The winter in the East China Sea is warmer than the winter in the West China Sea and the North Sea.
On the right half of the snow-covered Golber Mountain, the territory of Siger's gang, the sound of gunshots and screams formed a different symphony.
"Boss, there are too many people on the other side. I think that guy Sig has united all the bandits on that mountain!!"
"Nani? Don't be afraid, bring up my Italian cannon and blow it up, as well as those Gatling and Barrett things that are exaggerated and useless, let the younger brothers put them up and let them see them.
See what Pai Mian is."
"yes!!"
Dadan, who was hiding behind a big rock, held a steel revolver in each hand and a cigar in his mouth. From time to time he would raise his hand to fire two shots at the opponent.
On the left half of Golbo Mountain, the Dadan family was empty. Only Kazan was sitting at home quietly reading the news. This tranquility in the mountains and forests made Kazan feel like he was back in the gym where Arad usually trained.
.
"Master, Dadan and the others are fighting with Sig."
At this time, a man with a long scar on his face and a gloomy crew cut suddenly ran in from the door.
"Um."
Kazan responded softly, patted the empty seat next to him, and asked the little flat head to sit down.
More than five months have passed since Kazan came to the Dadan family. Kazan has become the boss behind the Dadan family. People in Windmill Village said that Garp has not come back during this period. If he comes back, Maginot and
Slap will arrange Robin and Perona.
However, when Kazan went to Windmill Village to look for Robin and Perona not long ago, Slap told Kazan: "Karp will probably come back at the end of the year to celebrate the New Year. You should be careful by then. It is best to go to Goa City.
Hide inside for a while."
Four months ago, Nagli's boat was ready. Kazan visited him and personally watched him raise his pirate flag and sail away from the place where he had lived for so many years.
And this scarred-faced boy with a gloomy face and the words "world-weary" and "unworthy of this world" written all over his face was the one Kazan saved from a group of pirates during his visit to Slap.
——————
Four months ago, Uncertainty Terminal.
"She's as much of a bitch as your mother, Tiga."
"Shut up, everyone. You haven't tried it. His brother's is called Shutan."
"Go away, you bastard, and stay away from me from now on."
"By the way, his father is a pervert. He made his daughter into a doll. It makes me irritated just thinking about it. Fortunately, I killed him."
A group of pirates threw a dark-skinned boy into a garbage pile and spat on and beat him, but the latter just held his head and endured it silently in the garbage pile without saying a word.
"Hey, we were talking to you, didn't you hear?!"
One of the pirates grabbed Tiga by the neck, lifted him into the air and cursed fiercely at Tiga.
Tija's eyes were gray, without any trace of luster. He just stared blankly at the pirate who was holding him, silently.
The pirate who was stared at by Tiga felt panicked, threw him to the ground, and slashed him with a knife.
A bloody scar was cut on Tija's face, but he did not even utter a cry, letting the blood on his face stain the ground red.
"Okay, let's kill him."
Hahaha.
Tija laughed silently, these beasts couldn't bear it at such a moment?
Swish.
"Before you die...will the world turn red?"
"No, you can only see it turn red if you are alive."
Tija moved her eyes to look at the man with white hair and blood eyes amid the floating blood and snowflakes.
"Are you a god?"
"Do gods have hands like ghosts?"
"Can you ask Mr. Ghost to kill me?"
"No obligation."
"Can you let me die quietly?"
"Weak people have no right to choose how to die."
"..."
"I need a real apprentice, and it's you."
Kazan lifted Tiga who was lying on the ground half-dead, and then walked slowly towards Golbo Mountain.
——————
"Swing the sword 30,000 times, are you done?"
"Yes."
Kazan glanced at the steel sword tied to Tija's waist. The steel sword had become tattered in four months. It could be seen that Tija did not cut corners on the training tasks arranged by Kazan.
.
"I'll change my sword to a new one when I pass by the ship tomorrow."
"yes."
Kazan glanced at Tija again. This guy was even more boring than Ajin. If Ajin was a boring guy, then this guy was really boring, boring to death.
Kazan stood up, walked to Tiga, reached out and squeezed his muscles: "Well, you are much stronger than when I first met you."
"..."
"Let's go, today I will teach you how to use a sword to move around."
Kazan pulled out the Dark Moon from his waist. Iai had not been touched for almost nine years. It could be said that Kazan had never used Iai since he became a berserker.
When I first learned Iai from my master, Black Sword Dark Moon was still the Light of the Moon.
Kazan knew that he could no longer pass on his master's sword skills, so he let Tiga try to continue on this path.
After four months of getting along, apart from Tiga's gloomy attitude toward everything, Kazan had no issues that dissatisfied her.
In terms of character, Kazan has always believed in his own vision.
Therefore, he trusted Tiga and decided to teach him all the sword skills he had learned from his master. As for what kind of path Tiga could take in the future, he did not want to interfere.
Kazan took Tiga to a small waterfall, which is where Tiga usually practices his sword.
"Watch it."
"Um."
Iai-Lan Zhan.
A faint blue sword light flashed, and the small waterfall was cut in half by the sword light at that moment.
If the master were to deliver this blow, at least Mount Gorbo would be split in half.
"See clearly?"
"without."
"Watch it again."
"Um."
...
On this day, Kazan demonstrated Iihe five hundred times, and then asked Tiga to start learning on his own.
While Tiga was practicing Iai, Kazan had been watching his progress with his arms folded. This serious attitude in teaching made Ace Sabo and Luffy sore.
Everyone is an apprentice, so why is he the biological child?
This is of course different. The three little ones don't need Kazan to teach them any skills now. They just need to continuously strengthen their bodies.
But Tiga was different. Kazan was very strict with him. Even he was not so strict with his brothers. While learning swordsmanship, he had to take into account his physical fitness.
If any mistake was made, Kazan would whip Tiga with a wooden stick.
This is how Kazan came through in the first place, and this was also a sign that he truly taught Tiga as his disciple.
Kazan can see it, maybe only Kazan can see it.
Every time Tiga swung his sword, there would be a moment of ferocity in his eyes, which reminded Kazan of his senior brother. From his master's description, he was in the same situation as Tiga.
Kazan was a little concerned about this, but not particularly concerned.
Because at least in his opinion, the senior brother did nothing wrong and just embarked on the path he wanted to take.
He once asked his friends from the Dark Elf clan to help him go to the Shadow Maze to visit his senior brother. He personally heard his soul-lost senior brother say something like this: "I have never regretted my choice."

Ps: I say, now that we have reached this point, we can almost guess who Kazan’s master is. It doesn’t matter if you can’t guess or don’t want to guess. This does not affect the plot, and it will be announced in the text soon.
