In the dojo, except for me and Long, everyone walked up to the high platform on one side. According to Koushiro, accidental injuries can be effectively avoided in that place. Moreover, if there is any accident, Koushiro can also take care of it. This means, is
Do you want me to fight a dragon to the death?
"Cohen, you are a strong man, but I am not weak either. I will go all out for the strong, so don't be merciful." Before the battle started, Long said it like a routine, because he was afraid that I would look down on him and refuse.
Do your best?
"That's embarrassing." I said flatly without any appreciation.
"What an arrogant person." Long smiled lightly and didn't care. He drew out the long knife from his waist and ran towards me quickly, giving all his strength. After running in front of me, Long held the knife in his right hand and the scabbard in his left hand, complementing each other.
, has only one purpose, and that is to sandwich me between the sword and the scabbard, looking for flaws. Long's sword skills are very superb, and combined with the reasonable use of the scabbard, he sometimes attacks from a flank, sometimes sweeps up and down, sometimes cuts, and sometimes
The plucking, sometimes smashing, sometimes picking, each blow is accompanied by strong winds, full of power and aesthetics without losing the rhythm. Just like the poet's poems, full of rhythm but without losing the majestic momentum.
But I was dodging with my bare hands under his attack.
"Uncle Long is so powerful. He completely suppresses his elder brother. Uncle Long's sword skills are so domineering." Koushiro's daughter watched the fight in the field and sighed. "It's not what you think." Koushiro said slowly, "
Your Uncle Long is in danger."
In fact, the two people on the field felt the situation best. The dragon seemed to be attacking fiercely, but in fact he had to attack. I seemed to be tired of coping, but in fact I was guiding every attack of the dragon. It was like
This battle is going on normally according to my design. Unless there is interference from outside forces, the dragon will attack endlessly until it is exhausted. But I am not bored enough to play with my friends. I take advantage of an opportunity.
, I jumped out of the circle and smiled slightly.
"No fight." Long said dejectedly and walked towards Koushiro.
"Haha, my old friend lost miserably?" Koushiro looked at me standing in the distance. Xiaolu ran to my side after the fight and helped me wipe the sweat from my face.
"Aren't you asking questions knowingly?" Long said dissatisfiedly, "If you have the ability, try it. Anyway, I'm out of options. Even if I use my ability, it won't be much better."
"Fortunately, you were useless, otherwise, it might have been worse." Koushiro said softly, "If I read it correctly, you also used Haki, and he didn't seem to notice your Haki at all.
"
"Ah, yes, he always knows my next plan. No matter how I deal with him, he can always solve it well. That's why I don't want to continue playing with him. He seems to me
He knows his roots well, and I feel like hehe."
"With all due respect, your attack is more like being guided by him than coming from your own heart." Koushiro said, "Also, don't you think that the name Cohen seems to have been heard somewhere?"
"Of course I know, but it should be impossible." Long's face was unusually heavy, as if he thought of something bad. "That guy can't be still there, it's been too long."
"I hope, I hope there is no d in his name." Koushiro and Ryu thought at the same time.
"Brother, are you okay?" Xiaolu came to my side and carefully wiped the sweat from my face.
"It's okay, don't worry." I hugged Xiaolu gently and said lovingly, "I worked hard today and I remembered a set of footwork. I will demonstrate it to you and see if you can remember it." After that, I let go.
After opening Xiaolu, I walked to the center of the dojo. A thought flashed through my mind, and a scimitar appeared out of thin air in my right hand. The knife was shaped like a crescent moon. Under the background of the moonlight, it had a special visual impact.
In the distance, Koushiro and Ryuu also noticed my actions and looked at me intently, not knowing what I was going to do.
I raised the knife with my right hand, raised my right foot, put my left toe on the ground, and put my left hand behind my back. It seemed to be a very casual starting position, but I suddenly lost sight of me in the next second. All I saw was like a shooting star in the sky.
The light of the knife, and the occasionally visible footprints on the ground. The night at this moment was extremely quiet. Apart from the sound of people breathing, the only sound left was the sound caused by the friction between the knife and the air. When everything was over, I still stood
Standing in place, looking at Xiaolu's confused eyes, I walked over and touched her little head, "Silly sister, slowly understand, don't you still have me?" "Yes!" Xiaolu nodded gently,
No words were spoken.
"What do you think?" Koushiro asked Long from a distance.
"Dance of Death." Long said a name very directly, "It seems that the worst case scenario has occurred. The guy is not dead at all. The Navy has made a huge joke. But he has lost his memory."
"But another question arises, who does that body belong to?" Koushiro asked thoughtfully, "Did the navy do this on purpose?"
"Unlikely, the Navy attaches great importance to him. If it is not confirmed that he is dead, it will not be relieved. Now it seems that the only explanation is that the Navy has been tricked. But who is it? Who is it?
Is he capable of joining the navy? And why does his appearance change so much?" Long looked at Cohen in the distance, and he and Koushiro were lost in thought.
"No matter what, one thing is certain," Koushiro said slowly after a long while, "The Navy cannot let the news that Cohen is still alive be known. Is there anything you can do?"
"Leave it to me, I'll let him change his name." Long looked at Cohen in the distance with a firm tone, as if he had everything under control.
"Brother, what are you listening to?" Xiaolu asked me in a low voice on the other side. The confusion in her eyes made her look even cuter.
"Nothing, it's just that someone seems to want me to change my name." I said calmly, sorting out the information I got from the conversation between the two people. Navy? Does it have anything to do with me? Also, what does the name Cohen mean?
What? Or, Navy, why must you kill me?
"Brother, who wants you to change your name? Why do you want to change your name?" Xiaolu's question interrupted my train of thought and made me recover from countless questions. "I don't know either," I saw.
He looked at Xiaolu and said softly, "But if I follow their arrangements, it seems that I will get unexpected gains. Besides, no matter what my name is, I am your brother."
When the sunshine came into my eyes the next day, it was already almost noon. I had too many things to think about the night before, so I went to bed a little late. After cleaning up, I walked out of the room and saw the little boy.
Lu was sitting on the stone bench at the door, her legs crossed and swaying back and forth. She was very cute. She was very sensitive and noticed me when I opened the door. She ran over and said to me: "Brother,
Uncle Koshiro and Uncle Long seem to have something to ask you for, let’s go quickly!”
"Oh?" Thinking of the conversation I heard last night, I already guessed what they were going to say to me. "Well, let's go and see."
In the martial arts hall, Long and Koushiro were sitting side by side, with a cup of tea in front of each other. I was facing them, spending time with them. "Cohen, you are an amnesia patient, aren't you?" Long broke the silence first.
, "Do you remember what happened before you lost your memory?"
I pretended to be thinking hard, and then said with regret: "To be honest, I have no impression at all." In fact, this sentence cannot be regarded as lying to them, after all, I really don't know what happened to me in the past.
And I just concealed the fact that I overheard their conversation last night, that's all.
"Cohen, Koushiro and I discussed it. If you had enemies before you lost your memory, there is no guarantee that your enemies will not hear the news about you and come to trouble you. Therefore, we think it is better for you to change your name. What do you think?
What?" Long said cautiously, after all, it was a bit rude to casually ask someone to change their name.
"Oh? Is this what Mr. Koshiro means?" I asked pretending to be curious, "If it is Mr. Koshiro's opinion, I accept it, but there is a condition."
Koushiro secretly glanced at Long, who nodded imperceptibly, and Koushiro followed up with his plan, "Tell me, what are the conditions?"
"I think Kuina is not suitable for your swordsmanship, so I hope I can bring her with me. I have a set of flexible footwork, and I hope I can give it to her."
Koushiro took advantage of my "not paying attention" and glared at Long fiercely. The latter's rare face turned red and he smiled awkwardly, "Congratulations, brother!" Koushiro regained his composure instantly and said calmly: "As long as Koushiro
Ina has no objection, so I won’t say anything. She should still be in the room now, you can go find her yourself."
Ignoring the little moves between the two, I turned around and left the martial arts hall. I closed the door when I went out, then I grabbed Xiaolu and went to find Guina.
"Xiao Lu, from now on the name Cohen will come to an end. Please remember to call me Costa from now on, okay?" I said to Xiao Lu on the way.
"I know." Xiaolu was very obedient and didn't ask why. Instead, she nodded and agreed. "But I prefer to call you brother."
