Sanako's attacks were fast and dense, and he flexibly used his "length of hand" advantage.
The attack distance of a 1.8 meter long naginata is naturally higher than that of a bamboo sword with a total length of just over 1 meter.
Sanako changed her steps quickly. When Aoto advanced, she retreated, always keeping a distance from Aoto: "Her naginata can hit Aoto, but Aoto's bamboo sword cannot touch her."
In this kind of open area with almost no obstacles, it is easier for people with "longer hands" to gain an advantage - this is a lesson learned by previous people with countless blood and tears.
Even with Qingden's current skills, he has accidentally exposed himself to danger several times against Sanako, who currently has the advantage in "attack distance".
Although the frequency of Sanako's attacks was so dense that there was no room to take a breath...but the hundred secrets eventually became sparse.
Qingteng looked at the brief gap between Sanako's two attacks, and his body turned into an afterimage. By the time the afterimage condensed into a concrete entity, Qingteng's body had already reached the place where the sword in his palm could hit Sanako. .
Although Sanako struggled to maintain the distance between him and Aoto, he could not withstand Aoto's explosive lower body power, which was "leading the way".
The blade of the sword slashed at Sanako at a tricky angle.
Sanako's soft waist, as if it had no bones, was bent again with incredible strength and angle, and Qingto's bamboo sword sadly missed Sanako's body again.
The blade of the sword struck the air, and only the tip of the sword lightly touched Sanako's skirt.
Qingden and Sanako passed by each other.
Qingteng took advantage of the momentum of the cross and ran forward for a few steps, then stopped there and turned to look at Sanako. At the same time, Sanako also stopped and turned to look at Qingteng.
"Drink!"
Although the volume of Sanako's shout was slightly lacking, the momentum was quite strong.
Sanako used "top tease" this time.
The willow-leaf-like blade slashed at Qingdeng's leg from bottom to top.
This time, Qingdeng did not retreat to dodge, or simply blocked the attack with his blade.
He spread his legs leisurely and raised the bamboo sword held high above his head with both hands.
At the moment when the naginata was about to hit his right leg, Aomori's half-closed eyes suddenly widened.
The bamboo sword raised above the head was slashed down with the force of Mount Tai!
Snapped--!
The knives and swords stirred up the wind and dust.
The bamboo sword flew like a rainbow in mid-air, accurately sealing the blade of the naginata.
This is not over yet.
At this moment, Sanako felt one huge force after another, passing like waves along the blade to her palms, and then from her palms to her whole body.
There was a burning sensation in the palm of my hand, as if it was on fire.
Since he copied the talent "Bear's Waist" that "has extraordinary waist explosive power", and his body's core strength has been greatly enhanced, Qingdeng's shortcomings in "strength" have been greatly corrected.
Qingdeng is no longer the "agile swordsman" he was before.
He has now evolved into a "swordsman with both strength and agility".
As a woman, how could Sanako withstand Qingto's great strength?
Sanako, who almost couldn't hold the naginata, clenched her teeth tightly and tightened the muscles of her waist and arms, and finally managed to protect the weapon in her hand.
However, even though he barely let go of the naginata, the numbness lingering on his palms lingered for a long time.
Sanako, who wanted to buy time to regroup, tapped her feet lightly on the ground, trying to distance herself from Qingto.
Qingden could tell at a glance that his "power breaking force" just now had hurt Sanako.
How could Qingdeng let this hard-won pursuit opportunity, which could expand his victory in one go, slip through his fingers?
Crack!
Qingdeng calculated the distance accurately, kicked off his back foot, and leaped into the air without a run-up.
The body that flew out in a parabola like a cannonball pressed against Sanako like a carnivorous beast with a knife attached.
Sanako, who had experienced Qingteng's power and knew that a head-on confrontation with Qingteng was simply seeking death, did not forcefully accept Qingteng's attack.
Her soft yet muscular waist twisted again, relying on her body skills to narrowly pass Qingdeng.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the initiative in this discussion has been completely controlled by Qingdeng.
All the attacks Sanako tried with all his strength were ineffective.
Either he was dodged by Qingden, or he was easily blocked by Qingden.
On the contrary, Qingteng's bamboo sword has put Sanako in danger, forcing Sanako to be particularly embarrassed.
Facing such a dangerous situation... Sanako's eyes narrowed slightly.
Her beautiful eyes were slightly tilted, and she glanced at the river that was only 5 steps away from her... A trace of thinking rose in the depths of her eyes.
This look of thinking is fleeting.
Suddenly, Sanako suddenly dragged her naginata and rushed straight into the river.
Wow, wow...
Sanako's pair of clogs had gotten rid of the clogs that were in the way when they started fighting, so now her little feet wearing only a pair of white socks kicked the water droplets until they reached the very center of the river, and then slowly stopped.
The water was about 30 centimeters deep, covering Sanako's calves, soaking Sanako's stockings and culottes.
——Miss Sanako, what are you doing?
Sanako's strange behavior when he suddenly ran into the river cast a layer of confusion on Qingden's face.
It's impossible to get too hot from playing. Why don't you jump into the river to cool off?
"...Tachibana-kun."
While Qingden was still confused, Sanako, standing in the middle of the river, said in a deep voice.
"Next, I'm going to use the last...and most powerful trick I have at my disposal."
"Are you willing to accept my move?"
"If you can catch it...this battle will be my defeat."
After saying that, Sanako lowered the naginata in her hand and immersed the slender blade like a willow leaf into the river water.
Looking at Sanako's actions, Qingden raised his eyebrows and let out a low exclamation:
"Water gull flow?"
Shuiou Liu - the full name is "Shuiou Liu Juhe Swordsmanship", a very famous swordsmanship school.
During the Warring States Period, Ryuzu Sangen and Ichiemon learned the fortune-telling sword technique and the Yamabushi monk's diamond staff technique from their father Sangen Saigu from an early age.
When he was older, he went to various places in Japan to practice. When he was practicing for the 20th year, the image of a gull gliding and flying on the water suddenly appeared in his mind. Therefore, he had an epiphany and integrated what he had learned throughout his life to create his own swordsmanship school.
To commemorate this divine enlightenment, Sanma and Ichimon named their school "Mizugullyu".
Although he has a cute name like "Mizugull", his real killing skills are known as "Iai Swordsmanship". It is notoriously lethal.
Although neither Aomori nor "Original Tachibana Aomori" have ever seen the swordsman who uses the water gull flow, they have heard many rumors about the water gull flow.
Regarding Mizuo-ryu, there has been an argument among the people that is not true or false: Mizuo-ryu swordsmanship must be used in water to achieve its maximum power.
The reason for this is that Shuiou Liu has a secret technique like this: sink the sword body into the water, imitate the movement of a water bird flying into the sky, and then lift the sword upwards.
The attack is fast and fierce, making it hard to guard against.
"It's not a stream of gulls."
As soon as Qingden's exclamation came to an end, Sanako said calmly.
"It seems that you, Tachibana-kun, have mistakenly believed the ridiculous rumor about Shuiouliu."
"Rumors?" Qingdeng was stunned, "Does Shuiou Liu not have the secret skill of 'hiding a sword in the water'?"
Sanako nodded.
"'Suiou-ryu is a swordsman specializing in water fighting', 'Suiou-ryu has a secret technique of hiding swords in water'... these are all rumors."
"The above-mentioned rumors are all nonsense made up by people who do not understand martial arts and mistakenly believe that there must be a close connection between 'Shuiou Liu' and 'Shuiou'."
"'Water Gull Flow' has nothing to do with 'Water Gull'."
"Ah...is that so..."
——So it turns out that Mizuo Ryu doesn’t have such a secret skill...
Qingdeng always thought that the real "hidden sword in the water" was quite cool... When he learned that such a secret skill did not exist, he felt inexplicably a little regretful.
However, at this time, Sanako suddenly said something that made Qingto's face filled with astonishment:
"Although 'Shuiouliu' does not have any sword technique of 'hiding the sword in the water'... but this trick does not exist."
Speaking of this, Sanako paused.
After being silent for a while, as if she was brewing her emotions, she said in a serious voice, sonorously and forcefully:
"The swordsman who can use this move...is right in front of Tachibana-kun."
"When I was practicing martial arts on this river bank, I accidentally got inspiration from the movements of water birds diving into the water to catch food, and rushing out of the water with fish in their mouths, and created a full range of martial arts techniques."
"I named this technique: 'Water Reverse'!"
"This is my unique skill... and it's also the last trick I have left that I haven't used against you yet."
"If this move fails to knock you down...then I will be at my wits' end and surrender."
"Water bird..." Surprise couldn't be suppressed and burst out from Qingdeng's eyes.
I recall in my mind the scene of waterbirds I witnessed rushing into the river to hunt for food when I first arrived at this river bank.
Sanako is actually good at water fighting... This is the first time Qingto knows about this.
At this moment, Sanako's eyes on Qingden were calm, but the determination contained in them was very strong.
Qingdeng absorbed the thoughts that had flown away from the sky above the river bank.
He could already feel Sanako's flaming will from Sanako's eyes now.
It would be rude not to respond solemnly.
Without any unnecessary worries - Qingden nodded vigorously to Sanako with a solemn expression.
"...I understand, I accept your challenge."
Qingdeng held the bamboo sword, walked slowly to the river, pulled up the legs of his culottes, and jumped into the river with a "pop" sound.
The water splashed, and the sunlight hitting the waves danced briskly.
Wow... Wow... Wow...
Qingden kicked the water under his feet and quickly walked towards the center of the river, towards the opposite side of Sanako.
The bamboo sword he held in his hand, hanging naturally at his side, cut through the water with his footsteps, leaving a white mark in the clear river.
The closer you are to the center of the river, the lower the riverbed and the deeper the water.
After a while, when Qingden stopped as he arrived at his destination, the tinkling water had reached his ankles and touched his calves.
Men and women on both sides of the river faced each other with a distance of 3 meters.
Sanako stood sideways, allowing Qingto to see only the right half of her body.
The knife head hidden in the river water appears like an erratic cloud and smoke under the reflection of the water light.
Sanako's feet are veritable lotus feet. Calculated by modern foot size, Sanako's feet are only size 36 at most.
Such a small pair of feet can support her body to stand firm in the turbulent water that can easily wash away mice... Sanako's basic martial arts skills are profound, and the strength of her "cat turning talent" can be seen A spot.
Inspired by the martial arts of "bird hunting"... Qingdeng has never been exposed to similar moves before.
A strong "sense of unknown" surrounded Qingdeng.
After thinking again and again, Qingdeng held the bamboo sword steady in front of him in a mid-section stance.
He decided to take the move in the middle section, which was the least prone to mistakes.
…
Blah blah blah...
…
Chirp chirp… chirp chirp…
…
Got it——! Got it——!
…
From the moment the two of them got into their respective stances, there was no longer any extraneous sound in the world except for the sound of water flowing, the chirping of birds, and the chirping of cicadas.
It seemed like a long time passed.
The essence is quite short-lived.
It was just another flying bird catching a river fish from the water next to it.
"Drink ah ah!"
A sweet cry broke the silence on the river bank and startled countless forest birds.
That was the sound Sanako made.
Almost at the same time, Qingdeng's body also made a sound.
Sanako, who happened to be standing upstream of the river and was walking along the river, passed through the 3-meter gap with lightning speed. The blade of the naginata poked out of the river like it was trying to split the sky, and it was drawn from bottom to top. A straight water line, reaching Qingdeng's shoulders!
This straight water line flying out from the river with majestic momentum is like a water dragon rising into the sky and soaring into the sky!
Qingdeng's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pupil.
Sanako's sword...is full of explosive power!
The superb strength and speed brought by the powerful explosive power caused chills and goosebumps all over Qingden's body.
Qingden could tell at just one glance: Sanako's "Water Rebellion" move, like Souji's "Hiraishan Sandanju", were stunts that no mortal could even learn!
At this moment of lightning, Qingdeng's "Gathering God", "Eagle Eye", and "Seeing through" activated instantly!
The biggest difficulty with Sanako's attack was the waves of water caused by the naginata she raised!
Under the sunlight, the water foam reflecting the crystal light dazzled people's eyes, making it difficult to distinguish the location and direction of the attack.
At this moment, Qingdeng can be said to have used "Concentration" to "enhance concentration", "Eagle Eye" to "enhance dynamic vision", and "See Through" to "enhance the sense of space" to the extreme.
With the blessing of these three talents, Qingto, who concentrated all his attention on "observation", finally saw clearly the path of this naginata sword with indomitable momentum in the flying waves at the critical moment!
Suddenly, Qingdeng suddenly squatted down, lowered his center of gravity and tilted his upper body forward. Then, the bamboo sword in his hand raised a gust of wind!
Under the clear sky, the wind and water are tightly intertwined!
This fierce battle did not last long——
Snapped--!
The huge muffled sound covered all the sounds in this space.
Sanako's naginata was knocked away.
The naginata fell heavily to the ground, causing Sanako's entire upper body to open wide!
Sanako knew that he was in an extremely dangerous state at this time...but there was nothing he could do to save himself!
At this moment, when Qingteng used brute force to knock off Sanako's "water reflex", he quickly changed the position of the blade.
The tip of the sword was aimed at Sanako's fair neck...and then shot out in the air!
Sanako subconsciously closed her eyes...but the pain did not come in response.
This is natural. After all, this is just a sparring match. There is no way Qingdeng could kill him.
The tip of the bamboo sword stopped steadily 1 inch away from Sanako's throat.
"Miss Sanako, I accept."
After finishing speaking, Qingden put back his bamboo sword, slowly straightened his slightly arched body, and relaxed his muscles and nerves little by little.
Qingden originally thought that according to the agreement just now, after successfully taking over Sanako's "water rebellion", he would win this battle.
But who knows, a sudden change occurred.
Sanako, whose beautiful eyes were wide open, looked straight at Qingden with eyes that seemed out of focus.
This gaze that seemed to have no specific focus seemed to be looking at Qingdeng, but also seemed to be looking at a more distant place.
Surprise, confusion, unwillingness... these emotions emerged one after another on Sanako's pretty face.
When Qingto noticed something strange about Sanako, Sanako lowered his eyes and head——
"Tangerine-kun...please compete with me again!"
It was like a voice forced out of the throat, slightly hoarse.
After saying this, the roaring naginata once again filled Ayoto's field of vision.
"Huh? Miss Sanako, wait..."
There was no time to finish the rest of the words - because if he didn't defend quickly, Sanako's naginata would hit Aitobo's body.
In desperation, Qingdeng had no choice but to set up the bamboo sword again.
Chopping down, lifting up, slashing horizontally... Sanako kicked the river, and poured out fierce attacks towards Qingden as if he didn't want to give his opponent a chance to breathe, nor did he want to give himself a chance to breathe.
Regarding this sudden second battle, Qingdeng did not launch a counterattack, but just defended and dodged.
The reason for this was not because Qingden was tired or unable to fight.
It's because this so-called "second sparring match" is no longer a competition... but a one-sided way for Sanako to vent his emotions!
Sanako's attack looks fierce, but even a layman who knows nothing about martial arts can clearly feel: Sanako's knife path... no, every movement is messy!
If, in the last sparring match, every move of Sanako, whether it was offensive or defensive, was like a neatly arranged "parallel line"... then all of Sanako's current behaviors are... It's like a winding "curve".
Sanako continued to attack crazily...these messy "curves" were organized together into a messy "ball of wool".
Such chaotic movements cannot be called "martial arts".
There is no need to continue this kind of discussion.
"Miss Sanako!"
Qingto shouted to Sanako while he was defending against Sanako's "violent attack".
"Calm down! You are no longer competing in martial arts!"
Even though Aoshito Akatsuki used emotions and reason, and used extremely sincere words... Sanako turned a deaf ear to her.
If a third party were to watch this contest now, they would see a strange scene like this: a man and a woman were chasing each other like a cat and mouse on the river. The man dodges the woman's pursuit, and the clothes on each other's bodies are all wet. He didn't even care about getting wet from the river.
Qingden gradually realized that just simple words could no longer calm Sanako's emotions.
If Sanako is allowed to behave like this again, regardless of his own safety, Qingto is mainly worried that Sanako will hurt himself.
——First try to remove the naginata from Sanako's hand!
Qingdeng made up his mind, took a deep breath, and instantly switched his body and mind back to "combat state".
He stood half a step sideways, avoiding Sanako's front, and stood diagonally in front of her.
call!
Sanako stabbed Aoden with the naginata like a spear.
This kind of chaotic and chaotic movements... there is absolutely no reason why it is unstoppable!
Snapped!
Aoto took advantage of the situation and pushed his bamboo sword forward. The blade drew a semicircle in the air and hit the side of the naginata, knocking it away.
Sanako, who was in a very strange state right now, had lost the flexibility and agility she should have had.
As she slowly brought the knocked-away naginata back in front of her, Aomori took advantage of this opportunity and strode forward!
While ducking in front of Sanako, he loosened the five fingers of his right hand, threw away the bamboo sword in his palm, then reached forward with both palms, restrained Sanako's right wrist with his left hand, and grasped Sanako's left shoulder with his right hand.
"Miss Sanako! Please calm down!"
Aintome originally wanted to use his grappling skills to seize Sanako's naginata.
But who knows, Sanako burst out with a huge force that came from nowhere.
She struggled wildly, her knuckles turned white, and she held on to the naginata tightly. Ayoto found it difficult to disarm her for a moment.
The water flowing beneath their feet was far from gentle.
Standing in a river like this and struggling, it's easy to get into an accident.
Qingdeng noticed this and quickly said:
"Miss Sanako! Calm down! It's easy for you to fall..."
The words haven’t been finished yet——
"ah!"
Whatever you are afraid of will come.
From the beginning of this so-called "second sparring session", Sanako's body posture and center of gravity have not been properly adjusted.
Due to her unstable standing position and the fact that she accidentally stepped on something slippery, Sanako's entire delicate body fell towards the river in a supine motion.
Aoto, who was holding Sanako's right wrist and left shoulder, was also pulled towards the river.
Fortunately, Qingdeng's reaction was quick enough.
He gritted his teeth and moved unconsciously - pulling Sanako towards him, hugging the beauty in front of him tightly, then holding Sanako and turning his body so that her original face faced The river surface was changed to face away from the river.
Poof!
The two of them fell heavily into the river.
Submerged in water, overwhelmed...
Under the "you chase me" just now, the two had already left the center of the river and came to a river bank where the water depth was only a little over 30 centimeters.
This depth... was just enough to submerge both of their bodies.
Qingden felt that his whole body was surrounded by the cold water, and there was a burning pain in his back, which was in close contact with the river bed.
"Pooh!"
Qingden came out of the water holding Sanako.
"Miss Sanako, are you okay?"
Qingden lowered his eyes and looked at Sanako in his arms.
At this moment under his gaze... Qingden's gaze straightened.
His eyes and his mind were all captured by Sanako's delicate body, which was clinging to the wet kendo uniform.
