EMMM...
Let's put the showing-off aside for now. As always, when faced with incoming bullets, Sogo Doma had countless ways to deal with them. Even if he did nothing and simply let the bullets hit him, it would hurt at most. It might even raise his physical defense LV by another level.
However, raising his defense LV was not necessarily a good thing for him. After all, humans had limits. To surpass those limits, unless he stopped being human...

But Sogo Doma did not want to give up being a perfectly good human just to become a real monster. He couldn't help it—becoming stronger so easily made him feel deeply insecure.
Who knew what the price of raising his defense LV would be? LV3 alone allowed him to tank bullets head-on. By LV5, perhaps even nuclear annihilation would be unable to do anything to him. But that was only LV5. What about the worldly limit of LV6, or the exceptional LV7? Perhaps even LV7 would not be his endpoint...
At that point, could he still call himself human?
Therefore, although he could block bullets with his body, he would not do so. And by the way—this was absolutely not because he was afraid of pain.

Of course, that did not pose much of a challenge to him. With his swordsmanship LV, as long as he had a wooden sword, he could easily intercept every bullet before it reached
