Two system sounds rang in my mind one after another.
This is the experience point that Ogata gained after defeating the two guys guarding the gate just now.
"Hello, I want to settle accounts with Toyama Renjiro, please let me in" - Even if Ogata said this in a very polite tone, the two guys guarding the gate would definitely not let Ogata in.
Therefore, in order to enter the Ishikawa Sword Hall smoothly, Ogata just drew his sword and attacked the two people.
Ogata's original intention was just to get in, and he didn't want to do anything to the two guys guarding the gate.
So after drawing the sword, Ogata deliberately turned the sword in his hand half a circle and only used the back of the sword to attack.
However, Ogata didn't know whether the two gatekeepers in front of him participated in today's attack on Sakakibara Kengakuen and Ryuya.
If these two guys were also involved in the attack on Sakakibara Kengakuen and Ryuya, it would be necessary to specifically target them.
With the idea of "not letting the person go even if he was killed by mistake", Ogata used the back of the knife, and the force was not light at all.
It was precisely because Ogata showed no mercy that the two gatekeepers were still lying on the ground groaning in pain.
He drew his sword unexpectedly and used "Dragon Tail" to kill one of them. Then he used "Water Fall" to completely deprive the other of his fighting power.
However, the man who was hit by Ogata's "Water Fall" was still quite tenacious.
Even after being hit by Ogata, he still rushed towards Ogata with a roar.
Ogata had no choice but to knee the guy, who couldn't even walk steadily, in the stomach.
Then he grabbed the guy's head and used him as a battering ram, throwing him towards the door of Ishikawa Sword Hall.
This guy, who had tragically become a "battering ram", directly broke open the door of Ishikawa Sword Hall.
That's why the two guys guarding the gate, one was lying at Ogata's feet, while the other was lying on the white sand road behind the gate.
After Ogata used that guy 's body to break open the door of Ishikawa Sword Hall, Ogata heard noisy footsteps coming from inside the sword hall.
Then, an old man led a group of young people of different ages and appeared in front of Ogata.
Ogata immediately recognized the old man as the current owner of Ishikawa Sword Hall - Ishikawa Heima.
"Are you Ogata Noriyoshi? I wonder why you have come to disturb my mansion at this hour?"
"What's the matter?" Ogata chuckled as if he had heard a very funny joke. "Didn't you people from Ishikawa Sword Hall want to look for me? So I came here."
"Ogata Yisei! We didn't find you, but you came to us on your own!"
Ogata looked in the direction of the voice.
The person who spoke was also someone Ogata knew.
It was that Itagaki.
When he saw Itagaki, a shadow of anger appeared on Ogata's face, which had originally been expressionless.
"Don't be so arrogant!" Itagaki shouted again, "We will definitely teach you a lesson in the future!"
"No need to wait until later, you can teach me a lesson now."
As soon as Itagaki finished speaking , Obe immediately responded directly.
"I don't know why you suddenly want to find me, but - I'll wait until I beat you all up, and then I'll slowly listen to your explanation of why you want to find me."
"Lord Ishikawa Heima!"
Ogata turned his head and looked at the soldiers.
"I want to challenge all the disciples of your Ishikawa Sword Hall!"
"If I lose, you can do whatever you want to me."
"If I win, you don't need to do anything for me. Just let me scratch a sword mark on the plaque next to your gate."
Be it the soldiers or disciples like Itagaki, after hearing what Ogata said, all of them showed shock on their faces.
The plaque that Ogata was referring to was naturally the heavy wooden plaque with the four Chinese characters "Ishikawa Dojo" written on it hanging next to the gate of their sword hall.
If Ogata left a sword mark on the plaque of the sword hall, it would be a huge shame for the masters and disciples of Ishikawa Sword Hall.
The soldier was the first to frown and shout:
"Ogata-kun! Please calm down! Everything that happened today was an accident!"
Ogata suddenly came to challenge their sword hall - even if Ishikawa Heima used his butt to think, he could figure out why.
"As long as we sit down and have a good talk, we will be able to handle today's accident perfectly!"
"Accident? Is it an accident? This kind of thing, anything goes !" Ogata replied to Bingma in a much louder voice than Bingma, "I only know that you people from Ishikawa Sword Hall injured my fellow apprentices and friends!"
"You've soiled clothes that are very important to my friend!"
"After I defeat all the disciples in your sword hall, we will sit together and slowly discuss how to end today's 'accident'!"
"Ogata Issei!" After a brief moment of shock, Itagaki shouted at Ogata Issei, "Are you crazy? You actually want to challenge all of us?"
"What?" Ogata said calmly, "Are you afraid to accept my challenge?"
"What?!" Veins began to bulge on Itagaki's forehead.
Not only Itagaki, but all the other disciples, including Toyama, had changed expressions.
“Arrogant!”
"Arrogant guy!"
"Engage in battle! Kill this arrogant guy!"
"We were just shocked by your stupid remarks! Do you think we are afraid of you?!"
"Master! Let's accept the challenge from this arrogant guy! If we don't accept the challenge, our Ishikawa Sword Gym will be looked down upon!"
…
Some of the disciples of Ishikawa Sword Hall were filled with righteous indignation, while others were furious.
Ogata only felt that the indignant shouts of the Ishikawa Sword Hall disciples were just noise.
"Do you dare to accept the fight?" Impatience began to appear on Ogata's face.
Ogata's words were like a handful of oil poured into a fire.
Some people's faces had turned red with anger.
"...Master." A sturdy disciple suppressed his inner anger and turned his head to look at Ishikawa Heima beside him. "Since this arrogant guy who doesn't know how to live or die comes here to seek death, let's grant his wish!"
Bingma looked at Ogata with a complicated expression.
"...Ogata-kun." Bingma said in a serious tone, "Let me ask you - what if you die while challenging all the disciples of my sword hall?"
As soon as Bingma finished speaking, Xu Fang said without thinking.
"If I die, just wrap me up in a straw mat and throw me out on the street."
"My fellow disciples will help me collect the body."
"...I understand." Ishikawa Heima sighed, "Ogata-kun, let's go to the dojo..."
