One Piece: King of the World from White Town

"You must expand your sword intent infinitely, and use the true 'intention' contained within as the foundation of your domain. Only in this way can you eliminate the false and retain the true."

"But your biggest problem now is that your sword intent is too empty. It only has the form but not the spirit. This kind of sword intent can be used for attacking, but it is almost impossible to use it to condense a domain."

Listening to Koshiro's instructions, Abel also discovered his own problems.

Sword intent Sword intent is to combine and fuse one's own 'intention' with the sword.

However, he took a shortcut from the beginning and used his mental power to forcibly condense sword intent.

To put it bluntly, they are just empty shells without souls.

Abel finally understood why his [Infinite Sword Slash] always felt like it wasn't powerful enough.

Only when he integrates his true "intention" into it, can he maximize the power of this move, and even use it as a prototype to transform into the real realm of kendo.

So what is his "intention"?

Or in other words, what is his obsession?

Koshiro's obsession is to protect, to protect everyone around him and to protect the things he cherishes.

Therefore, Koshiro's kendo field also revolves around the word "protection".

Abel had no doubt that when someone threatened Kuina's life, that would be Koshiro's most powerful moment.

At that moment, there will be nothing that the [Wado Ichimonji] in Koshiro's hand cannot cut through!

Abel was not aware of the obsession of 'Hawkeye' Mihawk.

But judging from the fact that he wanders around, seeks out swordsmen to compete with, and even trains his own opponents, it is very likely that he is... lonely.

Victory or defeat is not important, he just wants an opponent with whom he can have a hearty fight.

In the past, Shanks could satisfy this requirement, so they were not only opponents who sparred with each other in swordsmanship, but also friends who could sit down and drink wine together.

But when Shanks lost an arm, Mihawk lost his last opponent.

Being invincible is also a kind of loneliness, and even more a kind of regret.

This is especially true for someone like Mihawk who has been loyal to the sword all his life.

Therefore, what Abel felt in Mihawk's kendo field was a fierce momentum of moving forward and being invincible.

"So what is my obsession?"

"Go home? Back to Earth?"

"Haha, there's nothing to be nostalgic about that kind of life before."

"Is that to seek justice for my family and hometown in this life?"

“There are some, but they are definitely not the biggest obsession.”

"So what is it?"

Abel stood there with a rare blank expression on his face.

The silver sword intent in the sky also began to flicker continuously, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, following the fluctuations in his heart.

When Koshiro saw this, he knew that the other party had fallen into the "demon of the heart".

If you can see through your true heart, you can take a step further on the path of kendo.

If not, it will be difficult to take this step in the future.

“If you really can’t think of it, why not go back to your own origin and see what has driven you to where you are today.”

"What is the origin of my heart? What has brought me to where I am today?"

Abel was stunned for a moment, and then fell into memories.

That day, he and Luo crawled back to the world from the hell where corpses were everywhere.

Then stood on the border and looked out at the fires burning in the white towns.

At that time he had a conversation with Luo.

"Ro, what are you thinking about?"

"I want to survive and turn this hopeless world upside down."

"What a scary guy, but sounds interesting."

……

"Luo, Perkin-Leydig disease... is it really incurable?"

"I don't know either. Even my father is helpless against this disease. Most likely, I can only wait to die."

"Can I just wait to die? Ha, I don't believe it. Since I can come out of that 'hell' alive, my fate can only be controlled by myself! Not only do I want to survive, but I also want to live longer and more excitingly than anyone else!"

……

"Yes, my original obsession was just to survive, to live more excitingly than anyone else! And to turn this hopeless world upside down!"

"It was this obsession that made me join the Don Quixote Family, and work my way up step by step, becoming a formal member, a family cadre, the highest cadre... I even ousted Doflamingo, became the head of the family, and created my own power."

"So up to this moment, has my obsession changed?"

"No, nothing has changed! I just want to live the most wonderful life! I want to change this world! I want to become the...king of this world!"

"This is my obsession, and also my 'will'!"

When the confusion in Abel's eyes completely disappeared, revealing a clear light, the silver sword intent in the sky suddenly began to vibrate violently.

Click, click...pop!

The silver-white shell suddenly shattered, revealing the golden light inside that symbolized the emperor's color.

[Infinite Sword Slash], which was originally at level 7, was upgraded by two levels to level 9!

After slaying his inner demons and returning to square one, Abel has completed his sword intent and taken a solid step on the path of swordsmanship!

Chapter 785: Those with squinting eyes are all monsters

Looking at the rapidly changing sword intent around him and the exponentially increasing sense of oppression, Koshiro could hardly hide his shock!

Although he did take out his most valuable knowledge because he wanted to make a good relationship.

But I didn't expect the other party's comprehension to be so high.

Not only did he kill his inner demon cleanly and neatly, but he also found his true heart and successfully integrated his obsession into the originally empty sword intent.

As a result, this forcibly constructed pseudo-domain has also been greatly improved.

Koshiro thought that with the other party's talent, it might not take long for him to comprehend the true realm of kendo.

"What a terrifying life!"

When he thought about how he had gotten to this point, how many years of practice he had gone through, and how many hardships he had gone through, Koshiro couldn't help but feel emotional.

There are indeed geniuses in this world, and they are the kind of geniuses that make people not feel jealous.

In comparison, he might be more suitable to inherit his father's business and become a knife maker.

Well, if he hadn't insisted on taking another path, his relationship with his father wouldn't have become so strained.

So much so that when Zoro was still very young, his father left here and never came back.

Feeling the new golden sword intent, Abel felt very satisfied.

Not only did his sword intent change completely, he also had some ideas on how to expand the sword intent into the field of kendo.

He believed that this seed would one day take root and sprout, raising his kendo skills to a higher level.

After letting out a long sigh, Abel simply retracted his sword intent and said to Koshiro, "Thank you for your guidance, Master Koshiro. Over the years, I have only pursued faster and stronger swordsmanship, but I have neglected something more important."

"But now that I have completed my sword spirit in time, I have also gained a deeper understanding of the sword art. I will remember your kindness in teaching and clearing up my doubts this time."

People at Abel's level would not make promises easily, and would be even less willing to owe favors to others.

For details, please refer to Kaido and BIG MOM.

The devil fruit that Kaido ate was given by BIG MOM, so that as Kaido becomes stronger and more powerful, the favor becomes more and more "valuable", which is priceless!

Kaido already has the strength and confidence to deny his mistake, but he still didn't do it.

Because once he did that, his reputation would be completely ruined.

No one will be willing to follow him sincerely anymore.

After all, what good end can a white-eyed wolf who doesn't even acknowledge a favor have? He will even be despised by others!

But this time, Abel did benefit a lot from the competition with Koshiro.

In addition, there is no conflict of interest between the two parties, so there is naturally no need to consider too much.

The only unreliable thing is that Koshiro is very likely involved with the revolutionary army.

But will he be afraid of the World Government?

Obviously not.

Koshiro shook his head modestly, "With your talent and hard work, I believe you will find the problem sooner or later even without my advice."

"If you can become stronger sooner, why wait? Maybe you are right, but if you discover it a month later, you waste a month. If you discover it a year later, you waste a year."

"I still have a lot of things to do, so I have to become stronger, stronger than I am now."

Abel's expression was extremely firm, and there was no trace of arrogance or impetuousness in him.

Because he knows how many powerful enemies there are in this world.

In addition, his attention was not always focused on the pirate world.

Even consciousness had come to many other worlds, he knew.

This also broadened his horizons and mind immensely.

Even if you reach the top in the world of pirates, it doesn't mean you will be invincible in other worlds.

So when you fight, you have to be crazy, so crazy that the enemy will be scared!

Instead of being crazy before the fight and then pinning someone to the ground, that is pure stupidity!

Koshiro looked at the young man in front of him and once again lamented that he was getting old, and at the same time felt a little envious.

If he had a son who was like the other person, then he would have no regrets and the dojo could be passed on to him as an inheritance.

pity……

But he quickly threw the idea out of his head.

Because his daughter also made him proud, he even thought about letting his daughter inherit the gym.

It was not for anything else, but it was the young man in front of him that helped him to untie the knot in his heart and make changes.

Talent comes regardless of background.

Women are not necessarily inferior to men.

A child can see this truth, but as an adult he is far from being able to do so. He should be ashamed of himself.

"Go back. You've been out for so long and made such a big noise. The children must be worried."

"Oh, and your injury..."

Abel simply waved his hand, "It's nothing serious, just a flesh wound."

He didn't take it seriously at all, and it's almost healed now.

As your physique becomes stronger, your self-healing ability will also increase.

After hearing what he said, Koshiro stopped insisting.

He thought he had controlled the strength of his attack quite accurately.

After all, it is not easy to achieve the level of "as if injured".

The sound of their footsteps gradually faded away.

Zoro and Kuina, who were hiding behind a big rock, finally put down their hands that were covering their mouths and breathed a sigh of relief.

"The teacher has gone back. Hurry! We have to go back too. Otherwise, if the teacher finds out that we didn't stay at the gym and sneaked out, we will be in big trouble."
