Chapter 687 Ogata: Do you know what despair is? 【6700】
Screaming faces, faces distorted by fear or pain, gleaming guns, blood foam scattered in the air - these scenes were mixed together, and they passed through Matabei's field of vision one after another.
There were enemies all around, and there were also agile Iga ninjas wandering around, so Ogata didn't dare to put down Isshikika and could only keep her in his arms.
He needs to hold Isshiki Hana with one left hand, leaving only one right hand to grab the knife.
But he relied on this knife to wield the effect of 6 knives.
Front, left, right, rear... no matter which direction the enemy is located in Ogata's direction, it is difficult to avoid Ogata's sword.
When the musketeers launched long-range shooting at Ogata, they had nothing to do against Ogata, let alone now that Ogata is getting close to them.
The forehead was opened...
The neck was split.
The chest was punctured.
Ogata dashed left and right in the enemy group, back and forth, his sword shining brightly, and the wind blowing from his feet.
He raised his head and chest proudly, tearing apart the enemy group that gathered like clouds from one end, and no one could stop him.
In just a moment, 30 people fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Being slaughtered like cattle and sheep - even if these musketeers are well-trained elites, it is difficult to resist this overwhelming feeling of despair and powerlessness.
The musketeers began to get confused.
Some are running away.
Some stared with ferocious eyes, pointed their guns at Ogata, and prepared to fight.
From the corner of Ogata's eye, he saw a certain musketeer pulling the trigger on him not far to his right.
Ogata could clearly see the moment the projectile came out of the barrel and the trajectory of the projectile flying in the air.
And this is also the reason why the guns of these musketeers have not been able to hit Ogata until now.
In the past, it was difficult to clearly see the trajectory of bullets even in the "state of selflessness", but now in Ogata's eyes, there is no way to hide it.
Who is shooting, and where are the bullets flying? None of it escapes Ogata's eyes and ears.
The quick reactions and agility that Ogata currently possesses allow him to immediately take evasive or defensive actions the moment he discovers the trajectory of the bullet.
Just like now - Ogata moved his body back slightly and dodged the bullet fired by the musketeer on his right. While dodging, he also took out the knife in his hand and hit someone next to him.
He put it down, and then swept it to the right, using his right elbow to make close contact with the other person's face.
His right elbow felt the touch of broken bones - the bridge of this guy's nose was completely punched into his face. With the root of his nose as the center, this guy's entire face was sunken into a large piece in the center, and his facial features were all distorted.
It became a mess.
The arms, legs and feet can be used casually with far greater strength than before. The power currently in his body makes Ogata feel a little frightened.
Such a powerful force naturally makes every part of Ogata's body an efficient killing weapon.
A simple punch or kick can kill someone, and the death is very tragic.
"Come on! Come on! Kill him! Kill him!"
Ogata raised his eyes and glanced at the man who was shouting "Come on, come on!" - this man was clearly a commander-level figure at a glance.
Whenever possible, the thief must be captured first - after countless battles with one against many, this principle has been deeply ingrained in Ogata's blood and DNA.
From the beginning, Ogata did not rush and kill aimlessly.
He has been consciously moving closer to the kind of person who looks like a commander.
The commander who had just shouted "Come on, come on" was now about ten steps away from Ogata.
After confirming the person's location, Ogata immediately turned into a hurricane, "crushing" the enemies blocking his way, and quickly moved towards the commander.
This commander is also a bloody man.
He did not turn around and run away, but stared with eyes that were shining with fierce light, and ordered loudly and orderly to the dozen or so musketeers who were standing in front of him and had just been gathered by him and still had fighting spirit:
"open……"
At the moment when he was about to spit out the last syllable of "fire", the light of the sword came.
The clothes of Ogata and Isshikika fluttered.
A half-arc blade of light was drawn, cutting through the air.
When the cut air was restored, the dozen or so musketeers blocking the commander all fell to the ground, or stopped moving, or stopped moving after a while.
"……fire."
The commander, who had not yet realized what he was doing, spat out the last syllable of "fire".
At the same moment as the words fell, a blade of light struck his chin from bottom to top.
Ogata's original intention was to cut this man's head in half from bottom to top.
But after the blade cut all the way to the bridge of his nose, the blade stopped cutting.
It's not that Ogata has no strength.
But the blade is no longer sharp.
This sword Ishikawa gave him in exchange for it has accompanied Ogata all the way from fighting in the shabby neighborhood to the present. The blade has been extremely damaged. Now it is covered with a thick layer of blood and fat, and its sharpness has been greatly reduced.
.
No matter how powerful a person is, they cannot cut through thick flesh with a ruler.
Seeing that he could not successfully cut the man's head in half, Ogata frowned slightly, then he raised the knife and stabbed it forward from the bridge of his nose to the back of his forehead, and then pulled the knife back.
The commander's death had an immediate effect - the order of the surrounding musketeers collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye due to the loss of the commander's control.
The number of people fleeing in all directions increased in a straight line.
Those who still wanted to fight, because they had no command, they fought on their own, holding guns and fighting randomly. It was just that they didn't hit Ogata, but they accidentally injured many of their own people.
A large number of people were accidentally injured, further deteriorating the order.
Zuemon, who had been watching the battle carefully, now looked completely unable to sit still.
He clenched the large naginata in his hand tightly, and then said quickly to the commander of Division 2 next to him:
"I will hold back Ogata Ittosai later, and you and other commanders can quickly take the opportunity to reorganize the troops!"
Zuemon has already figured it out - if Ogata continues to make trouble like this, their musketeer unit will collapse.
After the battle just now in the "shabby neighborhood", not to mention those who have faced Ogata directly, even those who have not fought Ogata have an indelible feeling towards this monster that has severely reduced their numbers.
fear.
But now, Ogata's actions of easily dodging bullets, and the terror of being able to knock out a person's brains with just one punch, made the fear in the hearts of the Musketeers increase exponentially.
If the troops collapse, they will lose.
There is only one way that Zuemon can think of to break this dangerous situation - to try to entangle Ogata, and then let each division take the opportunity to reorganize their formation and regroup.
Only by doing this can you have a chance to win back the victory.
Otherwise, if Ogata continues to wreak havoc like this, the collapse of the army will only be a matter of time.
And currently, the only person with the ability to entangle Ogata... is Uemon.
The commander of Division 2 is not a mother-in-law. He also has the same judgment as Zuemon: if they don't try to reorganize the team quickly, they will lose.
So after Uemon's words fell, the commander of the 2nd division nodded vigorously and said "Yes".
Immediately afterwards, Zuoemon said in a deep voice:
"At all times, completing the tasks assigned by Toyotomi-sama must be our top priority."
"As long as I can complete the mission assigned by Toyotomi-sama, I will not hesitate to do so even if it costs my life."
"So, when I go to entangle Ogata later, I will try my best to create the best shooting opportunity."
"After you hear me say 'fire', no matter what happens, even if I am standing next to Ogata Ittosai, you must quickly fire on Ogata."
The expression of the commander of Division 2 changed slightly. He turned his head and looked at the left and right gates with complicated eyes, then nodded: "Yes. I understand."
After explaining all this, the left and right guards raised their big naginata high: "Get out of the way! Everyone, get out of the way!"
After pushing back all the men standing in front of him, Zuoemon's huge body immediately pressed towards Ogata like a mountain.
While the left and right gates were attacking Ogata, the commander of Division 2 quickly waved his big hand: "Everyone obeys the order! With me as the center, the whole team! Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
After seeing an acquaintance named Zuemon rushing toward him, and seeing the commander of the 2nd Division ordering the formation of the team, Ogata immediately understood what they were going to do.
Of course he wouldn't just watch as the Musketeers' order was restored, but he couldn't abandon the left and right guards either.
Therefore, after slightly tightening the left palm that was holding Isshikika's sensual left thigh, holding Isshikika more firmly, and saying "Hold on to me" into Isshikika's ear, Xu
Fang lowered his body's center of gravity, as if he was sliding on the ground, and actively faced the left and right gates.
Isshikika felt like vomiting from the beginning.
Ogata held her in his arms and rushed left and right, jumping up and down, which made her head feel dizzy.
But even though she was feeling very uncomfortable, she didn't complain to Ogata at all, or even said a word to Ogata. She kept her mouth shut tightly, for fear that if she spoke, it would distract Ogata.
She tightened her legs together, clasped her two little feet together, wrapped her arms around Ogata's neck, and tried her best to shrink her body into Ogata's arms, trying not to give any pain to Ogata.
Cause too much burden.
At the same time, she arched her back hard and pressed her right face against Ogata's left shoulder. Even though her back was very sore, she did not dare to stretch her waist for fear of two semicircular objects.
Will cover Ogata's sight again.
Yaemon, who was tall and long-armed, and also wielded a long weapon like a large naginata, was naturally the first to attack Ogata.
"Drink——!"
Uchiemon used his left foot as the axis, turned his body, and drove the big naginata in his hand to slash Ogata's left half from the lower right to the upper left, preparing to cut the two people in half together with Isshikika.
At the beginning of the war, Uemon saw Ogata's two major weaknesses - the sword in his hand was no longer usable, and he was holding an Isshiki flower in his arms.
Saemon didn't believe it - with his left hand holding a large living person, the movements of Ogata's left side would not be affected at all.
So just now, when he held his naginata high and rushed towards Ogata, Zuoemon planned a battle strategy - using Ogata's left half as the main attack direction and trying to destroy Ogata's sword.
Iemon's idea was brilliant.
And his judgment was actually not wrong. No matter how strong Ogata became now, if he freed up his left hand to hug a tall adult woman, his movements would not be affected at all.
It's just...he made a mistake in his calculations.
He miscalculated Ogata's current physical fitness...
The big naginata struck out, blowing up clouds of dust and whirlwind, and it was a very vicious blow.
Ogata jumped lightly to the side with his feet as if jumping a rope, easily dodging it.
Before Ogata could advance to a position where his katana could hit Zuoemon, Zuoemon turned his big naginata again and slashed towards Ogata in another direction.
Ogata once again easily dodged through it like jumping on a rope.
The process of dodging Iemon's attack - there is nothing worth describing in detail.
He clearly saw the trajectory of Zuemon's sword, and then hid where the sword couldn't reach him - it was that simple.
Previously, in Ogata's eyes, Zuemon's attacks were fierce attacks that required concentration.
And now... No matter how fast Zuemon swings his sword, can it still be faster than the speed of bullets?
After dodging two slashes from Zuoemon in succession, Ogata approached Zuoemon -
Sakakihara Itto-ryu·Dragon Tail!
The blade struck at Zuo Weimon's neck.
Having suffered the loss of not killing Iumaemon by piercing his neck and heart before, Ogata naturally wouldn't do it a second time.
He didn't know if Zuemon had any weaknesses.
So he decided to test every possible weakness.
Let's start by chopping off his head.
How fast was Ogata's sword? The air that was cut by the blade made a harsh whine.
Seeing the blade heading straight for his neck, Zuemon's pupils shrank violently, and then he hid backwards with a very awkward movement, narrowly escaping Ogata's slash, and the blade only cut through it.
The flesh on his chest.
Ogata's eyebrows jumped slightly when he saw Zuemon's hasty movement of running backwards.
"Are you afraid of having your head chopped off?"
After murmuring softly in a soliloquy tone, Ogata stepped forward, approached the left and right guard again, and slashed at the "giant" with his sword again.
The sword was raised high, blocking the moonlight, and a slender shadow was cast on Zuoemon's eyes, which were increasingly filled with fear.
——Watch me break your knife!
Zuoemon gritted his teeth, took half a step back, then used all his strength to hit Ogata's knife with the iron pole.
Zuemon has enough confidence - if he hits this blow, he will definitely break the tattered sword in Ogata's hand!
He thought so confidently.
However - he knew that his blow could break Ogata's sword, wouldn't Ogata himself not know?
When the two weapons were about to collide, Ogata used brute force to stop the knife in his hand, and then used superb skills to turn the knife around and avoid the attacks from the left and right gates.
The blade of the sword slashed at Soumaemon's right arm holding the sword.
With fear in his eyes, Zuoemon quickly retreated again, narrowly escaping Ogata's slashes again and again, preventing his right arm from being cut off, and only a little of the flesh on his right arm was cut.
Ogata's combos came one after another.
Saemon, who did not believe in evil, swung his sword again and tried to break Ogata's sword again.
But a scene very similar to the one before appeared again - when the two weapons were about to collide, Ogata relied on his current amazing strength and outstanding skills to forcibly change the direction of the knife, avoiding the collision with the left and right guards.
When the door hit hard, it hit his body.
There was another wound on Zuoemon's body.
Ogata's attacks continued one after another.
Apart from swiping his sword twice at Ogata at the beginning, Zuoemon never had any chance to attack Ogata.
He also tried to look for opportunities to counterattack Ogata.
But before he could launch an attack, Ogata's sword came again.
Only the power to parry, no power to fight back - this sentence is perfect to describe the current Zuoemon.
He put all his energy into protecting his head - if he hadn't done so, he might have died countless times just now.
But because he focused all his energy on protecting his head, he had no time to take care of the rest of his body.
There were wounds all over the left and right guards' bodies.
Although the "immortal power" in his body has been working diligently to repair his body, the speed of repair can no longer keep up with the speed of injuries.
As soon as one wound was repaired, two more wounds appeared immediately.
Before, he could still fight Ogata back and forth, but now, less than an hour later, he was knocked down and beaten, completely at a disadvantage.
——Ah...ah...ahh...!
Fear, doubt, and shock made Zuoemon groan uncontrollably in his heart.
At this moment, Uemon suddenly realized that Ogata's physical condition did not seem to be abnormal that humans can achieve at this moment, but he was... extremely similar to someone.
"Lord Toyotomi..."
Saemon couldn't help but whisper this person's name at a volume that only he could hear clearly.
…
…
The end of the queue——
"Hurry up! Reorganize your formation quickly! Have you forgotten the training content you learned on the training ground?"
The commander of Group 8 roughly instructed his subordinates to reorganize their ranks.
Normally, the musketeers would be able to rearrange their gun array in just a blink of an eye.
Then at this moment, when morale was quite low, their movements and thinking abilities became sluggish.
Until now, the 8th team under his command has not been able to formulate anything that can be called a "formation".
The extremely bad battle situation has made the commander of Division 8 very anxious now.
"Give you five breaths! Hurry up and line me up in three neat gun formations!" the commander of Division 8 yelled hysterically, "Otherwise, military law..."
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!"
A sudden scream from behind interrupted the commander of the 8th Division.
--what happened again?
With this thought in his mind, he turned his head and looked behind him.
However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw a purple sword light filling his field of vision.
…
…
The left and right guards kept defending and dodging.
After once again bypassing Izaemon's large naginata across his chest to defend him, Ogata's target was Izaemon's belly.
Ogata planned to cut both left and right guards in half.
He wanted to see if the big man could grow a new lower body after cutting him in half.
Zuemon subconsciously wanted to dodge back as usual.
But if you keep it for a long time, you will lose it. This is an eternal truth.
This time, Zuemon missed.
As soon as his right leg took half a step back, the severe pain from the base of the leg made Zuemon's body uncontrollably sluggish for a moment - just now, the base of his right leg was injured by Ogata.
He suffered a very deep wound and has yet to recover.
In a battle of this level, even a momentary mistake can be fatal.
laugh!
The blade penetrated deeply into Soemon's right abdomen, and the blade pushed forward toward Soemon's left abdomen with an indomitable momentum.
However, the blade stopped when it advanced to about the navel of Left and Right Gate.
The same reason why I couldn't cut the commander's head in half just now - the knife didn't work.
The blade was too dull and got caught in the skin and tough muscles.
His stomach was cut in half - this severe pain almost made Zuemon almost lose consciousness.
But this severe pain also aroused the blood of Zuemon.
He knew that with his current ability, he would not be able to catch Ogata, who was currently in extremely abnormal physical condition.
So - he chose to grab something else that he had a better chance of grabbing.
He threw the big naginata aside casually, used all his strength, stretched out his big palm-like hands, and grabbed the blade that was currently inserted into his body, preventing it from leaving his body.
He left, and then, at the highest volume he could reach, he shouted:
"Fire!"
Completing Toyotomi Nobhide's mission is the top priority no matter what - he had already said this to the commander of Division 2 before.
Saemon, who was prepared to realize that his head was accidentally shattered by a stray bullet, had made up his mind - at the very least, Ogata would lose his katana!
The commander of Division 2 has been paying close attention to Uemon's orders.
At present, nearly half of the troops have not been able to regroup.
After hearing Zuemon's firing instructions, the commander of the 2nd division immediately ordered the musketeers who had already formed a gun formation without hesitation:
"Aim at Shura! Fire!"
Click, click, click, click...
A series of flintlock guns were aimed at Ogata, who was still maintaining the posture of cutting the knife into the belly of Ichimon.
--bring it on!
Zuemon yelled viciously in his heart.
——Should I abandon this knife and quickly take that woman to avoid the incoming bullets, or should I stand here stupidly and be beaten into pieces by the bullets!
After yelling like this in his heart, Zuemon put all his body weight on the katana still in his stomach, trying everything he could to prevent Ogata from withdrawing his katana.
Left and right gates were full of anticipation, preparing to watch Ogata abandon the sword and take Isshikika to avoid the incoming barrage.
However……
"Ayi! Go on!"
He suddenly heard a high-pitched shout.
Immediately afterwards, he saw two slender objects, one long and one short, thrown from not far away, crossing two low parabolas, and falling towards Ogata's head.
When these two slender objects fell on Ogata's head, Zuemon finally saw clearly what they were - two blue and gold swords.
Ogata and Zuemon showed the same expression - shocked.
Immediately afterwards, the expressions on the two people's faces changed completely - Ogata's shock turned into joy, and Uchiemon's shock turned into fear.
At the same moment when these two swords were about to hit Ogata's head——
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang...
A dense burst of gunfire exploded like exploding beans.
Countless bullets formed a barrage, whizzing towards Ogata.
A large number of bullets hit the ground, stirring up clouds of dust and shrouding the figures of Ogata and others.
The subsequent bullets disappeared into the dust and pierced towards the position where Ogata had been standing just now.
The imaginary sound of bullets entering flesh... could only be heard from the direction where Left and Right Gate were standing.
What came from Ogata... was the sound of metal and iron clashing together, and the weird sound of something being struck down.
All the bullets that could be fired were fired at once.
Everyone, led by Team 2, waited eagerly for the dust to clear with anticipation and a bit of fear in their eyes.
Before the dust had cleared, they were waiting... a sigh with mixed emotions:
"Atachi, thank you... for bringing me a knife again."
call--!
I saw a flash of white light in the dust!
The flashing white light stirred up strong wind pressure, blowing away all the dust around him.
In the scattered dust, two knives, one long and one short, seemed to attract all the surrounding darkness, emitting a cold and dazzling light!
