As Mugen sees Flan's hand moving towards his elbow, he grins. ¨This guy might have some moves. Maybe I was wrong about him not being a badass,¨ he thinks to himself. Once Flan's right hand makes contact with his elbow, Mugen tightens the grip he has on the handle of his sword. As his left elbow would be pushed towards the outside, this would cause the right side of his body, which would be angled backwards away from Flan, to start moving forwards towards him. Mugen uses this to his advantage. As his blow is redirected and he sees Flan's hand move again, this time drawing it back towards his body, Mugen places his right foot forward and unsheathes his sword in an extremely fast and fluid motion. At the same time, he allows the right side of his body to move backwards completely, effectively creating an inverse of the position he was using to make the elbow strike; rather than his right side being away from Flan, it was now towards him. Mugen, as he unsheathes his sword, brings it down in a crescent motion, slashing through Flan's forearm as he thrusts it forward. ¨Or maybe I wasn't," he remarked snidely. After slicing through Flan's forearm, his sword would continue downwards. Mugen allows this, jabbing the sword straight down into the dirt, but keeping a firm grip on the handle. He uses it as support to deliver a dropkick to Flan as he would be reacting to the loss of his arm, lifting himself off of the ground and outstretching both feet into his chest. The force of the kick sends him flying backwards and onto his back, covered in the marijuana leaves.
