I teach kendo in Tokyo

Kuixingqi was originally held in Akita City, Akita Prefecture every March, but for some reason it was changed to July every year since last year.

Some say it is to facilitate the participation of high school kendo clubs from all over Japan, and some say it is to compete with the Gyokuryu Flag in Western Japan - the Gyokuryu Flag is also held in July.

Anyway, Kazuma lined up with everyone in the Akita Prefectural Martial Arts Hall, and it felt like participating in a school sports meeting.

He even had auditory hallucinations and thought he heard athletes' marches.

The place where the bamboo swords are inspected is relatively close to where the North Gurashi High School queues up.

What was being inspected now was the bamboo sword from the north of Daji Mountain. Kazuma saw several members of the Quan Jianlian carefully inspecting the bamboo sword.

They even brought over electronic scales and weighed the bamboo knives one by one.

These were inspections specifically for Dajishan North High School. When Kazuma and his school just received the inspection, it was just a formality.

Kazuma brought six bamboo knives, two for outside use and four in spare bags. When they just checked, no one from the Quan Jianlian even asked Kazuma to open the bag of spare bamboo knives.

Speaking of which - I always feel that the spare bamboo knife is a bit heavy.

Kazuma didn't think much about it, thinking that maybe his sister was just worried and stuffed a few more bamboo knives in.

If this is the case, then you have to thank Chiyoko. When facing someone who can break a bamboo sword, it is always good to have a few bamboo swords.

At this time, the inspection of Dajishan Beigao was finally over. Several members of the Quanjian Federation who were responsible for the inspection gathered together to discuss, and then told the people at Dajishan Beigao that they could take away the swords.

A semi-bald middle-aged man shook his head in Kazuma's direction.

Kazuma knew this should be a signal to Nanjo.

As expected, Nanjo whispered to Kazuma: There is no problem with the sword.

Then maybe the knife in question was not brought in, or it was hidden somewhere by some other method. Kazuma said.

Mikako: It's the toilet, it's taped behind the flush toilet tank!

That's how American gangsters hide their pistols, right? A bamboo knife is so long that it can't be hidden, Kazuma complained.

Although it was 1980, the incomparable classic The Godfather has obviously been filmed and has been widely circulated in Japan. Even Mikako has seen it.

Dajishan Beigao and his party passed by Kazuma and the others carrying the inspected knives and went to their positions in formation.

Nakato Endo didn't look at Kazuma at all, and his attention was entirely on Kaigata High School, which faced Oyoshiyama Hoku High School in the first round.

But the four people behind Endo Nakato looked at Kazuma with ill intentions.

Mikako: I'm a little creepy.

You're not going to play. Kazuma said.

Next came the organizer's speech and the contestant representatives' oaths. This whole set of things was exactly the same as the sports games and military training in my immediate life.

After everything was settled, the Kuixing Banner National High School Kendo Conference finally began.

**

Noriaki Yamadan closed the circuit box of the fire alarm device at the Prefectural Martial Arts Hall.

If possible, he didn't want to do this.

But now he has invested too many resources in this task, and it would be too bad if he doesn't produce some results.

But the good news is that the Endo Nakato is more useful than imagined. He is basically a lunatic and has a brain problem. In this case, neither the prosecutors nor the police may accept his testimony.

Of course Noriaki Yamadan was not stupid enough to give Nakato Endo his real name. In fact, he also disguised himself when he went to meet Nakato Endo.

Just now, Noriaki Yamadan pretended to be an on-site staff member in his current attire and guided members of the Daichiyama Hokugo Kendo Club into the sports ground.

Neither Endo nor his four friends recognized Yamadan Noriaki at all.

Although some old acquaintances would guess that it was Noriaki Yamadan, no one would actually take any action based on this guess.

Yamadan Noriaki held the remote control tightly.

The next step is to choose the right time to trigger the fire alarm.

It's not really a fire alarm, but it still triggers an evacuation.

Then Endo Nakato will be given the opportunity to complete their mission.

But now, Noriaki Yamadan is not sure whether Endo Nakato still has the idea of ​​completing the mission. He is a little worried that this madman has no interest in Kiryu and Ma.

He came to the second floor of the martial arts hall and overlooked the situation inside the martial arts hall.

As soon as he stood up, Fan Ming felt that all the attention was focused on the northwest corner.

Noriaki Yamadan had done his homework before and knew that the northwest corner was the venue for the duel between the Kendo clubs of Daikiyama Hoku High School and Kaigata High School.

It seemed that the competition was quite fierce, and the spectators cheered one after another.

It looks like a tough battle is underway.

Shan Duan Fanming recalled it and found that he couldn't remember the name of the backbone of Daji Mountain North High School, but that was not important.

The backbone of Gaifang High School was obviously not weaker than his opponent from Dajishan North High School. The two fought against each other for several rounds, but neither of them made any gains.

The audience cheered several times thinking it was a win, but in the end the referee ruled it out.

Now even high school kendo players are starting to play this trick of hiding from effective striking areas. Noriaki Yamadan sighed.

Hiding in the effective attack area is a unique cheating method in competitive kendo.

In the past, when fighting with real swords, blood spurted out from everywhere.

In competitive kendo, being hit outside the armor only hurts, so there are all kinds of cunning tactics that deliberately let the opponent hit areas where there is no gain and take the opportunity to counterattack.

After several consecutive altercations, a referee finally raised the penalty flag and changed the penalty for Fang High School.

After a short period of judgment, the remaining two referees chose to support their colleagues' decision.

The students of Gaifang High School cheered.

Yamadan Noriaki couldn't help but be speechless. To be honest, he was not interested in this kind of praising youth.

After all, there was nothing worthy of praise in his youth.

He suddenly wanted to create a fire alarm at this time and interrupt the youth scroll.

At this time, the second round of the backbone battle began, and Yamadan Noriaki was too lazy to watch anymore. He turned his eyes to his goal this time.

Things seem to be going wrong at Kazuma Kiryu's high school.

The opponent in the first round felt a bit strong. Now Kitagashi High School has suffered two defeats in a row. If the deputy general loses again, Kiryu Kazuma will not even have to fight.

Yamadan Noriming was thinking that Beige's deputy general had been taken advantage of by his opponent.

Although Noriaki Yamadan was far away, his excellent naked-eye vision allowed him to still see the expression of Kitagara's lieutenant.

——This lieutenant will probably be defeated.

Yamadan Noriaki thought to himself.

Then the deputy general was captured again.

In kendo competitions, it is quite common for someone to lose two games in a row because of a mental breakdown like this.

This is the end of the team battle journey of the Kitagashi High School Kendo Club. Noriaki Yamadan was glad that he didn't bet the mission on the team battle at all, but focused on the individual side.

However, Kiryu and Ma can choose to have a glorious battle with the opponent's commander.

Noriaki Yamadan guessed that Kiryu Kazuma would definitely do this.

Sure enough, he saw Kiryu Kazuma standing up and coming to the starting line.

The opponent's general also readily accepted the challenge and stood opposite Kiryu Kazuma.

What happened next was far beyond Yamadan Noriaki's expectations.

Kiryu and Ma took two copies in a row with lightning speed, and the opponent's general did not even react.

This Kiryu Kazuma is indeed capable, and he is worthy of being someone who can defeat Tsuda-gumi alone.

At this time, Noriaki Yamadan was suddenly surprised to find that Kiryu Kazuma was leading the Kendo Club of Hokugashi High School to the venue for the duel between Daikiyama Hoku High School and Kaigata High School.

In fact, the high schools that were eliminated in the first round are all gathered there.

Noriaki Yamadan felt that his chance had come.
