"Hiko Seijuro, what are you doing?" When the atmosphere between Sanada Nobuyuki and Hiko Seijuro gradually became dangerous, a voice suddenly appeared from their heads, and a figure appeared on the eaves beside them , "Do you mean that you want to attack the Tokugawa family heavy ministers here?"

Kiyojuro Hiko put down his grip on the other party's collar, turned his head to look at the figure that appeared suddenly, and after a while he said word by word: "Hatto...Hanzo!"

"It's right here." Hattori Hanzo's forehead and gray bangs were blown up by the wind, revealing his serious face underneath.

Bigu Qingjuro suddenly felt a strange sense of disobedience from him. It is not that he has never fought against Hattori Hanzo before. During the Battle of Sekigahara, as an assault swordsman, he also almost came close several times. He rushed to Tokugawa Ieyasu in front of him.Therefore, he is no stranger to Hattori Hanzo, but now when he saw him again, he suddenly felt the words of the child he picked up.

"Is that Hattori Hanzo really just a ninja?" Gu Hexuan's voice flashed in his mind, Bigu Qingjuro quickly pushed the man in front of him away, and subconsciously shook hands in the long sword.

"Please stop, Mr. Hiko didn't want to fight with me." Nobuyuki Sanada took a step forward instead and said to Hattori Hanzo.

"Oh?" Hattori Hanzo raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.

Seijuro Hiko put down his sword-holding hand, bowed to Nobuyuki Sanada and apologized: "I was really rude just now, please forgive me for being excited for a while."

Nobuyuki Sanada didn't expect him to lower his head so readily, and looked at him curiously.

Hattori Hanzo snorted and disappeared from the treetops in an instant.

Sanada Nobuyuki asked a little curiously: "Your temper seems to have improved a lot, and you are willing to bow to me under such circumstances."

"I am no longer Toyotomi's general, but you are still Tokugawa's important minister. As a commoner, what I did just now was indeed wrong." Kiyojuro Hiko told the truth, and now he is just a commoner, even if A few years ago, he was a real general.

"It's really interesting. I didn't expect the famous Biko Kiyojuro to be such a person." Sanada Nobuyuki didn't know much about Biko Kiyojuro. After all, they only fought on the battlefield, and before the Battle of Sekigahara, the two sides He also appeared on the battlefield as an enemy.

Compared with Gu Qingjuro, he didn't feel any difference in status. He didn't care about power, but he believed in the sword in his hand more.

"In that case, I will take my leave first." Seijuro Higu has calmed down now, "I hope that when we meet tomorrow, everything will be safe."

"I accept your good words." Sanada Nobuyuki walked away without looking back.

When Gu Hexuan walked over, he saw Kiyojuro Bigu coming out of the inner courtyard with a calm expression, and the ninja was behind him, but after seeing him walking out, he disappeared.

"Is this the rhythm of what happened?" Gu Hexuan asked curiously.

"Yeah, this finally made me understand why the master said that everyone in the Sanada family has the same temperament." Hiko Kiyojuro reached out and patted his head.

"Sanada? Mr. Hiko, have you met someone from the Sanada family?" Gu Hexuan did a good job reviewing the history of the Warring States Period recently, and immediately remembered the Sanada family who joined the Tokugawa family, "Is it Nobuyuki Sanada?"

"That's him." Hiko Seijuro sighed, "The predecessor Hiko Seijuro once told me that Sanada Masayuki seemed to be a vacillating, old, treacherous guy, and he was also called by Toyotomi Hideyoshi as 'very loyal but not good for mediocrity. The person who dares to deviate from (外内话兴の人)', but in fact, he is absolutely loyal to the Sanada family in his bones, and in order to preserve the Sanada lineage, he has done many things that are difficult for others to achieve."

"It's hard to say whether his two sons inherited his loyalty to Sanada, but he has inherited his personality of never letting go once he is determined." Bigu Qingjuro sighed , "These two guys... Should I say that they really deserve to be brothers?"

"?" Gu Hexuan gave him a strange look, "That is to say, the negotiation failed?"

"Oh, more than that." Hiko Seijuro shook his head, "In my opinion, he might even want to kill his younger brother on the spot."

"It's so exaggerated? Aren't they brothers?" Gu Hexuan was a little dazed.

"Who knows." Bigu Qingjuro sighed, "Let's go back."

Back at the mansion where Hiko Seijuro lived, Hiko Seijuro was not in a very happy mood, and practiced sword almost all night.Gu Hexuan kept reciting until very late, and he didn't see the other party go to rest.

Early the next morning, the two of them dressed in formal attire and headed to the Martial Arts Arena where the imperial contest was held.

Not everyone can enter the finals of the Imperial Tournament. Those who can enter are some dignitaries, and there are very few civilians. Especially this time, even Ieyasu Tokugawa personally appeared. Everyone must wear formal clothes .

When Gu Hexuan sat down, the waiter at the side had already brought refreshments. Gu Hexuan carefully scanned the surroundings, and suddenly felt that it was great that Bigu Qingjuro who was sitting next to him didn't cut the hairstyles of those newcomers up.

"What are you looking at?" Hiko Kiyojuro asked without looking sideways.

"It's nothing, I just think those people have weird hairstyles." Gu Hexuan picked up his teacup and took a sip.

"Ah, that's the Tsukidai head. Tadakatsu Honda admires this hairstyle, because if the bun is cut off during the battle, it won't spread to the front of the forehead to block the line of sight." Kiyojuro Hiko also knew about this. Yes, after all, it is admired by Honda Tadakatsu, known as the number one warrior in Japan, and it is not surprising that it spread rapidly among the samurai class.

"Tokugawa Ieyasu is here." The topic just now is enough, Hiko Seijuro saw an old man coming in from the palace not far away, and stopped all his movements after saying a word.

After everyone stood up and saluted Tokugawa Ieyasu, and after Tokugawa Ieyasu said some nonsense opening remarks as usual, the contest began under the announcement of the referee.

Contrary to what was expected at the beginning, the eight-to-four match started at the same time with four venues, and the most dramatic thing was that Nobuyuki Sanada's opponent happened to be Yukimura Sanada.

Kiyojuro Bigu didn't want to watch the battle between the two brothers anymore, he motioned to Gu Hexuan beside him to watch the battle on the other side, "Look over there, the swordsmanship of the ghost-eyed madman."

The ghost-eyed maniac's opponent is a man named Dongxiang Zhongwei. That man is a disciple of the Zixian style who is quickly becoming popular in Edo. His swordsmanship is very fast, but it is far from the level of supernatural speed, even at high speed. No, even Gu Hexuan has full confidence in retreating from the battle with this person.Originally, Gu Hexuan couldn't figure out why he didn't allow himself to watch brothers kill each other, but to watch masters torture rookies.

But when Guiyan drew his sword madly, he knew the reason.

The god of ignorance, Fengliu Jiaolong.

Ghost-eyed Man cut countless scars on the opponent's body with only one knife, but his movements were so light, as if the wind was blowing through that person's body.

"This is Wumingshen Merry!?" It was the first time Gu Hexuan had seen such a sword technique, "What did he do just now..."

"It's hard for me to explain clearly." Bigu Qingjuro saw clearly, Guiyan Kuang slashed the man five times in an instant, but the speed of the five swords was really too fast, so fast Like a breeze.

Gu Hexuan paid more attention to another point, "That sword technique... actually cut out the effect of illusion, how did it do it?"

If only swordsmen can use spells, Gu Hexuan can also be regarded as one of them. After all, he is an onmyoji who also learned swordsmanship. If he uses onmyoji to make the opponent hallucinate in battle, there is nothing wrong with it. .

But that person's swordsmanship is obviously different, this man named Ghost Eye Maniac only used his own swordsmanship to cut the illusion.It's weird to think about.

While he was contemplating, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a group of spectators on the other side leaving the stage without a sound. He couldn't help poking the people around him, "Look over there, they're leaving."

"It seems that the main event is coming." Bigu Qingjuro glanced around, his position was among the merchants, and the few big merchants in the front row had disappeared.

On the field, a man named Honghu who also entered the finals also took out his opponent. As a man who fights with a gun, his solution was also very rough, directly piercing the opponent's heart with a single shot.

At this time, the competition no longer cares about life or death, and it is not surprising that people who come to participate in the battle die at any time.In fact, when the red tiger pierced the opponent's heart, a row of people who mainly watched the battle on his side couldn't help but cheered loudly.

However, on the other side, the battle between Sanada Nobuyuki and Sanada Yukimura has reached a very fierce situation. Although the audience around them don't know what they are talking about, they can also see the bloody situation.

"Who is that intruder?"

"Yukino seems to be very angry?"

"This chick is really exciting. If she loses here, I will go to Master Tokugawa to buy this person."

The businessmen began to whisper, the topics ranged from what happened in the martial arts arena to what Gu Hexuan should evaluate. Gu Hexuan was silent for a while, and the strange atmosphere became more and more around here.
