East Blue.

On an unremarkable small island.

A young man and woman were strolling leisurely. The girl wore simple and elegant attire, following closely behind the young man at a slight distance.

Tashigi was observing the island, her pure eyes filled with curiosity. She didn't know why Ian had specifically come to this small island in the East Blue

He had only said they were continuing an unfinished journey

It didn't seem like there was anything special about this place

As they walked, they soon arrived at a place that looked like a graveyard. In this open area, there was a person standing quietly in front of a tomb. When Tashigi saw him, her pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a trace of surprise.

"This person... is not weak"

Earlier, she had released her Observation Haki but hadn't detected this person's presence. Now, upon seeing him, she immediately felt that he was hiding very powerful aura

"Oh, we have visitors."

The man standing in front of the tombstone wore glasses and had a long braid hanging behind him. He seemed to have noticed Ian and Tashigi as well, so he spoke in a gentle tone, but his gaze rested on Tashigi

"This isn't a good place to entertain guests. Why don't you both come to my dojo?"

As he spoke, he slowly turned around. He was none other than Koushirou, Zoro's teacher, who bore a striking resemblance to Tashigi, and the father of Kuina

In his previous life, Ian had been very curious about Koushirou's identity. Just from his various pointers to Zoro, his understanding of swordsmanship was definitely not that of an ordinary swordsman. Moreover, his daughter wielded the Wado Ichimonji.

When Koushirou turned around, his expression was originally gentle, but when he discovered that there were two people behind him, he was immediately surprised

Because, in his earlier perception, there had only been one person behind him. Just like how Tashigi hadn't sensed his presence at all

Without a doubt, when he looked up, he confirmed that the powerful aura he had just sensed belonged to the young woman, while the young man beside her gave off no aura at all, as if he didn't exist, just a phantom

"You are..."

Seeing Ian's appearance, Koushirou was first taken aback, and then seemed to remember something, showing a trace of shock. how could he not know about the huge event where two of the Four Emperors were defeated?

"I didn't expect it to be you. Please forgive my rudeness"

Koushirou took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart, and bowed to Ian. In this world, people were already referring to Ian as a God

Even though he was a master swordsman standing at the top of swordsmanship, facing Ian, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe

"I wonder, what brings you here..."

Koushirou looked at Ian, his tone carrying a hint of unease.

Ian had suddenly come here, and Koushirou didn't know why. Although he wasn't afraid of anything, this was his dojo. Even if he didn't care about his own life, he was very concerned about the lives of his Students
