Miss Heber is fighting her way out of the Lostbelt!

Of course, according to the standards of later generations, Gui Yi Fa Yan was just a swordsman who mastered a secret sword, but because of her outstanding contribution to kendo, she was posthumously recognized as a sword saint by later generations.

Among the three founders of Kendo, there is only one true Sword Saint, and that is the Great General of the Eastern Kingdom.

She completely verified the path of the secret sword, and went one step further on top of the secret sword, creating a realm called "Sword Saint".

As for the last founder, Tamamonomae...to be honest, her other identities are more legendary than her achievements in kendo, but in terms of kendo, she doesn't have that many deeds.

If Tengu's successors and the general himself had not refuted him, later swordsmen would have almost wanted to put Tamamonomae among the three founders of kendo.

After all, there are traces of the swordsmanship of both Tengu and the general.

Take Tennen Rishin-ryu as an example. Its founder came from the Tenshin Shoden Katori Shinto-ryu - the latter of which came directly from the divine manifestation of the Shogun.

According to this classification, Tennen Rishin-ryu is also the orthodox inheritance of the Shogun, but the founder Kondo Uchi Kuranosuke added elements of Tengu swordsmanship into the inherited swordsmanship.

There are hundreds of schools of martial arts in the East, large and small, some of which are derived from the orthodox teachings of the Shogun, some from the secret teachings of Tengu, or some that combine the strengths of both schools to create new ones.

However, no one inherited Tamamonomae's so-called swordsmanship.

Chapter 89: Do you enjoy sword fighting? Hakich, you...

Heber pursed his lips and gave a polite smile.

What else could she say?

Sword Saint? She doesn't know any sword style at all!

At this point someone will ask, didn't Hebe master all the prerequisite sword techniques of the Secret Sword Tengu by destroying Tengu's beloved sword? Why can't he be considered to have mastered the Eight Ryu of Kurama?

The answer is obvious, because only by mastering the "secret sword" can one be awarded the title of "Menkyo Kaiden" and be able to leave the dojo and declare that he has mastered this kendo school.

Swordsmen need to align their spirit with the founder of the school and simulate the founder's way of thinking as much as possible. Only in this way can they understand the founder's intentions when creating the secret sword. This is the key to mastering the secret sword...and the problem lies here. Heber will not lower himself and align with the consciousness of the so-called "founder".

She doesn't even have much respect for kendo itself.

In Heber's eyes, a sword is a sword. As long as it can solve the problem, it doesn't matter what you use it for.

So when she was fighting against Okita Souji, she swung General Somiya Kotetsu like a club. Although the effect was amazing, it had little to do with swordsmanship.

There was no need to say more. Okita Souji just mentioned this briefly and the fox demon realized his problem.

Heber frowned.

From this perspective, the distance between her and the so-called "Kendo" is extremely far.

Souji Okita doesn't quite understand Heber's difficulties. In her perspective, Heber is simply a purely violent monster.

"She can make mistakes a hundred times, a thousand times, but how many mistakes can I make?" Okita Souji thought about this and broke out in a cold sweat.

The answer was even more tragic than she thought: even if Souji Okita never made a mistake, as time went by, the balance of victory would eventually tilt towards Heber.

Because Okita Souji was unable to cause any effective damage - she watched her secret sword, Wuming, hit Heber twice!

The greatest achievement was the successful destruction of Hebe's unwashed haori, at the cost of her beloved sword, Kashuu Kiyomitsu, being scrapped.

It is not easy to change to a sword that suits you. Although California Qingguang is a cheap sword, I wonder how much it will cost to find a replacement sword!

Thinking of this, the expression on Okita Souji's face became a little distorted.

The two looked at each other, speechless.

Fortunately, at this moment, the happy voices of the Shinsengumi members were heard: "He's awake! Chief Kondo is awake!"

Kondo Isami had actually woken up a long time ago, but after realizing the current situation, he found it really difficult to speak.

When he saw Heber coming in, he quickly turned over, pushed away the support of his team members, knelt on the tatami and saluted Heber solemnly.

"After the Ikedaya Incident, the Shinsengumi's fame soared, but Okita's health deteriorated." Kondo Isami gritted his teeth, lowered his body, and placed his forehead on the ground. "I was too eager to take care of Okita, and I offended you. The fault lies entirely with me. I hope you won't blame Okita. She simply didn't understand the truth."

The faces of the surrounding Shinsengumi members showed undisguised anger and shame, but no one dared to draw their swords and stand up.

Heber raised an eyebrow.

This is the art of speaking, and no one can find any fault with it.

Kondo Isami's words completely established the image of a good leader who cares about his subordinates, is willing to take responsibility, and is responsible.

No wonder the Shinsengumi was able to gain a foothold in Kyoto and even become the police force in Kyoto... As a superior, what he likes to see most is subordinates like Kondo Isami who are willing to get their hands dirty and take the lead in taking responsibility. He is indeed a useful knife.

But Heber didn't need to do anything with the knife, she only cared about one thing.

"Do you have a secret sword?" Heber asked.

"Yes." Kondo Isami replied.

Although he was not as good as Okita Souji in being able to innovate on the school's secret sword itself, as the master of the Tennen Rishin-ryu, Kondo Isami naturally mastered the school's secret sword.

In other words, he could also call himself a swordsman.

"Excellent." Heber put his hands in his sleeves. "Use it."

She had a meaningful smile on her face: "Don't let me down."

......

Fifteen minutes later, Kondo Isami's injured wrist had been bandaged.

It’s a pity that Nagasomi Kotetsu had been completely destroyed by Heber, so Kondo Isami could only borrow a sword from someone and use his other hand to form the structure of the Tennen Rishin Flow.

The natural rational style focuses on improvisation and timely changes according to the enemy's reaction... This is why Okita Souji is confused.

In her opinion, there was no need for Heber to neglect the main purpose and study kendo, it would be enough for him to just swing his fists.

And this is the strongest and most invincible "adaptability", which even transcends the stereotypes of kendo itself.

Sword masters of all generations have sought to expand outward and upward, striving to surpass the limits of kendo. However, Heber was born to transcend limits, yet he wants to return to the narrow world of kendo... Is this good? This is not good.

On the other side, as Kondo Isami took a stance, the light of a secret sword began to appear on the blade.

[Secret Sword: Natural Immovability]

[Nature: Blade (representing the principles of fighting, resistance, and domination)]

【Natural and natural, unmoved in troubled times. 】

[The holder of this secret sword can bear more severe injuries when injured, and will not be affected by the wound when the sword is drawn.]

It is simpler and more primitive than Okita Souji's secret sword mechanism.

But for the members of the Shinsengumi, it is surprisingly useful.

It’s a pity that Heber had slapped Kondo Isami to the ground, and the latter couldn’t even get up. It can be seen that this secret sword has an endurance limit.

The light of the secret sword faded, and Kondo Isami returned the sword to its original owner, his forehead already covered with beads of sweat.

His talent is not as good as Okita Souji's, so he can only feel how terrifying Heber is when he uses the secret sword.

For example, although Kondo Isami knew that his strength and talent were not as good as Okita Souji's, as a swordsman, Kondo Isami was still able to estimate Okita Souji's level.

But he couldn't feel Heber's limits.

Thinking of this, Kondo Isami deeply regretted his previous hostility towards Heber.

He could have tried to tie Hebe to the Shinsengumi's chariot, which would have made their cause as solid as a rock.

Now he had to make sure Heber didn't go over to the anti-Qing forces—and that meant the possibility of another conflict.

And all this shouldn't have happened! Kondo Isami lamented in his heart that if the organization hadn't always been like this, he might not have created an enemy for the Shinsengumi that must not be provoked.

“I wonder if you’re satisfied…”

Kondo Isami forced out an ugly smile, his body still trembling, sweat soaking his back.

"Satisfied." Heber said slowly, "I am very satisfied with your behavior of 'caring for your subordinates'."

Kondo Isami suddenly felt an indescribable chill.

Heber's voice rang in his ears: "Since you care so much about Miss Okita and want to seek my forgiveness... then you should resign from the position of Shinsengumi chief and start over as a doorman."

Everyone was shocked.

However, before they could make any move, a chilling chill quietly appeared on their necks.

——Don’t move, or you will die.

Kondo Isami knelt there, staring blankly at Heber as he walked out the door.

The flaxen hair swayed behind the girl like a fox's tail in the dark night.

The Shinsengumi leader who assassinated the former director now had blue lips. He wanted to fight to the death, but his heart was empty and he could no longer muster any courage.

"Demon fox...demon fox!" This was the only thought left in his mind.

......

"Ms. Souji, how is our rent calculated?"

She put her hands in her sleeves, turned her head and looked at the surprised female swordsman with a smile.

"Even though such a conflict has occurred, you don't seem to mind at all?" Okita Souji sighed. "Aren't you being too optimistic?"

Of course, the Shinsengumi members in the room didn't think so.

Heber smiled. In her eyes, the entire Shinsengumi was just a hunched-backed, ruffled-haired kitten.

When a good cat comes, there is a cat strip; when a bad cat comes, there is a data cable. When the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth.

What's more, if she really wanted to do something, she only needed to go to the center of Kyoto and shout.

Soon the general would descend from the sky and slaughter all the enemies.

Hebe's expression became calm and profound again: She gave away five amulets in the Heian period. Now, a thousand years have passed, what does this person look like now?

"By the way, what's your name?" asked Okita Souji.

Heber curled his lips: "Tamamonomae."

Okita Souji: “?”

Heber: "What's the problem?"

"Next time you make up a pseudonym, don't make it up so big." Okita Souji hesitated, "Among the three founders of Kendo, Tamamonomae may be the least respected, but he is more than just a swordsman."

This woman is really not afraid of Inari Taisha coming to her door.

Heber nodded: "Then write it, Tamamo Aria."

Okita Souji took a deep breath. This guy is having a falling out with Tamamonomae, right? Wait...

As if realizing a possibility, Okita Souji's gaze gradually became terrifying.

Could it be that this guy who calls himself Tamamonomae is actually the true successor of the "Tamamono-ryu swordsmanship"?

East Country Volume: 90 This world is a huge card pool

Heber stood in the courtyard, watching the Shinsengumi members flee in panic in the night, as if some terrifying beast was hiding in this place.

This scene made Heber laugh uncontrollably. She had no good feelings towards the Shinsengumi.

Kondo Isami knelt down quickly, which made Heber give up the idea of starting a war. This was because in the latter's view, the people in the Shinsengumi were about to die and were destined not to live long.

What's more, the most important problem facing Heber now is to find a weapon that suits him.

I was looking for a sword, but after I found it, it broke within two rounds. What happened?

Fortunately, after many experiences and lessons, Heber has probably figured out the criteria for judging the "Sobek Training".

——The more a sword has been in the hands of a famous swordsman and the more famous it is, the more likely it is to become damaged.

This creates a problem.

A famous sword usually passes through the hands of many generations.

Whether they are ronin, samurai or nobles, the memories of their swordsmanship are left on famous swords.

Those old swords that have been in circulation for decades or even hundreds of years...the memories of sword techniques contained in them are immeasurable. In other words, they are a mixed pool without targeted extraction.

On the other hand, the best goal of "Sobek's Training" is to create a sword that will always fight with the same master after it is cast - and the swordsmanship of the weapon's owner cannot be too poor.

For example, the beloved sword of Kuramayama Daitengu allowed Heber to fully acquire all the basic swordsmanship of Kurama Eight-Ryu except the "Secret Sword"; and before that, Nagazo Mikotoru also allowed Heber to obtain the "Tenen Rishin-ryu" swordsmanship mastered by Kondo Isami.

That’s right, the “Nagaso Mikotoru” in Kondo Isami’s hand was a fake, but he always thought it was the real thing.

It was not made by Kotetsu, but by the forge of the late Edo period swordsmith Yotsuya Masamune. Of course, in terms of casting technique alone, the latter was no less skilled than the former.
