Becoming a Yakuza Boss from Tokyo

Even if he couldn't get guidance from Momojuro, at least he could have a sparring match with Busujima Saeko or Bando Ueto, which would be of great help in improving his swordsmanship.

However, reality is often not as good as he imagined.

“Uh…why do I still have to do basic training?

Can you have a practical training with me directly, Busujima-senpai?"

After joining the Kendo Club, Long Yan finally understood why the Kendo Club had no instructor.

Because of Rengoku Momojuro's strength, ordinary instructors knew that they were not strong enough and dared not take on the position of instructor.

A true master would generally not leave his dojo to work in a school. This resulted in the Kendo Club of Xinghai High School having only a math teacher as "supervisor" since Rengoku Momojuro entered the school, while the usual training was handled by Bando Ueto, the backbone.

As a freshman this year and a new member of the kendo club, Ryuhiko did not receive any preferential treatment just for defeating Bando Ueto. After completing the assembly, Bando Ueto directly led the members of the kendo club to practice air swings, just like what those people did before Ryuhiko challenged Bando Ueto yesterday.

Realizing that something was wrong, Long Yan immediately raised his objection.

Hey, hey, except for the pitiful basics of fighting in my previous life, all of my swordsmanship comes from the system. Although I also know that the basics are important, I can practice these basic exercises by myself at home. There is no need to come to the kendo club specially. The reason why I joined the kendo club is purely for leveling up.

Perhaps because of his life experience in his previous life, Long Yan always has a clear purpose before doing anything. Although there was nothing wrong with Bando Ueto's arrangement, it completely disrupted his decision-making, and he had to find a way to remedy the situation.

But after hearing his words, before Busujima Saeko could say anything, Bando Ueto, the acting instructor of the kendo club, spoke first in angrily.

"Uesugi you idiot!

Don't be complacent just because you won!

The basic practice of Kendo is also a very important part. If you neglect to practice, it will be like a blade that has not been sharpened for a long time. Even the most gifted weapon will eventually become dull and rusty!

Also, although Busujima-san is only a sophomore like Rengoku-san, she is the vice-chairman of our Kendo Club. Here, you should call her Vice-chairman Busujima..."

Bando Ueto's voice was as majestic as his face, coupled with his unique loud voice, and Long Yan even had the illusion that the dust on the beams was shaking a few times because of his voice.

However, after hearing his proposal, Busujima Saeko seemed to have shown great interest and actually waved her hand to stop Bando Ueto from saying the next words.

She simply tidied up her long purple hair that was stuck to her cheeks due to sweat, and then looked at Long Yan in front of her with her clear and gentle eyes and smiled softly: "Okay, it just so happens that I am also very interested in the sword moves you used to defeat Senior Bando yesterday."

Although he was slightly distracted for a moment when the extremely beautiful Busujima Saeko smiled, he was not the kind of wimp who could not walk when seeing a beautiful woman.

After hearing that Busujima Saeko agreed to his request, he immediately nodded in delight and said, "Then I'll trouble Deputy Minister Busujima. Please give me your guidance!"

However, just as he finished speaking, Busujima Saeko continued with a smile: "But if you lose to me, you have to practice hard in the future."

Chapter 25: The Secret of Practical Level

Busujima Saeko's words made Long Yan's expression slightly stunned.

Although his Kamiya Katsushim-ryu and Ga-ryu swordsmanship had both improved by one level after yesterday's battle with Bandō Ueto, it was hard for Ryuhiko to believe that he could defeat Busujima Saeko, who surpassed him in all aspects in both swordsmanship and combat level.

However, now that it has come to this, and he was the one who proposed the challenge, if he backs down now, not only Busujima Saeko, but he himself would look down on him.

Long Yan quickly put away the joy he had just shown when Busujima Saeko agreed to challenge him. He clenched the bamboo sword in his hand and said in a serious voice: "Well, please give me some advice, Deputy Minister Busujima!"

Hearing this, Busujima Saeko just smiled, looked at Long Yan who had raised the bamboo sword in his hand and assumed a mid-range stance, and pointed to the protective gear beside him.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to call me Vice Minister as Senior Bando said, just be casual.

Well, let's just practice according to the actual combat rules. After all, you have just joined the Kendo Club and you may not have had time to familiarize yourself with the relevant rules of the competition.

But, don't you really consider wearing some protective gear?

My sword is not as gentle as Bando-senpai's."

In response to Busujima Saeko's kind reminder, Long Yan just shook his head with a firm expression.

Of course he understood what Busujima Saeko meant. Her actual combat level was level 9, which was achieved through real fighting. Even though the bamboo sword had a certain cushioning effect, once it landed on a person it would at least leave a bright red mark.

However, even so, Long Yan still rejected Busujima Saeko's kindness without hesitation.

"No need. Only by experiencing the pain of a bamboo sword falling on my body with my own body can I become stronger."

In fact, there was still half a sentence that Long Yan didn't say.

The reason why he was eager to increase his strength, in addition to fighting for a second way out for himself, was because he understood that only by becoming strong could he protect everything he had, including his life.

Maybe it hurts when the bamboo sword hits him now, but the next time it hits him, it may not be as simple as a bamboo sword.

Seeing that Long Yan insisted, Busujima Saeko did not force it. She just shrugged lightly and took the same middle stance as Long Yan: "Go ahead and attack me. Treat me as a real enemy."

Hearing this, Long Yan just nodded very seriously, and then attacked directly with the knife. He did not use the sword skill [My Style·Flash] at the beginning, but started the attack with a very common upper slash. After all, in a real life-and-death fight, the enemy would most likely not give him the opportunity to sheath the knife and pose.

The remnants of the experience card brought speed and strength to his body, and the experience of fighting in his previous life provided him with the accuracy of chopping. Because of the huge gap in strength between the two, he did not hold back at all. The bamboo sword in his hand was wrapped in a strong wind, and he chopped towards Busujima Saeko's face with incredible precision.

However, facing Ryuhiko's attack, Busujima Saeko did not show any abnormality, and even the smile on her face did not change. She just stepped slightly to the side and avoided Ryuhiko's upper slash by a hair's breadth.

"Forearm!"

With a light shout, the numbness and soreness in his right arm almost made Long Yan lose his grip on the bamboo sword in his hand.

So fast!

Long Yan's pupils dilated when he was hit in the forearm. He knew that Busujima Saeko was stronger than Bando Ueto, but he didn't expect that Busujima Saeko, who was at level 12 in Busujima-ryu, would be so much stronger than Bando Ueto, who was at level 9 in Shigen-ryu.

Is it because of the bonus of actual combat level?

As Long Yan was thinking, the scene of his battle with Bando Ueto yesterday flashed quickly through his mind.

The practical combat level is the least conspicuous of his three martial arts, and it is also the only martial art without any description or derivative skill column. He has never understood the significance of the practical combat level, or how it is expressed.

But through yesterday's battle and Busujima Saeko's sword just now, he was sure of it.

The actual combat level can take his combat effectiveness to a higher level based on his original martial arts skills!

It was also because of this that he had the opportunity to defeat Bando Ueto, who was at level 9 of the Manifestation Style, yesterday.

The joy in her eyes flashed by, and on the other side, after hitting Long Yan's forearm, Busujima Saeko also distanced herself from him again and asked softly: "Do you want to do it again?"

"Come!"

The discovery of the secret of the actual combat level made Long Yan very happy. Busujima Saeko in front of him seemed to have turned into an experience package at this moment. With the will to fight in his eyes, Long Yan answered without any hesitation.

"very good.

Well, this time let me see the sword-drawing move you made yesterday.

Or do you want me to take the initiative to attack?"

In the sword attack just now, although Busujima Saeko held back at the end, overall, she did not let up at all.

In her opinion, Long Yan was probably just a young genius who had some basic skills in swordsmanship, but was a bit lazy. Although his sword move yesterday made her feel extremely amazed, even the most talented swordsman would be no better if he neglected to hone his skills.

On this point, her opinion was consistent with Bando Ueto, so when Ryuhiko challenged her, she agreed without hesitation.

Compared to Bando Ueto's preaching, perhaps letting Ryuhiko experience the gap between the two firsthand can better correct his laziness.

However, when Long Yan was hit by her bamboo sword in a crushing manner, he did not show any fear or retreat because of the difference in strength between the two sides, and even ignited a stronger desire to fight. She suddenly realized that she seemed to have misunderstood something.

Long Yan and she are indeed of the same kind, but this kind of thing may not refer to the fact that both of them are descendants of the ancient swordsmanship.

But Long Yan, like her, has a warlike gene in his bones.

The gentleness in Busujima Saeko's eyes was replaced by a sharp look, and Ryuhiko inserted the bamboo sword into the belt of his kendo uniform just like yesterday.

There was no need to wait for Busujima Saeko to attack. Long Yan, who had already accumulated strength, chose to take the initiative.

I flow in a flash!

The sword was drawn out from the belt of the kendo uniform at high speed. Because of the extremely fast speed of drawing the sword, Long Yan could even smell a slight burning smell from the belt.

After my Liuwu fighting skill was upgraded to level 6, his sword became even faster!

Chapter 26: Smiling Like a Flower

Long Yan's flash is an ultra-high-speed sword-drawing technique that combines charge and attack. It makes up for the disadvantage that the sword-drawing technique is only suitable for close-range sneak attacks in actual combat and is not conducive to movement.

Staring at the bamboo sword coming towards her from Long Yan, a hint of solemnity flashed across Busujima Saeko's eyes for the first time.

Only when you actually face Long Yan's flash, can you understand how fast his sword skill is.

What surprised Busujima Saeko even more was that Ryuhiko's swordsmanship seemed to have improved more than when he fought with Bando Ueto yesterday.

As the inheritor of the ancient swordsmanship, Busujima Saeko clearly understood that the improvement of swordsmanship required long-term polishing and the accumulation of a large amount of practical experience. It was difficult for her to understand why Ryu Yan's swordsmanship had made visible progress in just one day.

In the end, she couldn't figure out the reason and could only attribute it to the fact that Long Yan was a gifted swordsmanship genius.

However, for her who possessed the 12th-level fighting skills of the Busujima style, Long Yan's flash, although amazing, was not powerful enough to leave her helpless.

She did not choose to take on Long Yan's bamboo sword head-on like Bando Ueto did. Instead, she used her vast combat experience to accurately calculate the attack range of Long Yan's bamboo sword the moment Long Yan drew his sword, and then simply took a step back to avoid Long Yan's current strongest sword skill.

However, just as Busujima Saeko dodged Ryuhiko's sword-drawing attack and prepared to counterattack, she swung out the bamboo sword in her hand. Ryuhiko, who was exhausted, did not stop his attack. Instead, he exerted force on his feet, placed his center of gravity on his front foot, and then turned the bamboo sword in his hand, and at the same time took a step forward, he attacked Busujima Saeko, who had just escaped from his attack range, with the posture of a reverse kasaya slash!

My style: Second Flash!

This was the second surprise that Ryuhiko received after his match against Bando Ueto yesterday.

After my swordsmanship was upgraded to level 6, he learned the second skill of my martial arts school, or to be more precise, his skill was a flash combo skill.

After the first strike, follow up with a faster second strike to cause unexpected damage to the enemy.

Facing the approaching Long Yan and the sudden Reverse Kasaya Slash, Busujima Saeko's pupils shrank slightly subconsciously. The amazing second flash made her feel like her hair was standing on end. The instinct from years of martial arts training and the rapid secretion of adrenaline made her body dodge quickly.

"Shh!"

The swift reverse kasaya slash narrowly passed in front of Busujima Saeko's bangs. However, even though the tip of the bamboo sword was wrapped by the leather, the strong gust of wind caused by Long Yan's second flash still took away a strand of Busujima Saeko's hair like a sharpened real sword.

"Card!"

It seemed that she was really angry because of Longyan's second flash. After dodging Longyan's reverse cassock slash, Busujima Saeko swung the bamboo sword in her hand like a snake out of a cave. It missed Longyan's bamboo sword at an extremely tricky angle, passed through the purple hair fluttering in the air, and hit Longyan's chest with great accuracy.

"vomit!"

The huge impact was like being hit by a powerful liver-blasting punch. While being blown away by Busujima Saeko's thrust, the strong feeling of nausea made Long Yan subconsciously retching while leaning on the sword.

“Oh sorry!

I......"

Looking at Ryuhiko who was retching while leaning on his sword, Busujima Saeko realized that she had been forced to use her full strength by Ryuhiko without realizing it, and she hurried forward to check.

However, just as she took a step, Long Yan stretched out his hand and stopped her.

"I... cough cough cough... I'm fine, Busujima-senpai, please stay in the state you were in just now, I can still continue!"

Hearing this, Busujima Saeko's eyebrows knitted together. Looking at Long Yan who had calmed down and stood up straight, she subconsciously persuaded him, "Let's stop here. Although your sword moves are indeed amazing, especially the second slash after the sword slash missed, in the kendo club, except for the Purgatory Head, even I can't completely avoid it, but I have to say that you are not my opponent for the time being."

Facing Busujima Saeko's persuasion, Long Yan, who had re-positioned his sword in the middle position, simply replied calmly: "Of course I know this, but if I give up just because I am not a match, then I am nothing more than that."

Obviously, Long Yan's answer did not satisfy Busujima Saeko. She frowned and had to persuade him again: "Do you really want to win? If you attack me again, I will not show mercy."

"Extremely happy!"

Without saying any more words to Busujima Saeko, Ryuhiko, holding the bamboo sword, immediately attacked Busujima Saeko with an extremely fast thrust.

He did not choose to continue using Flash. After all, sword skills were just sword skills. There was no point in using them again and again when the skills could not cause any damage to the enemy.

The reason why he fought with Busujima Saeko was not simply to win, but he wanted to hone his swordsmanship by fighting with a strong opponent. If he just blindly used the sword skills of the system and ignored the polishing of his own swordsmanship, it would be completely putting the cart before the horse.

Busujima Saeko seemed to be irritated by Ryuhiko's "lack of tact". After deflecting Ryuhiko's thrust with her bamboo sword, she didn't even bother shouting when she hit the target, and directly chopped Ryuhiko's forearm with a ruthless blow.

Compared to the first time when he was hit by Busujima Saeko's bamboo sword which had held back its power, this ruthless sword directly knocked the bamboo sword out of Long Yan's hand.

However, just when Busujima Saeko thought the fight was over, Ryuhiko gritted his teeth, completely ignored his trembling arms, bent down to pick up the bamboo sword on the ground, and after re-assuming the mid-sword stance, he immediately continued to attack Busujima Saeko.

I have to say, Long Yan is really impeccable when it comes to resilience.

In the next thirty minutes, without using any sword skills, he was hit in the forearm twenty-eight times, in the chest seven times, and in the face three times by Busujima Saeko, and he did not hit Busujima Saeko once.

The clapping sounds that echoed throughout the venue made the kendo club members who were sitting nearby feel like they were sitting on pins and needles, as if a thorn in their backs was stuck in their throats!

Even later on, expressions of reluctance appeared on their faces, and even Bando Ueto, whose face was filled with dignity, wanted to stand up and stop this "competition" countless times.

Finally, no matter how strong his willpower was, Long Yan was not the kind of guy in the anime who could continue fighting with the "power of the heart". When his physical strength reached the limit, he collapsed directly on the somewhat cold wooden floor, gasping for breath.

As his opponent, Busujima Saeko actually felt a sense of relief in her heart the moment she saw Ryuhiko fall.
