Chapter 681 Cat and Mouse Game
At this moment, everyone saw what Kyosuke Hojo meant. He was playing tricks on Ryo Iguchi.
As long as he never calls out the correct hitting position, Iguchi Ryo will never lose and can keep beating the opponent.
"How many moves have you used already?"
Jiu Neng Tianyin, who had a broken rib, still did not go to heal his injury, but concentrated on watching the two people on the field.
"It's twelve moves. I've used up all the lower-hand moves. Now I'm using the middle-hand moves."
The disciple next to him replied, his eyes not leaving Hojo Kyousuke's body at all when he spoke.
"So strong. Does Hojo-kun really plan to use Iguchi Ryo to demonstrate all the moves of Oyotachi?"
"It's a bit exaggerated to be strong. If I hadn't known that this was a test match between him and me, I would have thought it was a martial arts practice on a visiting day. Iguchi Ryo was forced to cooperate and demonstrate every swordsmanship move."
"You should let those juniors who are just getting started take a look. It will save them from thinking that the practice group Tai Sword is useless."
"Don't worry, someone is recording it over there."
"I think if someone who doesn't know what's going on sees the video, they will just think it's a martial arts show because it's so unreal."
"Yes, even if I have been practicing for three years, I still can't use the sword moves smoothly in a formal competition like Hojo-kun."
Disciples of Beichen's Yidao style are talking a lot about whether the set of swords, that is, the routines are useful. This is a question faced by all martial arts in the world.
“It looks nice, but it’s just a showpiece and is of no use at all.”
Even those who have practiced for many years cannot avoid such thoughts, but since it is called a routine, it means it is universal and fixed.
If an ordinary person has a conflict with someone else, even if he grabs the other person's collar, he will only tear them randomly and cannot launch an effective attack. And if a person has practiced boxing a little, the moment he grabs the opponent's collar with his left hand, his right hand will automatically wave and launch a right hook attack.
There was no need to think at that moment, because the angle between the opponent's chin and my own was so suitable, and the body spontaneously wanted to attack, which was extremely smooth.
Or like kicking and blocking after tripping, the routine is integrated into the body's memory. As long as the opportunity arises, the body will teach you how to do it.
Just like Hojo Kyosuke at this moment, even without the help of scanning eyes and super brains, the moment the opponent rushes over and the two bamboo swords hit each other, the feeling from the bamboo swords will tell his body how to deal with it, and the subsequent moves will follow the trend. Used it. Even when the opponent rushes over, the memory from the practice will come to mind.
Regarding this point, Ryo Iguchi feels deeply.
It felt like I was stuck in a quagmire. No matter whether I was moving forward or backward, whether I was stationary or attacking, I felt like I had fallen into the opponent's trap. I could only passively send the center line of my body out.
I tried my best to make the opponent's attack less monotonous.
Ryo Iguchi stepped forward again and swung his knife!
He was easily blocked and suppressed by the demon on the opposite side.
He gritted his teeth and veins popped out in the hand holding the knife. He struggled to straighten the knife and swung it again.
He was suppressed again, and his body was pushed back uncontrollably.
The center line is lost and the arm is exposed.
Did he fail again? Does this guy really have no flaws?
Ryo Iguchi was almost desperate. He gritted his teeth, knowing that the other party would continue to chop off his head.
"Bang--!"
"The twenty-second move! "Reverse brush"! "
The disciples of Beichen Yidao Style shouted in unison, like a group of excited counters.
Jingguchi Liang's face was red, feeling both pain and shame, and the cheers pierced his heart like a sharp sword.
Stand back and raise the bamboo knife.
He looked at the motionless Hojo Kyousuke opposite, his mind was in chaos, and he had no energy left to think about how to fight back.
Although the Shoji of Daidaiji Temple is called the Immovable King Kong, King Kong also has angry eyes. As long as he reacts, he will reveal his flaws, and he can be defeated as long as he has any flaws.
But Hojo Kyosuke is different, this guy...
Like the sun in the sky, not to mention a flaw, just looking directly at him is already a pain.
He clenched the bamboo knife and moved forward again, swinging the knife numbly.
"Crack-!"
The bamboo sword was directly moved to the right by Hojo Kyosuke on the opposite side. The tip of the sword hit the ground, and the middle door opened.
"Pah! Pah!"
Two consecutive shots, Ryo Iguchi's "little hand" and "crown (dong)" were hit almost at the same time.
Cut off!
Cut off your hand!
Cut off the body!
"Pose 30! "Dial"! "
The disciples of Beichen Yidao style cheered together.
Hojo Kyosuke still didn't win, because this time he shouted for his face and chopped off his hand.
Ryo Iguchi attacked again, and Hojo Kyosuke's bamboo sword made an arc.
"Crack!"
Cut off!
When the bamboo swords were exchanged, Hojo Kyosuke stepped forward and suppressed Iguchi Ryo with his body. The opponent could only retreat and use all his strength to resist.
Retreating, Hojo Kyosuke raised his sword.
Cut off your hand!
"Move 33! "Return early"! "
In another round, Ryo Iguchi attacked, and Hojo Kyosuke waved the bamboo sword in his hand like a crescent moon.
Cut off!
Taking the opportunity, he thrust his sword forward, aiming directly at Ryo Iguchi's throat, and the latter was forced to raise his bamboo sword in defense.
"Crack-!"
Hand chopping success!
Cut off, pretending to stab the throat, but actually chop off the hand!
"Position 12! "Star Eye"! "
Beichen counters cheered together.
Ryo Iguchi attacks, and Kyosuke Hojo wields his sword.
Cut off, stab the abdomen, chop off the hands!
"Style 35! "Fly forward"! "
Cut off, curl the sword, stab the throat to force him to move, chop off the hand!
"Position 37! "Lead in"! "
Cut off...
"No...."
As Hojo Kyosuke used the sword moves of the Hokatsu Itto style, the cheers of the disciples in the dojo became louder and more exciting.
Jiuneng Tianyin had forgotten the pain in his body and cheered loudly with his junior brothers.
Update on the journey: "The new emperor of Beichen Yidao Ryu seems to be doing a pretty good job. At least he respects everyone. You might consider treating him better."
Daidaiji Shoji looked at the reactions of the junior disciples around him and knew that they had accepted Hojo Kyosuke and were conquered by his strength.
Well...that's good, that's good...
He was a little relieved and a little disappointed.
If the disciples of Beichen Itto-ryu are cheering for the strength of Hojo Kyousuke, then the swordsmen of other schools and companies in the dojo are afraid.
Now Ryo Iguchi on the stage no longer screamed, but they knew what kind of torture the other party was suffering.
It was all a joke, a battle that could easily be solved, but that Hojo-kun chose to play with his opponent. If you shout for noodles, you will cut off your hands, if you shout for hands, you will slap noodles... The main thing is to point east and hit west.
Ryo Iguchi was so arrogant when he came on stage, so as long as he still had some guts, he couldn't admit defeat, otherwise he would be completely embarrassed. Now he is completely desperate for life but not death.
Looking at Hojo Kyosuke, who easily and comfortably slashed Iguchi Ryo's bamboo sword off target, everyone had one thought in their mind:
You must not offend this petty man.
They finally understood why Hojo Kyousuke was called the "handless devil". He was indeed as terrifying as a devil.
"What a picturesque chopping hand."
Nagase Ichiro sighed softly.
"Yes, every move goes directly to the hand, as if the hand is the opponent's body." Miyazaki said in a complicated tone.
In the neon school, Beichen Itto-ryu is not the only one who is called the "Hand-Chopping Maniac". Many schools like this move, but it is not as exaggerated as Beichen Itto-ryu. Almost all of the forty-three styles are hand-cutting moves. Anyone who has watched them perform martial arts will be confused in their hearts:
"Is kendo just for chopping off hands?"
As an Osaka Prefectural police officer, Miyazaki is practicing the swordsmanship of the Metropolitan Police Department. Although there are many moves of Beichen's Ittou style, he is learning more of the Show style, so it is not so friendly to slashing hands.
My hands were chopped off, my hands were chopped off, and I was judged as a loser without even seeing it. I was as annoyed as a fly.
No matter what move you want to use, you must use most of your energy to defend the opponent's head. You can't do anything by shrinking your hands and feet.
That's frustrating.
"Hahaha, this is because Hojo-kun is too strong. He predicts every move of Iguchi-san, so he always falls into his routine and has to perform with him like a puppet. "
Nagase Ichiro smiled, of course his favorite thing was cut off, cut off the hand! I am so excited to see such outstanding juniors.
"Magic Eye..."
Miyazaki muttered something with a deep look in his eyes. Standing in God's Vision, with their strength, they can naturally see that Hojo Kyousuke did not lie. Under his eyes, everything about Ryo Iguchi was invisible.
"I don't care whether he has a magic eye or not. I will get close to him later and compete with him in judo." He gritted his teeth. This can be said to be an invincible tactic. No matter how powerful the opponent's swordsmanship is, as long as you fight hand-to-hand, you don't even know what you are going to do next. What can the opponent do?
Nagase Ichiro said nothing after hearing this, because the fact that Miyazaki could say this proved that this guy had admitted that Hojo Kyosuke's kendo strength was superior to his.
At this time, new changes also occurred on the field.
"Pah——"
Ryo Iguchi's bamboo knife fell to the ground for the sixth time, but this time he didn't pick it up again.
This extremely smart man was kneeling on the ground with his hands on his hands, and big beads of sweat kept dripping from his face to the gold of his visor, and then to the ground.
It won't work, it won't work, I will die if I continue like this, I will be toyed with to death.
He felt like a mouse, trapped in a radius, and no matter which way he ran, he would be slapped back by the scary cat.
The reason why it hasn't been bitten to death is just because the cat wanted to play for a while longer.
"Admit defeat! I give up!"
Shouting, he wanted to raise his hands, but as soon as he moved his hands, his arms softened, and his whole body collapsed instantly.
"Boom!"
The visored head hit the wooden floor hard.
"Arnold... that Iguchi-san, you don't need to kowtow if you just admit defeat."
Onizuka Eikichi's teasing voice came.
"What do you know? Iguchi-san is impressed by the strength of the president, so he wants to kowtow to show respect!"
Danma Ryuji immediately agreed.
"I see, Iguchi-kun was so proud at first, but now he realizes how high Mount Tai is and so he wakes up."
The prostrate Ryo Iguchi was so angry at the two singing and singing that his face instantly turned from red to white, bastard, this kowtow completely threw all his previous efforts into the water. If he had known this, why would he get so many beatings in vain?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and finally he rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Report, Iguchi-san fainted."
The disciple of Beichen Yidao style lowered his head and looked down.
"Maybe you're feeling too embarrassed, so you're pretending to be faint?"
Someone whispered, but Jingguchi Liang gritted his teeth and remained silent.
"Carry it away, carry it away, next one, don't delay our chief to kill him."
Onizuka cheered, and the Beichen Itto-ryu disciples who had become one with him immediately carried Iguchi Ryo away.
The fifth generation referee declared Hojo Kyosuke the winner, and the old man was so happy that his mouth was twisted.
It’s so spicy! It is simply the reincarnation of the ancestor!
God bless me, Beichen Yidao Style, for sending me such a genius just when Huang Mao was about to take over.
The old man glanced at the Sixth Generation, and as expected he saw a dark face.
He stepped forward, personally helped Hojo Kyosuke take off his mask, and said with extremely cordial concern:
"How about it, do you need to rest for a while? Although the opponent is very weak to you, it consumes a lot of physical strength, right?"
Ryo Iguchi, who had not yet been carried out of the dojo, twitched his lips, "What do you mean your opponent is weak, you bastard!" That kid Kyousuke Hojo used a whole set of Beichen Itto-ryu tactics and didn't defeat me! I admit defeat!
After hearing Chiba Seinosuke's words, everyone looked at Hojo Kyousuke nervously, expecting his answer. Indeed, although it is a torture, this is the art of swordsmanship that emphasizes killing with one strike. That is, the kind where a child can kill someone with a knife. Therefore, even if the level is much different, you still have to concentrate, which is very energy-consuming.
What's more, this is already Hojo Kyousuke's third competition!
Hojo Kyosuke lowered his head, shook hands, felt it, and whispered with a serious face:
"It's really a bit big. To be honest, I haven't consumed this much in years."
Upon hearing this, old man Qianye immediately said: "Then let's rest for half an hour before starting the next one!"
Hojo Kyosuke tilted his head with a strange expression and opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by a loud shout.
"How is that possible? Everyone is allowed to take a five-minute break. This is the rule that was agreed upon at the very beginning. If we change it now, wouldn't we, Beichen Yida-ryu, be ridiculed by others!"
The fifth generation Otsuka Yoichiro said righteously.
As soon as these words came out, even those who had long thought about defeating Beichen's Yidao style in a wheel battle could not stand it.
The Sixth Generation, it seems you have a reason to lose.
The Godaime's white eyebrows trembled in anger, and he was about to curse angrily when he heard the founder of his family speak.
"Yeah, it was so exhausting that I had to rest for about half a minute to recover."
Hojo Kyosuke's tone was deep.
Otsuka Yoichiro was horrified: "Half a minute?!"
"Oh, I'm already resting."
Hojo Kyosuke nodded, then glanced around and said:
"Who's next? Come up and get chopped." (End of Chapter)
