Hearing Hawkeye's question, Ian stared at him for a while, but didn't answer.
"Is it convenient to say?" Mihawk immediately understood what he meant, so he turned around, fluttering his clothes, and was about to leave.
He is not the kind of person who pushes others. Maybe Ian has concerns, so he doesn't want to continue asking.
However, at this moment, Ian suddenly stopped him.
"It doesn't matter if I tell you, my sword master is Master Koshiro!" Ian said with a smile.
He didn't want to say it before because he didn't want to disturb Koshiro's secluded life, but when Hawkeye was about to leave, Ian suddenly realized that Mihawk seemed to be the kind of person who did his own thing, even if he told him, he would It will not be advertised everywhere.
And counting, Mihawk seems to be about the same age as Mr. Koshiro, both in their 40s. They are from the same era, so maybe Mihawk has heard of Mr. Koshiro's name.
However, what Ian didn't expect at all was that when he heard the name Koshiro, Mihawk suddenly turned around and stared at Ian.
"Koshiro?" Mihawk couldn't help but raise his voice: "You are brother Koshiro's disciple!?"
"Master...Senior brother!?" Ian was stunned for a moment, what the hell, this word contains so much information!
"You... you know the teacher?" Ian asked Mihawk in disbelief.
Mihawk nodded and said: "Yes, when I was young, I used to study martial arts in the same dojo with brother Koshiro for more than ten years!"
"But...but..." Ian wanted to say something incoherently, but he didn't know how to describe it.
Because in Ian's opinion, the difference in sword skills between Hawkeye and Koshiro is too great. Koshiro is a very pure Japanese style of swordsmanship, while Mihawk is biased towards Western sword skills. This can be seen from the way they dress It can be seen from looking at it, so Ian can't believe that these two people will be brothers.
Mihawk also seemed to see Ian's doubts, so he shook his head and said: "It's nothing strange, because our master only taught us the basic swordsmanship at the beginning, and then let us develop individually. Disciple, the kendo formed in the end is different, you just need to know that Koshiro is indeed my senior brother!"
After finishing speaking, he couldn't help lowering the brim of his hat, and secretly sighed, he didn't expect that even senior brother Koshiro's disciple would be a teacher now, and he had become so powerful.
To whom will I pass my sword skills to in the future
Hearing Mihawk's explanation, Ian also figured it out. It seems that this is indeed the case. When Koshiro taught Ian and the three of them, he only taught basic swordsmanship.
"So it's... Uncle Master!" Ian called out the title with great difficulty.
Can it be difficult? Before, they were still fighting as equal opponents, but in the blink of an eye, this seniority fell.
This is the cheating! Ian had a toothache, why did he feel so embarrassed all of a sudden
After discovering that Ian turned out to be his nephew, Mihawk didn't leave, and walked towards Ian's boat, intending to drink some more wine, but Ian had no choice but to follow behind.
"What's the matter?" Ace and the others didn't hear the conversation between the two, but they just found it strange. Why did Ian become a little reserved towards Mihawk after the fight
Reiju and Robin looked at Ian, wanting to hear his explanation. To be honest, they were under too much pressure when they faced Hawkeye. Those eagle-like eyes made them feel uncomfortable every time they saw them. Mihawk seemed to be leaving at first, why did he come on board again in a blink of an eye
"Cough cough!" Ian was a little depressed by the two people, so he coughed and introduced: "Well, let me introduce again, this is my uncle! Qiwuhai's eagle-eyed Joe Rachel Miho Ke! He and my master used to be brothers..."
"..." After hearing Ian's introduction, the two beauties were also speechless.
Is this the flood that washed the Dragon King Temple
On the contrary, Ace laughed heartlessly. He clutched his cowboy hat and laughed loudly: "Haha, Ian, I didn't expect your seniority to come down all of a sudden!"
He and Ian wanted to go together.
Ian gave him an annoyed look, and watched Mihawk take off his hat and put it on the table, and sipped his beer. Ian had no choice but to walk over and sat down opposite him, a little curious He asked calmly, "Can you tell me about Mr. Koshiro? Although Mr. Koshiro has adopted me for so many years, he has never mentioned his own affairs."
Hearing this, Mihawk couldn't help but glanced at Ian again. He heard from Ian's words that Ian seemed to be not just the disciple of Senior Koshiro, but also an adopted son!
Ever since, Mihawk looked at Ian's eyes, and couldn't help but soften a lot.
"Actually, I have nothing to tell you!" Mihawk stroked his short hair back, and said to Ian: "When I was young, out of my love for kendo, I found a man called I study art in the gymnasium of Xinyuan Dojo, but because of my eyes, many senior brothers stay away from me. Only senior brother Koshiro takes good care of me. He has been very gentle since he was a child... "
"There is nothing to say about the process of learning art. As our sword skills become more and more sophisticated, we have gradually grown up!" Mihawk leaned his head on the chair, and said with some nostalgia: "Senior Brother Koshiro and I are together. When we debuted, we wanted to work together to forge ahead in this sea, but a major event happened at that time, which caused some differences between us."
"It was the day 22 years ago, when the One Piece King Gol D. Roger was executed..."
Mihawk talked about a very special time, which attracted Ace and Reiju Robin, and they couldn't help coming over to listen.
"On that day, the navy publicly executed Roger the Pirate King in Rogue Town, and my brother Koshiro and I witnessed the whole scene together!" Mihawk said: "Afterwards, I think that the era of great pirates is coming, and this will be the last time for pirates. During the glorious period, he proposed to Koshiro senior brother to be a pirate together, but Koshiro senior brother disagreed, he felt that troubled times were coming, and even if we didn’t fight against pirates, we couldn’t help evildoers.”
"At that time, neither of us could convince the other, so we separated! We each went out to sea, and I gradually became famous in this sea, but Brother Koshiro disappeared!" Mihawk sighed: "And the only thing I knew later, The news about Brother Koshiro is just a letter from him. In the letter, he told me that he is married... As for after that, I have never heard from him. If I hadn’t met you this time, From your swordsmanship, I can see a little bit of his shadow at the beginning, but I still can't confirm it... "
"He is single now!" Ian saw Mihawk's eyes look over, and told Mihawk about Master Koshiro's recent situation: "Master passed away not long after giving birth to younger sister, and now he opened a In the middle dojo, I have been teaching children who want to learn swords."
"Really?" Mihawk grinned and said, "This is the life he wants..."
Speaking of this, Mihawk couldn't help but glanced at Qianben Sakura on Ian's waist, and said, "Speaking of which, I remember that Senior Brother Koshiro has a famous sword, which is written in Hedao. It was the blade he got shortly after he went to sea. Why didn't he keep for you?"
Ian shrugged and said, "There is no way, because Master Koshiro's biological daughter, that is, my junior sister, wants to take it away. As a senior brother, how can I grab something from my junior sister?"
"Oh? Girls also learn swordsmanship?" Mihawk asked with some surprise: "Didn't Brother Koshiro always think that it is difficult for girls to learn swordsmanship well?"
Sure enough, Mihawk is really Master Koshiro's younger brother, and he even knows this kind of thing.
Yian made a few remarks without elaborating, but he let Mihawk know that there are three personal disciples of Master Koshiro.
After talking about the past for a while, Hawkeye picked up his hat and put it on his head, stood up, and said, "Okay, I'm leaving, since I know that senior brother Koshiro is fine, then I'm relieved, as for you, Ian , your swordsmanship has already embarked on your own unique path, and the rest is only the understanding of the realm, which depends on you, and I can't teach you anything."
Ian nodded and didn't feel regretful. Although Hawkeye, the world's number one swordsman, is here, it would be a pity not to ask for advice, but as Hawkeye said, he really can't teach Ian too much now.
Before leaving, Mihawk glanced at Ace, looking thoughtful, but didn't say anything, and then he jumped on his own boat smartly, spread the sails and left.
