As soon as Chiba Masawa finished speaking!
The surface of the sea in the distance was split open by a saber gleam that was over ten feet long. Countless waves were sent flying, and a black figure stepped on the broken waves and charged out of the white fog.
It was a middle-aged man in a black samurai suit!
Whoosh!
The middle-aged man landed next to Chiba Masawa and looked at Miyamoto Take expressionlessly. The samurai sword in his hand automatically returned to its sheath as if it was psychic.
"Yagyu Takeken!"
"In order to deal with us, you even invited someone from the Yagyu family!"
Chiba Yoshiko and Miyamoto Take's expressions changed at the same time!
They turned to look at the middle-aged man with respect!
Yagyu Takeken!
He was from the Yagyu family of Japan!
It was an extremely ancient family. Their status in Japan was even more ancient and noble than the Chiba family!
This was because the Yagyu family had produced three Sword Saints in the past. Throughout the history of Japan's swordsmanship, there had only been a total of six Sword Saints.
The first was Tsukasahara Buchuan. He was a true Sword Saint who was born during Japan's Warring States period. He created his own Tachi and was known to be undefeated.
The second was his disciple, Uizumi Shingang!
Compared to his master, Uizumi Shingang was even more outstanding. At a young age, he created the Shinin Sect of swordsmanship and was given the title of 'Number One in the World' by the shogunate!
The third was Yagyu Muneo!
He was the first Sword Saint of the Yagyu family. He had once lost to Uizumi Shingang's disciple, Hida Toyogoro. Hence, he joined Shingang's sect. Not long after, he comprehended the secret of 'swordless takedown' and was given the title of Shinin Sect's Yin Ke.
Yagyu Muneo had extraordinary talent. He comprehended a new swordsmanship sect in the Shinin Sect. In order to distinguish it from the Shinin Sect, he called it the Yagyu Shinin Sect!
The fourth was Miyamoto Musashi!
Miyamoto Musashi was also born during the Edo period of Japan's Warring States period. At a young age, he created his own 'Yuanming Ryū'. Rumor had it that he defeated the Shindang Sect's Arima Hideobushi in his first duel at the age of 13. At the age of 16, he defeated Akiyama, who was known for being 'tough'. At the age of 21, Miyamoto Musashi went to Kyoto and defeated Japan's current swordsman.
And the fifth place was Yagyu Jubei!
Compared to the previous few, Yagyu Jubei could be said to be the strongest swordsman in the history of Japan. He had created the Killing God Single Slash and the Snow of the World. Yagyu Jubei, along with his grandfather Yagyu Shikousai Zong Yen and his father Yagyu Danshou Zong Ju, were collectively known as the Yagyu Santengu! “
The sixth was Yagyu Aida!
He was the only Sword Saint in Japan. This person created the Sword Heart, Sword Soul, and Sword Resolve. He was also the only person in Japan who had comprehended the Sword Heart, Sword Soul, and Sword Resolve!
There were a total of six Sword Saints in Japan's history, and the Yagyu family had three of them. From this, it could be seen that this ancient family's status and foundation in Japan were enough to make countless people look up to them!
Therefore, after seeing Yagyuu Takeken appear!
Chiba Yoshiko and Miyamoto Take's expressions changed greatly!
Although Yagyu Takeken was not a Sword Saint, he was the most outstanding descendant of the Yagyu family. He had also received guidance from the Sword Saint Yagyu Aida and was known as the person closest to becoming a Sword Saint in Japan.
Even Miyamoto Take would be overshadowed by him!
"Miyamoto Take, your ancestor, Miyamoto Musashi, is known as a Sword Saint. He can be considered to have a long history of learning. I didn't expect you to be willing to be someone else's lackey!"
Yagyu Takeken stood with his saber in hand and said in disappointment, "Your actions have insulted the dignity of the Japanese swordsmanship. Today, I'll clean up the sect on behalf of the Japanese!"
"Ms. Chiba!
Looks like the two of us will have to die here today! "
Miyamoto Take sighed softly. His gaze swept past Chiba Masawa and the dozen or so ninjas from the Chiba family.
He did not expect the Chiba family to make such a big fuss in order to capture them. Just the dozen or so heaven-class ninjas from the Chiba family were not something he could deal with, let alone Yagyu Takeken!
Under such a heavy encirclement, unless he broke through to the Sword Saint stage, he would not be able to resist at all. However, it was not that easy to break through to the Sword Saint stage!
Chiba Yoshiko's face was filled with despair when she heard that!
At this point, not to mention the fact that Ye Chen had yet to appear, even if he did, the ninjas from the Chiba family would have to retreat when facing Yagyu Takeken. How could they save her?
"My dear sister, do you know what despair is now?"
Chiba Masawa laughed out loud and said, "Go, follow my family obediently. Don't worry, I won't kill you. And you, Master Miyamoto, if you're willing to submit to my Chiba family, I might spare your life!"
"Hahahaha!"
Miyamoto Take suddenly laughed out loud, "Chiba Masawa, not to mention you, even that old thing Chiba Izumi wouldn't dare to say that in front of me!
Your Chiba family has only a history of over a hundred years. The reason why you rose to power is because of the Hidemoto clan. However, my Miyamoto family has more than 500 years of history. When my ancestor, Miyamoto Musashi, ruled Japan, your Chiba family was just a lowly commoner!
"So you're asking for death?" Chiba Masawa sneered.
"What's there to fear about life? What's there to enjoy about death?"
Miyamoto Take took a deep breath in, "For a qualified swordsman, from the moment he leaves the house with his sword, he no longer cares about life and death, but conquering the world!"
At this point, he looked at Yagyu Takeken, "Draw your sword, Yagyu Takeken. Everyone ranks my ancestor, Miyamoto Musashi, behind the three Sword Saints of your Yagyu family. Everyone says that my Miyamoto family's iaijutsu can't compare to your Yagyu family's Asura Slash!
"I'd like to see it today!
"Alright, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Yagyu Takeken's expression froze slightly. Then, he bowed to Miyamoto Take heavily. This was the most formal etiquette between swordsmen!
At the next moment!
Both of them drew their swords at the same time!
Waves surged, cold gleams swept through the sky, and the clouds dispersed!
Miyamoto Take took a few steps back, and his hand that was holding the sword trembled slightly. If one took a closer look, they would notice traces of blood slowly dripping down the hilt of the sword to the deck. It was a shocking sight!
"You've lost!"
Yagyu Takeken slowly sheathed his sword!
This was the case when experts exchanged blows. There was no great battle, and there was no sword and saber light. There was only the most powerful attack that they could unleash.
"Yes, I've lost!"
Miyamoto Take slowly closed his eyes, his expression bitter. Then, he slowly raised his hand. The katana in his hand was extremely dazzling, and the tip of the katana was pointed at his abdomen!
"No … No, Master Miyamoto!"
Chiba Yoshiko burst into tears!
It was rare for swordsmen to fight to the death on the spot. However, the outcome was very cruel. That was because the loser had to commit suicide to defend the dignity of swordsmanship!
At this moment, there was a sudden clap of thunder in the sky, causing the entire sea to tremble a few times.
At the next moment!
Countless solidified white mist swept over from afar. The white mist filled the sky, as if the sea had become boiling. At the same time, waves of sea waves surged over recklessly.
Chiba Masawa was shocked. "What's happening?"
"There's someone in the distance!"
Yagyu Takeken stared at the end of the sea.
Everyone followed his gaze and looked over.
They only saw a thin figure wrapped in a monstrous wave surging towards them ….
