Early the next day, in Shimotsuki Village.
The morning mist enveloped the earth, and the fishermen in the harbor were already at sea.
Standing at the Port, El stared at the misty sea.
Nami next to him held a pocket watch, noticed the beating of the watch, and said, "It's already 6:50, he won't come, right?"
"It's normal not to come, after all, she's not like us."
Carina was not surprised, but perfectly understood: "Even if she could let go of her family and choose to go to sea with us at her age, her father would not agree."
"However, as a parent, how can you be sure that your daughter will go to sea at such a young age?"
"...That's right." Nami nodded.
"Take off the anchor, he's almost there."
At this moment, El suddenly spoke up.
"Eh?!"
Carina was stunned for a moment, she had not expected the slap on her face to come so quickly.
However, Carina was more shocked than embarrassed to be slapped on her face: "She didn't sneak out, did she?"
"He was sent by his own father." El shook his head.
"Yin-san..."
Carina squinted her sapphire-like eyes, looking at El, she asked with a puzzled expression, "she hasn't come yet, how do you know this?"
"Could it be, Nii-san, you have a third eye?" Nami also looked at El suspiciously.
"You're right to say that."
El glanced at Nami, and then admitted to the two girls a secret at the top of the iceberg: "I do have special perceptual abilities. In this world, it was an ability called the Haki Observation."
"Haki's Observation?"
Nami was a little surprised.
Carina recalled the scene of the exchange between El and Koushirou yesterday when they stopped fighting, then she suddenly said, "So then, you asked the owner of the Dojo yesterday, nii-san?"
"perception ability, Observation Haki..."
Without waiting for El to nod, Carina recalled the experience a month ago, she continued as if she was breaking through layers of clouds and fog. "No wonder nii-san doesn't need to gather intelligence all the time, yet you can still locate the enemy very accurately. Turns out you used your ability to gather intelligence."
"Good"
El looked at Carina and nodded in appreciation.
"...sorry I'm late!"
Just when Carina and Nami were about to ask for more information about Haki's observation.
In his third ear, there was suddenly a shout coming from a distant place.
Looking towards the direction from which the voice came, they saw a figure with a height of about 1.45 meters, carrying a large bag, holding a sword with a sheath and a white handle, running in this direction.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Kuina said with a slightly quick breath, she seemed to have run all the way here since she came out, her face flushed a little, and there were a few drops of sweat on her forehead.
"alright..."
El shook his head, looking at Kuina with a smile: "Have you said goodbye to your family?"
"Uh-huh ..."
Kuina nodded excitedly and smiled: "Dad, she agreed let me go to the sea with you."
"Seek advice, please,
Kuina shook hands with El, then bowed slightly to Carina and Nami.
"Please tell me, Sister Kuina."
Carina and Nami responded to Kuina very politely.
then...
Three small bounty hunters have officially become four.
"Goodbye, Isshin Dojo...Goodbye, Shimotsuki Village..."
After the little sailing ship left.
Standing on the deck, Kuina looked at the island still shrouded in white fog, where she had lived for nearly eleven years. His eyes were a little sad, but were quickly replaced by a stern expression.
Although her heart was full of reluctance, for her dreams and to prove herself to her father, she had to give up her hometown even her family and friends.
This was the choice of Kuina Shimotsuki, the descendant of the Sword God.
"...seriously, I was very surprised by your choice."
Just when Kuina said goodbye to her hometown and Isshin Dojo in her heart.
El's voice suddenly came from behind him.
he saw El walking to his side, looking at the island that was gradually getting smaller due to the white mist, and sighed: "We only met for the first time, we only met for the first time, but you've finally followed us to follow your dreams. Is it really worth going with a stranger to go out to sea, choosing to leave your family and hometown?"
"Also, aren't you afraid that we are the bad guys?"
with El's voice, Kuina is pulled back into the real world.
Looking at El, who was about the same height as him, Kuina's lips lifted slightly and said, "The swordsman's eyes won't deceive him"
"I believe in my intuition and my father's... My dream is to become No. 1 swordsman, and you will be my greatest challenge in realizing my dream."
"Following you and defeating you will be the goal of my life!"
With the last sentence, Kuina issued a statement to El.
If not for the ability to read people's hearts, El would have thought the girl in front of him was confessing to him.
But I must say that this ambiguous word makes El's expectations slightly increased: "Are you personally training your opponent to compete with yourself as the world? the greatest swordsman? Sounds pretty good."
"You .. don't think about it, I don't mean anything else!"
At this moment, Kuina realized just how ambiguity she had just said.
she saw her little face slightly red, her eyes dodged and she did not dare to look directly at him, and her tone was also a little confused.
"By the way, my dad gave you something!"
Without waiting for El to continue teasing her, Kuina suddenly took off the bag on her back as if remembering something.
Opening her bag, Kuina took out a diary from her and handed it to El: "This is what my father gave me last night, he asked me to give it to you."
"What did the senior give me?"
El took the diary in curiosity.
Automatically read Kuina's heart,
However, the reward of a Master Swordsman was definitely not an ordinary thing.
So, El opened the diary with the feeling of opening a blind box.
When he looked at the contents of the diary, his red pupils inevitably shrank.
"This is..."
