No one challenged Roja, and the square remained deafeningly silent as he stood in the middle of the arena. As a result, there is no rule in the evaluation that states that they must confront Roja, allowing the recruit to avoid coming up against him.
Some recruits considered taking on additional individuals, while others preferred to wait and see how the crisis unfolded on their own terms.
Normally, under normal conditions This kind of fight will begin with the weak going up against each other, followed by the powerful. The middle may emerge from time to time, but they will not alter the outcome much.
But because of Roja, this tournament got off to an unusual start.
At this point, the top 10 candidates could no longer stand by and watch as Roja swept everyone apart in the evaluation.
So you're ready to begin the top 10 fight right away? What's the harm in trying?
After a lengthy period of quiet, the conflicts were re-started at long last.
With one of the sides still being Roja and the other side being a different colour... The third Group's most powerful member is the one rated ninth, who is a Monster level recruit.
Even though a monster is rated lower than Drake, a monster is still a monster, and this creature was well-known in the camp and had a high level of popularity.
When the recruits see him, they are all giddy with excitement.
"It's him!!" says the narrator.
"The third category is the most powerful. Ninth place in the rankings... It will be very difficult for Roja to win if he wants to."
"Yes, despite the fact that Roja is a formidable opponent, his opponent this time is in the top ten."
(Tl: Is that really true?! Did they all forget that Roja is the champion and that he is in first place, I wonder!!)
All of the recruits seemed to be excited and looking forward to the fight ahead of them.
In addition, when contrasted to the recruitment The marine instructors who worked with Z had a better understanding of Roja, while the recruits were unaware of Roja's abilities. They were completely unaware of the flaming sword.
And that power hadn't been shown yet.
"Roja's swordmanship is exceptional; in fact, apart from Drake, there is no one who could possibly stand in his way. I'm not sure whether he has a chance against Drake."
Despite the fact that Roja still has his flaming sword, Drake didn't utilise his entire power, which is unlikely.
With their strength, they would be at the top of the elite camp by now, according to the author.
Several teachers took a few steps back and started talking about the arena.
And now Roja has taken a closer look at his opponent's sword and has determined that it is not one of the Marine standard swords, but rather one of the ryu wazamono or, more likely, one of the o wazamono sword series.
A sharp metallic sound and bursts of spark were created by the impact of Roja and the recruit, and the collision released a crisp metallic sound and spark bursts.
This is the first time Roja has been face to face with someone with a sword and has avoided cutting or damaging his weapon in the process. Roja could tell right away that this weapon wasn't composed of regular materials since he saw it for the first time.
"At long last, a respectable opponent."
When faced with this, Roja didn't show any signs of fear; instead, he smiled and became thrilled.
Sword sweep is a verb that means to sweep with a sword.
During this time, Roja discovered that attacking a moving opponent with Tobu zangeki is different from the practise since it is more difficult.
The reason for this is because he attacks an immovable target in practise but in a real fight the adversary will not stay still to serve as a live target.
As a result, his strength isn't as powerful as it was when he was precticed.
Roja, on the other hand, was not taken aback by this. A battle is different from a practise session. A battle would allow him to gain complete control of his abilities.
Wouch!
Following the stroke of a sword, a halfmoon-shaped beam of energy blasted out horizontally.
In the face of this the recruit appeared cool and he also swinged his sword which also generated a faint invisible energy.
The two energies clashed in the air and created friction sound with the air then burst and some energy struck the surrounding environment. The recruits new clothing had several peices cut by the energy.
While Roja was standing there without a scratch.
"Come again."
Roja used simple swordplay and didn't create any move. So his swordplay ddin't have any unique manoeuvre simply straight forward swordsmanship.
Ding!!!
Two sword energy clashed again and this time waves of powerful wind struck the audience in all directions.
Under Roja's sword blow while he could receive them nevertheless his hands are numb. He didn't anticipate Roja's strength to have reached this level.
In this kind of swordsmanship power is the key for victory.
Like how Zoro developed his arms strength from an early age from the beginning of the storey. He could raise a house full of people with his arm power. So even when he didn't use the focused state his strength was much more powerfull.
Now Roja's strength maybe didn't reach that level yet but he did comprehend the focused state.
Ding Ding Ding!
Roja's swordplay was extremely simple there wasn't any fansy moves, All he got are simple sword swings. And even so his opponent couldn't continue to receive his strike and wanted to avoid them now.
But contrary to his expectation Roja's sword speed was also very fast. There was no chance for him to avoid and was forced into direct confrontation.
with continuous fighting Roja gradually adepted to real combat and his swings become more and more powerful and neared the power he exerted when precticing.
Ding Ding Ding!
Roja used more and more energy strike. that recruit was unable to stand still and with every sword he was forced to retreat while Roja stepped Forward.
Ding!!
Finally after this last strike the man Could no longer hold his sword as his hands became completely numband Roja directly made his sword fly directly to the side.
"I lost."
This recruit didn't think much and directly admitted his defeat and turned down and got out of the arena.
This scene made all recruit feel numb. Roja's continuous victory made them feel numb.
After a moment someone reacted.
Even the one ranked ninth is defeated ?
Morever he was thoroughly defeated , in the whole fight he failed to counter attack even once and lastly was defeated .
Although he didn't win with just a swing , But anyone can see how obvious the gap between them was.
