Chapter 252: Take the knife

Ogata's knife is fine, with only 7 or 8 gaps in the blade.

And his threat is a bit miserable, just by visual inspection, the number of gaps on the blade is more than 10.

In a word, the two knives in Ogata's hands are in a state of "although they are not broken, they are not far from being broken".

"I'd like to see how long you can hold on with these two broken knives in your hand!"

With that, Kazumi picked up the big naginata in his hand again and slashed at Ogata.

……

……

Amachi did as Ogata told him and hid away from Ogata and Ichijun. But instead of leaving the 3rd floor, he shrank in a corner of the 3rd floor, keeping an eye on the battle between Ogata and Kazujun.

Therefore, Amachi, who has good eyesight, naturally noticed the two knives in Ogata's hand, which were already full of gaps.

Looking at Ogata's two broken knives, Amachi's face showed anxiety.

The first thought that came to Amachi's mind was to support Ogata.

But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she dispelled it herself.

Her iron cannon had been trampled by Ichikazu, and there was no way to support Ogata with long-range fire.

Although there are still a few kunai tied around his waist, the pain in his right arm and left foot affects Amachi's state.

Amachi's kunai projection skills are mediocre.

Now that Ogata is grappling with Ichikata, even in his heyday, Amachi can't guarantee that his kunai will definitely be able to shoot Ichimazu without avoiding Ogata.

In his heyday, he didn't dare to guarantee the accuracy of his kunai, let alone in the current situation where his body suffered a lot of injuries.

- Those 2 broken knives won't last long......

Amachi said anxiously in his heart.

- If you want to break the "Demon Monk", at least you must have a treasure knife that can match the "Demon Monk"'s big naginata knife......!

Although Amachi didn't know how to use swords, she could still tell at a glance that the big naginata sword used by Ichichioshi was not extraordinary.

After all, the quality of the Naginata knife used by Ichsumi is visible to the naked eye: after using the "top" just now, Ogata's knife has a lot more gaps, while Ichsumi's Onagi knife is unscathed.

Because of the attack distance, Ogata had the upper hand because of this.

And now due to the difference in the quality of weapons, its own disadvantages have been further expanded......

- New knives are needed!

Amachi said secretly in his heart as he struggled to get up from the corner where he was hiding.

At present, the only place in this mansion where there is a knife should be the battlefield in the corridor on the first floor.

Although the swords inserted in the corridor may have been exhausted by Ogata and Mamiya, there should still be many swords on the bodies of those dead shogunate soldiers.

It's just that the knives on these shogunate soldiers must be quite ordinary and defective......

In terms of quality, it may be similar to the two knives that Ogata is using now.

- Isn't there a better knife......

As he limped towards the staircase, Amachi couldn't help but pray in his heart that he would be able to meet one or two good quality knives on the first floor.

At that moment, Amachi felt as if a lightning bolt crossed his mind.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Sokai had said to her and Ogata on the night 2 days ago.

Memories kept coming out of Amachi's mind like bubbles spit out by fish.

And Amachi's eyes gradually lit up as a result.

The feet that were limping towards the staircase also became more powerful with the light in her eyes.

Because he was walking too fast, Amachi fell to the ground several times.

Amachi stumbled down the stairs to the second floor, looking for the figure of Konnosuke.

The villagers who were originally hiding on the 3rd floor fled to the 2nd floor due to Yijun's sudden attack.

After seeing Amachi descending the stairs, the villagers at the top of the stairs turned their panicked and uneasy eyes on Amachi.

"That...... How's it going upstairs now......? ”

A villager asked Amachi with a shudder.

The sudden attack really scared them all.

However, Ah Machi ignored the villager's question, and asked the villager urgently:

"Where's Kinnosuke?"

"Huh?"

"Answer quickly! Don't grind! Where's him near nosuke?! ”

"He, he's there......" one villager gestured to the other end of the corridor beside him, "but he ......"

Before he could finish the second half of the villager's words, Amachi hurriedly ran in the direction of the villager's finger.

Following this corridor to the bottom, Amachi finally saw the figure of Konnosuke.

Merely...... After seeing the figure of Konnosuke, Amachi felt as if his chest had suddenly been stuffed into a large stone, and it instantly became heavy.

Becauseβ€”even though I saw near help.

But at this time, Konnosuke was lying on the ground with his eyes closed.

The two people who knelt next to Konnosuke were still known to Amachi - the only maid in the Konnosuke family, and Matsumoto Kiyohito.

After the Shogunate launched a night attack on Toyowa Village just now, Matsumoto Kiyohito was lucky enough to escape this wave of attacks by the Shogunate Army and hid in the mansion of Konnosuke.

Matsumoto, who was kneeling beside Konnosuke, tied a white cloth to Konnosuke's body with a solemn face.

As for the maid near the house, her eyes were red, and she looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

"What's going on?" Amachi asked Matsumoto in a hurry, while lying on his side of Konnosuke, "What's wrong with Konnosuke?" ”

"Konnosuke had lost too much blood. Temporary loss of consciousness due to excessive blood loss. Matsumoto said in a deep voice, "Although I have given him emergency treatment, he should not be able to wake up for a while." ”

"Can't wake up?!" Amachi's beautiful eyes widened in astonishment.

"Hey! Near no Suke! Wake up! Wake up! I have important questions for you! ”

"Miss Amachi...... It's useless. Matsumoto sighed lightly, "I don't know what you want to ask Konnosuke, though. But if you shout like this, you can't wake up Kunosuke. ”

After the anxious look on ......'s face became a little stronger, Amachi turned his gaze to the maid beside him, "Since Konnosuke is unconscious, forget it!" ”

"You've been working in their family for years, right?"

"I ask you! Do you remember 2 knives! ”

"It's the 2 treasure swords that Master Kyokai of Tenmanji Temple gave to Konnosuke! Great Liberation and Great Freedom! ”

"Knife ......?" The maid's face first showed a look of shock and confusion, and then as if she was slowly remembering something, the confusion in her eyes gradually faded, and a light appeared, "Yes, there is such a thing. ”

"After receiving the 2 swords from Master Kyokai, he stored them in the storage room!"

"Storage?" Amachi screamed, "Is that the room with three large cabinets?!" ”

"Hmm." The maid nodded vigorously, "Kinnosuke-sama put those two knives in a cabinet in the storage room!" But I don't know where to put it......"

"Hmm...... After letting out a frustrated snort, Amachi stood up, "...... You come with me. ”

"Me?" The maid pointed to herself in surprise.

"That's right! It's you! Come with me to the storage room! If you don't come with me, I'll cut you with a knife!" Matsumoto, I'll leave it to you to take care of you! ”

After leaving this cruel sentence, Amachi limped and rushed towards the storage room on the second floor with his memory.

Amachi's intimidation just now had no small effect.

The maid, who was frightened by Amachi's naked intimidation just now, turned pale, stood up tremblingly, and followed Amachi.

On the way to the storage room, you can see many villagers hiding in the corridor.

"Hey! You! It's you! Follow me! ”

"Huh? Ganshi ......"

"Don't ask so much! Just follow me! ”

……

"And you! Come with me! Don't ask me why! Just follow me! ”

……

On the way to the storage room, Amachi named many villagers she met along the way and asked them to follow her.

Because at this time, Amachi had a fierce appearance, with an unquestionable tone, and his appearance was quite scary.

Those who were named by Amachi were frightened by Amachi's appearance, and like the maid, they followed behind Amachi with trembling.

When he came to the door of the storage room, there were as many as six people following him, including the maid.

When I opened the paper sliding door of the storage room, the three large lockers and more than 200 cabinets and buckets immediately caught Amachi's eye.

Looking at the more than 200 lockers in front of him, Amachi couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle.

But she immediately came back to her senses, gritted her teeth, and shouted to the maid and others behind her:

"Help me pull open all the cupboards here and help me find 2 knives! A knife and a wakicha! Move fast! ”

With that, Amachi rushed to the nearest locker and pulled out the bucket in the bottom left corner of the locker - empty.

Annoyed, he tossed the empty bucket aside, and Amachi raised his hand to reach for another bucket next to him.

"What are you still doing in a daze!" After pulling out the second bucket, Amachi shouted impatiently to the maids and others who were still stunned, "Why don't you hurry up and help me find a knife!" ”

Hearing this roar from Amachi, the maid and the others finally walked into the room with hindsight, and ran to the various places of the three large lockers, rummaging through the locations of Da Shi Tian and Da Zi Zi one by one.

That's why Amachi asked the maid and others to follow her - let these people help her find a knife.

When he first infiltrated Kinnosuke's mansion, Amachi visited this storage room once and knew how much it was.

That's why Amachi chose to bring in six helpers instead of seven or more people - with the size of the storage room, a maximum of seven people, including her, were allowed to rummage through it, and if there were too many people, they would start to get in the way of each other.

- Hurry! Come on!

Amachi anxiously rummaged through each of the cabinets in front of him with his uninjured left arm, and secretly prayed in his heart that he would see the figures of Da Shi Tian and Da Zi in the next cup.

Even on the second floor, Amachi could still hear the sound of fights coming from the third floor......

And the constant sound of fighting from the ceiling overhead made Amachi even more agitated.

Amachi couldn't tell whether his left arm, which was rummaging through the cupboards, was trembling from the pain of the wounds on his body, or whether he was trembling from anxiety......

……

……

"You kid is really kind......"

Kazujun casually kicked away a wooden table at her feet that had just been smashed by her, and said to Ogata in front of him.

"The first time I saw you, I saw that you weren't in good shape."

"You must have fought a lot of people before you fought me, right?"

"When he was not in good health, he dared to rush up and confront me. And I've been fighting with me until now. ”

"I can't help but praise your courage and strength."

As soon as Yichun's words fell, Xu Yi frowned slightly and used a displeased tone.

"Shut up, I just feel like throwing up when I hear compliments from people like you."

"Someone like me?" Yichun raised his eyebrows, and a meaningful look appeared on his face, "It's not right what you said." ”

"What do you mean by 'someone like me'?"

"Aren't you the same kind as me?"

"Do you think I can't see it?"

At this point, Yichun's gaze froze.

"The first time I saw you, I couldn't just tell that you weren't in good shape."

"I also saw that you were just like me - people with blood on their hands."

"It's probably induction between the same kind."

"How many people have died at your hands now?"

"A hundred? Two hundred? ”

"According to my estimate, it should be two hundred, right?"

"You and I are both executioners who have killed countless people, you and I are the same kind, where do you have the face to question me 'people like you'?"

"Shut up!" Ogata exclaimed, "Don't compare me to people like you! ”

The reason why I quietly listened to Yichun talking so much nonsense just now was purely to buy time to adjust my physical state and adjust my breathing.

At this moment, Ogata, who had adjusted his physical condition, no longer hesitated as soon as the words fell, and raised the twin knives in his hand and threw himself at Ichimazu.

Call!

The battle began again, and Kazujun swung the big naginata in his hand and slashed at Ogata who was rushing towards him.

Looking at the oncoming blade of the naginata, Xu did not change his color, jumped to the side with both feet, and quickly dodged Yichun's slash, and then turned the blade of the double knife in his hand and stabbed towards Yichun.

"Kiri...... faced with the twin blade tips that stabbed at him, Ichimazu's face sank, and he quickly took a few steps back, widening the distance between himself and Ogata, and managed to avoid Ogata's stabbing.

- This guy......

Yichun couldn't help but say in a deep voice in his heart.

- I am getting used to fighting with people with long weapons......
