A youth story of a passerby at the end of the world

"Speaking of which..." He said the suggestion he had wanted to make before, "Are you interested in coming to my place?"

"...Shoko is weak and can't swim." Azusagawa Sakuta whispered the reason. The heart problem has not been solved yet.

Sometimes Azusagawa would add "Miss" after Shoko, and sometimes not. Uesugi Genshin noticed this strange behavior.

"Then let's find another opportunity." He chose to give up temporarily.

This includes Uzuki's mother, Miss Hirokawa. She is obviously a responsible person. Last time, he and Azusakawa killed a small leader who was causing trouble for Miss Hirokawa in the toilet. It was very troublesome to deal with it at that time, so they even put up a sign saying "cleaning in progress" at the door of the toilet. It would be very troublesome to leave at that time.

As for Azusagawa Sakuta, it was obvious that he didn't want to leave alone, but wanted to leave with everyone. However, he couldn't simply leave directly because the terminal was a crowded place with many people and eyes.

The two walked the last section of the road in silence. Before leaving, Uesugi Genshin said to Azusakawa, "If the arms transaction goes smoothly, you can leave on our ship."

"If everything goes well." Azusagawa Sakuta was now somewhat calm. He knew very well that having hope raised and then having it shattered was a very cruel thing.

"Then I'll go first."

After saying that, Uesugi Genshin used the shadows to bypass the Self-Defense Force guards on the coastline and successfully entered the sea and swam towards Jonanjima Park.

This time it will be much easier. Without the heavy luggage, Uesugi Genshin feels as agile as a deep-sea tuna.

To be honest, it was still a little difficult to tell the direction in the sea at night, but when he approached the shore, he clearly heard a song.

The natural and lively singing voice, like a siren, seduces the wanderers on the sea.

"Are you back?" Perhaps hearing the noise on the sea, Yang Nai stopped singing and shouted towards the sea.

Although he wanted to play a joke and pretend that he hadn't come back, he couldn't bear to hear Yang No's hoarse voice. Sugi Genshin responded while stepping on the water, "Yeah."

Then a little light appeared on the boat, which was not easily noticeable from a distance, allowing him to find the ladder and climb up easily.

Immediately afterwards, a towel was handed over and Uesugi Genshin took it and started wiping it.

Yang No looked at her own dignified and beautiful face, and then at Uesugi Genshin. Her eyes and expression were not clear because of the dim light, but she seemed to be smiling mischievously. She asked, "Are you going home directly?"

"I really want to go back directly." Uesugi Genshin, who had relaxed, said with a sigh of relief.

"Me too." Yang No agreed. She said jokingly, "I was thinking about staying on the boat for one night."

"Forget it." Uesugi Genshin said with a smile. He also guessed why Haruno gave up. There was a faint smell of fish on the boat. This was originally Horikita Manabu's fishing boat.

"Yes." Yang Nai replied simply, turned and walked to the cab and started the engine of the fishing boat.

After putting on his clothes, Uesugi Genshin leaned on the railing and looked at the night sky, because he could hardly see anything looking at the sea.

At this time, the stars in the sky are clearly visible, densely scattered on the night sky, and the saying "as bright as the Milky Way" is almost coming true.

There’s something a bit romantic about the end of the world, isn’t there?

Chapter 334: I Want to Learn Kendo

I was still a little sleepy during the morning meeting, so I tried to suppress a yawn.

Uesugi Genshin knocked on the wooden floor of the dojo with the handle of his sword, making crisp bang sounds, and the whispers below instantly disappeared.

"You should have known this privately, so I will announce it directly now. Kiyotaka Ayanokouji will be the captain of the new team, and let us welcome the 12 members of the new team to the executive department."

As soon as he finished speaking, applause broke out in the dojo.

Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, who was sitting upright, bent his body slightly to show his obedience.

At least on the surface, his expressionless face was not out of place compared with the three team leaders behind him who were either rebellious, serious or sloppy.

Of course, it's not just these 12 people who joined. Horikita Suzune had already participated in the training of the executive department, and Amasawa Ichika and Kiryuin Kaede also joined the executive department, or to be more precise, the direct consulting group of the director of the executive department.

At this time, one of them was taking a nap in the room, and the other had not planned to come, but was pulled over by Uesugi Genshin.

I'm talking about Guilongyuan Fenghua. She has a strong physical fitness, but why doesn't she practice her fighting skills?

What? Tianze Yixia didn't come? Then if you can beat this cute junior, then he has nothing to say.

"Then let's start today's morning class." To make a long story short, Uesugi Genshin does not intend to be a leader who likes to talk nonsense, so he just needs to say everything that needs to be said.

The morning class of the executive department basically consists of two things: one is Su Zhen, and the other is actual combat.

But in the end, we have to fight zombies, so everyone is very serious when practicing, and no one will joke about their own life.

It also serves the purpose of warming up, so that you won't suffer embarrassing sprains or something during the actual sparring later on.

Although he was still the one who tested the strength of the executive team members in actual combat, most of the members had already been beaten for a month and had been forced to sum up some combat experience that would make them less embarrassed.

That is to say, you can hold on a little longer and not be killed instantly, but it’s okay, but not much.

The bottom line is that they lack experience and lessons in fighting against living people. Simply put, the blows they made were not painful enough.

In another two or three months, we should be able to be in a good position and gain the upper hand when fighting against other armed forces, not specifically but not limited to the Self-Defense Forces.

With a loud "Duang" sound, Zaimokuza was knocked to the ground.

At this moment, Uesugi Genshin was too lazy to kick the man aside and artificially kept a distance from him. He didn't care whether this would embarrass Zaimokuza. After all, everyone was treated equally.

But now there are basically people everywhere, and it is inevitable to bump into people if you do this.

After waiting for Zaimokuza to stand up and move two steps to the outside, he once again assumed a fighting stance. Compared to the strange "Eehwawa" he had made long ago, he was now calmly looking for opportunities.

Regarding this, Uesugi Genshin was very pleased, and even the Zaimukza had made great progress.

However, he still couldn't get rid of a flaw that was not a big problem, and his intention to attack was already clear in sight.

And if this was a fake, then the subsequent attack would be full of loopholes, because the eyes and the hands were not in the same direction, just like what happened to Hu Bu just now.

As for the reliance on eyes, Uesugi Genshin has no intention of forcibly correcting it. A month of intensive training will not easily correct this common problem.

"Haha!" Zaimokuza Yoshiki kicked the ground hard, rushed towards him, and at the same time launched a feint attack to the left.

But no matter if it was a feint or something else, all the attacks were blocked.

In order to save energy, Uesugi Genshin didn't even think about feeding him a move and directly stabbed him in the left waist.

As Zaimokuza retreated in pain, the wooden sword pierced his face, and Zaimokuza suffered his third defeat.

At this moment, the new members have already had a clear understanding of the force of their department chief. After all, not everyone can control half of the department by themselves.

And it will be their turn next.

"There's no need for Ayanokouji." Uesugi Genshin said as he signaled for the next person to come up.

Although everyone was puzzled, they did not question it.

"His strength is comparable to mine, there's no need for me to waste any more energy." Uesugi Genshin also explained briefly, with a joking tone.

The serious atmosphere became a little more lively, but most people turned their attention towards Ayanokouji because of this "quite".

"Then can you let us see it for ourselves, Minister?" Someone who had the courage to raise an objection spoke up. That person was Ryuen Sho.

Ryuen Sho and Ayanokouji had actually fought each other, so he was very clear about Ayanokouji's strength, and he had no doubts about the current club leader's strength.

But he was still somewhat curious about the strength comparison between the two, so he took the initiative to speak. However, his half-smiley and ruffian expression made his behavior seem like he was looking for trouble.

But people who actually know him know that by calling him the Minister, Ryuen Sho has shown his willingness to obey the Executive Department.

And this arrogant expression is, at best, just... a bad habit.

"......" Uesugi Genshin thought for a moment, then looked at Ayanokouji.

"Although it's troublesome, let's just have a simple fight." Ayanokouji Kiyotaka said as he slowly stood up. He also had his own considerations. Showing off his strength a little at this moment would help establish his authority among his team members and consolidate his position in the executive department.

So even though it was troublesome, he still decided to satisfy the curiosity of Ryuuen and most other people.

"I was at a disadvantage in the last fight, so this time let's use Iaijutsu to decide the outcome." He took the initiative to suggest using the moves that Uesugi Genshin was good at and that he himself was not weak at, that is, the moves that cannot be avoided in kendo, as the scope of this fight.

"Okay." Uesugi Genshin had no objection to this.

The two men stood in the middle of the field, and at the same time put their bamboo swords at their waists.

The person involved was very calm, but the other onlookers all had their eyes wide open, afraid of missing even a second.

As the "whistleblower", Hayato Hayama placed a gold coin on his fingernail and flicked it gently.

A "ding" sound was heard, and everyone's heart, which had been in their throat, was not relieved and even rose higher.

Because in the blink of an eye, the two people standing in the center moved at the same time.

too fast.

Even without blinking, the two people rushing forward at the same time were close to each other in one second, no, half a second.

Two loud strikes of bamboo swords were heard in the air.

The first strike was a tit-for-tat fight between the two men, with the force of the bamboo swords almost breaking, and neither of them was at a disadvantage.

The second attack came when Uesugi Genshin swung his backhand to cut Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's lower back when they passed each other, but Ayanokouji Kiyotaka blocked it with his sword held behind his back.

The next second, the two men slid apart and stood facing each other with knives in the opposite positions.

However, neither of them had the desire to fight anymore, so they lowered their bamboo swords and relaxed.

Applause broke out all around at the same time, although the two people in the middle did not need any applause. They applauded only to vent the shock in their hearts.

"Bravo!"

"I never expected that..."

"咻咻~"

There were also some people whistling in a weird way.

"Now you will take over from me and complete the rest of the exercises." Uesugi Genshin said to Ayanokouji Kiyotaka who originally wanted to sit back in his original seat.

"Huh?!" Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, who was about to go back, froze and looked at Uesugi Genshin with his unique expression of disbelief.

"This is the minister's order." Uesugi Genshin waved his hand and smiled, then sat back in his seat.

"......" There was no choice, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka clenched the bamboo sword in his hand.

It would be fine if it were just like what Uesugi-kun did before, he thought to himself.

So he took the wooden sword that Uesugi Genshin had just used, intending to end the battle quickly.

Then, except for Ryuen Sho, who had fought before but lost, everyone else including Shiroya Ichiro also felt the pressure from their captain's strength.

"We will go to the shopping mall this afternoon to clean up the interior. The details will be explained by our respective captains. Go down and prepare. Dismissed."

At the end, Uesugi Genshin gave a brief explanation and then announced the disbandment.

"I didn't expect you to let them participate in the operation directly." Hachiman, who was holding a knife, said to Uesugi Genshin, "Didn't you say that if everything goes well, we can immediately fight the zombies with guns?"

Signaling him to attack quickly, Uesugi Genshin casually answered Hachiman's doubts, "Some of them have not fought zombies yet. It is true that the probability of accidents will decrease if they use guns, but... do you know why I chose to practice with them one by one? Because losing the courage to face the sword is a very scary thing."

Courage, or numbness, call it what you want.

It's just like doing practice questions and mock tests before an important exam, so that you won't be so nervous when the time comes, simply because you've already become a little numb. It's similar to this.

"......" Horikita Suzune, who was sitting next to her, raised her head as if she had realized something.

So that's how it is, she thought to herself.

At this moment, she was sitting upright with her feet under her hips, waiting for Hikigaya to exhaust himself. She had said before that she would join in the extra training after the morning class.

So she didn't get up and walk to the center until someone fell to the ground in a mess, gasping for breath and indicating that he wanted to rest.

The protective gear had already been put on and had not been taken off.

Although the surface affected her vision a little, this was also for the purpose of being able to fight freely, so she did not care about this impact.

"Then I'll go back first." Hachiman struggled to get up, took off his underwear, and wiped his sweat-soaked forehead.

It’s so hot! Will June be even hotter?

But when he thought about having air conditioning, he felt sincerely fortunate. Electricity is indeed the cornerstone of human civilization.

"Oh." Uesugi Genshin responded to Hachiman, and then began to train the fox-eyed girl in front of him.

Only those who have systematically learned martial arts can perform these movements in a rigid manner, but this is not a derogatory term, and it is a good thing. Even in kendo, only the correct way of exerting force can ensure the correct direction of the blade.

"Do you want to learn kendo?" Uesugi Genshin asked in the interval of the confrontation. He asked this purely because of the other party's personality and the attributes of an excellent student. To be honest, if Yukino was not so busy, he would be happy to teach her, because working hard enough is the prerequisite for learning a skill.

"Haha..." Horikita Suzune panted heavily but stubbornly maintained the standard posture. Even though her forearms were trembling slightly, she looked at Uesugi Genshin with a serious look, "I want to learn. Will you teach me?"

"Yes, but it may take some time. Kendo cannot be learned in a few weeks or a month."

"No problem." Horikita Suzune smiled without even noticing, "That's exactly what I want."
