Nagakura's new eight generals dance with swords to great effect.
Listening to this movement, there is no doubt that if someone accidentally touches someone or is brushed against someone, they will be seriously injured even if they don't die!
Its cutting speed was so fast that the entire space was filled with the afterimage of the blade and the blade light that had no time to dissipate.
At first glance, it looks like a huge "silver net" covering Prajna from all directions.
When others looked at this formation, they most likely wanted two groups to fight, and no one dared to fight against it.
On the other hand, Prajna is like walking on flat ground!
I saw him always wearing a calm smile and moving his steps deftly.
One side is cutting horizontally and vertically.
The other side is dodging left and right.
The nimbleness of Prajna's body and the lightness of his steps are both like flying and dancing.
No matter how Nagakura Shinpachi swung his sword, he could always pass through the gap between the slashes accurately.
If you really can't dodge, just use the sword in your hand and hit Nagakura Shinpachi's blade with the sheath to block his attack.
"Use the sheath to deflect the blade" and "Use the blade to hold the attack" - anyone with a brain knows how big the gap is between the two!
Anyone who has learned a little bit of martial arts can do it by using the blade to catch the blows of others.
You can use the scabbard to block other people's blades... This is not a skill that ordinary people can imitate!
This requires not only superb skills, but also extraordinary courage!
You know, if you accidentally miss, there is no chance to regret it and try again!
In the blink of an eye, Nagakura Shinpachi, who tried his best, had already swung hundreds of swords, but he couldn't even touch a corner of Hannya's clothes.
Hannya didn't even pull out his sword, he just kept Nagakura Shinpachi spinning around like he was walking a dog... The gap in strength between these two people is self-evident.
However, at this moment, Nagakura Shinpachi showed the demeanor that a first-class warrior should have.
He did not become anxious or give up on himself because of the huge gap in strength.
Although Nagakura Shinpachi is a rough and rude man, he is also a rough person with fine points.
Tonight's battle is not to compete with the strong, but to severely inflict heavy damage on the Zunbo Sect! Kill all Miyabe Daizo, Katsura Kogoro and others in one fell swoop!
Before fighting Hannya, Nagakura Shinpachi had already observed his surroundings with the corner of his eye.
Souji versus Katsura Kogoro.
Genzaburo Inoue was busy dealing with the siege of several patriots.
Kondo Isamu concentrated on dealing with Miyabe Daizo and his bodyguards.
Although he was unwilling to do so, Nagakura Shinpachi had to admit: the strange-looking guy in front of him was very strong! So strong that he felt deeply afraid!
Just relying on his strength, joining any battlefield can bring about subversive changes in the battle situation!
Just like an overweight weight, no matter which side of the scale it falls on, it can directly make the entire scale unbalanced!
Therefore, Nagakura Shinpachi quickly made up his mind - no longer hoping to defeat the opponent, but fighting him to the death! Drag him here!
Compared with the overall situation, the outcome of the duel and your own life are of no importance at all!
With this thought in mind, Nagakura Shinpachi adjusted his breath slightly, and then switched his stance to a mid-range position that could be used both offensively and defensively, preparing for a protracted battle with the opponent.
However... Hannya seems to have seen through Nagakura Shinpachi's thoughts.
Nagakura Shinpachi decided to fight a protracted war, and he also changed his tactics accordingly.
He jumped two steps back to widen the gap, then raised his left foot and stood on one foot with his right foot, assuming a "Golden Rooster Independent" posture.
Then, as if he was relaxing his leg muscles, he jumped twice on the spot with his standing right foot, making two soft sounds of "pop" and "pop".
When he jumped for the third time... At this moment, this "golden rooster" no longer jumped in place, but jumped towards Nagakura Shinpachi like a spring!
But in the blink of an eye, he had already approached Nagakura Shinpachi!
Hannya's strange footsteps and his rapid movement caused Nagakura Shinpachi's complexion to change drastically, his pupils to shrink, and he subconsciously put the knife in front of his chest to prepare for defense.
It's a pity... Prajna's attack is one step faster!
This time, Prajna no longer defends, but takes the initiative to take the offensive!
Just like before, Hannya swung the sword with its sheath and made a standard cassock slash, hitting Nagakura Shinpachi's left shoulder impartially.
Although it is a scabbard that will not cause death, the hard scabbard body will not make people feel comfortable!
Nagakura Shinpachi suddenly felt a burning pain in his shoulder, and he couldn't help but wrinkle his face and distort his facial features.
Prajna's attack is not over yet.
He took a half-step forward, controlled the entire space with his feet, adjusted his body position and the direction of the knife in his palm, swung the knife from the lower right to the upper left, and performed Ji Ni Kasaya Slash.
Nagakura Shinpachi tried his best to block, but was still half a beat too late.
Soon enough, Prajna struck out for the third time - he stabbed Nagakura Shinpachi with the bottom of his sheath, hitting him right in the chest.
Nagakura Shinpachi stumbled backwards and almost fell to the ground...
At this point, the positions of both sides are completely reversed.
A person who chops horizontally and vertically and attacks continuously becomes a prajna.
On the other hand, Nagakura Shinpachi...he didn't dodge left and right, but "hurt himself left and wounded right".
In just a few rounds, he was beaten and retreated.
Facing Prajna's fast attack, he didn't even have the strength to parry, let alone fight back.
It is not difficult to imagine that if Prajna drew his sword and attacked, even if Nagakura Shinpachi had 10 lives, it would not be enough to kill him...!
After beating Nagakura Shinpachi back again, Hannya held up the hat on his head, curled his lips, and said in an indifferent tone:
"The third master of the Shinsengumi...is nothing more than that."
As soon as he finished speaking, his back foot seemed to have discovered something and changed into a joking tone:
"Oh, no, no, no, no, no, I was so busy competing with you that I almost forgot about my job..."
After finishing speaking, he turned around abruptly and ran towards the corridor outside the room.
Upon seeing this, Nagakura Shinpachi's face darkened. He didn't care about the pain in his body, gritted his teeth and rushed to catch up.
The reason why he was so nervous was because the place Prajna was running to was the battlefield in the corridor.
And the people fighting there are none other than Souji and Katsura Kogoro!
…
Today, Katsura Kogoro has basically transformed into a politician and rarely draws his sword to fight with others.
However, even so, the "Swordsman Kogoro" who was once famous in Edo still retains his former style!
Shinto Muken-ryu is a school that pursues "power" and "aura".
As the proud disciple of Saito Yakuro, the "Saito of Power", Katsura Kogoro has taken the "strong" characteristics of Shinto Muken-ryu to the extreme!
"Drink ahhhhhh--!"
He gave a sudden drink and stood forward, his momentum like a rainbow! The knife in his palm made a "buzz" sound and slashed diagonally towards the chief executive!
In terms of cutting speed alone, Nagakura Shinpachi, Saito and others are probably not as good as him!
Of course, its cutting speed is fast, but it is not enough to threaten the general secretary.
The light ponytail flickered suddenly - Souji lowered his body, moved lightly, wiped the ground and hid beside Katsura Kogoro.
The next moment, the cold blade emerged from his ribs! Kaga Kiyomitsu roared towards Katsura Kogoro's head!
Although Katsura Kogoro leaned up in time to avoid the fatal blow, a small cut was still made on his forehead by the tip of the knife, and blood dripped out.
Shift, step on, stabilize, turn around and fight again... The two people's rapid steps made the floor thump.
At the moment of the flash of light, the chief executive unexpectedly put the knife to his chest and adopted a defensive posture.
The opponent didn't care about anything, but when he saw that the commander-in-chief didn't attack, he immediately raised his sword over his head and slashed at him.
His fighting style of not only attacking fiercely but attacking whenever he gets the chance is full of the style of Shinto Muken-ryu.
To be continued...
