Chapter 81 Samurai Assembly (7)

The next day, the second round of the Samurai Tournament officially started.

However, Karasawa Kosuke was not fully awake because of his serious injury in the preliminary round, so he was unable to continue playing.

There are only fifteen players left out of sixteen, so one player has a bye.

The opponents Tenichi Nohara and Sakumo Hatake met were warriors from other schools of the Iron Kingdom. Although these two warriors had excellent swordsmanship and broke through the siege in the preliminary round, they were still easily defeated by Tenichi Nohara. .

After a whole day of fierce competition, the top eight soon appeared.

Nohara Tenichi, Hatake Sakumo, Mifune and two samurai from the Iron Country, two samurai from the Rain Country, and the last samurai from the Thunder Country, Nohara Ten had the deepest impression on him. Goro Shimada uses the extremely rare three-sword style swordsmanship.

The competition on the third day was more intense than the previous two days, and two players died directly on the field.

Nohara Tenichi and Hatake Sakumo were much stronger than these samurai, and they kept their lives in their hands.

In the other two battles, there was not much difference in the strength of the four of them. If they want to decide the winner, they basically have to fight with their lives. The opponent must have used all his strength, and it is not easy to keep his hands when he unleashes a killing blow.

The top four list also appeared, Nohara Tenichi, Hatake Sakumo, Mifune, Shimada Goro.

Among the four, Tenichi Nohara and Sakumo Hatake are in better condition, while Mifune and Goro Shimada are more or less injured.

The next day, the four of them stood on the high platform, drawing their next opponents.

Nohara Tenichi VS Mifune, Hatake Sakumo VS Shimada Goro.

Nohara Tianyi's match started first, and the two sides quickly entered the ring.

Mifune saluted Nohara Tian and his party, and said, "Boss Nohara, I haven't thanked you for saving Heisuke before."

"No need, it's all right." Nohara Tianyi waved his hand and said.

"However, Boss Nohara, I really didn't expect that your swordsmanship is so good! It's almost comparable to my master!" Mifune looked at Nohara Tenichi and said in admiration.

He originally thought that Nohara Tianyi only had a rough grasp of the way of swordsmanship. After all, for a young man in his teens, being able to achieve such an achievement in sword casting was considered very good.

Now, he has shown his incomparable kendo talent, which is really unbelievable!

"Today's match, please show your true strength to guide me."

Mifune drew out his sword, sincerely showed Nohara Ten and his party a samurai etiquette, and said respectfully.

The corner of Nohara Tianyi's mouth twitched, I showed my real strength, two ships are not enough for me to fight, let alone you.

The battle between the two officially began.

"Household Slash!"

Mifune attacked first, appeared in front of Nohara Tianyi in an instant, and slashed straight down!

This blow has the potential to break through!

The speed is so fast that it has surpassed Mifune's own limit, and it can be said that it is the peak sword in his life.

"Oh—." Nohara Tianyi was also amazed by this sword.

Yesterday he ended the war early and watched the game of the three boats and several people carefully.

At that time, Mifune's Iai swordsmanship was more than [-]% slower than what he is doing now. He never thought that he could make such an improvement in just one night.

"Yan back!"

At such a short distance, even Nohara Tianyi had no time to draw his sword. Using Yan Fan, he turned over in the air and thrust out two swords in succession.

The first sword stabbed out directly with the scabbard, but it happened to be withdrawn with the help of Mifune's attack, and then the second sword pointed directly at Mifune's chest.

Seeing this, Mifune was shocked, and one of them fell back on the ground, but was scratched by Nohara Tenichi because he didn't dodge in time.

Nohara Tianyi smiled, although he didn't strike with all his strength, the speed of this sword had already surpassed the range that Mifune could dodge.

However, the three ships at this time avoided the sword at the cost of minor injuries, which far exceeded Nohara Tianyi's expectations.

"As expected of Mifune! The future general of the Iron Kingdom."

The latter sentence is naturally spoken in my heart.

However, Mifune's performance is indeed very impressive. He is one of the rare opponents who is very calm in battle.

Although this guy has always used the so-called belief as the standard in his heart, he has maintained absolute calm all the time.

It can be said to be a contradiction, but it is precisely because of this contradiction that the three ships in the future can be brought forward.

Nohara Tenichi was not in a hurry to decide the outcome with Mifune, but had been fighting with him with slightly stronger strength than him. If it wasn't for the huge gap in strength, Nohara Tenichi might really be defeated by Mifune.

Mifune is a samurai who becomes stronger as he fights. Every step he takes against Nohara Tenichi is the most reasonable deployment, and it is also because of this that he can fight fiercely to such an extent.

But even so, the wounds on Mifune's body are slowly increasing, and it has reached the point where he will die due to excessive blood loss.

"Faith?" Nohara Tenichi said as he looked at the man who was supporting himself.

At this time, Mifune was already at the end of his strength, and he also knew that the gap between himself and Nohara Tianyi was not even a star, but his belief and will as a samurai did not allow him to surrender.

He can only fall on the ring!
"Since you have already made up your mind, I will respond to you with the strongest slash!"

Looking at the samurai in front of him - Mifune, Nohara Tenichi said with admiration.

This strike was his strongest strike without using Chakra!
"Atomic Kendo - Atomic Severing Slash!"

This is the sword that Nohara Tianyi used to cut off the thousand-meter waterfall. After three years of blacksmithing, although Nohara Tianyi's strength has not improved much, his swordsmanship has become more and more pure.

The idea contained in this sword is pure to the extreme!

Mifune who stood opposite Nohara Tianyi felt this most deeply. Before he swung the sword, he had a feeling of being cut in half.

"Can I really block this sword?!"

Feeling the majestic momentum exuded by Nohara Tenichi, Mifune doubted himself for the first time.

The sword was about to explode at the touch of a button, and a huge slash capable of severing everything hit the three ships directly.

"Tianyi, are you already this strong?!"

At this time, Hatake Sakumo, who was standing outside the arena, was deeply shocked by the sword issued by Nohara Tenichi.

"Such a slash, in terms of swordsmanship alone, you have already stood at the pinnacle of the ninja world, Tianyi!"

Compared to Hatake Sakumo's shock, the tremendous oppression that Mifune endured while standing on the ring facing the sword was even more unimaginable.

This sword, in order to cut off the waterfall, has both speed, attack power, and follow-up power. It can be said to be a perfect sword move!
Clenching the sword in both hands, Mifune gritted his teeth, trying to take the sword forcefully.
