I formed the strongest swordsman group.

Chapter 494 The heroines are getting bigger and bigger! 【6000】

Boss Kiryu is as energetic as ever.

Bright eyes, solid and powerful steps, clear and precise speech.

Except for the inevitable wrinkles on his skin due to age, there was nothing aging about his body, and there was no hint that he was an old man who was nearing his prime.

Today's Kinoshita Mai is also dressed very formally.

The bright red kimono with beautiful embroidery patterns, the exquisite goose yellow obi, the jade feet wrapped in white socks that make you want to hold them in your palms, and the small red button clogs.

"Qingden! Good morning!"

"Well, good morning to you too."

After greeting Qingden, she turned her gaze and began to say hello to other people present - and then, almost in the blink of an eye, her expression changed from "joyful" to "timid."

"U-um... hello... I am Teshiro from Chishiya... Mai Kinoshita..."

As she spoke, her hands folded in front of her were clasped tightly, and her toes wrapped in white socks repeatedly scratched the clogs under her feet, her expression tense.

Only in front of Qingdeng can she show her innocent and girlish side.

However, after becoming a couple with Qingdeng, she became more cheerful and energetic than before, nourished and inspired by love.

Although she is still very introverted and shy, at least she has the courage to take the initiative to say hello to people.

When talking to strangers, dare to look directly into the other person's eyes and speak clear enough words for the other person to understand.

In the past, when there were many strangers around, she would have buried her head low and hid behind Boss Kiryu, staring intently at the ground in front of her toes. He didn't even dare to take a breath.

Kinoshita Mai had a good relationship with Souji, so she nodded slightly and smiled slightly at Souji as a greeting.

As for Sanako...

She turned her gaze sideways and glanced at Sanako next to her.

Coincidentally, at the same time, Sanako also squinted his eyes, and glanced at Kinoshita Mai with neither sadness nor joy.

Immediately afterwards, they coincidentally and hastily looked away, as if they would see each other's filth when their eyes met.

Kinoshita Mai: "Hmph."

Sanako: "Hmph."

At the same time, the two women snorted coldly at a volume that only they could hear clearly.

After announcing to the three girls and their parents in the ward of the Jin Medical Center, "I want to start a big family," Qingto's dream of "girlfriends getting along well with each other and forming a loving relationship with each other" The scene of "good friendship"... did not happen.

Leaving aside "Happy Shiba Inu", the relationship between "Short Cat" and "Noble Fox" is still bad...

To be honest, Qingto still hasn't figured out why the relationship between Sanako and Kinoshita Mai is so bad.

If it is said that they hate each other because they are rivals in love...it doesn't seem to make sense.

After all, Souji is also their love rival, but they all have a good relationship with Souji.

Fortunately, according to Qingdeng's observation, the two women did not harbor such strong hatred for each other that they "wanted her to die quickly."

All in all, the relationship between the two of them is really awkward.

Maybe this is the so-called "incompatibility" - there is no reason, it is just that the other person does not like the other person.

At this time, Qingdeng suddenly thought: I traveled to this world in January of the seventh year of Anzheng (1860), and now it is December of the second year of Wenjiu (1).

Roughly speaking, he has lived in this world for nearly three years, and has known and gotten along with Sanako, Mai Kinoshita, and Souji for nearly three years.

Compared with the time when we first met them, the three women have changed a lot.

Sanako is 24 years old this year and has long passed the age of physical growth.

No matter the height, the bear or the peach, they have stopped growing.

However, the precipitation of time has made her temperament more mature, elegant and charming.

Besides, it was as if she had frozen her age.

Although she is almost three years old, she still looks like a young woman in her early 20s.

Even Sanako has such obvious changes, not to mention Souji and Kinoshita Mai who are already in their growing years.

The facial features have become more mature, and the eyebrows have lost a lot of childishness... These changes in appearance are not worth mentioning, so I won't mention them for now.

The biggest change in Souji and Mai Kinoshita's appearance in recent years is undoubtedly the change in body shape - the slender places are still slender, and the already big places have become even bigger!

The current general manager has to spend far more time and effort every morning than before to smooth his body.

And the other girl... Qingdeng guessed: This may be a side effect of the talent "milk".

As early as three years ago, Kinoshita Mai's kimono skirt was already very bulging and high.

And now, the hem of her kimono was bulging even more!There is almost no free space between the clothes and the body, which is particularly eye-catching.

Although she was still inferior to Sanako in terms of size, Qingto felt that her current size and shape were just right.

After all, Kinoshita Mai is nowhere near as tall as Sanako.

Sanako's size is right at the critical point of "if she were bigger, she would look a little scary" and "if she were shorter, she would look very uncoordinated."

In other words, Sanako's size is only suitable for her height.

If Kinoshita Mai was the same age as Sanako, it would be more scary.

However, strangely enough, although Kinoshita Mai and Souji's body changes were quite obvious and prominent, their heights did not increase at all.

The general secretary is still only 1 meters...

Kinoshita Mai is still only 1 meters...

Maybe the nutrients have been concentrated elsewhere and are no longer able to provide height.

If Sanako and Kinoshita Mai met in private, they would probably say some weird things about each other.

However, this was a very serious occasion, and it was naturally impossible for the two women to choke each other in public without knowing the right rules.

Therefore, after they looked at each other, they looked away tacitly, stopped looking at each other, consciously "truce", and maintained the greatest degree of restraint.

Among the people present, except for Aoto and the three women who were involved, only the boss Kiryu and Jutaro Chiba knew about Aoto's grand wish of "marrying three real wives."

They promised the director not to reveal her true gender, so they did not tell others about the complicated relationship between Qingteng and the three women.

And Qingdeng also made up his mind - until he really has the energy that "even if he marries three wives, no one or force would dare to oppose him", he will not advertise his ambition widely. Of.

Otherwise, it would be easy to cause unnecessary trouble to yourself, Sanako and the others.

So, so far, only Boss Kiryu, Chiba Jutaro and Okita Hikari who witnessed Aoto's "lofty ambitions" in the ward of Jin Medical Center know everything.

The rest...including Sanako's biological father, Chiba Nobuyoshi, are still kept in the dark.

For this reason, the atmosphere surrounding Qingdeng at this time was quite harmonious.

If there is any disharmony... it would probably be that after the three girls gathered together, Boss Kiryu and Jutaro Chiba have been casting elusive and complicated glances at Ayoto and the girls in their respective families from time to time... …

Regarding the "rebellious" behavior of young people, as parents, they are both worried and angry, but also helpless...

At this time, Qingden heard Hijikata Toshizo's voice.

"Hey! Tachibana! Souji! Shannan!"

Not far away, Hijikata Sui folded his waist and continued to shout with high spirits:

"The passing ceremony is about to begin! It's almost time for everyone to take their places!"

"okay, I get it!"

Qingden responded loudly.

Shannan Keisuke interrupted at the right time:
"Then, ladies and gentlemen, please come with us."

Aoto, Souji and Shannan Keisuke led the Chiba family and Chishiya group towards the venue.

Just as everyone was moving towards the stands, Qingto deliberately lagged half a step behind and passed side by side with Mai Kinoshita.

"A Wu, who is this?"

As he spoke, he looked at the girl in yellow who had been holding hands with Mai Kinoshita since just now without saying a word.

Qingto was just busy greeting Chiba Nobuyoshi, Boss Kiryu and others, so he didn't have time to ask about the identity of the girl in yellow.

Before Kinoshita Mai could speak, the girl in yellow slightly lifted the low-brimmed bamboo hat on her head, raised her head, and looked directly at Qingden.

Dazzling blond hair and a pair of beautiful sapphire eyes that reminded people of the clear summer sky caught Qingden's eyes.

"Master, it's me."

The girl in yellow greeted him with a smile at a volume that only she, Mai Kinoshita, and Aoto could hear clearly.

With blond hair and blue eyes, she calls Qingden "Master"... The identity of this woman is already obvious.

"Elodie?"

Qingden blinked, looking surprised.

"Elody, why are you here?"

Elodie chuckled.

"How can I miss such a fun and grand event? I've been staying at home lately, and I'm almost smothered."

After speaking, she added:
"Master, don't worry, I went out today with grandpa's permission."

Although he is now the "Minister of the Military Aircraft Department" with many things to do, Qingden still insists on being Elodie's tutor, visiting Elodie regularly every month to teach him swordsmanship.

I have to say that this harmless blond loli is indeed very talented in swordsmanship.

Even if he cannot be said to be a genius, he can at least be said to be talented and intelligent.

She has mastered most of the sword skills of Natural Rishin-ryu.

Even if he is a six-foot-tall man, as long as he is an ordinary person who has never learned martial arts, he is like a chicken tile ditch in front of her.

Based on Elodie's current level of strength and learning progress... Qingto estimates that as long as she trains hard for another 10 years, she will be able to obtain the Nun Rishin-ryu nobility transmission.Although it can't be compared with monsters like Souji, Nagakura Shinpachi, and Saito Ichi who were able to defeat Sono Kaden in their teens, it is still an incredible achievement.

As Alodie got older, Anthony relaxed a lot of her personal restrictions, and no longer shut her up at home like a canary.

He allowed Elodie to go out for a brief walk as long as she was accompanied by any one of Aoto, Boss Kiryu and Mai Kinoshita.

In the current political situation, the "respecting the king and rejecting the barbarians" faction has the upper hand.

Gyeonggi was the absolute center of the movement to respect the king and repel the barbarians.In comparison, the Edo side is much more peaceful. At least there are no frequent "Tenchu ​​incidents", but we should not take it lightly.

However, in order to be on the safe side and avoid being troubled by the "King King and Expulsion Barbarians" people, Elodie still had to wear Japanese clothes and a hat to cover her face when she went out.

Now that he has obtained Anthony's permission to go out and is accompanied by Boss Kiryu and Mai Kinoshita, Aoto is relieved.

He smiled and chatted with Elodie casually.

Then... suddenly, his eyes suddenly began to move uncontrollably, staring straight at Elodie's upper body.

Qingdeng dared to pat his chest to ensure that it was not because he was lecherous!
But...as a human being, he really can't defy the physical law of "the greater the mass, the greater the gravity"!

倘若说，在这1年又8个月的时间里，发生在佐那子、木下舞和总司身上的变化，是从1变成2、3、4、5。

Then, the change that happened to Elodie was from 0 to 1 - in short, it was a qualitative change!
After all... she is a girl with the talent of "abundant breasts".

What was originally an extremely straight line quickly changed into an uneven curve at the same speed as a month.

The growth rate is breathtaking.

What's even more amazing is that she is obviously a pure-blooded French girl, but like the chief executive and Kinoshita Mai, her height basically hasn't changed...

She has probably grown a little taller, but the change is small enough to be ignored. Her current height is still less than 1 meters.

Not only that, her facial features have not changed significantly, and she still has the same baby face that can be broken by blows.

In a word, Elodie has changed from a lolita with a standard body shape to...a lolita whose body and age are very different...

At this moment, an indifferent female voice without sadness or joy came into Qingdeng’s ears:

"...Qingdeng, where are you looking?"

Qingdeng looked up and saw a pair of beautiful eyes staring straight at him - correct, they were beautiful eyes that exuded a cold air.

"I didn't look anywhere."

Qing Deng straightened his face, and replied with righteous words without thinking.

However, his answer failed to win Kinoshita Mai's understanding.

"Liar! I saw you staring straight at Elodie's face with my own eyes. Humph, it's obscene! Don't look at it again!"

After that, she protected Elodie behind her like an old hen protecting her chicks.

Elodie raised her head, looked at Qingden, then at Mai Kinoshita, and asked with a childlike expression:
"Miss Wu, why do you call the master obscene?"

"Well...! Don't ask so many questions, kid!"

Qingdeng, who was speechless, had a helpless wry smile on his face.

Elodie blinked her beautiful eyes a few times, her eyes flashing with confusion.

……

……

Edo, Fuchu, and Six Myojin—the succession ceremony was held in the square in front of the shrine.

Shusuke Kondo delivered the opening speech, Isamu Kondo read the oath... Although these red tapes are boring, they cannot be skipped.

After about half an hour of somewhat boring time, the highlight of today's passing ceremony - the "Civil War" of Natural Rishin-ryu, is finally about to officially begin!

There are a total of 100 participants, 50 from each side of the red and white sides. They are all swordsmen from the natural sect. Lots will be used to allocate the members of the red and white sides.

This competition not only has a performance nature to add interest to the passing ceremony, but also has a political meaning to prove to the visiting guests that the natural Rishin-ryu is strong and talented. It would be inappropriate to let a junior person be the general.

For this reason, the generals of the red and white sides are all seniors with extremely high seniority.

Shiro's general is Sato Hikoro, Hijikata Toshizo's brother-in-law, who donated a large sum of money to the founding of the Shoeikan and made outstanding contributions to the development of Natural Rishin-ryu.

The general of the red side is Ogiwara Zaku, who is older than Kondo Shusuke and was said to be super strong when he was young, but is now very old.

Isamu Kondo and Shusuke Kondo will not participate in this competition. They will sit on the high platform throughout the whole process as referees and refer to the overall situation.

……

……

In a wide space nearly the size of two football fields, both red and white teams were already in place at the east and west ends of the field.

Guests were sitting on the north and south sides of the venue, eagerly waiting for the game to start.

In addition, there were some passers-by who happened to be passing by and came to join in the fun.

Looking at the entire auditorium, the best friends Kinoshita Mai and Elodie were the most excited.

The former loves to watch this type of martial arts competition, while the latter simply likes to join in the fun.

They scanned the arena with their eyes shining, while chatting and discussing.

"Miss Wu, which side do you think will win?"

"Does that need to be said? Of course, whichever side Qingdeng is on will win!"

When saying this, Kinoshita Mai unconsciously raised her chin with a proud look on her face.

……

On the other side, the Chiba family is also discussing the outcome of the game.

"Sanako, which side do you think will win?"

Chiba Jutaro asked his sister beside him in a casual tone.

"……Hard to say."

Sanako replied calmly and unhurriedly.

"If there is a competition between which side can fight to the last moment, there is no doubt that the side with Mr. Tachibana will win."

"But this is a red and white battle. You can win as long as you 'kill' the general."

"In the red-white battle, as long as the strategy is right, the weak can defeat the strong."

"I originally thought that the side with Mr. Tachibana would have an absolute advantage."

"However... judging from the current situation, Mr. Tachibana's side is not guaranteed to win."

……

The camp Qingden was assigned to was White.

At this moment, he was tying a white cloth band and a porcelain bowl on his forehead while casting a speechless look towards the other side.

"Is there really no behind-the-scenes operation? Why are the strongest people in our training hall all on the opposite side?"

People who are familiar with the Trial Hall will definitely take a breath after seeing the comparison of the lineups of the red and white sides - the red side is simply an all-star lineup!
Toshizo Hijikata, Keisuke Yamanan, Genzaburo Inoue, Shinpachi Nagakura, Ichi Saito, Sanosuke Harada, Heisuke Toudo... the most capable players in the trial defense hall are almost all on the red side!
After Shannan Keisuke, Aoden's old subordinate: Todo Heisuke also joined the trial guard hall.

Compared to Shannan Keisuke, his reason for joining the Trial Guard Hall was much simpler——

"Mr. Orange! I admire you very much! So I want to learn a lot from your side!"

In this way, Toudo Heisuke moved from the Ito Dojo where he originally belonged to the Shiwei Hall.

At first, the owner of Ito Dojo, Ito Daizo, who had competed with Aoden under the introduction of Toudo Heisuke, was deeply interested in Aoto, and was unwilling to let him go.

Although Toudou Heisuke is very young, has an irritable personality, and lacks polish, it is undeniable that his talent is outstanding, he has made achievements in knowledge and martial arts, and his appearance is not bad. He can be regarded as a weakened version of Shannan Keisuke.

Ito Daizo was unwilling to give up such a precious talent.

However, Toudo Heisuke had decided to leave, and even though Ito Oizou was extremely reluctant to leave, he could only reluctantly cut his body.

After looking around at the red camp on the opposite side for a few more times, Qingdeng silently withdrew his gaze, and then let out a sigh of relief—this was not a lament of regret, but a cry of joy.

Although the red team's lineup is very luxurious, but fortunately among the misfortunes... the genius girl, his most tacit fighting partner, is on his side!

"Mr. Ju, the situation is not optimistic."

Souji, who had already tied the white cloth belt and porcelain bowl, and tied his sleeves with sleeve belts, walked slowly to Qingteng's side with a bamboo sword in hand.

The two stood side by side.

Qing Deng shrugged.

"As you can see, Hijikata, Shannan, Inoue, Nagakura, Saito, Harada, and Toudo are all wearing red ribbons. On our side...except for the two of us, no one should be able to stop them."

The director-general smiled.

"That is to say...we are going to fight against seven of them with the strength of the two?"

"you can say it this way."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Xiao Si, why are you laughing?"

"It's nothing, I'm just excited. Being able to fight Mr. Hijikata and the others in one breath... To be honest, I'm very excited right now."

Speaking of this, the Souji paused as if he remembered something.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on her lips and she continued.

"And... I feel so happy to be able to fight alongside you after a long time. I have you here, and you have me - is there a stronger lineup in this world than this?"

When Qingdeng heard this, he was startled for a moment, and then he laughed dumbly:

"Xiao Si, what a coincidence, you and I thought of going together."

*******
*******
Kondo Isamu, Hijikata Toshizo, Shannan Keisuke, Inoue Genzaburo, Nagakura Shinpachi, Saito Ichi, Harada Sanosuke, Toudo Heisuke—the names of these 8 brothers of Aoto must be remembered!
