I teach kendo in Tokyo

Kazuma's upper half combo looks unremarkable.

He was not familiar with Rise of Mind style and didn't know why this school gave him this initial skill.

The speed of the two swords is very fast, in order to catch the opponent off guard - most people may not guard against the second sword after blocking the first sword.

The above attack would seem silly to ordinary people.

In fact, it's quite stupid. The attack path is single, wide open and close, and there is no way to defend the enemy.

However, the attack in the upper section is extremely powerful when practiced to the extreme, because the upper section is one of the most suitable postures for exerting force.

Exhibition style is a school that specializes in the upper level. Top masters of Exhibition style can even cut off the opponent's sword - of course, this is relatively rare now, because the advancement of smelting technology makes modern swords extremely difficult to break.

An ordinary manifestation-style master can easily cut through long-handled weapons such as bamboo spears.

In short, one force can reduce ten levels. As long as the upper and lower blows are powerful enough, you can kill anyone who refuses to obey.

However, Kazuma has never learned the show style. If he had learned it, he would probably be able to perform that kind of downward slash.

He now only has two consecutive cuts in the upper section.

Although it has mediocre sword skills, it can be activated very quickly with a plug-in. As someone who had practiced kendo before time travel, Kazuma himself thought that he could only maintain the posture of raising the sword stupidly if he wanted to deal with this second company.

It would be bad if after blocking, you have the idea of ​​​​changing your moves after blocking, such as putting aside your sword and launching a kick at the same time.

Modern kendo does not allow the use of feet, but Kazuma and the others are a group of martial arts players, so there is not so much emphasis on it. Shindang-ryu, as an ancient style that focuses on practical combat, also has its own tricks.

In short, after Kazuma avoided his sister's attack, he chose this second company as his counterattack.

Unexpectedly, Chiyoko blocked two swords in a row, and then rushed directly before Kazuma could withdraw his attacks.

Practical martial arts combat is no better than playing fighting games online. The sword must be retracted before it can be struck a second time. The power of cutting someone directly without retracting the sword is very low. A real sword can still leave some wounds with its sharp blade, but a bamboo sword cannot be retracted. It's as if it doesn't exist.

Chiyoko rushed up directly, and the blade of her bamboo sword went straight to Kazuma's face.

Kazuma immediately raised his hand and used the guard of the bamboo sword to deflect Chiyoko's sword.

That's what the gauntlet is for.

Some Japanese knives do not have handguards, which is for the purpose of concealment. In actual fighting, they will be at a great disadvantage compared to normal-shaped knives.

He stepped forward while deflecting the attack from the horse.

With the sword's current posture, it was no longer possible to poke Chiyoko with the sword. He stepped forward to use the lower body move.

Set up the weapon to contain it, and then it's time to take action.

He still had the same idea of ​​​​playing a soldier attack, and took the response out of habit, forgetting that you can't use kicks in kendo sparring.

However, Chiyoko quickly retreated, preventing Kazuma from getting closer.

In close combat, the bigger one usually has the advantage.

The two of them moved forward and retreated, taking more than ten steps directly behind Chiyoko.

Kazuma clearly felt that the force acting on the bamboo sword was getting stronger.

Suddenly, Chiyoko shouted: "Noodles!"

Kazuma was startled, and then the bamboo sword in his hand was raised upwards - Chiyoko suddenly stopped retreating and used Kazuma's own strength to push the sword upwards.

Then Chiyoko turned her wrist. The Japanese sword has a longer handle and needs to be held with both hands. There are many moves that can be performed by just turning two wrists.

The power is not strong, but the victory lies in speed and flexibility in changing moves.

Kazuma didn't care about anything and immediately retreated.

The gap was so large that it was almost impossible to put the knife back to block, and he couldn't turn his wrist to turn the knife down like Chiyoko - now his hands were raised high, and he couldn't turn it vigorously.

It can only create distance.

Chiyoko's bamboo sword slashed across Kazuma's eyes.

Kazuma took several steps back, but Chiyoko did not catch up, but regrouped on the spot.

Her eyes were so sharp they could kill.

Kazuma also took a deep breath.

——So strong.

To outsiders, it may seem like they just performed a few moves that were unremarkable. If the fighting scene in Jackie Chan's "Drunken Master" was rated as 10 points, then the brother-sister fight just now would only be rated as 2 points.

This is how it feels to an outsider looking at a real kendo duel.

However, Kazuma has been practicing kendo seriously for several years with Masato Hasegawa, a Shinto-ryu master. He is no amateur.

Chiyoko's response just now was so strong.

If it were a real sword duel, I and Ma would have gone back and forth several times before the gate of hell just now.

Judging from the numbers given by the plug-in, Kazuma should be the stronger side, but after this round of battles, Kazuma became unsure.

At this moment, the line of words above Chiyoko's head, the line of "lonely determination", was burning brightly.

The effect of this BUFF is quite good.

At this time, Chiyoko spoke: "Brother, you really don't remember this move. When dad taught us this move, you couldn't practice it. I pretended that I wasn't familiar with it and practiced with you..."

As soon as Chiyoko said that, Kazuma recalled related memories.

Rishin-ryu, a move in which Kiryu and Ma practiced many times back then, never got to grips with the move of Rishin-ryu, which involves suddenly charging forward to raise the opponent's sword, then turning it horizontally.

Chiyoko had been sparring at that time and started crying because she couldn't grasp the key points.

At least that's the memory Kazuma inherited from his rightful owner.

Chiyoko: "I saw that you were practicing very hard, and you even started crying and making mischief on purpose, forcing Dad to take a break after class."

Kazuma suddenly realized.

"These memories, to me, are irreplaceable treasures." Chiyoko said, her eyes began to sparkle.

"This... don't cry..."

However, as soon as Kazuma started, Chiyoko rushed up.

She used the dental protrusion that Kazuma taught her.

However, compared to the fully automatic tooth thrust provided by the plug-in, Chiyoko's is still a bit slower.

Kazuma ducked sideways, stepped forward, and aimed his bamboo sword at Chiyoko's head.

However, in a flash of lightning, Chiyoko actually held Kazuma's sword. This change of move was so fast that even people who had practiced like Kazuma couldn't see the details clearly.

——But it’s not over yet!

Kazuma turned his wrist and drew a circle with his bamboo sword. This move was to turn the opponent's sword downward, and then attack the right hand holding the sword——

But Chiyoko suddenly let go of her right hand, and at the same time pushed forward with her left hand holding the end of the knife handle.

This is also one of the many uses of Japanese swords, which can make the knife suddenly grow longer.

The tip of the bamboo sword was pressed firmly against Kazuma's chest.

This force is not light.

If it were a real knife, the horse's lungs would have been punctured.

But Kazuma's bamboo sword also hit Chiyoko's left hand, and the force was not light.

Normally the knife would have fallen to the ground, but Chiyoko didn't let go.

Although there was a very obvious red mark on the side of the tiger's mouth of her left hand from Kazuma's bamboo knife, and even though Kazuma grimaced in pain when he saw her at the moment of the hit, she did not let go.

Kazuma truly felt Chiyoko's determination.

He didn't say much, just distanced himself and took a stance.

Chiyoko did the same thing.

"When the people from Sumitomo Construction came here for the first time, I thought you would flatly refuse, brother." Chiyoko said again, "But you didn't, and when you saw the amount entered by the people from Sumitomo Construction using a calculator, you laughed. Now, your expression has become so strange."

——Because I am indeed a stranger to you.

Of course Kazuma didn't say this.

"These days, I finally understand that I am alone, and there is no one standing with me." Chiyoko continued, and as she spoke, the words "solitary determination" burned more and more intensely on her head.

"The dead chicken is disgusting, the Yakuza is scary, and my only friendly army has left me, but I can't back down."

Chiyoko's tears finally shed, and her emotions entered an explosive state.

Kazuma could see red "ki" pouring out of Chiyoko, and she now looked like a Super Saiyan in Kazuma's eyes, wrapped in red and transparent flames.

"I only have kendo. Kendo allowed me to escape from the bullying of my classmates. Kendo allowed me to make friends! Kendo made me feel that my father was with me! No one can take kendo away from me! No one can !”

Chiyoko shouted and rushed forward.

Kazuma held her sword, but she burst out with amazing strength and suppressed the older man than her - Kazuma.

Kazuma must hold the sword with all his strength and dare not change his moves for fear that the sword will be knocked out of his hand.

Fortunately, he broke the stance, and the knife was pressed so that the blade was pressed into his body, but it was still blocked in front of him.

Chiyoko's slender body pressed forward, and she was close enough to be able to touch her face to face.

"I! I am stronger than you, brother!" Chiyoko shouted, "I am the master of this dojo!"

Kazuma's momentum was suppressed by Chiyoko.

However, he was still thinking calmly.

Although Chiyoko burst out with amazing strength and momentum, she had a fatal problem.

Her weight hasn't changed.

If you want to purely strive for strength, weight is a crucial part.

People who are underweight will have to rely more on strategy and skills to win.

This is true whether it's fighting or kendo.

Even modern kendo, which focuses on skills, is practiced by men and women.

Kazuma roared for the first time in this fight.

He exerted force violently, pushing Chiyoko back continuously.

This is simply using weight to bully people.

After pushing Chiyoko to the point where her lower body was unstable, Kazuma took advantage of the situation and slightly distanced himself - the swords were stuck together and they couldn't swing the sword.

Immediately after that, an upper and lower split came out - not a two-parter, but a simple and boring upper and lower split.

There are no tricks, it’s just powerful.

But it doesn't seem to be much different from the starting hand of Double Slash.

——Yes!

Kazuma felt that this move was successful!

However, Chiyoko did not block and retreated to a safe place.

For this judgment, Kazuma couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

She had lost her posture just now, and there was a high chance that she would make a mistake when trying to block. If she didn't block well, she might be hit in the arm.

The upper and lower slashes are not the same thing as the sword-swinging attack just now. Kazuma hit Chiyoko's hand just now, but he only used the strength of his forearm, not the upper arm.

The upper and lower cuts are exerted from the shoulders, and the power is incomparable.

If he is hit in the hand, the bamboo sword will definitely be released.

The two returned to the state they were in before intertwining, except that during the entanglement, the two sides circled around and switched positions.

Chiyoko glared at Kazuma: "Brother, you are not Rishin-ryu at all. I was suspicious when I saw your thrust yesterday. When did you learn Shinto-ryu? In a public school like Kitakareshi, Can you afford to hire a new member of the current class, Wauno Jiechuan, to be your kendo instructor?"

——No, obviously I can't afford it. Daimon Goro seems to be a folk expert.

But this thing is not explained clearly.

Moreover, Kazuma is a little angry now.

As long as his body hurts, he will get angry.

Before time travel, he had a toothache for a while, and then he became very irritable, which almost caused him to lose his job at a foreign trade company.

The pain that Chiyoko had just stabbed him in the chest was burning, and bruises could probably be seen if he opened his clothes.

The pain made Kazuma quite angry.

Moreover, he also had a lot of thoughts that he wanted to express about what Chiyoko just said.

After a "passionate collision" with Chiyoko, he recalled more things about the original owner.

The original owner, the real Kiryu Kazuma, had long known that Chiyoko was stronger than him.

That's why he works extra hard to practice kendo.

Because his younger sister, who was a senior teacher, handed over the dojo to him as his inheritance without saying a word, the original Kazuma Kiryu wanted to become a man who lived up to his hard work.

He wanted to promote the ashram.

Just no talent.

The anxiety and annoyance that the real Kiryu Kazuma experienced poured into the heart of Wang Jian, a Chinese in the 21st century.

But strangely, Wang Jian is completely able to understand.

Because he comes from an age full of stress and anxiety.

He wants to sell the dojo just because he wants to seize this rare rising period in Japanese society and complete the class jump that he failed to complete before time travel.

If we fail to grasp this rising period, Japanese society will enter the Heisei era of stagnant water, and society will be completely solidified.

"It's ridiculous that you said you only have kendo." Kiryu Kazuma said now, "You turn a blind eye to your true wealth and just talk nonsense here!

"Look at you, there's not even a wrinkle on your face. You clearly have the most precious thing! That's time! It's possibility!

"This country is on the rise. You don't want to be a trend-setter in the new era, but just sit here and feel sorry for yourself!"

Chiyoko suddenly raised her eyebrows and wanted to speak, but Kazuma didn't give her a chance to speak.

"I do use new techniques, but so what? I have practiced Rishin-ryu for so long, but I still can't beat you. Do you think I can't tell?

"Do you think it's easy for me to see my sister who is stronger than me, unable to inherit the dojo, and having to pretend to be weak, and send herself to the throne of the teacher with a smile?

"So I practiced Shindang-ryu because it suits me better and is stronger! As long as I can win, does it matter which genre is important? Don't the great masters in history who created their own genres often learn from the strengths of others? "

Kazuma didn't know if his high emotions had added BUFF to himself. He didn't have time to look at it and just wanted to express it.

"You've been shouting here all day not to sell the dojo, but have you proposed any solution to our current financial dilemma? No!

"You've been saying all day long that you want me to recruit students, but this dojo doesn't even have a master who has received the exemption. Logically speaking, we don't even have the qualifications to open a dojo! Fortunately, the Kendo Association has long stopped enforcing those rules. !”

Chiyoko finally suppressed a retort: ​​"If you don't mind, you can go to other masters who understand Shinryu to get it..."

"How long will it take to get it? Before we get it, even if the Yakuza doesn't come to our door, what will we do if someone gets sick? Who will pay for the treatment?"

"this……"

"Of course, the salary for part-time jobs is very high now, but if I go to work, I will have to give up the activities of the kendo club. So in order to protect your kendo, I should give up kendo and go to work, right?"

Chiyoko hesitated several times, opening and closing her mouth like a fish starved of oxygen after being thrown ashore.

Kazuma saw that the entry above her head quickly dimmed, and even the flame special effects gradually disappeared.

Then, under Kazuma's gaze, the entry changed.

The color of the entry changed from fiery red to dark blue, which was the same color as the negative status that afternoon and Ma saw on the heads of the frightened gangsters.

The content of the entry also changed to "Troubles in the World."

If Hema pays further attention to the entry, there will also be explanatory text unfolding in his field of vision.

The previous description of "arrogant determination" was "Determined to show all my abilities, no longer hide my strength, and protect precious memories even if it embarrasses my brother", but now the description of "Trouble in the World" is "I fell into trouble under the questioning of my brother. self-doubt."

——I understand. To become stronger, you have to have the courage to make a desperate move, and you have to give up something.

Chiyoko Kiryu is still not pure enough after all.

Kazuma took a deep breath.

——SA, Chiyoko, let me show you my brother’s determination to sell the dojo, embrace the great era, and move towards a prosperous career!
