Chapter 3 Practice and Ability
The wooden house was very quiet, only the sound of the wool-meow that had turned into a kitten was eating grilled fish.
Ross looked at the grilled fish and was happily eating it, and said speechlessly: "In other words, when you eat fruit, a green apple suddenly turned into a devil fruit, and then you accidentally ate it?"
Xiao Wumeow stopped eating grilled fish, nodded at Ross and said, "Yes, but that devil fruit is so unpalatable. It's better to drink sea water than to eat that."
Well……
Facing Wu Meow's complaints, Ross didn't know what to say. If you bought a devil fruit of hundreds of millions of Baileys outside, you can have it just by eating an apple. Is it the most suitable fruit for animals? As a result, you complain that the devil fruit is not delicious?
Rose, who didn't know how to complain, ignored this sentence.
"Then why do you call me grandpa?" Ross asked in confusion.
Xiao Wumiao thought for a while and said, "I saw that the children on the boat used to call the elderly grandfather. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"No problem, of course no problem!"
Ross was so happy that he didn't expect that he could still get a grandson for free when he was old. Although this grandson became a cat, it was also a grandson. This was undoubtedly the greatest comfort for the lonely old man.
"Hey, grandpa."
Hearing Xiaowu meow, Ross immediately smiled kindly: "What's wrong with me?"
After eating the grilled fish, Xiao Wumiao stood on the table like a cat-eared master and opened her hands: "Hug, I see other grandpas like to hold children like this, I want to try it too."
When Ross heard this, he was very happy to hold Xiao Wumiao's butt with one arm and hugged him, "How about it, are you happy to be hugged by grandpa?"
Xiao Wu Meow felt Rose's warm embrace, and something called family affection sprouted in his heart.
"Happy, grandpa, your chest is too hard, it's not as comfortable as a female biped."
Uh, how to say it, it is an indescribable and enviable answer.
After playing with Xiao Wu Meow for a while, Ross looked at the cat he was holding, and said with a complicated expression: "Woo Meow."
Xiao Wumiao heard Rose calling his name, put down the ball in his hand and looked at Rose and said, "What's wrong with Grandpa."
Ross put Xiao Wumeo on the ground, squatted down and looked at Xiao Wumeo and said, "Do you want to learn swordsmanship from me?"
Torre.d. Ross, when he was young, he was determined to become the world's number one swordsman because of his admiration for the handsome swordsman. Unfortunately, he couldn't hire a famous teacher to teach him without money, but he refused to give up. He practiced sword skills with branches alone on the uninhabited island, and explored by himself, and finally achieved his superb fast sword.
Although he has not become the number one swordsman, he is definitely in the top five. However, as old as Ross this year, he is no longer as energetic as when he was young. His old body no longer supports him in high-intensity battles, and his strength gradually fades away.
So he found a place to hide his name and live a life that is unspotted by the world, but he was unwilling to be mediocre in his heart. He hoped that the sword skills he had practiced throughout his life could be passed on, but he never found a suitable person.
But today he saw hope in Wumiao. Although he didn't know if Wumiao had that talent, he had a kind of intuition that this child was sent by God to make up for his regrets.
However, he was still a little hesitant, because he knew that after having power, Wu Miao's future would not be limited to this small island, but a wider sea. When he thought of this, he had just recognized it, so he didn't know which day he would leave in the future, Ross was just a little reluctant to let it go.
Xiao Wumeow tilted her head: "Sword technique? What's the use of?"
Ross smiled and said, "Haha, swordsmanship is the method and technique of using swords. Only by constantly honing oneself can one become a swordsman, and becoming a swordsman can one have the ability to protect oneself in this world."
Xiao Wu Meowed Cat's claws were put to her mouth and said in confusion: "Skill, Sword Master? Is that very powerful?"
Ross said proudly: "Of course it's amazing. That's my dream when I was young, although my dream has been realized for decades."
After thinking about it, Xiao Wumiao said in a childish but very firm voice: "Is Grandpa's dream? Well, I do!"
Ross said seriously: "Really, you have to think about Xiao Wu Meow, practice is very hard."
Woo meow and said, "Hehe, what's the matter? Don't underestimate me too much."
Ross was so excited when he heard this. He kissed and hugged Xiao Wumeo and raised it high, which made Xiao Wumeo and laughed.
Morning
In the open space outside the wooden house, Xiao Wumiao, who turned into an elf boy, held a wooden sword wrapped in thick iron wire in his right hand, constantly doing several basic sword movements such as stabbing, chopping, sniffing, hanging, picking, pointing, collapse, and intercepting. After practicing one hand, he started practicing the other hand.
The reason why I have to practice both hands when practicing one-handed sword is mainly because Ross is afraid that one day of Wu Meow will throw away an arm just in case. After all, even the man who is the Four Emperors doesn't know why he lost an arm, so he has to be careful.
"Hurry faster, use some strength on your hands, meow!"
"yes!"
"Hey! Ha!"
Practice sword skills in the morning and start exercising your body in the afternoon. After all, if you don’t have a strong body, even if you have superb skills, it will be useless.
All afternoon, Xiao Wumiao and Ross ran around the edge of the island. What surprised Ross was that Wumiao's body was unexpectedly good, and he did not stop even if he had reached the limit.
Now Xiao Wumiao feels that her condition is a bit strange. She clearly feels that her body can no longer hold on, but she always feels that everything around her is helping her.
The water vapor in the earth and the air is helping myself recover my physical strength bit by bit and repair my tired body. The warm sun and breeze are making me run faster and more energetic, as if I have become the darling of the world.
Finally, in the evening, Xiao Wumiao was so tired that she could no longer run. She leaned against a tree and gasped in big mouthfuls, sweat dripped from her handsome face like strings of pearls.
He felt that his legs were no longer his.
Ross saw Xiao Wu Meow stop, walked over and said with a smile, "Haha, Xiao Wu Meow is tired. Go back and rest first. Your performance today has made me admire you, hahahaha."
Xiao Wumeow panted and said, "Grandpa, I really can't walk anymore. You can carry me back."
Ross smiled and said, "Okay, you become a cat and I will take you back."
Xiao Wumiao nodded. Just as he was about to have a cat, he suddenly felt a suction force coming from his hand pressed on the big tree, and a pure life energy penetrated into his body. He left the tree in surprise, and the life energy disappeared.
With curious mood, Xiao Wumiao put his hand on the big tree again, thinking to myself, "Suck, suck for me", and saw that the tree shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye. It stopped until it turned into a sapling as thick as a wrist.
At the same time, the life energy coming from the tree was constantly repairing his tired and exhausted body. After the energy of the tree was exhausted, Xiao Wumiao also felt that his body had recovered, and the feeling of exhaustion disappeared, replaced by the infinite vitality brought by a healthy body.
The feeling just now was a bit strange. If the energy I felt when running was that nature treated Xiao Wu Meow as a child to help him, then this vitality force turned into Xiao Wu Meow's child. This feeling was very wonderful.
Ross saw a big tree suddenly turned into a small sapling next to him. The feeling was so exciting. He asked unsurely:
"Xiao Wu Meow, did you do this?"
"Yeah! It's the ability I just discovered!" Xiao Wumiao looked like a new toy showing off in front of parents. "I just discovered that I could absorb the life force of a big tree, turn it into a seed or even a seed, and then those life force can be restored or healed my body. I just don't know if anything else can be absorbed. Grandpa, I'm so awesome!"
Ross smiled as he looked at Xiao Wumao's "quickly praising me", happy that Xiao Wumao had such convenient ability, and even more happy that he had such a cute grandson.
"Haha, Xiao Wumiao is the best. This ability is really amazing!"
"Hehe, it's no big deal."
"Then let's continue practicing!"
"Okay, no, don't, grandpa, I'm so tired."
"Oh? Didn't you say you just replied?"
"Me, that, hum! Grandpa is the worst!"
Looking at his eldest grandson who was running alone like anger, Rose's mouth curled upwards. He had lived on the island for more than ten years and had never been so happy with these two days.
Please give me some advice, Torre d. Woo Meow.
