Kenshin too was starting to wonder what was occurring between Hiko and Saitoh. However, he could not bring himself to question his previous master.
On this very day that Hiko had parked himself on the nearby bench, Saitoh decided he had had enough. Saitoh felt very awkward about attacking an opponent such as Hiko...for one could say Hiko represents the perfect swordsman. Of course no one can fit that description. It should go without saying that no one toys with a wolf.
The sun was directly over the police building as it rose from the east. In the early morning hours Hiko found it tough to see into the window of Hajime Saitoh. Several more minutes passed, and Hiko looked away to give his eyes a few seconds to readjust. Just before Hiko looked back up, the wall of Saitoh's office exploded. From up above came Saitoh, along with the second stance Gatotsu.

Kenshin continued to do laundry. Sano - Gambling. Yahiko - back at the Akabeko.
...
Hiko had definitely been caught off guard. He was slightly ashamed at himself for this. He did not even have the opportunity to dodge the attack. Instead, he deflected it away with a draw of his sword, sending Saitoh beyond him into the street.
The nearby people were really surprised by what was happening. Three police officers that had been outside conversing were now staring in awe.
Hiko had no intention if killing Saitoh. The two swordsmen stood several meters away facing away from each other, and remained for several seconds. Saitoh turned his head sideways to look behind him. He saw Hiko turn around and take up the stance for Kuzu ryu sen. (Saitoh remember the spelling of that attack as well as I.) Saitoh turned, and stood silently, sword drawn. He noticed the people around him gasping. None of the nearby Tokyo police were going to do anything about the situation. A nearby child who was watching, suddenly coughed. Hiko swung the sword to the right, and secretly flipped it to attack with the dull of the blade, in the action. He charged.
Saitoh didn't move. Not at first. He had seen the nature of this attack, and only had one option. The nine point attack grew closer. Saitoh quickly took up the stance for gatotsu, which surprised Hiko even as he charged. As the attack was about to reach Saitoh, the wolf took a step back, and zero-stanced right into Hiko's attack.
Hiko came to a halt as Saitoh flew backwards. However, Saitoh remained vertical and landed on his feet, right at the foot of the original bench Hiko had been sitting on.
Saitoh's Japanese sword shattered into ten pieces. He sat down on the bench and let out a "hymph." Hiko sheathed his sword, all except for the last foot which was broken off by Saitoh's attack.
The other police had started to take action. Hiko decided things had ended better than they could have, and he left unscathed. His sword on the other hand was not useable.
