Chapter 9 Section 8

That man named Kojiro Sasaki was a completely different creature than Musashi. Also traveling around the world with a sword, Sasaki Kojiro also defeated countless opponents. Compared with Musashi who was yelling loudly while wandering, Sasaki Kojiro's origin is very mysterious. The legend about Kojiro is also very simple, that is a knife. One blow ends the duel. The words "only one knife" established an unbreakable legend. Onlookers who have seen Kojiro's killing skills cannot describe the mystery of Kojiro's beheading in detail, and even hem and haw about the posture used to draw the knife.

Just ordinary passers-by, that's all, even the disciples of the sword sect who witnessed the master's murder, they all contradict each other about Kojiro's posture and posture when he draws the sword and withdraws the sword. They can only say in shock: "It's just one knife!" They couldn't remember the killing technique, but they were deeply impressed by the long knife worn by Kojiro. The sword was three feet two inches long, longer than any sword used by any samurai, and despite Kojiro's slender stature, the long sword dragged to the ground.He doesn't need to make a move, the appearance of this long knife is enough to leave a lot of room for imagination about strange moves.

There is a saying in the art of war: "One inch is long, one inch is strong; one inch is short, one inch is dangerous." But it is not easy to use such a long knife, it is common sense.In order to limit Kojiro's long sword attack, an opponent once chose a place for the duel in a lush old bamboo forest. He wanted to use the tough and dense bamboo to make Kojiro's long sword an inconvenient weapon, and he couldn't show his proper skills. . This naive strategy was ruthlessly broken in the second the duel started. ...just one knife. Some people say that Sasaki Kojiro is a disciple of the Tomita School, but those who are really related to the Tomita School don't know anything about Kojiro, but they are complacent because of the rumors.If someone asks, he will put on a straight face as if there is something wrong, and say: "This is a matter within the sect, so it is inconvenient to tell others about it."

But no one knows the truth. Kojiro's conversation is extraordinary, like a scholarly family. But there is a cold majesty hidden between the brows, like an eagle. Eagles are not birds of prey that people in the mansion can raise. And Musashi is a tiger, a wounded tiger. Compared with the fierce Miyamoto Musashi, Sasaki Kojiro cut out another piece of red sky in an understatement. Although at different paces, but walking the same path, sooner or later, the two men will decide the winner. There are too many people who want to use Kojiro's hand to kill Musashi, a fierce beast, so that he will not bite people everywhere.

There are also many people who stand on Musashi's side, hoping that Musashi can rely on the characteristics of explosive hard work... that seems to be close to ordinary people, and he can bring down the genius Kojiro who can't even look up. "Then, how about a duel?" Musashi raised his head and gazed at a strangely shaped cloud in the sky. Seven days later, the strange cloud drifted with the wind and drifted to Meinong. Kojiro stood on the top of the mountain, watching the strange cloud enveloping him from a distance. "Really? Let's fight." Kojiro smiled and drew his sword.

Cloud breaks.
