Ogata said as he tightened his sleeves with a cuff belt:

"Ishikawa Kenkan's Toyama Renichiro is a very unreasonable person - exactly as rumored to be......"

"Huh." The corners of Yuanshan's mouth twitched, and a sneer came out, "Thank you for the compliment." Thanks to my 'unreasonableness', my brothers and sisters love me so much. ”

Although Toyama's unreasonable behavior, Ogata does not appreciate it very much.

But Ogata had to admit that there was some truth to what Toyama had just said.

The junior brother was beaten, and Yuanshan immediately stood up for him, and immediately set off to avenge his junior brother - there are such righteous people to support themselves, if the senior brothers of Yuanshan do not love Yuanshan, it is more strange.

"Ogata-sama!" Aki on the side said urgently, "Do you still want to fight this person?" ”

"If you don't fight, you can't do it." As soon as Aki's words fell, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said in a half-joking tone, "Miss Aki, haven't you understood yet?" I'm in a situation where I have to fight now, and if I don't fight against the distant mountains, I must be at peace tonight. ”

"Huh." Yuan Shan seemed to like to sneer, "Are you very knowledgeable about current affairs, thanks to your knowledge of current affairs, we have saved us a lot of trouble." ”

"If you insist on not fighting me, we will have to spend some effort to force you to fight me."

At this point, Toyama just finished fastening his cuff.

The next moment when he tied the cuff, Yuan Shan turned his head and shouted to the junior brother beside him:

"Bring the sword!"

As soon as Yuan Shan's words fell, the junior disciple beside him immediately hurriedly handed over the two wooden swords that had been prepared long ago.

"And then." After taking the two wooden swords, Toyama casually threw one of them to Ogata.

"You're pretty careful." Ogata, who took the wooden sword thrown by the distant mountain, waved it casually a few times, confirming whether he had the wooden sword in his hand, "Know to prepare the wooden sword in advance." ”

After that, after confirming that there was no problem with the wooden sword in his hand, he didn't bother to say anything more to Yuanshan.

Grasp the hilt of the wooden sword with both hands and take a mid-stance.

"Ogata Ease, sage."

The distant mountains on the opposite side are also in a mid-section stance.

"Toyama Renjiro, participate."

The guests in the drift house came out again at this time.

In one night, I was able to see two samurai duels in a row, which are rarely seen in a row, not to mention how excited the guests of the Flowing House were.

Misaki and Ah Fu saw that they had no way to stop this competition, so they could only keep their mouths closed as they did just now, and looked nervously at the "battlefield" where the atmosphere gradually became tense.

……

……

At the next moment when Yuanshan put on a mid-section posture, Xu Yi saw that Yuanshan was very strong.

And not generally strong.

In terms of strength, it is far above the Itagaki he just dealt with.

After both of them put on a mid-section stance, the two had been at a stalemate for a long time.

However, even after such a long stalemate, Ogata couldn't see any flaws in Toyama's body.

The distant mountains are like an unshakable mountain—that's what Ogata really thinks at this time.

Encountering such a strong enemy for the first time made Ogata can't help but cheer up his spirits.

His eyes were staring at the distant mountains opposite, and he didn't even dare to blink his eyes more.

- Do you want me to attack first......

Ogata secretly planned countermeasures in his own mind.

- If you want to launch the first attack...... It's better to use the "dragon tail" to test it first......

- How strong the distant mountains really are, this kind of thing is not yet known.

- So for the sake of safety, we have to test first......

The tip of a wooden sword rapidly enlarged in Ogata's eyes.

The wooden sword, which was rapidly enlarged in his eyes, directly interrupted Ogata's thoughts.

Ogata's pupils shrank in shock, and then subconsciously raised the wooden sword in his hand.

Syllable!

A dull thud exploded.

Ogata raised his sword in time to open the sword that had been stabbed from the distant mountain.

- So fast!

- When did he launch the stabbing attack in the distant mountains!

Ogata was sure that he hadn't blinked or relaxed just now.

I've always been tense and engrossed in staring at the distant mountains.

However, even so, Ogata's eyes could not keep up with the speed of the distant mountains.

Before Ogata could breathe a sigh of relief, Toyama's next attack came.

After the sword in his hand was opened by Ogata, Toyama quickly withdrew the sword in his hand, and then switched to an upper stance, swinging his sword towards Ogata's shoulder.

Syllable!

Another dull thud exploded.

Ogata once again blocked Toyama's attack.

However, Ogata's defense this time is even more dangerous than the last one.

- Oops!

Ogata shouted anxiously in his heart.

- My rhythm was completely disrupted by the distant mountains! I am led by the nose by the distant mountains!

- You have to readjust your posture!

- If you don't adjust your posture quickly, you will ......

Ogata didn't have time to spit out the word "lose" in his mind.

The 3rd wave of attack from the distant mountains has arrived.

What Toyama used this time was a straight stab that was so fast that Ogata's eyes couldn't keep up.

The speed of the distant mountains is too fast.

When Ogata blocked it for the first time, there was some element of luck in it.

And this time...... Lady luck didn't take care of Ogata.

Boom!

Ogata, who didn't have time to block the thorn of the distant mountain, was firmly pierced in the chest by the tip of the sword of the distant mountain.

If it was a real sword competition, Ogata who was stabbed in the chest would have been dead.

After taking a few steps back, Ogata was already on his back.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Ogata's left hand, which was not holding the sword, clutched the place where he had been stabbed, and coughed violently.

Misaki and Fuku: "Osika-sama! ”*2

Misaki and Fuku, shouting Ogata's name in unison, then rushed forward to inspect Ogata's injuries.

"I'm fine......" Ogata said in a deep voice as he lay on the ground.

"Huh."

Yuanshan let out his trademark sneer, and then slowly withdrew the sword he had just stabbed.

At the same time, in a mocking tone, he said:

"The disciple of the Sakakibara Sword Pavilion, is it only this level?"

As soon as Yuan Shan's words fell, the large group of senior brothers behind him immediately laughed out loud in a very cooperative manner.

In particular, the three companions who had just been defeated by Ogata and his three companions laughed the loudest, as if they wanted to dislocate their jaws.

The crowd of onlookers watching the excitement around them also resounded with a few low laughs.

Although Ogata wasn't killed by Toyama just now, it was almost like a second kill.

Less than a few seconds had passed between the time their swords met and the battle was over.

Defeat in less than a few seconds - this is really too embarrassing in the eyes of the onlookers who don't know swordsmanship.

"Let's go!"

Seeing that he had successfully avenged his junior brother, Yuan Shan shouted "Let's go" arrogantly, then turned around and prepared to go back with his junior brothers.

As for the wooden sword given to Ogata - they didn't bother to get it back.

However, no sooner had they turned around than a deep voice sounded behind them:

"Wait a minute...... Who said...... Did you win? ”
