Yitong's expression has undergone a wonderful change since just now.
When the battle on the deck of the stowaway boat just started, Yitong was still full of pride and confidence, watching the battle on the deck with the mentality of watching a good show.
However... as soon as Ogata started to move, Yitong's face quickly became ugly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Some of the subordinates who accompanied Yitong and stood on the side of the ship to watch the battle all looked very excited.
On the deck of the stowaway boat, except for the two killed by Naoshu, the other 16 people were all killed by Ogata, and without exception, these 16 people were killed by one blow, while Ogata did not leave any injuries on his body.
As early as when he saw his right-hand man, One-Eye, being easily killed by Ogata, Yitong realized that he was in trouble.
At this moment, there is only one thought left in Yi Tong's mind: retreat!
Yitong is just a pirate, and he is also an evil thief who makes a living by trafficking in human beings. The concept of honor and disgrace, benevolence, justice and morality in Yitong's heart has long become deformed.
Everything he does is to make money. Once he finds that it is difficult to make money in something, he will naturally find another way, or simply stop doing the thing that cannot make him money.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Yitong still had to face this fact - the strength Ogata had shown so far made him feel a little scared...
All 18 people on the stowaway boat, led by One Eye, were wiped out. Currently, there are only 45 people left under Yitong's command. Although in terms of numbers, Yitong and his team still have an absolute advantage, but they can easily kill 16 of his people in the face of the enemy.
Ogata, even if we win, I'm afraid it will only be a miserable victory...
These subordinates are all important team members that Yitong has worked hard to accumulate bit by bit.
If most of his subordinates were killed or injured, then the damage caused to Yitong would be fatal. Such serious damage would not be able to be healed in even 1 or 2 years.
If we capture this stowaway boat at the expense of most of our men's casualties... Unless the stowaways on this stowaway boat are all stunning beauties like the "First Beauty of the Warring States Period" Oda City, they will never be able to make up for the loss.
Loss.
If the losses are greater than the gains, then don't do it - this is the philosophy that Antong has always pursued.
Although it would be a loss to face to leave in such a dejected manner, to Yitong, how much is face worth?
However... just when Yitong started to seriously consider how to retreat decently, Miyabe standing behind him suddenly said to him quietly:
"...Lord Yitong, let's make a deal. You help us capture that guy alive. We will give you 1,000 taels of gold as a reward afterwards."
"Ah?" Yitong turned his head and cast a surprised look at Miyabe behind him, "Capture... that guy alive?"
Yitong looked at Ogata with uncontrollably fearful eyes.
At this time, Ogata was making moves that Yitong couldn't understand - he seemed to be collecting wakizashi from his fallen subordinates.
Miyabe nodded: "I will explain the specific reasons to you later."
"Now please give me a helping hand and help me capture that warrior alive."
"Of course, I will also send my subordinates to assist you."
"I have a total of 16 subordinates, and none of them are mediocre in skill. I will send my people to work with you to capture the samurai. When we arrive at Satsuma Domain, I will offer you a thousand taels of gold with both hands.
reward."
"A thousand taels of gold..." Yan Tong swallowed subconsciously.
Thousand taels of gold - this is not a small amount.
After working hard for a year and abducting and selling countless people, he might not be able to save even a thousand taels of gold.
Yantong, who is eager to install European artillery on his ships, is short of money recently, and a thousand taels of gold is a fatal temptation for him.
However, as soon as "desire" emerges, "reason" rushes forward and fights with "desire".
——No matter how much money you have, you still have to live to spend it...
Miyabe looked at Yitong deeply with a sharp look that seemed to be able to see through Yitong's thoughts, and then said calmly:
"2,000 taels of gold. As long as you help me capture that warrior alive, I will give you 2,000 taels of gold in the future."
"Master Yitong, you have cooperated with us before. You should also know our creditworthiness and know that we can indeed afford the payment."
The expression on Yitong's face became more tangled as Miyabe's words fell. Perhaps in order to concentrate on thinking, Yitong closed his eyes tightly.
At this time, Miyabe's voice came faintly again:
"...3000 taels of gold."
"If you still don't want to, then forget it. 3,000 taels of gold is the maximum amount I can apply for."
Miyabe said calmly that ordinary people may not be able to save a huge amount of money after 10 lifetimes of hard work.
Yitong opened his eyes suddenly.
There was a hint of madness in his eyes.
"Okay!" Yitong gritted his teeth, "Let's fight!"
He turned his head and looked at the subordinates beside him: "Let everyone get their weapons! Prepare to fight!"
…
…
——What just... happened?
This question kept lingering in Ashu's mind.
She desperately recalled everything that had just happened in front of her...
She only remembered that after Isshiki and Naoshu rushed forward to meet the enemy, Ogata also started to move.
She was following Ogata closely, thinking of cooperating with Ogata and the two of them who were more familiar with each other and covering each other.
"Mr. Goro! I will cover your rear! You will also cover my back!"
Ashuki shouted to Ogata in an passionate tone.
And then... there was no more.
As soon as she finished shouting these words, Ozu launched an attack like a gust of wind towards the one-eyed man who was protected by a large number of subordinates.
"Mr. Wulang! What are you doing..."
Before Azuki could finish shouting these words, Ogata had already rushed into the enemy group.
The next scene... made Ashu look like this stupidly, until now.
Ogata was chopping melons and vegetables... no, with an action that seemed even easier than chopping melons and vegetables, he easily cut a bloody path leading to the one-eye.
The one-eyed man also discovered that Ogata was not an easy-to-deal with soft-footed shrimp, and hurriedly waved the nodachi in his hand to launch a fierce attack on Ogata.
Ogata, on the other hand, seemed to be very good at dealing with such a tall person. While continuing to get close to One Eye, he nimbly dodged every attack from One Eye.
After dodging Three Eyes' slashes in one go, Ogata smoothly arrived in front of One Eye and pierced One Eye's heart.
Seeing this scene, Ashu became confused...
What just happened...?
Is this a skill that humans can achieve...?
Could it be that the person I have been chatting with these days is actually a great swordsman?!
Did I just say to a great swordsman who can hit dozens of people at once: "I'll cover your back"...
Azhu couldn't help but recall it.
Recalling whether I had done anything to offend Ogata before...
"You stay here to protect the ship."
At this time, Ogata's voice suddenly reached the ears of Azuki and others.
After hearing Ogata's words, Asuka finally came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Azuki looked around and saw that Ogata had retracted the Great Shakten into its sheath, and in his hand was a wakizashi that he had just found from the corpses of pirates on the ground. This wakizashi was currently in the process of being unsheathed.
state.
Pirates, unlike samurai, carry a katana and wakizashi with them, so Ogata spent some time just now to find this wakizashi of fairly good quality.
Ogata raised his head and looked towards the side of the pirate ship - at this time, Yitong and others were no longer visible.
Just now, Yitong and others hurriedly left from the side of the ship.
Ogata guessed that Yitong and others were either preparing to escape, or gathering troops to prepare for a decisive battle with him.
Because the pirate ship was much taller than the stowaway ship, Ogata couldn't see the scene on the ship, and could only hear the constant noise coming from the pirate ship.
"There may be some fish that slip through the net and escape onto this ship later."
Ogata then shouted to Azuki and others.
"So this ship will be left to your care."
"Leave it to... us to guard?" Azhu asked doubtfully, "Mr. Wulang, what about you?"
Azhu herself didn't realize it - when she was talking to Ogata, she had unconsciously used the highest level of honorifics...
"Me?" Ogata smiled, "Of course I will pursue the victory."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Azuki and others to respond, Oo launched a sprint towards the pirate ship in front of him.
Just when he was about to rush out of the stowaway ship's deck, Ogata jumped and leaped towards the side wall of the pirate ship facing the stowaway ship.
When Ogata was about to hit the side wall of the pirate ship, Ogata took out the wakizashi he had just collected and used the power of his leap to plunge into the side wall of the pirate ship.
If it were other ordinary people, I am afraid that they would not have the strength to insert a wakizashi into such a hard wooden board used for shipbuilding.
But Ogata's current strength has long surpassed that of ordinary people, so he just relied on brute force and the potential energy brought by the leap to forcefully plunge the wakizashi into the side wall of the ship.
Then, Ogata used the wakizashi stuck in the side wall as a "ladder" to use his strength. He stepped on the wakizashi, jumped hard, and successfully jumped onto the side of the pirate ship, jumping to the
The position where Yitong and others were standing just now.
As soon as Ogata jumped on the boat, a loud shout suddenly sounded in front of him.
"It's now!"
The owner of this loud shout was none other than Yitong.
As soon as Yi Tong finished speaking, the 10 subordinates holding bows and arrows standing in front of him immediately released their bow strings.
Puff, Puff, Puff...
The sound of the bow strings vibrating exploded one by one.
The bows held by the 10 subordinates in front of Yitong are the only 10 bows on his ship.
Because he basically relies on human trafficking to make money, and he is also good at dancing and has no enemies, so Yitong has never paid much attention to his own weapons.
It was not until recently that I gradually came up with the idea of building a strong armed force. I purchased this European-style three-masted sailing ship, and planned to slowly add artillery, muskets and other advanced weapons in the future.
Yitong regrets it now - if he had known that such a day would come, he would have put the plan to "enhance the armed forces" on the agenda earlier and hastily purchased advanced weapons such as ignition guns.
In this way, you will not fall into the dilemma of having only these 10 bows as the most powerful weapons on the entire ship.
These subordinates of Yitong who can use bows and arrows are not sharpshooters, and they cannot accurately hit the vital points.
Because the palace demanded that Ogata must be captured alive, just before Ogata climbed up, Yitong quickly ordered the arrowheads of all bows and arrows to be cut off, leaving only the arrow shafts and tails.
In this way, Ogata can be prevented from accidentally being shot to death, and at the same time, enough damage can be ensured to Ogata - even if there is no sharp arrow, it will still be very painful after being hit.
Yitong's idea was very good, he wanted to ambush Ogata, and after Ogata climbed up, he would shoot and wound Ogata, and then capture Ogata easily.
But... this sentence is always true - plans can never keep up with changes.
Yitong still underestimated Ogata's strength.
Ogata was not an idiot without actual combat experience. Before he jumped on the ship, he was mentally prepared to encounter various violent attacks after boarding the ship.
Ogata, whose nerves were always on edge, didn't even move his brows after he jumped onto the side of the ship and saw the 10 arrows fired at him.
Ogata's 15-point reflex nerve now unleashed its power.
As soon as Yitong shouted "It's now!", Ogata's body had already reacted.
He suddenly pulled out Dai Shiten and Dai Zizai. After the 10 pirates released their bow strings, Ogata quickly identified which arrows would hit him.
To other people, arrows that are too fast to be seen, in Ogata's eyes... are like a "children's toy bow and arrow" that he played with in his previous life. The bow and arrows are both made of plastic.
Click, click, click...
The sound of arrow shafts being chopped off sounded one by one.
Ogata swung his two swords and chopped down the arrows that hit him one by one.
After easily defusing this wave of arrows, Ogata couldn't help but sigh - he is indeed much stronger than before.
If he had just left the Hirose Domain, he would probably have to rely on the "selfless state" to capture the trajectories of these arrows.
But now - under normal circumstances, he can barely catch the trajectory of the projectiles fired by the matchlock gun, let alone the bow and arrow.
Ogata's action of knocking down the arrow made Yitong, who was originally confident, almost drop his jaw to the ground.
At this time, Miyabe, who was standing next to Yitong, also widened his eyes in surprise.
"Two-sword style..." Miyabe murmured, his face gradually becoming serious.
After knocking down the oncoming arrow, Ogata finally had time to carefully examine the scene in front of him.
In front of Yitong stood 10 archers.
And behind him, stood a large group of people - probably all of Yitong's remaining subordinates were here.
They hold a variety of weapons in their hands.
Knife, Odachi, harpoon for fishing...
Because they are pirates, there is no strong discipline to speak of. They stand in a group casually and there is no queue to speak of.
What made Ogata more concerned was that there was a strange person standing next to Yitong.
This strange person that Ogata is concerned about is none other than Miyabe.
Standing side by side with Yitong, Gongbu could clearly feel the difference between the two.
Yitong's whole body exuded a gangster air.
Miyabu, on the other hand, has an elegant temperament. He doesn't look like a bandit at all, but more like a teacher in a study.
Behind Miyabe, there were more than ten people standing.
These dozen or so people, like Miyabe, have a very different temperament from those pirates - they have solemn expressions, they all have two swords, a katana and a wakizashi, in their waists, and they are basically shaved neatly.
Moon generation head.
The dozen or so people behind Miyabe, no matter how you look at them, are all orthodox samurai.
Ogata had just finished taking a rough look at the scene in front of him when Yitong suddenly gritted his teeth: "Throw the net! Cover him!"
"Yes!" The subordinates standing on the left and right sides of Yitong held a large ball of things and hurried forward.
What they are holding in their hands is a large ball of net.
This is the fishing net they usually use when hunting whales. It is not only large enough, but also tough enough. Once it is caught in it, it cannot be broken out without a little effort.
This is the second trick that Yitong came up with - use the net to control this guy, and capture him while his movements are trapped by the net.
The pirate responsible for throwing the net ran to a position slightly ahead of the pirate using the bow and threw the net out with all his strength.
Because the material is tough, it is not easy to be cut - this is for ordinary people.
Looking at the fishing net covering his head, Ogata, expressionless, just silently raised Da Shi Tian and Da Zi Zai...
Yitong saw the light of the knife that was more dazzling than the sun.
Ogata waved his two swords alternately, and when the sword light dissipated, the two large fishing nets turned into dozens of fragments, falling to the ground like falling snow...
As a pirate, Yitong naturally knew how difficult it was to cut the fishing nets, so after seeing Ogata easily cut the two fishing nets he had high hopes into into pieces, he could no longer restrain himself.
Astonished in my heart, I screamed:
"You guy! Who are you? Why is there an expert like you on this little stowaway boat?!"
Yitong yelled out the doubts in his heart.
He really couldn't figure out... why there were such powerful masters on that inconspicuous little stowaway boat...
And why was he so unlucky... In this vast sea, he unexpectedly met this master by chance.
If he could go back in time, he really wanted to go back in time and strangle to death the one who got greedy and had the idea of taking this stowaway boat...
"Just a ronin." Ogata calmly answered Yitong's question.
The look of madness on Yitong's face was now becoming more intense at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He knew that he had no way out now.
So he turned his head and shouted to the subordinates behind him:
"Everyone, come together! Capture him! Whoever successfully captures him alive will be rewarded! A hundred taels of reward!"
This was Yitong's third move, and it was also the last move he could use - to let his subordinates swarm forward and capture Ogata.
Except for Yitong himself, no one else knows about the "3,000 taels of gold transaction" he made with Gongbu.
If Yitong's subordinates knew that Yitong and Miyabe had such a deal, they would definitely scold Yitong for being stingy. He could get 3,000 taels of gold, but only gave 100 taels to the person who caught Ogata with his own hands.
Controlling bandits like pirates, who are willing to do all kinds of unscrupulous things for money, has a great advantage, that is, it is easier to use money to command them.
Ogata's gesture of easily chopping down arrows and smashing fishing nets just now had already made many pirates on the deck feel timid and cower.
But after hearing Yitong's loud shout, their eyes changed instantly.
Why do they want to follow Yitong to become pirates, put their heads in their waistbands, and engage in the unscrupulous human trafficking?
It’s not just about the money!
100 taels of gold—this is a lot of money in Japan, where the "morning famine" has just passed, and now everything in Japan is in a state of waste waiting to be renovated!
You can make a lot of money for a few years with a lot of money!
100 taels of gold—faced with this number, courage gradually suppressed the cowardice in the hearts of the pirates.
Everyone, come together! Wait until the samurai is exhausted, or accidentally reveals a flaw! I will take advantage of the chaos to capture him - this group of pirates, whose eyes have been covered with strong greed, almost have this in their minds now.
of.
Looking at the pirates in front of him whose faces were filled with obvious greed, Ogata sighed silently.
"Scenes like this... I see them all the time..." Ogata sighed in a low voice at a volume that only he could hear clearly.
Earlier when Hirose Domain tried to kill Matsudaira Gennai and faced Matsudaira Gennai, Ogata had already seen such a scene - tempted by money, everyone rushed forward in a swarm.
And Ogata also often saw their overly similar endings.
After sighing softly, Ogata held the Great Freedom and Great Release in his left and right hands, and slowly walked towards the pirates in front of him to greet them...
…
…
He still hadn't completely recovered from the shock just now, and stared blankly at the tall pirate ship in front of him.
Due to the angle of view, he couldn't see the scene on the ship, and could only hear the constant noises made up of shouts of killing coming from above.
——That Goro Majima...has he already fought with the remaining pirates on the ship...?
At this time, for some reason, Isshiki suddenly recalled what he had said to him before the battle began - "I feel like I am a mediocre swordsman, and I still have a long way to go."
When he thought of what Ogata had said to him, a feeling of resentment mixed with a bit of grievance emerged involuntarily in Isshiki's heart.
——Do you think your swordsmanship is mediocre?!
Isshiki shouted silently in his heart.
——If you call me mediocre in swordsmanship, then who else can be considered to be superb in swordsmanship? And who am I, the person who is protected by you?
The gesture of Ogata easily killing the pirates that he had just witnessed flashed before Isshiki's eyes again.
New emotions emerged in Yishi's heart.
The emotions that emerged in Isshiki's heart this time were happiness and... shame.
Isshiki recalled the scene where he told his grandfather after he had a conflict with Ogata, "If grandpa hadn't stopped me, I would definitely compete with him and let him see how powerful the swordsmanship is that he looked down upon."...
Isshiki feels very lucky now...
Fortunately, grandpa was able to pull him away in time.
Otherwise...if he really stupidly invites Ogata to have a discussion...Isshiki can no longer imagine what will happen next...
Judging from Ogata's performance just now, Isshiki can conclude that this man is the most powerful swordsman he has ever seen.
Although saying this seemed a bit disrespectful to his grandfather, Isshiki still said loudly and firmly in a firm tone: Ogata is much more powerful than the most powerful person he has ever seen before - his grandfather.
He felt extremely ashamed when he thought that he had shamelessly stated that he wanted such a great swordsman to experience the power of swordsmanship.
And after feeling happy and ashamed, Isshiki slowly became confused.
——Such a powerful swordsman should be treated as a guest no matter where he goes...
——There must be a bunch of sword halls vying to invite him to be their guest.
——Some powerful vassal states would definitely be happy to invite such powerful warriors to serve as officials in their vassal states.
——With such skills, he must not worry about food and drink... Why did he appear on this small stowaway boat...
——And... why would such a powerful swordsman say "swordsmanship should be eliminated"...
——A great swordsman with such attainments... shouldn't he be extremely passionate about swordsmanship...
Isshiki bit his lower lip hard, feeling puzzled by these questions.
"Um...are you okay?"
Suddenly, Isshiki heard a slightly unfamiliar female voice coming from beside him.
Isshiki quickly turned her head following the sound, and then saw Azhu's face with the childishness unique to her age.
"Are you injured?" Ashuku, who was standing next to Isshiki, asked next.
Hearing Azuki's question, Isshiki was stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked down - he was still in the same posture where he was slumped on the ground like a duck just due to shock.
Azhu, who felt that his slumped position on the ground was a bit embarrassing, blushed slightly and quickly stood up.
"I'm fine. I just accidentally fell down." Isshiki panicked casually.
"Your flexibility is so good." Azhu praised him sincerely. "I remember someone once told me that because the bones of men and women are different, the movement you just made is difficult for men to do.
from."
The "this action" that Ashuk refers to is exactly the duck sitting that Isshiki just did.
"Ah, um... yes." Isshiki said vaguely, "Ever since I was a child, my flexibility has been better than that of my peers."
After casually being fooled by Azuki's compliment just now, Isshiki raised his head again and looked at the pirate ship that kept making noisy noises not far away.
"...I'm going to the ship to support Majima Goro." Isshiki said in a deep voice.
"Huh?" Azuki asked in shock, "But... Mr. Goro said just now: He wants us to guard this ship..."
Because in Japanese, "Goro" and "Goro" have the same pronunciation, even if the two people call Ogata completely different, they can still communicate without any obstacles.
"If the ugly man just now didn't exaggerate the number of crew members on their ship, then there are at least 40 more people on this pirate ship."
One color and one color.
"He can fight more than a dozen people, is it possible that he can fight more than 40 people?"
"He is not the 'Executioner Ittosai'. He can kill one for a hundred and kill hundreds with one."
"Even if Majima Goro can win, he will definitely not win easily."
"I'm going to go up and support him."
After announcing this in a tone that left no room for doubt and rebuttal, Isshiki began to look around, looking for a way to board the pirate ship.
Isshiki is not that agile and can board the side of the ship just like Ogata with a wakizashi inserted into the wall of the ship.
"Ryoma!" At this time, Zhizhou's voice sounded, "You can't go up! It must be very dangerous up there now! If you want to go up, I will go up too!"
Of course, Naoshu, who was standing not far away, heard what Isshiki had just said clearly.
After learning that Isshiki actually planned to board the pirate ship to support Ogata, Naoshu loudly refuted it without thinking.
But he turned a deaf ear to his grandfather's refutation.
Just when Isshiki was seriously looking for a way to board the pirate ship - the mutant disciple.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!"
On the pirate ship, screams suddenly sounded one after another.
Isshiki, Azuki and the others quickly looked up at the pirate ship.
I saw a large number of pirates with frightened faces jumping off the deck in a panic.
Some jumped into the sea, plunged into the sea, or dived into the water, or swam in a panic away from the pirate ship.
Some also jumped directly onto the deck of the stowaway boat.
Just like now - two pirates, one tall and one short, jumped onto the deck of the stowaway ship and jumped in front of Isshiki and the others.
The short one is closer to Zhi Zhou, and the tall one is closer to Isshiki and Azuki.
After Isshiki and the others stared blankly at the pirate who suddenly jumped onto their deck, Naoshu was the first to come back to his senses.
"Kill them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Naozhou raised the sword in his hand and rushed towards the short pirate nearest to him.
After resting for a while just now, Zhi Zhou's physical strength has recovered somewhat.
After half a beat of delay, Isshiki and Tsukuru also moved and rushed towards the taller pirate in front of them.
clang!
Isshiki swung his sword and struck the "tall pirate" in the head.
This "tall pirate" was not without strength. After Isshiki slashed at him with his sword, he quickly raised the sword in his palm to block Isshiki's attack.
However - just when he blocked Isshiki's downward slash, a small fist came from his side and imprinted on his chest...
"puff--!"
As soon as this small fist touched the chest of the "tall pirate", he felt like he had bitten a paper bag filled with plasma, and a large mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth.
He took a few steps back, then fell heavily to the ground, his body twitching slightly. A small dent now appeared where the fist had hit him.
Judging from his appearance, if he didn't send someone to treat him quickly, he probably wouldn't be able to survive.
——This child——?!
Isshiki looked at the owner of the small fist in surprise, Ashuki, who was still maintaining his punching posture.
——My boxing and kicking skills are very good...
Isshiki silently praised Azuki's skill just now in his heart.
If he had been the one to deliver the punch just now, he would never have been able to achieve the same effect that Azhu had.
Azuki, who didn't notice the admiring look that Isshiki cast towards her at this moment, slowly put away his punching stance, then raised his head with a look of absence, and looked at some of the pirates who were still there.
A pirate ship jumped off the deck in a panic.
"I said...who did you say you were going to support just now?"
Hearing Azuki's words spoken in a half-joking tone, Isshiki pursed his lips and turned to look at the pirate ship with complicated eyes, whose noise was getting smaller and smaller.
…
…
"Quick, run away!"
"Get away! Don't block me!"
"Ahhhhhhhh! Don't, don't leave me!"
…
The good thing about those thieves and bandits who control everything for money and are so greedy for money is that they can easily control and motivate them with money.
But there is also a disadvantage, that is, they have no discipline at all.
Although they also know how to use their numerical advantage to encircle and suppress Ogata through flanking, outflanking and other methods, there is a saying that goes well - in the face of the absolute power difference, any technique is useless.
In terms of "geographical advantage", this place is actually not favorable to Ogata.
The deck is not spacious, which is not conducive for Ogata to defeat many enemies. Moreover, Ogata is not used to fighting on such a deck that is constantly shaking.
Therefore, if their number could be increased by 1 or 2 times, it would bring some trouble to Ogata.
But now there are only more than 40 pirates under Yitong's command - what can such a small number of people do?
There were still more than 40 pirates under Yitong's command, and Ogata only killed 5 or 6 of them. Their morale and fighting spirit were declining at a speed visible to the naked eye.
As soon as the number of people killed by Ogata exceeded double digits, the morale of the pirates completely collapsed.
They panicked and began to flee.
Some went deeper into the cabin.
Some fled outside the deck, jumped into the sea, or jumped onto stowaway boats.
Only a handful of people still have the courage to draw their swords against Ogata.
For human traffickers, Ogata has no other emotions except hatred and disgust.
Because of his disgust with human traffickers, and in order to reduce the number of people who jumped onto the stowaway boat as much as possible, Ogata pursued them mercilessly.
The "Pirate Legion" that was so aggressive just now completely collapsed in less than half a stick of incense.
There was no blood on Yitong's face at this time, and he slumped on the ground as if he had lost his soul, murmuring continuously:
"It's over... it's over... my team is over... the team is over..."
Compared to Yitong's gaffe, Gongbu standing next to Yitong was much calmer.
He has now completely recovered from the shock of witnessing Ogata chopping arrows and tearing nets.
Miyabe stood with his hands behind his hands, quietly looking at the one-sided battlefield ahead.
"...Miyabe-sama." At this time, Morimaru, who was standing behind Miyabe, suddenly said, "Do you need...me to join the battle?"
After saying that, Morimaru put his hand on the handle of the sword in his palm.
"... Morimaru. If you duel with that guy, you have a slight chance of winning."
"No chance of winning." Morimaru replied without thinking, "This person can split arrows, chop tough fishing nets into pieces, fight against dozens of pirates, and feel like he is in an uninhabited land... This person is undoubtedly the
A great swordsman with extremely high skills."
"Instead of having an honest one-on-one duel, I have no chance of winning."
"but--"
Morimaru suddenly changed the subject.
"If it's a fight where I'm good at, then I'm sure to beat him."
After saying that, Morimaru let out a sneer that made people shudder.
"...If that's the case, then let's wait a little longer." Miyabe said calmly, "Consume a little more of that guy's energy."
…
…
Although the pirates have basically been defeated, there are still a few people who, whether because of luck and thinking that they still have a chance to defeat Ogata, or because they are simply bad-minded, still do not retreat, and still persevere in fighting Ogata.
Fang launched an attack.
The flow of two swords without self, flow.
While Ogata blocked the stabbing attack of the pirate in front of him with his Great Freedom, he cut off half of his waist and abdomen with his Great Release.
[Ding! Use the two swords of Wuwu flow and flow to kill the enemy]
[Acquire 35 points of personal experience and 30 points of swordsmanship "Wuwo Sword Style" experience]
It's just a bunch of pirates who make money by kidnapping and selling people, so naturally there won't be any masters among them.
In Ogata's impression, except for the one-eyed man he killed before and a few people who gave him more than 50 experience points, the experience points given by others basically fluctuated between 20 and 40.
Ogata pulled General Da Shiten away from the pirate whose belly had been cut off in half, and suddenly felt the sharp sound of breaking wind coming from his side.
Ogata immediately used step steps as fast as a conditioned reflex to move to a position where he would not be hit by the breaking wind, and then swung his sword in the direction of the breaking wind.
Zikakaka...!
The familiar feeling of the blade cutting into the human body did not reach Ogata's palm.
It feels very strange when it reaches the palm of your hand.
What reached Ogata's ears was the sound of a knife cutting into an iron piece.
Ogata looked at the things that his Daishiten had struck with a somewhat surprised look.
Those whom Mahashikten beheaded were human beings.
The sound of breaking wind that came from Ogata's side just now was caused by the person standing next to Ogata.
He slashed at Ogata with his sword, but Ogata dodged with a step. While dodging, Ogata counterattacked with his sword and slashed towards his chest.
However - the knife did not cut into his flesh, it only cut into something like an iron piece, creating a string of sparks.
——This is...chain mail...
Ogata narrowed his eyes slightly.
Under this man's clothes, he was wearing a piece of chain mail, and it was this chain mail that saved this man's life.
At this time, another person attacked Ogata. He raised his sword and stabbed Ogata in the waist and abdomen.
The two-sword style without self, the blade is reversed.
clang!
Ogata blocked the man's attack with his blade and launched a counterattack.
However, after fighting back, they discovered that this guy was also wearing chainmail.
After realizing that the enemies in front of him were somewhat different from those who had fled just now, Xu took a few steps back to widen the distance between him and the enemies.
Ogata moved his eyes and glanced over the faces of the enemies in front of him one by one.
There are still 15 people who still have the courage to confront Ogata.
Ogata was surprised to find that these 15 people were exactly the dozen or so people standing behind the guy (Miyabe) who had the aura of a teacher who had just left a deep impression on him.
Because these people were more like samurai than pirates, they left a deep impression on Ogata.
At this moment, only these 15 people were left who had not escaped. Yitong's subordinates had scattered in all directions. They put on various postures, surrounded Ogata in a semicircular formation, and then slowly moved toward Ogata.
Fang gathered around.
——Are they all wearing chainmail...
Ogata secretly thought in his heart.
He had just hit two people, and those two people were wearing thick chainmail.
Even Ogata couldn't cut through the chain mail like tofu.
But - even so, Ogata didn't show any fear when looking at the 15 enemies in front of him who seemed to be wearing chainmail.
Although it is a bit more troublesome to cut off a person wearing chain armor, he is not completely helpless. After all, he only needs to cut off the head and other places that are not protected by the armor.
Ogata, who had just fought a decisive battle with the shogunate army not long ago, now had very rich experience in dealing with enemies wearing armor.
However, Ogata does not intend to use this experience to deal with the 15 enemies in front of him now.
Not only did Ogata not show fear now, but he also showed a slight smile - because he happened to have a new move that he wanted to try out, and these very tough enemies were perfect for testing this new move.
Ogata used blood vibration to shake off the blood attached to the swords of Da Shi Tian and Da Zi Zai, and then sheathed their swords.
"Fortunately, the child is not here now..." Ogata said softly, "If the child was here and he saw me using her moves easily, it would be difficult to explain..."
After muttering, Ogata leaned over and picked up a katana.
The pirates who fled just now left behind a lot of weapons, so swords and other swords can now be seen everywhere.
After casually wielding the sword, Ogata kicked off his back foot and rushed towards one of the 15 enemies in front of him!
Ogata's explosive power was so amazing that before the man could even react, Ogata had already rushed in front of him.
Sakakihara's sword flow, water falling, luck.
After raising the sword high, Ogata used his luck, and then transferred the force from the luck to the sword, and then chopped the sword down in one breath!
clang--!
The blade of the knife hit the man's chainmail-clad chest, causing a loud bang that could numb the eardrums.
It's a pity...even though the sound was loud, the attack just now still failed to cut through the man's chainmail.
——With only a basic level of luck, there is really no way to transfer the power to the weapon well...
Because of the explosive power generated by luck, Ogata's water drop just now was extremely powerful.
It's just that - the key to swinging a sword is to exert all the force in a straight line. The direction of the blade and the direction of the force when slashing must be completely consistent, so that powerful force can be exploded and at the same time to the greatest extent possible.
Reduce knife damage.
Ogata just failed to transfer the power to the sword well, causing the power to diverge.
Not only was he unable to concentrate his strength, but he also caused damage to the blade, with a large gap appearing directly on the blade.
This is the reason why Ogata chose to use someone else's sword to test this new move - lest the new move, which he was not used to yet, injure his own sword.
After testing the strength of his elementary luck, Ogata once again took several steps back to widen the distance.
——Since the elementary level of luck really cannot superimpose power onto the sword well...
Ogata silently opened his system...

"It's so quiet up there now..." Azhu stood on tiptoes and bounced vigorously, trying to see the scene on the deck.
But with her height, no matter how she jumped, she couldn't see the scene on the pirate ship.
From now on, no pirates have escaped from the deck.
There were a few pirates who were desperate and jumped onto the deck of the stowaway ship. Since there were too few of them, they were all jointly dealt with by Isshiki, Ashuku and others.
"...Sure enough, I still have to go up and check the situation first." After saying that, Isshiki looked around again, looking for a way to board the pirate ship.
"...Little girl." At this moment, Naoshu's voice suddenly sounded from the side of Isshiki and Azuki.
Zhizhou, who was panting heavily, slowly walked towards Ashu.
"I just... noticed your boxing skills." Zhou Zhou looked like he couldn't restrain his curiosity, "What kind of boxing did you use to have such power?"
"Humph!" Hearing Zhizhou's praise, Azhu's face showed a bit of joy, "This is our family's unique skill."
"If you want to learn it, you can buy it from me. I sell the secret book of Professor's special skill. You can buy one for only 30 yuan."
"But I want to remind you first - this skill of mine is easy to learn, but difficult to master."
"I have been practicing our family's unique skills since I can remember. I have been practicing until now and finally achieved some success."
After finishing speaking, Azhu turned his attention back to the pirate ship next to him.
"I'll show you my secret book later. If you like it, you can buy one."
"Now let's focus on dealing with these pirates."
Azhu looked the pirate ship up and down several times, pondered for a moment, and said:
"How about... let me go up and take a look."
"You?" Isshiki looked at Azhu in surprise, "How do you plan to get up there?"
"I feel like I'm quite agile~~" After saying this in a half-joking tone, he spread his short legs and pointed towards the wakizashi that Ogata had just inserted on the side wall of the ship.
Run.
After jumping on the wakizashi, Tsuki used the wakizashi as a leverage point to jump onto the side of the ship just like Ogata did just now...

Ogata's current feeling... to use a more vulgar word, is: refreshing.
Very cool, very cool.
At this time, when he chopped open the chainmail, although it could not be regarded as chopping melons and vegetables, it could still be regarded as chopping bamboo mats and wood chips.
When the Yun Jin reaches a high level, not only can the burst of force be smoothly transferred to the blade, but the burst of force can also reach several levels, and it has enough power to cut through armor with the blade.
Relying on his luck, Ogata swung his sword and chopped off the chainmail armor of the enemies in front of him one by one.
The only shortcoming is probably the cost of the sword. After all, it is used to cut iron with a sword, and the sword Ogata is using now is not a big sword. Ogata, who has killed 8 people in a row, has changed 5 swords during this period.
The effect of luck exceeded Ogata's expectations, causing a smile of joy to appear on Ogata's face unconsciously.
The reason why he unlocked Luck in the first place was because it could make his slashes sharper.
——Now...I'm afraid not many people can take my sword forcefully...
Ogata said this secretly in his heart, and took up his posture again.
But at this moment... out of the corner of Ogata's eye, he suddenly noticed... a small thing on his left side...
Ogata turned his head and looked to the left.
I saw Azhu grabbing the deck of the ship's side with both hands and hanging her whole body over the side of the ship, with only her hands and her little head exposed.
Ogata just stared at Azuki, who was hanging over the side of the ship.
Azhu:w(?Д?)w
Ogata:Σ(°△°|||)
The expressions of the two of them now are very wonderful.
*******
*******
Ashu's w(?Д?)w, and the w's on the left and right, can be imagined as little paws on the deck. This expression is really too vivid for Ashu in this chapter.
This chapter can be regarded as a supplementary update. More than a month ago, a new alliance leader was added to this book - [Gu Rong]. However, due to various reasons, the update for the alliance leader has been owed. The author could have regarded it as nothing.
It happened, and I pretended to forget this update in a daze, but the author didn't do it, and finally made it up today. It's really not easy.
Everyone sees that the author has worked so hard to update 12,000 yuan on the first day of November. Please vote for the author with more monthly votes! (Leopard Head Crying.jpg)
