Chapter 2051: Unparalleled in the world with a false reputation
After cleaning up the black smoke-like metamorphosis, the pungent smell of blood was finally no longer in the air.
But - no one was in a calm mood.
Although it is said that no member died or left the stage, the current situation...
"We must never ignore death. Even if we can only save one person - we have to save him."
In the somewhat silent atmosphere, Fujimaru Ritsuka clenched his fists, and there was anger in his voice.
Heroic Swordsman, this disgusting creature—what do you think of human life?
"Let's go to the back mountain to find them now!"
The blood moon in the sky has not yet set, indicating that the heroic swordsman has not gone far, or that he has deliberately not left.
"...Don't be impulsive."
Samura reached out his hand and grabbed Miyamoto Musashi's shoulder.
"There is not much smell left in the air. Since the blood moon has not set, it means they deliberately left this stall for us."
"If we catch up immediately, we will play into their hands. For the sake of the people in the village, we cannot catch up."
Qianzi Muramasa took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and exhaled slowly and heavily through his nose.
It could be seen that he was extremely anxious, but he was also forcing himself to calm down.
"Those two guys said they were in the back mountain, right?"
"Then let's go. We can't let them hold the life and death of the villagers in their hands."
"No time waits for us, hurry up and clean up!"
With that said, Muramasa walked into the house.
Others also filed in behind Qianzi Muramasa, discussing what to do next.
Only Samura and Musashi stayed outside.
"Musashi, this is a fight to the death."
Zuo Cun's face was serious.
"I understand, so... Mr. Samura, please let me deal with Minamoto no Yorimitsu when we get to the back mountain."
"The distance between An Gang in her hand is a bit difficult to control - but compared to evil spirits, I am still better at fighting humans."
"We are fighting to bring the villagers out. This is a battle to prove our dignity as warriors... No matter what, we can't let ourselves bear the shame, can we?"
Facing Musashi's words, Samura just sighed.
"I understand, but the situation at the time didn't allow it... You have to be careful, your sword is not stable enough. The most important thing to pay attention to in the duel with Lai Guang is the opponent's strength."
Zuo Cun's eyes were serious.
"Even a casual blow from Raimitsu's power is heavier than a full blow from a samurai who used the famously heavy Shinto Muken-ryu swordsmanship that I have fought against. She seems to be a born monster."
"Keep your distance and focus on free fighting. Once you find a gap in defense, don't hesitate and swing your sword with all your strength. Only in that way can you have a chance of victory."
"Shinmen Musashi and Fujiwara Genshin...my reputation as the unparalleled one in the world is just a waste of time. You must be stronger than me, so...don't lose."
Zuo Cun rubbed his fingers slightly on the handle of his knife and said seriously.
"I won't lose."
Musashi smiled.
"No matter what kind of opponent I face - I, Musashi, will never show weakness!"
"On the other hand, Zuocun, you also have some confidence in yourself."
"You are unparalleled in the world, so you won't have a wasted reputation!"
With that said, she walked into the room, leaving Zuocun shaking his head slightly.
He knows very well what his level is...
They are just some moves that are used as a cheating method - definitely not the orthodoxy of kendo.
.......
The blood moon finally set, and it seemed that Minamoto no Yorimitsu and Shuten Doji finally chose to have some quiet time.
They did not choose to capture all the people in the village. It would be more straightforward to kill them all. They...
They just arrested a few children.
Originally, they approached Ah Xiong and Tiansuke with the intention of arresting Ah Xiong and Tiansuke together, but Zuo Cun's sense of malice noticed in advance that they were about to take action, and at the last moment he narrowly saved Ah Xiong.
, so that Ah Xiu did not become the hostage of the evil ghost.
How to deal with the captured hostages——
Don't even think about it.
In fact, just kill it.
If we don’t know whether the hostage is still alive, it’s in our best interest, right?
As long as you fool around a little bit, things will definitely develop smoothly.
This is normal practice.
but--
The so-called "routine" here is just the way it is done when the target is a human being.
Object - what is its identity?
Well, too.
To be honest, the heroic swordsman does not have the ability to discern the truth of things.
"So, whether to kill or not is irrelevant, right?"
Minamoto Noraimitsu looked at the unconscious children with anger and impatience in his eyes.
"We don't need logic to do things. We just need to dedicate everything to fighting fiercely, right?"
But regarding this matter, Shuten Doji held a different opinion.
"Having said that, Black Rope - do you still remember what Mr. Limbo said?"
The evil ghost stopped the ghost killer from killing the children.
"We have to target the opponent's weaknesses—that's why we do this."
"Just one or two humans is nothing, so——"
She looked like she wanted to do it herself, with a sick smile on her face.
The evil ghost's compromise was never because she had good intentions - it was just because she longed for blood to be produced by herself.
"Don't feel any pain?"
"This world is originally a dream, so - I can only do whatever I want as if it were a dream."
"Children being eaten by evil spirits in the mountains at night is just part of the dream. Just treat it as... a nightmare, how about it?"
"Then, I'm about to move—"
Zheng——
Opening his mouth, revealing his sharp canine teeth, Shuten Doji found what was standing in front of him——
It was the boy Kiriyatsuna who once chopped off his own head.
"What's wrong?"
"This sword is very dangerous...Miss Black Rope Hell, do you want to chop off my head again?"
"If you dare to speak, I will kill you."
Black Rope Jigoku Minamoto Norimitsu looked down at Shuten Doji with a ferocious look in his eyes.
Why take action——
Obviously killing these children is the best choice——
Although he couldn't figure out the answers to these questions, Minamoto no Yorimitsu pulled out his boy Kiriyatsuna and put it on Shuten Doji's neck.
"Hey - why is this like this?"
Shuten Doji had a dissatisfied expression on his face.
"I don't know, but I've never heard you say it."
"I didn't expect that you would want to protect these children?"
