When the four masked men saw Yang Hui leaving, they pulled out the samurai swords hidden under their coats and tried to catch up, but they were stopped by Kaishiro Todo.
"Your Highness will not let you go when you are handed over to me."
A knight's sword is not inferior to four katana swords, and it can do so with ease.
"Sure enough! Who are you!?" After being repelled, an assassin took off his mask regardless of hiding his identity and asked Kaishiro Todo.
"..."
"Although you are using Bunitalia's knight sword, the swordsmanship you use is indeed Todo-ryu. You are at least a teacher-level master. You can easily deal with the four of us. There is only one successor of Todo-ryu who is still alive.
You can do it! Todo!"
"...Sigh." Kaishiro Todo sighed until the other party saw through his identity, and took off his mask for the first time outside the Governor's Mansion. He also understood that this was Yang Hui who led people into a deserted alley, and then led four people
The reason why he was left to deal with it alone, "Long time no see, Senbo, Bubu, Asahina, Chiba."
"It's really you! Todo-sama!" Seeing Todo Kaishiro's face, the other three couldn't care less and took off their masks excitedly.
"It's me. It's good to see that you are still alive."
"But why are you... I understand! You are an undercover agent! You have been lurking next to [Nightmare]!" Asahina, who likes to use her brain, figured out that Todo Kaishiro endured the humiliation, and did not hesitate to bear the stigma of "traitor" to lurk
By Yang Hui's side, they worked hard for the revival of Sakura Country, and then their appearance made Toudo Kaishiro suspicious of Yang Hui, with a look of pain on his face.
"Is that so? Lord Toudo? Are you the undercover agent next to [Nightmare]!?" Bubu and Chiba were also convinced by Asahina's imagination, otherwise they really couldn't understand that the [samurai born in the wrong era] could actually
Betray your own country.
Only the oldest Senbo was not excited. He also hoped that Asahina's guess was correct, but... Toudo Kaishiro's
"I'm sorry to disappoint you." Todo Kaishiro shook his head and said firmly to the four of them, "I am loyal to His Highness Yang Hui with my own will."
"Master Toudo! How could...how could you..." Hearing the truth told by Toudo Keishirou himself, Chiba and Asahina, who believed in Toudo Keishirou's divination, suffered a major blow. They were unwilling to believe it no matter what.
This is real.
"Master Toudo, why!? Where have you gone!?" Asahina, who did not want to believe the truth, was heartbroken. With his faith broken, he rushed over with a knife and slashed at Kaishiro Toudo.
But Toudo Keishirou is half of Asahina's master. Even if Asahina uses Toudou style to the extreme in a calm state, he is no match for Toudo Keishirou, let alone that he has lost his mind and his moves are a mess.
Blocking Asahina's slash, he turned sideways and made Asahina lose his balance. He hit Asahina on the back of the neck with his sword with his backhand, causing him to lose the ability to move.
"Asahina!" Seeing this, Chiba rushed forward again, but this time Bubu and Senba caught her in time and stopped her from being impulsive.
"Toudou..." Senbo looked at Toudou Keishiro with a complicated face. He was different from the other three. The older he was, he knew more about the warmth and warmth of human relationships. He could also guess the reason why Toudou Keishiro betrayed Sakura Country and pledged his allegiance to Yang Hui. Under normal circumstances,
Next, he can understand Toudo Kaishiro's choice, but at this time...
Once again standing in front of them as an enemy, Xianbo only lamented that things are unpredictable.
"Let's go together." Seeing that the three of them stopped moving, Todo Kaishiro raised his knight sword again, "Beat me, and then challenge His Highness Yang Hui, or be defeated by me."
"There is a third option, Bubu, take Chiba and go first." Senba pushed the two of them back. He knew very well that it was impossible for the three of them to defeat Toudou Kaishiro. Asahina had already been caught.
All three of them cannot be folded here.
"Xianbo! You..."
"Give up, Senba." Todo Kaishiro also saw Senba's plan, laughed and shook his head, "Why do you think His Highness chose to walk into the alley? You have no chance to do anything on the street."
"What did you say!?" The three of them were shocked, but soon realized that something was wrong. Yang Hui had been shopping leisurely, why did he suddenly walk into a deserted alley?
"Is this a trap!?"
"Yes, and no." Todo Kaishiro smiled, "His Highness does intend to lure you out, but it is also to prevent you from jumping over the wall and taking action on the street, hurting innocent civilians."
"Oh, [Nightmare] still cares about the life and death of civilians? Stop joking!" Bu Bu roared. In his opinion, the Bunitalian people are arrogant and don't care about the safety of the people of Sakura Country.
In other words, they are just a group of pigs waiting to be slaughtered, or slaves for mining.
"You don't understand His Highness at all." Todo Kaishiro shook his head. He should have had the same idea as Bubu, right?
But after getting to know him for so long, Todo Kaishiro knew that Yang Hui was a very gentle person. Yang Hui's cruelty would only treat his enemies, and even treat the enemies he recognized, and he would also give corresponding kindness and respect. To the people around him, he would
He will try his best to show his best side, treat the civilians under his rule, and do his best to protect them.
"The duty of a soldier is to obey orders, but the duty of a soldier is to protect the civilians behind him. When duty and mission conflict, what will you choose?"
This is a question that Yang Hui once asked everyone in the [Nightmare] Knights. Todo Kaishiro was very confused and didn’t know how to answer this question. Either one was right, but neither one was wrong.
The other Bunitalians, including Jeremiah, Veretta and Joan Luo, all chose their vocation and gave up their mission, and then were scolded by Yang Hui.
Todo Kaishiro asked Yang Hui on the spot, which one would he choose?
Yang Hui answered everyone without hesitation: "I will choose to kill the idiot who made me give up my mission."
Obviously, Yang Hui chose the latter and told everyone present: "If one day, I ask you to abandon your mission, then each of you has the right, even the obligation, to kill me, and then stick to your mission."
mission."
Yang Hui has never been a formalist, he has always been a person who speaks his mind. If he can say something like this, it means that he can really do it, and he will also give the people present the right to do it.
"Fudo! You..."
"It's useless to talk more. Your retreat has been blocked. You have only two choices now. Kill me and then challenge His Highness, or be defeated by me." Kaishiro Toudo didn't intend to keep Yang Hui waiting for a long time, and pointed with his knight sword.
Looking at Xianbo, Bu Bu and Qianye said.
"..." The three of them looked at each other, nodded, and then took a stance with firm eyes, ready to launch an attack.
"Very good, come on!"
"superior!"
…
Yang Hui stood at the exit on the other side of the alley, leaning against the wall and playing a mini-game on the terminal. Next to him, a dirty young man sat on the ground, covering his wrists, looking in pain.
"Your Highness." Kaishiro Todo, who put on his mask again, walked out of the dark alley.
"A bit embarrassed." Yang Hui glanced at Todo Kaishiro and said jokingly. Although he was not injured, there were a few rips in his clothes, and the skirt was soaked with sweat. It looked like he had fought hard.
"Not good at academics."
"No, on the contrary, it means that the level of your fellow disciples is not low." Yang Hui knows the level of Toudo Kaishiro, and his martial arts strength is definitely one of the pinnacles in the world. If he can make him embarrassed, it is not because he is not good, but because the other party also has real abilities.
.
"Your Highness is so complimentary." The corners of the face under the mask curled up. Didn't Yang Hui's words just recognize the strength of Senbo, Bubu, Asahina and Chiba? In this way, his idea would be easier to realize, "Your Highness
, I thought they were worthy of fighting, so I didn’t kill them, but arrested them.”
"That's your trophy, you can decide for yourself." Yang Hui said casually.
"Yes, your highness."
"Well, let's go and take him with you."
"Your Highness, who is he?" Todo Kaishiro looked at the young man on the ground with confusion. Judging from his age... he was about the same age as Yang Hui, right? His red hair was a bit conspicuous, so he must have worn a hat.
"He? A young angry young man, my trophy." Yang Hui raised the corner of his mouth.
…
Back in time, not long after Yang Hui and Todo Kaishiro separated, Yang Hui didn't go far when he saw a boy about his own age walking toward him with his hands in his pockets. The brim of his hat was so low that his face could not be seen clearly.
"Huh? Interesting." Yang Hui was stunned for a moment at first, because he had only felt the sight of four people before, which meant that the person in front of him had escaped Yang Hui's perception.
What? Just a passerby?
Are you kidding me? How could a mere passerby meet Yang Hui by chance? And he deliberately lowered the brim of his hat to cover his face. The hand in his pocket was obviously holding something, and he intentionally walked towards Yang Hui. Could he be a passerby?
Sure enough, the moment Yang Hui passed him, the young man took out the folding fruit knife in his hand and stabbed Yang Hui in the back of the heart.
But Yang Hui's hand popped out like lightning, turned around and grabbed the young man's wrist, and twisted it gently. With a "click~", the wrist was dislocated. With a scream, the knife in his hand also fell to the ground.
.
At the same time, Yang Hui also saw clearly what this person looked like.
"It's actually him? Interesting, really interesting!" Yang Hui thought as he pushed the boy with a dislocated wrist aside. From his actions just now, it can be seen that he is not a professional killer, he is too amateur and does not pose any threat.
"The job of a killer is not that simple. First of all, you have to choose a qualified weapon." Yang Hui picked up the folding fruit knife on the ground, squatted in front of the young man and said to him, "This kind of knife is easy to hold for stabbing people."
If you cut your thumb and index finger, if you hold it underhand, you will cut your little finger. I personally recommend a butterfly knife or a spring knife. If not, a utility knife is better than this."
"Tch, there's no need to be pretentious, [Nightmare], just kill me, I won't say anything." The young man turned his head and said to Yang Hui forcefully, but Yang Hui noticed the fear in his eyes.
"What's your name?" Yang Hui didn't care, but asked his name.
"..."
"Don't underestimate the intelligence network I have. It's not difficult to check your background, so if you don't tell me now, don't regret it later."
"..." The young man's eyes flickered, and after a few minutes of hesitation, he still chose to speak, "Naoto Bengyue."
