I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

But Ogata raised his hand one step ahead of time, and pinched the cheeks on both sides of his cheeks, making Kondo unable to speak.

While preventing Kondo from speaking, he signaled Kondo with his eyes: Don't ask too much.

Although Kondo has a simple and honest personality, he is not a stupid person.

Kondo, who instantly understood the meaning of Ogata's eyes, obediently swallowed the words that came to his mouth, temporarily suppressing all kinds of questions in his heart.

"Mashima-sama, I have admired you for a long time."

"Diner 2" slowly put down the wooden knife in his hand, changed into a much more relaxed tone, and used honorific words.

"Your trial match today is an eye-opener for Mr. Yongye and us."

"Oh?" Ogata raised his eyebrows, "Did you pay attention to my trial match today?"

"Of course." The tone of "Pastor 2" became a little excited, "I wonder if you have forgotten that Master Yongye once invited you to be a patron of the dojo."

Ogata nodded: "I haven't forgotten."

On the first day Ogata came to work in Yoshiwara, he ran into a troublesome heir to Hozoin's spear technique.

When Ogata defeated the troublemaker beautifully, Nagano was leading his six diners to watch the battle on the second floor of a tea house not far away.

Nagano, who was fascinated by Ogata's swordsmanship, sent an invitation to Ogata to be a guest at his dojo, but Ogata refused of course.

It was also at that time that Ogata met someone like Nagano.

"Master Nagano has always expressed deep regret for not being able to invite you as a diner."

"Afterwards, I have been quietly following your news."

"After learning that you won the first place in the literary examination, and that you had repelled 25 officials from Huofu Bandit Kai by yourself, Master Yongye admired you even more."

"After hearing your name from Field B this morning, Master Nagano couldn't wait to take me to watch the battle."

"Whether it's Mr. Yongye, or we all admire the horizontal slash you made today."

"I'm overwhelmed." Ogata smiled modestly, "Speaking of which, I still don't know what kind of relationship you guys have with Nagano? Are you masters and apprentices?"

"No." This time, "Diner 4" answered, "We are Mr. Yongye's eaters. But we can also be regarded as half of Mr. Yongno's apprentices."

"Master Mashima. Although we admire you very much, there is a question that we still have to ask." Although the tone of "Diner 2" is still respectful, there is also a lot of seriousness in addition to respect, "Dare to ask you What's the deal with this guy?"

The "Diner 2" in his mouth naturally refers to Kondo.

"It's a friend." Ogata sighed softly.

"Master Mashima." "Diner 2" frowned slightly, "We have no grievances with you, and you are admired by Master Yongye, and we also admire your swordsmanship, so we don't want to argue with you. enemy."

"We can also understand your desire to protect your friends."

"But you probably don't know what your friends did today"

"I know." Ogata sighed again, interrupting "Diner 2", "I also understand how you want to teach this guy a lesson."

"Then can you please back away for a while?" "Diner 2" said in a deep voice, "We assure you that we will only let this guy suffer, and will not do anything to him."

Ogata glanced at the six diners in front of him with complicated eyes.

Then slowly put down the hands that had been pinching Kondo's cheeks just now.

"How about this." Ogata said seriously, "I will be your opponent."

"If you can defeat me, I won't bother you and this guy anymore."

"But if I can defeat you, you can ignore that nothing happened today."

"how?"

Ogata's words made Kondo and the six diners all look astonished.

"Master Mashima." "Diner 2" opened his eyes wide, "You mean you want to deal with six of us at the same time?"

"I have quite a bit of experience with one enemy against many." Ogata paused when he said this.

Then he changed into a tone with a smile on his face:

"There are not many opportunities to compete with me."

Ogata's words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Originally, when Ogata said that he would fight them for Kondo, they showed anticipation and excitement.

And after hearing what Ogata said just now, the anticipation and excitement on their faces intensified at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Ogata has been paying attention to the faces of these six people.

Seeing their very obvious expression changes, a smile mixed with helplessness appeared on Ogata's face.

They really are all "fighters".

Ogata is not good at fighting with words.

In order to avoid this weakness of his own, Ogata temporarily came up with the trick of "fighting them for Kondo".

Ogata noticed just now: when the six people noticed that it was him "Mashima Goro" who had appeared, respect and excitement flashed in their eyes.

So Xu conveniently guessed: they might be the kind of "fighting faction" who are keen to compete with masters.

So Ogata took a gamble with the mentality of giving it a try.

It now appears that Ogata made the right bet.

"Diner 2" who only had the excitement of "being able to compete with a master" remained in his mind, and without much hesitation, he shouted for the others:

"Okay! Then Mashima-sama please give me your advice!"

After the words fell, the six people all raised the knives in their hands.

Ogata took out his cuffs, and it took only a few seconds to fasten the sleeves on both sides of his clothes.

While slowly pulling out Da Shitian from his waist, Ogata whispered in a volume that only he and Kondo could hear clearly:

"look carefully."

This is a very short sentence.

After hearing Ogata's words, Kondo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded vigorously.

Ogata clenched Dashiten, who was facing the enemy with the back of his sword, with both hands.

"Gumu Yidaoyu, Mashima Goro, join me."

The complex emotions of the six diners, which were mixed with excitement, anticipation, and tension, reached their peak at this time.

They don't want to miss this rare opportunity to compete with the masters.

As Ogata's voice fell, the six people shouted at the same time in a very tacit understanding, and rushed towards Ogata with their swords raised high.

Facing the six people coming from six directions, Ogata didn't panic or panic.

After glancing at the positions of the six people, Xu conveniently swung his feet and rushed towards "Pastor 6" who was the farthest away from the others.

Ogata's speed was so fast that he seemed to be flying close to the ground.

The agility value of 12 points is fully displayed at this time.

"Flying" to the front and back of "Pastor 3", Ogata directly slashed at the shoulder of "Pastor 3".

The speed of the sword is as fast as Ogata's movement speed, which makes people dumbfounded.

Ding!Defeat the enemy with Sakakibara's single blow

Gain 80 personal experience points and 70 experience points for swordsmanship "Sakakibara Ichidou"

Current personal level: 10

The system sound sounded, announcing the defeat of "Diner 3".

If it weren't for the back of the knife, at least half of the shoulder of "Diner 3" would have fallen off.

Despite the regret and unwillingness on his face, the defeated "Diner 3" still held his knife obediently and withdrew from the "battlefield".

Since rushing into the enemy line, Ogata's feet have not stopped.

Swinging a sword and knocking down an enemy is only a matter of an instant.

After this moment passes, Xufang will quickly escape from the spot, rush to a safe place, or run directly to the next enemy.

Kondo obediently followed Ogata's instruction just now, staring carefully with round eyes.

The more you look at it, the more frightened you become.

This is actually the first time that Kondo has witnessed Ogata's heroic posture with one enemy.

If Kondo was asked to use one word to describe Ogata's battle with these six diners at this time, then Kondo could only think of one word: pleasing to the eye.

Ogata's movements are smooth and flowing, moving around among the six people.

He can always intersperse into the optimal position in time, and can always hit the enemy with the most concise movements.

The light of the knife that Ogata swung swept towards the six people one after another.

Ding!Defeat the enemy with Sakakibara's single blow

Ding!Use Sakakibara Ichidou Ryuo to defeat the enemy

Ding!Use Sakakibara Ichidou to climb the stairs and defeat the enemy

Although these six people have tried their best, they can't even touch a corner of Ogata.

In a blink of an eye, only "Diner 2" was left that hadn't been hit by Ogata.

Although he was the only one left who hadn't lost yet, there was no trace of frustration in the eyes of "Diner 2".

It would be better to say that the excitement in the pupils is more intense, and the emotions are more elevated.

It has become a one-on-one duel, and Ogata no longer needs to switch his position frequently, turning one-on-many into multi-game one-on-one.

"Drink ah ah ah!"

"Diner 2" swung a knife and slashed at Ogata.

Standing next to Xu, he dodged the attack, and then used Shuiluo to strike at his shoulder.

However, Ogata's attack failed to hit "Diner 2".

His downfall was blocked by "Diner 2".

After the first blow was missed, Ogata did not hesitate at all, and then swung his sword twice.

But these 2 knives were all blocked.

After seeing his slashes being received one after another, a faint look of surprise appeared on Ogata's face.

After jumping 2 steps back and opening the gap, Ogata asked:

"What school of swordsmanship do you use?"

"The swordsmanship I'm practicing is Honma-style!" "Diner 2" echoed loudly.

"Honma flow, no wonder."

Ogata has heard a little about this genre.

The characteristic of this genre is "focus on defense".

Be invincible first, and wait for the enemy to be victorious. This is the philosophy followed by this genre.

Therefore, the common style of play for the heirs of this genre is: first keep defending, dragging until the opponent's physical strength is exhausted, or after a flaw is exposed, and then kill the opponent with one blow.

"Since you are using Honma-ryu words"

Ogata slowly raised the knife in his hand and put it in the upper stance.

Give that a try.

Looking at Ogata who was posing in the above posture, "Diner 2" stared.

He had already experienced Ogata's powerful downward chop just now.

He subconsciously thought that Ogata was going to break through his defense with a powerful slash.

After knowing Ogata's intentions, "Diner 2" not only did not flinch, but became even more excited.

After clenching the knife in his hand, he took the initiative to slowly walk towards Ogata.

Ogata also maintained the posture of the previous stage, and slowly greeted "Diner 2"
