I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

Can any readers guess: Why there are 4 male ninjas, but only 3 people came to arrest Ogata at the end of the chapter?It might be hard to guess.

Chapter 676 Ogata and Isshiki whose traces were discovered [4500]

Breathing is suppressed.

Although not in the water, Isshika held her breath like diving.

Plop, plop, plop, plop

Hear his heart beating extremely hard.

The heart was beating so fast that Yishihua couldn't help wondering whether the three uninvited guests would hear her heartbeat.

There was a gust of warm air at the top of the head, which was Ogata's breath.

At this moment, Isshiki curled up in Ogata's arms with her back leaning against Ogata.

Although the current posture of the two is quite ambiguous, Yishihua has no thoughts related to the matter of men and women in her heart.

The sound of footsteps outside, like a heavy hammer hitting Yishihua's heart, makes Yishihua's heart unable to raise any distracting thoughts

Is it really okay to hide here?

Isshiki looked around the cramped environment she was currently in with worried eyes.

There is no furniture in this abandoned temple.

The only two things are the solid Buddhist altar with its back against the north wall, and the wooden Buddha statue placed on the altar.

Ogata and Isshiki are now hiding in the gap between the Buddha statue and the wall behind it.

The gap between the Buddha statue and the wall is extremely narrow, but fortunately Ogata is the kind of slender person, and Isshiki is very slender except for the buttocks and bear parts, which are a little more fleshy than ordinary people. So if the two squeezed hard, they could barely squeeze into the gap.

Standing on the Buddhist altar and hiding behind the Buddha statue, Yisehua, as a devout Buddhist, is quite resistant to such things.

But the situation was urgent, and she couldn't care less about hiding like that.

Although Zura was successfully hidden, Isshika did not feel at all relaxed.

After all, the place where they hide is not so hidden.

As long as you run to both sides of the Buddha statue, you can see two people squeezed behind the Buddha statue.

Footsteps, approaching.

Across the Buddha statue, Yishihua heard three footsteps coming from different directions, from the south side of the Buddhist hall, slowly leaning towards the Buddha statue on the north side of the Buddhist hall, leaning towards them.

Even without Ogata's introduction to her slowly, Isshika could guess that the three people outside who broke into this Buddhist hall involuntarily must be those who have been chasing Ogata tonight.

And they were also the ones who kidnapped her grandfather, parents.

Isshiki pressed her chest with one hand, trying to use this method to reduce her heartbeat that was constantly accelerating due to tension and resentment, while raising her head, letting her eyes follow Ogata's face.

When people feel nervous and uneasy, they often subconsciously look at people who can bring them a sense of security.

When he caught up with Ogata's face, he saw a face with half-closed eyes, with a calm expression.

His appearance seemed to say: This situation is just a small situation, nothing to be afraid of.

For some reason, seeing Ogata's calm and calm expression, Isshika was surprised, and her originally rapid heartbeat slowed down slowly.

If Isshika could hear Ogata's thoughts now, she might be even more surprised.

Because Ogata is not just as simple as looking calm.

Under his calm and calm appearance, his brain was spinning and thinking rapidly.

Ever since the three Iga Nannin broke in, Ogata had been thinking about how to kill all three of them as quickly as possible if something happened.

The person on the left has 7 steps, the person in the middle has 7 steps, the person on the right has 6 steps

With his eyes half closed, Ogata focused most of his energy and attention on his ears, listening carefully to the location of the three Iga male ninjas and their relationship with the Buddha statue, which is the current hiding place of Ogata and Isshikika. spacing.

It seems that it is probably impossible to hope that they will not come to check the back of the Buddha statue.

The person on the right is the one who walks the fastest and the first to come to the side of the Buddha statue. He should be him.

Ogata clenched the sword in his hand with the side facing his right hand.

Exactly the same as Ogata had guessed.

The person on Ogata's right is the fastest.

The other two walked in the temple with a gentle pace that even ants might not be able to step on to death, only his pace was very fast.

In just 2 breaths, the person has come to the front side of the Buddha statue.

It is less than 2 steps away from Ogata and Isshiki hidden behind the Buddha statue.

At this time, Yishihua also grasped the wakizashi that Chuguang gave her and swallowed hard, ready to stab the knife in her hand vigorously when she saw someone appearing in front of her eyes.

Both Ogata and Isshiki had clenched their knives tightly and were ready to kill at any time.

Just when the ninja who was the closest to the Buddha statue and could see Ogata and the others was about to take a step forward

"and many more."

The silence of the Buddhist hall was suddenly broken.

This is the voice of the ninja farthest from the Buddha statue.

After saying the "wait" the man went on to say:

"It's too dangerous for you to lean over like this. You have to learn how to use ninja weapons."

Just as he finished speaking, it was convenient to hear a very slight abnormal sound from the top of his head.

Looking up at the top of the head of the Buddha statue in front of him, he was covered with a noose made of hemp rope.

Ogata's pupils narrowed slightly.

He instantly realized what the ninja wanted to do.

And what happened next perfectly confirmed Ogata's conjecture

Boom!

The ninja who was farthest from the statue immediately pulled back after being put on a rope by the statue's head.

Wooden Buddha statues are not heavy at all.

Under his pull, the Buddha statue fell forward heavily as if it had fallen.

The Buddha statue collapsed, and Ogata and Isshika hidden behind the Buddha statue were naturally exposed to everyone.

The sudden change made Yishihua who had seen less storms stunned.

And while she was still stunned in place

call!

There was wind pressure on her side.

Ogata is already moving.

At the same moment when the Buddha statue was pulled down, Ogata reacted quickly and launched a counterattack.

Ogata jumped towards the ninja who was the farthest away from him and Isshiki and pulled the Buddha statue down without a run-up, and with the help of gravity, he chopped off the sword that was raised above his head.

The ninja's expression changed and he quickly pulled out the wakizasa from his waist, and hurriedly met the enemy.

And after Ogata "flyed" out, Isshika finally realized belatedly, holding the wakizashi in his hand as if awakening from a dream, and rushed towards the ninja closest to the Buddha statue.

Even a sick dragon is still a dragon.

clang!clang!clang!

Ogata swung his sword three times in a row, broke through the ninja's frontal defense, and then pierced the ninja's throat with a sword in the face.

Clap clap clap!

Hasty footsteps came from the side.

Looking sideways, another ninja was running towards the windows not far away that were kicked and smashed by them just now, planning to escape.

Ogata didn't chase after him immediately, but reached into his bosom first, took out something shiny with metallic luster, and threw it vigorously towards the back of the fleeing ninja.

The thing thrown by Ogata was his pistol Meiran.

Meiran and Kasumi are now useless due to water ingress, but their hard shells can still be used as hidden weapons for the time being.

Meiran accurately hit the running ninja's back, causing the running ninja to stop.

And Ogata also saw this opportunity, rushed forward with a stride, and slashed the back of the fleeing ninja. After he staggered forward for a few steps, he also stepped on the one who was stabbed to death by Ogata first. Following in the footsteps of the ninja, he collapsed to the ground and did not move.

Isshika's strength is not as good as Ogata's, and she is not good at using coercion, so after Ogata has dealt with the two ninjas cleanly, Isshika is still fighting with the enemy in front of her.

However, the fight between Yishihua and her enemy can be declared to be over at this point.

After seeing his two companions were killed by Ogata, the remaining ninja not only lost his morale and fighting spirit, but also had a sharp and fierce light in his eyes.

The speed of his swinging the knife increased a lot in one breath, suppressing Yishihua who was originally evenly matched in one breath.

This person was so prestige for a short while.

laugh!

The sound of the blade cutting into the flesh sounded again.

After finishing off the escaped ninja, Ogata rushed over immediately and chopped the last enemy to the ground.

"Ha ha ha ha"

Ogata leaned the knife on the ground with one hand, squatted halfway on the ground, gasped heavily, and adjusted his breathing.

His too ugly face made Isshiki, like a conditioned reflex, quickly ran to Ogata's side and squatted down.

"Master Yidao Zhai. Are you all right?"

"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired"

With such a weak body stiffened, Ogata couldn't think of any other words to describe his current physical state.

After panting for several breaths, and finally breathing more smoothly, Ogata put his hands on his thighs and stood up slowly.

"Miss Yishi, get out of here quickly."

"leave here?"

"Well. Since someone has already found this place, it means that this place is no longer safe." Ogata said softly, "It's only a matter of time before a second wave of enemies find this place."

"So you get out of here quickly, and don't stay with me anymore."

"If you stay with me again, you will be hunted down like before."

"Leave quickly. It's best to leave Osaka directly, or at least escape to the outskirts of Osaka."

"Thank you for the food and water."

"I will definitely fulfill my promise to you in the future, get all your family members back, and make those who took your family members pay the price."

After all, Ogata used a knife as a crutch, and walked slowly towards the window that was smashed by the three ninjas just now with a somewhat shaky pace.

"Master Yi Dao Zhai, where are you going?"

"As I said just now, this place is no longer safe, and I also want to find a new hiding place." He said, "Just leave in the opposite direction from me."

Hearing Ogata's words, Isshika froze in surprise at first.

Then without thinking, he rushed forward, came to Ogata's side, and supported Ogata.

"Miss Isshiki?" Ogata cast a surprised look at Isshika.

"Do you want me to be the kind of villain who doesn't care about friends who are in danger?" Isshika, who was supporting Ogata, looked straight ahead, with a firm and unquestionable tone.

"It's very dangerous to stay with me again. The next time the enemy attacks, maybe it's not just three people, but a whole army."

Isshiki ignored Ogata's words.

Without any response, she just silently continued to support Ogata and walked straight forward.

Seeing this, Ogata pursed his lips, showing a helpless expression.

Then he didn't say anything more, and let Yishihua support him.

after a while

Somewhere not a short distance away from the temple where Ogata and the others hid
