Daodaiji's slash was powerful and heavy. It was obviously a skill to chop off a person's hands, but when he used it, it seemed to completely destroy the opponent. Each blow was accompanied by unparalleled strength, and his roar contained terrifying anger, which made him more like King Kong.

On the contrary, Nagase Ichiro, who was much shorter than him, was very flexible. The four basic movements of walking, sliding, stepping, and padding became instincts for him. He could easily avoid Daidaiji's attacks and put himself in an advantageous position at all times.

The battle between the two was like an experienced lion hunting a strong African elephant. The African elephant only needed to swing its nose to seriously injure the lion. If it was trampled by the thick elephant legs, it would die instantly. However, the lion had an expressionless face and eyes, except for the strong desire to fight, there was only calmness. He surrounded the African elephant, looking for a chance to win.

Even the spectators were infected by the fierce battle between the two. Everyone's face was blood red, which was a longing for violence. The yearning for this desire deeply rooted in human blood.

In the duel between Beichen Ittoryu and Zhongxi Ittoryu, is the new Beichen Ittoryu stronger, or is the Zhongxi Ittoryu, the source, defending the authenticity?

Bang, bang——

The bamboo swords made a huge sound when they crossed each other. The bamboo swords with excellent flexibility kept bending and recovering. No one would doubt the power of the two people's attacks. If they were not cut by protective gear, they would definitely break bones.

Because it was an informal duel, the time limit of the kendo competition was not followed. In the blink of an eye, the two people had fought for five minutes and still couldn't tell who was better. But the two people's breathing was still rhythmic, trying to restrain the body's desire to absorb oxygen, as if this could squeeze out more physical strength.

As time went by, the physical strength was lost, and the fight between the two became more and more intense. By now, some swordsmen with lower ranks could no longer see the movements of the two people, because compared with the previous sharp sword moves, the two people now began to compare the details. A simple exchange of swords is an extremely complex game, and the loss of a detail will lead to defeat.

The fifth generation Chiba Seinosuke, who was invited to serve as the referee, had no expression on his skinny old face, and his slightly turbid eyes clearly reflected the figures of the two people in the fight.

It's so good to be young...

The old man looked at the strong and young body of Daidoji Masashi and felt envy from the bottom of his heart. The powerful attack made him think of his ancestor Chiba Shusaku.

In fact, although it is a sword-style kendo that emphasizes skills, the founder Chiba Shusaku is very good at overpowering others with force. Legend has it that when he was still practicing Zhongxi Ittoryu, this founder once broke the long strip of floor in the dojo with one foot when fighting with someone.

Although the wooden floor is often smashed into a hole in the film and television dramas, in fact, the wooden floor used in the Neon Dojo is extremely strong. After all, it has to withstand so many young and strong men stepping on it every day. 3.6 cm thick cypress wood, the wood used to build warships in ancient times. Until now, the broken wooden floor is still kept in the Chiba Dojo in Okemachi as evidence of the founder's bravery.

If Daidoji inherits the dojo, maybe it can be taken to a higher level?

Thinking of this, the fifth generation old man looked at the southeast corner a little absent-mindedly, looking at the sixth generation Otsuka Yoichiro, whose face was as fat as Maitreya Buddha, and the blond and blue-eyed foreigner beside him.

Can a foreigner also become the head of my Hokushin Ittoryu?

Thinking of the sixth generation's actions, the old man felt extremely sad.

He abandoned such an excellent Daidoji and accepted a German as his adopted son, and wanted him to inherit the dojo. Is it because the German said that the dojo could be moved to Germany?

Can Hokushin Ittoryu, which has left this land, still survive?

As a direct descendant of the Chiba family, Chiba Seinosuke was full of worries, so he appeared here after announcing his retirement.

Just as the old man was thinking, he suddenly heard a cry of surprise from the dojo, and he quickly focused his attention and looked at the battlefield. Sure enough, the duel between Daidoji Masashi and Nagase Ichiro in the field was about to decide the winner.

The two should have just separated, and their bodies have returned to their normal positions. Daidoji raised his bamboo sword to attack the upper section, which is an attack that abandons defense and gives up combos. The people who choose it are generally strong and explosive. In other words, this is an attack with extremely powerful momentum and power.

Correspondingly, if you want to effectively deal with the upper section attack, first of all, you can't stand still, you can't "respond to changes with the same", after all, people have already got a powerful prestige, and secondly, you can't be afraid. People who are already tall and strong raise their bamboo swords high, even if they are hanging without falling, it is scary enough. Finally, you have to take multiple attacks to break with combos, because the upper section has only one attack.

At this moment, Nagase Ichiro aimed at the middle section, with the bamboo sword placed on the middle line of her body. No matter which direction Daidoji's attack came from, she could see through it immediately, deflecting the opponent's sword first and then quickly attacking again.

After the two of them got ready, they stood there in a calm and focused manner, motionless like statues. This is why the audience can know that the two will decide the winner. After a fierce battle, when they suddenly stop, the body will control the brain to ask for rest. Even if adrenaline is still secreted, the body will instinctively want to rest, so now it depends on who will show a flaw.

Fortunately, none of them had the intention to tremble. After a brief observation, Daidoji Masashi shouted loudly, and the bamboo sword slashed down with the momentum of destroying everything. Nagase Ichiro's eyes lit up on the opposite side, realizing that although the opponent's sword was extremely powerful, it was also a little heavy. He immediately used his toes to support his body, and tried to lean his upper body back, raising the bamboo sword.

At the moment when Daidoji's bamboo sword slashed down, Nagase dodged it in an extremely thrilling way, and then swung down the bamboo sword as expected in his mind, trying to use the force to press Daidoji's bamboo sword lower.

"Pah!"

The bamboo swords made a crisp sound when they met, and Nagase seized the opportunity to use his feet to force and suddenly jumped forward.

So far, everything has been as he expected. Daidoji's upper attack must be stuck at the extreme attack distance to achieve the strongest effect, so that it can have the greatest power and avoid being hit by the enemy. And now Daidoji's bamboo sword has been pressed down by him, and it is absolutely impossible to return to defense.

But! Just when Nagase jumped in front of Daidoji, his face suddenly changed.

Damn!

It turned out that his bamboo sword did press on Daidoji's bamboo sword as expected, but he never expected that Daidoji still had such a strong power after such a long battle. Even if he got a favorable attack position, he couldn't suppress Daidoji's bamboo sword from top to bottom, let alone make a second attack. As long as he slightly retracted the power of the bamboo sword, Daidoji's bamboo sword would instantly cut him up again.

Nagase Ichiro's wrist was trembling. If he was facing other opponents, he would definitely stretch out his foot to trip the enemy now, after all, he was in a favorable position now. But the enemy on the opposite side was Daidoji, and he needed to beware of the other party tripping him to start the "Kenjudo" competition.

But the sky leaked and it rained all night, and what you feared came true. Daidoji, whose bamboo sword was suppressed on the opposite side, smiled at Nagase, and the scar on his face was shaking in a terrifying way. He stretched out his evil foot without hesitation to trip Nagase Ichiro.

"Wow——"

The crowd of onlookers suddenly became noisy, and everyone shouted excitedly. They were quiet before, but now they were shouting loudly to cheer.

Wrestling is not allowed in general kendo competitions, but this is in the Okemachi Chiba Dojo of Beichen Ittoryu. Both sides of the battle are descendants of the ancient kendo. At least half of the military tactics in their dojo are to teach people judo. And more than half of the onlookers are police officers. Wrestling is not common in police kendo competitions. As long as the bamboo swords are crossed, it may instantly turn into a judo competition.

With a wry smile on his face, Nagase Ichiro was tripped without any suspense. Once he entered the ground, the result of the game was needless to say. An elephant rolling over can crush a lion. Daidoji beating Nagase Ichiro was like an adult beating a child. The scene was extremely brutal for a while, and everyone who saw it was in tears.

The disciples of Beichen Ittoryu were all excited and their faces were flushed, cheering loudly.

"Hit his face!"

"Choke, choke!"

"Cross armbar, end his breath!"

"Kill..."

The fifth generation referee did not call a halt to separate the two sides like in a formal match, after all, his own disciples had the upper hand. Looking at Daidoji Masashi who pinned his opponent to the ground and beat him violently, the old man was full of satisfaction, and felt that he saw the reincarnation of the sword saint Chiba Shusaku. As we all know, the founder is best at using the cut to cut off the opponent's weapon, and then using his strong body to suppress the opponent's fierce attack.

Fortunately, Ichiro Nagase is a decent man. Before the competition, he did not want to use the human sea tactics to bully Daidoji, so the latter also became a decent man and stopped after a few punches.

"Daodoji Masashi wins!" The fifth generation old man announced the result of the game.

Daidoji and Nagase stood up again, picked up the bamboo sword and bowed. The former sat down to rest directly on the spot, and a disciple of Beichen Ittoryu came to help him take off the armor and handed him a drink. The latter limped to the sidelines, and the minion Nishimura Ryuta helped him take off his protective gear.

"You've worked hard."

Fuji Xerox Group's Iguchi Ryo handed him a drink, and then asked curiously:

"How do you feel? Compared to the last match."

"Stronger."

Nagase took a big gulp of water and said with a wry smile:

"If I give him a spear, he just needs to swing it at will, and I will never get close to him in my life. Both his strength and physical strength are crushing. I suspect he drinks oil, and his physical strength has no limit at all."

"How about it, is it my turn to challenge next?"

Nishimura did not hide his idea of ​​humiliating Daidoji in a round-robin battle, but as soon as he said this, he was met with a cold look from Nagase Ichiro.

"Even with the tacit approval of the head of Beichen Ittoryu, if it goes too far, it will still be stopped."

Someone explained next to him.

"Then let him rest for ten minutes?"

"Hmm... or five minutes? You saw that even the exhausted Daidoji still had the strength to trip Nagase in an instant. If I go up to compete with him now, that guy is likely to use close combat tactics at the first time. I can't withstand his fists."

Iguchi Ryo said hesitantly. He is a decent man and has the dignity of a swordsman, but not much. Compared with decency and dignity, wantonly ravaging those who are stronger than himself obviously makes him more excited.

Nagase Ichiro did not speak and ignored the conspirators around him. He did not agree with the round-robin battle, but he did not have the sense of justice to stop his friends. He just wanted to be true to his heart.

Five minutes passed in a flash. Before Ryo Iguchi and his group could make a move, Daidoji, who was in the center of the circle, stood up. He put his mask on his waist, looked down on everyone, and said loudly:

"Who wants to compete next?"

There were still streaks of sweat on his face, and there was heat rising from his hair. Although he was tired, his whole body was full of more vigor.

Ryo Iguchi had the idea of ​​retreating for a moment. He was very sure that if he went up now, Daidoji Masaji would not accompany Nagase to exchange swordsmanship like before, but would instantly approach him and pull him to the ground to compete in judo.

But before he could hesitate, his fellow conspirators around him had already started to help him put on protective gear.

The two stood still in the field. As expected, as soon as the fifth generation gave the signal to start the game, Daidoji Masaji suddenly jumped in front of Ryo Iguchi, stretched out his thick calves at the moment when the bamboo swords crossed, and tripped his opponent effortlessly.

The most popular sword judo in the Metropolitan Police Department's kendo competition started again. In less than a minute, Iguchi Ryo shouted loudly that he had surrendered.

Another five-minute break, Daidoji in the center of the circle could no longer restrain his heavy breathing. Anyone with eyes open knew that this man's physical strength was on the verge of collapse, but when he stood up to challenge, no one spoke. I don't know if everyone was moved by his tragic strength or didn't want to go up and get beaten.

"In this case, I will rest for another five minutes. Please don't be polite and show everyone your kendo to your heart's content." Daidoji said and sat down again.

Ten minutes were up, and this time it was Miyazaki Masaru who stood up. The one who was rated as the top three in combat power among all the people present by Kanhara Michizane.

When this person came out, Nagase Ichiro and Iguchi Ryo, who were pulled to the ground and beaten, felt that Daidoji would have a hard time winning this time.

Because Mr. Miyazaki Masaru was a policeman from Osaka Prefecture, he was very familiar with "sword judo" and had won many times in previous competitions with ground techniques.

The disciples of Beichen Ittoryu all changed color when they saw Miyazaki Masaru. The previous Kyuunen Tenin stood up, wanting to make full use of his power to help the eldest brother consume the opponent's physical strength, but was rejected by Daidoji.

"Mr. Miyazaki, it's been a long time."

Daidoji stood up calmly. (End of this chapter)
