But at the end of the corridor, he saw another person.
That was Oda Nobunaga's servant Mori Ranmaru. At this time, Mori Ranmaru seemed not to look like the handsome boy he usually was. At this time, his feet were suspended, and his eyes kept emitting a faint blue light.
Seeing him, Akechi Zomasuke suddenly felt a strange deep chill deep in his heart. He could clearly see that Mori Ranmaru's arm had five long, blade-like nails extending out!
"Mori Ranmaru! I didn't expect that you, like Oda Nobunaga, have become the devil's puppet!" Akechi Zomasuke approached him cautiously, but Mori Ranmaru's face showed no expression at all, and he was approaching step by step.
Akechi Zuomasuke also showed no reaction at all.
Akechi Zomasuke knew that it would be futile to say anything to him at this time, so he stabbed Mori Ranmaru without any explanation!
But the blade was inexplicably blocked, as if something in the air had condensed his swords, and he couldn't even draw them.
Suddenly, the condensed power suddenly released! Akechi Zomasuke was shaken for a moment! Mori Ranmaru's blue eyes began to move at this time, and he moaned softly: "Ah, it's you! I
I won’t let you go! If it weren’t for you, things wouldn’t develop like this!”
After saying that, he stretched out his blade-like hands and stabbed Akechi Zomasuke fiercely!
His movements were many times faster than those of ordinary people. Even the experienced Ito-ryu master Akechi Zomasuke was scratched several times with bloodstains by his sharp claws.
A twinge of pain alerted Akechi Zomasuke! He realized that he could not catch Mori Ranmaru's movements with his own eyes!
Several more cold rays of light flashed by! Akechi Zomasuke turned around like a tanuki to avoid Mori Ranmaru's claws, but when he landed, he found a few more blood marks on his face!
Mori Ranmaru laughed evilly, and the blue energy all over his body suddenly became more dazzling! It was almost blinding!
At this moment, he rushed in front of Akechi Zomajie again, and his hands were like lightning, attacking the Zomajie Akechi up and down!
At this time, Akechi Zomasuke reacted extremely quickly, and he methodically dodged Mori Ranmaru's speed that was close to the limit one by one!
"How is it possible!" Mori Ranmaru shouted: "How can you keep up with my speed!"
Akechi Zomasuke's eyes were closed at this time. It turned out that the blue light just now made his eyes dizzy, so he simply closed his eyes!
When the situation was urgent just now, he remembered the teachings given to him by his master Ito Ittozai: "The eyes can sometimes deceive, but a swordsman's intuition cannot."
Disciples of Ito-ryu spend several hours every day practicing fighting skills in pitch-black rooms to train their intuition and instinctive reactions to danger.
Since Akechi Zomasuke served Akechi Mitsuhide, he has gradually neglected this training due to his busy military affairs. However, his skills are still there and he hastily defused Mori Ranmaru's offensive.
At this moment, Mori Ranmaru began to stop his offensive, and his seaweed-like hair suddenly stretched out! It was like a big net and it was entangled towards Akechi Zomajie!
Akechi Zomasuke's double swords were like long eyes, cutting off every inch of his hair in an instant! But Mori Ranmaru's hair seemed to have an endless life, and it immediately regenerated after being cut off!
Akechi Zomasuke relied on his intuition and the induction of air flow caused by Mori Ranmaru's fierce attack to defend against the enemy. While he was fending off the enemy with all his strength, he did not realize that there was a stream of black hair quietly approaching him on the ground under his feet.
Suddenly, several strands of seaweed-like hair suddenly protruded from the place and wrapped around Akechi Zomasuke's legs!
"Not good!" Akechi Zomajie opened his eyes suddenly. At this time, his eyes were still slightly astringent.
Those hairs seemed to be alive. Seeing that his legs were entangled, they suddenly attacked him in several directions!
Zomajie was immediately entangled tightly by the seaweed-like hair from several directions! But when he was entangled, he crossed his hands and pointed the blades of the two swords outward. When the hair suddenly pulled back towards him
When the moment came, he spun around and chopped the hair violently!
Then he chopped off the hair that bound his legs! But Mori Ranmaru suddenly pulled it away at this time! Akechi Zomasuke was dragged down in an instant!
Mori Ranmaru laughed wildly and dragged him straight into the inner hall. At this time, a familiar figure in the inner hall was facing away from him.
"My lord! I have captured Akechi Mitsuhide's general, Akechi Sama-suke!" Ranmaru Mori suddenly loosened his hair!
Akechi Zomasuke was so dizzy after being dragged that he slashed around with his sword several times in a state of confusion!
"That's great, just what I need." The demonized Oda Nobunaga suddenly suppressed the red light in his eyes, as if he was confident!
Suddenly, a burst of noise and shouts of killing came over! Oda Nobunaga tilted his head slightly and said with a sneer: "It seems that the large group of rebels outside had the courage to come in~! Mori Ranmaru
!Block them for me”
Akechi Zomasuke woke up at this time and looked at the nonchalant Oda Nobunaga. He turned around and attacked! Oda Nobunaga did not dodge and allowed his blade to penetrate his body!
A stream of black blood spurted out from Oda Nobunaga! Akechi Zomasuke was stunned: Why did you resist?
"Haha, you can stab him any way you want. Anyway, this body has been dedicated to the devil. It doesn't matter to me!" Then he ignored Akechi Zomasuke's random stabs and grabbed Akechi Zomasuke tightly with both hands, one on the left and the other on the right!
Then he threw it violently! Akechi Somaji was thrown heavily by Oda Nobunaga's strange power. The huge force made his vision go dark and he fainted.
The trembling wise soldiers outside the temple have completely overturned the charred wooden wall. They are like a group of driven poultry, slowly advancing in fear.
At this moment, a wave of blood suddenly rose from the Mingzhi army! I saw a blue light moving freely through the dark Mingzhi army! Wherever the blue light went, large areas of soldiers were cut and covered in blood.
He fell stiffly to the ground!
Akechi Mitsuhide, who was personally commanding outside the temple, was shocked when he saw this scene and quickly ordered the soldiers in the back row to fire arrows!
"But, Your Excellency! Such words will hurt one of our own!" Saito Rei, his retainer, whispered.
"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and fire the arrow!" Akechi Mitsuhide ordered angrily again. The soldiers in the back row had no choice but to harden their hearts and shoot forward!
Only a few soldiers of the Mingzhi Army were shot to death and wounded by their own arrows, and many people saw this and quickly hid on the ground to avoid the arrows.
The blue light suddenly stopped. Mori Ranmaru was hit by several arrows. He glared at Akechi Mitsuhide! Suddenly he changed direction and rushed towards the main formation outside the temple!
Akechi Mitsuhide was so frightened that he dodged and fell from his horse. Fortunately, the generals around him gathered around him in time and used their spears to force Mori Ranmaru back.
At this time, Akechi Mitsuhide's iron artillery team arrived. He covered his cheek that was bleeding from the fall and shouted: "Shoot quickly! Shoot quickly!"
Mori Ranmaru began to move slower and slower under the rain! In the end, he finally stopped moving, and his body was covered with scars left by lead. Although his body was protected by a thin layer of blue light, he was still
It cannot withstand powerful attacks like iron cannons.
At this time, the blue light in his eyes began to dim, and the blue light on his body began to become vague. His suspended feet began to gradually fall to the ground.
Suddenly, someone slashed from behind with a knife! Straight into Mori Ranmaru's back! The knife was so cruel and fierce! It directly penetrated Mori Ranmaru's blue light protection and penetrated deeply into his body!
Mori Ranmaru raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar! I saw the blue energy being peeled away from his body bit by bit! His appearance also began to return to its original appearance. In the end, Mori Ranmaru, whose face was pale, suddenly became dim and his body was like cotton.
Usually he fell down easily.
"These evil spirits!" Mitsuhide Akechi let out a long sigh of relief with lingering fear, and nodded approvingly to the retainer Akechi Senbei who succeeded in the sneak attack: "Well done! Rush in with your troops and kill the big devil Oda Nobunaga.
