A Lucky? Dude Journey

Chapter 50

*Clang* *Boom* *Clang* *Boom*

The sounds of swords clashing and explosion in the air reverberating. Doni, who stood in his previous place with his Man of Steel authority active has been defending and sometimes attacking me after parrying.

I flew toward Doni and slashed down my sunflame-coated Katana horizontally. Doni in his Man of Steel Authority stood and slashed to the right where my slash coming.

*Clang* *Boom*

A massive silvery aura of Doni and crimson yellow aura of mine clashed alongside our sword. We have been clashing our sword for twenty minutes since the fall of the eternal sun.

After the clash, I flew back to the sky to make some distance from Doni.

"If it's like this, I will win, you know?" I raised my eyebrow and tauntingly said.

"Indeed, that's why this time I'm going to try something." Doni laughingly said.

Silvery aura started from his hand started to surround the sword and made it a bit bigger where he can still swing it casually.

Then he suddenly closed his eyes seemingly concentrated on something. As the silvery aura on his silver arm flew somewhere to the sky or maybe the atmosphere, Doni unclosed his eyes.

"Come, Izumi!" Doni said with a crazed smile.

"As you wish." As soon as I said that, I instantly flew toward Doni and once again slashed down. While I was slashing Doni, two miniature suns instantly appeared at Doni's side and directly assault him.

Doni swings his sword to the right to parry my Katana. When the Katana clashed to Doni's sword, suddenly smalls sword protruding from Doni's sword fiercely attacking me and the two small suns beside him.

*Clang* *Boom* *Boom*

Instantly I teleported behind Doni and use the ninth technique of Niten Ichi-Ryu: One sword style – Raisouso. It was a fast zig-zagged slash like a lightning.

Knowing he was attacked from behind, Doni swiftly swung his sword to the behind and parried my strike. Once again silvery small swords appeared from Doni's sword attacking me from every side.

I promptly used the twelfth technique of Niten Ichi-Ryu: One sword style – Tatsumaki to cut every small sword assaulting me.

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

Without delay, I used my most favorite technique of Niten Ichi-Ryu: One sword style – Issetsu Nadegiri aimed at Doni's stomach. Doni immediately positioned his sword to the left side where I aimed at.

*Clang*

After the clash, I directly flew back to my previous position. Suddenly Doni's sword cut into two-piece as the result of our clash.

"Hoo, looks like this is my win?" I smirked and said.

"Still not! Take this! HAAAAAAAAAAA" Doni fiercely shouted to raise his spirit.

The next moment, there are small dots of shadow in the sky falling down toward me. It was asteroids.

"Damn, you are crazy." I shake my head and said.

"Hahaha" Doni laughed excitedly.

Because of the barrier, the asteroids won't even touch me. But, the aftereffect of that will be very dangerous to Alice and nearby country. Thinking like that, I flew higher to the sky and assumed the Iai stance as I looked thoughtfully to the asteroids.

As the asteroids fall down, suddenly a scene flashed in my mind.

The place was like ancient Japan. There was once a boy. The boy was abandoned in an orphan when he was a baby with a single Katana beside him. The boy albeit still a kid loves the Katana so much, he even trained hard every day causing him didn't have any friends on his peer.

The scene changed. Years passed, the boy was eight years old. At that time, The dojo of Ganryu Style recruiting talented people from every corner of Japan. The boy who wanted to know more about sword arts decided to enter the Dojo.

Before he was allowed to enter the Dojo, he was given a test. It was to fight someone who has learned Ganryu Style for a year and hit him at least once.

Even without proper techniques, his times trained with Katana able to overcome the test even won the battle at that. Thus, the boy who was dubbed as a genius welcomed warmly by the head of the dojo.

In his time being a student in the Dojo, he gained a friend. The friend of him isn't as genius as him at least that was what people said about him. But weirdly they got along very well. His name is Miyamoto Musashi.

The boy naturally knows, Musashi was in fact genius in swords arts. Because even though Musashi wasn't suited in Ganryu Style, if he desired it he can defeat every student in the Dojo except him.

Times passed again, the boy was now a man. After Musashi intentionally left the Dojo as he advised, the boy trained very hard to attain the perfection of the sword.

One day the man once again meet Musashi who becomes very famous as a wandering swordsman and recognized to be the strongest swordsman in Japan history.

Musashi made a new sword style that uses two swords, Niten Ichi-Ryu. When the man and Musashi meet, immediately both of them earnestly asked for a spar. After three hours of swords clash, the man loses.

It was the first time he lost, but oddly he didn't mad about it. Rather his will to perfect his swords art becomes firmer. Then the man and Musashi drink with each other after the spar.

It was three years after the spar. The man finally perfectly mastered the Ganryu style and combined it in one technique. The man was extremely happy because of that. He eagerly searched for Musashi who wandering somewhere in Japan. But at that moment, impenetrable darkness slowly attacking him.

Then the scene blurred and suddenly it was at the duel between the man, Sasaki Kojiro, and the strongest swordsman in Japan history, Miyamoto Musashi. The duel that story described ended in one clash, actually occurred for a day.

Kojiro while holding back the darkness inside him requested Musashi to give his everything in the last clash. Musashi looked at his friend with sorrowful expression and nodded understandingly. In the last clash before he loses, Kojiro used the perfection of his technique.

It was the technique he completed after training very hard to perfect his sword arts. Inspired by how to cut down a swallow in mid-flight, the technique name is 'Hiken – Tsubame Gaeshi'.

The scene ended and now the asteroids were barely ten meters before reaching me. At this moment, I concentrate fully while gripping the handle of my Katana. Imagining the man who died unjustly because of darkness but still holding pride of a warrior, I shouted.

"HIKEN – TSUBAME GAESHI"

The perfection of this technique added with the divine power of Campione able to cut the asteroids into vanishingly small pieces causing them gently falling down like rain.

Looking at that, I sheathed my Katana and flew back to my previous place.

"Do you surrender?" I asked Doni with a smirk.

"I should have, but... I feel like I still can fight..." Doni answered with his eyes revealed a fighting spirit.

"Hehe... Then try it! I will give you one last clash." I smilingly said.

Without replying, Doni closed his eyes and concentrated his mind. Not long after he unclosed his eyes and smiled excitedly.

"O silver arm, upon my oath turn into the invincible blade!" Doni shoutingly chanted.

The silver aura in his arm started buzzing fiercely then covered his entire arm as if enchanting the arm into a magic sword.

"Take this last strike, Izumi! ORAAAAAAAAAAAA" Doni shouted fiercely.

The silvery aura in his arms become bigger and bigger like a laser sword aimed toward me.

'Wow... just look like a saber...'

Looking at the laser sword that comes toward me I closed my eyes and activated the First Eyes: Death Perception. Lines of death appeared in everything before my eyes, even the laser sword. Instantaneously I took Iai stance once again and shouted.

"Hiken – Tsubame gaeshi"

I cut every line the laser sword has, causing it to disperse and disappear. When the laser sword disappears, I teleported behind Doni who breathed heavily full of wounds that have not healed. Then I placed my Katana on his neck.

"Well, do you surrender?" I asked with a smile.

"Haha... You win..." Doni said with a satisfied smile subsequently Doni lose his consciousness. Before he falls to the ground, I pulled him and carry him like a sack.

"Fuuu, that was fun. And yare yare what a hard-headed friend I got..." I said with a smile.
