The two waited for the other to make the first move. It is after all, the defining factor for who will be having the advantage in the whole fight. Kojiro stills his breath, he lets the wind be his guide as he makes the first move.
There are little to no witnesses in this battle. But as for the mindset of the two, they both know that this fight will not drag out long. As they understand each other's intention to not let the other retract too much.
"Houh?"
Goumon reacted as Kojiro advanced forward with his longsword pulled back, ready for a slash.
As a response, Goumon raises his longsword upward and taunts him.
"Come on, swordsman! How about we clash blades and see if your tiny arms can hold out!"
Determined, Kojiro braced himself as he had no intention of backing down with that challenge. He breathes in more air and swings his sword upward with all his might.
"HRAAAH!!"
Goumon then does a downward slash to meet Kojiro's sword, however, Kojiro has another plan in mind.
