Chapter 124: Itto-ryu VS Moonless ryu
"call……"
Natsu and Gray both looked a little tired after finishing the battle. Ever since they were attacked at the Summer Inn, they had been chasing non-stop without stopping and had not had a drop of water for several hours. After a long battle, their strength was about to run out.
Not to mention Gray, who was beaten unilaterally by Juvia in the previous battle; Natsu was even worse off, having endured the torture of transportation twice. The two of them were almost at their limits mentally and physically, and they were only holding on for Erza and Happy before.
"Damn it, I have no strength left..."
"Mr. Gray!" Juvia immediately supported the fallen Gray, her heart was filled with excitement, her face was filled with infatuation, her eyes were filled with love, 'Ah, Mr. Gray is in my arms!!!'
Natsu was still trying hard to go and support, but he was staggering and fell on Lucy in a flash.
"Natsu, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'm going to help Erza!"
Happy stopped him and said, "Natsu, you should take a break first!"
"That's right, Natsu," Lucy looked at Natsu with concern, "We still have Kira, Erza and Disper on our side, we will definitely win!"
…
On the other hand, Disper was strolling in the tower when suddenly, a pretty figure stood in front of him.
Click…click…
The person had long cherry-colored hair, which was tied into two buns on top of her head, one at the waist, and two strands in front. She had an ordinary appearance, but the two red moles under her eyes and the red lipstick on her mouth were very impressive.
There was a strange black collar around her neck, and below it was a white chest-length kimono that looked wide and soft...smooth. On her feet were a pair of tall, thick and heavy round dark red herringbone shoes, which made loud sounds on the ground with her elegant steps.
A red long sword was placed across his chest, and it seemed that his swordsmanship was quite extraordinary. He was none other than Turtledove of the Three Crows, the successor of the Moonless Swordsmanship.
"I am a humble girl, Turtle Dove. Please give me your guidance!"
"Oh, a swordsman? That's rare."
When Kira saw Turtledove for the first time, his eyes lit up immediately. In all these years in Ascalante, he had seen many excellent swordsmen, but most of them used magic at the same time. He had almost never seen anyone like him who only used swordsmanship to fight the enemy.
But this is not surprising. He has no magic power in his body so he cannot use magic, while Ascalante has abundant magic power. Any strong man will use magic.
"I was only here to stop the intruders at the orders of Master Jellal, but I didn't expect to meet you here. I'm so lucky! Kira Disper!"
"Hmm? From what you said, do you know me?"
Turtledove's words made Disper a little confused. Could this be his little fan girl?
When I was walking on Ascalante before, everyone I met thought I was Kira. I didn’t expect to meet a fan of mine now. Hehehe, it’s a little exciting just thinking about it!
But soon, Turtledove's words erased Disper's illusion.
"Eight years ago, my master was defeated by you in one move. He never recovered from the blow and eventually died of depression."
Disper said awkwardly: "Although I am a little sorry to say this, I have no impression of your master at all..."
With his eyebrows lowered, Banjiu recounted the past events in detail: "In order to avenge you and to restore the reputation of the Moonless School, I have been looking for your whereabouts, but I have not been able to find any news for so many years."
"Maybe it's because I went to another continent." Disper thought to himself, "So this person is not my fan!"
"The only clue is your appearance. Unfortunately, the person I ended up looking for was Kira Hopelet from Fairy Tail. After investigation, I found that although he is talented in magic, he is mediocre in the way of the sword. Obviously, you are not the same person."
"So, you are one of the seven people that Gerald mentioned?"
"That's right, if you want to reach the top of the tower, you must defeat me!" Banjiu put his hand on the hilt of the knife, "Let me see what kind of swordsmanship a person who can defeat my master with one move at the age of 12 has!"
Hearing this answer, Disper's eyes gradually became serious: "Although you are a girl, I will not hold back when it comes to swordsmanship and games!"
“I couldn’t ask for more!”
As soon as the words fell, there was silence.
Turtledove held the scabbard in his left hand and lightly pressed the handle with his right hand; Disper also reached out to one of the knives at his waist.
The sound of metal friction was heard between the two men. It was the sound of swords being drawn, but the strange thing was that the two men did not move at all. The swords in their hands were quietly inserted in the scabbards, without being pulled out at all.
The next second, long and thin sword marks appeared on the surrounding walls, ground, and ceiling.
Dispel praised: "Nice swordsmanship."
"It's amazing. You can deal with my attack so easily just by releasing the sword energy casually."
As soon as Turtledove finished speaking, several tiny wounds appeared on his body. All of them were in fatal places, but none of them were deep. It was obvious that Disper had still shown mercy.
"Let's end the test here!"
The first time was a test, and the second attack was a real fight.
The characteristics of the Moonless Style are its extremely fast blade speed and extraordinary control. Not only can it hit the enemy without the opponent's naked eye noticing it, it can also cut off the opponent's nerves without hurting the flesh.
But Disper's swordsmanship was obviously more advanced. He had a high talent for swordsmanship and formed his own style. He could see through any sword moves at a glance and had competed with all kinds of schools. For the same reason, he did not have the shortcoming of being broad but not specialized.
The final result is that you can do everything and are good at everything.
Whether in terms of speed, strength, accuracy, control or coordination, he is far superior to Turtledove.
Banjiu drew his sword and attacked first, moving forward several meters with a step. It was hard to believe that a person wearing such heavy shoes could have such light steps and such superb body movements.
"Moonless Flow, Multiple Sword Flashes."
She swings her sword so fast that it is invisible to the naked eye. In the battle with Erza in the original work, Erza can't even catch the trajectory of her sword swinging, and can only let her cut her armor into pieces again and again.
But it was not so easy facing Disper. He remained motionless, standing quietly in the same place waiting for Banjiu's sword move to arrive.
The sword flashed and cut through the space. Disper's eyes flashed, and his sky-blue eyes caught a bright white light.
The Moonless Style is fast, but what’s even faster is the Sword Drawing Technique!
"One sword style, infinite!"
bite--!
The harsh and sharp sound of metal collision echoed in the narrow corridor, and the sword energy attached to the two swords cut through the walls on the left and right, one in half.
“He actually blocked it?!”
Banjiu shouted in disbelief, it was the first time she saw someone successfully block her swordsmanship.
Disper laughed, feeling somewhat pleased with the duel: "Not bad, come on!"
"No moon flow, Yaksha flashes in the sky."
The dove spun in the air, using the twisting force to drive the sword in his hand, drawing a crescent-shaped slash in the air.
The crescent moon was in the sky. Disper could see it clearly. He turned his wrist and swung his long sword down, also sending out a crescent-shaped slash: "One sword flow, moon cut!"
clang--!
Half-moon arcs crisscrossed in the sky, one of which was cut short by the opponent's blade, and the moonlight came to an abrupt end.
"If your strength is up to standard, try again!"
Seeing that his attack failed again, Banjiu had no choice but to use his strongest move.
"Moonless Flow, Garuda Flame."
The long sword slashed out again, mixed with a large amount of flames, with extremely high temperature and super strong cutting power.
"One sword style, fire refining!"
clang——!
The flames were bound by chains, and the remaining temperature even caused the space to become somewhat distorted, but it still failed to gain the upper hand in the battle.
"Your skills are up to standard, try again!"
Come again? I can’t come!
"For so many years, I was confident that my strength was superior to Master's, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't defeat you!" Banjiu took a few steps back and temporarily stopped attacking, humming unwillingly, "With such a talent for swordsmanship, it's no surprise that you can defeat my master."
Disper nodded: "I will accept your praise without hesitation!"
"That was my strongest move just now, and I have never lost it. It's a pity that I still can't beat you, but it can be regarded as a conclusion to my persistence for so many years."
Her voice sounded somewhat desolate, somewhat lonely, somewhat unwilling, somewhat sad, and somewhat lonely.
"Hey, hey, hey, are you ready to give up?" Disper lectured, "If you don't even trust the sword in your hand, are you still a swordsman? How can you win if you fight with such a mentality! And how can you go far in the swordsmanship?"
