Chapter 113: Big Knife and Bloody Allen
After leaving the elite camp, Vic went straight back to the beach house, where he had buried all the rare metals before. Now he was going to officially forge the sword, so he had to bring all the materials with him.
Vic dug out the metal materials that had been buried before and rushed to the weapons workshop with all the materials. In addition to Caster blue gold and Yongshan black gold, there were seven or eight other rare metals.
"There are still not enough special metals. If I had one more, I would definitely be able to create a supreme sword. But now I can only try my best and rely on my luck!"
After arriving at the workshop, Vic found the master craftsman introduced by Andrew. This master craftsman was called Allen. He was the person in charge of the sword forging area and also the master craftsman with the best skills. Many swords of the senior naval officers were made by him.
"Master Allen, I can forge a knife myself. You just need to find me a separate workbench!" Vic said to the short old man.
"How can that be possible? How much skill do you have as a youngster? Don't waste so much good material. Let me do it!"
Allen, the wrinkled old man, was excited to see the Custer Blue Gold and Yongshan Black Gold in Vic's bag.
This is a rare material and a legendary existence in the forging world. Alan has only seen it once.
That was when he was an apprentice 35 years ago, when someone brought a sword to his master for forging. He never saw it again after that.
But there was no Custer blue gold at that time, only Yongshan black gold and one other special metal.
At that time, he had always imagined that he would be able to use such good materials to make weapons. However, he still hadn't encountered such a thing even after he had grown old.
Just when he thought he was going to turn this wish into his last wish, they suddenly appeared. How could he miss them!
"I really know how to forge swords. Look, this is what I forged!"
Vic was a little helpless, pointing at the blood on his waist and said, the old man is a little old, Vic was afraid that if he spoke too loudly he would be sent to death!
But the old man kept pestering him and refused to let him come alone. Vic could see the burning light in Alan's eyes. This might be a kind of obsession of a craftsman, who always wanted to leave something behind during his lifetime.
Alan looked at the blood on Vic's waist and remembered that this was the knife he had evaluated at that time. He had praised the forger of the knife and thought it was an old master. He didn't expect it to be the kid in front of him.
"It's you? Impossible, absolutely impossible! Without thirty years of experience in sword forging, it is absolutely impossible to forge a sword of this level with such simple materials. Are you kidding me?"
Alan looked at Vic in shock. He could hardly believe it.
If this knife was really made by the boy in front of him, then who is he? What are his decades of skills worth? Has he lived in vain?
He is so old but still not as good as such a young man. He wants to jump into the furnace in front and burn his body. What is the meaning of living?
"I really called this. If you don't believe me, I'll call you right now and show you!"
Vic really didn't have any temper with this old man. He couldn't hit him or scold him.
"Okay, you can only use these precious materials in small quantities!"
"With Yongshan Black Gold here, the materials won't be wasted, don't worry!"
Vic was speechless. These are all my things, you are meddling too much!
"makes sense!"
……
A month passed quietly during Vic's blacksmithing. Vic made four weapons, three knives and one sword.
Among them, there are a knife and a sword which can be regarded as trial works, but they have also reached the level of a big sharp knife, after all, the materials are not ordinary.
When Vic was making his first knife, old man Allen had already put his chin on the ground, making a big hole. He was too lazy to pick it up because it would fall off again anyway.
The old man just stared at Vic as he worked on the iron. Vic performed those legendary techniques effortlessly without losing any control.
He believed it. He believed that there really were such geniuses in this world. His worldview was shattered and he wanted to leave the scene in disgrace.
Finally Vic pulled Allen back and said he could help out on the side. Allen readily agreed, and light appeared in his eyes again.
Vic ended up making two knives of his own, using more material and of much better quality than the other two weapons.
When the knife was completed, two whirlwinds were generated from the blade and blew towards the entire forge. Everyone in the forge was startled by the wind. They could hardly hold the big hammers in their hands and felt cold in their hearts!
"Oh, what a pity, it was just a little bit short, two supreme sharp swords! How could it be just a little bit short?" The old man beat his chest and stamped his feet, his face full of regret.
"There's nothing to regret. I was mentally prepared before coming here. This is within my expectations. There will be more opportunities in the future!"
Vic grabbed the handle of the big knife and turned it over left and right. There was a smile on his face, showing his satisfaction with the two knives.
Vic was indeed very satisfied. The moment the sword was completed, he felt its power. The big sword was already at the level of Qiu Shui. As long as he spent more time to cultivate it with his domineering aura, it would sooner or later become as powerful as the Dragon-Slaying Black Sword Qiu Shui.
"You have a chance, but what about me, an old man? How long can I live? I just feel unwilling to give up!" The old man was still feeling very disappointed.
"How about I name one of the knives after you?" Vic looked at old Allen with a smile on his face.
"real!!!"
When the old man heard what Vic said, his body trembled and tears welled up in his eyes.
This is a supreme honor. Gold like Yongshan Black Gold and Custer Blue Gold are named after people and can be passed down for hundreds of years.
As long as this sword is not destroyed, it can be passed down. If it meets a powerful owner, he can bring this sword to the altar, just like the national treasure of Wano Country, the black sword Shusui.
"Of course, do you agree? It's just this one chance!" Vic looked at old Allen with a smile.
"Of course... I agree. This sword with the white beast guard will be called Alan!" Alan looked excited and flushed, as if he had done something unspeakable.
"Okay, this one will be called Allen, and the other one will be called Bloody, to commemorate its predecessor. Let's decide it!" Vic made the final decision, and the two knives finally had their own names.
"Old man Allen, just wait for this knife to become famous all over the world. You should read the newspaper often, hahaha!" Vic laughed and left the workshop with all the weapons.
Vic had two knives on his waist and was walking contentedly on the way back to the beach. The other knife and sword were carried on Vic's back.
The sword was prepared for Rebecca. Rebecca was used to the original long sword, so the length and width of the blade of this sword were exactly the same as the previous one, and the overall structure was the same.
But the difference was apparent when the blade was pulled out; it was blue, exactly the color Rebecca liked, but it wasn't as translucent and deep as Caster's blue gold.
Vic's two knives are of the same style. The entire knife shape is that of a Tang horizontal knife, with a straight blade without any curvature, and the edge of the blade has flame-burned blade patterns. The guard to the end of the handle is in the shape of a dragon, with the guard being the dragon's head, biting the blade in its mouth, and the end of the handle being the dragon's tail.
The two swords are like two dragons with different colors, one is white and the other is black. The white dragon's sword is called Allen and the black dragon's sword is called Xue Ku.
Vic is very satisfied with these two knives, which are in line with his aesthetics and his Taoism. He will stick to this style in the future, and the level of the knives has reached the pinnacle of large and sharp knives.
Covered with Haki, he is no longer afraid of any weapon. Even if Kaido hits him with a stick, it will not be able to stop him. At most, the back of the blade will hit his chest and then fly away.
That would happen to people with weak arms. As for Vic, he would keep holding the knife to block and fly out, which would provide much greater cushioning.
When flying out, you can use the Moon Step to slow down, but it doesn't do much damage, but the domineering aura attached to the mace will cause some damage.
After Vic came to the forest, his Observation Haki sensed two figures on the beach. Rebecca and Wendy were training, mainly Rebecca training Wendy's Observation Haki.
A smile appeared on Vic's lips. He hadn't been back here for a month, and hadn't seen Rebecca and Wendy. He had agreed with them to go into seclusion, so they didn't disturb him.
He was very busy. He had to work as a blacksmith during the day and practice controlling his Haki and Ryuo at night. It could be said that he was never idle for a moment.
However, Vic has made great progress. Ryusakura can be used at any time without any unstable phenomenon.
