Unaware of the man's ability to blink to certain places in an instant, Tesuto's knees were scraped before he could dodge forward enough distance to avoid the back of his head being opened. However, he quickly returned the favour as he twirled around and sent his blade towards Garin's body at an angle, so that if a blow were to land, it would slash across his upper right torso and down to the left side of his hip.

Garin blocked the slash with both swords and parried it to the left before delivering two quick slashes to his chest and a stab to his gut.

Tesuto narrowly dodged the sudden flurry of steel as his blade was sent in the opposite direction of Garin. The man's blades cut through the air in front of Tesuto. The samurai, in response, grasped his second katana and drew it out from its sheath with his left hand, holding the massive blade in a reverse grip.

It had been a while since Garin had been in a fight, but he still knew the weaknesses of steel plating. He sheathed his right sword and drew his revolver, letting loose six explosive rounds to Tesuto's chest and head.
