My promise to Kuina.
At the point when I was a youngster, I prepared at a dojo in Shimotsuki Village. I once said in Baratie, that, "When I concluded that I would turn into an undetectable fighter, I gave up my life."
Indeed, even as a youngster, I was sreong enough to crush most grown-ups, yet couldn't vanquish Kuina, the Dojo expert's girl. After 2000th fight (and Kuina's 2000th victory) I tested her in private for one more match – with genuine blades. Despite the fact that I improved enormously since the principal coordinate, I actually lost and cried with disappointment, enlightening Kuina regarding my fantasy about turning into the world's most noteworthy fighter. Hearing this, Kuina trusted with me, disclosing to me that she had a similar dream yet realized she would never accomplish it – her dad had revealed to her young ladies would never be genuine blade aces, and that her battling potential would diminish as her body developed. I was irritated by my naysayer mentality despite consistently winning against me, I disclosed to her that one day I would beat her since I was more talented, not on the grounds that she was a young lady. Both of us made a guarantee – which both of us needed to turn into the world's best fighter.
The following day, Kuina endured a lethal tumble down at the dojo's step, much with my indignation and disillusionment. Understanding that she could never get an opportunity to satisfy her fantasy, I took it upon myself, asking my sensei, Koushirou, for her blade, Wado Ichimonji, and I started attempting to build up my particular Santoryu, holding my own two swords in each hand, and Kuina's blade gripped between my teeth.
This guarantee with Kuina is simply the one heading to turn into the best fighter on the planet. I acknowledged to turn into a privateer in light of the fact that our captain Monkey D. Luffy said that he would uphold my fantasy.
