I teach judo in Tokyo.

She continued, "After observing you for the past two days, I've discovered that you didn't actually coerce Mifune into becoming your disciple. The two of you have a very good relationship. I was just meddling in other people's business."

"Oh? So what?" Sousuke shook the bamboo sword in his hand. It was clearly a high-quality bamboo sword that Motoko Gofuku had carefully maintained, and it felt quite comfortable to hold.

Then, he looked at the kendo girl in front of him with a grin: "Shouldn't you be bowing deeply to apologize to me? Why do you look like you're about to draw your sword?"

"You're joking." Motoko Goka wasn't angered by Sousuke's teasing. Instead, she slowly drew another bamboo sword. "Please forgive my abruptness. Our previous agreement is null and void. Even if you are defeated by me, you don't need to sever your master-disciple relationship with Mifune..."

Then, Motoko Gomoku assumed a kendo stance similar to that of "Kasumi," a stance in which she crossed her hands to grip the hilt, held the sword parallel to her cheeks and ears, with the tip pointing forward.

"However, I really admire the kendo skills of the Miracles Club members, so I still want to fight you. Please accept my request."

After hearing this, Sousuke nodded with a half-smile: "Right here? Without protective gear?"

Wufang Suzi calmly replied, "That's right. If your swordsmanship level can truly approach mine, then I believe that in our sparring, even without protective gear, we can adjust our strength in time to ensure we don't get injured..."

"I don't accept it." Before Motoko Itō could finish speaking, she saw Sōsuke shake his head in refusal.

She was taken aback by his question: "Why?"

Sousuke slung the bamboo sword over his shoulder and said calmly with a smile, "Gofuku-kun, you've made a mistake."

Seeing the kendo girl's puzzled look, he continued, "You previously thought that you wanted to defeat me to save Mifune from my clutches."

His smile sent a chill down Wu Fang Su Zi's spine: "But... my goal is to take you as my disciple as well! Therefore, your act of canceling the agreement is—"

"Absolutely not!"

He gave a soft shout, and with the bamboo knife on his shoulder, he strode forward, his whole body bathed in the moonlight and the lights of the school gate, his figure transforming into a fierce gust of wind.

In less than a second, he traversed the short distance between the two and arrived in front of Wufang Suzi!

So fast!

Wu Fang Suzi's eyes trembled, and she instantly entered a fighting state.

In Sousuke's eyes, the illusory "Heavenly Sword" label above the kendo girl's head suddenly ignited with a dazzling light.

Immediately, under Xiaoxia's command, Wufang Suzi thrust out her bamboo sword with overwhelming force!

However, Sosuke's bamboo sword had already been slashing out rapidly without anyone noticing.

Wufang Suzi's bamboo sword was aimed at Sousuke's chest.

Sousuke's bamboo sword slashed down, but its target was the sword in Motoko's hand!

A crisp "snap!" sounded.

In an instant, Sosuke's bamboo sword was cleaved down by his overwhelming power. Then, under Sosuke's fluid and skillful manipulation, the bamboo sword in his hand suddenly stopped its downward strike, and the tip of the sword instantly curled up.

The bamboo sword's blade firmly pressed against Wu Fang Su Zi's chest.

The two remained motionless, as if frozen in place.

"You lost," Sosuke said with a smile, as if he had done something insignificant.

"As agreed... you'll be my younger brother..."

"Wait a minute!" Motoko Itako, breathing rapidly, quickly interrupted Atobe Sousuke.

She lowered her head and said, "Atobe-kun, although it might seem like I'm cheating, I really wasn't prepared and I underestimated your abilities. Please, please give me another chance..."

Sosuke paused, then shook his head helplessly: "So, you want to fight again?"

"Yes!" Wufang Suzi's face was slightly flushed, clearly ashamed of her for saying such a shameless thing.

Sosuke smiled. Instead of sheathing his bamboo sword, he casually placed the weapon into Motoko's hand.

"I'll come to the kendo club to find you tomorrow."

Chapter 66 Collapse of the Four Directions

"I'll come to the kendo club to find you tomorrow."

Atobe Sousuke shrugged and said it casually.

Then he turned and left, leaving only one sentence behind.

"In swordsmanship, never underestimate your opponent. If we were truly fighting to the death, you would already be dead."

Wufang Suzi bit her lip hard, knowing that she had been looked down upon by the departing man.

I felt inexplicably sad.

She did not actually underestimate her opponent.

Rather than underestimating it, it's more accurate to say that Atobe Sousuke's power was far too domineering, exceeding her expectations.

With a disparity in strength, and having been targeted by a weapon, his stance was broken in a single move, leading to his defeat.

Use your strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

In this encounter, she probably only used less than 30% of her swordsmanship skills.

This kind of duel has gone beyond the realm of "kendo"—she was defeated by Sousuke's "strategy".

She watched Sosuke's retreating figure.

Tomorrow, I will definitely wash away the shame of tonight!

***

"My attempt to show off failed..."

Sosuke walked slowly home, and couldn't help but sigh.

That's right, using force to intimidate others was his pre-planned idea.

He originally intended to take advantage of Wufang Suzi's lack of awareness of his power and seize the opportunity to win.

Unexpectedly, this swordswoman, who seemed righteous and awe-inspiring, was not pedantic at all.

Although they lost, they refused to admit defeat.

Now that his opponent knows his extraordinary strength, if they really fight tomorrow, Wufang Suzi will be able to use her amplification abilities, making him much harder to defeat than he was tonight.

After all, with the relevant entries, Motoko Goto's kendo level is "No Outer Flow 10 (++)".

Sosuke did not believe that the two "+" signs simply meant "+2".

Moreover, only the swordsmanship level of Motoko Gofuku is displayed on her panel.

However, Sousuke suspects that, in addition to swordsmanship level, this attribute might also improve physical functions and other aspects.

"It's alright, we can do it again tomorrow." Sosuke was just a little disappointed, but he wasn't too upset about it.

Even if he were to fight Gofuku in a fair and square fight, he would still have a chance of winning.

In fact, if we're talking about winning percentage, he probably has a higher one.

Men are inherently physically stronger than women.

Moreover, Sousuke's body has been optimized by the system. His strength, agility, and all other physical functions are top-notch in his weight class, making his advantages over women even more exaggerated.

Even with the added advantages from the astrological descriptions, Wu Fang Su Zi would probably be no match for him in terms of pure physical abilities.

Moreover, he has acquired a new ultimate skill, "The Sword of No Thought," and the essence of the Sword of No Thought is perfectly suited to fully utilize his strengths...

While pondering, Sosuke walked briskly and soon returned to the dojo.

Pushing open the gate and stepping into the courtyard, the first thing I saw was Maruko Kuno.

The bright moonlight poured down like flowing water.

The widow was bathed in the night, with a simple ponytail, wearing a judo uniform that was already a little dirty, and white cloth shoes on her feet.

The white judo belt was tied to a large tree in the yard.

She held one end of the strap in each hand.

Rotate and strike, using your waist and hands to generate force, then return to the starting position.

He kept repeating the over-the-shoulder throw posture.

Each time I gritted my teeth and exerted my strength, it seemed to pull the thick cherry blossom tree to tremble slightly.

She is practicing diligently!

Even without Sousuke's supervision, the widow did not relax her self-discipline and even took the initiative to increase the intensity of her practice.

Kuno Maruko was so engrossed in her practice that she didn't even notice Atobe Sousuke standing and watching for a long time.

"197......198......199......"

"200!"

The widow's clenched teeth loosened, her hands went limp, and she involuntarily staggered forward a few steps, about to fall to the ground.

Then, her waist was gently hooked by a pair of strong hands.

Immediately afterwards, the widow's beautiful body was swept up by a large hand and pulled into a broad embrace.

"ah!"

Kuno Maruko was shocked and reacted quickly by reaching out her hands to grab the collar of the person holding her, and then she was about to exert force.

At that moment, she saw the "attacker's" face, and her strength immediately gave way, causing her to forget her next move.

"Zong...Zongsuke-kun!"

The widow immediately released her grip on his clothes and then pressed her hands, bewildered, against Sosuke's chest.

Sosuke smiled and, instead of letting go of the shy widow, hugged her even tighter, pressing the two of them close together.

Feeling the soft, alluring body in his arms, his inner demons suddenly arose.

He couldn't help but admire the woman's figure, which was enough to tempt someone to commit a crime.

She said words of praise: "Kuno-nee, you train really hard, I'm so proud of you."

Kuno Maruko trembled slightly from the boy's hard body and hot breath, and shyly lowered her head to whisper, "Sousuke-kun, could you... could you be a little gentler? I... I can't breathe."

"not good."

Sosuke refused decisively, but instead tightened his grip even more, placing his large hands on the widow's beautiful waist and hip area.

That's an amazing waist-to-hip ratio.

His fingers slid slightly, as if you could feel the smooth texture through the judo uniform.

"I haven't seen Kuno-nee for three days, I want to hug her a little longer." Sousuke lowered his head, wanting to get closer to the widow.

The two became entwined, their necks intertwined.

However, no matter how hard Sosuke tried, due to the strong cushioning pad unique to widows, he could only flatten the cushioning pad at most, and still could not fit it tightly without gaps.

The widow dared not speak again, and could only lower her head and pant.

"Sō...Sōsuke-kun, it's a little...a little uncomfortable..."

After a long while, the widow's shy voice rang out softly.

After satisfying his craving, Sosuke generously released the beautiful woman and then took her hand and led her into the house.

The beautiful woman didn't mind holding hands so intimately, and obediently followed beside Sosuke, looking at him with tender eyes: "Sosuke-kun, it's almost nine o'clock, have you had dinner yet?"

"No, I was just thinking about how good the food Kuno-nee made for me was, so I didn't want to eat any cheap food from outside." Sosuke chuckled.

He said nice things, but what he really wanted to eat was people.

"Oh, how can you not eat anything? It's bad for your stomach!" Kuno Maruko immediately became anxious when she heard that Sousuke hadn't eaten dinner. She hurriedly pulled him to the dining table and pressed him down to sit.

Then, without even changing out of her judo uniform, she hurriedly went into the kitchen to heat up the dishes.

Sosuke watched with a smile as the beautiful woman bustled about in the kitchen, her graceful figure displayed before him.

Wearing a judo uniform, Kuno Maruko possesses a unique and alluring charm.

This feeling is largely similar to that of the uniform series.

As he watched, Sosuke felt that the inner demons that had subsided after the embrace were showing signs of resurfacing.

He couldn't help but glance at the widow's panel.
