Chapter 11 Thunder
Riden took the knife off the knife holder on the wall, and it felt very heavy when he started. Although it was of length, the quality was far beyond the scope of the sword. Riden tried his best to pull it out, but it was only one-third of it.
Although only part of it was sheathed, the reason for its extreme heaviness was discovered by Ruiden. The design of its blade was completely different from that of other swords. Ordinary long swords have arc-surface blades, with extremely sharp edges, but the back of this knife is extremely wide, and the blade is not arc-surface, but a triangle-shaped section. Therefore, the thickness of this long sword is amazing, so it is naturally much heavier.
“There is an incision above the scabbard that can be pulled out from there.”
Following Koshiro's words, Ruiden quickly discovered the secret of the scabbard. It turned out that there were movable openings on top of the scabbard of this length, and the long sword could be pulled out from this place with just using force. Ruiden pulled the sword upward without hesitation, and finally saw the full picture of the long sword.
"The blade is 155 cm long, the thick back is straight and the body is gradually narrowing, and the chaotic blade is broken purple. This is my father's last work before his death. The blade is not sharp, so he severely chops and breaks the armor."
Koshiro stood up, staring firmly at the sword, his eyes full of nostalgia.
"My father once said that the straight and thick long-blade sword was his idea when he was a teenager. Unfortunately, he failed to break the doubts and did not hit the knife until he died. It was a matter of worry. Although this knife is not inferior to the good fast knife, and is even comparable to the big fast knife in some aspects, it will have great flaws in the battle. Are you sure you want to choose him?"
Ruiden looked at the long sword carefully, and the more he looked, the more he felt happy.
"I'll pick this one! Master also said that the sword technique I practice is an indomitable way of attack, so this knife that attaches great importance to slashing is the most suitable for me. Moreover, I also hope to realize the master's long-cherished wish and prove to the people of the world that this idea is correct!"
"Is that true, since you like it, take it away. Remember that the knife is not only your tool, but also your partner, treat it well."
"Yes, Master!"
Ruiden struggled to insert the long sword back, and looked at the scabbard that was as straight as black ink, and his heart was inspiring. In fact, Ruiden didn't say that there was another important reason to choose this sword. This long sword with a straight blade body reminded Ruiden of the Tang sword in China in his previous life, which made him find a trace of the past ties in the world of One Piece.
"By the way, Master, what is the name of this knife?"
"Ah, it hasn't been named yet, but I thought of a good name."
"Well? Why is Master so leisurely today?"
Ruiden was very surprised. Koshiro was a standard difficulty in naming him, so why was he so enthusiastic today? But he saw that Koshiro had already made sure of his name and seemed to have already confirmed the name of Rushiro's sword.
"I thought about it before, but today I seem to be unpredictable. I named it 'Thunder' for my teacher."
"Thunder, Thunder..." Riden looked at the long sword and repeated softly, and a sharp light as sharp as a blade appeared in his eyes.
...
That night, Riden sat in his room, carefully studying the book with the cowhide cover.
"This sword technique is really weird."
Although I already know the nature of this swordsmanship, it still makes Riden unbelievable after he really starts to learn.
With the careful enlightenment of T Peng En and Koshiro in the past and their own hard work, the basic skills of Ruiden's swordsmanship can be said to be very solid. Therefore, the sword's prick, chop, and other actions are easy to use, and the steps and technical movements learned are all back and forth.
But this swordsman is completely different. If the doctrine that traditional swordsman believes in is that swordsmen constantly compete with each other in the battle between them, and seeking opportunities to kill with one blow. Then this swordsman is to keep attacking, force the opponent through quick combination of swings and huge power, so that the opponent can't handle it under such pressure and eventually lose.
The more he looked, the more frightened he became. He slowly became addicted to this extremely arrogant swordsmanship, and gradually entered an enlightenment. When he returned to Qingming Festival, he found that the pages had been turned, and two words were faintly revealed on the back of the book.
"Is the 'crazy sword'? It deserves its name!"
Reeden closed the pages of the book, took Jinglei into a meditation state, and carefully recalled the previous insight.
The next morning, after a brief conversation with Koshiro, Ruiden walked to the back mountain skillfully and prepared for today's physical training. Before he could get to the place, he heard Turo's slightly exaggerated screams.
"Wow! What a long knife! Show me!"
The Tulang ran to Ruiden quickly. Before Ruiden could agree, he took Jinglei out of Ruiden's back and put it in his hand to examine it carefully.
"Wow, it's so heavy! How do you take out such a knife?"
"There is a movable opening on the scabbard, just take it out directly from the opening part."
"I'll try it, wow, it's so good!"
Tulang seemed to have discovered the treasure and was happily fiddling with it. Seeing it, Ruiden was frightened, afraid that this kid would ruin his thunder.
"By the way, my father asked me to give you this."
"Um?"
Halfway through the play, Tulang suddenly thought of something, took out two pieces of paper from his arms and handed it to Ruiden. Ruiden took it in confusion, turned it on and saw it, and was stunned.
"Sword drawing technique and sword shooting."
Ruiden couldn't help but read it out loud. After reading it carefully, he realized that the original paper clearly recorded the knowledge of the sword drawing technique and explained the skills of sword shooting.
The so-called sword drawing technique, also known as Juhe Slash, is a technique of quickly drawing swords and sneak attacks. The sword-slashing technique is an extremely powerful sword drawing technique in the inheritance of the Hanzang family. The swordsman exerts a powerful and directional force on the hilt of the sword through an instant and powerful sword drawing action, allowing the sword to fly out of the scabbard automatically and quickly attack the enemy.
This move not only effectively solved Ryden's sword drawing problem, but also was very powerful. The most important thing was that he was very handsome. This made Ryden unable to help but think that he would not exercise and practice sword shooting quickly.
Ruiden tried hard to shake his head, put this idea behind his mind, and called Tulang to start today's physical practice.
The practice ended soon. In the evening, after the two brothers easily caught a wild boar for dinner, Ruiden could not suppress his desire and immediately thundered and began to practice. Turo also looked at him curiously.
"According to the paper, I can't carry the knife on my body, I can only tie it to my belt."
"Hey, brother, your scabbard has been dragged to the ground!"
"Shut up Turo, I'll try it first, you'll see the power later!"
Ruiden also knew that the problem of mopping the floor with too long a knife, but these problems can be solved. The most important thing now is to try the sword shooting.
"Step the sword!"
Following the instructions, Riden held his hand on the hilt of the sword, then pulled it out with force, and quickly let it go. He saw that the thunder was quickly pulled out, and then...stopped in the halfway position.
The atmosphere began to become a little awkward.
"Hahahaha! Hahaha!"
Looking at the funny scene in front of him, Turo rolled around the ground with a smile, but to be honest, the power of this sword slash was really amazing, and it could instantly make Turo lose the ability to fight.
Ruiden's face was a little unhappy, but he calmly analyzed the situation just now.
"Stop laughing, I'll be silly laughing for a while. I was too weak just now. If I try again this time, I will definitely succeed."
After saying that, he took the thunder back into the scabbard, stabilized his posture, took deep breaths, and made all preparations.
"Step the sword!"
This time, Riden significantly increased the strength of his hands and slowed down the time of shrinking his hands. This time, the speed of thunder being unsheathed was indeed much faster, one-third, half, two-thirds, completely unsheathed!
I saw that under the bonfire and the setting sun, thunder flew out of the scabbard with a shining cold light, like real lightning! Then... it fell heavily to the ground and almost cut Ryden's feet.
"Puff, hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"
The Turo, who just suppressed his smile, sat up from the ground completely collapsed after witnessing such an "amazing" sword-blade, rolling all over the ground, using hands and feet, making unknown sounds in his mouth. The power of the sword-blade was indeed amazing, and it could actually make the Turo who was "attacked" for the second time even more "injured".
The night came in this peaceful atmosphere, and Tulang's mouth was completely laughing. I was afraid that it would take two days to rest to return to normal. It was really a joy that led to sorrow.
Ruiden returned to the gym and came to the living room. He saw Koshiro drinking tea seemingly waiting for him. He briefly explained the process of practicing sword shooting and slashing, and also expressed his confusion.
"Haha, it's not easy to get started with a high-level sword skill, let alone thunder is still an extremely long sword. If you want to truly exert its power, you still have a long way to go."
"Yes, Master. So, from what aspects should I start practicing?"
"Riden, I ask Zhan Wu to teach you the sword-shooting. The most direct purpose is to help you solve the problem of the thunder that is too long and difficult to draw the sword. Therefore, you do not need to consider the power of the sword-shooting in the next practice, but to consider more about how to quickly enter the combat state."
"Yes, my disciple knows that I am too ambitious."
After hearing Koshiro's words, Reiden suddenly realized. Although the thunder can be taken out from the upper part of the scabbard, it is too slow and is very unfavorable in emergency combat. Therefore, the first benefit of shooting a sword to him should be to draw the sword quickly.
"The control of the power and power of the opponent's hands is very strict when shooting the sword. Next, you need to supplement this practice when practicing physically. If you don't understand something, ask me again."
"Yes, I'll remember, thank you Master!"
"Haha, you and my master and apprentice, don't have to do this, go back early and rest."
"Disciple, good night, Master."
"Good night."
...
In the following days, Ruiden practiced the crazy sword for one day, took Tulang to practice physical fitness and sword shooting for one day, and occasionally helped Keishiro to guide the students' courses. In this repetitive but not boring, fulfilling and tiring day, the year passed in a flash...
