Sushin Battle: Saitou vs. Seiryu

Saitou charges at Seiryu with the Gatotsu. Rather foolishly, Seiryu blocks the attack with his left arm. However, Seiryu mentions to Saitou that he is the only member of the Four Gods that is able to learn the weaknesses of his opponent's techniques by just seeing them once. His left arm was the small price to pay for what he claims to be a victory. Saitou doesn't give a damn; he goes for another Gatotsu. With ease, Seiryu sidesteps to the right and slashes Saitou across the chest with his scimitar-like weapon.

Again, Saitou uses the Gatotsu, this time, winding up with a wound on his shoulder. Trying to hold back his chuckling, Seiryu suggests Saitou use another move, yet, Saitou doesn't. Again, he gets into the Gatotsu stance, but this time, with his free hand, closes shut Seiryu's mouth, then obliterates him and his weapon at zero stance.

Aoshi begins his battle with Suzaku by executing the Onmyou Kasou. To his surprise, the kodachi technique is countered by the same move. Suzaku gives off a devilish grin and boasts that he is an expert at instantly copying his opponent's techniques.
