Tokyo Survival from Tamamomae

Chapter 47

He moved slowly, closing the distance between himself and Nakagawa.

But Nakagawa still didn't respond at all, as if he was unmoved by Yusuke's approach.

After getting closer to a certain distance, Yusuke moved his left knee to his right heel, raised the knife to hold it horizontally, and bent his right elbow inward.

After keeping this posture in silence for a second, the next moment, he quickly made a move, raised the knife above his right shoulder, and at the same time moved the handle of the knife with his left hand, stepped out with his right foot, and immediately swung the bamboo knife violently to the lower left and slashed down.

Cassette cut!
However, at the moment when he chopped down the bamboo knife, a bamboo knife suddenly stabbed obliquely from the side of him.

This is Haoren's bamboo knife, as if it matched his attack, Haoren also started attacking at the same time.

only……

This kid, where are you going to stab, didn't you see that I made a downward strike!

In the next second, Xiongjie's expression changed suddenly, because he found that the bamboo knife seemed to want to pass through his lower arm and stab Zhong Chuanzhi's right lower abdomen.

But because of his chopping action, his arm would inevitably sink, and at this time, from the angle of the bamboo knife stabbing, it happened to collide with his sinking arm, causing accidental injury.

In a two-person vs. two-person kendo duel, when the strength gap between the two parties is not particularly large, body skills, timing, and swordsmanship are all secondary, and the most important thing is to pay attention to a coordination.

If you cooperate well, the weak can defeat the strong, but if you don't cooperate well, the strong side will also overturn.

And Yusuke and Haoren have almost never participated in a duel together, not even training.

This is partly due to the fact that the duels in the Kendo club are usually held between members who are not proficient in swordsmanship. Masters like Yusuke and Haoren in the club can't find a matching training opponent in the club.

On the other hand, in the regular competitions of the National College Kendo Competition, there is no duel between two people, so Yusuke has never paid much attention to it.

This directly led to the fact that this was the first time the two cooperated, and they were not familiar with each other.

If there are two opponents, it's better, you can hold one of each other.

But now the opponent is alone, if they attack together, if they don't cooperate, they will be interfered by teammates.

Fortunately, as Yusuke is a master of the [-]th dan of kendo, his reaction is naturally not slow.

The moment he realized something was wrong, he turned his arm hastily, reversed and drew his knife upwards to change his move, avoiding Haoren's stabbing attack.

Snapped--!
It was also when Xiongsuke dodged Haoren's blow and felt a little annoyed in his heart, suddenly there was a sound of bamboo knife clashing from above.

Xiongsuke raised his head and looked up, but found that at some point, Nakagawa Shizuo's bamboo knife was already hanging in front of his chest.

And his bamboo knife was a coincidence, it happened to hold Zhong Chuanlu's bamboo knife.

It seems that he blocked Nakagawa's blow!
Although it was a bit difficult, it was obvious that the opponent had the upper hand in strength, but with the strength of a fifth-level swordsman, and his sword technique itself belonged to the sword technique of opening and closing, he still barely blocked it.

Yusuke: "???"

Yusuke was surprised at the same time, but also quickly realized that cold sweat broke out from his forehead again.

You know, when he attacked before, Zhong Chuanluo didn't move at all until he swung his knife down.

However, in the blink of an eye, her knife had already appeared on his chest.

And his naked eyes didn't catch the opponent's knife movement.

Unexpectedly, Nakagawa's sword can be drawn so fast. Could it be the legendary sword drawing technique (juhe slash)?

But fortunately, if he hadn't suddenly changed his moves in order to avoid Haoren's stabbing, he might have been hit in the chest by Zhong Chuanlu.

With the powerful strength of the opponent's sixth-level swordsman, his fate may not be any better than that of Doma who was knocked into the air before.

so close!

Is it a coincidence?still……

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he suddenly felt the strength in his hand lighten.

It seems that Zhong Chuanluo withdrew her sword and withdrew her strength, and the reason why she withdrew her sword was because...

When he blocked Zhong Chuanlu's attack, followed by Haoren's bamboo knife passed under his arm smoothly.

Because he changed his move halfway, raised his arm, lost Haoren's bamboo knife that was blocking him in front of him, and stabbed straight at Zhongchuan Xiao's lower abdomen.

Naturally, Zhong Chuanluo withdrew his sword to resist Haoren's attack.

slap--!
There was another sound of two bamboo knives clashing.

Zhong Chuanluo's bamboo knife came first, and after withdrawing the first knife, he quickly returned to defense. First, he swung the knife to block Haoren's stabbing attack, then turned from defense to attack, and quickly slashed towards Haoren's shoulder for the second time.

Double cut in the next paragraph!
In the swordsmanship of the series of consecutive cuts, the interval between two cuts is often very short.

Fortunately, the speed of continuous chopping is not as abnormal as that of drawing swords.

With great reluctance, Haoren crossed the bamboo knife, blocking Zhong Chuanluo's continuous chopping.

Although it was barely blocked, the powerful strength of the sixth-level swordsman was still transmitted to Haoren through the blade of the bamboo knife.

He stepped back several steps one after another, and finally his right leg gave way, and he half-kneeled on the ground with one leg, only then reluctantly let go of this force.

Well, very reluctantly!

Don't mention how embarrassing it looks like that!
This scene, but it happened in the blink of an eye, made Yusuke instantly dispel the words after the "still" in his heart.

From Xiongsuke's point of view, he was lucky to block Nakagawa's first strike, while Haoren failed to attack and was counterattacked by a powerful sword shaman. It is not bad to be able to block it.

But in the eyes of outsiders, that is another picture...

"Oh! As expected of the minister, he easily blocked the silver-haired girl's first strike!"

"Before, even the deputy minister and the others didn't survive the opponent's sword, because the opponent's sword was too fast.

I didn't expect the minister to be able to predict the opponent's sword attack, change his moves temporarily, and block in advance. Sure enough, the minister is still strong! "

"That's for sure. The minister is a fifth-level swordsman. Not only is he powerful, he is also very experienced. The opponent is just playing tricks!"

"However, in comparison, Fujiwara-senpai is a bit weak, and he took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent to attack the Minister to rush to attack.

Not only did she not hurt the other party, she was also repelled by the silver-haired woman's sword, and she knelt on the ground on one knee! "

"Yes, yes, although Fujiwara-senpai has good strength, he is still young and inexperienced, so he certainly cannot be compared with the minister!"

Obviously, in the eyes of the onlookers, it was Yusuke who predicted ahead of time and easily blocked the opponent's most powerful first strike.

But Haoren had a great opportunity to attack, but he didn't grasp it, and was repelled by the opponent, kneeling on one knee.

Comparing the two, it is naturally clear at a glance who is the main force in this battle.

Hearing the whispers of the audience, Haoren not only didn't get angry at all, but instead laughed happily. Because of the protective gear, this smile was not noticed by anyone.

In fact, this is exactly what Hao Ren expected.

Predicting the attack, this is the effect of an S-level yin and yang technique "Sky Eye".

Of course, it wasn't that Haoren had learned the S-level Yin-Yang technique, but had temporarily upgraded the original "Spiritual Vision" many times, temporarily becoming "Sky Eye".

As for how to upgrade, that is naturally one of the trump cards!

With the help of his "Sky Eye", it is not impossible for Yusuke, who has a fifth-rank strength, to defeat a sixth-rank swordsman in a simple competition of swordsmanship!

In this way, today's result will become...

The head of the Kendo Department went into battle with injuries, and brought a junior who was holding back, and defeated the sixth-level sword shaman of the Miko organization!

Therefore, the best tool for today's competition... Cough, the protagonist is not him...

Minister Yusuke is the real protagonist!
