"What do you mean by that?" Hattori Hanzo paused for a moment, unable to understand the meaning of Heisou's words. A strange smile appeared on Heisou's face, and he suddenly turned around and plunged in again.
into the cold waters of the Ganges.
Hattori Hanzo watched Kurosou disappear into the river for a long time without moving. He did not expect that Kurosou would be so cunning, turning around and running away without even making a move, even ignoring the saint Ryoko who fell into his hands.
.
"This kid is difficult to deal with!" Hattori Hanzo sighed and then suddenly realized. He thought of the simple rafts left on the river. Only then did he finally understand the true meaning of Heisou's words just now. There are more than just ways to delay time.
Limited to rescuing Saint Ryoko, destroying the raft can also prevent him and his subordinates from leaving. Once the Imperial cavalry behind them catch up, it will not be easy to escape from the Black Dragon Empire safely and return to the East Island Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Hattori Hanzo looked helplessly at the saint Ryoko at his feet. After finally snatching her back, his hands and feet were trapped. Now he had to take her on the road with him, so he lost the pursuit.
The enemy, to prevent the other party's strategic intention of destroying the raft.
It was a blessing in disguise! At this moment, after Heisou resolutely gave up the Saint Ryoko, he could focus all his energy on destroying the raft. He was like a free pufferfish in the water, spending all the Yueming family ninjas at will.
More than a hundred rafts, which took a lot of time to build, were all cut off with one knife, turned into logs and floated down the river to the distant East China Sea——
"Bastard!" Ruyue Xiaowu yelled as she hurriedly led her men back to the shore where the raft was parked. Although the men behind her were numerous and powerful, and she was good at swimming, she did not have the courage to enter the water in such a cold temperature.
To capture the pesky Damian Blackso.
"Forget it!" Ninja Master Hattori Hanzo, who quietly appeared on the scene with Saint Ryoko, said indifferently: "Let's go to land instead! This kid is insidious and cunning. He relies on his magical water ability to make trouble and wants to delay our
Time, it would be safer to take the land route instead of the water route!"
Ruyue Xiaowu frowned and said worriedly: "There is no problem in avoiding this guy Heisuo by land, but this will delay our time to go to the East China Sea, and we will soon be surrounded by the Black Dragon Empire cavalry chasing after us.
stand up!"
Hattori Hanzo sneered and said nonchalantly: "The coup in the imperial capital launched by the Steve family has not yet ended. The Black Dragon Empire cannot send too many pursuers to deal with us! According to my estimation, this one is called Black Solo.
The brat must have come alone, and the number of reinforcements he is counting on cannot be large. Our current strength should be enough to deal with them!"
"What the instructor said is absolutely true!" Ruyue Xiaowu suddenly understood and nodded with great joy and said: "The small group of pursuers poses no threat to us. With the instructor, you can personally hold the battle, even if you are facing enemy disciples three times our size.
Not worried at all, not afraid at all!"
Hattori Hanzo didn't feel any sense of pride when he heard Kisaragi Komai's flattering words. The corner of his eye slightly glanced at the Ganges River, as if he was still searching carefully for any clues about the black rope.
After nightfall, the Yueming family ninja force led by Ruyue Xiaowu came to a mountain col to set up camp. They lit fires, set up tents, and set up many open posts and hidden sentries around the perimeter to guard the area.
Kisaragi Xiaomai, Hattori Hanzo, and the two jonins of the Tsukimi family, Hiame Kanmaru and Amakusa Shiro, sat around, drinking wine to keep warm, and discussing in a low voice: "Teacher! Look, that guy named Kuroso is still there.
Are you following us secretly, waiting for an opportunity to rescue the little bitch of the Rizang family?"
Hattori Hanzo sat cross-legged, folded his hands on his chest, and replied with his eyes closed: "Yes! This kid is determined and one of the most difficult opponents I have ever encountered! You tell me to strengthen it tonight.
Be on guard, beware of this kid causing mischief at night, and take the opportunity to save people!"
"Yes!" Feiyu Xianmaru and Amakusa Shiro respectfully agreed. Kisaragi Xiaowu frowned and said angrily with great frustration: "Why does this guy Damian Blackso insist on going against us? With the strength of our Yueming family,
Isn’t it worse than the declining Rizang family?”
Hattori Hanzo opened his eyes and said indifferently: "Perhaps it was not a wise move for us to support Prime Minister Cole and the Steve family! In my opinion, this kid is a ruthless man who must avenge his revenge. Let's make a sneak attack
The Black Dragon Academy killed dozens of his guards, and this hatred has become the biggest irresolvable conflict between us!"
Ruyue Xiaowu's face turned cold when she heard this, and she said in a fierce voice full of murderous intent: "In this case, we must find a way to solve this trouble. The disciple believes that we must not only prevent Black Suo from rescuing the little bitch of the Rizang family, but also
We have to find a way to kill Heisuo! Otherwise, he will definitely continue to assist the Rizang family to fight against us and become a major headache for us!"
"That's exactly what I meant!" Hattori Hanzo nodded slightly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to have thought of an excellent way to deal with Kurosou, and Kisaragi Komai, Hiyame Kanmaru, and Amakusa, who were full of confidence in Hattori Hanzo.
Shiro and others were overjoyed when they saw this. They drank the strong wine in their glasses together and prepared for the next night operation.
At this time, on the hillside farther away, Heisuo had recalled his demon pet, the fourth-level black dragon Pramis. He knew that Kisaragi Xiaowu and Hattori Hanzo might have arranged traps to wait for him, but he had been suffering.
The reinforcements that have been waiting so hard have not yet appeared and have not arrived in time.
"Alas!" Heisuo sighed at the silent black dragon Pramis and said with a wry smile: "Tonight we two will stay up all night again. In order to delay time, we cannot let the ninjas of the Yueming family sleep peacefully.
So we have to harass them so hard that they can’t rest to buy time for the following troops to pursue them!”
The black dragon Pramis roared as a reply. It spread its huge bat wings, intending to show its power to Heisuo, to express that it had no problem and was not afraid of fatigue! Heisuo laughed very happily, and gave Heisuo a hard right.
With his feet, he leapt onto the dragon's back. Since he had the black dragon Pramis as a helper, he felt very comfortable whether it was tracking or attacking. He was no longer afraid that the number of enemies would overwhelm him and make him unable to escape.
