Chapter 221 Copy Talent: Elephant’s Core +9! [4400]

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Two spears attack at the same time, like two dragons coming out of the cave!

The two long spears, which were more than two meters long, turned into illusory afterimages, resembling black thunder!

In the blink of an eye, the outcome of this unique "stab in the middle" was immediately clear.

In essence, Tojo Shintaro's attack was a false move.

It looked like it was aimed at Qingdeng, but it was actually a spear aimed at Qingdeng.

The two spears were placed together, making a clear and crisp sound that was different from the bamboo sword.

The sound falls and the gun points.

As if they had bounced away, the two of them retracted their spears in no particular order, stepped back, pulled out the joint, and reorganized their posture.

The person who took the lead in launching a new round of offensive was Qing Deng.

This time, he changed his stance.

The classic gun-holding method of "the front hand is like a pipe, the back hand is like a lock, and the handle of the gun is not exposed" is no longer used.

Instead, he directly let go of his right hand and only used half of his left hand to grasp the end of the gun barrel!

Anyone with a little common sense knows that under the influence of leverage, it is extremely difficult to hold the end of the gun barrel steady with half a hand.

However, relatively speaking, this way of holding the gun will expand the attack range of the long gun to the maximum!

As we all know, for Qingdeng, stabilizing the spear has never been a problem.

The talents "Skilled Hands +5", "Nine Bulls and Two Tigers +3", and "Tiger Arm +4" can be activated together!

Qingdeng's five fingers on his left hand were suddenly congested with blood, with veins popping out, and he was clenching the end of the gun barrel like an iron vice.

The heavy wooden gun, more than two meters long and weighing more than ten kilograms, seemed to be welded into his palm, integrating with it and making it flexible and flexible!

Holding the end of the weapon to increase the range of the attack - Qingden has learned this insidious attack method since his duel with the Jinno of the Yi-Repressing Group, and often uses this move to attract Yin people.

Qingdeng stepped out with his left foot, hit the ground hard, stretched out his left shoulder, and stretched his left body to its maximum extent.

Leverage your strength, move your energy, and stab the spear—all in one breath, flowing like clouds and flowing water!

The length of the spear + the length of the arm + the length of the left body... the attack range of Qingden's attack exceeded 3 meters!

Probably because he didn't expect Qingto to do this, Shintaro Tojo's pupils suddenly dilated.

Originally, the distance between them was 7 or 8 steps.

At such a distance, it would be absolutely impossible to stab him using ordinary spear-piercing techniques.

As a result... just because of Qingdeng's action, his entire body was exposed to the tip of his spear!

However, he is indeed a hidden master of marksmanship.

Even at the critical moment, he never panics!

Then he saw him put the spear back to his chest as fast as lightning, swipe it diagonally, and deflected the dangerous stab.

Immediately afterwards, he turned the gun head, and the long gun body drew an arc in mid-air, and swept the gun tail towards Qingdeng's lower body.

Offensive and defensive aliens - this time Qingden is on the defensive.

Qingden glanced briefly at the spear aimed at his lower body.

He neither defended nor retreated, but raised his left foot casually, standing on the dojo like a golden rooster.

While lifting his feet, he made an action like "putting away a fishing rod", retracted the spear that was thrust into the air, and held it upright, pointing the tail of the spear to the ground and the tip of the spear to the sky.

The next moment, Shintaro Tojo's gun head swept across the spot where Aoden's left foot had been standing just now.

Hit nothing but air.

The tip of the gun was only a finger's length away from Qingdeng's raised left foot...a slight difference, but a thousandth difference.

Relying on the spatial perception given by the talent "See Through +4", Qingden saw that the opponent's blow could only hit his left foot.

Therefore, he, an expert in martial arts, boldly failed to defend or retreat, and defeated the opponent's attack with just one move of "lifting his foot."

Soon enough, this "golden chicken" that was independent on the floor jumped towards the opponent with a snap.

With the help of the power and potential energy of jumping, the spear held vertically in his palm fell down like it was falling!

The rapidly approaching gun shadow covered Tojo Shintaro's figure in the blink of an eye.

Shintaro Tojo calmly responded to the enemy, ducking to dodge and firing back with his gun.

One blow, one blow, another blow!

He quickly fired three shots, and the three blasting sounds of "chi", "chi" and "chi" sounded almost at the same time.

Because the attack speed was too fast, for a moment, three spears seemed to appear out of thin air in his palm!

Qingdeng dodged the first two stabs, and then deflected the last one with brute force.

Offense and defense alternate.

You come and I go, without giving in.

I saw two slender black shadows flickering in the dojo.

Sometimes it stabs forward, sometimes it sweeps, sometimes it lifts up, sometimes it cuts downward...

The fierce sound of the spears clashing can make people’s ears ring!

The attack characteristics of the spear make its attack and defense rhythm extremely fast!

Even a mere few seconds is enough for both sides to launch ten rounds of attack and defense!

Describing the battle between the two sides in such detail makes it seem like a long time has passed.

In fact, only more than one minute has passed since Qingdeng changed into the spear.

At this time, as if they had agreed in advance, after a few more rounds of confrontation, the two retreated and faced each other at a distance.

"Whirring whirring……"

"..."

Tojo Shintaro's breathing was slightly rapid.

Qingdeng was doing everything as usual, with no obvious changes in his complexion or breathing rhythm.

After he regained his breath, Shintaro Tojo asked with a surprised look on his face:

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting things to come!

"The skills are good... Mr. Ju, you actually know how to shoot?"

Qingdeng smiled slightly and replied calmly:

"I once secretly learned some gun skills."

Overall, Sanosuke Harada is a very hard-working person.

Whenever he has free time, he will always pick up the spear, or practice alone, or invite companions such as Kondo Isamu and Nagakura Shinpachi to have a fierce martial arts competition.

You can always see him hard at work practicing his gun.

As a result, with the blessing of the talents "Ghost Heart +5" and "Spear Talent" (the spear skill talent is 62 times that of ordinary people), Qingdeng secretly learned a lot of spear skills from him over and over again.

However, Qingdeng still has a lot of room for improvement in his spear skills because he has never received any systematic training.

In the previous "Iga Attack and Defense Battle", his dance technique... was basically relying on brute force, making a few random moves!

Although the enemy-killing effect is impressive, it still has a fly in the ointment.

How to swing a long spear (gun) with less effort?

How to combine one's own strength with Changsha (gun) more effectively?

Qingdeng was completely ignorant of these aspects of knowledge.

As the saying goes, "There is no need to overwhelm the body with too many skills."

There is no harm in mastering a few more martial arts to diversify your attack methods.

Therefore, Qingdeng had planned to seriously learn spearmanship to make up for his shortcomings in this area.

However, Qingdeng had difficulty with who to take as his teacher.

The only person he knew who was proficient in spearmanship was Sanosuke Harada.

The spear art practiced by Harada Sanosuke is the famous Hohoin style spear art. Its main feature is its variety of techniques.

Harada Sanosuke is not very tall, only 1.6 meters.

Although in 19th century Japan, he was so tall that he fully deserved the nickname "Tall Man".

But in the world of the strong, such a height is far from enough

The path to martial arts is full of "survivor bias."

The higher a person is at the top of the martial arts "pyramid", the taller and stronger they are - because those who are short have no chance of becoming strong.

Therefore, apart from anything else, in the Shinsengumi, where there are so many strong players, Harada Sanosuke, who is only 1.6 meters tall, is really mediocre.

His body shape is far from strong.

He is a very typical "skilled shooter" who relies purely on skill to win.

Compared with ordinary people, Qingdeng's biggest advantage is his abnormal physical ability that can be called a human transformation!

If you give up your physical advantage and instead learn a skill-focused spear art like Hohoin-ryu, it would be a waste of resources.

In a nutshell: Qingdeng favors spearmanship that combines both strength and skill!

However, Qingdeng has never met a strong person who is proficient in such spear skills - until today!

Shintaro Tojo's superb and exquisite skills made his eyes light up!

The "powerful and skillful" spear technique that I have longed for is right in front of me!

Not to be missed.

Let’s take advantage of today’s precious opportunity to learn from him... Ah, no, correction! Let’s learn from Shintaro Tojo’s spear skills!

Just like that, on a sudden impulse, Qingdeng gave up his bamboo sword and replaced it with a wooden spear, determined to compete with his opponent with spear skills!

After listening to Qingto's brief answer, Shintaro Tojo grinned:

"Did you learn secretly... You have reached this level just by learning secretly? Your martial arts talent is really unfathomable..."

After a short break, both sides have regrouped.

Tojo Shintaro exhaled a breath of turbid air, and then assumed a strange posture - with his back hand raised, the butt of the gun over his head, and the head of the gun pointed diagonally at the ground - if we use the terminology of Chinese marksmanship to describe it, this is the standard "drip posture".

The advantage of this kind of stance is that you can relax and wait for work, and at the same time, you can switch quickly. You can also quickly switch moves, and the last move comes first.

It is a tricky stance of first waiting for the opponent to make a move, and then defending and counterattacking.

Since he has put on such a posture, it means that he is "inviting" Qingteng to take action!

When Qingdeng saw this, he was unambiguous.

He immediately stepped on his feet and raised the tip of the spear - still the king of spears: "Zhongpingqiang".

In the next moment when his posture was formed, he suddenly took a big step forward, raised the tip of his spear, and aimed at the opponent.

Dongcheng Shintaro's body swayed slightly, and with a flick of the gun barrel, he easily blocked it.

In the next breath, he suddenly changed his posture, from "water drop posture" to "Tai Gong fishing posture" - from a structural point of view, the latter is the opposite of the former.

The back hand is lowered, the front hand is raised, the tail of the gun is pointed diagonally at the ground, and the tip of the gun is pointed diagonally at the sky.

The advantages of this kind of stance are stable body shape, both offensive and defensive capabilities, and flexible advancement and retreat.

Looking at the figure carved by the other party, Qingdeng couldn't help but praise it secretly.

At a quick glance, Tojo Shintaro seemed to have completely disappeared into the shadow of the wooden gun.

Even through his clothes, Qingden could clearly feel that the muscles in his lower body were tightening.

Obviously, Shintaro Tojo has accumulated amazing elasticity and explosive power in his body!

At that moment, a low roar was heard first, and the next moment, Shintaro Tojo suddenly stood up and rushed towards Qingto!

Also rushing towards Qingdeng was the round gun head!

This was a terrifying blow that made people's hair stand on end. While Qingdeng raised his gun to block it, he opened his eyes wide and carefully looked at the opponent's whole body without blinking.

The two of them were staggered, and the floor made a loud thud.

——I see...the left foot needs to be pulled back a little bit...the muscles on the right side of the leg should not be too tight...

From just now, Qingdeng has been observing every move and move of the other party, not letting go of any detail.

The talents "Ghost Heart +5" and "Elite Spearmanship" are activated together!

Just a "Ghost Heart +5" gives Qingden a genius-like understanding ability.

Not to mention that on this basis, there is an additional "talented in spear skills"?

In order to steal... and learn more content, Qingdeng did not hesitate to sell flaws and lure the opponent into taking action.

Abruptly, Qingdeng concentrated his strength on his toes, then pushed forward suddenly.

As he ran, he raised his gun and assumed a "flat shot" stance.

His gun was not aimed at the opponent's chest, but toward the opponent's lower body, stabbing it with thunderous momentum.

At this moment, the opponent took half a step back, and the wooden gun in his palm bounced up from the lower position, like a flexible leather whip.

Snap - Qingdeng's gun and the opponent's gun were entangled in mid-air, splattering out bits of sawdust.

The opponent's wooden gun has an amazing power,

When it suddenly rose from the bottom up, it was like a whirlwind, seeming to sweep away the wooden gun in Qingdeng's hand.

——Oh... No wonder his movements are so flexible... It turns out to be a "hand"... The left hand needs to be looser...

Next, the two fought against each other for several more rounds.

——The center of gravity of the body should be further lowered...

Aoto's spear grazed Tojo Shintaro's temple

——The muscles on the side of the legs need to be strengthened...

Tojo Shintaro narrowly escaped Aoto's surprise attack, and his posture was very embarrassing.

——Well... I'm finally getting used to the distance of the "spear"...



The onlookers present - except for Hijikata Toshizo, Kondo Shusuke and a few others - all looked at Aoto with shock.

Although they knew that Qingdeng was a monster that could not be measured by common sense, they still couldn't suppress the shock in their hearts!

Although most of them are newbies, they are still martial arts practitioners after all.

Since he is a martial arts practitioner, it is not difficult to see that Qingdeng is making rapid progress!

The speed of progress is simply incredible!

As for Qingteng's gun-wielding action at the beginning, if you give a vivid example... it's like a "basketball player playing football."

Very powerful and very fast.

However, most of his movements are in the style of a "swordsman".

However... as time goes by, his movements become more and more like a "gunslinger"!

The rate at which his marksmanship level increases is based on "rounds".

With each round, Qingden's spear skills will improve by one point!

People with deeper skills may even be keenly aware that Qingdeng's spear-piercing power is getting sharper and sharper!

At the beginning of the battle, Aomori's spear skills were obviously immature and far inferior to Tojo Shintaro.

But now, the former seems to be catching up with the latter!

Gradually, the battle between the two became more and more intense!

A new round of fierce fighting lasted for a long time.

The two sides were flashing around, imaginary and real.

Aoto's figure and footwork were dazzling, and he kept attacking Shintaro Tojo.

Shintaro Tojo, on the other hand, will retaliate every time he is attacked without showing any weakness! His fat body flexibly dodges left and right, deflects Ayoto's offensive with ease, and launches a tooth-for-tat counterattack.

However, after a moment, Shintaro Tojo narrowed his eyes and stared at Qingto.

Before he could, he shouted:

"Stop! I admit defeat!"

As he said that, he took the initiative to put away his spear.

As he admitted defeat, the system sounded——

[Ding! Scanned talent!]
