I assembled the strongest swordsman group.

In the blink of an eye, he shifted his feet and appeared in front of the enemy soldiers.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

In an instant... in just a moment, the two swords in his hands sprayed out mouthfuls of blood mist!

Thanks to his self-created Hokushin Two-Sword Style and the added advantage of his talent for "Ambidextrous Fighting," Chiba Dozaburo's greatest strength lies in taking on multiple opponents at once!

Every group that tries to overwhelm Chiba Michizaburo by virtue of its numerical advantage will suffer the consequences.

In order to quickly defeat the surrounding enemy troops and support other battlefields, Chiba Michizaburo did not hesitate to use his best skills.

He quickly changed his stance, placing the two swords in his hands on either side at chest height, and then spun his body like a windmill.

His body is the central axis of a windmill, and the two swords in his hands are the blades of the windmill.

With just one rotation, several enemy soldiers were turned into corpses on the ground.

As the machine spun again, several more people collapsed to the ground, groaning in pain!

As it turned out, even the soldiers who had consumed the "Decisive Battle Pool" could only be defeated by the overwhelming strength of the "Five Swordsmen of Chiba".

Among them, the most outstanding performers and the ones who killed the most enemies were Chiba Sadakichi and Chiba Eijiro.

One of them was one of the founders of the Hokushin Itto-ryu school, and the other was once recognized as the "strongest in Edo"... Their heroic figures, wielding their swords with ease to kill enemies, are both admirable and terrifying!

Chiba Sadakichi is already a middle-aged man over fifty.

As we all know, "getting out of shape" is a difficult hurdle for middle-aged people to overcome.

Chiba Sadakichi's current appearance... to put it bluntly, is the best illustration of the term "overweight middle-aged man".

Her cheeks sagged, and her loose clothes couldn't hide her enormous belly...

However, even as his body decayed and degenerated, his limbs and bones still remembered the way to wield the sword and the techniques of combat!

Jutaro, Tamon Shiro, and the others were merely displaying the style of the Hokushin Itto-ryu.

And Chiba Sadakichi—he himself is the embodiment of the Hokushin Itto-ryu!

At this moment, he stood alone facing more than ten enemy soldiers, his sword held imposingly, its tip twitching gently like the tail of a wagtail.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The sounds of metal clashing against metal, blocking attacks and deflecting weapons, and the scraping of feet sliding on the ground... these two sounds blended together.

Chiba Sadakichi stepped forward and weaved through the enemy soldiers.

In a split second, he moved behind the enemy ranks.

The enemy soldiers were frozen in place, as if petrified.

The next instant—

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

Puffs of blood mist splattered out!

The enemy soldiers gushed blood, swayed a few times, and then collapsed heavily to the ground.

At the same time, a pile of severed arms fell to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the area behind Chiba Sadakichi turned into a "no man's land".

With his back to the corpses scattered on the ground and the streams of blood still gushing outwards, he calmly assumed the stance of a warrior, shaking off the bloodstains remaining on his blade.

As for Chiba Eijiro... needless to say.

Chiba Eijiro, who is only in his early twenties this year, is far from his peak.

In other words, he is still growing! There are endless possibilities!

Compared to when he fought Qingdeng, his strength has increased significantly.

If Chiba Sadakichi, Chiba Michizaburo, and others were engaged in "fighting," then he was engaged in "massacre"!

The immense difference in strength made his battle resemble a one-sided massacre!

……

……

A powerful enemy is attacking, and Edo is in dire straits... Faced with this unprecedented crisis, the heroes of Edo did not stand idly by.

"Eight-foot-tall unparalleled" Oishi Susumu, "Position of Momoi" Momoi Haruzou, "Ibaba's little tengu" Iba Hachiro... These renowned swordsmen stepped forward and spontaneously participated in the battle, guarding various strategic locations in Edo.

With their unparalleled individual prowess, they managed to withstand the enemy's offensive! Even the "biological legion" that had fought the "Decisive Battle" couldn't break through their defenses!

Chapter 949 Akasaka Mikado Destroyed! Elodie in Danger! [5600]

Akasaka-Mikado is located on the west side of Edo Castle, not far from Yotsuya-Mikado.

The Faki coalition came from the west, and Akasaka Mikado was situated in such a location... it was as if he had directly run into the enemy's army!

It's no exaggeration to say that Akasaka-Mikado is one of the most heavily defended and fiercely contested locations among the "Thirty-six Mikoto"!

Such a crucial position naturally requires a powerful and reliable force to defend it.

At this very moment, this unit is fighting fiercely! Driving every enemy soldier out of Akasaka Gate!

……

……

Edo, Akasaka Mikado—

The two armies engaged in a fierce tug-of-war around the Koryo Gate (the first gate) of Akasaka-no-Mikoto.

On one side was a fierce and relentless army, determined to breach Akasaka Mikado's defenses.

The other side remained firmly rooted to the city gate, refusing to yield an inch.

The city gates and surrounding areas were littered with mangled corpses.

A massive amount of blood flowed onto the ground, staining it and causing it to lose its original color.

The pungent smell of blood filled the air, making it difficult to breathe.

This scene, this sight, silently proclaimed the intensity of the battle.

In the blink of an eye, another wave of enemy soldiers charged forward menacingly.

With the added advantage of the "Decisive Battle of Dian", the enemy's morale remained in a rather strange state.

Even if they suffer extremely heavy casualties, they will not easily retreat.

Even if they suffer a temporary setback, they will quickly regroup and charge forward again.

Facing this vast and numerous enemy force, an aged male voice suddenly rang out from the Korean gate of Akasaka Mikado:

"Elodie! Let's go!"

The girl responded loudly:

"Yes!"

The next moment, the old man and the woman glided forward and bumped into the enemy soldiers!

Thanks to Kondo Shusuke's meticulous polishing, Yamato no Kami Yasusada's blade was restored to its superb state of being able to cut through iron like mud, and its chilling gleam shot into the eyes of the enemy soldiers.

Elodie made the most of her small stature, agile feet, and quick movements.

Before the enemy soldiers could react, the golden ponytail entered their field of vision.

Yamato no Kami Yasusada's blade hovered in mid-air, momentarily still—the next instant, it swept out like a hurricane! In one swift motion, it slashed out a fan-shaped arc of blood!

Before the blood arc could completely dissipate, Elodie immediately unleashed a second strike, and another blood arc shot out.

The two arcs of blood formed a fleeting "X" shape.

Drops of blood fell on her cheeks, making her skin appear even whiter.

To be honest, even today, she still feels worried and fearful when she steps onto the battlefield.

But after firmly grasping the Yamato no Kami Yasusada and facing the vast enemy forces, all these negative emotions dissipated.

Instead, there is a strong sense of responsibility and mission!

With this thought in mind, her gaze became even more resolute, and her strikes became even more swift.

Her current skill level is far from being that of a sword master; at most, she can only be called a "sword expert."

In comparison, the swordsmanship displayed by Kondo Shusuke beside her was the true skill of a master swordsman!

The old man gripped the two Wang Qingshi tightly in his palm, his narrow, squinting eyes opening a crack, from which streaks of sharp light burst forth.

"Old friend... lend me a hand...!"

After muttering these words, he picked up the two Wang Qingshi in his hands and adopted a blue-eyed stance.

Then--

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

Four cutting sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

The old man slipped through the gaps between the four enemy soldiers, leaving four flashes of light behind him.

Before the glint of the blade had faded, blood had already splattered.

With unstoppable momentum, he continued to wield his sword and charge forward, like Mount Tai pressing down on the next enemy soldier.

The portrait of Kondo Shusuke is like that of a completely different person.

He usually presents himself as "lazy and listless" and "plagued by injuries".

Without explanation, an uninformed person would never guess that he was a swordsman.
