One Piece: Reborn in Ohara

"Ha--"

After practicing the sword technique ten times, Rob let out a breath of stale air and then took off his clothes. He held the straight sword in his hand, jumped into the sea, and sank toward the bottom as usual. The practice of his ultimate sword technique had already paid off, but there was still a long way to go before he could master it!

Robin was no stranger to this. Ever since she knew that her Oni-chan could hold his breath for hours at the bottom of the sea, and even fight fiercely underwater for nearly two hours, she never worried about him going into the sea.

An hour passed.

Just when Robin was tired from reading and was about to take a break, a news coo flew in the sky. She raised her hand to beckon it down and bought a newspaper from the bird. Robin looked at it curiously and saw a report about Rob in a small section of the newspaper.

Surprised, she exclaimed, "Oni-chan is in the newspaper!"

[The nine-year-old genius swordsmith who forged five Grade swords and two Skillful Grade swords!]

This was a small report. The news was about Rob creating swords. There was also a small frontal photo of Rob, showing his immature but handsome face.

"It's so handsome!" Looking at Rob's photo with a smile, Robin said, "As expected of my Oni-chan! I'll save the newspaper and show it to him later! He is going to become famous across the seas! Hehehe..."

Another half hour passed.

Splash—

Rob's figure flew out of the sea amidst the sound of splashes, and he landed firmly on the green grass on the shore.

Seeing that Rob's training was over, Robin took the newspaper in her hand and walked quickly to his side. "Oni-chan, you're in the newspaper!"

While speaking, Robin showed Rob the small news report about him.

After taking a few glances, Rob was somewhat surprised. "Genius swrodsmith? Interesting! I thought we would be famous for destroying so many pirates when we sailed in West Blue and the Grand Line!"

"I didn't expect that at that time, I didn't have any reputation at all, but instead became famous for forging a few swords?"

As for reputation, Rob didn't try to build it at the beginning. But he didn't deliberately hide himself either. He didn't hide his strength before in the small town of West Blue and on some islands in the Grand Line.

As a result, he was overlooked by the reporters, but now he was published in the newspaper because of making a few good swords. How do you describe this feeling? It's subtle.

Clap--

After a quick look, Rob put away the papers, then put on his trousers and clothes. Looking at Robin, he said, "Let's go! Let's head back! I have adjusted my condition to the best! Tomorrow, I will try to forge the first Great Grade sword of my life!"

Hearing this, Robin nodded obediently, "Yes! Oni-chan~!"

The dancing Robin, like a little butterfly, circled around Rob. The two chatted and walked towards the village's Isshin Dojo. There was a kind of golden boy and jade girl, the feeling of childhood sweethearts!

...

The next day, in the forging workshop:

Rob was shirtless, his face serious, eyes bright, and expression focused. Observing and learning, Koshiro was responsible for pulling the bellows.

"Mr. Koshiro, light the fire!"

Upon hearing Rob, Koshiro looked serious. "Yes! Teacher Rob!"

As the saying goes, those who have mastered it come first. In the art of forging, Rob was much better than Koshiro, even surpassing Kozaburo, who first taught him. So when Rob forged a skillful grade sword, Koshiro called him Teacher Rob. And Rob accepted this title with peace of mind. After all, he was indeed better than Koshiro in forging technique, and even in sword skills, Rob was superior to Koshiro.

Soon, with Koshiro at the helm, Rob began to concentrate on using one of the high-quality iron materials Kozaburo had given him to forge the first top-level weapon in his short forging career!

...

Ten days passed.

On this day, inside the forging workshop:

Rob, smelling of sweat, held a sword that had completed all the processes in his hand. The blade was 115 cm long, the handle 30 cm long, and the blade itself was 85 cm long. It had a wave-like quenching pattern, a hollow pattern sword, and the handle was a uniform purple with a simplified crane pattern on it.

Hum!

Rob held this long sword with calm eyes, his fingers gently caressing the blade. He could fully feel the unreserved sharpness of this sword. It was definitely a rare top weapon in the world!

Next to Rob, Koshiro wiped the sweat from his face, looking at the treasured sword in his hand with admiration.

"What a beautiful sword! Teacher Rob, this sword has undoubtedly reached the quality of a Great Grade blade! As the 'father' of its birth, give it a name!"

Hearing these words, Rob was taken aback, then nodded. "It is indeed possible to give it a name!"

The swords that Rob had made before were all given away or sold by him at will. He had never given a name to the swords he made. Now that he had created a famous sword of the Great Grade level, he could indeed give it a name. This sword would surely become a representative work of his forging career!

"Shiraha!"

Looking at the wavy pattern on the blade and the cold light it emitted, Rob settled on its name.

"The name of this sword is the Meito—Shiraha!"
