Immediately after, I aim for the opponent and slice at him with a downward swing, I’m using the “Ninoken Tsuyoshi-Shō”. He twists his body and avoids this on as well. Though he tries to use the momentum of the evasion to attack me, I raise back my sword and use it to defend myself
Not only he avoided both of my attacks but now, my chances of losing are bigger since I also have to watch out for counterattacks.
