The next day.

As soon as the sky was dawn, Araki, who had always had a regular schedule, came outside the inn.

Coincidentally, he was about to go forward and knock on the door, but the door had already opened on its own. A group of Iron Country warriors headed by a knife came out one after another.

"Old Araki, we are ready."

"So, please come with me."

The communication location was arranged at the No. 15 training ground.

This is an ordinary training ground with a not-so-large area. It is flat and tidy, with no mountains or water, no forest or beast. It is not enough to say that it is a super-large arena.

The reason I chose this is to try to eliminate interference from the external environment and focus more on the strength of both sides.

It also made the people of Iron Country lose without any excuses.

...

...

After taking the sword and others to the No. 15 training ground, they found that there were already ten ninjas warming up here.

"Ahem!"

Araki coughed lightly, and the ten people stopped their movements when they heard the sound and gathered together. They looked at the samurai of the Iron Country, curious, fighting spirit, indifference, and the only thing they didn't have was worry.

"These are the communication personnel we selected this time by Mizuki. If there is no problem... then let's start now?"

“We have no problem.”

I looked at these ninjas in the Hidden Village of Mizu, and found that there were also big and small ones. However, compared to the age range of samurai who were at least 15 years old, the lower age limit of ninjas seemed to be a bit too exaggerated, and there were even a few people here who were obviously still children.

However, he also understood that the growth curve of ninjas is very different from that of samurai, and age does not necessarily have any connection with strength. Therefore, he just took a few more glances and did not raise any objections.

"Okay, then..."

Araki jumped onto a thick wooden stake, sat cross-legged, and shouted to the two groups below, "I have already mentioned the rules of this exchange and exchange yesterday, and I will emphasize it again today. The purpose of the competition is to exchange sword skills, so don't use abilities that are not included in the swordsmanship field. All ninjutsu except the instantaneous body technique are listed here! If you use it accidentally, you will be immediately denied. Do you understand?"

"clear!"

Everyone responded in unison.

"Is this...a bit too strict? Some physical habits are difficult to change for a while..."

Asked with a knife beside him.

For those who have experienced many battles, some reactions are that they have already formed something that they have muscle memory. If they want to deliberately avoid it in battle, they will disrupt their rhythm.

"It's okay, this is a swordsmanship exchange after all, so naturally the purer the better."

Araki waved his hand, "So, who will come first, Lord with the Sword?"

"Yaoyuki, go."

After the words with a knife fell, a thin man, who looked about twenty, took a step forward from the samurai team.

"Yansheng Yixin, an intermediate samurai in the Iron Country, please give me advice."

"Your Excellency, aren't you going to be A?"

Araki looked at the samurai Yagyu wearing only thin training suits and couldn't help but turn his head and ask.

You should know that except for a few people, most of the warriors in the Iron Country are dressed as astronauts, with heavy armor covering themselves to be airtight.

"Just just practice sword skills, there is no need to wear armor. Piercing armor will affect the completion of sword skills."

He shook his head with a knife.

"All right."

Seeing that the other party insisted, Araki stopped saying more, "Since he is an intermediate samurai, if he doesn't kill him, you will do this first game!"

"yes!"

The young man without eyebrows responded coldly and walked forward, "There will be no more slashed in the middle of the fog, and the peach land will not be cut off."

"You can let go of the fight. With me and the Lord Taoist as the referee, you don't have to worry about any irreparable consequences."

After Araki gave them a reassurance, he waved his hand and said, "Let's start!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yanagi immediately lowered his waist and hips, held the hilt with one hand, and lowered his body as low as possible.

bass!

With a light sound, silver light burst out, and his whole body appeared directly in front of Zabubuzhan like teleportation. The sword in his hand was cut in a ring, and the blue chakra was wrapped around the blade, as if a diffuse wave was about to cut the enemy in half.

[Yao Shengliu·Drawing the sword and flashing]!

bite!

With a crisp sound, the knife handle was held back without slashing, and the half-sheathed blade was slanted in front of him, just blocking the opponent's attack. The deep ghost aura with red purple was also entangled on the weapon, entangling with the opponent's chakra.

"Good sword drawing."

He vaguely said half a sentence from his mouth covered by a bandage, and then he exerted force on his arm and continued to pick up!

The two sharp blades that were stalemate suddenly became different. Liu Sheng was actually driven away by a sword without slashing, and he took three or four steps in a row as if he couldn't stand.

It is obvious that among the two, he is the one with a bigger physique! But he is completely unable to compare with each other in terms of strength!

Many of the samurai who were watching the battle exclaimed.

When he finally stabbed his body with the blade, the sharp blade wrapped in ghost energy had stopped at his jaw. Going further, it was his deadly throat.

"I... admit defeat."

Although the fight lasted only one round, Yagyu Yixin was already sweating profusely. He felt that the color of chakra wrapped around the opponent's weapon was rare, and at a glance, he would be filled with all kinds of crying and killing sounds, and he could not concentrate at all.

The first game ended so quickly, and I never expected it with a knife.

Moreover, in this game, Taodi's re-destruction did not show any excessive power, speed or sword skills.

Even if it was the sword that took off Yagyu, it could not be said to be a crushing force, it was just a bit unexpected.

So he was very dissatisfied with Yagyu Ichixin's performance, so he immediately called out the next samurai, "Nakajo, go!"

Hideta Nakajo is also an intermediate samurai, but compared with Yagyu Yixin before, his figure is bigger in all aspects.

The idea of ​​carrying a knife is very simple. Don’t you have great power? Then I will find you an opponent with greater power.

I don’t believe that I can’t take you!

The burly Hideta Nakajo's style of playing was completely different from that of Yanagi Yixin. He raised the Tai Knife with both arms and waved it down hard: "Cut the board!"

Buzz —

The thick blade swept open the air and made a dull sound. There were even white air waves visible to the naked eye on both sides of the blade. It can be seen that the force of this attack is absolutely not comparable to before.

but!

Even so, he did not get any advantage in front of the sharp blade, which was wrapped in purple ghost energy.

"Ghost Sword Technique·Iron Cutting Style!"

clang!!!

The two blades fought, and the two retreated at the same time, but if they didn't kill, they immediately waved their arms again.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The ghost energy wrapped around his sword suddenly transformed into independent qi blades, shooting towards the opposite Nakajo Hideta with a storm.

"Ghost Sword Technique·Storm Style!"
Chapter completed!
