The secret of shadow flow!
Even Qingdeng, who had experienced hundreds of battles, could not help but feel his whole body tense because he was facing a giant of such size for the first time.
"Oishi Shenying Flow"
"Teaching the Normal School of Martial Arts"
"Oshijin"
"I'm on it!"
The space inside and outside the dojo was dominated by a powerful shout.
Oishi Jin galloped forward like a raging wave! He quickly swung the long sword in his hand!
As expected of a tall and magnificent man, he flew over a distance of 5 meters in just 2 steps!
Qingdeng felt as if there was a terrifying giant beast in front of him, pressing over him with the force of stirring up seas and rivers.
In an instant, a slash that filled the entire field of vision was approaching in an arc.
Qingdeng was not timid, he mustered up his energy to shake off the pressure on his shoulders, stepped firmly on his feet, and before Dashi Jin's bamboo sword had accelerated to its maximum speed, he struck with a fierce force.
Snapped!!
Waves of air swept across all directions, and the sleeves of both men were blown up and made noise.
The two people in the center of the storm did not change their expressions. They stared at each other through the bamboo swords that were pressed against each other.
The next breath, as if he had been scalded by boiling water, Qingden used the reaction force to take a big step back and open the gap.
He closed his fists for the next punch - he adjusted his posture to the Kasumi-dan configuration with lightning speed, then rushed forward instantly, launching a knight-like charge.
At the same time, Dashi Jin flew up and attacked head on without showing any signs of weakness.
The latter's height and weapon length were both superior, so the former, who had the upper hand, fell behind.
Oishi Jin's long sword stabbed Qingden's waist and abdomen.
Qingden twisted out of the way and crossed the opponent's defensive circle in one fell swoop, slashing at Oishi Jin's chest with his sword.
The attack range is far greater than that of the opponent - this means more room for error and more opportunities to react.
Oishi Jin only lightly took half a step back before moving to the best defensive position, and then raised his sword in front of his chest.
Immediately, there was a "click-click" sound as the bamboo swords collided.
The reason why Oishi Susumu was able to sweep through all the invincible opponents in Edo back then was because of only four things: Oishi's superb figure flow, his body that was the most impressive in the country, his bamboo sword as long as an Odachi, and his extraordinary strength.
According to legend, Oishi Jin often used the method of "repeatedly lifting a boulder half a man's height" to exercise his muscle strength.
Qingdeng does not know whether this rumor is true or false.
However, judging from the current situation, it is an undoubted reality that "the power of a big stone is as powerful as an ox".
He did not use any exquisite force-relieving skills, but simply relied on his arm strength to catch Qingdeng's heavy slash.
Both of them were strong men. They rushed forward due to the situation, and after passing each other, they still rushed forward a few steps without losing momentum.
When the two sides turned around and faced each other again, it was Oishi Jin who took the lead in attacking again.
He raised the tip of the sword, raised the upper part, and slashed with the sword fiercely and powerfully.
Whenever a blow missed, he would raise the upper part again at lightning speed, and then slash again...
The people watching the battle only saw Oishi Jin's bamboo sword being raised and chopped down repeatedly.
In modern Internet terminology, this is the most standard "New Year greeting sword technique".
Facing the overwhelming offensive launched by the opponent, Qingden calmly took a deep breath and faced it calmly.
He moved his body from time to time and dodged around nimbly.
Sometimes he counterattacked fiercely and fended off attacks fiercely.
Whenever there was a head-on confrontation with Oishi, Qingden would try his best to deliver the most powerful slash.
He planned to rely on the reaction force to numb the opponent's wrists, in order to find a weakness that could be exploited.
However, no matter how much effort he exerted, Oishi Jin remained as if nothing had happened. Not only did his expression remain unchanged, but his arms remained steady and strong.
The fierce attack and defense between the two sides lasted for about 8 minutes.
During this period, Oishi Jin swung hundreds of swords - none of them hit Qingdeng.
Perhaps because he realized that "such a move can't do anything to Niou", Oishi suddenly changed his attack method.
I saw him fly back quickly, keeping a safe distance, then lowered the sword, changed the upper part to blue eyes, relaxed his shoulders, and his two arms seemed to fall to the ground.
After realizing that Oishi Jin would use a new move, Qingdeng held his breath, concentrated, and waited for the opponent to attack.
Although Qingteng was fully mentally prepared, the attack speed that Oishi Jin showed next still surprised him.
In the blink of an eye, the sword tip, which was as small as a bird's eye because it was ten steps away, suddenly enlarged within his field of vision!
The oncoming stab seemed to be the best annotation for words such as "cruel" and "ferocious", causing Qingdeng's eyes to hallucinate - what was stabbing him was not a bamboo sword, but a big gun!
Oishi Kamikage-ryu is a brand-new school created by Oishi Susumu by integrating the Shinin-ryu swordsmanship and Oshima-ryu spearmanship that he had learned since childhood.
In other words, the swordsmanship used by Oishi Jin is the product of the fusion of swordsmanship and spearmanship.
Oishi Jin's stab contains the technique and destructive power of spear skills.
Before the tip of the sword in front of him reached, Qingdeng's skin already felt a slight pain - this was because the wind pressure caused by the thrust was blowing on his body.
Such a momentum left no doubt that if the thorn had become strong this time, it would have definitely knocked Qingdeng flying, causing him to hit the wall a few meters behind him.
Soon after, Oishi Jin's bamboo sword penetrated Qingdeng's body!
However, only half an instant later, "Qingdeng's body" became blurry, transparent, and then dissipated in the air.
It turned out that just before the opponent's stabbing attack was about to hit him, Qingdeng swung to the left and dodged in time but dangerously.
Oishi Jin did not show negative emotions because of the failed move, as if he had expected that he would not succeed so easily.
He quickly and smoothly retracted the bamboo sword he thrust out, aimed, and thrust out, all in one movement.
Qingdeng escaped again.
Then Oishi Jin withdrew his bamboo sword again, and then thrust it out again.
He was like a machine that only followed the program faithfully, stabbing the sword in his palm repeatedly and ruthlessly.
After the "New Year Sword Technique" just now, Qingdeng encountered even greater pressure.
Compared to slashing that requires an arc, stabbing in a straight line undoubtedly has a superior attack speed.
Between two points, the line segment is the shortest - this is the truth that will not change even if the world is turned upside down.
This is also one of the reasons why the spear is known as the "King of 100 Weapons" and the most powerful move in the major swordsmanship schools is often the most important thrust.
The key point of spearmanship is to make good use of your feet and waist.
When using a spear, the waist must follow the person's feet, the arms should follow the waist, and the wrist should follow the arm. In this way, the gun can follow the wrist, advance and retreat quickly, and be capable of both attack and defense.
In order to hold the bamboo sword in his hand, Dashi spread his legs, stepped down from his horse stance, and lowered his waist. His whole figure looked like an indestructible fortress.
Qingdeng did not take an active defensive position, but moved in a circle, easily dodging the sword edge while constantly moving his body to the right.
I saw that his figure was light and flexible, like music, sometimes fast and sometimes slow; like the shadow of the moon, sometimes disappearing and appearing, as if he was floating freely on the vast sea.
Oishi Jin's offensive is getting stronger and stronger, and his huge body seems to contain inexhaustible power.
At this moment, Qingdeng suddenly changed his posture, holding his sword slightly diagonally in front of the big stone, facing sideways.
At the same time, Dashi thrust out a new blow.
No one else noticed the difference - only the male Tan Seiichiro and Eda Kiyone, who were sitting in the chair, frowned at the same time.
"……pretty."
Male Tan Seiichiro whispered softly.
In an instant, Oishi Jin's bamboo sword was only a stone's throw away from Qingdeng... This time, Qingdeng did not dodge.
He moved to the right, avoiding the front of the thrust, and slashed diagonally - target: Oishi Jin's sword blade!
Oishi Jin's stabbing speed is extremely fast, and he can complete a "contraction" with just a snap of his fingers.
If you want to intercept his sword in mid-air, extraordinary eyesight, reaction speed, muscle strength, and swordsmanship skills are all indispensable.
The "window period" left for Qingdeng was only less than half a second.
However, despite this, he still made bold moves.
The sword edge drew a semicircle in mid-air, and then... it hit the opponent's sword blade accurately!
For thrusting, it can collide head-on and offset a considerable amount of force, but it is quite powerless against attacks from the side.
As expected, Oishi Jin's bamboo sword was bounced away. At the same moment, Qingden took advantage of the situation and rushed forward, approaching Oishi Jin in the blink of an eye.
It was obvious that up until just now, Qingden had been suppressed and beaten, with only the ability to parry but no ability to fight back.
As a result, in just an instant, the situation was reversed.
Except for Seiichiro Tanani and Kiyone Soda, everyone who was watching the battle was shocked.
To say who was most surprised by this result, it was Oishi Jin.
Obviously, the current situation does not allow him to be shocked here.
Qingdeng's forward steps hid the power of counterattack.
When he stepped into the best attack range, he immediately raised his sword above his head and slashed the opponent's shoulder without hesitation.
Dashi Jin, who had no time to immerse himself in the emotion of surprise, hurriedly stepped back and took back his bamboo sword, holding it in front of his chest.
With a "snap" sound, he finally managed to block Qingdeng's slash, and the two bamboo swords were twisted together.
Qingdeng lightly twisted his right wrist, and the sword in his palm slid away from a strange angle, diagonally striking Dashi Jin's face.
Dashi Jin used the movements of a yoga artist, leaning back sharply, pushing his head as far back as possible, and the blade of the bamboo sword passed over the tip of his nose, leaving a red mark.
The two of them immediately hit each other, and the dazzling sword shadows were dazzling.
The place where the two were fighting first moved to the left, and then moved to the left again.
Qingdeng's offensive was always fierce and showed no sign of weakening.
Anyone with eyes can see that Qingden's sudden approach and subsequent series of fierce attacks made Oishi Jin exhausted and embarrassed.
However, he is one of the strongest swordsmen in Edo.
Even though Qingdeng's offensive seemed to move above the nine heavens, he still managed to parry it one by one with his extremely rich combat experience and unparalleled physical strength.
Finally, he seized a moment's opportunity, jumped back two steps, and got rid of the fight.
Tick...tick...tick...tick...
A few drops of sweat dripped down Dashi Jin's wrist and onto the ground.
Although his breathing was not rapid, it was obviously much heavier and his nostrils dilated to the limit.
On the other hand, Qingdeng’s breathing is still long and powerful.
The two sides were facing each other at a distance of about 8 steps.
At this moment, Qingdeng suddenly said:
"...Mr. Oishi, stop hiding it."
As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes and stared straight at his opponent with a gaze as sharp as a sword.
"It's about time you let me experience it, isn't it? Your secret - Katatetsu!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.
For a time, there was a lot of discussion.
"Katate suddenly...? I remember this is..."
"Well, that's right, Katatezu...the secret of Oishi Shenkage-ryu!"
"The great swordsman Shimada Toranosuke was knocked unconscious, and the eyeballs of Naganuma Musouemon of Bunzen Clan were shot out..."
…
"Katate" - In Japanese, this means "one hand".
The so-called "One-hand thrust" literally translates to "one-handed thrust".
There once was a great swordsman named "Shimada Toranosuke", who was as famous as Taniseiichiro and died more than ten years ago.
This person had competed twice with the young and energetic Oishi Jin at that time, and the results were one loss and one draw.
There is nothing to describe in detail about the flat scene.
The losing match was quite interesting - Shimada Toranosuke was knocked unconscious directly.
And the move that stunned him was Oishi Susumu's strongest move, the secret of Oishi Shenkage Ryu: "Katate Burst"!
As far as form is concerned, Oishi Susumu's "Katate Tashi" is very simple and unpretentious: starting with Qingyan, using his left arm to launch a thrust with one hand - no more.
However, it was this seemingly ordinary move that made countless warriors change their minds after hearing the news. They racked their brains and still could not come up with a way to deal with it.
There are two quite famous anecdotes about Oishi Susumu's "Katate Su".
First, there was once a swordsman named "Naganuma Musouemon" from Bunzen Domain who challenged Oishi Susumu.
When the fierce battle was in full swing, Oishi Susumu used the "Katate Toki", and the tip of the sword hit Naganuma Musouemon's face, directly piercing his mask and popping out his eyeballs!
According to onlookers' memories, Naganuma Musouemon's eyeballs flew out directly from the cracked mask...
That's not the most shocking thing.
The most shocking thing is that Naganuma Musouemon’s mask is made of iron!
In other words, Oishi Jin stabbed the iron plate with his bamboo sword!
Secondly, Chiba Shu, the founder of Beichen Ittōryu, designed a special type of bamboo sword to deal with Oishi Susumu's "Katate Tatsu".
He replaced the tang of the bamboo sword with the lid of a four-dougan vat, a large tank that can hold 72 liters of water.
The lid of a four-cup bottle is about 53cm in diameter, which is basically a shield.
Replacing the tang of the bamboo sword with this damn thing... it's just a shame. Just assuming a mid-range stance can block most of the enemy's attacks.
In other words, Chiba Shusaku designed a new "sword and shield in one" weapon, and finally managed to withstand Oishi Susumu's "Katate Strike".
As strong as Chiba Shusaku, he doesn't hesitate to play rough... From various deeds, it is not difficult to see that Oishi Susumu's "Katate Uprising" must not be taken lightly!
Qingden had heard about Oishi Jin's famous stunt for a long time.
Since the war started, he has been waiting for the opponent to use this move.
"Let me see it quickly."
Qingdeng spoke again.
"Mr. Oishi, you should be very clear even without my reminder, right? If you don't reveal your secret right now, you won't have the chance to use it in a while."
"..."
Dashi Jin remained silent.
It doesn't matter.
After all... for a swordsman, the sword is the most powerful language compared to dry words!
I saw Oishi exhaling a breath of turbid air, then lowering his body's center of gravity, leaning out his left shoulder, tilting the tip of the sword, and turning into a blue-eyed posture.
Suddenly, the whole place was silent.
Seeing Oishi Jin accepting Qingdeng's "invitation", everyone present could not help but hold their breath.
Qingden blinked and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It would be too rude not to respond with moves of the same level. Mr. Oishi, in response... please also see my secrets!"
After saying that, he raised the tip of his sword - also in the blue-eyes configuration!
When Dashi Jin saw this, a look that seemed to be a smile but not a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Tu Tashi... Do you want to face Tu Tashi with me?"
Qingden smiles.
"Head-on-head-on-this is my favorite way of fighting."
"In that case...let's take action!"
There is no long-term accumulation of energy and no long-term confrontation.
Dashi Jin directly released the majestic power hidden in the sword body!
The secret of the Oishi Shenying style: Katatetsu!
At the same time, Qingdeng also launched his offensive!
The secret of nature's inner flow·Ping Qingyan's three stages of suddenness!
The two sword tips thrust out indiscriminately, and immediately collided heavily in the air in the next moment!
Swords cutting each other, this kind of scene has been seen many times.
But the collision of sword tips... this scene is really rare.
At the same moment when the two sword tips collided together, a surging "momentum" like a tsunami spurted out from the two people's bodies, and collided with the sword tips in the air!
