97 26 Huuta is dinged with Ona! (1/2)

-- ”Ocean Senpai . If you see him first, please tell him that everyone is looking for him!　Next time, I'm going to win!

--It'll probably be difficult for you to see the champion again. But I'll tell him just in case. Make that man promise to fight again.

--I'll go first, Ocean. If you change your mind and see him before I do, make sure you punch him in the face at .......

--I'm leaving now. If he comes back to the Colosseum, let me know. How do I do that?　You can just write him a letter. ...... address?　Do you need it?

--It is my desire to cut you into pieces. But more than that, I want to cut that man. Oh, and if I see you first, I'll be glad to meet you then.

--I've taken the liberty of resigning from the Colosseum for the day. Please give my regards to everyone. If you find Mr. Futa, please let me know.

--Because it's you, no one else. Only Oceanic Big Wave would say something like this. You're the only one I can trust.

I'm sure you'll be able to do the same for me.

《Soumi Wave Currents: Hammer Waves (Shore Break)

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

Grasp it with both hands.

Swing down the fastest blade in the Colosseum.

The true value of the Ocean Big Wave is not in its useless movements, which could be considered ”playful”. Rather, it is the unimaginable slowness that comes from that ”play.

Book 322.

A strength that symbolizes Ocean Big Wave, a man who is unrivaled in the number of times he has cut down an opponent's weapon.

”Huh.

And yet, a swing with all his might is stopped halfway down.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I think it's a good idea.

”Are you serious?

I'm not sure what to do.

I'm telling you, it usually breaks!

The point of impact where the blade collides with the blade.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but I think it's a good idea.

”Whoa, whoa, whoa!

”Ha-ha!

Instead of supporting the blade, he flashed his arm as if to shake off the entire Seven Seas Conquest of Ocean.

Instead of supporting him, he flung his arm at Ocean with the Seven Seas Conqueror. The blade was dull and damaged, but still better than broken.

Ocean flies backwards lightly and starts laughing uncontrollably.

”No, no, no, no. That's crazy. How can you be so stupid?

You should be able to.

You should be able to do it.” ”But I have the Seven Seas Conquest!

I'm not sure what to make of that.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing and how you're going to do it.

You're really strong, Futa.

You can find a lot more than just a few of these in the marketplace.

”No, you're strong too. Ocean.

I'm so embarrassed!

At least you're a lot stronger than the last time we fought.

Oh, well, that's just the way it is. I'm a guy who hasn't had a shot in a long time. Besides.

He lifted the Shichahai Conqueror as if it were a stick or something, and while looking at the blade - with its gaping hole in his body - he said.

You're not prepared for this, are you?

”Huh, I see.

Futa couldn't help but laugh.

What a light way to say it.

Even so, his determination was strangely palpable.

Oh, I see. That's how a man with high expectations should be.

”Oh, you have a really nice smile. Should I go get a painter?

No, I'll just go to ....... I don't see the point in me painting.

Really?　Well, you're right, it would be better if you were a little more handsome.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing.

I'm not happy with the compliment right now. I'm a boy.

The speed at which he runs is not as fast as the Rikunotachi.

But the speed at which he swung his sword, the top speed at which he cleaved, was faster than Prim Lancaster's spear.

”You're only happy if you get it yourself, right?

It is a horizontal movement that is subject to greater wind resistance than the vertical movement of thrusting. It is a horizontal movement that is subject to greater wind resistance than the vertical movement of thrusting, yet the blow that exceeds the speed of the opponent's reaction is truly that of a giant wave that bears the name of the fastest.

But ”fastest” is never the best move.

If you're up against a bunch of ordinary people, you're up against the best swordsman in the Colosseum.

With a dull thud, Futa's sword receives the flash.

His stance of being on the receiving end is a fortress that does not falter even when struck with the fastest of blows.

But Ocean Big Wave is unfazed.

His moves are already in play.

A master of mimicry won't go down when he's given 100% of himself.

I know that.

That's why Ocean Big Wave will calmly find a way to win.

He does not pull back the blocked Conquest of the Seven Seas, but rushes to trace the bluntness he received.

He did not try to pull back the blocked Conqueror of the Seven Seas.

The hero's hymn (Sinbad) of the conqueror of the seven seas is a height gained by riding any wave.

He is the fastest at slashing in reverse.

It is a prelude to attack and consolidate without allowing Futa to go on the offensive.

You can't overcome Futa's sword if you attack him with all your might.

That's why you have to be the fastest. Show yourself at 100 percent and use the drop to break your opponent.

Avoid the reverse kesa. Then swing down from the top. If he catches you, turn into a thrust. If he catches you, slash at the surface.

It was as if Richter was using the ”Lander Style Dueling Technique: One Stroke”, a flowing sword technique that other swordsmen would not be able to resist.

Even Lilac, who is trying to beat Richter before he gets hit by that move, is just a check on Ocean Big Wave.

You're not going to sink with this, are you?　He laughs at the trust that seems to be placed in him, and of course he responds.

--You're so strong.

--You're the best, Ocean.

Their gazes crossed for a moment.

Futa had told Lilac before.

Of the eight flashes that roared under the heavens, the first and second swords were exceptional.

Once again, Futa realized that his words had not been a mistake.

It had been a long time since they had crossed swords, but he could see the skill of their opponents. The quality of the training he had accumulated. And the formula for defeating the enemy, not just by brute force.

The number of training is the minimum that all people who hold a weapon, whether they are in the eight-flame class or a minor class below that, must be able to do.

Skill is the skill and experience acquired through that training.

If you have both of these, you will not be defeated by an enemy less than your equal.

The opponent will bow his knees, helpless and uncomprehending, to the tremendous techniques that come from overwhelming skill.

However, when you want to cross blades with an opponent of equal or greater skill, the formula for defeating the enemy, in other words, the training for victory, comes into play.

Both you and your opponent have all your cards in the air. How do you achieve victory as a swordsman?

The answer to the Ocean Big Wave is slow and steady, like a wave.

It's not just about speed. It's not just about power. His unique fighting style allows him to manipulate his own skills to confuse his opponent, while always being prepared for his opponent's best.

He understands his own strengths and has developed a fighting style that utilizes them, and he has continued to refine the blade that is his strength.

In Futa's eyes, he can see the trajectory of his opponent's training.

You're working hard, aren't you?

That's what he told Ocean one day.

It was because he knew that he was not only improving his own skills, but that he was also constantly training to catch his opponent off guard and, above all, to ”pretend” to be bad at it.

His skill as a warrior, which even Lilac could not see through.

This is because Ocean has always trained himself to be undetectable, because he understands his own optimal solutions, and because he has always trained himself towards his ideals.
