8 AP (Because the game went into the credits, I forgot to pull up the menu in time, as I usually do it after "Shinobi Execution").
It's the maximum you could have at this stage of the game.
I'd deflect his entire One Mind combo but the fourth of the fast swipes seems to only be blockable if you deflected the three hits before it. Oh well. Really love this boss as an alternative to Isshin, the Sword Saint.
Rules:
Fresh New Game
'Additional Hardships' from not carrying Kuro's Charm (increases difficulty and introduces chip damage on 'block' but not 'deflect')
Bell Demon on
No prosthetics
No combat arts
No damage or stagger taken
No dragon mask
No items/buffs

Felt too passive phase 2, but its really risky because of the fast stomp. The hitbox is massive. With jumping you can be a lot more aggressive comfortably, or maybe if you figure out the AI.
