Chapter 72 - Chapter 72: Wano, Konoha, and the Confused Swordmaster

"What's wrong? Who sent a message"?

At this time, Mikoto, who had just finished a stage of training and was about to take a break, noticed Ethan's unusual movements and couldn't help but walk over to ask.

Kushina and Minato were also distracted immediately, and they all stopped and looked over.

"Nothing! It's just that Ryuu lit up the map of Shimotsuki Island. We can go to Shimotsuki Island in a few days to learn the kendo of this world!"

"How about it? Do you want to go?"

Ethan raised the note in his hand and asked with a smile.

Mikoto nodded: "Go! It's a long time ago! It's a good time to see the kendo of this world!"

That is a sword technique that can split mountains and cut seas, and it must be learned.

Minato: "Ditto!"

Kushina saw it and curled her lips and said, "You all went, so I naturally have to go and see! As for whether to learn it? Let's see!"

She herself is not very interested in kendo!

But it doesn't prevent her from watching the fun.

Just treat it as a trip.

"Then let's go back and inform my mother and let her take us there! It will save us from many problems."

Ethan decided immediately.

Of course, they can go by themselves.

But a few strange children suddenly came to the door to learn kendo, which was problematic no matter how you looked at it.

In addition, Koshiro's family came to East Blue to settle down after taking refuge from Wano, so they would be more cautious.

It would be more convincing if his mother took them together, adults + children.

Minato and the others naturally had no objection.

Immediately, several people sent the retainers of Ninja World Xuan back.

It happened that Sarah was at home at this time. "Huh? Why are you back at this time? And so all together? What happened?"

Sarah was processing documents.

Seeing the four people appear together, she stopped writing and asked with some surprise. "Yeah!"

Ethan nodded affirmatively and said, "Ryuu just sent a message saying that the map of Shimotsuki Island has been lit up, so we want you to take us there to learn kendo or something!" 

"Are you free now?" 

"Yes! It's the same with Shadow Clone for a few files."

Uchiha Ethan nodded, immediately separated a Shadow Clone, and waved to the four people: "Okay! Let's go now! Get it done as soon as possible so that I can come back earlier!"

As he said, Uchiha Ethan took the lead in teleporting away from here and appeared at the edge of Shimotsuki Island. "Swish swish swish!"

Immediately afterwards, Ethan and the other four also teleported here. "Let's go! Let's go here to figure out the situation first, and then buy a yard here as a base!" "After all, you may need to come here often to practice for at least several years in the future."

Except for Ethan, Mikoto and the others want to master the kendo of this world and become swordsmen, but there is no way to achieve it quickly.

In this world, sword masters are only a small group of swordsmen who can reach the level.

"Yeah!"

Ethan and the others nodded obediently and followed Uchiha Ethan's arrangements.

Soon, the group came to the village on the island. The unfamiliar and outstanding faces attracted a lot of attention at once.

After some inquiries, Uchiha Ethan successfully bought a yard of more than 300 square meters from the village chief.

Then, Ethan brought himself and the other four to the Isshin Kenjo Dojo.

After some explanations, they met the owner of the kendo dojo, Shimotsuki Koshiro.

Koshiro invited them to sit in the living room and asked someone to make tea.

"You are Mr. Koshiro, right? I want to bring a child to worship you as a teacher and learn kendo from you. I wonder if you think so?"

After taking a sip of tea, Uchiha Ethan asked directly.

"In principle, I won't refuse children's admission. As for whether they will directly become my disciples, this will require further observation! I hope you can understand this." Koshiro responded with a gentle smile.

He didn't know Ethan and the others well enough to accept them rashly.

However, judging from the way Uchiha and the others dressed, he had some doubts about their identities.

"That's normal! Then enroll first! Or you can take the test first!"

"But they don't have the foundation of kendo."

Sarah nodded and smiled.

Becoming a disciple is a very serious matter, and it's normal for Koshiro to need further investigation!

"Okay! Then enroll first and learn the basics of kendo from me for a while!"

Koshiro nodded, then looked at Sarah and couldn't help asking, "However, as a strong woman like you, why would you choose to bring your children to study in a kendo hall in an unknown village like mine?"

"Although your physique is average, I can sense a sense of fatal danger from you. You should be a big shot."

He believes in his intuition and perception very much.

This is one of the gains from his many years of kendo practice.

"Oh?"

Uchiha Ethan raised his eyebrows slightly and said with interest, "You are really amazing! Very sharp intuition. Most people would not think that I am so strong if they sense my physical strength!"

"As for your question?"

"For some reason, I know your background and your strength, and I also recognize your teaching ability!"

"Plus, my children are very interested in kendo... so..."

"Uh! Tha"t

At this time, Kushina suddenly raised his hand and interrupted a little embarrassedly: "I have no interest in kendo, and I am not going to learn it. I just came to accompany Ethan and the others." 

"Hehe!"

Koshiro:...

Uchiha Ethan:....

Uchiha Ethan glared at Kushina, turned back to look at Koshiro, and continued, "That's about it! As a great swordsman, you must have no problem with your teaching ability!

"Sure enough,"

Koshiro sighed slightly and said with a complicated look, "You should also be from Wano? Or have a close relationship with Wano!"

"I didn't expect that leaving Wano has been here for so many years, and someone as powerful as you has appeared. Can you tell me how Wano is doing now?"

"No! You misunderstood!"

Uchiha Ethan laughed and shook his head and said, "Although our clothes and appearance may cause you to have some misunderstandings, I can tell you clearly that we are not from Wano but from Konoha Shinobi Village!"

"It has nothing to do with Wano!"

"..."

Koshiro was slightly stunned when he heard it, and his intuition told him that Uchiha Ethan was not lying.

"Not really? Surprising!"

"Sorry, it seems that I know it; it's really that your clothes and appearance are really similar to Wano!"

Koshiro apologized quickly and then asked in confusion, "However, Konoha Shinobi Village—I have never heard of it, and it is hard to understand whether it is related to ninjas."

"Almost!"

Uchiha Ethan nodded: "Konoha is a hidden ninja village, and very few people walk outside!"

"However, I do know some information about Wano."

Then, Uchiha Ethan directly told Koshiro some current information about Wano.

When Koshiro heard that Oden was killed by Kaido's tricks and the entire Wano was also living in dire straits under the notification of Kurozumi Orochi supported by Kaido, his face turned very ugly.

He slowly closed his eyes, was silent for a long time, and then opened his eyes and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was really angry about this news!"

"It's normal; I can understand!"

Uchiha Ethan nodded without comment: "If it were me, I would be very angry too!"

The stupidity of Oden is beyond the understanding of normal people.

Anyway, when Uchiha Ethan first saw this information, he was also quite speechless.

This kind of person actually became a hero of Wano.

This is simply an insult to the word hero.

"Thank you for telling me this news, and please rest assured that I will teach your children as well as possible!"

Koshiro thanked him and promised. Of course, he still didn't agree to become his disciple. This kind of thing can't be done casually.

But he also had a better impression of Uchiha Ethan and the others.

He decided that as long as Ethan and the others had decent kendo aptitude and no major problems with their origins, he would accept them as formal disciples to teach them the Ten Heart Style Kendo.

"Then please! Why not start from today! I just want to take a look!"

Uchiha Ethan bowed slightly.

Yeah! By the way, she will also learn the basic kendo of this world.

As for the more advanced ones, wait until Ethan learns them and then let him teach her?

She had no doubt that Ethan could become Koshiro's apprentice and learn all his secret kendo.

No one could refuse such a demon disciple as their own precious son.

There was nothing that could stump their own precious son.

"Sure! Please follow me!"

Koshiro would naturally not refuse.

He immediately brought Ethan and the others to the indoor training ground of the dojo.

He introduced Ethan and the others to other colleges and instructors.

Then, Shiro began to teach Ethan and the others the basic kendo in person.

As a result... a few minutes later,

"How is this possible?"

Koshiro and other instructors and students saw that Ethan could learn it after just one look, and every subsequent practice could improve at a speed visible to the naked eye.

They were directly stunned.

Seeing that Ethan had practiced the basic kendo to a proficient level in just half an hour, they were even more shocked.

In comparison, although Minato and Mikoto also got started easily and made rapid progress, they could be called geniuses.

But compared with Ethan, they were completely on a different level.

"This is really... If I wasn't sure that this child should have never practiced kendo before, I would have thought you were teasing me!"

"I didn't expect that your son was actually a kendo demon!"

"I will accept this disciple!"

"No! I should accept all three disciples!"

Koshiro smiled bitterly and said to Ethan with a serious face,.

He didn't care so much about the identities of Ethan at this time.

At the same time, I don't think anyone would send such a demon genius to target him...

He is not worthy.

So, it is no problem to bite these three people.

Maybe there may be a day when he can ask them for help in the future.

Wano, he always can't let it go.

Especially after hearing about Wano's current miserable situation.

"Then I'll leave it to Mr. Koshiro!"

Uchiha Ethan smiled and bowed slightly.

Things went smoothly as expected, which is great.

It also saves the trouble later.

"No! I should thank you for sending me three such disciples!"

Koshiro smiled and shook his head and bowed back.

Genius disciples are not easy to find.

Not to mention demon disciples.

Next, Ethan, Minato, and Mikoto, witnessed by Uchiha Ethan and others, paid homage to Koshiro, officially worshipped him as a master, and began to learn kendo from Koshiro.

The daily training was also transferred from Sky Island to Shimotsuki Island.

A few hours of kendo training were added every day.

Although Kushina was not planning to learn kendo, she also came here.

She couldn't stay alone on Sky Island to expand the drum island, right?

"Are you Kuina? Hello, I'm Uzumaki Kushina; just call me Sister Kushina!"

When Ethan and the others were apprenticing, Kushina saw a cute little girl peeping at him. She looked like a porcelain doll. Her eyes lit up immediately, and she ran over, squatted down, and stretched out her hand to pinch her.

Pinch the little girl's cheek and say,.

"Sister Kushina!"

Kuina felt that this sister was very kind and immediately called out politely.

"Hey! So good! So cute!"

Kushina heard it and happily reached out and touched Kuina's head.

This scene happened to be seen by Koshiro, who was accepting the apprenticeship over there, and Shiro also smiled knowingly.

Koshiro felt that it would be a good thing for Kuina to have a few more genius brothers and sisters of roughly the same age.

With a few genius brothers and sisters to help in the future, he believed that Kuina would go further and safer.

After Ethan and the others completed their apprenticeship, Uchiha Ethan did not stay here for long.

He just talked with Koshiro in detail for a while, gave hundreds of kilograms of gold as a gift for apprenticeship and Ethan and the others' subsequent daily food expenses and medicinal bath expenses, and then said goodbye and left, returned to the purchased yard, and teleported to the ninja world.

"Oh my! This is too much money! Even if we provide Sea Kings with meat for every meal and a top-grade medicinal bath every day, it won't cost so much!"

Koshiro looked at the hundreds of kilograms of gold that Uchiha Ethan left behind, smiled bitterly, and shook his head.

He was not even given the chance to refuse; what else could he do?

"Ethan, after finishing today's study, you should take this gold back! I really can't accept it!"

"As a master, it is my duty to provide you with food, drink, and medicinal baths, and you don't have to pay for it!"

Koshiro said to Ethan,. "Oh! Teacher, just keep it!"

Ethan saw it and waved his hand and said, "Our family is rich. We have received a large sum of money recently. We don't need this little gold!"

"You have a lot of expenses here and are not rich. Plus, the three of us are big eaters, so you should keep it! Otherwise, we will be embarrassed to eat and drink here!"

"Oh! By the way! As for the medicinal bath, I am a pretty good doctor. I can mix the most suitable medicinal bath for us, so you don't need to prepare it for us!"

"I will prepare it myself every day!"

During this period, Mikoto and the others prepared the medicinal bath for him.

With his current medical skills, he can beat 90% of the doctors in the two worlds.

"Huh? You also know medical skills?"

Koshiro was stunned when he heard it.

Judging from Ethan's tone, his medical skills are probably not simple, right? Otherwise, how could Ethan say such a big thing? The key is, can Uchiha Ethan still agree to let him prepare the medicinal bath for the three of them? He felt that he didn't know his evil disciple well enough. "Yes! I have been learning medical skills from Ms. Kureha of Magnetic Drum Island recently, and the progress is very good!" 

"I will continue to learn from her every day in the future!"

Ethan nodded.

He didn't plan to hide the information that he could teleport from them.

Because, with Koshiro's observation Haki, unless they don't use this ability on Shimotsuki Island in the future, unless they stay on Shimotsuki Island all the time, otherwise, they will be discovered soon.

Rather than forming a trust crisis at that time, it is better to say it directly.

Anyway, Koshiro's character is trustworthy.

The ability of teleportation is not unheard of in the pirate world. "Drum Island? Ms.

Kuleha?"

"Isn't Drum Island in the first half of the Grand Line? It's far from here! How do you go there every day?"

Koshiro asked in confusion.

"Because we have the ability to teleport, we can teleport to any place we have been to at any time. It's very convenient!"

Ethan said bluntly,"

While saying this, he also showed off his super short-distance teleportation.

Koshiro: "..."

He was completely numb.
