the gym, like the sound of thunder.

Everyone once again held their breath and watched the two children fight.

Luffy raised the bamboo sword resting on his shoulder. He didn't know much about swordsmanship. Kuina's moves were similar to the swordsmanship demonstrated by Shanks with chopsticks. It was a joke, with changes of slashing left and right.

She swung forward, and in response to the "wild boar's" charge, Kuina struck her bamboo sword against the opponent's bamboo sword.

Before the huge force could be transmitted along the weapon, it was deflected by Kuina's bamboo sword. Then Kuina took the opportunity to slash at Luffy's shoulder.

This was a cutting force carried out with weapons. Although Luffy was surprised, he was not panicked. His bamboo sword almost stuck to Kuina's bamboo sword, and he danced along with the opponent's momentum, while his body also retreated gracefully.

The soft and erratic posture made Kuina feel uncomfortable, as if she had been hit by a gentle breeze. She saw the man floating backwards and then landing gently on the ground, and the two sides then distanced themselves from each other.

Then the boy pushed off the ground, transforming his original stillness into movement, quickly and nimbly, spinning his body in the air and slashing over.

Kuina opened her mouth slightly in surprise.

What a quick response!

The force and angle of the body are changed extremely quickly to launch continuous attacks.

Compared to this, the swordsmen I had fought against in the past were complete idiots.

Chapter 71 Broken Blade

"Hehe!"

Facing Luffy's spinning slash from mid-air, Kuina let out a soft cry.

Her sword power reached a new level, and she retreated while dealing with the continuous slashing attacks.

That is a technique called Kihei, which is a technique like sound hitting.

Its function is to make people more focused and enter a state of anaerobic exercise. It also has the meaning of intimidating the enemy and enhancing self-confidence. Even in Luffy's previous world, there was this kind of fighting technique that would make strange noises or beast roars.

It can be understood as a battle cry that adds buffs to yourself in the game, so reciting the name of a move in a decisive battle is also a more elegant battle cry, which is a very reasonable approach.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

The bamboo swords collided with each other repeatedly, but only briefly before separating for the second collision.

Within one second, the bamboo swords had collided more than thirty times in succession, and the overly powerful force made the bamboo swords of both sides overwhelmed.

But neither of them had any intention of showing mercy to the weapons.

All the techniques are designed to get closer to the opponent and then strike him, for a purer collision.

The bamboo sword hits quickly one after another, and Luffy's attacks are like a torrential rain, continuous and uninterrupted.

Kuina was exhausted from dealing with this. She had never encountered such an opponent before. While her brain was still thinking about what to do next, the boy's attack had already hit her head.

She could only parry, parry, parry, her mind was blank, and she just used the sword mechanically.

She forgot her combo.

Only then did Guina realize how unfamiliar she was with her sword. Her sword skills, which she had honed for thousands of years, were so awkward and obscure, as if she was just an apprentice who had just started to wield the sword.

I am Kuina Shimotsuki, the daughter of a swordsman!

Kuina bit her lip, feeling a strong sense of unwillingness in her heart.

The boy on the other side could always quickly dissipate the impact and prepare for the next attack, swiftly and powerfully. He had more combat experience than himself, and the opponent he faced was also very strong. Why was that...

A mere child can have too much combat experience...

Kuina was very puzzled. She had almost no rivals in the village, and no one dared to fight her, except for a green grass head who challenged her day after day.

But the boy was too weak and stubborn, so she always found his flaws and killed him in one move.

My endurance will be better than the other person's!

Kuina endured the pressure from her opponent, but she did not waver in her belief that she would win.

You need to look for flaws more calmly and then disrupt the opponent's offensive!

Everyone knew that Kuina was suppressed, and the apprentices of the gym, as well as the adults, were all staring at the battle in the arena in amazement.

They are obviously just kids, but the match was so exciting. Is Kuina going to end her winning streak?

The green-haired boy looked unwillingly at the boy who was Kuina's enemy.

Why, why is it that he is younger than me, yet he can fight with Kuina to this extent.

Just by putting it into his mind, he knew that he would be knocked out by Kuina in a very short time.

I can't accept it, even though I tried so hard!

He pressed his knees tightly with both hands.

Those eyes were watching the two people in the arena, their bamboo swords constantly colliding.

If it were me, what would I do...

"Luffy is going to win." Uta lay on Shanks' back and watched the game.

She watched the duel between the two men in amazement. Is this how swordsmen fight?
