Mifune looked down, waiting for all Sword Tester to receive their number plates, and then he announced directly, "The knife test begins."
There were a lot of people participating in this competition. Nearly two hundred blacksmiths participated in the competition. Sword Tester was certainly the same number. The square was big enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people for fighting. Without the use of ninjutsu, the square would not be destroyed on a large scale.
Mifune had just announced the start, and most of the Sword Tester started fighting. They immediately started to attack the people next to them. The sound of metal collisions was heard one after another. This kind of brawl is a test for the knife. You can imagine that there are enemies in front, back and left, and the knife needs to keep colliding with each other. Even if the knife is not cut off, the gap is inevitable, and the quality of the knife will be immediately distinguished. It must be said that this is a very effective method.
Sasuke jumped back immediately and came directly to the edge of the square. As he retreated, he was about to encounter the armored warriors behind him. His arrival made the armored warriors behind him nervous, but they were not afraid, because Sword Tester had no need to attack them. If he did, he would immediately lose his qualifications and would be arrested by Land of Iron. Sasuke is standing here to observe the battle in the entire square from a larger perspective. All Sword Tester are fighting there. They rely on their own strength and speed to compete. This is the most chaotic time, and many people use their speed the most. Especially the speed of swinging the sword. After the two sides' knives collide, they start to fight for strength. It seems completely unorganized, but this is the most suitable way. After all, there are too many things to pay attention to when there are many people. The profession of samurai is more often a one-on-one duel. It is only at this time that sword skills appear.
Sasuke looked at the entire square like a bystander. Because of his rapid retreat, no one around him had time to attack him. However, after losing Sasuke's figure, they immediately fought together, so for the time being, Sasuke was very calm here, and no one came to attack him.
The confusion lasted for a long time, and gradually some people began to be eliminated. First of all, some people's swords were broken. There was no need for the referee to announce at this time, and they would leave immediately. If the people inside hit Red Eye, it doesn't matter whether you have a knife or not, so they must leave as quickly as possible, otherwise they will have no weapons if they are attacked.
Sasuke's behavior can be said to be avoiding a fight, but the rules do not require that the fight must start immediately, so it is not considered a foul. Many ninjas who tried their swords immediately chose to avoid fighting. This was due to their fighting experience. However, samurai were different. They thought it was shameful to avoid fighting. The samurai had the most fun at the beginning. Sasuke carefully observed everyone's movements, Tomoe in his eyes kept turning, it was his first time to copy on such a large scale.
The "ding-dong-ding-dong" clang of knives was heard, and screams were heard from time to time. Someone was injured or died. The number of people soon began to decrease. Sword Tester, which had less than two hundred people, had been reduced by almost half. After the initial chaos, order became orderly. Those who passed the first round all had good strength. And Sasuke was also being targeted at this time. After all, several people were approaching him while slapping him. When someone among them was eliminated, someone naturally noticed Sasuke. At the same time, Sasuke looked like He was not very old, probably not an adult yet. Although there was Konoha and Forehead Protector on his neck, there was only one Genin at most, so a Sword Tester rushed over immediately.
The opponent raised the sword with both hands and slashed it down. Sasuke did not draw the sword, but gently dodged it. It didn't matter if he dodged, but behind him was the armored warrior. If the opponent couldn't hold back, then he would attack the armored warrior. The strength of the man who rushed up was really average. He really didn't stop and slashed directly. Unfortunately, he was caught by the armored warrior behind Sasuke and beat him severely, and then he was eliminated. Sasuke has no idea of joining the war now. The remaining people have begun to use sword skills. What can they do if they don't observe carefully at this time? This is absolutely not possible, so Sasuke took a tricky approach and eliminated one person.
The warrior behind him looked at Sasuke's back and wanted to give him a knife. What do you mean by getting out of the way and letting me out? Fortunately, the strength of the guy just now was average, otherwise he would have explained it here. However, Sasuke did not commit a foul. He had no choice but to kill Sasuke with his eyes.
A fight began in the square. Some people sheathed their swords and made Drawing Sword Technique movements. This Sasuke is known to everyone. It is found in many anime and is intended to kill with one strike. Some people will swing their knives several times at an extremely fast speed. If they have poor eyesight, they will be directly confused by the opponent, and at the same time, their movement will be blocked by the opponent. There are also people who use chopping, chopping, teasing, stabbing and other movements continuously. The sword skills are continuous. Each movement will not be exhausted, and there will be room for changing the moves.
Various sword skills were used, and Sasuke felt that he had made a profit. With so many sword skills, there must be one that suits him, right? At this time, some ninjas were also involved in the battle. Most of them were forced into the battle circle. They should be some experienced Genin or ordinary Chunin, otherwise they would not be easily forced into the battle circle.
The number of people is still decreasing, because many sword skills can kill with one blow, and the casualties have begun to increase. At the same time, the damage of the knives has become more severe. After all, they are attacking with all their strength, and the collision has become more intense. Some people just gave up the competition because there were too many gaps on the knives. After all, if they stayed and won, the knives were destroyed, so there was no need to continue.
Just as Sasuke was observing carefully, there was a Kumogakure ninja on his left quietly approaching him along the edge. The distance between the two was getting closer and closer. When the distance reached five meters, this The ninja named Kumogakure launched directly, kicked the ground hard with his legs, and flew towards Sasuke like a cannonball. At the same time, he held the knife in both hands and stretched forward, rushing towards Sasuke's waist. Because they were on the edge of the square, some of the spectators were already exclaiming, this is not a knife test, this is a killing rhythm!
Just when he was about to stab Sasuke, Sasuke suddenly moved. He didn't know why he took a step forward. This ninja passed directly from behind Sasuke, directly from When Sasuke's left side turned to his right, he squatted down and hurriedly handed the knife to his left hand, holding the handle of the knife with his backhand. Then he turned around and slashed the knife towards Sasuke's leg. The position he aimed at was where Sasuke stood after taking a step forward.
