It wasn't until the series of system sounds in his mind fell that Ogata finally had the extra energy to listen to what everyone in the Ishikawa Sword Gym was roaring in front of him.
"Ogata Yishi! You despicable villain! You used such a despicable method to harm my brother!"
"Give me your life for your life!"
"You despicable and shameless guy! Win in such a dirty way! Are you still an upright warrior like this?!"
...
Regarding the accusations made by the disciples of the Ishikawa Sword Gym, the corner of Ogata's mouth curved into a mocking arc.
"Despicable and shameless?"
Ogata said softly.
"Being mean and shameless is just an excuse for the loser. As long as you can win, whatever you do is right."
Ogata's words were tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.
The people who were already furious because Yuan Shan was killed pulled out their sabers one after another.
The moment everyone in the Ishikawa Kenkan pulled out their sabers, everyone in the Sakakibara Kenkan, headed by Hanbei, also pulled out their sabers.
"Stand back!" Hanbei yelled at all the disciples in the Ishikawa Sword Gym.
"What are you all doing here!" Ishikawa Bingma came late at this time, "Hurry up and take back the knife!"
Although Ishikawa Bingma's words and tone were harsh.
But the disciples of the Ishikawa Sword Gym, who were already angry, could no longer listen to their master's words.
They clenched the sabers in their hands, glared viciously at Ogata, who was being protected by everyone in the Sakakibara Sword Gym, and vowed to kill Ogata to avenge Toyama's murder.
And all the masters and apprentices of Sakakihara Sword Gym also vowed to protect Ogata.
When watching a big melee is about to break out——
"enough!"
A loud shout suddenly exploded.
Affected by this angry shout, most of the strong murderous aura in the arena dissipated, and everyone on the arena turned their heads to follow the sound.
The owner of this big drink is naturally the old man in the audience - Cang Yong.
Cang Yong stood up from his small stool at this moment, and scanned the crowd in the competition arena with his plain eyes.
"Give me back the knife!"
"Are you planning to break out a scuffle right under my nose?"
"Everyone watched the whole battle just now."
"Every knife of Toyama-kun is fatal, and every knife is aimed at taking Ogata-kun's life."
"Since you are fighting with the idea of killing the other party, you must also be prepared to be killed by others."
"Mr. Toyama wanted to kill Mr. Ogata, but he was beheaded by Mr. Ogata because of his poor swordsmanship—this is reasonable and irrefutable."
As soon as Cang Yong's voice fell, some nobles in the auditorium echoed:
"That's right. The boss is right."
"Both of them took out real knives to compete, and there must be casualties."
"I'm not good at swordsmanship, but I was killed by my opponent-this is reasonable, and I don't think there is anything to criticize."
...
These people who echoed Cang Yong,
Not everyone agrees with what Cang Yong said just now.
The reason why they go along with Cang Yong is purely to gain a good impression in front of Cang Yong, and to get close to Cang Yong.
Everyone in the Ishikawa Sword Gym clearly heard that Cang Yong intended to protect Ogata, so they all showed anxious expressions.
"My lord!" one of the disciples of the Ishikawa Sword Gym shouted, "This Ogata Yasushi used such a despicable method to win! We can't stand it!"
"Despicable?" As soon as the disciple's words fell, Cang Yong sneered a few times as if he had heard some funny joke, "Just now what Ogata-kun said was right, despicable and shameless is just an excuse for losers , as long as you can win, no matter what you do is right.”
"It is necessary to defeat the opponent in an upright manner? This kind of rule only applies to practicing swords with others in the dojo! In a real death fight, who cares about benevolence, morality, and uprightness?!"
"Put away the sword for me quickly! Today's competition is Ogata Yishi's victory! No one is allowed to have another word, and no one is allowed to have any embarrassment for Ogata-kun!"
Hearing Cang Yong's sonorous and powerful words, all the people present were shocked.
Whether it is the masters and apprentices of the Ishikawa Sword Gym, or the nobles in the audience, or Hanbei, Mikami and others, all of them showed shock at this time.
Even Ogata's face showed shock at this time, and this shock on Ogata's face was also mixed with a little doubt.
As far as Ogata knew—he was just meeting Kura Naga for the first time today.
He really couldn't figure it out - he just met Cang Yong for the first time today, and he didn't even say a word, why would Cang Yong protect him so much?
Although everyone in the Ishikawa Sword Gym was upright, their anger gradually subsided after hearing Cang Yong's "suggestion", which was no different from a threat, and then they put their swords back into their sheaths unwillingly.
Seeing that everyone in the Ishikawa Sword Gym put away their knives and put them back into their sheaths, Banbingwei also ordered Sanshang and the others to put away their knives.
After terminating a scuffle that was about to break out with a few words, Cang Yong turned his head and said to a servant beside him:
"Go and call Xuan'an for me, and ask Xuan'an to treat Ogata-kun."
"Yes!"
...
...
"finished……"
Looking at the people in the Ishikawa Sword Gym who had already sheathed their swords in front of them, Ogata muttered in a volume that only he could hear clearly, and then heaved a long sigh as if he was relieved.
After the nerves that had been tense just now were relaxed, Ogata only felt exhaustion flooding towards him like a tidal wave...
Taking out the pocket paper that he carried with him, and after wiping off the blood, fat and other things stained on the knife, Ogata slowly put the knife back into its sheath.
"...Toyama Toyama is dead...the days to come...should be a little calmer..."
"Ah...the people from the Ishikawa Sword Gym might take revenge on me..."
"Forget it... let's talk about this kind of thing later..."
Ogata didn't notice.
When he relaxed his nerves and breathed a sigh of relief, Cang Yong, who was still standing in the auditorium, was watching him silently with intriguing eyes...
