Tang Qi pointed his gun at Bingyouwei but did not shoot because Yagyu Saburo was standing next to him. Tang Qi could tell from the other party's aura that this person was a master, the first real master Tang Qi had met since he traveled through time.
After running such a long distance, Yagyu Saburo was still calm and composed. The knife in his hand was as sharp as snow, reflecting the sunlight in the sky. His eyes were like the blade in his hand, locking onto Tang Qi who was getting closer and closer.
"Sir, as a samurai, I want to duel with you." Bingyouwei shouted loudly at Tang Qi.
Bang! Tang Xiao didn't answer him with words, but answered with the gun in his hand.
Tang Qi and Bing Youwei were less than ten steps apart at this time. At such a close distance, not to mention someone like Bing Youwei, even Tang Qi himself could not dodge the shot. The knife in Bing Youwei's hand was still raised, but there was a bloody hole between his eyebrows, and blood gushed out of the hole.
Bing Youwei opened his eyes wide, unwillingly, and the light in his eyes gradually faded. He didn't want to die like this. He always thought that he was a warrior and should die like a warrior. But in Tang Li's eyes, he was just a beast that deserved to be killed. For such beasts, Tang Li believed that there was no need to waste time talking to them before killing them.
"It's your turn. You look like a warrior and could have escaped. Why didn't you?" Tang Lu knew that the other party would not give him time to reload the gun, so he simply threw the gun to the soldier who followed behind him and drew out the broadsword that Ming Dynasty officers often wore.
This Pudao is an ordinary sword, and the blade light is dim, far inferior to the sword in Yagyu Saburo's hand.
"My name is Yagyu Saburo. I won't leave because I promised to be the bodyguard of Lord Bingyouwei. Although I knew that this day would come when he would die in the land of the Ming Dynasty, his death is ultimately due to my failure to protect him properly. So, I ask you to give me a decent death." Yagyu Saburo stuck the knife in his hand into the ground and said quietly.
Tang Lu dismounted and saw the other party stabbing the knife into the ground. He was a little surprised: "Oh, how do you want to die?"
"I was already a senior ninja of the Yagyu clan when I was nineteen years old. Now, six years have passed, and I can be considered a master. I know that the Ming Dynasty is a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden, and there are even more masters among the Han people. I came to the Ming Dynasty a year ago, but encountered a storm at sea. Finally, I was rescued by Lord Bingyouwei, so I agreed to be his bodyguard for two years. Today I met you, I know that I can't escape your gun, but I hope to have the last competition with you in my life. I wonder if you are interested?" Yagyu Saburo bowed to Tang Yu, his attitude was quite polite.
After all, we still have to compete. Tang Xiao smiled and said with some contempt: "What if I don't agree?"
"Hey, I think you would agree, because you are a true master in the Ming Dynasty, and you would have this kind of bearing. My mother often said that the Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette, and the real Han people are the most particular about bearing." Yagyu Saburo bowed again, and there was no panic in his eyes because of Tang Li's words.
"You are right. It's amazing that your mother is such a sensible person." If he had flattered Tang Qi directly, Tang Qi would not have felt anything. But when Yagyu Saburo flattered the entire Han people, Tang Qi felt comfortable in his heart. His tone of voice became much gentler, and his murderous intent also faded a lot.
"My mother is from the Ming Dynasty. My parents died early, and I was raised by my mother. Saburo dare not forget the teachings of my mother." Yagyu Saburo did not raise his head, but Tang Lu could hear the sadness in his tone.
"Oh, so you are not a complete Japanese. Are you interested in working for me?" After hearing what Yagyu Saburo said, Tang Lu couldn't help but think in his heart that if this is really the case, this person is a Japanese traitor worth training.
The main reason why Tang Lu had this idea was that he could see that Yagyu Saburo was not a coward who was afraid of death and would not say such words for the sake of his life. A person who was raised and educated by the people of the Ming Dynasty since childhood would generally be psychologically inclined towards the Ming Dynasty, so Tang Lu had the idea of recruiting him, which might be useful in the future.
"If you can defeat me, Yagyu Saburo is willing to become a strong subordinate." Yagyu Saburo raised his head, and the sharp feeling in his eyes became even stronger.
Damn, speaking of which, this Japanese is still the same, likes to be a lackey of the strong. Tang Yu couldn't help but despise him in his heart and said, "Then, I will let you see our Han martial arts."
"Hey, thank you for your help." Yagyu Saburo did not draw out his own sword, but picked up an ordinary long sword. Obviously, he did not want to take advantage of Tang Lu with his long sword.
"To be honest, I hate you Japanese, but people like you still have some good points, so I don't mind letting you see our Han martial arts." After Tang Yu finished speaking, he stepped forward. His steps were not very fast, but the slight sound of his footsteps was like the beating of a war drum, shaking people's hearts.
Although the soldiers standing behind Tang Qi had only practiced some grappling and fighting techniques, as well as some rudimentary swordsmanship, as soon as they heard Tang Qi's footsteps, the thought that their Lord Tang was extremely powerful once again surged in their hearts. Yagyu Saburo was facing Tang Qi's attack directly, and as Tang Qi's footsteps approached step by step, his eyes not only did not show cowardice, but instead revealed a hint of excited fighting desire.
Everyone pursues different goals in life. Some like money, some like beauty, some like power, and there are even more people who like all three. But what Yagyu Saburo likes most is martial arts.
"Take it." Tang Qi shouted softly, and the knife in his hand turned into a knife shadow, layered like a mountain of knives.
Yagyu Saburo also roared and rushed forward with the knife in his hand. His knife was so fast that it left a faint afterglow in people's eyes. Compared with Tang Yu's knife light, it was like a faint starlight under the bright moon.
With a slight sound, the two figures that had crossed each other exchanged positions. Half of the blade flew up between the two people, attracting the attention of the onlookers. No one saw that a strand of long hair fluttered down between the two people.
"You lost." Tang Qi slowly turned around and said to Yagyu Saburo who was standing there motionless.
The remaining half of the sword in Yagyu Saburo's hand fell to the ground. Yagyu Saburo turned around with a pale face, knelt on one knee and said, "Yagyu Saburo greets the master."
"Get up. Since you've already accepted me as your master, I'll teach you a couple of moves as a welcome present." Tang Lu sheathed his own sword, grabbed Yagyu Saburo's sword stuck in the ground, and said, "I'll show you the true art of drawing a sword and slashing against the wind."
After Tang Qi finished speaking, he stretched out his foot and hooked the body of the soldier on the right into the air, then drew his sword and slashed at Chu Qi. Even with Yagyu Saburo's eyesight, he could only see a glimmer of the sword. Tang Qi's men didn't see how Tang Qi drew his sword at all, and didn't even know whether Tang Qi drew his sword or not. They only saw that the body of the soldier on the right was broken into four large pieces, with his internal organs scattered all over the ground.
"Did you see it clearly?" Tang Qi asked, letting go of the knife stuck in the ground.
"Hey, I see it a little more clearly, master." Yagyu Saburo nodded.
"If you don't understand, I'll teach you later. Now help me clean up the remaining Japanese pirates on the battlefield." Tang Chen didn't look at Yagyu Saburo again. He walked past him and took his gun from his subordinate's hand.
"Hi, master." Without hesitation, Yagyu Saburo drew his sword and rushed towards the Japanese pirates.
Because Yagyu Saburo had lost his parents since childhood and suffered a lot of bullying when he was young, he had no sense of belonging to the Japanese. Moreover, the Japanese generally tend to obey and follow the strong. Now that Yagyu Saburo recognized Tang Yu as his master, he had no psychological burden about killing those Japanese pirates.
The reason why Bing Youwei couldn't command him before was because in his eyes, Bing Youwei was a weakling and a weakling was not qualified to command a strong person. He agreed to be Bing Youwei's bodyguard purely because Bing Youwei saved his life.
But Tang Qi was not stupid. Tang Qi was much stronger than Yagyu Saburo, and he was also an officer of the Celestial Empire, the Ming Dynasty. He was a person worthy of Yagyu Saburo's allegiance. What's more, the two tricks that Tang Qi taught him made Yagyu Saburo willing to recognize Tang Qi as his master from the bottom of his heart, and he worked hard to kill those Japanese pirates.
Tang Qi was quite satisfied with Yagyu Saburo's behavior. He was a very good lackey, worthy of keeping by his side. Since the death of Beiyouwei, Yagyu Saburo surrendered to him, and the remaining Japanese pirates were almost dealt with. He left one person to seize the ship left by the Japanese pirates, and the others dispersed to hunt down the escaped Japanese pirates.
This time, all the pirates of Hyoyouwei went out, leaving only thirty or so to watch the ship. So with the help of Yagyu Saburo, they easily seized all the pirates' ships. Tang Li came to Hyoyouwei's ship. Looking at the big ship, Tang Li was very happy in his heart. But when he pushed open the hatch, the scene inside surprised Tang Li.
