Chapter 135 Qingdeng Kinoshita Mai vs. Fire Rogue Kai【6500】
While Aoto was fighting the red-faced brothers and others, Kinoshita Mai also fought against Kametaro, Tsuruzaburo, and Toagoro who were sent by Kojiro to deal with her.
While Kametaro was babbling and making a very non-standard kiai, he ran up to Kinoshita Mai with his sword, and without any mercy, he raised the sword and struck Kinoshita Mai's vital part.
When the sharp blade was only a short distance away from Kinoshita Mai, Kinoshita took a deep breath and turned her body to the left.
The dodge distance was neither too much nor too little, just enough to avoid Kametaro's blow, and the blade of the blade flew close to Kinoshita Mai's body.
At the moment when Kametaro's old strength had been released but his new strength had not yet been generated, and before he could retract the slashed sword and reorganize his posture, Kinoshita Mai quickly stretched out his hands and directly grabbed Kametaro's hand.
The right hand of the knife.
Click - a crisp sound like a bamboo pole being twisted.
Mai Kinoshita used a special technique to twist Kametaro's right arm in a strange direction, twisting the prisoner's right arm to an angle that would never be concave for ordinary people.
"Ahhhhhhh——!" A heart-rending scream erupted from Kametaro's throat.
His right arm was twisted into a knot, and the intense pain made Kametaro unable to hold the knife any longer, and the knife fell off his palm.
Kinoshita Mai's body... is as flexible as the gurgling water in a clear spring.
I saw Kinoshita Mai taking a deep breath after disarming Kametaro, and then exerting strength on her waist, using Kametaro's right arm as a point of support, her whole body "jumped into the air".
He raised his two legs, with his head down and his feet up, and clamped Kametaro's head between his legs. Then he used his waist and legs to "throw" Kametaro to the ground.
Clang.
The sword that just fell out of Kametaro's hand fell heavily to the ground at the same time as Kametaro's body.
Kametaro, who was beaten to pieces and had several gold stars flashing in front of his eyes, whimpered a few times and fainted.
Although the red-faced brothers and their gang of younger brothers collaborated to kill people for fun, their cooperation was extremely inconsistent.
There is almost no decent cooperation between them - this is probably related to the fact that they are only used to bullying the defenseless and weak. When they meet someone who is a little stronger, their shortcoming of "not knowing how to cooperate" is infinitely magnified.
Mai Kinoshita quickly eliminated Kametarou with lightning speed. Torataro was too slow to beat him, and only Tsuruzaburo and Torogoro were left, and they finally arrived late.
Glancing at Tsuruzaburo and Togoro who were running toward her from left to right, Kinoshita Mai turned her body backwards, did two neat backflips, jumped away from Kametaro, and dodged that person.
Two people attack.
Kinoshita Mai did not jump too far back - because if she jumped too far, it would be inconvenient for her to launch a counterattack.
After dodging the attacks of the two men with a backflip, Kinoshita Mai did not stand up immediately, but quickly lowered her body's center of gravity, and then struck Tsuruzaburo's right leg with a sweeping kick.
Click - there was another sound like a bamboo pole breaking.
With a heart-wrenching sound of bone cracking, Tsuruzaburo was kicked directly to the ground by Kinoshita Mai.
After Tsuruzaburo fell to the ground, Kinoshita Mai wanted to seize the right opportunity and pounce on him to hit Tsuruzaburo who fell to the ground.
However, that is no longer necessary now - when Tsuruzaburo fell to the ground, because he did not have time to receive the body, his forehead directly came into close contact with the ground. After whimpering a few times, he also followed Kametaro's footsteps and passed out.
Die.
Both companions were knocked down, and Tooragoro, who was left alone for a moment, suddenly changed his expression. He held the knife in front of him stiffly, took half a step forward, and then hurriedly took back the foot he just took, and Shinya
It's not about retreating.
Kinoshita Mai had always used the corner of her eye to pay attention to the battle on Ayoto's side.
Although he knew that Qingdeng, who had gone through bloody battles, was very strong, when he saw that the red-faced brothers sent five people, including the two of them, to attack Qingdeng, he still couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.
In the end, it turned out that her worries were unnecessary.
When she dealt with Tsuruzaburo, it happened to be the moment when Aoden knocked Kojiro to the ground with one blow.
…
…
——Is it difficult for people to notice anything strange when lying?
Qingto is not surprised that he copied this talent from Kojiro. After all, according to the information he originally knew, Kojiro is a very good liar and can confuse right and wrong. Qingto can be considered as having copied this guy now.
The ability to lie.
Qingneng always felt that this "fraudster" might be more suitable for a person like Hijikata Toshizo, who has countless lovers.
Kojiro was struck by a sword in the abdomen, and the blood gushing from the wound quickly spread on his clothes.
Although he struggled to raise his hand to cover his wound, trying to stop the flow of blood, it still didn't help.
There is less air coming in and even less air coming out - even if he is sent to the hospital immediately, he probably won't be able to be saved.
Less than half of the companions who can still stand still are less than half... As expected, the morale of this group of perverted murderers has collapsed.
This is normal. It is impossible to expect these madmen who enjoy killing people to have a strong will to fight.
When the situation is bad, the wind will blow, the trees will fall and the hozens will scatter. This is the normal behavior of these people.
Five of the eight people were gone, and the only ones left - the ugly man standing behind Qingtou, and the Tooragoro who had been frightened by Kinoshita Mai, turned around in a hurry and fled in different directions.
Only... Ichitaro remained standing and did not run away.
Originally, when he saw that Qingto's strength was far superior to theirs, Ichitaro had a look of horror on his face.
But after seeing his younger brother being chopped down to the ground by Qingden, the look of horror on his face quickly turned into shock and anger.
Ichitaro, with red eyes, roared and swung the Odachi in his hand like a windmill like a madman.
Kinoshita Mai looked at Ichitaro, who wanted to avenge his brother, and then at the ugly man and Togoro who were running away, with a hesitant look on his face. She didn't know whether she should help Aoto get rid of Ichitaro who was now in a violent state, or go
Chasing the escaped Ugly Man and Toragoro.
But at this time, Qingnog gave a loud reminder to Kinoshita Mai in a fake voice at the right time:
"Go after the escaping person! I will deal with this guy!"
The reason why Kinoshita Mai was not allowed to help him deal with Ichitaro was not because Qingto was afraid that Kinoshita Mai would be injured or any other reason.
Just now, when Kinoshita Mai was distractedly paying attention to Qingto's battle, Qingto also devoted some of his attention and attention to Kinoshita Mai's battle.
Excluding the brief confrontation between the two of them that allowed him to successfully copy the talent of "Milk", this was Qingden's first time seeing the famous Cat Monk fight against someone.
Kinoshita Mai's hand-to-hand combat skills were as expected by Aonto - quite superb.
The unarmed fighting technique used by Mai Kinoshita is a bit like jujitsu, but it is slightly different from the jujitsu in Ayoto's impression. The jujitsu used by Mai Kinoshita is more offensive.
However - even though Kinoshita Mai's unarmed combat skills can be called "excellent", facing armed enemies, especially enemies who use weapons like the Odachi with a very wide attack range, the limitations are still too great.
Even if Kinoshita Mai were to help him deal with Ichitaro, Kinoshita Mai, who was "short-handed", would not be able to provide him with effective support.
In this case, it would be better to let Kinoshita Mai fully utilize her speed expertise.
Hearing Qingden's instructions, Kinoshita Wu was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously.
"Be careful." Qingden shouted to Kinoshita Mai.
Kinoshita Mai, who was already chasing Tooragoro who was closest to her, turned her head after hearing Aoden's words of "be careful" and showed a smile to Aoden - it's a pity that because Kinoshita Mai was wearing a hijab, Aoden couldn't.
Den had no chance to see Kinoshita Mai's smile.
After watching Kinoshita Mai out of the corner of his eye for a moment, Qingto narrowed his gaze and focused all his attention on Ichitaro in front of him.
"Huh...! Huh...! Huh...! Huh...!" Ichitaro, who was standing 7 steps away from Aoden, dragged the Odachi sword in his hand to the ground in the lower right position, and his chest rose and fell rapidly like a bellows.
.
Probably because he vented the anger in his heart with the crazy swing of the knife just now, Ichitaro's eyes became a little clearer.
However, his eyes that were glaring at Qingdeng were still filled with extremely strong hatred and anger.
Regardless of the fact that his breathing had not completely stabilized, Ichitaro gritted his teeth and raised the Odachi above his head again, raising it to the top. His feet dug into the ground, and an aura reminiscent of a solid rock escaped from his body.
.
Looking at Ichitaro who was ready to attack again, Aoi parted his lips and exhaled all the turbid air in his lungs. Then he spread his legs, with his right foot in front and left foot behind. He grasped the handle of Tachibana's knife with both hands and held it
Well, here is the stance that is often used to attack the upper section - Xia Gou.
Sensing the aura emanating from each other, at this moment, the same thought popped up in the minds of Ayoto and Ichitaro at the same time - the next blow will determine the outcome!
The wind around me seemed to have stopped at this moment.
The clouds above my head no longer seem to be moving.
Ichitaro's ability maximizes the destructive power of his slashes.
Qingdeng's special purpose is to attack Xia Gou in the upper section.
The silent confrontation between the two caused the surrounding heaven and earth to enter a state of complete silence, which lasted for several seconds... The tense atmosphere reached its climax in just a few seconds!
Just when a sudden breeze blew the hems of their clothes——
"Drink--!"
Like thunder in the sky, Ichitaro let out a frightening shout, strode forward, and rushed straight towards Qingteng!
At the same moment, Aoden kicked off his hind legs and rushed towards Ichitaro!
The two swordsmen hit each other like two discharged cannonballs, shaking the atmosphere!
The power in Ichitaro's body was like lava erupting in one breath. Along with the roar that made his eardrums hurt, all the energy in his body poured out along the Odachi in his hand.
Ichitaro's Odachi drew a straight, perfect vertical line.
However, Qingden had disappeared from where his blade touched.
All Ichitaro struck was air.
At the critical moment when his blade was about to hit his head, Qingteng quickly lowered his body and jumped to the side, ducking into the blind spot of Ichitaro's field of vision and avoiding Ichitaro's fatal blow.
--Oh shit!
Ichitaro stamped his feet on the ground, stopping his forward movement. Then, as if his eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets, he turned around to look for Aoden's figure that had just slipped into the blind spot of his field of vision.
Just at this time--
Phew!
The flesh and blood burst open... A huge crack suddenly appeared on the left side of Ichitaro's abdomen, and blood spurted out in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, Qingteng...maintained the posture of drawing the sword, standing two steps behind Ichitaro.
"Cough...cough cough...!" Ichitaro, who was vomiting out handfuls of blood uncontrollably, stared at Qingto behind him in shock.
Although it was only for a moment... out of the corner of his eye, Ichitaro saw the flash of lightning as Aouto drew his sword.
Just as Qingto passed by Ichitaro's left body, a silver blade that filled his peripheral vision swept across his waist and directly cut off nearly half of his waist.
This huge tear left only half of the flesh and blood in Ichitaro's waist to connect his upper and lower bodies.
Blood spurted out continuously, and Ichitaro subconsciously raised his hand, trying to block the tear with his palm, but this was of no avail.
After shaking his body for a few times, Ichitaro's body collapsed heavily to the ground, throwing up a thin layer of dust.
Qingteng slowly released his sword stance, let out a long breath, and then while shaking his blood and shaking off the remaining blood on the sword, he turned around and took a look at Ichitaro's body at his feet.
——There is no system sound...Don't you have a special talent like your younger brother...
Aoi Nobumoto also expected that Ichitaro, who was a brother to Kojiro, might also have some special talent. It seemed that his expectations were in vain.
After waiting quietly for a few seconds to confirm that there was indeed no system sound in his mind, Qingdeng put the orange juice back into the scabbard.
——Okay... Let's go find Ms. Kinoshita...
Qingden was going to find Mai Kinoshita, who had just run to chase someone.
But... just as he was thinking secretly in his mind, the sound of dense footsteps suddenly reached Qingdeng's ears.
And these dense footsteps... were coming from the direction that Kinoshita Mai just left...
Qingdeng raised his eyes in confusion and followed the sound.
Immediately afterwards, he saw what the dense footsteps were all about.
At the entrance of Dongjie Street, he saw Kinoshita Mai who had just left to chase someone.
Kinoshita Mai ran quickly towards him, her eyes full of confusion and confusion.
Behind her is a large group of people...
The vast majority of this large group of people were wearing black uniforms and ten hand belts.
The lanterns they were carrying had two large Chinese characters written on them: Fire Thief.
…
…
Turning back time not long ago——
Edo, northern suburbs, somewhere——
"So... someone just secretly opened a small gambling house..." After listening to the report from his subordinates, Nishino raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows to disperse the tiredness on his brows, "Did you find anything in the gambling house?"
Something weird?"
"No." One of his subordinates, Oka Hiki, stood in front of Nishino and shook his head.
"Nishino-kun."
A man's angry shout sounded from behind Nishino.
The owner of this shout was a strong man in his 30s wearing a black uniform and a black formation.
"The people involved have been tied up here. How is the situation here?"
"We have thoroughly checked the gambling den." Nishino said calmly, "There are no suspicious items."
This strong and muscular man is named Mizushima Rensaburo.
Compared to his real name, his job name may be a little louder - Huo Fu Thief changed to Captain of the Fourth Division!
After the shogunate dispatched the Hofu Thieves Kairai to join forces with the execution office to deal with the anti-barbarian group, in order to further strengthen the defense of Edo, the Hofu Thieves Kai would send two captains and their team members every night to join forces with the execution office.
The officials of the "Three Chapters" were on night shift together, and the two captains and their troops were stationed at the South and North Stations respectively.
Today's Kitabansuo happened to be on duty at Nishino for the night shift.
Tonight, the unit of the Huosuke Thieves Kai who was working the night shift at the Northern Division with Nishino was the Fourth Division commanded by Mizushima.
Just now, when they were all quietly guarding the moonlit night and the starry sky in Beibansuo, a stall owner selling "Nightingale Soba" suddenly came to Beibansuo.
Nightingale Soba - a small street vendor selling buckwheat noodles late at night.
This stall owner suddenly came to the door for no other reason than to report that in the northern suburbs of Edo, he found a group of people mysteriously coming in and out of a certain small house.
At a time when the shogunate is severely cracking down on the "radical anti-barbarian faction" headed by the anti-barbarian group, this kind of suspicious information cannot be ignored...
Holding the alert thought that "maybe thugs from the 'radical anti-barbarian faction' are gathering in groups for a meeting," Nishino led his subordinates, cooperated with Mizushima and his members of the Fourth Division, and rushed to the reporting location.
Each division formed by the Fire Bandits had around 50 people. Mizushima did not take away all of his fourth division, but only half of them - 26 people.
The group of people hurriedly raided the location reported by the stall owner. After a detailed investigation, they discovered that it turned out to be a mistake - this small room was a small gambling house opened privately by a certain guy.
And those mysterious people who come in and out are just a bunch of gamblers.
Although it was an accident, he caught a group of people who were running a casino privately, so the trip was not completely fruitless.
After finishing the remaining work, Nishino and Mizushima planned to collect the team and return to the station.
But, suddenly——
"Huh?" Nishino raised his eyebrows vigorously.
Mizushima next to him also showed a similar expression.
The two...and some of their subordinates raised their heads and looked toward the northeast.
Not far to the northeast of this place is Edo's only residential area.
Just now, they all heard strange noises in this direction...
If you listen carefully, the movement... looks very much like a human scream.
"What's going on?" Mizushima frowned, "This sound... sounds a bit like someone screaming."
"...Let's go." Nishino said in a deep voice, "Let's go take a look."
Nishino's words of "go and have a look" spoke to Mizushima's heart - exactly what he meant.
At the moment when the "radical anti-barbarian faction" is being vigorously cracked down on, now that they have heard strange noises, they cannot ignore it - Nishino and Mizushima left a few people to take charge of escorting all those involved in this small gambling house back to the execution center.
, and then personally led most of the troops and rushed towards the direction from which the strange noise came.
Quickly passing through the street, passing by houses one after another, soon - the Juduo residential area in the northern suburbs appeared in front of Nishino and others.
Entering this "block that everyone ignores" with a strong stench in the air, as soon as they turned a corner, Nishino and the others bumped into a samurai who was running away in a hurry - it was that man
Toragoro, who had just faced off with Mai Kinoshita, now had no fighting spirit and just wanted to escape.
Tooragoro looked at the large number of official officials who suddenly appeared in front of him, and his already ugly expression suddenly changed again.
He quickly stopped and tried to find another direction to escape.
How come there are samurai armed with swords in the Kudo settlement? And they want to run away when they see an official... Mizushima, who felt that Tooragoro was extremely suspicious, waved his hand: "Catch him!"
Several members of the Fourth Squadron ran out of the queue and swarmed forward. In a blink of an eye, they caught Toorago who had collided with them and had no time to turn and escape.
At this time, a series of thin, hurried footsteps suddenly came from the distance - at the end of the street to the west, a petite figure turned around the corner, stood on the street, and then headed towards
Head straight towards Tooragoro's direction.
However, she only took two steps before her whole body froze in place when she saw a large number of official officials led by Nishino and Mizushima.
This petite figure... stood with Nishino and others at the east and west ends of the street respectively. You looked at me, I looked at you, and a wisp of breeze passed by on the street between them.
This weird silence only lasted for less than 2 seconds. One of Nishino's subordinates, Oka Hiki, raised his hand and pointed at the petite figure and shouted, breaking the weird silence:
"It's the Cat Monk! Lord Nishino! It's the Cat Monk!"
This petite black figure is none other than the cat monk...or rather Mai Kinoshita.
"Cat Monk?" Mizushima, who had always only heard of this famous monster thief but never seen him, opened his eyes and his expression changed.
As for Nishino, his current expression also changed suddenly due to shock.
Why is the Cat Monk here? This question looms in the minds of Nishino and others.
Nishino was still in shock, but Mizushima, who was standing next to him, got out of his astonishment first: "Sagara! Miyabe! You two stay here and watch this guy (Toragoro)! Others
Follow me! Catch the little cat monk!"
Although I don’t know why the cat monk who only steals money from evil people appears here, it is always right to catch this big monster thief who has caused headaches for the practice for a long time!
Ever since - under Mizushima's instructions, the members of the Fourth Squadron rushed towards Kinoshita Mai in a chaotic manner.
Seeing Mizushima and the others chasing after Mai Kinoshita, Nishino was startled. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth, waved his big hand, and led his subordinates Okabiki to follow closely behind the Fourth Squadron.
…
…
"Miss Kinoshita! What's going on with these officials?"
At this moment, Ayoto and Mai Kinoshita were running side by side along the street below, heading east.
After a while, they rushed out of the Judo settlement and returned to the "normal town" from the "ruined area without people's jurisdiction".
But even though they had escaped from the Huduo settlement, there were still dense sounds of chasing footsteps behind them.
"I don't know either!" Mai Kinoshita, who still had a look of confusion on her face, said quickly in an aggrieved tone, "I just ran to chase a thief who was escaping."
"But when I turned a corner, I saw these officials!"
After listening to Kinoshita Mai's explanation, Qingto took the opportunity to turn his head and glance at the officials who were clinging to their buttocks.
Among these officials, Qingto saw an acquaintance—the ace crime-solving expert of their Beifan Office: Nishino.
As for the large group of people beside Nishino, Qingto didn't recognize them.
However - although he didn't recognize these people, Qingdeng did recognize their clothes.
Looking at the black uniforms they were wearing and the lanterns in their hands with the word "Fire Thief" written on them in big letters, Qingden couldn't help but murmur:
"I happened to meet the most troublesome opponent..."
