One Piece: Burning the Prison Clothes in the Setting Sun, Mihawk is dumbfounded.

But that's relative to before the time travel.

For the world, it may simply be catching up with the normal level.

And Dunn was well aware of this.

Fortunately, the signs of rapid transformation did not disappear, meaning that the body is still getting stronger.

It's very likely due to that Devil Fruit, since the description of the fruit mentions that it will continuously strengthen the body.

As for swordsmanship, he knew very well that he didn't know much about swordsmanship, but his basic slashing and thrusting movements, as well as his honing and training of strength, raised his evaluation to a higher level.

He will then spend the next period of time improving his strength in Frostmoon Village.

Of course, he wouldn't be overly ambitious.

As for physical fitness, it's enough to keep improving it.

He doesn't dare to hope for mastering or awakening the Devil Fruit right now, but his training will not stop.

Therefore, his purpose in coming to Shimotsuki Village was to improve his swordsmanship to the level of cutting through iron and become a true swordsman. As for Haki, he wanted to at least comprehend two types of Haki. As for Conqueror's Haki, he was not sure if he had the aptitude for it.

But the confidence brought by the data panel meant that even without Conqueror's Haki, he was definitely no weaker than anyone else on this sea.

Mastering the dual-color Haki is enough.

As the ship docked, Dunn stepped onto the gunwale and turned to look at the group of people on the deck behind him.

"The employment is over, everyone!"

After saying that, Dunn jumped off the boat and landed on the small dock of Frostmoon Village.

There were a few people on the dock, not many, and they didn't seem to care much about the arrival of a merchant ship, each busy with their own affairs.

Dunn inquired about the location of the dojo and headed straight there.

On the merchant ship, watching Dunn's disappearing figure, a group of people looked at each other in bewilderment.

"What are you looking at? We're not like this gentleman. Hurry up and get ready to purchase some supplies. Also, I'll go see if I can transport some goods."

The captain's shout spurred the crew into action.

……

"Snapped!"

The bamboo sword struck his head, producing a hollow echo.

Zoro, with a large bump on his head, covered his head with both hands, clutching the spot where he had been hit by the bamboo sword, but his face was full of resentment.

"You lost for the 1959th time!"

The girl, around ten years old, gripped the bamboo sword and spoke calmly.

This has happened nearly 2000 times since Zoro entered the dojo, and she's gotten used to it, or rather, numb to it.

"You wait, I will definitely defeat you."

Releasing his hands from his head, Zoro picked up the bamboo sword he had just thrown down, staring intently at Kuina, and said, looking quite spirited.

However, his bruised and swollen face, along with a large bump on his head, made him look rather comical.

So funny, laughter came from the entrance of the Taoist temple.

Then, the laughter drew Zoro's angry glare.

Hearing the laughter, Zoro turned his head and looked at the dojo entrance with a displeased expression. He then saw a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old standing by the door, leaning against the dojo gate and watching the two of them.

The boy was dressed in loose white clothes, his black hair looked a bit long, and his features were very soft and regular, without any sharpness in his appearance. Judging from his face alone, he should be an easy-going person.

However, the smile on his face made Zoro feel that he was being mocked, so he was naturally resentful.

"Who are you?"

Zoro glanced at Dunn standing at the door and asked directly.

"Here to learn swordsmanship."

Upon hearing the question, Dunn stepped in, his gaze sweeping across the dojo's spacious courtyard before finally settling on Kuina and Zoro.

"Learn swordsmanship? Wait a minute, I'll go tell my father!"

Kuina wasn't surprised, since there were quite a few people who came to the dojo to learn swordsmanship, but judging from their appearance, they didn't seem to be locals.

After Kuina left, Zoro walked up to Dunn, tilting his head back and looking at him with an arrogant expression.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Dunn looked down at Zoro in front of him, comparing the green-haired brat in front of him to the Yonko's first mate from Onigashima who had withstood the combined attack of the Four Emperors and slashed the top general, King. He couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

If he had a camera Den Den Mushi, he would definitely have taken a picture of Zoro's current appearance.

This will definitely become a dark chapter in Zoro's history.

"You're still laughing? I'll beat Kuina one day."

Zoro raised his hand to wipe the blood flowing from his nose and said with a defiant look on his face.

Upon hearing this, Dunn shook his head. It was impossible to defeat her, but since Guina was still alive, it wouldn't hurt to save her.

As for whether it will change Zoro's fate, who cares.

"If you want to join the dojo to learn swordsmanship, then I will be your senior brother."

Seeing Dunn deep in thought, Zoro suddenly remembered his fellow disciples and immediately spoke up.

"Since we're all here to learn swordsmanship, naturally whoever is the strongest will be the boss."

Upon hearing this, Dunn shook his head immediately.

"So that's how it is. Does that mean if I defeat Kuina, she'll have to call me 'senior brother'?"

Zoro's eyes widened suddenly as he stared at Dunn in disbelief.

"Impossible! You can never beat me!"

Before Dunn could respond, Guina's voice rang out.

Then, Shimotsuki Koshiro and Kuina came out together, with Kuina looking quite displeased.

"I challenge you!"

Zoro was furious upon hearing this and raised his bamboo sword, pointing it at Kuina.

Kuina, with the bamboo sword pointed at her, glanced at Dunn and her father before walking straight out of the dojo, with Zoro following her.

It seems another swordsmanship contest is about to begin.

"Please excuse my rudeness, my daughter and my disciple just like to joke around."

Shimotsuki Koshiro did not stop Kuina and Zoro's match. Instead, he smiled and said to Dunn, his eyes scanning Dunn as he spoke. When he saw Dunn's eyes, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes behind his glasses.

"It's alright. After all, they are learning swordsmanship. It will only end when there is a clear winner or one side is convinced. These two don't seem to be the type to be easily convinced."

Dunn chuckled and said.

"Your Excellency sees things clearly."

Upon hearing this, Shimotsuki Koshiro nodded slightly, then made an inviting gesture, which Dunn naturally accepted.

After entering a room inside the dojo, Shimotsuki Koushirou knelt down and invited Dunn to sit down. Dunn sat down casually with a relaxed expression, his eyes sizing up Shimotsuki Koushirou.

[Top-tier swordsman (extremely dangerous)]

Shimotsuki Koushirou had a blood-red mark on his head. Recalling the marks on the heads of the pirates and other people he had encountered before, Koushirou was the most dangerous person he had ever met.

"You're not from Shimotsuki Village?"

Koushirou looked at Dunn with suspicion, but he didn't lose his manners and asked.

"Yes, I came here today on a merchant ship. I heard from other places that there is a dojo here that can teach swordsmanship, so I came here."

Dunn nodded slightly and calmly gave his answer.

"Then why do you want to learn swordsmanship?" Koushirou asked again.

"Is it important?"

Dunn raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise.

"I guess so," Koushirou nodded.

His attitude, however, made Dunn ponder. He lowered his head slightly in thought, and after a moment, he raised his head slightly and gave his answer.
