Reaper's system is a bit weird

Chapter 79 Stretch

the first time?
Madaramu froze for a moment, but Duan Mu didn't give him time to question.

Standing on the same spot, Duan Mu's gloomy aura became more and more intense, but compared to the original pure gloom, Duan Mu holding a wooden knife gave this gloom an unspeakable weirdness.

In the next second, Duan Mu suddenly took a step forward, and the figure flashed and disappeared.

Instant step!

Madarame's face darkened, and with a flip of his wrist, the wooden knife held vertically in front of him suddenly cut horizontally.

The wooden knife cuts through the air, and the powerful spiritual pressure contained in the wooden knife instantly shatters the air in contact with the surface of the blade, giving people the illusion that the blade is twisted.

The wooden knife hit Duan Mu's body accurately, and the feeling that there was nothing in his hand made Madarame immediately realize that the knife had missed.

He was about to draw his knife and retreat.

Suddenly, a bright color appeared below his field of vision.

stab.

The corner of Madara's eyes instantly locked on Duan Mu who used his short body to dodge and attack from below his side.

This is the first time! ?

A corner of Madarame felt weird, but he didn't think much about it. With a flick of his wrist, amidst the crisp sound of air crackling, the wooden knife brought up a vague afterimage, and met the bright color with incomparable precision.

Bang!
The tips of the two wooden knives collided with incomparable precision, and the 'tips' passed by only for a moment. The two stabbed the wooden knives at each other at the same time as if they had made an appointment.

Madarame's left shoulder twisted, and the wooden knife stabbed by Duan Mu almost brushed past his shoulder, while Duan Mu on the opposite side, at the moment when the blow missed, turned around in a blink of an eye, and disappeared from Madarame's vision again.

Such a quick step.

There was a flash of light in the corner of Madarame's eyes, and Duan Mu's Shunpo was extremely proficient, even better than many vice-captains he had seen, which made him doubt whether the other party was a resident of Liuhun Street.

Because the villains who joined Goutei Team [-] directly from Ruhun Street basically have a common problem, that is, they are only good at weapons and unarmed combat, that is, the so-called chopping technique and white fighting, and they are not particularly good at Shunpo and Kido. Good at, including the corner of Madarame.

However, in such a thing as fighting, the faster side does not necessarily win.

Madarame's footsteps slipped from a corner, and when he turned sideways, he turned the wooden knife in his hand and stabbed behind him with a backhand.

Failed again!

The sense of danger struck again, and it was the same stab.

but……

Compared with the previous knife, it is faster, more accurate, and... more cumbersome.

Three consecutive stabs!

Due to the high speed, these three combo strikes appeared almost simultaneously, piercing Madarame's knee, waist and neck respectively.

It really wasn't an illusion.

A corner of Madaramu suddenly believed Duan Mu's words, because this guy's chopping technique was becoming stronger at an appalling speed, and every time the two wooden knives met, the inexplicable strangeness would decrease a bit!
This discovery made Madarame's pupils dilate, not only because of the shock, but more because of the excitement and excitement brought about by the fighting spirit in his heart! !
clap clap~
With a flick of the wooden knife in his hand, he hit it accurately, the corner of Madarame was actually backhanded, and just by feeling, he received the tricky three consecutive stabs with the wooden knife in his hand with incomparable precision.

This scene made Duan Mu's eyes flash with surprise.

But he didn't stay in a daze, but launched the next round of offensive without stopping.

As mentioned earlier, although he has never stopped practicing the chopping technique, this is the first time he has used the chopping technique in actual combat.

This feeling of being cut under the knife by the opponent in a moment of carelessness makes Duan Mu's nerves almost tense to the extreme, because if a real knife is used... the previous knife, in the case of only using the chopping technique to meet the enemy , he may have been cut in half.

There is nothing wrong with my own thoughts.

The corner of Duan Mu's mouth twitched, and at the moment when the three consecutive stabs were pierced, the knife was handed over to his left hand, and he slashed out brazenly.

The afterimage of the wooden knife flashed across, and the bright bald head at the corner of Madara's eyes came into Duan Mu's eyes in an instant, and the spiritual pressure surged on the wooden knife in his hand, and he slashed down with terrifying power.

Duan Mu's expression remained unchanged, he raised his right hand to support the back of the wooden knife in his left hand with his elbow, and placed it in front of him.

boom!
Amidst the relatively dull impact, Duan Mu only felt a huge force feedback from the blade, making him slide back uncontrollably.

There was a fanatical fighting intent in the corner of Madarame's eyes, and at this moment, it seemed that even the bald head became more dazzling.

next second.

bang bang bang...

A wooden knife seemed to be conscious in his hand, and he cut it at various angles.

In the storm-like slash, Duan Mu could only passively change the angle of the blade's defense, but even so, the tattered black work clothes on his body were still torn by the overflowing sharp edge, revealing the black shirt inside.

Duan Mu wanted to fight back, but from his point of view, there was almost no opening in the corner of Madara in front of him.His chopping technique is simple and simple, but he is very clear about his strengths and weaknesses, and perfectly uses his strengths to protect his weaknesses.

This is the most lacking in the Duanmu chopping technique...

Practical experience!

Compared with it, Duan Mu's chopping technique is very theoretical.

He can clearly see all the moves of Madarame, and can even find a way to crack them from the knowledge of slashing techniques in his mind, but often before he can crack them, Madarame has already used another attack technique to make up for the previous attack. loophole.

Under the continuous cycle, loopholes continue to appear and disappear, so that Duan Mu can only be tired of coping, but can't find a way to solve the current situation.

Back and forth!

This is the real strong man, any strong man, no matter how monotonous his skills are, will not have a fatal weakness.

But Duan Mu's heart was not at all turbulent. He kept using Shunpo to make up for the gap in the chopping technique. Although he was passive, he would be hit because of a moment's hesitation, but he defended against attacks on all vital parts.

With the passage of time, the scope of his defense is gradually expanding.

……

Inside the tavern, villains crowded around the door frames and windows, staring intently at the backyard to fight.

"Boss Duan Mu was beaten so that he could only defend passively?"

"You know what, the duel between masters is not based on who has the most hits, but who falls first. Boss Duan Mu has defended all the key attacks."

"That's a fart, even if it's not a vital part, it won't work if you get beaten too much, right?"

"Yeah, look at how many times Boss Duan Mu's shoulders have been chopped off. Even if it's a wooden knife, the average person's arm is basically useless after being beaten so many times."

"..."

Listening to the discussions in their ears, both Uzuki and Yu Erzhong couldn't help but show nervousness.

"Don't worry too much."

A voice came from behind the two of them, and Uzuki turned his head to look, only to find that Nishijinori, who had been lying dead in the tavern, had come over at some point.

"That bastard is not so easy to defeat." Nishijinori looked at the battle in the backyard, and a strange look flashed in his eyes: "And right now this can't be called a fight."

"Ok?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone couldn't help looking at Nishijinori.

"Is this not a fight?"

Ganjiu looked at the smashed Duan Mu who spat blood from time to time, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Did you get fooled by being hacked?"

"He was right."

Standing outside the tavern, Ayase Chuan bowed and said without turning his head: "This battle is not described as a fight, it is better to say... This is more like a guiding battle. That kid named Duan Mu has been borrowing a corner Knife, come to make yourself more familiar with fighting with knives."

"His own cutting technique is not weak, even stronger than most of our team, but he has no actual combat experience. Every time he attacks, he has to think about the angle of attack and the opponent's response, but his hands His movements are completely based on the idea of ​​the brain, which is the fundamental reason why his chopping technique seems extremely unfamiliar."

"And Yijiao also saw this, and didn't go all out, but gradually increased the power of the attack as the opponent's cutting skills became less unfamiliar."

When Ayasegawa bowed, the corners of Ganjiu's mouth twitched slightly, feeling an inexplicable sense of humor.

Duan Mu has a problem with his brain, so does that bald man also have a problem with his brain?
"Which string of your companion is wrong, to actually help your enemy become stronger?"

Ayase Chuan glanced at Ganju personally, and said with a sneer, "Huh, the one who will be defeated in the corner is Duan Mu who is going all out. When that kid named Duan Mu gets used to actual combat with a knife, then defeating him can be regarded as a victory." an equal battle."

Ayasegawa looked at the battlefield personally. He knew Yijiao very well. If it was only because the opponent used a sword in actual combat for the first time, it was impossible for Yijiao to stimulate the opponent's potential so patiently.

Right now, it is not so much that he is cultivating Duan Mu like an elder, it is better to say...he is looking forward to fighting with Duan Mu when he grows up!

This is not to underestimate the opponent, but to regard the opponent as a real opponent.

Did the corner feel something in him?

Although he has been watching the battle, but did not participate in it, he can only make an analysis from the battle situation.

Since the battle, that kid named Duan Mu has always made him feel an inexplicable stiffness.

But I can't tell where the stiffness comes from.

"So that's the case. I said, why doesn't Boss Duan Mu use his best skills of ghosts and fighting for nothing?" Erzhong Yu said with a dazed look on the side.

"I'm more curious..."

Nishijin Zhizhi's expression was as weird as possible: "When did this pervert learn the chopping technique? I thought he was a pure fan of hand-to-hand combat."

"The ghost way and fighting in vain?"

Ayasegawa was taken aback for a moment, then as if thinking of something, he suddenly turned his head to look at the battlefield.

After staring intently for a while, his pupils suddenly shrank.

The offense and defense in the field continued. Duan Mu held the knife in his left hand to block, and after shaking his right hand slightly to the left, he quickly pressed on the back of the wooden knife to strengthen his defensive ability.

Just now it was...

Almost instantly, Ayasegawa bowed his eyes and landed on the right hand.

It turned out to be the case.

He finally understood where the inexplicable stiffness came from.

Although Yijiao is restraining, Duan Mu is also restraining himself. He restrains himself from using the almost instinctive white strike technique. Every time he blocks an attack, he will instinctively use white strike to counterattack, but the moment he strikes, he is hard Shengsheng retracted his actions.

Although Ayase Chuan is not particularly good at hitting in vain, at least it is possible to substitute. If he was standing in a corner and kept punching just now, his neck and neck would not stop if he didn't notice for a while. Vital organs such as the abdomen are very likely to be attacked.

The reason why Yijiao patiently stimulates the potential of the other party is precisely because he feels the threat brought by the other party.

……

The excitement in Duan Mu's eyes grew stronger.

Of course, it wasn't because he was covered in bruises from being hit by a wooden knife. After all, he didn't shake M excitedly because of the pain...

The reason why he was excited was entirely because of the rapid progress in the chopping technique.

As the battle continued, he only felt that the wooden knife in his hand became more and more handy when he swung it. It felt as if the wooden knife had become a part of his body, no matter the length of the blade or the angle of the swing. become so comfortable.

Duan Mu had two initial goals.

The first goal is free access to Seireitei, and this goal has been achieved after five and a half years.

And the second goal is to get a light hit and activate his Zanpakutō.

Although this goal has not been achieved, it does not prevent him from practicing Zhanjutsu, lest he will not be able to use Zanpakuto in battle when he gets it.

In fact, the moment he saw the corner of Madarame, he already had the idea of ​​using it as a training partner for his chopping technique.

It's not that there are people in Goutei Thirteen Team who are stronger than Ikaku Madarame, but they are all at the captain level without exception. Duan Mu is very likely to be defeated in an instant when fighting with them, and he will not gain any growth at all.

Among the vice-captains at the same level, regardless of Zanpakuto ability, purely in terms of actual combat, Madarame can be said to be one of the strongest among all the vice-captains, even one of the most powerful. 'The two words are not impossible.

As far as Duan Mu knows, among the current and future vice-captains of the Guarding Thirteen Team, several of them learned the chopping technique from him.

In the case that there is not much difference in spiritual pressure, the corner of Madarame is undoubtedly the most suitable training partner for Duan Mu, which can make Duan Mu quickly familiar with actual combat with weapons.

"Hey!"

A voice came from the corner of Madarame.

bang~~
The wooden knife lay in front of him, he subconsciously blocked the blow, Duan Mu's pupils shrank slightly, and he felt that the wooden knife in his hand became extremely heavy.

"I've made you perfect, now isn't it..." Madarame pressed down on the wooden knife a little bit, and it was placed on the side of Duan Mu's neck abruptly, and the shiny forehead was almost pressed against Duan Mu's forehead. Word by word: "Is it your turn to fulfill me?"

kaka~~
There was a crisp sound, and following the sound, I saw dense cracks appeared on the wooden knife covered with a layer of spiritual pressure in Duan Mu's hand, like glass, as if it would burst open in the next second.

Broken?

Duan Mu frowned slightly. He could be sure that the layer of spiritual pressure covering the surface of the wooden knife did not collapse, but the wooden knife under the protection of the spiritual pressure was shattered.

Ignoring the Reiatsu defense and attacking the wooden sword itself?

The Reiatsu defense on the wooden knife is the same as the way Duan Mu uses Reiatsu to strengthen the body defense, that is to say... If the wooden knife is replaced by Duan Mu, Madarame can also attack Duan Mu himself through the Reiatsu defense.

Duan Mu removed the spiritual pressure covered on the wooden knife, and the moment the spiritual pressure was lost, the wooden knife was directly turned into pieces.

Losing the last barrier, the wooden knife in Madarame's corner slashed towards Duan Mu's neck.

On the blade, the spiritual pressure skyrocketed.

It is more violent than any previous knife, even if it is a wooden knife, if it hits, it is enough to cut off Duan Mu's neck.

however……

Just when the wooden knife was about to touch Duan Musha, a trace of electric arc appeared out of thin air.

next second.

The low-pitched thunder changed from small to large, and the endless electric arc spread out at an extremely fast speed, causing Madarame's pupil to shrink, and he subconsciously wanted to draw his knife and retreat.

But before he could make a move, he held the blade of the wooden knife with one hand.

Five fingers together.

Bang!
The spiritual pressure defense disintegrated in an instant, and the indestructible wooden knife was shattered into pieces in the blink of an eye.

There was only a blur in the corner of Madara's eyes, and Duan Mu in front of him suddenly turned into a flash of thunder, and disappeared from his vision amidst the roar.

But it didn't attack. Instead, it seemed to be waiting for something, and even the thunder dissipated.

Madarame's face was calm, but his heart was awe-inspiring.

The moment the thunder light appeared, a warning sign suddenly appeared in his heart, and the feeling of extreme danger stimulated the hairs on his whole body to stand on end.

The attack didn't come, and Madarame wasn't surprised. Instead, he chuckled and stretched out his hand.

"attend to personally."

In the tavern, Ayasegawa Kyoko seemed to have already prepared, and almost at the same time as the words fell, he threw the Zanpakuto in his hand to the corner of Madarame.

The moment Madarame held the Zanpakuto, the deafening thunder sounded again, just like the ringing of bells in the arena, and endless thunder appeared in front of Madarame.

The light of thunder was reflected in his pupils, and the corner of Madarame instinctively blocked Zanpakutō in front of him.

An indescribable force came from the blade, causing the corner of Madarame to turn into a straight black shadow like a kicked ball and hit the wall.

Boom!
The huge impact caused the wall to explode directly.

Duan Mu stood at the corner of Madara's eyes, with lightning flashing all over his body, and the fighting spirit in those eyes became more and more intense.

- instant coax!
After crashing into the wall, Madarame slid back a dozen meters before stopping. Looking at the trembling hands holding the knife, his face couldn't help but twitched.

This power...

It must be too strong, right?
What is going on in that state?ghost?
Forget it, take care of him! !
"Let me introduce myself, I am the 3rd seat of the Saraki team - the corner of Madarame!"

Madarame grinned, Zanpakudao came out of its sheath, the hilt connected to the scabbard, the aura around him shot up into the sky, and the blade and scabbard were immediately enveloped by a burst of light.

"Extend it—Ghost Lantern Ball!"
