I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan - Chapter 670
The latest website: Bang! boom!
The left and right guards slashed Mount Huashan with a single strike and slammed towards Ogata, but because of Ogata’s timely dodge, his Naginata only slashed to the empty roof.
With the sound of “Boom”, the place that was hit immediately collapsed into a big hole as if it had been hit by a shell.
After evading left and right guard’s slash with a delicate movement, Ogata wanted to rush over to counter him, but suddenly heard a sour “squeak” from his feet. yah” crackling sound.
Before he had time to look down at his feet, Xu Fang heard a “click” sound, his body’s center of gravity was instantly unbalanced, and his entire body only fell downward.
It turned out that the roof on which he and Yoemon stood had collapsed.
The slash that Left and Right guard had just blasted a large hole in the roof completely unbalanced the structure of the wooden roof, which was not that strong at all.
The roof was cracked and shattered around the big hole.
Not only did Ogata fall, but the left and right guards also fell down because they couldn’t dodge, and fell into the house under their feet.
Although both Ogata and Yoemon were not expecting the shattering of the roof, such an accident was far from causing them to be in a hurry.
As soon as the two of them fell, they immediately adjusted their postures so that they could land smoothly.
Left and right guards fell first.
So naturally he was the first to fall back to the ground.
Left and right guards landed first – this gave him a head start.
As soon as his feet fell back to the ground, he impatiently waved the Naginata in his hand and slashed at Ogata.
And Ogata just fell back to the ground when he split his Naginata.
The expression on Ogata’s face turned cold in an instant.
He immediately judged——the speed of falling back to the ground, he was half a step behind the left and right guards, and it was too late to use the stepping steps to avoid the left and right guards’ attack.
Since it’s too late to flash, let’s face it head-on!
Ogata took a deep breath, clenched the two knives in his hands, and placed the left-handed Wakizashi and the right-handed knives into a cross, blocking him in front of him.
clang–! !
Clanging that makes you feel like your eardrums are about to be torn apart.
The Ogata swords of guard left and right collided with Ogata’s double swords.
The strong wind pressure escaped from the point where the two weapons met, blowing away most of the dust caused by the broken roof.
Ogata now only feels a terrible pain in his arms.
The blade-back of the two swords without self is the only sword skill that Ogata has reached the highest level, “Grandmaster-level”, other than Gen’s Breath.
Under the blessing of “No-Self Realm”, Ogata’s Basara has been improved to the realm of “magical skills”.
Just now, when he was trying to pick up the attack from the left and right guards, Ouhan used the blade to remove most of the power contained in the large naginata sword.
But even so, after the blade in his hand met the Ogata sword of the guards on the left and right, the force that was transmitted back to his arms along the sword was still so strong that Ogata’s expression changed slightly.
Seeing Ogata in front of him who had a way to take a blow from him, Emmon’s brows were raised, and a bit of surprise appeared on his face.
Keng!
Ogata’s arms exerted force and pushed forward, setting aside the Nagato of the guards on the left and right.
The room was too narrow, and fighting with the left and right guards in the house was too unfavorable for Ogata, so after the left and right guard’s Naginata was set aside, Ogata immediately jumped out of the house.
While jumping to the street outside the house, Ogata lowered his eyes and glanced at the knife in his right hand.
Just now, he mainly used his right-handed katana to smash the slashes of the left and right guards head-on.
The part where the knife hit with the Naginata now has a huge gap.
——If only Da Shitian and Da Zizai were there…
This was the first time that Ogata had hoped so strongly tonight that both of his sabers could be in his hand.
The reason why Ogata had been trying his best to avoid confrontation with him and try not to pick up his sword when he was fighting with the left and right guards just now was mainly because Ogata didn’t have a good sword in hand.
At this time, the Wakizashi in his hand, which he had touched from Yuhachiro’s body before, and the knife he bought from Ishikawa, although they are all high-quality knives, are still far inferior to Da Shitian and Da Zizai in terms of quality. .
Ogata reckoned that if he used the two swords he had at hand to collide with the left and right guards head-on, they might shatter within a few touches.
After Ogata jumped onto the street outside the house, the left and right guards immediately chased after him, jumping out of the house like a tiger out of its cage.
…
…
off the block –
“The sound of the fighting hasn’t stopped…” The commander of the 6th Division said solemnly, “Isn’t the winner yet…”
“The opponent is that Shura after all.” The commander of the 2nd Division said lightly, “Even if it is Lord Yoemon, he will definitely not be able to take him down easily.”
“Would you like to send someone in to check the situation or help Yoemon-sama?” the 8th Fan commander asked.
“No.” The Commander of the 2nd Division said without hesitation, “In such a terrain, sending someone in hastily would not only be of no help to Yoemon-sama, but also a disservice.”
“Continue to wait patiently.”
Commander of the 6th Division: “…I actually don’t understand…why do we have to spend so much effort on that Ogata Yasushi?”
“Isn’t our goal to overthrow the Edo shogunate and rebuild the Toyotomi regime?”
“In that case, there should be no reason for us to be enemies with Ogata Yoshiki, right?”
“… Kill Ogata Yoshiki at all costs – this is an order from Lord Toyotomi himself.” The commander of the 2nd Division said, “Since this is an order issued by Lord Toyotomi personally, then we can do it. Yes, you don’t need to worry about so many whys.”
…
…
The battle between Ogata and Yoemon was switched from the roof to the street.
Although the location of the battlefield has changed, the intensity of the battle has not changed.
The two sides launched a stormy offense and defense. The fierceness of the battle made the moment of relaxation make one more fatal wound on his body, which was enough to declare the victory or defeat.
Compared with the roof, the wider street naturally made it easier for Ogata to use his steps to evade the attack of the left and right guards.
The battlefield was switched to the street, and the terrain of the street was more favorable for Ogata, but it was unfavorable for the left and right guards.
Because there are too many houses around, it is not conducive to the height and arm length, and the left and right guards swing the sword with a nearly 2-meter-long large naginata sword as a weapon.
However, this small obstacle did not have much impact on Yoemon, who possessed astonishing supernatural powers.
“Drink!”
The guards turned left and right, using the centrifugal force of the body to swing the Naginata in his hand like a windmill.
Ogata, who jumped back in time, only let the tip of the Naginata swipe across his chest, ripping off the fabric at the front of his shirt.
Bang! Bang! Bang! bang…
The Naginata, which struck Ogata in a perfect arc, didn’t hit Ogata, but it hit the houses on both sides of the street.
The houses struck by the blade of the naginata were like delicate flowers struck by lightning from the sky.
The houses here are all made of wood, and they are basically old and dilapidated. How can they stop the Naginata sword, which is made of steel, which is cut out by the powerful left and right guards?
The violent demolition of the house at the left and right of the guard reminded Ogata of the kind of excavator in the previous life that was specially used to demolish the house with a big hammer.
Ogata wanted to launch a counterattack immediately, but left and right guards launched a new round of attacks.
This time, he used a stab.
Left and right guards turned the naginata in their hands, aimed the tip of the knife at Ogata, and launched a stab at Ogata like a rainstorm of pear blossoms, pulling out the afterimages.
Ogata wanted to try to lift his foot and step on the tip of his Naginata when Yoemon stabbed him out, but he automatically dismissed the idea as soon as he came up with it.
His strength is now compared to the left and right guards, but it is only in the middle. If you lift your foot and step on the tip of his Naginata sword, you should not be able to step on it.
Therefore, Ogata could only go back and hide.
Ogata ducked back, and guards left and right followed closely.
In just 5 short breaths, the left and right guards stabbed nearly 20 times.
Ogata, who kept dodging back, suddenly felt his back hit something.
Turning his head and looking back – it turned out to be a public toilet.
In the Edo period, in addition to those big families, whether it was samurai or commoners, several or a dozen families shared a public toilet.
The public toilets in this era are basically dry toilets, and the area is designed to be very small. Only one person can go to the toilet at a time. The shape of each public toilet is like the public telephone booth in the previous life, and the internal space can only accommodate 2 or 3 People stand inside.
Seeing that Ogata’s back was blocked by a public toilet, a trace of joy rushed to the cheeks of the left and right guards.
He hurriedly stabbed his feet together, exerted all his strength, and stabbed Ogata’s chest with his Naginata.
Although the rear was blocked by an obstacle, Ogata did not panic.
He also exerted his full strength like the left and right guards, and then did a backflip upwards, rolled over to the roof of the public toilet behind him, and then jumped back with force to jump off the roof of the public toilet.
When Ogata jumped off the roof of the public toilet, the Nagato of the left and right guards finally arrived, stabbed from the place where Ogata was standing just now, and stabbed the public toilet in the opposite direction.
He missed Ogata again, and all the attacks so far had failed, which caused a slight haze to appear between the left and right guards.
In order to vent the suffocation in his heart, the left and right guards shouted, and pushed the Naginata in his hand upwards, and the public toilet was blown away.
Ogata, who jumped to the back of the public toilet, made a beautiful arc in mid-air and landed firmly on a wooden bridge.
Six meters behind the public toilet is a rushing river that traverses this poor neighborhood.
The river is about 4 meters wide, the water is turbid, and it is difficult to see what the bottom of the river looks like.
On this river, there is a wooden bridge.
Although the bridge looks a little crude at first glance, it is unexpectedly strong, and it also has handrails and other things carefully built.
The fly in the ointment of this bridge is probably that the bridge deck is narrower, and at most 2 people can walk side by side.
Ogata, who jumped back from the roof of the public toilet, landed in the middle of the wooden bridge.
After the left and right guards smashed the public toilet, they immediately chased after Ogata with a sword.
The distance between the left and right guard gates is only a few meters.
With the strength of this “giant”, with such a small distance, I am afraid that it only takes the blink of an eye to be able to close it.
Ogata raised his right hand and wiped the sweat that was dripping down his chin with the back of his right hand, while looking at the left and right guards who were about to kill him again with calm eyes.
——Looks like… that’s the only way to use it.
Just now, when he and Yoemon were fiercely swapping offense and defense, Ogata had been thinking about a way to effectively injure Yoemon.
He and Yoemon are both warriors with both strength and speed, and their every attack and every defense is incomparably swift.
Because of this, although they fought from the roof to the street, and then from the street to the bridge, they fought for more than 30 rounds, but in fact, less than 2 minutes had passed.
In less than 2 minutes, Ogata deeply understood the power and terror of Yoemon.
This is the second time Ogata has faced off against a master who uses the big naginata sword.
The last time I fought against the master of the Naginata sword was when I dealt with the demon monk on Butterfly Island last spring.
In terms of strength, the strong man in front of him doesn’t know how many streets he has thrown away from the demon monk.
In the skill of using the Naginata, the left and right guards are probably a bit inferior to the demon monks. But in terms of strength and speed, Yoemon is far superior to the demon monk.
Even when he was in good condition, Ogata was not as good as Left and Right Guardians when he simply competed for strength and speed.
But if there is the blessing of “the realm of no-self”, then Ogata is confident that he can suppress the left and right guards.
But the problem is – Ogata’s current state is not perfect.
It doesn’t relapse early, it doesn’t relapse later, but the “undead poison” that relapsed tonight made Ogata drag a weak and sick body to fight against the left and right guards.
The current Ogata, even if he has entered the “realm of no-self”, can only barely draw a tie with the left and right guards, and has been unable to gain the upper hand.
Until now, Ogata has not hit the left and right guards.
And the left and right guards have not left even the slightest wound on Ogata’s body.
From a microscopic point of view, the two are now tied.
But from a macro point of view, it is Ogata who is constantly at the disadvantage.
Because time is not on Ogata’s side. The longer the battle dragged on, the worse it would be for Ogata.
He had already fought countless enemies just now, killing more than 100 enemies, and he had already consumed a lot of physical strength.
If they were caught in the quagmire of a war of attrition with Yoemon, the one who would suffer the most would undoubtedly be Ogata, who had already lost a lot of physical strength.
How to defeat Yoemon at the fastest speed?
The first plan that popped into Ogata’s mind was to use Kasumi and Meiran to sneak attack on the left and right guards.
This is the safest and most efficient method.
But the problem is…because it just fell into the canal, both of his pistols got into the water.
Guns of this era are not yet advanced enough to be waterproof. Once the gun has entered the water, professional methods must be used to remove the water stains in the gun before it can be used again.
And the professional delicate work of removing water from a gun… Ogata is not good at…
A-machi is very good at this, so before he reunites with A-machi and asks A-machi to help him make guns and water, Ogata’s two pistols should not be used again.
Although the pistol was not a big help, Ogata still came up with another method that could effectively injure left and right guards.
This method finally took shape in Ogata’s mind when he just jumped off the roof of the public toilet.
Boom! Boom!
Left and right guard’s feet had stepped on the wooden bridge at this time, making a “dong”, “dong” sound.
And at the same moment when the left and right guards stepped on the wooden bridge, Ogata quickly recited in his heart:
——Step up to upgrade at least “Grandmaster level”!
As soon as Ogata’s silent recitation fell, the system sound immediately arrived in Ogata’s mind as expected.
【Ding! Consumes 8 skill points, and the two swordsmanship skills without me are upgraded to “Grandmaster-level” skills]
[Current remaining skill points: 2 points]
[Current personal level: LV40 (3570/6400)]
[Sakakihara Ichito-style level: 14 steps (6355/14000)]
[No-I Second-Knife Flow Level: 13 Stages (4220/16000)]
[Shiraji Ninjutsu Level: 8th Dan (7410/7500)]
[Iga-style forbidden technique level: 3rd stage (740/800)]
Ogata originally had a skill point of 9 points, but he gained a lot of experience points after he made a big fuss in this block just now and sent an unknown number of enemies back to the west.
The personal level is directly raised by 1 level, and 1 skill point is obtained, and the total number of skill points increases to 10 points.
Although the martial arts genres such as Sakakihara’s Ichito-style and Wuwu’s two-sword style have not been upgraded, their experience bars have been increased by a sufficient amount. The distance between Shiranui-style ninjutsu and Iga-style forbidden art is only one step away.
Ogata suddenly felt warm currents rise from the soles of his feet, and then wrapped his legs in layers.
Ogata has officially acquired the third master-level skill after Breath of the Source and Basara!
Since there is no way to take this guy’s sword head-on, let’s rely on his movement to approach his body—this is the method that Ogata just came up with to effectively injure the left and right guards.
A large part of the reason why he has not been able to leave even a little injury on Yoemon’s body so far is because his footsteps are not fast enough.
Every time he got close, Yoemon was ready to dodge or defend.
If that’s the case, then let yourself go faster!
How to make your pace faster and more exquisite in an instant? This question is too easy for Ogata who has accumulated 10 skill points.
When Ogata felt that his legs were wrapped in a warm current, the left and right guards just came to the position where his Naginata could slash Ogata.
Naginata slashed out.
call–!
The sharp blade whistled.
Like a light butterfly, Ogata gently jumped to the side and jumped onto the bridge railing next to him.
The guards on the left and right took the Naginata back, and then sent it forward, stabbing Ogata who was standing on the bridge handrail in a squat-like posture.
If Ogata seems to jump aside again, then the left and right guards will not be surprised, after all, the left and right guards have seen a similar situation countless times just now.
In the face of the Naginata stabbed from the left and right guards, Ogata also dodged as he expected.
But he didn’t dodge sideways.
Instead, it flashed in the direction that left the left and right guards’ mouths wide open in astonishment.
Standing on the bridge handrail, Xu direction jumped forward.
With great precision, he jumped over the tip of the Naginata sword that was stabbed by the left and right guards.
Ogata stretched out his right foot and stepped on the back of the Naginata sword in mid-air with the toe of his right foot. Then, using the back of the sword as the footing point and the force point, he kicked back sharply, pushing his body straight towards the left and right guards. slammed into his arms!
The pupils of the left and right guards shrank suddenly~www.mtlnovel.com~ He subconsciously wanted to withdraw the sword and return to the defense, but it was too late——
laugh!
Between Ogata and the left and right guards, the muffled sound of the blade entering the body finally sounded.
The wakizashi of Ogata’s left hand penetrated the throats of the left and right guards, and the sword of the right hand penetrated the hearts of the left and right guards.
Both swords pierced through the vital points of the left and right guards!
