One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 30
Matsurizawa looked at Yagyu, and hurriedly bowed to salute, which was explained by Ayane in advance.

At this time Yagyu said to Matsurizawa.

"You, Ayane, said that you are now following Ayane to learn the skills of a swordsmith."

Matsurizawa has indeed learned a lot of things from Ayane, but Matsurizawa has not yet learned the craft of swordsmithing.

But before coming here, Ayane had already explained that Matsurizawa was required to explain that he was Ayane's apprentice swordsmith, and that he was the new successor of Ayane's family in the art of knife making.

This is actually caused by Matsurize's identity. Matsurize's identity is unknown. Generally speaking, Songbai Dojo will not recruit such unknown people, even if this is the candidate recommended by Ayane.

However, if this person is a swordsmith, especially a swordsmith inherited from a powerful swordsmith like the Ayane family, even if he is only an apprentice for the time being, Yagyu will be lenient with this status.

Matsurizawa spoke according to Ayane's instructions.

"Returning to Master Liusheng, I am now learning how to forge swords from Xiaoyin. I can barely be regarded as an apprentice swordsmith!"

When Master Liusheng heard this, he really showed a smile on his face. You must know that the Songbai Dojo is a swordsmanship dojo, and people who inherit swordsmiths like Ayane are very welcome to join.

Yagyu said to Matsurizawa.

"Matsu Rizawa, Ayane called you Ozawa, that's what I'll call you, and you're still called the owner, won't you change your name?"

Matsurizawa immediately reacted and said to Yagyu.

"Matsu Rizawa pays homage to Mr. Yagyu."

Yagyu continued talking to Matsurizawa.

"According to Ayane's speculation, you should have survived the shipwreck, and then accidentally broke into the maze forest, and was rescued by Ayane, can you not remember any memories of the past?"

Matsurizawa returned.

"Report to the teacher, I can't remember anything about the past, except for the current name."

At this time, Yagyu uttered a message, confirming Ayane's conjecture.

"A few days ago, another merchant ship that was hit by the rocks floated over the port. No one on board was spared. There was only such a ship that died recently. You may be the person on it."

Apparently, Yagyu has already got some information about Matsurize. Due to the special geographical location of the Shipwreck Port, there are often some shipwrecks floating here, which is also the origin of the name of the Shipwreck Port.

Fortunately, the ship in distress was a merchant ship, otherwise Matsurize's apprenticeship today would not have been so smooth.

Regarding these speculations, Ayane has not talked to Matsurizawa yet, and apparently she does not know about the merchant ship that died recently.

It was the first time Matsurizawa heard about his own background, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Matsurize was thinking, now he really has no way to find his origin, and in this way, no one really knows about his origin.

And Ayane said to Matsurizawa that if you want to restore your memory, it is best to meet someone who is familiar with your past, or go to some places you are familiar with in your past.

The best thing is to have your own relatives to help you recall the past bit by bit.

Matsurize estimated that it would be impossible for him to restore his memory in the future.

After Matsurize finished his apprenticeship, he was dragged out by Ayane in a daze. He was still immersed in the shocking news.

Ayane told Matsurizawa not to think too much, so as not to arouse the pain in the brain again.

Ayane took Matsurizawa to get a set of blue dojo attire and a wooden sword.

Ayane brought Matsurizawa to her residence in the dojo.

The 21-seat disciples like Ayane all have their own small courtyards in the dojo.

If the rest of the dojo disciples wanted to live in the dojo, they would all sleep in Datong bunk, and a dozen of them lived in one room.

It was almost noon, and Ayane went to the cafeteria in the dojo, and brought back two lunches, and ate lunch with Matsurizawa in her own residence in the dojo.

At this moment, Matsurizawa spoke to Ayane.

"Xiaoyin, can you tell me what happened outside Blacksmith Island?"

Ayane knew that Matsurizawa was confused about the sinking merchant ship.

Ayane replied.

"About the outside world, I actually know very little. Shipwreck Port has not been in contact with the outside world due to various reasons. Now the people on the island know a little outside news, which is basically brought in by the Bloody Pirates. news, and only they often contact the outside world.”

Matsurize had no choice but to give up, lowered his head and turned this unexplainable emotion into appetite, and threw himself on the pile of delicious food in front of him.

The food at the Songbai Dojo is not better than the rice cooked by Ayane in terms of taste, but the food here is rich in variety and plentiful.

After lunch, Ayane took Matsurizawa to the street and started the shopping trip.

Not long after, Matsurize and Ayane returned to the Songbai Dojo with two large packages on their backs.

There are mainly various ingredients and seasonings here, and there are not many staple foods to buy. When Ayane was walking on the street, many people from Shipwreck Port came up to chat with Ayane.

They are all people who want Ayane to build a knife for themselves, but after Ayane talked with many people, they did not reach a deal.

This is what Ayane thinks, there is no one who really loves knives, so Ayane would rather not start work.

Ayane's reputation is still very big in Shipwreck Port. It's not that everyone knows how good Ayane's sword making skills are, but because of Ayane's weird rules, they don't know that Ayane only thinks that she is Made by those who truly love knives.

Ayane and Matsurizawa didn't stay at the shipwreck port too long. After saying goodbye to Mr. Yagyu, they left the shipwreck port and went back to Xiaohe village.

In fact, in Songbai Dojo, generally speaking, new disciples will live in the dojo for a few months, this is to lay a good foundation for them.

And because Matsurizawa had Ayane's personal teaching, he also wanted to learn the craft of swordsmith from Ayane, so Mr. Yagyu specially allowed Matsurize to come to the dojo once a month like Ayane now.

Yagyu hoped that after Matsurizawa learned Ayane's skills, he would be able to forge a batch of swords for the dojo without these weird rules of Ayane's.

After all, very few people in the Songbai Dojo have reached the standard of Ayane. Now in the Songbai Dojo, there are very few people who use the sword made by Ayane.

Even Mr. Yagyu, after hearing about Ayane's rules, thought that he might not be able to meet Ayane's standards, so he didn't ask Ayane to make a sword for him.

Ayane led Matsurize out of the exit controlled by the Songbai Dojo, and the two had to detour to the right way to Xiaohe Village, which was very troublesome.
