Kei knew that this grave must be grave of Kuina, late-daughter of Koushiro-Sensei. "Hello, Kuina-san, Nice to meet you. My name is Genji Keisuke, I have learned swordsmanship under Sensei." said Kei with soft yet tender voice.
Koushiro was smiling a little , with melancholy in his eyes, even though they were closed. Kei didn't know how but, he was able to feel it somehow.
"My daughter Kuina, had a dream, which was impossible to be achieved. Her Dream was to become the World's Strongest Swordsman, even though she was a women." said Koushiro-Sensei with regret and pain.
"If it wasn't for that event, Currently she would have been seen chasing her dream, and some fault was also on my part, Sigh~" said Koushiro-Sensei, while letting his emotions.
"Now, One of her Rival Zoro is pursuing her dream for her sake and his too. You said that you wanted to be world's strongest , does that include Strongest Swordsman too?" asked Koushiro-Sensei, while looking seriously towards Kei.
