Hearing Oda Nobunaga's question, the guard who had just drawn the sword raised his eyes and glanced at Oda Nobunaga, and said in a deep voice: "If you were so easy to be killed, would you still be Oda Nobunaga? "
"How will you know if you don't try?" Oda Nobunaga looked at the other party and said confidently.
"What are you waiting for? Now that he has taken action, kill him quickly!" Behind him, Imagawa Yoshimoto shouted loudly.
Indeed, using only Shang Jiuge as his personal guard is a bit too much. Even if Shang Jiuge's swordsmanship is truly unparalleled, his loyalty is very questionable. For example, he seems to have escaped now.
Therefore, Imagawa Yoshimoto also asked a real sword master to escort him on this trip. Originally, he only wanted to be prepared and deal with possible Kaguya attacks.
But now, I didn't expect it to actually come in handy.
The guard turned around, looked at Imagawa Yoshimoto and bowed slightly: "Since Imagawa-sama has given the order, I have no choice but to obey."
With that said, the guard held the sword in his hand and rushed towards Oda Nobunaga quickly. Even though he had traveled a long distance before, his steps were still as light as a swallow.
But Oda Nobunaga stood motionless, quietly watching the opponent coming. It was not until he rushed in front that someone behind Oda Nobunaga also handed out a knife.
This sword happened to be in front of Oda Nobunaga, and also blocked the opponent's inevitable slash.
"Who are you?" The guard looked behind Oda Nobunaga. From beginning to end, Oda Nobunaga did not move at all, showing that he was equally confident in the sword master he was looking for.
"You are a nobody, why should you care?" Behind Oda Nobunaga, the red-armored warrior who had just drawn his sword slowly walked out: "Your Excellency, are you a disciple of Lord Tsukahara Buden?"
"You can confirm my inheritance with just one sword, so I'm not a nobody, so let me tell you my name." The guard looked at the red-armored warrior and said, "The sword in my hand cannot kill a nobody."
"If I can defeat you in this battle, then I will naturally not be a nobody." The red-armored warrior smiled and said: "But if I lose this battle, then there will no longer be me in this world. What’s the point?”
"That makes sense." The guard looked at the red-armored warrior and nodded and said, "My name is Beigu Jiaoqing, and he is the least worthy of mention among Lord Bu Chuan's disciples. This time, I followed my master's orders and came here to protect Imagawa. Yoshimoto-sama, it’s just a matter of war that cannot be controlled by a single warrior. Now in the Battle of Okehazama, Imagawa-sama has already suffered a huge defeat. If that’s the case, why are you still chasing after him and trying to get Imagawa-sama’s possessions? Head?"
"Jiaojun Beigu? It's true that I have never heard of this name before." The red-armored warrior nodded: "You can call me Zuo Liu. In this way, I am not a completely unknown person."
Since the other party informed him of his life first, it was meaningless for Liu to call himself a nobody, so he simply gave his code name.
"Liu? I hope that after this battle is over, I can know your full name." Beigu Jiaoqing smiled. After the laughter, he stepped forward with his sword and suddenly launched a slash at Liu at an unpredictable angle. .
This slash was from bottom to top, with a tricky angle and extremely fast speed. Even blocking it was extremely difficult, but Liu smiled slightly: "Master Bu Chuan's swordsmanship should not stop here."
Saying this, he stepped forward with his sword. At that moment, the two people's sword blades collided with each other extremely delicately. It was obviously not the same move, but in the end it was an extremely exquisite disassembly. At that moment, the two people The sword in his hand has collided several times, but he has not gained any benefit from the opponent's hand.
And Oda Nobunaga finally stopped advancing, but stood there, watching the wonderful performance of these two swordsmen. On the other side, Imagawa Yoshimoto originally wanted to escape, but saw Oda Nobunaga's figure , could not help but secretly gritted his teeth, pretended to be calm and sat down in front of the broken wood behind him, and began to wait for the outcome of this battle.
Because there is no point in escaping at this time, it is too difficult to escape in the barrel. This has been proved before. Of course, on the other hand, the two samurai under the daimyo can also be regarded as fighting on his behalf.
In the battle between Okehazama, there is no doubt that Oda Nobunaga defeated Imagawa Yoshimoto, but this battle between the samurai of both sides can be said to be a new contest.
It was even said that the winner would have the opportunity to directly take the loser's head, which gave Imagawa Yoshimoto some hope.
In the center of the battlefield, the speed of the sword fight between the two people began to get faster and faster, but the two people were almost mirror images. Every time the sword fell, the other person blocked and blocked it just right, so that it looked dangerous. Surrounded by life, but in the end both of them were safe and sound.
After all, when swordsmanship has evolved to its extreme, it is really the same as dancing.
"A disciple of Tsukahara Buden has such a skill, so what kind of state will Tsukahara Buden himself have?" Oda Nobunaga was really concentrating on admiring the duel in front of him: "I heard that I Even General Ashikaga Yoshiki once learned spearmanship and swordsmanship from Tsukahara Fuden, and I am really curious about what his own swordsmanship will be like."
"Probably this is the highest swordsmanship in Japan at present." Kinoshita Tokichiro, who was standing aside, nodded and said, "But Tsukahara Buden is probably over seventy years old now. It's a miracle that he didn't die. Even if he holds the I'm afraid he's just a bad old man."
"On the contrary, the two people in front of me are both in their prime of life. The Beigu Jiaojiao has obviously obtained the true inheritance of Tsukahara Buden. And although ours is mostly self-taught, his swordsmanship has also been improved. It has almost reached the pinnacle of Japanese swordsmanship."
"This battle between the two will probably go down in history together with Ozama."
"The premise is that they and we can survive." Oda Nobunaga said this suddenly and abruptly.
Even Kinoshita Tokichiro did not understand what Oda Nobunaga meant for a while, and Oda Nobunaga did not continue to pester him, but looked in front of him and quickly added: "The party should be arriving soon, I I really want to know which one is better between China’s supreme swordsmanship and our Japanese swordsmanship.”
"If Fang Bie takes action, our samurai will be defeated. At present, I don't want to see such a result." Kinoshita Tokichiro said: "I don't know how many sword masters you have prepared, but at least one thing I have It is clear that Japan’s Sword Master is not someone who can just fish out a lot of them.”
"Yes." Oda Nobunaga nodded: "The Japanese sword masters are indeed not good enough to get a lot of them."
"Let's see the result of this battle first, otherwise everything else will be empty talk."
Kinoshita Tokichiro nodded and continued to focus on looking in front of him.
Whether it is Oda Nobunaga or Kinoshita Tokichiro, they are all experts in the use of swords. However, due to various reasons, or limitations of talent or energy, they are unable to polish their swords to perfection. After all, life is not just about knives and swords.
Only assassins can work with swords all day long, but even assassins still have their own daily necessities.
As for the battle between Beigu Jiaoqing and Yanagi, the two of them were dancing on the tip of the sword almost every moment. The coordination between them was so exquisite that it even made people feel that the two of them had practiced it thousands of times before they had such a tacit understanding. .
But Oda Nobunaga and Kinoshita Tokichiro both felt chills running down their spines, because they knew clearly that if they were on the field, they would be able to judge the best handling methods and strategies in the blink of an eye. Only in this way can this dance of death be continued.
But it is no surprise that both of them understand one thing - that is, they will never be able to survive now and continue this dance of death.
In the next moment, Beigu Jiaoqing suddenly jumped back and withdrew from the battle group of two people.
"How many times have you experienced real sword duels?" Jiaoqing Beigu asked.
"Not much." Liu looked at Beigu Jiaoqing and said calmly.
"But your sword is really stable." Beigu Jiaoqing praised.
"It's just more practice. I don't think you can find a good enough teacher. You can only make up for it with more practice." Liu shook his head and said.
"If we continue to fight like this, how long do you think we will have to fight?" Beigu Jiaoqing looked at Liu and said.
Liu looked at the man in front of him: "There is no doubt that it will be a long time."
"But we don't have such time." Beigu Jiaoqing said calmly.
"So?" Liu said looking at him.
In fact, what Professor Beigu said is true. The first round of the competition between the two people was actually about the speed and accuracy of each other's moves. To put it bluntly, it was a competition of basic skills.
However, this round of basic skills competition between two people is basically a half-match ending. If the fight continues like this, we must first rule out the extreme situation where I can fight with you like this for a day, but at least two people can fight for a long time.
But this is the battlefield of pursuit, not a separate duel. Now there is no time to purely enjoy the fun of the battle. Instead, we should win this battle as soon as possible and put an end to the result of this pursuit.
"So, I have a sword, which is the secret sword passed down to me by Master Bu Chuan. If you can catch this sword, then I will surrender. But if you can't catch it, then maybe you will die. ." Beigu Jiaoqing said seriously.
Liu nodded.
The so-called secret sword is a secret sword technique that has not been taught. If Master Beigu really learned this secret sword from Tsukahara Buden, it would prove that he had indeed obtained the true transmission of Tsukahara Buden, and It's not like what he said, he is just the most incompetent among the many disciples of Tsukahara Buden.
"Since I have the opportunity to see Master Bu Chuan's secret sword, it will be a feast for my eyes. However, there are still so many spectators. Are you really not worried about leaking this secret sword?" Liu Jingping asked.
Of course, there is also one point, that is, if you have never seen a sword technique before, the probability of not being able to catch it will be very high. But in such a real sword duel, where there is a thin line between life and death, if you can't catch it, you may die.
"You don't have to worry about this. This sword has been used in front of many people, but only when you really stand in front of this sword can you realize the horror of this sword." Beigu Jiaoqing looked at Liu and said .
"That's good, let me ask what the name of this sword is. If I die, I can at least know what the sword that killed me is." Liu nodded and said.
In fact, the name of the move is really not something that should be concealed.
In other words, no matter how skilled the Japanese swordsmen are, but to be honest, the names are really more handsome than the others, such as "Ertian First Class", "Yuan Ming First Class" and so on.
"The name of this sword is called the Secret Sword: Ichino Taito." Beigu Jiaoqing said with a serious face, almost word for word, as if he wanted Liu to understand the name of this move clearly.
And just when he finished speaking the last word, the handle of the knife in his hand had turned over silently.
Immediately, a straight sword stabbed towards Liu.
In fact, for Japan's tachi, chopping is a more suitable move, while thrusting is not so effective.
But Beigu Jiaoqing's sword was really too fast.
Faster than any previous knife.
His entire body had almost turned into an afterimage, and Liu's first feeling about the target he was targeting was even more terrifying.
At that moment, almost his entire mind was wrapped up in the sword, so much so that his hands and feet were so stiff that he could not move. He only watched the sword in front of him get faster and faster, and then reached right in front of him.
Am I going to die?
At this moment, this was the only thought in Liu's mind.
And in the next moment, a person suddenly appeared in front of him. He just calmly used his sword and easily deflected the opponent's inevitable sword, allowing it to pass through his side.
"What a secret sword move, Ichi no Tai Sword." Fang Bie looked back at Bei Gujiaoqiang who failed with the sword: "Sword skills that can use the sword energy to guide the mind are rare even in China. I can only say that you Japanese people I still came up with a lot of good stuff through my own research.”
"Why do you want to interfere in our duel?" Behind Fang Bie, Liu subconsciously said.
Even though he knew that if Fang Bie didn't take action, he would have been penetrated by the other party's sword.
But out of dignity as a warrior, he was unwilling to accept the result of such interference in the duel.
"If it were normal times, I would definitely not care if you were killed with a knife." Fang Bie said calmly: "But now is not an honest duel between warriors. In fact, it doesn't matter who wins or loses between the two of you."
"This is a battlefield, and nearly 10,000 corpses have fallen here."
"The outcome of the duel between you two is directly related to the life and death of the two daimyo."
"Then now, I can't just sit back and watch."
Saying this, Fang Bi looked at Imagawa Yoshimoto and said, "You think so."
"Mr. Tsukahara Fuden?"
