Although Ogata has a relatively poor life, Ogata has never slackened off in the care of the saber.

It is time to oil and oil every day, and it is time to sharpen knives and sharpen knives.

Thanks to Ogata's unremitting slackness in saber care, Ogata will not fall into the dilemma of "the knife has not been cared for for for too long and can no longer be used" in today's real knife deathmatch.

When rushing towards the distant mountains, Ogata had already used the "Breath of the Source" and put himself into the state of "Breath of the Source", which temporarily increased the reflex nerve value by 1 point.

Ogata and the sword of the distant mountains are framed together, and the force sinks into the waist and wrestles with each other.

As long as the katana blades are held together, it is not easy to pull apart, and eventually it will naturally become a state of confrontation and wrestling with each other as it is now.

Ogata and Toyama are facing each other like this, competing with each other.

Under such a posture, whoever is exhausted first will have his head moved.

Ogata and Toyama's feet were firmly planted on the ground, and the other party gave a share of his strength, and he also returned a part of his strength.

The two gritted their teeth and glared at each other fiercely through their knives.

No one spoke.

Because both of them have poured all the strength in their bodies into wrestling, they have no extra energy to do anything else.

Ogata is about the same strength as Toyama.

In the case of similar strength, the taller side has the upper hand.

Ogata's size happens to be taller than Toyama.

What Toyama is best at is speed, not power.

Therefore, Toyama gradually discovered that if he fought hard with Ogata, he did not have an advantage.

So Yuanshan unloaded the force that was pressed up from the front to the horizon, intending to get out of the current confrontation situation.

Ogata, who saw Toyama's intentions, would not let Toyama get his wish.

Toyama unloaded the force horizontally, and Ogata also unloaded the force horizontally.

So the two of them kept their knives together, and ran horizontally on the ground paved with white sand.

And the direction in which the two ran was exactly the audience seat located on the north side of the competition field.

The nobles in the audience saw Ogata and Toyama running towards them with their knives in their hands, and they all turned pale with fright, and they all fled from their small stools.

Only Kuranaga still sat calmly in his place, watching intently at the death match that took place in front of his eyes.

Ogata and Toyama ran all the way to the front of the auditorium before stopping.

"Die!"

Toyama let out a loud shout, then slammed forward, knocking Ogata out of the way, forcibly interrupting the confrontation.

After knocking Ogata away, Toyama waved the knife in his hand and slashed at Ogata, who had pulled away from him by 1 step.

And after being knocked away by Toyama, Ogata's body also subconsciously moved, and used bird thorns on Toyama.

Both of their knives hit each other.

Toyama's knife struck Ogata in the left shoulder.

Ogata's knife stabbed Toyama in the right chest.

After both hit each other, the two of them took a few steps back and jumped out of the range of their attacks in one go.

- It hurts!

Ogata only felt his left shoulder burning now.

At the same time, I also felt that the clothes on my left shoulder began to slowly become wet.

The blood from the wound on his left shoulder soaked Ogata's clothes on his left shoulder in an instant.

This was the first time Ogata had been slashed by a real knife.

The constant pain in his left shoulder almost made Ogata unable to maintain his "Gen no Breath".

Luckily, Ogata's left shoulder wasn't deep.

It hurts, but it doesn't affect Ogata's ability to use his left arm much.

Toyama's slash just now didn't succeed in leaving a deep enough wound and a large enough wound on Ogata, and Ogata's attack just now didn't bring any fatal damage to Toyama either.

Just now, after the tip of Ogata's sword stabbed Toyama's left chest, Ogata felt like he had stabbed something hard.

This is the rib of the distant mountain.

Because Toyama's ribs blocked Ogata's stabbing blow, Ogata's stab just now didn't cause much damage to Toyama.

But it can be seen that Ogata's attack just now also hurt Toyama.

The proof is that Yuanshan's face turned pale at this time, and cold sweat continued to break out on his forehead due to pain.

The two of them took a few breaths, adjusted their breathing, which had become a little messy from the pain, and then re-grasped the swords in their hands and rushed towards each other.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

Ogata's knife collided with Toyama's knife 3 times in mid-air.

As a result, the blades of the two of them have 3 more gaps.

After the two of them collided again and again, Toyama quickly let go of his left hand, which was holding the hilt, and grabbed at Ogata's right arm, which was holding the sword.

Looking at the left hand stretched out by Toyama, Ogata's pupils shrank slightly, and he hurriedly pulled his arms back, narrowly avoiding Toyama's hand.

This is also a very common way to attack - take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, reach out and grab the enemy's sword-holding arm, and control the enemy's movements.

Ogata, who dodged Toyama's attack, retightened his grip on the knife in his hand and threw himself towards Toyama.

The sound of blades striking each other, interspersed with the muffled sound of a few blades entering the flesh from time to time.

Toyama is determined to kill Ogata even if he dies, and in the face of some of Ogata's attacks that are not fatal, Toyama simply does not block, and uses his body to hard-catch Ogatata's attacks, and at the same time exchange for the opportunity to fight back against Ogata.

Therefore, in just the blink of an eye, both Ogata and Toyama had a lot of wounds on their bodies.

- No...... We can't do that anymore......

After reuniting with Toyama, Ogata wiped away the blood that had been running down his forehead while thinking about what to do.

Just now, Toyama successfully slashed Ogata again, and the part that Toyama slashed this time was Ogata's forehead.

However, the wound was not deep, it was just a little scraped skin.

At this time, these wounds on the two of them are not fatal, so this death match is far from over.

In terms of strength, Toyama at this time is actually slightly worse than Ogata.

After all, Ogata's agility is now as high as 8, and his reflex nerve has been increased to 9 thanks to the use of "Gen no Breath".

At the same time, Ogata now has the defensive skill of "Blade Reversal".

Ogata has now relied on the blade to fight back, and he has opened up the distant mountains for an unknown number of attacks.

However, although Toyama is now slightly less powerful than Ogata, Toyama has enough to make up for this small gap - bravery, and determination not to die.

These wounds on Ogata's body were basically caused by Toyama giving up his defense and choosing to exchange injuries for injuries.

Ogata had already figured out that even if he did defeat Toyama in the end, he would definitely pay a big price.

Oke didn't want to get too injured or directly disabled in order to defeat Toyama.

Therefore, Ogata stared at the distant mountains and thought about the best way to deal with the enemy.

……

……

"What's wrong? Ogata Esaki. Yuan Shan, who had adjusted his breathing, let out his trademark sneer, "What are you doing there?" Don't attack it yet! ”

“…… I'm just thinking about how to cut off your head beautifully. ”

"Hmph, have you figured out a way now?"

"It's a coincidence, just when you asked me 'what's wrong', I happened to come up with a way to kill you with one sword."

With that, Ogata turned his sword upside down and plunged it directly into the ground paved with white sand at his feet.

Ogata looks like he is using a knife as a crutch and holding it on the ground.

Whether it was the spectators in the audience, the people at the Sakakiwara Sword Museum, or the people at the Ishikawa Sword Museum, they all let out a big or small exclamation after seeing Ogata's strange sword-holding posture.
