The all-powerful middle schooler

"Get lost, I'm not going to talk about that! I mean, what would happen if we met a swordsman as powerful as Busujima-senpai?"

Nibutani Morika glared at Toumori and continued.

"Who knows? If Busujima-senpai is still at the same level as before, we should be able to win... Right now, it's hard to say."

Rikka Takanashi simulated the sword fight she had seen before in her mind and made a judgment.

The blessing of spiritual power will certainly bring a considerable improvement to people's ability values, but if the original value is too low, then the improvement must be reasonable.

The evil spirits they faced before, apart from being immune to physical attacks, were actually not as agile as the speed shown by Busujima Saeko in that sword fight, and their mastery of combat skills was even worse.

"Alright, alright, the show is about to begin, stop talking."

Beside them, Natsukawa Masuyoshi interrupted their conversation, holding her phone horizontally in front of her eyes and turning on the recording mode.

Such a wonderful battle should of course be recorded and relived over and over again.

Others did not make any noise but just let it go.

After all, this is a rare guiding material!

This will help them to study secretly.

……

After a few seconds of confrontation.

Busujima Saeko took the initiative to attack, without any confusion in her eyes. She stepped over the flooded ground, holding the knife in both hands, and slashed forward.

"Jianyi."

There was no unnecessary probing, and the first sword move he used was the 'Thirteen Deadly Swords'.

It seemed like an ordinary move, but in fact it was as fierce as a sword to the throat, which complemented the darkness hidden deep in the girl's heart. It was precisely because the two were so well matched that her swordsmanship level improved a lot during this period of time.

In the darkness, a flash of light suddenly bloomed, as if to cut off the rain curtain in front of the eyes.

Facing the female swordsman coming under the moonlight, the man who stood firmly in place was calm and unhurried. He responded casually, holding the umbrella handle with one hand to block the deadly sword that was slashing at him diagonally.

"what?"

Busujima Saeko was not surprised that the man in front of her could see through her sword style. After all, this sword technique was originally taught to her by the other party, not to mention that the other party was at the level of a god in swordsmanship.

What she didn't expect was that after coming into contact with the sharp knife, the umbrella didn't seem to be damaged at all.

"Could it be that my power is being drained away by the exquisite power control... No, it is absolutely impossible! No matter how exquisitely the power is controlled, it still abides by the laws of physics!"

Such a thought flashed through her mind.

The next second, she switched sword styles, flicked her wrist, and stabbed towards the opponent's chest at a strange angle.

Another fatal move!

Since it is called "Death", naturally every move is designed to take lives.

"Not enough, not enough!"

"Sister Busujima, your progress is indeed encouraging, but it's not enough to satisfy me. It's obvious that you haven't put your whole heart into it..."

"Release it! Release the real you!"

Izumi Hanezegawa flicked his hand casually, like the stirring of running water, turning the move into an invisible form, and spoke loudly between the continuous blocks.

Both sides missed each other.

Busujima Saeko knew in her heart that after learning the 'Thirteen Deadly Swords', her other side had become one with the sword.

In other words, she can only unleash the true power of this swordsmanship when she releases her true nature without concealment!

"Sir, I'm going to get on."

It was like the cold sound of a cold wind suddenly ringing in the wind and rain.

Turning around again, the expression in the girl's eyes and eyebrows was as if a ghost had descended.

How could 33 people possibly create something like sword energy?

Blood dyed everything red.

The world before my eyes changed color in an instant.

Busujima Saeko used the mental skills from the 'Thirteen Deadly Swords' to fully release her latent murderous intent. Suddenly, the blood surged up and instantly filled her eyes. The bloodshot in the whites of her eyes turned red due to the congestion. The ferocity emanating from her body was completely different from before.

This transformation-like state shocked the people watching the game.

"There's actually a second stage? This Busujima-senpai doesn't look like an ordinary person, death!"

"Compared to before, Busujima-senpai's strength has become much stronger, even exceeding my expectations."

"Even just now, it was difficult to capture her movements with the spiritual eyes open. If she can be even stronger..."

"It's nothing special, it's just that we have been practicing for too short a time. The gap has narrowed a lot compared to before, and she must have received help from the Minister."

Seeing the gap between them, the girls were all surprised, but no one was discouraged. Instead, they were full of fighting spirit.

"Very good, then let me be amazed!"

Izumi Hanegawa also witnessed the other person's transformation, and his lips curled up with a look of joy at seeing a prey.

The seeds that were planted at the beginning have finally begun to bloom.

However, it is not easy to bear abundant fruits.

Busujima Saeko raised her sword and pointed it to the sky. At this moment, she discarded all unnecessary thoughts, focused her eyes on one point, and was purely focused. The sword in her hand was the only thing she could entrust.

"Sword Five."

She murmured softly and rushed towards the figure that was still clearly visible in the rainy night.

The girl turned her wrist and the sword flower danced like a blooming blood-red rose.

Among the seemingly complicated sword moves, only one sword is the real killing move.

The sinister murderous intent is hidden in the beautiful sword style.

A very beautiful sword, and a very beautiful person.

Izumi Hanegawa closed and opened his eyes, his deep blue eyes seeing everything clearly.

He did not choose to overpower the opponent with force, but instead moved the tip of his umbrella forward a little, just in time to intercept the sword move when it was about to change.

"clatter."

This is a brilliant move.

It is enough to shock any master swordsman in the world.

But the female swordsman in front of him was not among them.

Busujima Saeko stared intently with a cold expression, as if she had anticipated such a change. The moment the tip of the umbrella touched the sword, she immediately used the force to step back. After her feet landed on the ground, she twisted her body and turned around with the sword.

The smooth and sharp sword blade cut through the rain curtain, still heading towards the vital part of the human body, the neck.

"it is good."

Izumi Hanegawa praised without moving his body at all. The vertical umbrella body had been placed in front of his neck without him knowing when.

When he was dealing with the sword, he also did not use force to overwhelm his opponent, but simply displayed a higher level of swordsmanship.

In this situation, Busujima Saeko has already reached the realm of 'oneness of man and sword', and it has become very advanced.

He understood that it was time to demonstrate a higher level.

This is the only way to guide the girl in the direction of progress.

"Sword Nine."

There was no time to lose. Busujima Saeko, without being repelled, naturally continued her attack immediately, grasping the hilt of the sword with both hands and raising it high.

Nine is the extreme. The ninth sword among the Thirteen Deadly Swords is a killing move of power, which is an extremely rare chopping style.

She had already tried this trick and it was able to split a rock. If it were to hit an ordinary person, it would most likely split it in half.

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a noise!

A bolt of thunder descended in the distance, illuminating the darkness for a moment. At this moment, the purple-haired beauty was like an executioner who was carrying out an execution, raising her knife and chopping down mercilessly.

Izumi Hanegawa simply handed over the umbrella. The whole action looked really ordinary, and the force was not overwhelming, giving people the illusion of an egg hitting a rock.

However, in the next moment, Busujima Saeko's face changed drastically, and she inexplicably felt a chill as if a sword was placed on her neck, rushing straight to her head. Her mind, which had been immersed in murderous intent, was stimulated and woke up.

She immediately retreated ten meters away, lowered her head to look at her right hand holding the sword, it seemed no different from before.

Obviously, she felt like her hand was about to be cut off!

"To pursue the origin of the sword and to infuse it with one's own will is called... sword will!"

Izumi Hanegawa put his right hand behind him, with his umbrella draped over his back like a sword, and slowly moved forward while speaking leisurely.

"Sword...intention?"

Busujima Saeko muttered to herself, with a confused look in her eyes.

Is this giving the sword a will of its own?

This mysterious state is obviously a level higher than the 'unity of man and sword', so much so that her understanding was distorted.

“You should come and experience it yourself.”

Izumi Hanegawa smiled.

Memories engraved on the body often carry more weight than words.

Moreover, when the human body is attacked, it usually produces antibodies to defend itself, and the same is true for the understanding of sword intent.

"Sword Eleven!"

Busujima Saeko has regained her composure. Although she is still in a furious state, her eyes are more human and emotional than before.

She stepped on the sword, charging like a cheetah, and slashed sideways, leaving a dazzling streak in the night.

"Only when you are at your best with love can you be at your best with the sword...If you want to pursue the sword's will, you must find the reason for swinging the sword."

Izumi Hanegawa accepted the attack and then hit it back, while calmly explaining the methods and experiences of comprehending the sword's intent.

Not only Busujima Saeko in the arena, but the girls watching nearby were also taking note of it.

Although they have no interest in becoming swordsmen, if they encounter such an opponent in the future, they will have a basic understanding in advance.

"Sword Twelve!"

Busujima Saeko continued to strike with the sword without stopping.

The sword collided with the umbrella again.

The same illusion of being cut in half came over her mind again, leaving her dazed and stunned.

This made her realize that if she met a swordsman who had mastered the sword's meaning, it would be difficult for her to resist.

It can be said that they are not on the same level at all!

"I understand. It's not the sword that generates the will, but the person holding the sword needs to carry out his own will..."

After several attempts, there was a hint of understanding in her eyes.

If the state of unity between man and sword is to make the sword in hand 'come alive' and completely become an extension of one's own hands and feet, then 'sword intent' is to integrate one's own will into the transformation and stimulate a magical power.

"This is incredible...! Can the way of the sword reach such a level? Is this really something that humans can do?"

After thinking it through, she still couldn't believe it.

This had a subversive effect on her outlook on life.

However, the next scene changed her perception of the world even more.

"You've almost reached your limit. It's time to end this mentoring battle."

Izumi Hanegawa had already figured out her physical strength during the battle, so she was able to make a judgment.
