It was about ten o'clock in the morning.

Since the high school kendo tournament and the Juggernaut title tournament are cross-contested, Ritsu Ninomiya completed the first round of the individual and team competitions of the morning high school kendo tournament without any break, and immediately faced the opponent of the Juggernaut title, Haruhiko Fujitani.

"Ergong Baduan, please advise."

Although Haruhiko Fujitani knew that he was not Ritsu Ninomiya's opponent, when he saw Ritsu Ninomiya panting, he immediately had a glimmer of hope in his heart, just like yesterday's Shima Hanbei Kudan.

What if!?

If Ritsu Ninomiya loses to his men by mistake due to lack of physical strength, won't he have a chance to advance?

The idea is wonderful.

It's just that what he doesn't know is that more than one person thought so yesterday.

Facts have proven it.

It's that they think too much.

The gap between a kendo master and a kendo master is sometimes bigger than the gap between a kendo master and a kendo beginner.

"Noodles!"

After Ritsu Ninomiya breathed a sigh of relief, Haruhhiko Fujitani lost the first game on the spot.

Spikes.

It's the same as yesterday, it's a spike.

What made Fujitani Haruhiko feel the most devastated, Ninomiya Ritsu not only killed him in seconds, but also directly hit him in the face.

I have to say, this face hurts.

Also because of this sword.

directly knocked out his luck mentality.

Emaciated camels are bigger than horses.

Although Ritsu Ninomiya was pulled too much physical strength by the high school kendo tournament, the gap between the level of kendo between him and Ritsu Ninomiya was too big, and even if the opportunity was in front of him, he couldn't grasp it.

Probably only Asama and Kondo are the strongest kendo.

In order to seize the opportunity of the second palace law's physical exhaustion, the second palace law was slashed under the sword.

The pace of kendo competitions is fast-paced.

After the first inning, the second inning will start immediately.

But affected by the loss at the speed of light in the first game, his state was already very wrong at this time, and he knew that continuing to face Ritsu Ninomiya in his current state would only be more unbearable than the first game, and he couldn't even play the strength he should have.

And there was only one chance left for him.

If you lose the second game again.

He will say goodbye to this stage directly, how can he be willing?

Like he said before.

If you can't win Ninomiya Ritsu, you have to play at least three rounds.

Therefore, he raised his hand to indicate that he was not feeling well and wanted to stop the game.

With the approval of the referee.

He had a three-minute break.

As soon as he returned to the rest area, Hideki Ichinose hurriedly handed him water: "Fujitani-san, are you okay?" ”

"Thank you Ichinose-san for your concern, I'm fine, but I didn't expect the strength of Ninomiya Hachidan to be so strong, and I felt a lot of pressure." Haruhiko Fujitani smiled reluctantly, without the idea of continuing the conversation.

After all, the timeout is only three minutes.

He has to hurry up to adjust his state, and even if he wants to lose in the second game, he must give full play to his strength and let himself have no regrets.

I saw my friend sweating profusely.

He wanted to ask, is there really that much pressure?

At the same time, he finally had a very intuitive feeling about Haruhiko Fujitani's previous evaluation of Ninomiya Ritsu.

It turned out that he was not exaggerating.

I was able to put a friend who was the strongest in kendo, and I was sweating profusely and had to apply for a suspension.

That's enough to see here.

This student of my daughter is so wicked in the field of kendo.

Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

This time, Haruhiko Fujitani finally adjusted his form, and he thought that he could give full play to his strength in the second game.

"Ninomiya Hachidan, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

He apologized first, and then said in a firm tone: "I know that you didn't use all your strength in the first game, so in the second game, I want to ask you to be serious, at least let me know the gap between me and the top kendo masters." ”

"I see, then Fujitani Hachidan, please give me a lot of advice in the second game."

Ninomiya Ritsu agreed, and the eight and nine dan who played against him in the past two days, once they lost the first game, they would make similar requests, and he basically wouldn't refuse.

After the squatting ceremony.

Haruhiko Fujitani and Ritsu Ninomiya stand opposite each other with their swords, making a mid-section frame pose.

"Trunk!"

Ninomiya Ritsu snapped together, exerting all the strength of the master-level kendo, and the speed of the attack was incredibly fast.

Bang!

When the bamboo knife slashed at Haruhiko Fujitani's waist, he didn't even react, and still maintained the mid-section frame pose.

Three referees waved flags at the same time.

The attack was declared invalid.

“……”

Ninomiya Ritsu's face darkened, and he almost couldn't scold.

In a kendo match, if the opponent stays in the middle of the attack, the attack is not effective.

In other words.

Just now, because his sword was too fast, Haruhiko Fujitani couldn't react, so he kept his mid-stage state motionless, causing his attack to become an ineffective attack, and he had to start the game again.

Harukiko Fujitani was embarrassed to find a hole to get into.

He didn't deliberately stand still and let Ritsu Ninomiya's attack be ruled invalid.

It's that he's too vegetable.

In the face of Ninomiya Ritsu's full force, he couldn't react at all.

……

This side of the rest area.

Next to Ichinose and his wife, several kendo eight dans suddenly started to talk.

"Fujitani-san really doesn't know how to count it."

"With his strength, he is embarrassed to ask the second palace and eight sections to go all out."

"Don't say cool words, the sword just now, which of you is sure of the next?"

"That's true, I really can't blame Fujitani-san."

"After all, the eighth rank of the second palace is a strong contender for the title of Sword Master."

"With such a comparison, I suddenly felt that yesterday Shima Ban Jiudan was worthy of being the first person in Osaka Prefecture to do kendo, at least the Shima Ban Jiudan and the Ninomiya 8th Dan were still the same."

“……”

There was a lot of talking.

At this moment, Hideki Ichinose suddenly didn't want to object to his daughter and Ninomiya Ritsu.

Exclude students and teachers.

Ninomiya Ritsu is simply the most ideal son-in-law candidate in his mind.

As a university professor, he actually doesn't look down on those rich second-generation straw bales, on the contrary, the talented type of Ninomiya Law simply poked his heart.

He even began to fantasize.

Pull Ninomiya Ritsu to Kyoto University, and when he graduates from his bachelor's degree, let him take his own monk's exam.

So.

The marriage of his baby daughter to his protégé is simply the most perfect script for him.

He immediately whispered to his wife, "Yuko, you ...... you"

"Put your good things aside for a while."

Yuko Ichinose directly saw through her husband's thoughts, and said angrily: "Ninomiya-kun's talent is worthy of recognition, but the matter about Naoto Ando has not yet been clarified, so don't rush to conclusions for the time being." ”

"That's what I said."

Hideki Ichinose didn't refute it, but in his heart, he no longer thought that Ritsu Ninomiya was the kind of sinister and cunning person.

Just as the two were talking.

On the stage, the game between Ritsu Ninomiya and Haruhiko Fujitani has finally come to an end.

The winner is self-evident, and it is naturally the law of the second house.
