American comics: I gradually replicate everything

"Monkeys, pandas, you guys!..."

Seeing that neither of them took his accusations seriously, Master Raccoon's lips twitched, and he clenched his fist as he turned to Master Oogway.

He was not reconciled.

He was really unwilling to accept it.

The Furious Five, his five disciples, are in the distance.

Which one of them didn't train hard from a young age, even breaking their bones in the process? Which one of them didn't have exceptional talent and hard work, one in a million?

But Master Turtle chose Vancan.

Van Can is one thing, his talent is indeed so good it's almost uncanny.

But now, even a large radish that Van Can just casually picks from the roadside can be groomed as the next Dragon Warrior.

Why couldn't his five disciples do it?

"Master...I..."

Master Raccoon gritted his teeth, wanting to shout.

But he was facing Master Oogway, a senior he had respected his entire life. In front of his disciple, he couldn't yell and shout like a spoiled child.

He stood there, his lips moved a few times, but in the end he didn't say anything.

However, both Master Oogway and VanCleef understood what he meant.

This is a master standing up for his disciples.

While Master Shifu was strict and rigid before meeting Po and didn't know how to teach according to aptitude, his love for his disciple was absolutely genuine.

It's not his five disciples' turn to be here, nor is it his five disciples' turn to be here—it does seem very unfair.

Van Can didn't speak at this point, nor should he have.

Master Turtle sighed softly.

"Master, forcing someone into a position that doesn't belong to them is not helping them, it's harming them."

We've both seen far too many examples like this.

Master Raccoon remained silent.

"Becoming the Dragon Warrior brings many honors and titles, but the crises to be solved and the responsibilities to be shouldered are even greater."

You should know this better than anyone else.

"Master, you need to learn to trust others."

Master Oogway looked at him with a gentle gaze.

"but……"

Master Raccoon's lips moved.

He wanted to say, how would we know they couldn't do it if we didn't try and let his disciples try?

Just like the Dragon twenty years ago, and Tigress twenty years later.

Master Raccoon is too obsessed with this matter.

Van Can shook his head inwardly.

Master Turtle sighed softly, slowly turned his head, and looked at the distant valley.

Clouds swirl around the mountainside, and sunlight filters through the gaps in the clouds, like golden pillars standing between heaven and earth.

"Master, my time is running out."

The raccoon master, who was about to speak, suddenly froze.

These words struck the hearts of everyone on the cliff like a heavy stone.

"master."

Master Raccoon's eyes suddenly turned red.

He wasn't unaware of this.

"You have to believe me, you have to believe Vancan."

Trust Vancan as much as you trust me.

"After I left, Van Can became the Dragon Warrior."

When talking about his death, Master Oogway continued calmly, as if he were talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

He needs your help and your trust.

You will jointly manage the Jade Emperor Palace with him, and you will teach him like an elder until he can serve as a model of martial arts masters for the world.

Master Raccoon felt as if something was blocking his throat.

"No, you can't leave... I can't handle this alone."

No, no, I can't accept that.

When?

When are you leaving?

Master Turtle didn't answer; he just looked at the wind in the distance.

The Furious Five were overwhelmed with sorrow.

Even the usually mischievous Abao quieted down, and for some reason, his nose felt a little sore.

But then Van Can spoke up, his calm voice carrying a hint of congratulatory laughter, as if they weren't discussing Master Oogway's impending death.

"Master Oogway, you're leaving now."

Before you leave, aren't you going to leave me, the new Dragon Warrior, something behind?

For example, could you teach me some of your unique skills before you leave?

Or could you give me a couple of pointers?

"Vancan, what are you saying!"

Master Raccoon's eyes were still red when he suddenly turned his head.

"Do you know that Master Oogway hasn't used his fists for over a decade!"

Every crisis that the Jade Emperor Palace has faced has been resolved by me and the Five Heroes of the Furious family. Do you know why?

Although turtles are known for their long lifespan, Master Turtle's lifespan has far surpassed the limits that any turtle or any other living creature in the world should have.

He maintained his life through extraordinary skill and cultivation, reaching a state of perfect harmony and perfection.

But perfect harmony and flawlessness are not immortality; they merely postpone the end point, which will eventually be reached.

"Because—because Master Oogway's remaining energy is no longer enough to sustain him in another attack!"

He stared at Vancan, his chest heaving violently.

"You want Master Oogway to teach you kung fu?"

Do you want him to rush you to die?

"Vanken..."

Ah Bao was also tugging at Fan Ken's sleeve.

For Van Can to say such a thing at this moment is extremely disrespectful to Master Oogway, a kung fu master.

A gust of wind blew, and peach blossoms fell to the ground.

But Van Can's expression didn't change at all.

He remained seated under the peach tree, a faint smile playing on his lips, watching Master Turtle.

The old man and the young man stared at each other.

The turtle laughed.

"Master, there's no need to get so agitated."

Everyone has to die eventually.

He spoke slowly.

"Early or late."

What difference does it make whether it's a step earlier or a step later?

The peach blossoms fall today, fall tomorrow, and will eventually fall anyway.

As long as the flowers that were supposed to bloom before the rain falls, none will be missing.

He looked up at the peach blossoms covering the tree above him.

Sunlight filtered through the petals, casting a pinkish glow on his aged face.

"I've seen all the flowers that were meant to bloom in my life," Master Turtle said. "And my last regret has been made up for by Van Can."

Master Raccoon opened his mouth, already understanding what Master Turtle meant.

He wanted to stop him, to tell him he couldn't, to tell him he'd die if he did that.

Master Turtle slowly stood up.

The movements were slow, like water flowing, like flowers falling.

He stood in an open space in front of the peach tree, facing the valley and with his back to everyone.

The setting sun cast long shadows on the ground covered with fallen petals.

"Before I leave, I'll give you a set of punches."

Master Oogway's voice came from ahead, clear and steady.

"This set of boxing techniques is called Tai Chi."

It took me three hundred years to understand its principles, and another hundred years to grasp its true meaning.

"Today, I will pass on both the techniques and the principles to you."

How much you get depends on your own fate.

Master Raccoon's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Tai Chi!"

Of course he knows this set of boxing techniques.

This is a unique skill created by Master Oogway in his later years; it is extremely profound and mysterious.

No one knows whether Master Oogway reached the state of oneness with the universe after comprehending this set of boxing techniques, or whether he first reached that supreme state and then used it to create this set of boxing techniques.

But one thing is certain—this set of boxing techniques is extremely powerful, yet almost no one has ever witnessed its power.

Because in his later years, Master Oogway had no reason to take action against anyone or anything, and in the end, he needed to preserve his strength.

Today, he's actually going to personally demonstrate this unique skill!

Van Kent's eyes lit up.

"They're here!"
