Aoto and others, forced to retreat by Chiba Daisaburo's Big Windmill, happened to line up in a straight line.
"Hey... if this keeps going, we might lose."
Hijikata wiped away the sweat about to drip from his chin with the back of his left hand, and in a low voice that only they could hear, he spoke.
"Let's work together."
"Asheng, you attack from the left, I'll attack from the right, force this guy to make a mistake."
"Tachibana and Toshisuke, you two with fast footwork, seize the moment, and as soon as you see this guy make a mistake, strike at the bowl on his head."
The task division by Hijikata was simple and clear.
At this stage, compared to charging mindlessly, dividing work based on each person's personality and favored battle strategy is undoubtedly much more efficient.
Therefore, without overthinking, Aoto, Toshisuke, and Kondo nodded in agreement.
Kondo and Hijikata moved first.
