I am practicing in Tokyo

Chapter 168 Katori Shinto Style

The third day of the national competition, the third round, against Katori Shinto.

The pioneer of Katori Shinto style Aso Hui, the middle army Agano, the general Maeda Shibukawa, all eighth-dan swordsmen.

"Today, due to the confrontation between Katori Shinto-ryu and Waseda, our teacher Toshinori Ohtake is temporarily saying goodbye to the first episode. The male guest is the famous actor Mr. Sakai Masato, and the female guest is still our lovely Ms. Maeda Junko. Welcome both of you."

In the Fuji TV studio, Nobuo Yasuda introduced a man and a woman across the table after opening the mirror. Atsuko Maeda changed her look, dyed her long hair with slightly curly bright yellow, and wore a seasonal long-sleeved trench coat in late November , looks fashionable and atmospheric.

Sakai Masato, who once had a relationship with Fujii on the train, is the leading actor of "Naoki Hansawa" and "The Winner Is Justice". It is relatively low-key and calm, at least that is the impression given to the public.

"Hansawa Naoki, Masato-san is a good swordsman, are you interested in swordsmanship in real life?"

Nobuo Yasuda found a topic and asked Masato Sakai who was still buried in the script.

"Me? In [-], I played the role of Souji Okita, a member of the Shinsengumi in "The Legend of the Righteous Man". Since then, I have received some kendo training for filming. It's just a four-stage swordsman."

Masato Sakai read the questions on the script in advance, and answered preparedly.

"Where's Miss Dunzi? As a girl, you don't like to fight, do you?"

Nobuo Yasuda turned to Atsuko Maeda, who sat on the sidelines. Whether in the closed island society or the open Hollywood of the United States, the status of an actress or entertainer is always half a level lower. Besides, Masato Sakai’s reputation and debut time are different. Advantage.

"I've been studying recently, but fortunately, the boy's strength is too great."

Maeda Junko, who has been an idol for several years, knew that everyone wanted to hear what she said, so she said it with a bitter face, but she was not lying, she did take a few kendo classes recently, and wanted to know more about someone's movements Meaning, not just a vase.

"It seems that Masato-san is also from Waseda. This time I am more inclined to support my alma mater, right? I will support Mr. Otake Toshinori. From now on, we are rivals."

Nobuo Yasuda provoked Junko Maeda again, "The general of the Katori Shinto school is also named Maeda, Miss Dunko, don't you support it? Maybe it's a distant relative."

"Sorry, I think Fujii-kun can win, sorry."

Maeda Dunko covered her mouth with a smirk and said that there are so many people with the surname Maeda, and they are not necessarily her relatives. Even if there is a weak blood relationship, it will not affect her support and preference for Fujii.

"The game is about to start. A three-on-three melee is not a common format."

Masato Sakai reminded that on the rebroadcast screen in the studio, the contestants appeared one by one, saluted each other, and distanced themselves.

"Just don't get hurt, if you can't hold on, just admit defeat."

Fujii once again reminded the two teammates that the Waseda Kendo Club has no talent reserves. It would be a big trouble for either Ichikawa Rikichi or Sayamamae to be injured and unable to compete. Rather than avoiding the risk of injury.

Defeat him, and you will be able to obtain the position of streamer!
The three Katori Shinto-style players formed a semi-circular formation, stepped forward unhurriedly, and kept pace amazingly.

Fujii tree took the lead to meet the enemy, and slashed horizontally with his sword, but was blocked by three swords at the same time. The three cooperated closely and launched a killing formation. , the pioneer Ma Shenghui slashed Maoran's calf in front of Sashan with a sword, knocking him down directly.

Sliding steps to avoid Agano's stabbing attack, Fujii withdrew his sword and moved back, Ichikawa Rikichi was entangled by Aso Teru, and was attacked by Maeda Shibukawa in the middle of the back when he was parrying. Taking advantage of the opening, he slashed head-on, aiming at Ichikawa Rikichi's head visor.

"Snapped!"

A gray shadow overwhelmed Agano's slashed sword blade, and the flying Fujii tree knocked him away, raised his sword and slashed obliquely, and made a reverse one word cut, knocking Agano to the ground on the spot.

And behind him, Ichikawa Rekichi held the sword to block Maeda Shibukawa's slash for Fujii, but unexpectedly, Asoki's sudden thrust from the side of the shoulder directly stabbed Ichikawa Rekichi over.

Why? !I still can't hold on for a while.

The fallen Ichikawa Rikichi gasped heavily, seeing Sayamamae who was also lying on the ground clutching his feet with a painful expression, the referee on the sidelines did not notice that he was injured, and his attention was focused on the fierce battle.

Facing two opponents at the same time, Fujii didn't seem flustered. With experience in simulated battles, he knew that he had to pay a price first, and he had a better chance of winning by solving one of them first.

There is a 5-minute cooldown for Niichi Monograph Slash. Fujii lowered his posture and stretched out his hand. The Flying Sword Style, which is good at fighting with one enemy, is suitable for the moment.

"It's appeared, the classic moves of Feitian Yujianliu, contestant Fujii is going to start serious."

Yasuda Nobuo also explained all the way from the local competition, and he is very familiar with Fujii's posture, and he also explained with the same seriousness.

"Fei Tian Miu Kenshin is the genre of Kenshin Himura, the hero of Rurouni Kenshin, right? It's an exaggeration. In this level of competition, you can see the legendary moves in the comics."

Masato Sakai really couldn't see that Fujii Ki, whom he met on the train, had such exaggerated skills. At that time, he thought Fujii Ki was just a beautiful boy with better physical fitness.

Dragon mallet flash!
Bending his knees and leaping three meters high, Fujii tried his best to suppress the height, holding the sword in both hands to accumulate strength in mid-air, and with a powerful blow, it collided with the two swords of Shibukawa Maeda and Teru Aso.

Is this the power that humans can have!

Maeda Shibukawa took a few steps back to dissipate the force transmitted into his body, but Ma Shenghui was not so lucky. He was hit by Fujii like a cannonball, flew upside down by nearly ten meters, rolled out of the competition area, and was disqualified.

Tornado Flash!
Fujii tree stepped forward without panting, staggered Maeda Shibukawa's counterattack and slashed, and the moment he twisted his figure, he slashed away with his sword. , move back two or three feet and stop steadily.

"Your strength is really terrifying."

Maeda Shibukawa took a few steps back, lifted his visor, and wiped away the blood froth around his mouth. There were bursts of pain from the bite on the corner of his lips, but the shock in his heart moved him even more.

"The next thing is the highlight, I hope you don't get hurt."

When Fujii's words fell to the ground, his whole body exploded with terrifying speed. Just as Maeda Shibukawa put on his mask again, he saw sword shadows all over the sky rushing toward his face.

Nine-headed dragon flash!

Feitian Yujianliu's big move is like a strong wind blowing the ground, Maeda Shibukawa has no way to dodge it, he can only take it hard.

After struggling to block the first eight slashes, Maeda Shibukawa thought he had completely resisted Fujii's attack, a cold light flickered, the tip of the sword penetrated into the steel wire frame of the visor, cut it from the side of the cheek, and peeled off the nylon shell The alloy sword core pierced the visor and helmet, but fortunately there was not much blood on the sword.

"I lost."

Maeda Shibukawa slowly pulled back, pulled the visor helmet from the sword core in Fujii's hand, raised his hand, and opened his mouth despite his unwillingness.

He knew that the opponent was deliberately avoiding his vital points, and if it was a life-and-death struggle, he would have died long ago.

I practiced swordsmanship hard for half my life, but in the end, I couldn't even defeat a young man who had only practiced for a year or two. Am I too weak, or is he too strong?
"It's amazing! Even if it's a sword used in competitions, it's still deadly in Fujii-kun's hands, but it's still very dangerous."

When the game was won or lost, Nobuo Yasuda changed his position flexibly, favoring the winner.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Someone can do this. It's Fujii-kun."

Sakai Masato also said a few words of praise, after all, I have met him before, and he was a student of the same major who dropped out of his alma mater, so it's okay to say a few nice words.

"Doctor, my foot is hurt."

Sayama, who was lying on the ground, raised his hand and said when the sports doctor came up to check the physical condition of the contestants.

"Where? Let me see."

The sports doctor has long been familiar with it. This national competition has increased the income of the hospitals around Tokyo. After a simple inspection, he calmly stated the result.

"It's probably fractured. Take it away and send it to the imaging department of the hospital for a CT first. Don't even think about getting out of bed for at least three months."

"Ah?! It's not that serious, is it?"

Sayamamae still wanted to win and share the 2000 million yen bonus. Even if he was useless, he could get [-] million yen just by being beaten. This is a no-go.
