I Was a Swordsman in Ancient Japan

　　 Hearing Makino’s words, Ogata later realized that in the sword hall, including Master Hanbei Sakahara, were looking at him with doubts.

　　 And in the center of the sword hall, there is already a senior who is also looking at Ogata with a puzzled look.

　　 Just now, Ogata had been studying the system with great concentration, and when it was his turn to compete with swords, he didn't hear Master Hanbei Sakihara calling him at all.

　　 After a few awkward laughs, Ogata immediately got up and walked quickly to the sword stand not far away, randomly picked a wooden sword, and then walked quickly to the front of his opponent this time.

　　 His opponent this time is Ogata's senior.

　　Although he is not familiar with this senior, according to the memory in his mind-his senior is much better than Makino.

　　Because he was not familiar with Ogata, his senior did not have any greetings with Ogata, he directly put the wooden sword in his left waist and squatted down.

　　 Ogata followed suit, holding the wooden sword around his left waist and squatting down.

　　 Seeing that both of them were ready for the sword, Sakihara Hanbei directly yelled "Go".

　　 Ogata and his brother are in the middle posture.

　　 The so-called middle posture is one of the sword-holding postures of Japanese kendo.

　　 There are three main tool positions: upper, middle, and lower.

　　 In addition to these three main knife-holding positions, there are other types of less popular knife-holding positions, such as eight-phase and drag knife.

　　Different sword-holding postures have different attack characteristics.

　　The middle posture is to point the tip of the sword to the face of the enemy. It is the most commonly used sword-holding posture for samurai.

　　The middle posture is a more versatile knife-holding posture, which can be used for attack and defense.

　　 The upper posture is a posture with the sword held high above the head, mainly attacking, but because the sword is held high above the head, the body's door is opened wide, which can be regarded as a weak defensive sword-holding posture.

　　 In the lower posture, the sword is placed lower, and the point of the sword is pointed at the enemy's knee. It is a defensive posture that is strong in defense and short in attack.

　　 According to different combat needs, switching between different postures is the basic skill of those great swordsmen.

　　Ogata is obvious-it can't be done yet.

　　 At present, he is only good at the two postures of the upper and middle stages.

　　 For other postures other than the upper and middle stages, Ogata can really be said to be stubborn.

　　 and the elder brother each hold a middle posture, facing each other.

　　 No one took the lead in attacking.

　　 Whoever moves first often means whoever has the flaw first.

　　 Therefore, no one will move lightly until the moment when he is confident that he can hit the enemy with one blow. Unless you are a fool.

　　After confronting the brother for a long time, the first person to lose his breath-it is the brother.

　　 Senior brother stepped closer and rushed into Ogata's attack range-at the same time, Ogata entered his own attack range.

　　 After stepping into the range that was enough to launch a stab at Ogata, the brother directly used Sakura's stab technique, bird stab, to stab Ogata's chest.

　　 Brother's movements are fast, but Ogata's eyes can still catch it.

Snapped!

　　 There was a loud crash of wood.

　　Ogata opened the stab of the brother with a sword, and quickly backed up a few steps to get away from the brother.

　　 The first round of offense and defense by the duo ended in a tie.

　　——It's really a brother...

　　 Ogata adjusted his breathing while secretly thinking in his heart.

　　——The speed just now is really unusual...In terms of strength, this senior should be on par with me...

　　 Sakihara One-Sword Style is a one-sword style of swordsmanship that was just born in the world.

The founder of 　　 Sakahara Ichito Style is the older brother of Sakura Hanbei, the master of Ogata and others, Denichiro Sakahara.

　　 Denichiro is a great swordsman who knows many genres of swordsmanship.

　　 Near middle age, Denichiro took the best of each school and developed a brand-new one-sword sword technique-Sakihara One-sword style.

　　 Sakihara One Sword Art is a very simple swordsmanship, because it only has 4 tricks in total-Bird Sting, Water Falling, Climbing Tower, Dragon Tail.

　　Bird stab: sudden stab technique.

　　水落: Next splitting technique.

　　 climb upstairs: up and down.

　　 Dragon Tail: Horizontal cutting technique.

　　 There are no bells and whistles. Sakihara's swordsmanship has only 4 practical sword skills with different attack methods from beginning to end.

After 　　 Denichiro researched the Sakihara Kazuki, he passed it on to his younger brother, Hanbei.

　　 Not long after passing Sakura Ichito to Hanbei, Chuanichiro died with regret.

　　In order to carry forward the sword technique that his brother took nearly a lifetime to invent, Hanbei established this "Sakura Sword Museum".

　　 is trying to carry forward this young swordsmanship of Sakihara's sword style.

After 　　, Okonomi was extremely fortunate to become one of the first disciples who worshipped Hanbei Gate.

　　——This brother is really strong...

　　——If you don’t want to make any tricks, I’m afraid it’s hard to beat this brother...

　　 Okata thought for a moment.

　　 then adjusted his sword holding posture.

　　 Raised the sword in his hand over his head and adjusted the middle posture to the upper posture.

　　 After Ogata changed the sword-holding posture to the upper posture, it caused a burst of wonder in the sword hall.

　　 Makino, who was sitting on his knees and watching the battle, whispered with a volume that only he could hear:

　　 "Senior is going to use his best "Shuiluo"..."

　　Ogata’s best sword technique is the cleavage technique "Water Fall"—this is not a secret in the Sakura Sword Museum.

　　 After all, everyone usually learns from each other, who is good at which sword skill, everyone has already been clear.

　　 After Ogata changed the sword-holding posture to the upper posture, many people in the hall were like Makino—thinking that Ogata would use his best sword skill "Water Fall" to defeat his opponent.

　　 And Ogata’s opponent, his senior, thinks so too.

　　 Ogata’s brother swallowed and silently prepared to defend against "water fall."

　　 Ogata moved his feet~www.wuxiahere.com~ and slowly narrowed the distance between him and his brother.

　　 And the brother did not deliberately avoid it, letting Ogata approach and the distance between the two slowly narrowing.

　　The next moment when the distance between the two is narrowed until the swords of both can touch each other——

　　 Ogata leaped up slightly, making a slash with a strong force.

　　 And the senior, who was prepared for defense early, raised the sword in his hand at an extremely fast speed, ready to catch the sword that Ogata had cut down.

　　 Looking at the senior who raised the sword, a faint smile appeared on Ogata's face.

--I won.

　　 After murmured this way in his heart with a very determined tone, Ogata's waist and abdomen slammed hard and quickly "sinked" back to the ground after jumping into the air.

　　 The seniors who were deceived by Ogata's fake actions just now still appear to be defending with a sword.

　　 The current appearance of the brother, it can be said that the door is wide open.

　　 The state where the empty door is wide open is the easiest state to "dead" in Bi Sword.

　　 Aiming at the brother's chest, Ogata directly used the only thrust technique in Sakura's knife stream-"Bird Sting".

"Well!"

　　 The senior who was pricked by the tip of the wooden sword on his chest, took a few steps backwards, and then fell to the ground.
