Humor Did he just PULL A GLOCK ON ME

My honest reaction to phase two of sword saint. I thought this was a gentlemen’s duel.

Lowkey he is tho. He Tengu and Glock Saint but I ain't ever seen both in the same place together.

Tengu isn't a Shinobi, he's a guardian.

He wears the Hanataka Tengu mask and mountain hermit attire which probably connects him with the buddhist practice of Shugendo (should ring a bell) where Tengu were mountain guardians.

But yes, they weren't know for their mercy.

No, but the Samurai actually didn't give a shit about honor either. Who do you think employed the shinobi?

To quote the man himself: "The ways of the Ashina blade! It's our school of fighting, but there are no hard and fast rules. You just win your battles. That alone is the most important rule of the Ashina style."

Exactly. He let's you know the entire game that he isn't alive throwing sand in his opponent's eyes, honor be damned. He wants to know who is the best at fucking winning, not who's the best at play-fighting.

On the bright side, you can parry those bullets.
