Chapter 559

As fast as the wind, as fast as fire, as slow as the forest, as motionless as a mountain!

Reciting the mantra that only Wang can understand, Lorraine danced his double knives on the empty forecastle deck.

The sword is a weapon with a single temperament. It attacks and cuts alone without puncture.

It is not good at dealing with heavy armored knights, but on the sea where iron armor is rarely used, it is deeply trusted by sailors and is far more popular than amphibious omnipotent swords and axes.

The knives that sailors like are half moon machetes in terms of type. They are 60 to 80 cm long, not too thick, one palm wide. They have no obvious defects in weight, attack and defense. They are easy to use, easy to maintain and very friendly to newcomers.

However, the fighting handed down by Drake's family prefers the more difficult Yanyue Dao. The blade length is 100 to 140 cm, the weight is 1.5 to 5 kg, the width is narrower than the half moon Dao, and the radian is straighter than the crescent Dao.

It is said that Francis was holding a knife with both hands. With the fearlessness and cruelty of the outlaws, no one could defeat him in the side battle.

Later, with his increasing growth in combat skills and physique, he began to try to use two big knives. After him, countless Drake continued to improve on his foundation, which formed the Yan Moon double knives danced by Lorraine.

Drake's family knife technique is quite special. People who are not familiar with it do not know the existence of this fighting technique. Most people who are familiar with the Drake family regard this technique as a high attack killing technique because of the knife.

However, the real Yanyue double sabres are defensive. They emphasize the sense of sabre, strive to protect themselves, require high standards of accuracy and restraint anytime, anywhere.

The root of this style is still Francis. The legendary Drake family ancestor started from poverty and broke into a world-renowned career and reputation with a single knife.

When he realized this, he knew he didn't need to work hard, but the style of a ship or a fleet was not so easy to change. He had to stand in the position of the arrow in order to continue to become a legend.

Shuangdao is his compromise after thinking hard.

The blade surface is wider and the range is wider. More importantly, he can continue to create an image of bravery and diligence in front of the crew and opponents, both bravely and cowardly.

After him, the users of double swords in the past dynasties were either noble barons or the same noble Baron's family. Of course, there was no reason to joke about life. Under such needs, Yanyue double swords became more and more refined and paid more and more attention to the protection of knife operators.

For a defensive skill, proficiency is always the core requirement. Every Drake who learns double sabres has to practice the basics from his childhood, such as chopping, rotating, stepping, jumping, as well as the extremely fancy Sabre flowers and leading edges.

These basic and non basic sabres constitute a complete set of Yanyue double sabres. Lorraine is practicing boring almost every day, but most of the exercises will be carried out under the moonlight. Only a few days are adjusted to the morning. At least in Haina's memory, it will never be in the morning, noon or afternoon.

Because noon and afternoon are gentlemen's time, the biological clock does not allow Lorraine to dance knives and guns at these times.

But... It's noon. At 11:43, the Anglo American talks began for 1 hour and 3 minutes. There seems to be no sign of ending.

Haina approached with her mouth closed. Soon Carmen came, and soon Noah stood on the bow deck.

Three pairs of beautiful eyes of different colors exchanged one look, which contained nothing more than worry, which made Haina more sure that Lorraine's action represented abnormality.

Even if it is abnormal, Lorraine's Sabre technique is still so beautiful. It is suitable for moving and static.

As an expert in fighting skills, Haina found long ago that every chop of Yanyue double blades in training will not release all their strength. The blade will always stop at a special time to keep the blade rising and moving forward.

This is to let the operator get used to the virtue of restraint. Never exhaust your strength and leave yourself enough room to respond.

But Lorraine seems to have more force today than usual

Only Haina on the ship can see this subtle difference, and only Haina can see the slight additional fatigue caused by breaking the inherent rhythm.

Lorraine began to turn around and trample on the arc with his feet alternately as the axis. In the first circle, his arms were flat, in the second circle, he recovered slowly, in the third circle, he approached his waist, in the fourth circle, he drew the knife to protect his body, and in the fifth circle, his whole body danced into a retractable gyro until the sixth circle stepped on it and stopped abruptly, leading to huge inertia. He stretched his arms and handed the knife alternately like a lightning flash, and cut horizontally at the limit of his arms.

The sound of tearing came out of the air. Lorraine jumped up and led the knife to chop!

This is the last copy of Yanyue double blades. Haina has seen it countless times and knows that the blade will stop at the last minute, which is a millimetre away from the deck. Who knows

Ding

Long, light and crisp collision sound

Haina looked at the same strange Lorraine in a different place, and a dissatisfied complaint jumped out of her mouth.

"If you can't adjust well, I don't think you are suitable for any battle for the time being."

Lorraine put away his knife with a bitter smile and looked at the slender knife marks on the deck: "there will be no battle for the time being, probably..."

"The battle will come at any time." Haina took out a red velvet and hung it on her finger to rotate slowly. "To deal with you now, only throwing a knife is enough."

"Maybe."

Carmen came up and took the towel from Noah's hand: "minister Hamilton came back just now and asked Katrina to recall the Adams. There are five minutes to catch the ship."

Lorraine frowned. "Hamilton is out? Is the meeting over?"

"I don't know." Carmen shook his head helplessly. "The minister didn't say anything, but there's no doubt that his face is ugly."

"It may be the first time for Americans to see their weakness and weakness so clearly. It's normal for them to look hard." Lorraine wiped the sweat on his forehead. "Just like me, I thought I had accumulated enough strength, but I didn't find it until just now. It's 1786..."

No one understood Lorraine.

In 1786, there was still a difference between rich and expensive.

Even if Lorraine has the power to dominate the new world, even if he can control the fate of a second-class power, even if he scares the pirates, the real old power can still play him in the palm.

Frustration? Humiliation? Or powerlessness?

To be exact, it's probably a sense of crisis.

For the first time in his life, he really saw the supreme authority of Baron Tavistock, touched the secular world at the top of this era for the first time, felt his smallness for the first time, and trembled from his heart.

Haina seemed to hear the shudder in the depths of her soul. She suddenly stretched out her hand and held Lorraine in her arms in front of Carmen and Noah.

"Don't be afraid, no matter who it is, I can kill it for you..."

Lorraine closed her eyes and felt the softness and fragrance of Haina. She whispered, "don't worry, it's not fear, it's just a new starting point."

"Then go on with you, go on."

"I know."

Haina's hand loosened, Lorraine got up straight, passed the dull Carmen and the ostrich possessed Noah, and saw the tired Washington and his entourage at the other end of the board.

Lorraine greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. President, you summoned the Adams. I guess you're going to terminate this employment."

"This is an unforgettable journey. America and I have benefited a lot, Drake." Washington called Lorin simply [Drake] for the first time. "I heard you don't get along well with your brother?"

"It's not a bad time. I think it's more appropriate to say it's not adjustable."

"Personal feud?"

"There is no hatred for selfish desires."

Washington smiled. "You are very different from your brother, but you are as honest as your brother."

"I will take this evaluation as a compliment."

"It's really a compliment." Washington patted Lorraine on the shoulder. "It's a disgrace to America, Drake. Your brother wants to be with his brother. Even God can't deny that hope."

"I see." Lorraine had long guessed the development and was not surprised. "So smooth, Mr. President."

"Thank you."

The American team stepped down from the nipton and Washington stopped at the moment of passing by.

"Drake, if you still have a chance to go to Boston, remember that Alexander will wait for you there for a week. You can find him at the Solomon chamber of Commerce in Houwan. If you don't have a chance to go to Boston... Before July 14, someone will go to Miami to find you. Please wait for him. This is the request of the future president of the United States."

Lorraine's eyes lit up: "it seems that you have gained more than I thought... Mr. President, investing in America may be the most correct decision I have made since I started business."

"I will make it your most correct decision!"

"That... Would be great."
