Chapter 1326: Chapter 1323
As Skybreaker tore through the heavens…
Maruko Show turned into a mere afterimage in the instant Oliver Walker reached out to grab it.
A sword landed right between Oliver Walker and Skybreaker!
The message was clear; to return something to its rightful owner seemed trivial, but losing the Rainbow Sword meant that his life had reached its endpoint.
Therefore…
Guilt may be real!
But he would never willingly give up his life. If he truly saw through the vanity of worldly affairs, why bother coming out of retirement for a bounty of tens of billions?
“Damn it!”
“Shit!”
“…”
Lucas Davis and Vivian Li cursed simultaneously.
How despicable does one have to be to make a move at this time?
Didn’t he just talk about a fateful struggle?
Turns out all that was bullshit!
So it seems that even a master isn’t always honorable and straightforward!
Plainly speaking, it’s all about staying alive, about living better!
“Heh…”
Oliver Walker scoffed coldly, his body in the air, gracefully returning to the distance like a dragonfly skimming the water.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”
Meanwhile, Maruko Show, wielding the Rainbow Sword, continued to produce a metallic symphony of sword sounds in the air.
Each strike swept towards Oliver Walker’s vital points.
Without a weapon to counter, Oliver Walker soon found himself at a disadvantage!
But he was not in a rush!
Both “Snowfall Swordsmanship” and “Rainbow Snowfall” were sword techniques.
Though the sword moves were sharp and graceful, compared to swordsmanship they still lacked a bit of the killer instinct, instead possessing more finesse.
Of course, this isn’t to say sword techniques are necessarily weaker than swordsmanship!
It’s just that those who use swords often prefer to show off…
While those who practice swordsmanship prefer to swing widely without even a hint of subtlety.
Seeing this, Jessica Wright’s brows knitted slightly, and she transformed into a white blur, pulling the Sky-breaking Sword from the ground and shouting loudly, “Senior brother, catch the sword!”
As the Sky-breaking Sword was once again thrown into the air…
Jessica Wright drew her dagger and charged towards the approaching Maruko Show, thrusting straight at him: “You old fart!”
This shout was undoubtedly to attract attention!
In fact, Maruko Show was indeed distracted.
If it had been a one-on-one situation, defeating Jessica Wright might have been troublesome, but ultimately, he would have been the victor.
But now he faced an opponent who was no less formidable than himself.
He had only managed to gain the upper hand a moment ago because he had taken the initiative and had the advantage of a weapon!
That’s why he was unwilling to see Oliver Walker get hold of a weapon!
But if he didn’t look back, he would undoubtedly be wounded by the dagger, which would be fatal for the ensuing fight!
“Little girl from the Wright family, you indeed have strong talent!”
Maruko Show sincerely exclaimed, “However…”
“This is a fight between him and me, are you sure you want to interfere?”
He deflected Jessica Wright’s attack with his sword…
But in the next moment, Oliver Walker had also leapt into the air, catching the longsword—Skybreaker!
“I’m not interested in interfering!”
Jessica Wright, seeing her senior brother catch the Skybreaker, promptly withdrew, knowing full well she couldn’t last long against Maruko Show.
It was better to wait for an opportunity to act!
After all, it was Maruko Show who broke the rules first, so a little sneak attack from her would be justifiable, right?
“Young man, you are skilled in sword techniques!”
“Using a sword to duel with me is the most foolish act!”
Maruko Show sneered, not stopping his onslaught but instead swinging the Rainbow Sword and closing in on Oliver Walker.
“Swordsmanship is interconnected!”
“A sword is also a sword!”
“And a sword is also a sword!”
Oliver Walker proudly laughed, holding Skybreaker in hand. Facing Maruko Show with the Rainbow Sword, he didn’t seem at a disadvantage at all.
Actually…
The Higashimoto samurai sword was modeled after the Tang Sword!
But through this process, many changes occurred!
The katana, compared to the Tang Sword which was suitable for cavalry combat, was significantly lighter.
And lightness is the soul of the sword!
Therefore, the katana is often referred to as swordsmanship when transliterated in the Eastern Alliance!
