Chapter 8 (1/2)

We enter the hole and caht can be seen

”Froeon”

”Is that so? Everyone prepare”

When one of the SDF says so, everyone took out weapons

One of the sword and the only woinata

Then, I openedattention took out his weapon

That person noticed that

”Hmm? What happened?”

”Captain, perhaps that is the cause?”

”This?”

The person called captain raised his weapon

”Yeah yeah, that's it Usually, someone won't use such weapon”

”Say what There is no better weapon than this”

”I guess so, but it won't be It's not a weapon but a tool”

What the captain had was a scoop

Yeah, that scoop is said to be a versatile weapon

”Here, take a look This person is amazed, isn't it?”

And, pointed to me

”No-no, I'm not amazed”

”Eh? But, you were surprised”

”I was more impressed than surprised”

”Impressed?”

”Yeah, it's i a scoop as a weapon”

”E~to, where is that impressive?”

”Eh!? You, don't you know the versatility of the scoop though you are of SDF!?”

That person went doith ry look

”During the Second World War, it was a faood to cut, to stab, to strike, to guard, the best weapon all-purpose, isn't it the scoop?!!”

That said, the captain grabbed my shoulder

”You, know that”

The captain and I nodded

”Uwa~, there was a person similar to captain here”

Saying so, I further say to the SDF

”Also, overseas, the scoop is normally used as a weapon?”

”E!, LIE!?”

”It's true The reason is the convenience of the scoop As I said earlier, you can cut ad pierce and hit too, also can protect you like a shi+eld, it see else”

”Cost?”

”Yes, that's right For example that katana you have How much was it?”

”Let me se~e, I think it was about 100 thousand”

”That sword?”

”It was around 70, 80 thousand”

”It's about that Cheap weapons cost tens of thousands of yen If they are expensive, exceed the hundreds of thousands Howe~ver, scoops are thousands of yen at best, you can buy an expensive one at 10 thousand yen at ets broke it's easy to replace And yet it's excellent as a weapon There is no reason not to use this”

”Oo~, I see”

”For that reason, the scoop is often used abroad”

”Eeh~, is there a proper reason for being used?”

”Of course The scoop won't be chosen as a weapon without reason Me too, I would have chosen the scoop, if I hadn't had this hatchet”

I would like to use swords or katanas as an otaku, but if I use soin of the injuries

The hatchet that I occasionally used it, because it was at home, but I'm sure that I would use a scoop if it didn't have it

However, I can say that the SDF is a soldier, but he doesn't know the usefulness of the scoop

Did you not have listened that the scoop played an active role in Second World War?

Whatever

”Well then, let's go ahead”

”Right Let's go”

I advance with Pochi in the lead

After a while, as usual, Pochi stops his feet

I also stop

”What's up? You stopped suddenly?”

”It's an enemy Please prepare yourself”

As expected of veterans They prepare immediately

A little later a rat came out from the road

There was one

”What would you do?”

”Right? First of all, watch hoe fight”

When says so, the captain steps forward

Then, prepare the scoop

The rat head for him

Well, ill you do?

I observe how the captainrat

The mouse approached a certain distance from the captain

Then, the rat suddenly bleay

Eh?

What happened?

”U~n, like this?”

”It's not a big deal, right? Captain”
