The Great Swordsman's Training Method

……

Back to the tavern.

Junichi and Hawkeye enjoyed a sumptuous feast of sea kings.

Hancock was also seated.

Because of her experience of being kidnapped, she and her two younger sisters requested special training.

I spent the whole morning practicing and only had time to come back at noon.

"Wow!"

"That amazing?"

"So that's how you master cutting iron?"

As she listened to Hawkeye recount how he had taught Junichi that morning, her expression was one of constant amazement.

The way they looked at Junichi was like stars in their eyes.

Such obvious goodwill is clear to everyone.

Junichi had no choice but to bite the bullet, pretend to be confused, and not respond to 12-year-old Hancock's feelings.

He really doesn't smelt virgins.

……

After lunch.

Junichi and Hawkeye went out to continue their training.

Hancock was also reluctantly taken away by the female warriors to undergo arduous training.

In the bar.

Only Raleigh and Peony remained.

"I told you so," Rayleigh said smugly, raising an eyebrow at Peony. "As soon as a promising young man shows his talent, Hawkeye's attitude changes immediately."

"Look at what we were doing while we were eating."

"His attitude was as warm as if he were treating his own apprentice."

Peony rolled her eyes and nodded helplessly: "Yes, yes, you're the best. You figured it out before anyone else did."

"Hahaha." Rayleigh didn't care about being teased; instead, he laughed even harder.

……

……

It was the same place where we practiced this morning.

Junichi and Hawkeye arrived.

"Tell me about your swordsmanship first, it'll help digest your food and pass the time," Hawkeye said.

"Thank you for your help." Zhun nodded slightly.

He explained the details of the Uchiha-style swordsmanship one by one.

soon.

With Hawkeye's help, a completely new Uchiha-style swordsmanship was created.

This new Uchiha-style swordsmanship retains its powerful and explosive style.

However, the main framework has been completely altered.

It completely abandoned the original roughness, rigidity, and haste, and became incredibly perfect.

Not only can it be used with Fire Release, but it can also be combined with other Release techniques, such as Lightning Release, Genjutsu, Shadow Clone, etc., by fine-tuning the moves.

As long as you think it through.

He can replicate the techniques of the Hatake-ryu and Konoha-ryu styles at any time.

[You are learning the new Uchiha-style swordsmanship, proficiency +1]

【Ding dong! 】

[Your new Uchiha-style swordsmanship has reached the required proficiency level and has been automatically upgraded.]

[New Uchiha-style Swordsmanship - Proficient (678/1000)]

The skill proficiency level has also increased dramatically from the original '14' to '678'.

This is not difficult to understand.

Swordsmanship, in essence, is about enabling swordsmen to better unleash their power.

The ultimate expression of a swordsman's power is cutting through iron!

Once Junichi mastered the art of cutting iron, his power became condensed and unified. In turn, learning swordsmanship became much easier and more effortless.

His personal panel also changed to look like this.

-

[Host: Uchiha Junichi]

Age: 15

【技能：新·宇智波流剑术·熟练（678/100）……武装色霸气·熟练（45/100）、见闻色霸气·熟练（36/100）、基础剑术·特殊（入门即满级）、斩铁·特殊（入门即满级）】

-

Those ninjutsu techniques would temporarily hide the panel.

He mainly studies the world of One Piece and learns skills from it.

The two colors are imposing, and both have increased from single digits to double digits.

soon.

You will then be able to master the skill of 'entanglement' and advance to the next level – mastery.

At this time.

Junichi and Hawkeye have almost digested it.

"Continue your training," Hawkeye said.

"it is good."

Junichi turned off the panel and stood up from the ground.

"You have already mastered the art of cutting iron, and you can imitate most sword techniques after just a few glances."

"But having too many sword techniques is meaningless; what matters most is finding the right one for you."

"That modified sword technique suits your style quite well, so there's no need to teach you sword techniques."

Hawkeye paused, his expression thoughtful.

"I will teach you the training methods of a great swordsman."

"A great swordsman, huh..." Junichi nodded slightly, not surprised.

To master the art of cutting through iron is to become a swordsman.

After the sword master, comes the great sword master who has mastered the flying slash!

"Great swordsmen are all those who have mastered the Flying Slash. They can unleash slashing waves, with power extending hundreds or even thousands of meters away," Hawkeye said, drawing the black sword from his back.

Black Knife - Night.

One of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords that are known to exist.

Its handle is cross-shaped, and the blade is long and thick, with a double-flowered T-shaped engraving in the middle.

The moment this knife is drawn, it exudes an invisible deterrent force.

It looks like some kind of knife pressure.

The air around us seemed to freeze.

"Let me demonstrate it for you."

Hawkeye casually swung his black knife, the movement effortless.

Hiss!

The air crackled with a tearing sound, as if it were being ripped apart.

A sharp slash wave, drawn out by Hawkeye, shot out towards the sea ahead like a crescent moon.

Jun's eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously activated his Sharingan.

Under the insight of the Sharingan.

An indescribable sense of harmony was present in this flying slash.

……

Swish!Swish!Swish!

The shockwave cut through the air and pierced the sea surface 800 meters away.

Bang!

A giant wave, tens of meters high, surged up and turned into a sky full of water droplets.

"Your eyes..." Hawkeye turned around and glanced at Junichi's crimson eyes, "A Devil Fruit?"

"No, it's an innate ability." Junichi shook his head. "It enhances my perception."

"Yeah?"

Hawkeye looked surprised, then said knowingly, "It seems you come from a special race, but it's best not to reveal this ability, or it will attract covetous eyes."

"I know." Jun nodded slightly and closed his Sharingan.

The Uchiha's bloodline limit can be interpreted as an ability of a special race, which is also acceptable.

In the world of One Piece, there are indeed various special races.

For example, the Giants, the Long-Skulled Tribe, the Savage Tribe, the Dwarf Tribe, the Mermaid Tribe, the Three-Eyed Tribe, and so on.

"Let's get back to the Flying Slash."

Hawkeye ignored the change in his eyes and continued, "Flying Slash is different from Armament Haki, and it is not an external manifestation of Armament Haki."

"It is the profound meaning that a swordsman comprehends after breaking through his own limits and integrating 'mind, body, strength, and energy' into one."

"It symbolizes the perfect state of swordsmanship."

Zhunyi listened thoughtfully.

The panel also displays a prompt.

[You are learning the Ultimate Technique: Flying Slash, Proficiency +1]

"The difficulty of the Flying Slash varies from person to person," Hawkeye continued. "Some people may master it in three to five years, while others may never master it in their entire lives."

"This level requires a swordsman to look back after reaching the end of his path."

"Go and master the opposite of your own swordsmanship!"

"Then, the front and the back merge into one, and a new power is born, which is the flying slash."

Hearing these words...

Three prompts popped up on the panel in one go.

[You are learning the Ultimate Technique: Flying Slash, Proficiency +1]

[You are learning the Ultimate Technique: Flying Slash, Proficiency +1]

[You are learning the Ultimate Technique: Flying Slash, Proficiency +1]

Junichi stroked his chin, a realization dawning on him.

He remembered that in the original work, Hawkeye's swordsmanship combined strength and gentleness, yin and yang, and he could perfectly demonstrate any style of move.
