"Damn...!"
Kamitachi scolded in a low voice, raised his arms, and held his beloved knife steady with both hands.
He used his willpower to forcefully suppress the fear in his heart, and the sarcastic smile appeared on his cheeks again.
——If you look like you are not afraid of death and full of fighting spirit, will your strength become stronger? I want to see what other tricks you can come up with!
In Kamamachi's eyes, Aoto and Mai Kinoshita, who were charging towards him from left to right, were actively rushing towards them to die.
——Look at me killing you all in one go!
Kamitachi slowly lowered the blade and assumed his best lower stance.
However, in the next second... No! It was at this moment! An incredible scene happened in this space and happened to Qingdeng.
Waves of invisible aura erupted from Qingden's body like exploding lava, and then pressed against Kamitachi with overwhelming force!
The sarcastic smile on Kamamitachi's face disappeared again.
At this moment, under the pressure of this invisible aura, Kamitachi felt that his heart skipped half a beat, his breathing became rapid, and his pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole, as if they were out of focus.
This feeling...this invisible aura...Kamaitachi is very familiar with it.
He often felt this invisible power from the annoying guy Rakshasa, the madman Shuten Douji, and Lord Otakemaru, which he had not been lucky enough to touch so far.
"'Position'...?"
Under the extreme shock, Kamaitachi's soul temporarily separated from the body, and the body, which lost the control of the soul, unconsciously murmured the name of this power.
As soon as this unconscious murmur fell, Kamitachi suddenly felt the light in front of him dim - a pair of pupils that seemed to have flames lodged in them were only a few feet away from him.
Qingdeng is here!
Kamaitachi, whose soul hurriedly returned to his body, instinctively swung his sword and struck at the eyes that were so close to him.
An incredible scene descended on this space again.
Kamaitachi's will and power to swing the sword had just been transferred to the blade of his favorite sword, and he was about to swing the sword out. Suddenly, as if he had predicted how and which direction he would swing the sword, Qingto turned to the left in advance.
sideways.
He dodged Kamamaitachi's blow by a hair's breadth.
The pupils of Kamaitachi's eyes once again shrank to the size of pinholes due to shock.
Kamitachi frequently showed signs of losing his composure due to excessive emotional shock...and how could Ayoto do the same?
After seeing streams of "air flow" from Kamitachi's body, a strong feeling of shock surged in Qingdeng's heart.
I saw this strange "air flow" again.
What made Qingdeng's heart beat wildly in shock was not just because he saw the strange "air flow" again. At that moment, Qingdeng's body and mind suddenly entered a strange state.
It was as if something was breaking and dissolving in his body, and then melting into his spirit.
This is an indescribable and unique feeling that cannot be described to outsiders in specific words.
At this moment, no one needed to inform him or remind him, Qingdeng knew that he had released his "power"!
Qingden clearly felt an invisible "power" rushing out of his body, pressing towards Kamitachi!
Next to her, Kinoshita Mai couldn't help but turn her face slightly, and looked at Qingteng with her wide-open beautiful eyes. Her eyes seemed to see some indescribable spectacle - she also felt the "power" suddenly released from Qingteng.
".…
Both the enemy and us, who were fighting to the death, actually showed shocked expressions at the same moment - unfortunately, this slightly funny scene did not last long.
The soul returned to the body\Kamaitachi, who was the first to recover from the shocking emotions, lifted the lower part of the sword towards Qingdeng. The chilling wind blown by the blade blew away the funny atmosphere in the air, making Qingdeng
The faces of Noboru and Mai Kinoshita returned to the serious expressions of facing a powerful enemy.
Kamaitachi and the sword in his hand started to move... and the "air currents" on his body began to shake violently.
At this moment, another strange feeling emerged from Qingdeng's heart.
It was like he was doing the instinctive action of blinking and swallowing food... After seeing the "air flow" on Kamamaita's body swaying, a thought flashed through Qingto's mind - this guy is going to chop me.
On the left side of the abdomen, you have to stand half a step to the left. It is safest to hide in this direction.
The next moment, Qing Deng's body moved according to his heart! His body instinctively followed the thought in his mind and retreated to the left, retreating to the safe area in his mind.
Immediately afterwards, Kamitachi's blade brushed past his body... Qingden's dodge distance and the strength he used when retreating were neither too much nor too little, and he just managed to avoid Kamitachi's slash.
.
Kamitachi, whose expression changed slightly, quickly adjusted the blade and delivered the second blow to Qingteng. - He wanted to cut my left shoulder... hide behind the right...
The exact same scene as before occurred - Aomori dodged Kamamaita's sword with incredibly precise movements.
Kaname Itachi's expression completely changed at this time. If he just dodged his sword, he wouldn't be surprised.
But Aoto's strange performance of being able to "predict the future", as if he knew how he would attack and dodge in advance... and he dodged so accurately, made it really difficult for Kamitachi to stay calm!
Phew! At this time, the wind was squeaking in the legs... Mai Kinoshita's legs kicked over! - Damn it! I forgot that there was someone here!
Kamitachi, who had only focused on dealing with Aoden just now, quickly leaned back and narrowly avoided Kinoshita Mai's kick.
The hard flat bottom of the clogs brushed against Kamitachi's chest... causing Kamitatsu to feel a burning pain in his chest.
"Tsk...! Damn it!" Kamitachi smacked his lips hard... He no longer had the calmness he had before.
He glanced at Mai Kinoshita beside him and then withdrew his gaze, focusing most of his attention on Qingto.
Kamaitachi's heart rang an alarm fiercely, and a hairy feeling shot up from the soles of his feet to the top of his head... His intuition told him: Compared to the girl in red who used fists and kicks, this swordsman who suddenly became quite weird was who he was now.
The enemy!
"Oooohhhhhhhh!"
Kamitachi shouted, and launched a storm-like attack on Qingden as if he didn't believe in evil. He swung his sword at high speed, and the tip of the knife fell on Qingden like raindrops in a storm.
Qingden held his breath and looked at Kamitachi...no, to be more precise, he looked at the "air flow" on Kamitatsu's body.
I was just doubtful before...but Qingden is convinced now. It is guiding me...these "air currents" are guiding him!
Guide Qingdeng to see how the enemies in front of him will attack, and guide him to respond accurately to the enemy's attacks!
Qingdeng took a deep breath and surrendered all his body and mind to these "air currents". Under the guidance of the "air currents", Qing Deng was like a dancer dancing in the storm.
He dodged left, dodged right, charged forward, and fell back... He was clearly in such a "heavy rain", but he didn't let a single raindrop touch his body...
When avoiding these raindrops, his footsteps always took the shortest and least labor-intensive path... This made his movements really like a dancer, with a different kind of rhythm.
No matter how he swung his sword, no matter how he attacked, his sword couldn't touch Qingden, who suddenly seemed to have the super power of "predicting the future"... This kind of thing was already very disturbing, but there was another one next to him who was constantly causing trouble.
Kinoshita dance.
Kinoshita Mai's fists and kicks were very powerful. Even someone as strong as Kama Itachi would not dare to let Kinoshita Mai's fists and kicks touch his body.
Therefore, Kamitachi cannot completely ignore the threat posed by Kinoshita Mai, and must devote some of his attention to keeping track of all Kinoshita Mai's movements.
If Qingden's sudden divine help made Kamitachi feel irritated and impatient, then Kinoshita Mai's troubles only contributed to the irritability and impatience in Kamitachi's heart.
The rapidly growing irritability... began to show on Kamaitachi's face.
Qingden, who was keenly aware of the irritated look on Kamitachi's eyebrows, his eyelids darkened slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he let out a sigh of relief.
——It’s not time yet…wait a little longer…wait a little longer…
As for how to defeat Kamitachi, Aoto decided before he suddenly released his "power" and saw the "air flow" from Kamitachi's body - using the "Sword of Ignorance" to give Kamitachi a fatal blow!
Qingdeng's arms could no longer support him in swinging the sword any further.
In his current physical condition, the most powerful attack Qingden can use is the thrust.
Stabbing can use the potential energy of the body to rush forward to press the weight of the body onto the tip of the knife, increasing the power of the stabbing. Therefore, compared with cutting, stabbing is a weapon for those with weak strength...for example
A more friendly trick for the elderly, children and women.
Natural Rishin-ryu's stabbing technique: Wuming Sword, which happens to be Aomori's best move.
Kinoshita Mai is responsible for the auxiliary attack, focusing on attacking Kamaita's lower body and destroying Kamaita's center of gravity. He is responsible for watching the right moment and using the Wuming Sword to give Kamaita a fatal blow - the above is the battle planned by Qingto
plan.
Kamitachi is now anxious and his mind is no longer calm... This is great news for Ayoto and Kinoshita Mai.
When engaging in a fierce fight with others, where any small mistake may lead to irreversible serious consequences, whether you can keep your mind calm - this can directly affect whether you will become a "victorious living" or a "defeated dead"
".
With the only physical strength he has left now... he can only use one or two moves of Wuming Sword at most. Whether he wins or loses depends on each of his next attacks!
In order not to waste precious energy and to increase their chances of winning as much as possible, Qingdeng did not act rashly.
He cautiously continued to dodge Kamaita's attacks, continued to weaken Kamaita's mind, and waited for the best opportunity to attack...
Qingdeng's wait was not in vain.
Kamaitachi, who was already very irritable and impatient, the irritability between his brows was getting worse at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
His anxiety finally brought him bad results! "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Kamitachi, who was in a hurry to kill Qingteng who could not be cut with any effort, took back the sword he had swung, but before he could completely adjust his posture, he impatiently slashed Qingteng with another knife.
.
His eagerness to take action... caused a flaw in his originally flawless and steady posture.
And this flaw happened to appear on Kamaitachi’s lower body!…
Following Aonto's instructions just now, Kinoshita Mai, who had been focusing on attacking Kamitachi's lower body, her beautiful eyes shined with a captivating light at this moment when she discovered that Kamitatsu had finally revealed a flaw!
Kinoshita Mai immediately spread her legs out, using her left foot as a pivot, using her belt leg to launch a sharp whip kick at the lower body of Kamitachi!
At this time, Kamitachi finally realized what a stupid mistake he had just made.
He hurriedly stepped back... Even though he avoided Kinoshita Mai's frontal attack, the hard sole of the clogs still brushed against his calf.
Kamitachi felt as if a piece of skin on his calf had been scraped off, and his whole leg was burning with pain. He hurriedly backed away, causing Kamitachi's body posture to become uncontrollably messy.
This time, Qingdeng’s eyes burst out with a captivating light!
The "air flow" on Kamaitachi's body was swaying... The guidance of the "air flow" appeared again. However, this time it was no longer guiding Qingto how to dodge.
Instead, he guided Qingdeng on how to attack!
At this moment, Qingdeng let out a brief but piercing cry from his chest - now!
In the flash of light and stone, Qingteng gathered the Dingguishen to his chest. The flat blade of the blade was pointed directly at Kamitachi's chest. His shoulders, waist, and legs...the whole body was like a spring, with Qingteng's right leg as the center."
Huddle" together.
In the next moment, this "spring" popped open!
The power accumulated in his body was released in one breath! Qingden leaped up violently. His body and his sword slammed into Kamitachi! Victory or defeat - all depended on this one move!
Qingdeng bumped into him, and pointed directly at his chest with the gleaming tip of the knife... All of this caused Kamaita's expression to change suddenly! Most of the blood on his face faded!
He was stabbed once in the chest... With such an injury, he would only have half a life left!
Kamitachi clenched his teeth and desperately raised the sword in his hand in front of the tip of Qingden's thrust, trying to deflect Qingden's blow.
——No need to worry! Kamitachi thought to himself.
——This guy's sword can't hit me at all! Although the speed and strength are sufficient, my sword speed can completely keep up with the trajectory of his sword!
——Watch me knock your sword down in mid-air!
Kamitachi, secretly feeling cruel in his heart, tightened his grip on the handle of the knife, with a fierce look in his eyes, vowing to cut off Qingden's stabbing knife!
"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah-!"
Qingdeng, who rarely made a sound in battle, rarely made a powerful Qihe sound at this moment. At this moment, Qingdeng's state of mind... was surprisingly peaceful. There were no unnecessary distractions in his mind.
There is only one thought left - defeat him!
At this critical moment, without Qingdeng's knowledge, the talent list on his personal system interface changed again.
The bits and pieces of purple light emitted by the talent entry of "Wuwang Hachiman" turned into a firefly-like light at this moment!
The sound of breaking wind that was rapidly approaching Kamamaita suddenly changed.
The tip of Ding Guishen's knife pulled out a straight line of light that seemed to penetrate the wind and everything in front of it!
This light illuminated the surrounding darkness, and also illuminated Kamaitachi's face, whose blood was rapidly fading away!
What's going on--Kamaitachi didn't even have time to question the change that happened in front of him. This light, whose speed and power suddenly increased dramatically, had already been pulled in front of him!
In this moment, it was Kamaitachi's muscle memory that saved his life.
The muscle memory cultivated through many battles activated, and the muscles reacted half a step ahead of the brain. They swung their swords towards the light in front of them, hoping to knock it down...
Bang——! The "Fire Spirit" leaped where the two swords met! This duel... was fleeting.
After only holding on for less than half a second, Kamitachi's beloved sword was heavily bounced away! The light composed of the tip or blade of Dingkijin broke through Kamitachi's defense and continued to pour into Kamitatsu's body!
Although Kamitachi's block just now failed to deflect Aoden's sword, it deflected the trajectory of Aoto's thrust.
The tip of the knife, which was originally intended to stab Kamaitachi's chest, diverted its trajectory and instead stabbed Kamaitachi's left shoulder.
Poof!
The muffled sound of skin and muscles being sliced open by a sharp blade dominated the space between Aomori and Kamitachi.
The sword of Sadikigami pierced through Kamitachi's left shoulder, and it was stabbed until the blade of Sadikijin's sword was attached to the clothes of Kamitachi's left shoulder.
The severe pain caused Kamitachi's facial features to twist together, and the thoughts in his mind suddenly became fragmented.
The offensive of Aoto and Mai Kinoshita has not stopped yet! At this time, Mai Kinoshita once again gave Aoto a valuable assist.
Bang! - Kinoshita Mai stepped forward in time at this moment, moved closer to the left side of Kamitatsu, swung her right leg and kicked Kamitatsu in the head.
The wind on her legs made Kinoshita Mai's bright red yukata "whir".
Aoto's sword was still stuck in his left shoulder. Kamaitachi, whose consciousness was in a trance due to the severe pain, faced Mai Kinoshita's pursuit, and his reaction was half a beat too slow!
The beloved sword that was deflected by the stabbing attack just now was too late to retract... too late to make any effective defense. Kamaitachi could only endure the severe pain in his left shoulder, chose "Sacrifice the small to protect the big", and bent his left arm.
Use your left arm to block Mai Kinoshita's kick.
Bang!
The muffled sound of the leg kick hitting solid flesh was heard together with the sound of bones breaking.
Kinoshita Mai's attack finally hit Kamamita's body solidly for the first time. Kamamita's entire left arm suddenly became red and swollen, and the entire left upper arm became weirdly twisted.
Injuring Kamaitachi's left arm... This was not the biggest effect of Kinoshita Mai's attack.
The greatest effect of Kinoshita Mai's attack was that it bought valuable time for Aomori to launch the next attack.
Qingdeng did not waste any effort or time to take back Dingguishen.
After inserting the Dingkishin deeply into Kamitachi's body, Qingto let go of the handle of the Dingkishin's sword, reached for his left waist, and pulled out the wakizashi that had been hanging on his left waist.
The tip of the wakizashi's sword was aimed at Kamaita's throat... He didn't use any sword skills or any special techniques. He just pierced Kamaita's vital part with the sword! He pierced Kamaita's throat!
A knife was stabbed into his left shoulder, and his left arm was severely injured while defending against Mai Kinoshita's kick just now. His current posture was in a mess... and he had no chance to block Aoden's simple and unpretentious attack.
one strike!
Kamaita's two eyes were now so wide open that their sockets seemed to burst open.
He could only watch helplessly as the tip of the wakizashi's sword gradually approached, and waves of despair and panic emerged from his eyes and cheeks.
But...at the moment when the winner should have been decided, an unexpected situation occurred that everyone present did not expect.
"Well……!"
Qingden suddenly let out a dull cry of pain and fell towards the ground, and his wakizashi, who was only 3 inches away from Kamitachi's throat, fell with him.
"Tachibana-kun!"
Like a conditioned reflex, Kinoshita Mai shouted in panic at Aomori who suddenly fell to the ground. A strong urge to find out what happened to Aomori came to Kinoshita Mai's heart...
Although she really wanted to run to Aoto's side right now... but Mai Kinoshita was not a stupid woman who couldn't see the situation clearly.
Nowadays, Kinoshita Mai can still figure out what is the most important thing.
Kinoshita Mai suppressed her worries about Aoto, quickly adjusted her posture, and once again threw a high-kick towards Kamaita's head, hoping to give Kamaita a fatal blow instead of Aoto.
Kinoshita Mai's reaction speed was not bad. She had already chased Kamitachi at the fastest speed she could achieve, but when the stone fire and lightning flashed, Kamitachi had already restored her center of gravity and recovered her body.
Body posture…
Kamitachi covered his left arm and jumped back quickly to avoid Kinoshita Mai's kick. Kinoshita Mai's toe only hit the tip of Kamitatsu's nose, scratching some of the skin on the tip of Kamitatsu's nose.
Unwilling to give up, Kinoshita Mai bit her teeth and stepped forward, intending to launch the next pursuit of Kamitachi... But Kamitachi, who had adjusted his physical condition, did not give her any chance.
Kamitachi swung his sword with one arm, struck forward with a vertical slash, and slashed towards Kinoshita Mai.
If Kinoshita Mai continues to get closer... then her Tianling Cap will be directly chopped into pieces.
Although she was very unwilling in her heart, Kinoshita Mai could only bite her clenched teeth a little tighter, change her forward thrust into a backward jump, take a step back with all her strength, and jump to Qing Qing, who was now struggling to get up.
Get next to you.
Kamitachi also took advantage of the situation and retreated more than ten steps, opening a long distance between himself and Aoto and Mai Kinoshita. "Tachibana-kun." Mai Kinoshita asked urgently in a low voice.
"What's wrong with you..." The rest of the words were stuck in Kinoshita Mai's throat.
There is no need to ask any more questions...the sight before me has already answered Kinoshita Mai.
Qingdeng, who looked in pain, used his right hand to firmly grasp his right leg that was spasming...
The pounce that I held just now when I held the Kishin in hand and slammed into Kamitachi's arms was still too forced for Qingto's current legs...
When he stabbed the wakizashi into Kamamitachi's throat, Aomori's right leg completely lost the strength to support his body.
Qingdeng felt as if his entire right leg had lost consciousness and control. Unable to maintain his body's center of gravity, Qingdeng fell heavily toward the ground...
At this moment, Qingdeng tried to stand up again, but the muscle strength in his right leg was completely exhausted and he was unable to stand up again.
No. Not only was the muscle strength of his right leg exhausted... his two arms, especially his right arm, were also spasming crazily. The intense fatigue made it difficult for Qingdeng to straighten his waist.
Perhaps due to physical exhaustion, Qingden could no longer see the "air flow" from Kamitachi's body, and the "momentum" also stopped being released.
"Ho…! Ho…! Ho…! Ho…!"
With cold sweat dripping down his face, Kamitachi was breathing heavily... He looked at his left shoulder, which was still inserted into the Jingkijin, and at his left arm, which was hanging by his side in boredom after being kicked by Kinoshita Mai to break the bone.
The Ding Guishen still inserted into his shoulder cannot be pulled out at will. If it is pulled out casually, it will easily cause massive bleeding, so he can only continue to let it be inserted into his body.
Kamitachi raised his right hand that was holding his beloved sword, and wiped the throat that was almost stabbed with the back of his hand... A chill rose from the soles of his feet, ran through his body, and finally reached the top of his head.
It was only a little bit close just now... If that guy hadn't just exhausted his strength, he would be dead now...
The cold sweat dripping down Kamamachi's face became even more intense. "I really... look down on you...!"
The cold words that reminded people of the harsh winter came out from the clenched teeth of Kamamaitachi...
Kamitachi stretched his right hand to his left shoulder, continued to hold the handle of the knife with his thumb and index finger, and freed up the other three fingers to grab the fabric of the clothes on his left shoulder. With a "hiss", he tore the upper clothes to pieces and threw them aside.
.
Under the scraps of cloth flying around, the tattoo of the wind demon Kamitachi on Kamitachi's back was revealed. "You are considered capable of forcing me to do this." "What a pity, it's only a little bit close."
It can kill me."
The sarcastic smile appeared on Kamamitachi's face once again.
Along with the sarcastic smile appeared on Kamamitachi's face... there was also strong hatred and anger.
"It hurts so much... I can't feel the whole left arm... Even if I kill you, it won't be able to relieve my hatred."
Looking at Kamitachi who was gritting his teeth and with a look of resentment on his face that was so intense that it was about to turn into reality, Mai Kinoshita pursed her lips... then silently took half a step to the left, stood in front of Qingteng, and blocked the way.
He stood between Kamitachi and Qingto, crossed his legs, and got into a fighting stance.
A hint of timidity flashed under Mai Kinoshita's beautiful eyes...but she hid this timidity very well.
She stood in front of Qing Deng very firmly, without any hesitation. It was as if she was doing something natural.
"Ji Jun, can you still move your body? If you can still move your body, leave here quickly. I will buy you time..."
Kinoshita Mai didn't have time to continue speaking... because the Kamaitachi opposite him moved!
The battle that he thought would be easily won ended up in this situation. Kamaitachi, whose chest was filled with anger, hatred, humiliation and other emotions, didn't even want to wait for one more second - he wanted these two hateful people.
The guy dies immediately!
Dragging his temporarily unusable left arm to his side, Kamitachi stomped on his feet and rushed straight towards Aoto and Mai Kinoshita like a whirlwind.
The beloved sword like a sickle was held high in the hand, and a cold blue light reflected on the faces of Qing and Deng.
Qingden, whose face darkened slightly, used the last bit of strength in his body to support his body with his left leg that could barely move. He held the only remaining weapon on his body, his wakizashi, with his left hand, and jumped onto Kinoshita Mai's side with one foot.
beside.
Without saying a word, he chose to continue fighting alongside Mai Kinoshita.
Kinoshita Mai turned her gaze sideways and looked at Qingden with complicated eyes, who did not abandon her.
The red lips were slightly open... She seemed to want to say something to Qingdeng, but she closed them as soon as she opened them.
With a special arc of joy at the corner of her mouth, Kinoshita Mai turned her gaze back to Kamitachi in front of her, holding her breath and concentrating, preparing to fight side by side with Ayoto until the end!
——Is there any other way to defeat this guy...
Until now... until he was in such a desperate situation that he could only use one hand and one leg, Qingden still didn't have any negative emotions such as annoyance or despair on his face.
But his face became more solemn and gloomy, and he was still thinking about whether there was any way to defeat Kamaitachi.
Kamaitachi had already rushed to the position where the sword in his hand could cut down the two of them.
Phew——! Kamaitachi suddenly swung down the beloved sword he held high in his hand.
The sharp and harsh sound of the wind cutting through the air as the high-speed swung blade struck Qingdeng!
Qingden used all his strength to dodge Kamamaita's blow with his remaining left leg - bang!
At the moment when Kamitachi swung down his beloved sword, Qingden suddenly heard the sound of frighteningly rapid footsteps coming from behind him.
Immediately afterwards, I felt a gust of wind passing by my ears - a brown shadow passed by Ayoto, and flashed from behind Ayoto and Kinoshita Mai to in front of them...
Then... Qingdeng's vision was filled with fluttering brown cloaks and a purple light.
This purple light waving from below collided heavily with Kamamitachi's beloved sword slashed from above in mid-air, causing a huge sound of gold and iron clashing!
"Tachibana-kun, you did a great job. Your performance far exceeded my expectations."
Qingden, who was in a daze due to too much shock, looked at this old man... the man in brown robes who was currently blocking him and Kinoshita Wu.
The man in brown robes originally had his hood tightly pulled on his head, but the headwind caused by quickly running from a distance behind Qingdeng and the others to Qingdeng was too strong, and the hood on his head was now
It was blown away by the strong headwind.
Under the hood, there was a face that was very familiar to both Qingto and Mai Kinoshita.
"Boss Kiryu...?" Qingden's lips and tongue seemed to be beyond his control. He moved on his own and softly called out the name of the man in brown robes who was standing in front of him.
I saw the man in brown robe...that is, Kiryu was holding a purple and black scabbard in his left hand, and his right hand was holding a sword with a total length of nearly 1.1 meters and a large arc.
Kiryu used the katana held upside down with his right hand to block Kamamaita's attack in mid-air.
The purple light Qingdeng saw just now... was this knife.
The blade of the sword in Kiryu's hand was obviously an ordinary steel color.
But what's weird is that under the moonlight, the blade of the knife actually reflects a purple cold light. Surprise, confusion, and daze, three emotions are beautifully mixed on Qingdeng's face.
Everything that was happening in front of him was so unbelievable that Qingdeng felt that the sensations in his body were a little strange. Everything he saw seemed blurry and farther away than before.
Boss Kiryu suddenly appeared, waving a sword with shining purple light to block Kamaita's killing blow for him and Kinoshita Mai... This was not the most shocking thing for Aonto.
What shocked Ayoto the most was the brown robe Kiryu was wearing.
Qingdeng recognized this brown robe... and would probably never forget it in his lifetime.
It was from the mysterious man wearing this brown robe that he recovered his first eternal talent: "The Eight Banners of the Immortal"!
Qingdeng had not yet recovered from the wave of "surprise" he was currently immersed in... A new wave of "surprise" hit Qingdeng again unprepared.
"Demon Sword Vairocana...?!"
The expression changes on the face of Kamitachi who suddenly encountered a sudden change were much more exciting and complex than those of Aonto and the others.
He first seemed to recognize the shining purple sword that was holding his beloved sword. A large amount of cold sweat broke out on his face, and he murmured "demon sword" dryly in his throat.
Immediately afterwards, he suddenly raised his gaze, past the "demon sword", and looked at the person holding this sword...that is, Kiryu.
His eyes, which were originally shining fiercely, suddenly became hollow and blank. He was obviously looking at Kiryu, but he didn't seem to be looking at anything.
His whole mind was floating in some terrible state.
A moment later, it was as if the "defense mechanism" in Kamaitachi's body was automatically activated. He jumped back violently, separated himself from Kiryu by more than ten steps in one breath, and then stared at Kiryu.
He made a trembling voice.
Although he had tried his best to control it, his uncontrollably trembling voice still leaked out from between his lips and teeth that seemed to be chewing through gums and blood:...
"Kuro Mamiya...! Why are you here?!"
Mamiya Kuro... Hearing this name, the surging emotions that had just been suppressed surged in Qingto's heart again.
"Kuro Mamiya...?" Qingto couldn't help repeating the name softly.
A certain string of memories popped up in his mind automatically, and then passed quickly in front of Qingto's eyes. He had heard of this name... not long ago, from Chiba Eijiro's mouth——
(If the legendary 'Ship-Slaying Swordsman' Kuro Mamiya is living in seclusion in Edo as the rumors say...then the title of 'The Strongest in Edo' will never come to me.)
The atmosphere became strange.
This space, which had just been a life-and-death fight, fell into a strangely quiet atmosphere due to Kiryu's sudden appearance.
Whether it was Kama Itachi, Aoto and Mai Kinoshita, everyone focused their eyes with different emotions on the old man who had caused this series of changes.
Kiryu ignored Kamitachi's question.
He didn't even look at Kamaitachi, who was far away from him due to his leap back just now.
With a calm expression, he quietly put the knife held upside down in his right hand back into the sheath carried by his left hand, and then lowered his body deeply...
This is Iai - the posture of drawing swords. "...Tachibana-kun."
Kiryu kept his body facing Kamitachi, turned his head slightly, and while calling Tachibana-kun's name, he raised his eyes to look at Aoden behind him.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a hint of a faint smile. "Watch it."
He said word by word to Qingdeng, who subconsciously looked at him because his name was suddenly called, "The scene that follows... not every swordsman is lucky enough to see."
After saying that, Kiryu withdrew his gaze and turned his head and gaze back to the front.
"?!"——Kamaitachi originally only had his voice trembling...but after seeing Kiryu lowering his body and assuming the posture of drawing swords, it wasn't just his voice, his lips\his hands and feet\his entire body
, all began to tremble violently!
It's like meeting your own natural enemy. It's like meeting some terrifying giant monster. It's like meeting some terrifying natural disaster that no human being can resist.
With almost no hesitation, Kamitachi raised his right foot, preparing to retreat in large strides, wanting to stay away from Kiryu. He had no intention of confronting Kiryu. To be precise...from the moment he saw Kiryu, Kamitachi
There is no fighting spirit left.
Escape! You must escape!——Kamaitachi's face was filled with the desire to escape.
Kamitachi's right foot that stepped back high touched the solid ground behind him, and just when he was about to step back with the other foot——
——Huh? Kamitachi looked at the scene in front of him blankly.
The scene before his eyes caused Kamaita to lose consciousness for a moment.
He saw a severed arm holding a sharply curved knife flying past his eyes, passing across his entire field of vision before falling towards his feet.
This hand, and the sword it held, were all too familiar to Kamaitachi. Because this was his right hand, and his favorite sword... His right arm was cut off at the elbow.
Also cut off was his entire upper body. Phew!
The sounds of flesh splitting open and the sounds of blood splattering mixed together, making Kamitachi's eardrums tingle.
There was a huge incision that seemed to be splitting Kamamachi's entire upper body into two parts, splitting all the way from Kamamachi's right thigh to his left collarbone.
Kiryu, who was standing more than ten steps away just now, was now standing in front of Kamaitachi.
He lowered his upper body, holding the shining purple sword in his right hand, and tightly grasped the scabbard on his left waist with his left hand.
He maintained the posture of drawing the sword, and the purple afterimage caused by the high-speed swing of the sword still remained on the tip of the sword in his hand.
Relying on his amazing dynamic vision, Qingdeng saw clearly what had just happened.
At that moment, Kiryu, who had lowered his center of gravity, flashed in front of Kamaita with a speed that seemed like he was teleporting, as if he was flying close to the ground, and then unsheathed his sword - with a quick strike that reached Qing Itachi.
Noboru's eyes were unable to follow the sword-drawing technique, and he cut off Kamitachi's right arm and opened a huge wound on Kamitachi's upper body.
At this moment, a string of memories popped up in Qingdeng's mind again, passing in front of his eyes——
(That’s the literal meaning. According to legend, this swordsman once rowed a small boat alone at night, sneaked under the hull of a certain Western ironclad, and then cut off the outer shell armor of the Western ironclad with a single blow.)
