Chapter 27: Chapter 27 Question: What Luffy Discovered
Killer: "... How did he do that..."
Capone Bege: "Although I don't understand swordsmanship, from what Zoro said, it seems like that Straw Hat kid over there has done an incredible things, huh?"
Scratchmen Apoo: "To achieve that level in just one day, isn't it extremely difficult?"
Cavendish: "Not just difficult, it's extremely difficult! No... it's super, super difficult!!"
X Drake: "Yeah, I've been practicing swordsmanship since I was young too. In my opinion, this is something that humans simply cannot achieve!!!"
Trafalgar Law: "Didn't Mihawk just say that? While swordsmanship requires training from a young age, those with innate talent are an exception! It's obvious that the Straw Hat captain belongs to the category of those with innate talent."
Dracule Mihawk: "... Although I wanted to express that, but... for him to complete the basic training in just one day, even in my opinion, it's an incredibly unbelievable thing!"
Shanks: "It seems like Luffy doesn't belong to the category of those with innate talent..."
Jewelry Bonney: "This isn't innate talent???!!"
Shanks: "This is at least three levels above innate talent!"
Jewelry Bonney: "..."
Monkey D. Luffy: "Am I that strong?"
Monkey D. Garp: "Idiot!! He is talking about the Red-border Luffy over there! You damn bastard, you completely wasted your talent!!"
Tsuru: "You can't solely blame Luffy. Garp, you also have an undeniable responsibility in Training Luffy."
Sengoku: "Garp has also failed. As a Marine Vice Admiral, he can't possibly be taking care of a child every day."
Although the Straw Hat Pirates' crew members are scattered in different places at the moment, they all watch the screen and collectively facepalm at Zoro's completely dumbfounded expression...
Encountering such a monster like Luffy, they can't help but feel sorry for the other side, poor Zoro
"Ah..." Zoro is dumbfounded!!
Is it possible that you are the kind of person his master mentioned, someone with innate talent in the way of the sword...?
Zoro ponders for a moment
"Hey, what kind of training should I do next?"
At this moment, Luffy's voice brings Zoro back from his wandering thoughts
...
Zoro thinks for a moment before speaking: "Next, it's time for strength training... um, wait, it seems like you don't need that..."
"Striking training and strength training are the two foundations of swordsmanship. You've passed both of them, so next is to comprehend the way of the sword!"
"How do I comprehend it?"
"First, you need to choose a suitable sword for yourself."
"This one seems suitable, I'll use it."
"Then, you need to determine which path of swordsmanship you want to follow. Like me, I follow the three-sword style"
"my own sword style?"
Luffy falls into contemplation.
After a moment, he raises the sword in his hand: "I'll start with one sword for now."
Upon seeing Luffy choose the One-Sword Style, Zoro continued, "To comprehend the way of the sword, one must first engage in battles with a sword. Only by constantly adapting to the sword in one's hand during combat can one find their own path of swordsmanship."
"Furthermore, after each battle, you need to meditate once to identify and rectify any flaws in your swordsmanship, thus continuously improving it."
After listening to Zoro's guidance, Luffy nodded and said, "Understood! There's no time to waste, let's train separately!"
Without wasting a single second, Luffy dashed towards the other side of the forest.
His training in sword strikes and strength had already met the standards, and now all that was left was to comprehend the way of the sword in battle.
Typically, swordsmen like Zoro, who came from formal dojos, would start by sparring with their fellow disciples.
However, for Luffy, he didn't need the earlier stages because his strength was already sufficient.
As per usual, Luffy provoked hundreds of wild beasts in the forest, then switched to a wooden sword and began his journey of subduing the beasts...
One week later...
The two stood in front of a restaurant, and Luffy looked at Zoro and said, "Didn't you say you had enough money to eat for a month?"
Upon hearing this, Zoro became annoyed, "You didn't say you could eat so much in the beginning either!"
All the money he had saved as a bounty hunter had been eaten up by Luffy...
Fortunately, money is inanimate, and with their abilities, they definitely wouldn't starve...
Only the wild beasts in the forest suffered...
The two continued their training in the mountains, randomly selecting a "training partner" to roast and eat when hungry, and picking wild fruits when thirsty.
On this day, it was Luffy's turn to gather fruits...
He saw coconut trees by the seaside, so he grabbed the edge of the mountain wall with both hands and shot out.
Landing on the beach, Luffy picked a few coconuts.
Just as he was about to leave, a wave suddenly crashed onto the shore.
Huh?
Luffy's gaze slightly froze!
He turned his head to look at the beach...
Ding!
