The Ninth Spirit of Ships... Shell Spirit... Sword Spirit?!

  The originally worn-out and heavily damaged broken sword suddenly burst out with unmatched sword energy, magnificent and bright, making Shen Bao immediately think of the word "Sword Immortal".

  Then...the "Sword Immortal" appeared.

  "Who is it? Who has come to inherit my sword!" In mid-air, the sword energy condensed into a human figure. A middle-aged uncle with a pipe in his mouth, disheveled hair, and a worn-out face, if not for the exquisite silk clothes he was wearing, would probably be mistaken for a beggar.

  "Really? How is it always this scene?! Who are you again?" Shén Bǎo asked with wide eyes, but at the same time, he had already convinced himself, and the words "ship spirit", "shell spirit", and "sword spirit" flashed quickly in his heart.

  Yes, since there are ship spirits and shell spirits, why aren't there sword spirits?!

  "Huh? Is it you, who will inherit my sword, my will, and my wishes?" The sword spirit answered ambiguously, floated around Shangguan Wan'er with a swoop, turned several circles, with an appraising gaze as if sizing up the successor.

  "Not bad, indeed! It has already reached the realm of internal circulation. Hmm, if this aura is fully converted into sword energy, I can exert 80% of my sword technique's power!" The Sword Spirit responded irrelevantly, continuing to mutter to itself.

  Xinbao was ignored...

  "Hey, hey, hey! You sword spirit, who said I wanted to inherit your sword? I'm just holding it for a look. " Shen Bao was somewhat annoyed by the self-righteous sword spirit. If he hadn't reluctantly seen that the sword spirit looked very much like Akane Tsunemori - his favorite anime character from his past life - he would have thrown the sword into the divine lamp long ago.

  "What! You don't want to inherit my sword intent, this is the sword that can make you an unparalleled master in an instant! And I'm not a sword spirit, but a human soul mixed with sword intent and obsession, attached to this sword. Call me Sword Soul - Shang." Sword Soul Shang finally spoke to Shen Bao.

  But then Shen Bao heard Jian Hun's words and shook his head, refusing to say: "Three years of knife, ten years of sword, fists and feet must be a hundred years of work. My skills are all in my fists and feet, I don't want to learn any sword techniques at all. And it's not something that belongs to me, even if it can temporarily become a shortcut to becoming a top master, it will eventually be a burden that constrains me when I reach the highest peak!"

  "Not bad! Not bad! You have a good sense of it, Fishy Kid!" Xianbao's theory was quite impressive, and Jianhun couldn't help but appreciate it even more. "To be honest, I never intended to let the sword intent attach itself to the successor at all times. As you said, creating someone like that would only result in a pseudo-expert, without their own understanding, relying solely on others' comprehension is not enough to achieve one's own success. Kid, you really have a good sense of it, become my successor and I will make you the world's top swordsman!"

  Shen Bao would not tell Jian Hun, of course, because of the Mother Nest Fruit's reason, the mother body and child body can completely achieve consciousness infusion. Of course, he had long understood that other people's experiences and consciousness are not his own, and what achieves his own is still his own practice.

  Otherwise, he would have mastered the Dragon Horse's sword technique long ago and become a master swordsman. Other people's things can only be used as reference, although consciousness infusion can fully display each person's epiphany and feeling, but true growth must come from one's own efforts. In fact, it is precisely because of this that so far, only Shenhao has grasped the subtlety of Gang Qi, while others are still stuck in the realm of life returning.

  "If you want to build a swordsman, I can recommend someone. This guy's Dragon Sword is ridiculously strong, you can totally make him your successor!" Shino shrugged and recommended Ryoma to Jin Soul.

  But the sword soul shook its head and said, "Not suitable, not suitable. A formed swordsman has already had his own unique sword intent, if I were to forge him, it would necessarily conflict with his original dragon sword intent, which would be even more troublesome. What I want is someone who has some foundation in sword techniques but lacks sword intent, an excellent successor like that would be perfect. You are a very good candidate!"

  Shen Bao shook his head resolutely again: "To be honest with you, I won't become the successor of this sword. A person can only specialize in one thing, and that's already good enough. Moreover, your sword seems to contain a large amount of Hailuo Stone, and I'm a Fruit Ability user. If it weren't for my robust physique, I'd probably be lying on the ground weakly by now!"

  "You're actually a Ability User, and you've even picked up this sword!" The Sword Spirit looked very surprised after hearing what Sheng Bao said. "Do you know that the sword in your hand, known as the Fruit End Blade, was made with the essence of the Sea Lou Stone? Once its sword energy is unleashed, it will weaken any Fruit Ability User within a hundred miles by three levels! If they're cut even once, the sword energy will enter their body and render them powerless. And yet you can still hold onto it?"

  Seeing Jianhun's mouth agape, pointing at himself with a look of having seen a monster. It was truly an accomplishment that made Shen Bao feel proud, to have shocked someone who had dominated the world a hundred years ago.

  He shrugged, pretending to be nonchalant, and said in a tone that seemed to blame the Sword Spirit for being overly cautious: "What's the big deal? As long as I circulate my aura and cover myself with a thin layer of it on my palm, I can avoid the sea's aura to the greatest extent. In fact, if I cover my entire body with aura, I can even go play in the ocean!"

  "Monster!" Upon hearing Shen Bao's words, Jian Hun finally spoke out the feelings that had been pent up in his heart.
