Chapter 321 The mysterious president of the Black Dragon Society
Change first, then change. Two of the Koga Sannin are here, and even the "Kage-level" ninja Kato Danzo, who has been missing from the world for a long time, is here. This lineup is enough to assassinate any daimyo of Yamagakure...
Coupled with the troops that may be blocking the main road, it can be said that the Takeda shogunate is bound to win this time.
Unfortunately, they misjudged the strength of Su Lun and others.
Or in other words, I never expected that there would be such a variable around the divinely clothed Miko, a Senjou who could tame the demon sword Munamasa, and a Suellen.
Su Lun ran, thinking about the stakes along the way.
A contemporary Saio's princess has almost nothing to do with the inheritance of imperial power. So why Takeda Nobuno went to such great lengths to kill her was probably because of the "Black Sun Festival".
Su Lun was also curious about what kind of "role" Miko would play in the sacrifice, so that the shogunate would have to kill her?
Over there, the battlefield between Senjo and "Shadow Buddha" Kato Danzo was not even qualified for jounin to intervene, so when Su Lun ran away, almost all the Koka ninjas were chasing after him.
In fact, it's not for him.
It's because of the "god-wearing royal child" who follows him.
The target is there, and those people will naturally pursue it.
However, if you take a closer look, the look in the eyes of the "royal son" next to Su Lun is slightly stiff.
There was a constant "bang bang" sound behind me.
Various projectiles, ninja darts, kunai, and flying needles passed by.
Although ninjas like Yamagakure do not have advanced firearms, they do have strange fire skills.
Even though these firearms that fire ammunition that takes half a minute to load are very backward, their power is not small at all. The burning of secret gunpowder will produce poisonous smoke and some special shrapnel, and the lethality is no worse than grenades.
Thanks to Su Lun's rough skin and thick flesh, these shrapnel could not break through his [Rune King Kong] body protection.
There are death birds sharing the view in the sky, so Su Lun is not worried about being surrounded.
He kept changing directions in the jungle and could always avoid the enemy's encirclement.
But it was also full of dangers, and I was almost overtaken by the enemy several times.
actually.
Su Lun didn't have a chance to get rid of the pursuers behind him.
After he advanced, the cursed characteristics of the eight-armed spider spear were also enhanced, and now his ability to move mountains has also been greatly improved, and his speed is not inferior to those of ninjas who are good at various escape techniques.
What's more, there is also spatial displacement.
He didn't try his best to escape, just because he deliberately wanted to give the pursuers behind him some illusion, so that they thought they could catch up.
After all, in Plan B, he, who is good at strategic retreats, is just the "bait".
Because, the "god-wearing royal child" around him is also fake!
It was an illusion created by a life-size puppet and [Robert's monocle]
After getting along day and night these days, Su Lun naturally knew the appearance and figure of Mitsuo Mitsuko very clearly, so the transformed appearance could naturally look real.
What's more, the puppet also has a "substitute paper man" with Miko on it, and its aura makes it difficult for perception-based ninjas to tell the real thing from the fake one.
As for the real body, he had already taken advantage of the chaos to hide in the previous melee.
The longer Su Lun holds off his pursuers, the more time Miko will have to escape.
But after all, it was fake. After crawling for a while, the truth was revealed.
The pursuers were numerous and powerful. No matter how careful Su Lun was, he could not take care of himself, but he could not take care of his "royal son".
The methods of the two special jounin were not simple. They seemed to have noticed something fishy and tried many times. Finally, the "Ghost Hand" Ueno Sasaki blew a ventilation spell randomly, and "Miko" was unable to avoid it and was cut off.
One leg.
Seeing "Miko"'s broken leg with blood gushing like a fountain, "Sakurahime" Kaoru Kobe, who is good at illusions, finally saw the problem and shouted: "Damn it, I fell into a trap! That's an illusion!"
Upon hearing this, dozens of ninjas stood stunned on the spot.
There was a suffocating awkward atmosphere in the air, as if a flock of crows were flying by.
Well there is indeed a black crow.
When Su Lun heard that his plan was revealed, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. It was clear that the illusion of him spurting blood was quite real, but he didn't know how he was discovered.
However, after delaying it for so long, it was enough.
Calculating the time is almost the same, Miko should be safe now.
In the current situation, these Koga ninjas are now in a dilemma.
With the target gone, there was no point in them continuing to chase Su Lun.
But it seems that there is not much point in going back.
The little old man Sasaki made a quick decision and shouted softly: "Xun, take someone back to find someone! I'll kill him!"
Kaoru Kobe thought of his previous experience of briefly fighting Su Lun in the Sword Forging Village, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
She knew that the guy in front of her didn't look too strong, but his methods were very evil.
It seems to be more powerful now than before.
But now was not the time to say more, she shouted softly: "Yes! Senior, be careful."
After saying that, she turned around and chased the people back towards the original road.
In the blink of an eye, the old man with rosacea was the only one left among the dozens of Koga ninjas.
The enemy no longer had the numerical advantage, and Su Lun's pressure was suddenly gone.
The guy in front of me is good at wind ninjutsu and can run very fast. He is also one of the three ninjas, and his combat effectiveness is at the level of a fifth-level professional.
Normally, Su Lun's safest response at the moment is to run away with all his strength.
With his spatial displacement ability, it's not difficult to escape.
However, after hesitating for a moment, he stopped.
Su Lun thought of the previous scene where Senjo faced Kato Danzo.
Even when facing an enemy stronger than herself, she remains fearless.
Only when you face adversity in life can you feel the pressure to transform.
It's like a famous saying in alchemy: Fire sees gold.
Su Lun knew this was what he lacked.
His personality is too cautious and steady, but he lacks a bit of "spirit".
Thinking of this, Su Lun looked at the old ninja man in front of him.
He has never faced a strong person of this level alone, and he has no confidence.
If you fight, you may not lose.
But if he avoids fighting, he will definitely not be able to "win".
With this thought, the fighting spirit emerged.
The moment Su Lun decided to stay, he felt the real sense of oppression from the old man in front of him.
This is a sense of crisis that I have never felt at all after pursuing it for so long.
The murderous aura makes his hair stand on end.
seems like a long time
I no longer feel the feeling of swords dancing.
Su Lun felt inexplicably familiar.
His body was very happy with this feeling and became faintly excited.
"hey-hey"
Su Lun grinned, with a sinister smile on his lips.
Sasaki, who was opposite him, was a little surprised when he saw Su Lun standing there, and snorted coldly.
Looking again, there was wind under his feet, and his whole person turned into a mass of shadows, rushing towards him.
Su Lun led the people into the dense forest, suddenly raised his hand and lifted the chessboard, and a beam of light enveloped Sasaki.
Looking again, the surrounding area has turned into a black and white chessboard space.
Since you have decided to have a good fight, then don’t let the outside world disturb you.
Seeing himself trapped in the chessboard space, Sasaki's eyes turned cold, but he was not panicking.
"Ninja Technique·Wind Barrier Barrier!"
"Mysterious Puppet Theater!"
Both parties did not show weakness and formed seals at the same time.
Just when the alchemy array lit up and a huge cross slowly formed in the sky, Su Lun felt that the air around his body was as thick as asphalt.
Moreover, it is still solidifying rapidly!
This made him move his hands and feet, and his body seemed to be bound by a thousand pounds of strength.
"Scope control? What a clever response!"
Su Lun's eyes flashed sharply.
Sasaki looked at the restricted space and also used range-controlled ninjutsu. In this way, neither side really knew who would take advantage.
Su Lun didn't panic at all, he raised his hand [Rune Human Leather Umbrella] and held it up with a bang, and the double surgeon's seal changed again.
But at this moment, Sasaki didn't give him a chance to form a seal at all, and his figure flashed several times and was approaching. The steel claws in his hand flashed with cold light, and he grabbed it.
The sharp edge was so powerful that Su Lun quickly flashed and retreated several meters. In front of his eyes, he saw the afterimage in front of him being clawed into several pieces.
"wrong!"
Although Su Lun dodged the blow, at this moment, the hairs on his back suddenly exploded.
Vision can be deceived, but in his soul's perception, he clearly sensed that the old man in front of him was just a shadow!
Even without turning around, he clearly knew that the guy was behind him.
“So fast!”
Su Lun's heart trembled.
[Flash] can quickly avoid danger, but it does not mean that there is no time interval. The enemy just grasped this point and calculated that one hit would miss, and then launched a series of killing moves.
This technique is a very clever "secondary false flash" in ninjutsu!
The pressure on his back was like a mountain falling, and Su Lun instantly felt the danger of death.
When encountering such a real master, even if you have all kinds of means, the threat is limited.
Because, the other party will not let you release it at all!
Su Lun originally wanted to use the rune black umbrella to peel off the opponent's perception, but he didn't expect that he would be hit hard before the Warlock Seal in his hand was formed.
He captured the opponent's hand, but his body had no time to react, so he had to change his handprint, "Puppet substitute!"
At the next door, a subtle cutting sound was heard, and "Su Lun"'s body was suddenly cut into three sections by sharp steel claws.
The opponent's two attacks destroyed both of his life-saving means.
But almost at the same time, Su Lun's expression changed again a few meters away, because at this time, he saw a second "Sasaki" suddenly appeared next to him!
There is no soul fluctuation, only "qi".
"Kazekage clone!"
Su Lun immediately realized something. This old man was indeed a top-notch killer. He was killing one after another.
However, when he discovered it, the clone had already launched an attack.
These three sure-kill moves actually lasted only one or two seconds, leaving no time for people to react!
At this extremely critical moment, Su Lun tugged with his five fingers, and several threads suddenly condensed, pulling his body away a little.
But even so, that slap still hit him on the back.
"crunch"
There was a harsh sound like a metal broach cutting, and Su Lun flew backwards.
Although this grab did not break the defense of [Rune King Kong], the huge force penetrated into his heart, and the impact made his energy and blood surge.
I couldn't help but a mouthful of blood spurted out during the inverted flight.
"The main body is too weak."
After facing a real master, Su Lun deeply understood his own shortcomings.
The nervous response is sufficient, but the physical response is completely unable to keep up.
I thought he was physically strong among the Puppet Masters, but now I see that he is still far behind compared to the masters of Zhenzhen.
The majestic puppet master didn't even use a puppet and was almost killed.
Thanks to his many ways to save his life, an ordinary puppet master, even a fifth-level puppet master, would have already captured the souls of the dead at this moment.
As soon as Su Lun's thoughts flashed in his mind, his body flew out.
At this moment, with the force of flying upside down, he finally pulled out three puppets in the air and protected them around him.
This is a rune puppet that was processed after advancing to the fourth level, and barely has the fourth level combat power.
Against such agile opponents, low-level puppet tactics will not have any advantage at all. Even if the mechanical armor is taken out, it will not be of much use other than being passively beaten!
For a moment, Su Lun's mind started to spin with tactics.
Seeing Su Lun evade three killing moves in succession, "Ghost Hand" Sasaki was also surprised. As an assassin for many years, he had killed too many enemies stronger than the person in front of him with this hand, but this person actually escaped?
The high burst of physical skills puts a heavy burden on the body. Sasaki used the "Second False Flash" and was unable to use the three consecutive killing moves just now in a short period of time.
But his movements only stopped for a moment, and his whole person disappeared in an instant like a wisp of breeze.
Su Lun looked at the scattered light and shadow in front of him, and the eight-armed spider spear behind him suddenly tugged, "Secret method of controlling silk - Flower Waterfall!"
In an instant, silk threads like a white waterfall suddenly condensed and surrounded him tightly.
This move is for defense, but it also traps people!
But since he reacted so quickly, the figure still rushed in.
"crunch"
There was another harsh sound of metal cracking.
Before Su Lun could avoid it, he felt a burning pain in his chest.
Although the steel claws wrapped in a cutting cyclone did not cut him into several pieces, they also left three visible blood stains on his golden skin.
"This steel claw is also a famous ninja weapon!"
A thought flashed through Su Lun's mind. He endured the severe pain and pulled the thread violently, but when he looked again, he saw that Sasaki suddenly dropped two smoke bombs and the person had disappeared.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Two explosions.
Purple poisonous smoke filled the air instantly.
Su Lun put a crow's mouth on himself, and in order to make the other party feel less uncomfortable, he also threw two poison gas bombs.
The sound of "hissing" gas leakage was endless, and in an instant, the huge chessboard space was covered in purple and black smoke.
The opponent made no movement, and was obviously using his ultimate move again.
Su Lun did not dare to waste any time, and the Warlock Seal in his hand condensed and changed rapidly.
He doesn't think that the opponent will not be able to capture his position if he loses his vision! This top-notch ninja has the sense of hearing and smell, and the ruins
You must peel off this guy's perception before you can have a chance of winning!
Only the Rune Black Umbrella can be used.
This was the only feasible tactic Su Lun could think of.
Otherwise, even if he takes out his biggest trump card [Hypnos's Black Scythe of Night], it won't change anything!
Su Lun was condensing the handprints of the spell to be cast, so the other party would naturally not be here either.
Suddenly, I heard howling like ghosts and wolves all around.
"Is it really a range-based wind spell?"
Su Lun's face was very solemn, but he was not surprised at all.
Wind-based ninja techniques in confined spaces are simply unavoidable!
If he were Na Sasaki, he would naturally choose to use this method.
"Ninpo Technique: Yamahao Porcupine Technique!"
Su Lun continued to hold the Warlock Seal in his hand, but at this moment, he suddenly felt countless wind blades cutting through him.
Even though there was a waterfall of hair woven into a wall around him, it was like paper in front of the wind blade, and was crushed into pieces in the blink of an eye.
“Great cutting ability”
Su Lun felt the line wall being cut instantly, and sighed in his heart.
This is much better than the "wind element cutting" he knows.
The wind blade also rushed in through the gap in the silk thread, and "scratched" Su Lun's body with a sharp sound that made people's scalp numb.
He looked through the gap and saw a strange wild boar monster's head appearing in the sky, faintly threatening to blow away the cross of his puppet theater!
This is a level suppression of the technique.
Severe pain hit Su Lun, and his whole body felt like countless steel knives scraping his bones. He gritted his teeth and chose to resist the technique.
Without the "Golden Dragon Pattern" engraved in the past two days, even the [Vajra] secret method condensed by the fifth-order law cannot survive.
But the wind seemed to be endless, with no intention of letting up.
Just when Su Lun felt that he was about to be "Ling Chi" after collapse, the last warlock seal in his hand was successfully condensed.
If he was interrupted again this time, he would have to run away immediately!
Fortunately, as soon as this complex set of warlock seals was formed, Su Lun's momentum suddenly increased. The shadow of the god of death suddenly rose up behind him, and the breath of death swept through the entire space like a tide. He said in a low voice, "Dark Realm
·Night!”
Once this technique was completed, with the black umbrella beside him as the center, an asphalt-like black tide swept across the entire chessboard space.
Countless evil spirits with ferocious faces rushed toward the one hiding in the wind not far away.
Within a restricted space, range attacks are also unavoidable.
As night fell, Sasaki suddenly felt like he had lost his vision. Not only was his vision stripped away, but his hearing and touch were also gone.
He couldn't even feel his body or the presence of the wind.
It was as if he had stepped into hell, and countless demons at his feet were stretching out their hands to drag him down into the endless abyss.
Sasaki was shocked.
A person who might become a "special jounin" would naturally have received all kinds of rigorous training. When he was controlled by this kind of spirit, he bit his tongue violently one by one, and his perception became clear in an instant.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he spurted out a mouthful of scarlet blood, took out a Ninjutsu scroll and crushed it. Before his five senses were deprived again, he made sword fingers with both hands and shouted: "Psychic Technique: Wind God Ichimokuren!"
As soon as this ninjutsu came out, a strong wind blew up in the enclosed chessboard space.
Su Lun's balls immediately ached.
Because he felt the will of God again.
Although very weak, he is real.
Needless to say, the guy opposite must have summoned some "monster" or "god" that is condensed with the power of faith.
(PS. There are hundreds of thousands of gods in Shanyin, not gods)
Sure enough, when he looked again, the strong wind was blowing sand and rocks, and the poisonous gas was sucked in. His vision was clear, and then a wind whirlpool quickly formed.
The wind whirlpool in the sky grew larger visibly to the naked eye, and then turned into a terrifying eye nearly ten meters in diameter.
He opened his left eye, flickered the light, and looked over.
[Wind God Ichimokuren]
Detailed explanation: One of the thousands of gods condensed in Shanyin's faith, he is the god of wind. He can use the wind as his eyes to perceive the shape of objects; he is afraid of the aura of calamus.
When Su Lun saw this situation, he breathed a sigh of relief.
If his will wasn't too strong, he would have released the spell and escaped long ago.
Many of the "mountain gods and water gods" in Shanyin are not true gods. They are almost "special monsters", but they have some strange abilities and weaknesses.
Except for onmyojis and shrine maidens who are proficient in ghost ways, few people know about those weaknesses, especially people other than Yamagakure.
But Su Lun has the eye of omniscience.
He looked at the identified information and felt happy in his heart. There was a lot of material given to him by Yuzi before, so there was only a lot of "薆莆" left.
Moreover, he also keenly grasped that "wind" can only perceive solid objects!
Sasaki's eyes were dull and his pupils could not focus. He looked at his body and was indeed affected by the "night field".
But this guy didn't know what method he used to regain control of his body. The moment he channeled the eye of the sky, his momentum surged by several percent, and without any hesitation, he rushed towards Su Lun.
Su Lun had time to breathe and dodge to avoid it.
At this moment of spatial displacement, several spatial scrolls exploded simultaneously in the chessboard space, and hundreds of puppets appeared out of thin air.
Humanoid objects are everywhere.
At this moment, Sasaki suddenly froze, obviously unable to tell where the target was.
Su Lun was delighted when he saw this, "It is indeed right!"
At this moment, he finally saw the possibility of defeating his enemy.
Sasaki didn't know why so many "people" suddenly appeared, but he didn't stop moving his hands. He made a ninjutsu seal: "Ninjutsu: Peacock Dance!"
As soon as this mark was completed, dense wind blades like peacock feathers condensed behind him. He pointed forward and flew towards the humanoid objects filling the space like darts.
The ranged attack instantly cut through the group of puppets. Unfortunately, without hearing and vision, even if the wind blade hit Su Lun, Sasaki would have difficulty distinguishing which one was the main body.
Su Lun would not give him a chance to tell the difference. Every time he flashed, a bunch of puppets would appear at the same time.
What's more, even range ninjutsu has a priority.
Unable to capture Su Lun's true body, and attacking hundreds of targets at the same time, the injuries were not painful at all.
Su Lun hid in the pile of puppets and began to fight back
After a hard fight for more than half an hour, the outcome of the battle was decided.
"Ghost Hand" Ueno Sasaki, one of the Koka Sannin, died on the spot.
But it is undeniable that this guy is really strong.
After the special channeling of the [Wind God Ichimokuren], this guy's wind release ninjutsu became even more ridiculously powerful.
Even though his five senses were stripped away by Su Lun, his fighting power is still very strong.
He is thoughtful, has rich combat experience, and knows all kinds of tactics to lure the enemy. If he seizes the slightest opportunity, he will deliver a fatal blow.
Under normal circumstances, even if a fifth-level professional encountered him, few would survive.
Unfortunately, after Su Lun stripped away his emotions, he was as calm as a machine.
He is the kind of person who never makes any mistakes in battle!
From the moment Sasaki couldn't distinguish his true form, the outcome of the battle was actually doomed.
No matter how strong we are, human physical strength is limited.
Su Lun didn't rush to take action, nor did he touch him head-on. He just used various puppets and living corpses to consume him, without giving him a chance to breathe.
怆愯瘽璇达纴鐩铓嶆湕畇簲扉涔︽涶濂界敤镄刟pp锛屽挭鍜阒呰hurt
The two battled wits and courage, and after several trials, Sasaki met an opponent who could make no mistakes at all, and finally exhausted himself.
Su Lun killed him with a black sickle
Su Lun looked at the messy chessboard space, then looked at the two corpses on the ground, and sighed: "It's so strong."
Hundreds of puppets were lost and he suffered wounds all over before he was killed in a thrilling manner.
This is also the first time that he has killed a fifth-level combatant by himself.
This battle can be said to have been fought with all possible means, and thanks to the numerous cursed objects, we were able to win by luck.
If we really want to fight head-on, Su Lun is still far away.
But for an alchemist, there is nothing shameful about it.
Making good use of cursed objects is also an alchemist's combat effectiveness.
This battle has yielded great rewards.
However, shortcomings were also exposed.
Dark spiritual power is not enough
Not enough defense
The body's reaction is not enough
"Basic attacks" are not lethal enough
When a puppeteer faces a professional who can stand out, his life-saving measures are not enough.
For a moment, the scene of the battle just flashed through Su Lun's mind, and he was fully aware of his shortcomings.
Fortunately, the shortcomings are known, and there are directions for growth in the future.
But now was not the time to review the battle, so he calmed down and peeled off the gray mist from the corpse.
"You peeled off the soul of 'Ueno Sasaki', and you gained a lot of inherited knowledge of 'Ninjutsu'"
"You have understood the techniques related to 'Wind Escape'"
"You have gained knowledge and insights related to the 'Shanyin Shinto'"
"You know some top-secret information: 'The Black Dragon will have a very mysterious president.'"
「」
Su Lun originally thought that he could peel off some profound "understanding of the law of wind element".
But obviously, he thought too much.
The ninjas of Yamagakure are also believers of God, and their ninjutsu only has a few magic formulas and ninjutsu seals, which are much simpler than the process of casting spells by alchemists. But it is so "rough" that it produces incredible effects.
The reason is that it is the power of the blessing of the god system that he believes in.
Through this separation, Su Lun also understood the entire ninjutsu system, most of which did not understand its rationale, but only talked about its uses.
I don't know the principle, but as an alchemist, he has very few ninjutsu.
Even if there are a few who can use it, their power is far inferior to that of ninjas.
However, some experiences are clear and can be considered as rewarding.
Moreover, Su Lun also obtained a piece of explosive information from Sasaki's memory: the president of the Black Dragon Society is actually Mitate Yahime, who is known as "the most beautiful girl in the world"?!
This is completely connected with what Senjou and the others had guessed before.
When the assassination attempt failed, a "mysterious man" appeared behind Shogun Nobuno Takeda to turn the tide.
Now that the Black Dragon Society is actually controlled by this "Ye Ji", everything makes sense.
But how could a geisha become the boss of the Black Dragon Society?
Moreover, it seems to have a close relationship with the Takeda Shogunate!
Why should she?
After hiding for so many years without being discovered, what is she planning?
Su Lun had too many doubts and didn't think about it in detail.
The answer can only be found in Edo.
As soon as the chessboard space was solved, he quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests.
