Nioh-kun who can do anything

Strictly speaking, this somewhat weird kendo duel was a draw.

Nioh caught Sanada by surprise at first, but his attack didn't actually have many scoring points.He took the initiative and suppressed Sanada, but according to the rules of modern kendo, many of his attack parts are not worth points.

And when Nioh's breathing method could not be maintained, and another rhythm was needed to adjust breathing, Sanada's pursuit of victory scored some points instead: similarly, Nioh's defense did not pay special attention to those parts that would score points in modern kendo competitions, but It is average and all-round protection, which allows Sanada to seize the opportunity to "score points".

But Sanada will not think that he won the game because of this.

He didn't even think it was a tie.

In his eyes, this is considered to be his loss.No, it's not counted, but, he lost this game.

It was because he didn't go all out at the beginning and lost to Nioh.

But if you only use "slack" to evaluate, you will neglect the sword skills mastered by Nioh.From Sanada's point of view, the sword skills practiced by Nioh are undoubtedly very exquisite, with the taste of ancient martial arts, with a unique style, obviously a genre he has never seen before.

Sanada glanced at Nioh and thought, where did Nioh learn this level of sword skills?

"Since you have already started practicing swordsmanship, practice hard." He said with a straight face, "Don't slack off!"

"...I didn't ask you to preach to me." Niwang took off his protective gear, put down his wooden knife, and arched his back habitually.

Sanada looked at it and wanted to go over and pat him on the back hard.

Nioh, this guy is always like this!Even though he has practiced a lot and practiced hard, he always puts on a carefree attitude!Sanada can neither comment on Nioh's training attitude as "not serious", but also always feels that Nioh is too "lazy" and contradictory, so every time he sees Nioh, he wants to preach.

The basic skills and vision developed by practicing kendo for ten years made Sanada understand the subtlety of Nioh's sword skills.

He calmed himself down in his heart, and said to Nioh seriously: "You have a complete set of sword skills, right? If you can practice well, you will become a very strong swordsman. Of course, if you want to participate in kendo performances In competitions or actual combat competitions, you still need to cater to the rules. Many of the parts you attacked just now are not scoring points in kendo competitions."

In fact, the kendo that Sanada himself learned is not the same as the standard kendo required for kendo competitions.His grandfather was a kendo teacher in the Metropolitan Police Department. Since he was a child, the kendo he practiced was more about actual combat than competition, and he himself liked tennis more, so he simply stopped participating in kendo competitions after he was in middle school.

The sword skills displayed by Nioh are even older.Sanada could tell that Nioh's sword skills were mainly slashing, which was a very lethal sword skill.

But since King Ni came to him to "ask for advice", Sanada believed that he had the responsibility to put forward his own opinions and suggestions.

"Of course, if you just want a simple exam, then your current skills are enough." Sanada said, "It's not difficult to enter the exam."

Nioh originally thought that Sanada would be angry, but he was a little surprised when he saw that Sanada was calm.

He hadn't thought about joining the band. After all, he came to Sanada today because he really wanted to "show off" because of a conditioned reflex, which can be regarded as a demonstration of his achievements.

"Entrance exam...can I do this?" he asked.

Sanada, who had already passed the entrance examination, nodded upon hearing this.He explained the requirements for the kendo exam to King Ren in great detail, and told King Ren that at his current age, he can only pass the exam first, and then he can continue to take the exam after a certain number of years. At the same time, there are age requirements, etc. .

Rank does not represent complete kendo strength.

After talking about the examination section, Sanada also gave another suggestion from the perspective of the deputy head of the tennis department: "Although I don't know what you plan to do, I don't suggest that you spend time practicing kendo competitions. Knowledge, that is very different from the sword skills you are practicing now. I can see that you have not practiced kendo for a long time. Although your sword skills are exquisite, your basic skills are not particularly solid. If you study kendo competitions again It will be distracting and slow down your sword skills practice. The teacher who teaches you sword skills will not be happy."

There are quite a few kendo masters who still maintain the "old style" in China. Sanada also visited a few with his grandfather, and of course he knows the style of those people who lead apprentices: "Besides, the tennis club is going to have a national competition this year. You'd better Don't spend too much time on kendo. On the contrary, the sword skills you practice now, find a way to integrate into your tennis."

Sanada frowned while talking: "There is nothing wrong with your tennis ball?"

Nioh: "... that's enough, that's enough. If you think the game is not enough, let's go to the tennis court and have another round."

Sanada snorted softly: "It's good that there is no problem. Don't forget, you are now the main candidate for the tennis club."

King Ni was speechless: "It was you who first suggested me to learn kendo."

"But what you are learning now is very different from the kendo style I practice." Sanada said, "Since this is the case, then you need to make corresponding changes to the 'aggression like fire' you use. If you want to use ' The other moves in "Fenglin Huoshan" should also be the same."

Obviously I won this duel, right?Why am I standing here listening to Sanada preaching?Niwang slandered, while listening to Sanada's words, he did not interrupt Sanada's narration, but listened to what Sanada said.

He told Sanada about his current situation: the sword skills he learned from a teacher who lived in the mountains before, he went to the mountains to learn in his spare time, and he used the knife provided by the old man on the mountain.Now after the old man handed over all the sword skills to him, let him come back to practice by himself, and the old man went to travel by himself.Nioh didn't bring the knife back, and he didn't have any utensils at home, so he planned to ask Sanada where to buy them.He had never seen a wooden knife in an ordinary sporting goods store.

This is, of course, a story made up by Nioh.

He appropriately beautified his learning process in Sawu Mountain and combined it with his real world situation.

Sanada didn't think it was wrong: he had seen some old men lead apprentices like this.

But he frowned when he heard this, thinking that Nioh's attitude was not serious: "You came back like this? Didn't you bring back the utensils? Didn't you practice sword skills at home before?"

Nioh blinked: "Sanada, I practice with my teacher, and I use a real sword."

Sanada: "!"

Niwang spread his hands: "I tried a wooden knife for the first time today, and I'm not used to it."

Obviously, it is impossible for Nioh to have a license to carry a knife.The real knives used in kendo are not the same as ordinary fruit knives.According to Nioh, if you have been using real knives, there is a high probability that they have been sharpened, unlike some knife collectors who collect ancient swords or unsharpened knives.

Sanada self-servingly completed the reason why Nio "had no tools", and thought it was justifiable.

Although he was a little confused, how could a restless guy like Niwang dare not bring a real sword?

But following the rules is of course a good thing.If a restless guy like Niwang brought a real sword, it would be bad if something happened to him one day.

Sanada went to the nearby warehouse to rummage, found a whole new set of equipment, packed it up and gave it to King Ni: "Give it to you."

King Ni: "...No, I'd better buy it with money. I don't get rewarded for nothing. It makes me feel weird to accept your gift, and it's not my birthday."

Sanada thought for a while: "Wait, I don't seem to have given you a birthday present this year."

He didn't mean to remind Sanada to give him a birthday present, really.

When Nioh saw that Sanada really wanted to give him a birthday present, he rarely became serious, and said to Sanada seriously: "I really don't need it. Can you understand? If I suddenly give you a present..."

Sanada said frankly, "I don't mind if you give me a birthday present."

Nioh: "..."

Nioh: "Forget it, Puri."

He decided to give Sanada a set of test papers on his birthday!The real mock volume, the best-selling one in the bookstore, or the one for the exclusive competition!

Nioh and Sanada made an appointment to come to borrow the dojo once a week, and walked out of the Sanada residence holding the utensils "sent" by Sanada.

According to Sanada, if Nio didn't practice such exquisite sword skills, it would be a waste of money.Since Nioh's teacher went to travel and did not supervise Nioh's practice progress, then as Nioh's deputy head of the club, he has the responsibility to supervise Nioh's practice.

Nioh is really puzzled: You are the vice-minister of the tennis department and not the vice-minister of the kendo department.

But thinking that if he is proficient in sword skills, there is a possibility of defeating Sanada in kendo, he also readily accepted Sanada's request to "come to the dojo every weekend to check the progress".

only……

"Is it true that I don't have to pay tuition fees?" King Ni asked again, "Isn't this considered a public device for private use?"

"This is my personal dojo." Sanada said with a straight face, "I will not only check your kendo practice, but also check your integration of kendo into tennis."

King Ni clicked his tongue and said with a smirk: "Puri, you are really responsible. In case one day I beat you with swordsmanship—"

Sanada scowled.

But he glanced at King Ni, and said calmly: "Today's duel is your victory."

Nioh: "...No, you won today."

From Nio's point of view, he didn't suppress Sanada in one breath, but let Sanada delay the breathing time, and counterattacked after the stalemate, then it was his own failure.

Sanada frowned: "You won!"

Nioh took a deep breath: It's too naive, are he and Sanada going to quarrel over who wins?

And something always feels wrong.Sanada obviously practiced kendo since childhood, didn't he?Why can you still be so calm?Obviously, the smell of gunpowder was very heavy when they confronted each other on the tennis court.

Although he thought that he lost the game, Sanada suggested that Nioh practice kendo at first, and once actually taught Nioh the most basic kendo skills. On the contrary, Sanada has a sense of responsibility towards Nioh that is difficult to describe clearly.He said to Nioh: "In short, whether it is tennis or kendo, don't relax!"

Nioh: "...piyo~"
