Chapter 861: Swordsman Showdown, Ye Cheng VS Sasaki Kojiro!

"For some special reasons, I know your real name and your special skills.

This seems to be unfair to you in this sword duel, so I will introduce myself.

My name is Ye Shen Ye Cheng. Although I am not specialized in swordsmanship, I can barely be considered a swordsman.

Because I know your ability and swordsmanship, in order not to take advantage of you, I will not use abilities other than swordsmanship in this duel."

As an Assassin, Sasaki Kojiro did not choose to sneak attack the first time he saw him, but adhered to his identity as a swordsman and took the initiative to greet Ye Cheng.

In order to respond to the other party's respect, Ye Cheng naturally would not shamelessly take advantage of the other party's information gap.

After hearing Ye Cheng's words, Sasaki Kojiro was also stunned for a moment, and then showed respect and took an offensive posture.

"Ding——————!"

After a brief exchange, the two did not say anything more, but at the moment when a leaf fell to the ground, the figures of the two disappeared as if in an instant, and left the original place at the same time.

When their figures reappeared, the long swords in their hands had already collided with each other in mid-air, and a large number of sparks were splashed.

"Ya Shen Liu Three Styles·Crazy Butterfly!"

After the two separated with one blow, Ye Cheng took the lead in launching a fierce attack. The long sword in his hand seemed to have turned into a residual shadow at this moment, leaving a stream of light in the dark mid-air.

Facing Ye Cheng's ultra-high-speed continuous slashes, Sasaki Kojiro's defense method was to dodge and attack continuously.

That's right, because of the long sword "Monogankan" in his hand and the special nature of Kojiro's own swordsmanship, his fighting method did not have defense, but only blindly attack.

The so-called offense is the best defense. The "Monogankan" with a blade of 1.5 meters long, based on the principle that an inch longer is an inch stronger, not only resolved all the attacks of Ye Cheng's attack, but also had the spare power to attack Ye Cheng at a tricky angle.

In historical facts, the name of the long sword "Mono Kankan" used by Sasaki Kojiro is not an official inscription, but rather a more derogatory meaning of "too long to be used as a sword".

However, only those who are also good at swordsmanship know that the longer the long sword is, the better it is. If the blade is too long, it is easy to break, and if you want to wield such a long sword skillfully, you need to have very high swordsmanship.

"Ya Shenliu One Style·Broken Waterfall!"

Compared with the previous multiple continuous high-speed slashes "Kuang Die", the "Broken Waterfall" used by Ye Cheng now is a powerful downward attack.

"Mono Kankan" itself is the most suitable long sword for Sasaki Kojiro, and only he can exert the maximum power of this sword. However, no matter how Sasaki Kojiro plays to his strengths and avoids his weaknesses, the blade is too long and the load-bearing capacity is weak, which is something Kojiro cannot avoid.

So if you want to break the situation, just attack with a powerful slash!

Facing the oncoming slash, Sasaki Kojiro has only two ways to deal with it, either use the "Monogankan" to block it hard, or choose to dodge.

If you choose to dodge, then in this kind of duel between sword masters, too much dodging will inevitably reveal flaws.

And even if there is only a slight flaw, it is enough to determine the winner in a duel of this level.

If Sasaki Kojiro uses the "Monogankan" to block it hard, then with the slender and fragile blade of the Monogankan, even if it is a treasure, facing Ye Cheng's powerful slashing moves, how many times can it withstand it?

Looking at the crescent slash flying towards him vertically, as a sword master, Sasaki Kojiro also saw through Ye Cheng's intention at a glance, and chose to retreat for the first time.

After several consecutive jumps back and distanced himself from Ye Cheng, looking at the sword energy slashing shot towards him, Sasaki Kojiro's eyes were instantly sharp.

The A-level "Mind's Eye" skill gives Sasaki Kojiro a sixth sense far beyond that of ordinary people.

Unlike the crisis avoidance based on "predictions supported by experience" possessed by the Heroic Spirit Emiya, Sasaki Kojiro's "Mind's Eye" is a danger prediction ability based on natural talent.

As early as the moment when Ye Cheng slashed with sword energy, Sasaki Kojiro had already predicted the danger, and the way he chose to deal with it was also unexpected by Ye Cheng.

With the blessing of another inherent skill "Transparency", Sasaki Kojiro, whose spiritual realm has reached the state of "clear mirror and still water", has no psychological fluctuations even when the sword energy is approaching. Instead, he uses his superb swordsmanship and cleverness to wave the pole in his hand, changing the attack trajectory of Ye Cheng's sword energy slash!

The crescent blade, whose trajectory was changed by clever power, fell into the air, and directly cut the stone steps leading to the mountain of Liudong Temple in half with an invincible attitude, and kept covering his face, and even the gate of Liudong Temple was cut in half by this blow, and collapsed.

Ye Cheng could not have imagined that Sasaki Kojiro could use this method to resolve his attack, but what he did not expect was that Sasaki Kojiro would actually let the sword energy that changed its trajectory slash towards the gate!

If Ye Cheng remembered correctly, Sasaki Kojiro was summoned by Medea in violation of regulations, and the medium for summoning him was the gate of Liudong Temple.

This also caused Sasaki Kojiro to be bound by the gate and unable to leave here, and could only act as a gatekeeper, so he was nicknamed the gatekeeper of Liudong Temple.

As a summoning medium, if the gate of Liudong Temple was destroyed, then Sasaki Kojiro would undoubtedly follow suit.

But he just chose to transfer the slash to the mountain gate. Is he planning to commit suicide?

Ye Cheng originally thought so, but soon he was shocked again, because the mountain gate of Ryudo Temple had become a pile of rubble and ruins, but now Sasaki Kojiro in front of him, let alone leaving the stage, was not even affected at all!

What the hell is this! Why is this Holy Grail Five Wars so different from the Five Wars I know!

Heroic Spirit Emiya: (＿;) I also want to know why, as a future Heroic Spirit, knowing the plot is the biggest golden finger, but now the plot is a mess!

"My feeling before was indeed correct. You are indeed a peerless swordsman with outstanding strength.

Such an amazing sword energy slash, I am afraid that there are few people in the world who can reach it.

Besides, you are still a human being at present. I can't even imagine how strong you will be once you become a heroic spirit.

Whether it is physical ability or overall strength, I admit that I am not your opponent, but I still have a sword skill in this life, and I hope you can appreciate it."

In fact, during the battle, Sasaki Kojiro discovered that compared with himself, Ye Cheng's strength was far from being exerted.

Not only did the opponent not use means other than swordsmanship as he said, but he even deliberately suppressed his physical ability.

In addition to agility, Sasaki Kojiro knew that he was not as good as the opponent in terms of strength, endurance and other aspects, but the opponent suppressed his advantages and compared himself with swordsmanship.
