Chapter 820 It turns out you are also a member of the Great Salt Party!5100
The so-called "defeated army" is nothing more than this.
Miss Sumire and others were shocked and stunned.
Looking up, Qingdeng's fighting posture - the steps to dodge attacks, the technique of wielding the sword, the transformation of offense and defense, the connection between moves - from the body posture to the details of his fingertips, everything is exquisite.
High and profound, flowing clouds and flowing water are pleasing to the eye!
There is no doubt that this is an exquisite move that can only be shown by a person who has reached the pinnacle of skill and combat experience!
To say "dancer"... I'm afraid it's not quite appropriate.
Qingdeng's movements are more than outstanding, but not elegant enough.
To be precise... Qingden right now is more like a killing machine that specializes in wielding a sword!
Kill the enemy when you encounter it, use a wide range of movements, and pursue efficiency. If you can kill the enemy with one sword, you will never use a second sword, reduce your own consumption to the lowest point, and increase the enemy's casualties to the highest point!
Unknowingly, Miss Sumire and others fell into a sluggish state, neither speaking nor moving, as if they were clay and wood sculptures.
About 5 seconds later, Miss Sumire reacted first and shouted:
"Don't be stunned! Go and help!"
As she spoke, she took off 6 shurikens from her waist, grabbed three with each hand, then kicked the window in front of her with a kick, aiming at the unlucky ones closest to her, taking a deep breath, and swung her hands violently -
-All six shurikens were thrown out.
The unstoppable Qingdeng in front of them has already made the patriots so anxious that they have no time to care.
Therefore, facing this sudden shuriken attack, the patriots did not react at all.
By the time they heard the sound of breaking wind, it was too late.
All six shurikens thrown by Miss Sumire hit the mark, and none of them missed.
The unlucky ones she targeted were all hit - two died on the spot, the other two were seriously injured, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
The places she aimed at were all vital parts such as wrists, ankles, necks, heads, etc. that could directly kill someone or render a person incapable of fighting.
Throwing multiple shurikens in one go; barely aiming, just raising her hand and throwing; the hit rate is extremely high... Miss Sumire's superb throwing skills were fully demonstrated at this moment.
When Miss Sumire and others arrived for reinforcements, Qingto, who had a sharp ear, had already noticed their movements.
While he continued to attack the enemy with his sword, he peeked out of the corner of his eye.
After witnessing Miss Sumire's wonderful skill in throwing shuriken, Aoto couldn't help but cheer in his heart.
Ayoto has seen many people who are good at using katana, wakizashi, spear, and naginata.
But he had rarely seen anyone who was good at using shuriken.
He couldn't help but think: the girls around him who knew martial arts not only had different personalities, but were also good at using different weapons.
Souji is good at katana, Sanako is good at naginata, Amu is good at fists and kicks, Tenzouin is good at bow and arrow, and Sumire-san is good at shuriken.
After thinking wildly for a while, Qingden quickly abandoned the distracting thoughts in his mind and refocused on the battle in front of him.
Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that even Qingto alone is enough to take down the warehouse and wipe out all the enemies, and does not need the help of Miss Sumire and others at all, but this kind of "you are watching while others are busy"
"The feeling is really oppressive.
As a result, under the leadership of Miss Sumire, Ebina Yezong and the kunoichi went into battle one after another.
Ebina Ye Zong drew his sword, shouted, rushed into the chaos, aimed at a certain patriot, and hit him with a sword.
This strike was so wonderful that the blade drew a graceful curve in mid-air and cut off half of his forehead.
In the next moment, while adjusting his breath, he assumed the Canshin stance, pulled the sword back to his chest, and then slashed the next enemy after completing the charge.
Ebina Yezong's swordsmanship skills are not outstanding, but he has considerable combat experience and is a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles.
At the same time that Ebina Yezong stood up to fight, Miss Sumire and the kunoichi under her command began to display their abilities.
Miss Sumire is not bragging, her subordinates are indeed very good at using hidden weapons.
I saw them scattering in all directions, each occupying the commanding heights, and then taking out shurikens that glowed coldly from various places on their bodies.
In an instant, a "rain of shurikens" started falling in the warehouse!
Qingdeng heard a scalp-numbing sound of intense wind coming from above his head.
A pair of shurikens cut out thrilling afterimages in mid-air, attacking the patriots from all directions.
Immediately after the sound of breaking wind, there were screams and moans one after another.
"Ahhhhhh!"
"Uh...! My hand...! My hand was pierced...!"
"You actually used a concealed weapon! You are so despicable! If you have the guts, come down and have a showdown!"
Faced with the "complaints" from the patriots, Miss Sumire spoke impatiently:
"What are you yelling about? You idiots with no vision! This is how we female ninjas fight!"
Except for people with extraordinary talents like Souji, the muscle strength and physical fitness of most women are far inferior to men.
Therefore, if women want to kill enemies like men and achieve results, they can only find other ways and choose weapons that suit them and can bridge the gap between men and women.
For example, spears and naginata have a distance advantage.
Or it could be said to be hidden weapons like shurikens and kunai.
Even if you are a female, when you throw the shuriken with force, it is enough to defeat thieves and kill the enemy!
Among the "rain of shurikens" flying all over the sky, Miss Sumire's shurikens were the most accurate and powerful.
If she didn't raise her hand, then one of the patriots would fall to the ground screaming or die directly.
His skills were so superb that even Qingdeng couldn't help but be a little moved, and had the idea of poaching people in his mind.
Of course, Qingdeng is still self-aware.
He did not think that he could "abduct" the intelligence leader of the Salt Party with just a few words or by luring him with fame and fortune.
After successively contacting my grandson Chutaro, Ebina Ye Zong, Miss Sumire and other members of the Great Salt Party, Qingto finally understood why he would defect to the Great Salt Party in such an environment where the Great Salt Party was repeatedly suppressed.
Party members are basically a group of strong-willed idealists.
Over the past two decades, the shogunate has spared no effort in pursuing the Great Salt Party, which has had a "reverse filtering" effect.
Those who are weak-willed will have quit long ago.
Most of those who stayed behind were a group of hard-nosed people who looked down upon death.
If he had enough time, Qingdeng might adopt a "cat-playing-mouse" mentality and slowly play with the group of patriots in front of him with great interest, and pick up a few more talents along the way.
But now, the four characters "Burn Kyoto" are like a sword of Damocles, hanging over Qingdeng's head, making him dare not relax.
In addition, he was also very concerned about the situation at Ikeda House, and he was always thinking about it.
Therefore, all he wanted now was to seize the warehouse as soon as possible, kill the lunatics led by Yoshida Minoru, resolve the crisis of the "Kyoto Fire", and then rush to Ikedaya to check the situation.
When he broke into the warehouse, he asked coolly, "Which one is Yoshida Minoru?"
But after working on it for a long time, he still didn't know who Yoshida Minoru was.
But, it doesn't matter anymore.
——As long as you keep swinging your sword and kill all the enemies in front of you, you can always kill Yoshida Minoru!
After holding on to this simple idea, Qingdeng jumped out like a wild beast and tore a certain patriot into pieces.
With the support of Miss Sumire and others, the current battle situation... no need to go into details.
When the opponent was only a benevolent king, the patriots were completely defeated.
But now, there is not only Nioh, but also a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and there are countless shurikens flying above his head... The battle situation has become one-sided! There is no possibility of turning defeat into victory!
Except for a few people who were still fighting bloody battles, the remaining people who were still alive had no intention of fighting and fled each other.
Of course, before they could escape far, they were knocked to the ground by the shurikens of Miss Sumire and others.
After a while, the sound of fighting gradually stopped - and the scene returned to tranquility.
Looking around, all the patriots as far as the eye could see were eliminated.
Most of them fell to Qingteng's sword.
Everyone who was still alive was injured and completely lost their fighting ability.
Under Miss Sumire's instructions, the kunoichi jumped down from high places and divided into two groups.
A group of people rushed towards the large wooden boxes stacked one after another deep in the warehouse - the leader was A Tao.
When they opened those wooden boxes, there was suddenly a pungent smell of kerosene in the air, and a smell of gunpowder that made the back of the tongue bitter - the boxes were filled with bottles of kerosene and boxes of gunpowder!
This amount of kerosene and gunpowder is more than enough to burn most of Kyoto!
A Tao excitedly shouted to Miss Sumire:
"Miss Sumire! Found it! The kerosene and gunpowder are here!"
Another group of people pounced on the guys who were still alive - the leader was Amei.
"Don't move!"
"Be honest!"
"If you still want to live, just listen to us!"
The kunoichi frowned, tried their best to look ferocious, and used their hands and feet to capture those lucky survivors.
Being able to escape from Qingteng's sword - from this point of view, they are indeed lucky.
Obviously, the ferocious looks shown by the kunoichi to intimidate the patriots were completely unnecessary.
Although these guys managed to save their lives, they were all injured. Those with the least injuries were unable to stand up and completely lost their ability to resist.
After Miss Sumire landed lightly, she was not busy looking for fire oil, gunpowder or capturing the surviving heroes like other kunoichi. Instead, she leaned down and carefully looked at the faces of the dead.
For those who were lying face down and couldn't see their faces clearly, she also specially turned over their faces and bodies.
He behaves like this as if he is looking for someone.
When Qingdeng saw this, he couldn't help but ask:
"Ajin, what are you doing?"
Miss Sumire replied without raising her head:
"I'm looking for Yoshida Minoru."
"Yoshida Minoru? Do you know what Yoshida Minoru looks like?"
Miss Sumire smiled meaningfully.
"Aki, have you forgotten? I am the 'number one geisha in Kyoto'."
“‘There are no gods within three inches of a man’s navel.’ Whether it’s the Zunbang sect or the Zuomu sect, they all like to hang out among women.”
“Before the ‘August 18th Coup’, the Zunhuang faction particularly liked to hold banquets and meetings in Gion.”
"After going back and forth, I have personally seen all the prominent figures in the Zunbo Sect."
"I've seen that Yoshida Minoru several times."
"He is always following behind Kusaka Genrui, saying 'repulse the barbarians' but not saying 'God's punishment'. He is a very gloomy and cruel guy."
"If we can successfully kill this person, we will be able to eliminate a great harm to this world."
There is no spirit in the three inches below the navel of a man - this is a classic saying from the Edo period.
As the name suggests, this sentence is complaining about men being perverts.
Now that Miss Sumire recognized the appearance of Yoshida Minoru, Aoto breathed a sigh of relief.
Yoshida Minoru is one of the leaders of the crazy plan to "burn Kyoto".
Without this person, tonight's "joint operation" would be far from perfect.
The overall situation is now decided.
The next work is nothing more than cleaning up the battlefield.
However... at this moment, the tips of Qingden's ears trembled slightly - the talent "Perceiver of Wind +3" was activated - and he suddenly heard the "squeaking" sound of the bowstring being tightened!
His expression suddenly changed slightly, and he turned around like lightning.
I saw a patriotic man covered in blood, leaning against the wall, gritting his teeth and pulling out the Japanese bow in his hand.
There was a shuriken stuck in his neck, and his breathing was gradually weakening, as if he would die at any moment.
This man squeezed out all the remaining strength in his body and stretched the bow in his palm into a full moon.
The place where that bit of cold light was aimed... was the back of Ebi Mingye Zong!
Ebina Ye Zong was adjusting his breathing and did not notice the crisis behind him.
When Qingdeng found this person, the bowstring was already taut, the arrows were firmly set and aligned, and the entire bow was ready to be fired at any time!
"Mr. Ebina! Get down!"
Qingden shouted loudly, flipped his right wrist, changed the way he held the sword to an inverted grip, then used a javelin-like movement, aimed at the man's head, and threw the Vairocana in his hand forcefully.
Almost at the same moment when Qingdeng threw the knife, the man loosened his fingers on the bowstring——
Whoosh!
The originally tight strength suddenly bounced out from between his arms!
Arrows shot out!
Qingdeng’s reminder was not untimely.
But...compared to the speed of the opponent's arrow release, his reminder was still half a step slower!
When Qingdeng warned him, Ebina Ye Zong didn't know what was going on, but he still quickly got down.
The speed at which he leaned down... was obviously no match for the speed at which the arrow flew!
It's obvious at a glance - he can't escape!
At this critical moment, a spear suddenly fell from the sky!
The spear was as straight as a meteor, cutting through the atmosphere, slicing everyone's field of vision diagonally, and then accurately intercepted the arrow in mid-air.
Spears and arrows - it is obvious which of the two is stronger or weaker.
There was just a "click" sound, just like breaking a toothpick, and the spear easily broke the arrow.
The arrow broke into two pieces and fell to the ground in boredom.
As for the long spear, it remained unabated and plunged straight into the ground, leaving only the barrel and half of the spear head outside.
At the same moment when the spear broke the arrow, the Vairocana thrown by Qingden hit the attacker right in the forehead.
The "brain opening" on the physical level... The man's eyes protruded, and then rolled back, revealing the whites of his eyes like a dead fish. Then, as if being pulled, his head fell back, and he died completely.
From Zhang Gong's sneak attack to Qingdeng's warning and rescue, to the sudden attack of the spear... everything happened in milliseconds.
Because the incident happened suddenly, Miss Sumire and others were stunned for 2 or 3 seconds before they finally recovered.
When he saw the spear falling from the sky, Qingdeng was immediately surprised.
Throw the spear and accurately intercept the high-speed arrows in mid-air... With his sharp eyesight and superb gun handling skills, the owner of this spear must be a martial arts master!
At this moment, Miss Sumire and others also looked as if they were lost in the fog.
However, just for a moment, they seemed to realize something, and their faces slowly showed expressions of realization.
Qingdeng first glanced at the two broken arrows on the ground, then raised his head and looked in the direction where the spear was shot - there was a huge figure standing on the beam.
The hand "throwing a spear and breaking an arrow" just now was very free and elegant.
But the owner of this gun... Although it cannot be said that it has nothing to do with words such as "chic" and "elegant", it can also be said to be quite different.
This person's body shape is simply the best interpretation of the term "potbellied".
Even wearing a loose kimono, he couldn't hide his fat and protruding belly.
Tsukiyo's unshaved hair was a mess, resembling a bird's nest.
His face was also dirty and looked quite oily.
At first glance, he just looks like a slovenly person.
However, after seeing this man, Qingdeng had a look of astonishment on his face.
The reason for this was all because he recognized this person.
"Mr. Dongcheng...?"
The other party is none other than Shintaro Tojo, who came to Beijing not long ago to take up the post of "Kyoto Director"!
Under the gaze of everyone, Shintaro Tojo staggered his steps and jumped down.
Bang - when this huge "meat ball"-like body landed on the ground, the entire ground immediately vibrated slightly, showing how heavy it was.
Why is Shintaro Tojo here? Even though he asked this question in his mind, Qingto quickly figured out the answer.
It's just that... the answer made it difficult for him to adapt to it for a while.
"You damn fat man, you came too slowly!"
Miss Sumire glared at Shintaro Tojo angrily.
The other party spread his hands:
"Sorry, I came at full speed. Fortunately, I came not too late. It would be better to come early than to come by chance."
Watching the interaction between Miss Sumire and Tojo Shintaro... No matter how shocked Ayoto was, he could only accept this fact.
"...Today is such a good day."
Aoto looked at Miss Sumire, then at Shintaro Tojo, and continued in a half-joking, half-serious tone:
"Everyone who usually hides his/her true identity tonight has revealed his true identity."
Having said this, he turned his head and looked at Dongcheng Shintaro:
"So you are the 'combat expert' that Jin kept talking about just now!"
Apart from Ebina Yezong, there was only one other combatant that Miss Sumire could immediately call on tonight - Qingnobu didn't pay much attention to this matter.
I thought to myself, "It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he doesn't hold him back and can be useful."
He never expected that the person Miss Sumire was talking about would actually be an acquaintance of his...!
As soon as Qingto finished speaking, Tojo Shintaro smiled slightly:
"He is both a minister and a loyalist of the Great Salt Party... This is not surprising, right?"
"Isn't that what my grandson Chutaro is like?"
