"Oh!" Okita's eyes lit up, and then he showed a happy smile, "It's been a long time since I heard someone praise our natural flow!"

"You are right! If our natural style is 'peasant swordsmanship', then there will be few schools left in the world that are not 'peasant swordsmanship'!"

Having said this, Okita paused.

"You can actually see the value of our Natural Rishin-ryu. Have you ever learned swordsmanship before?"

"I only know a little bit about swordsmanship." Qingdeng shook his head honestly, "I'm only good at unarmed combat and baton...ah, no, ten surgeries. So I can vaguely see how extraordinary your school is."

"Hand-to-hand combat and ten surgeries?" Okita was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked up and down Qingteng several times, and finally focused on the seal on Qingteng's right waist, "You turn out to be an official of the execution office!"

——You just found out...

After smiling in his heart, Qingdeng said:

"Well, I am the same as the one from the town designated by Beiban."

"Oh! Sadauchihui? One of the 'Three Chapters'?" Okita's eyes lit up again, "No wonder he is good at unarmed combat and ten surgeries."

After saying that, Okita, whose eyes were shining with excitement, said slowly in a cautious and expectant tone:

"Then, um...can you let me see your seal?"

"Huh? Of course."

Although he was puzzled as to why Okita was interested in his inrō, Seito quickly took off the exquisite inrō hanging from his right waist that only an official like him could possess.

, and then handed it to Okita.

Okita carefully held Aoto's inro in his hand as if he were holding something fragile, turning it over and over to look at it carefully.

"Are you very interested in the seal cage at the shrine?" Qingden asked curiously.

"No, I'm very interested in the 'Sanchai' at the shrine." Okita looked at Aoto's inro carefully and handed it back to Aoto with a reluctant gesture. "I've been there since I was a child.

Since then, I have always admired the 'Three Chapters' samurai in the training center."

"I think they are amazing. They have been working hard to maintain public order in the city."

"If I have the opportunity in the future, I also want to join the 'Three Chapters'! I will run to protect the people and kill those little evil thieves!"

After saying that, Okita, whose face was full of determination, raised his hand and patted his flat chest vigorously.

"Running around to protect the people...is very tiring." Qingdeng responded in a half-joking tone.

"If I can kill Xiaoxiao and protect the people, then even if I suffer a little pain and fatigue, I think it's worth it." After saying that, Okita showed a bright smile to Qingnobo again.

Okita seemed to be particularly interested in Qingnobo's identity as a "policeman", and he then asked Qingnobo:

"I have always been interested in the 'rope catching technique' spread in 'Three Chapters'!"

As Okita spoke, he moved his arms in strange movements as he did.

"I once had the pleasure of watching a certain 'Three Chapters' samurai use the rope-catching technique to catch thieves on the street."

"The thief hit him with a punch. The 'Three Chapters' samurai raised his hand and caught the thief's fist. Then he twisted the thief's hands back with a 'swish, swish' and used a rope to catch the thief.

His hands were bound tightly."

"It's really amazing. It can tie up people's hands at such a fast speed."

Rope-catching technique - a technique passed down from generation to generation among the officials in the Edo period to quickly tie up thieves with a rope.

This is considered one of the required skills for the "Sanchai" warriors responsible for maintaining law and order.

"Original Tachibana Aoden" has pretty good attainments in the rope-catching technique, so after inheriting his memory, Aoden is good at one more unarmed combat technique.

"I've always wanted to find an opportunity to ask you - how did you tie up someone who was punching you just a moment ago?"

After asking, Okita blinked curiously.

"Ah, this...how should I put it..." Qingdeng raised his hand and touched his chin, "I can't explain it clearly just by talking about it dryly like this."

"How about this - you attack me with your fists, and I will directly demonstrate to you how we can tie up the person who is attacking us in one breath."

Qingdeng stood up and took out a cuff tie from his arms.

[Note: Sleeve ties: The sleeves of Japanese kimonos are very wide. Such wide sleeves are very inconvenient no matter what they do. Therefore, before doing work, people often use sleeve ties to tie the sleeves on both sides of the kimono.

Get up. Sleeve bands became one of the items that people in the Edo period always carried with them when they went out.]

Seeing that Aoto said that he wanted to demonstrate in practice, the look of anticipation in Okita's eyes became even stronger.

"Can I just punch him?" Okita stood up straight.

"Well, just hit me directly." After saying this, Qingden changed to a half-joking tone, "But don't hit too hard. My level of rope-catching skills is not very high. If you hit too hard,

If it's too fierce, I might not be able to take it."

"Then...I'll try my best to pretend to be a weak old woman!" Okita chuckled.

"There's no need to pretend to be too weak. Okay, you can fight here."

"Okay! Then - I'm coming!"

Okita took a deep breath, and then punched Qingto's chest with a slightly stronger right straight punch.

Aoden did not immediately launch a counterattack against Okita, but instead took a step to the side to avoid Okita's attack.

He is waiting.

Waiting for the best opportunity to tie Okita up in one go.

Seeing that the blow missed, Okita quickly retracted the fist he had just punched, and then punched Qingbo again, but Qingbo dodged it again.

Based on Okita's movements, it is not difficult to see that he is completely playful. His fists are not exerting their full strength at all.

However, I don't know if it was because he had learned swordsmanship, but Okita's position and attack angle were very good, and Aoto was unable to find the best opportunity to counterattack for a while.

It wasn't until Okita threw his fifth punch that Qingto finally had the best chance to counterattack——

When Okita's small fist was about to be imprinted on Aoto's chest, Aoto followed the rope-catching technique in the memory of "Hara Tachibana Seitobu" and quickly ducked to the side. Then he swung him out.

He pulled Okita's right fist and his left hand behind him, and quickly tied Okita's hands tightly with a sleeve belt.

How is it? How does it feel to be arrested by the "Three Times" samurai? Aotobu wanted to say this to Okita in a joking tone.

But just when he opened his mouth, a series of system sounds in his head made Qingden immediately stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
