Chapter 809 Momentum Confrontation
"Master, this Kodokan is not simple. It was founded during the Meiji Restoration in Sakura Country. At that time, due to the influx of a large number of Western doctrines into Sakura Country, the martial arts of Sakura Country began to decline, and the spirit of Bushido was also impacted. Many young people no longer learned their traditional martial arts, but instead learned Western fighting techniques.
It was at that time that a large number of martial artists from the Land of Sakura gathered together, led by Jigoro Kano, Gichin Funakoshi, Morihei Ueshiba and others, and jointly founded the Kodokan, revitalizing the declining martial arts, making the martial arts of the Land of Sakura spread throughout the world in the past hundred years.
The Kodokan of Sakura Country is actually equivalent to the Shaolin Temple of China, and has an extremely unique location. Back then, I also studied in Sakura Country for three years, learned their judo, karate, aikido and other kung fu, and listened to lectures in this Kodokan for a long time..."
When Lu Cheng came to visit this time, he not only brought two outstanding young people sent from the country, but also brought his apprentice Huo Ling'er and Sun Qing, an outstanding young man from the Nanyang Tang Sect.
This time, Lu Cheng wants to conquer the entire martial arts world of Sakura Country by his own strength, and he will inevitably encounter the most stubborn resistance. The impact of the spiritual will that will erupt will also be the best experience for the young warrior.
If these young people were to witness all of this and use this rare opportunity of a century to hone their will, it would definitely be of great benefit to them in the future and would greatly increase their chances of entering the path of alchemy.
After Lu Cheng and his group got off the plane, the representative of the Sports Commission immediately took over from the representative of the Japanese Sports Commission.
As soon as he walked out of the airport, Lu Cheng received an invitation from the Kodokan, inviting him to come for an exchange.
Lu Cheng didn't stop at all and took everyone to the lecture hall by car.
Just like the best fighter in the country did not come from Shaolin Temple, Yin Heyuan, the best fighter in Sakura Country, did not come from Kodokan. But in terms of the overall strength of various martial arts schools, Kodokan is definitely the undisputed number one.
Whether it is the number of disciples or the number and quality of first-class masters, Kodokan is number one.
As soon as Lu Cheng and others arrived at the street where the Kodokan was located, they saw young people wearing white judo uniforms and black belts around their waists standing on both sides of the street.
These young men stood next to each other, full of vigor and solemn faces, standing straight like javelins, just like a rigorously trained army. They stretched for two kilometers on both sides of the street, forming two neat human walls. Without making the slightest sound, they were solemn and imposing, giving people a sense of invisible pressure.
Obviously, this was a deliberate arrangement by the Kodokan to fully utilize the home advantage and gain a head start with this kind of scene in advance.
This is like when two armies were facing each other in ancient times, when they learned that the enemy was going to send an envoy, they would arrange two rows of swordsmen and axemen in advance, with swords and knives everywhere, creating a strong sense of oppression, which would make the enemy envoy lose his courage and thus lose the initiative in the negotiation.
Therefore, those who can remain calm when facing the collapse of Mount Tai, and those messengers who are not afraid of being attacked by swords and axes, are likely to leave their names in history and be admired and praised by future generations.
Of course, such a scene was nothing to Lu Cheng. He didn't know how many times he had fought back and forth among the thousands of troops. He had once controlled a million troops, not to mention the way of utmost sincerity and the perfect will of the soul.
Even the few young people around Lu Cheng followed Lu Cheng with firm steps. The blood in their hearts began to boil and their spiritual will received a deeper baptism.
After entering the lecture hall, there was a large stadium-style arena inside, with thousands of disciples sitting around. Thousands of people sat quietly without making a sound, and their auras were completely connected, as if they had merged into one, forming an even greater pressure.
There are many elites with both bright and dark energy among these people. Their mental will is even more resolute, and the pressure they create when they come together as one is too much for even Huo Ling'er and others to bear.
The thousands of disciples of the lecture hall stared at the few people in the field with murderous eyes, just like thousands of demons and evil ghosts who wanted to kill people, and wanted to skin the few humans in the middle and suck their marrow out of their bones.
For a moment, Huo Ling'er and the others felt like they were riding on a small boat on a rough sea, isolated and helpless, and facing many crises.
At this moment, fame, wealth, communication and exchange seemed no longer important. Even the battlefield of life and death and rain of bullets seemed not as dangerous as the current environment.
Under this terrifying pressure, several people looked up and saw that Lu Cheng standing in front of them was like the legendary Zhenwu Demon-Slaying Emperor. Just by simply standing there, he was able to make all the evil spirits retreat and be immune to all kinds of attacks.
Afterwards, several people subconsciously took a step forward and felt that the pressure on their bodies was instantly relieved a lot, and their admiration for Lu Cheng reached its peak.
At the same time, the same thought came to the minds of several people. Before, they saw Lu Cheng as a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky. Now, they saw Lu Cheng as a mayfly looking at the sky.
Lu Cheng's gaze swept across the entire venue calmly, then stopped on the five old men in the middle.
Huo Ling'er stepped forward and introduced Lu Cheng: "The one in the middle is the head of the Kodokan, Kano Jigoda. The two on his left and right are judo masters who became famous more than 30 years ago, Saigo Yasunosuke and Ogawa Inryu. What they are best at is... As for the two middle-aged men..."
While Huo Ling'er was quietly introducing the five masters on the opposite side, Lu Cheng glanced at the five coffins placed in front of the five people.
Lu Cheng was not interested in the detailed information of these five martial arts masters from the Sakura Country. He was going to kill them all soon anyway, so why bother to record the information of a dead person?
As for the background of the five people, Lu Cheng could see through them at a glance. Which school of martial arts they practiced and what skills they were good at were all unknown to Lu Cheng, a powerful man who knew all the martial arts in the world.
At this moment, Kano Jigoda stood up and spoke in fluent Japanese: "Mr. Lu, from the moment you stepped into the Kodokan, I felt the powerful aura on you. You are indeed a great martial artist and the strongest person I have ever seen in my life. However, I believe you have also felt the Bushido spirit of our nation.
You have five people here today, and we have five people ready. We have also asked the lawyer to prepare a death warrant and five coffins. Today is a life-and-death battle, and we have already made up our minds that we will die. I ask Mr. Lu and the other five to also be prepared for this."
Lu Cheng smiled calmly: "I have felt your national spirit a long time ago. When Miyagi Ryouta, Tamura Naoyoshi and six others came to assassinate me, I felt your national spirit and sent their heads back to you. Your spirit is indeed commendable."
Lu Cheng spoke these sarcastic words in fluent Japanese, and the atmosphere of grief and indignation at the scene immediately exploded. Shame, anger, sadness, and the fear that the six great masters were easily wiped out by Lu Cheng, all kinds of emotions were stirring, and the thousands of people around were about to explode.
Seeing this, Kano Jigoda immediately opened his mouth and sang a ballad: "Don't just think about winning, thinking like that will lead to failure. The dream of judo is hidden deep in my heart..."
This song was written for judo by a legendary female singer in Sakura Country after the end of World War II. It inspired millions of Sakura citizens to rise up from failure, rebuild their homes from the ruins, and also made martial arts rise again.
As Kano Jigoda started singing, all the disciples of the surrounding Kodokan began to sing, and the singing became one, and the atmosphere of grief and anger instantly turned into high morale.
Feeling this atmosphere, Huo Ling'er and the others were also shocked: "Generosity and sadness, lofty ambitions and passions! The spiritual will of a nation is indeed not so easy to be defeated."
When a nation is forced into a desperate situation, the power it can unleash is absolutely beyond imagination.
Although the people of Sakura Country are despicable, cruel and wolfish, they also have their generous and tragic people.
For a moment, Sun Qing and young domestic representatives Wang Hongji and Jiang Hai were all shaken. Could this godly master in front of them really defeat the martial arts spirit of an entire nation by his own strength?
The only one who always believed in Lu Cheng was Lu Cheng's apprentice, Huo Ling'er.
At this moment, Lu Cheng took a step forward and spoke loudly: "Such a spirit and such a martial art are worthy of my personal destruction! In this battle, you will die with honor!"
As Lu Cheng spoke, his voice became louder and louder, like rumbling thunder and surging waves, and it actually suppressed the voices of thousands of people and shook the entire lecture hall slightly. The momentum was instantly interrupted.
