*******
Kotaro didn't know what the nearly a hundred samurai who broke into Nijo Castle were doing.
But he knew - the target of these people seemed to be Ogata Ittosai.
Since the target is Ogata Ittousai, these people are allies. Kotaro decided to temporarily cooperate with these people and take down Ogata Ittousai together.
However, from the beginning of the battle to the present, Kotaro, who had been watching the battle from a distance, looked increasingly ugly.
Kotaro seemed to see the three-headed and six-armed Asura wreaking havoc there...
With a heavy expression, he took out a black cloth bag from his arms.
It’s easy to tell from the shape of the bag—this black bag contains a round object as big as an adult’s thumb.
Looking at the cloth bag in his hand, Kotaro's expression became heavier.
…
…
Ogata cheered up and danced the Da Shi Tian and Da Zi Zi in his hands with cold light.
There were dozens of samurai and ninjas around, but no one could get close.
From time to time, a warrior or ninja would scream, fly out of the crowd, and fall heavily to the ground.
Ogata knew what it meant to attack Nijo Castle.
Ogata also knew what it meant to attack Nijo Castle tonight.
Attacking Nijo Castle and forcibly killing Matsudaira Gennai are two completely different things.
Matsudaira Gennai is just the lord of a small feudal clan.
Nijo Castle is the symbol of power of the shogunate in Kyoto.
In more than two hundred years, it has only been attacked once by Akechi Mitsuhide during the Warring States Period.
Since the opening of the city by Tokugawa Ieyasu, no one has had the courage to trample on this majestic castle that symbolizes the authority of the shogunate.
From tonight onwards, even if Ogata is lucky enough to survive, he will be hunted by the shogunate relentlessly and with far greater intensity than before.
Not only will he be hunted by the shogunate, but he will also be hunted by Shiranui.
Shiranui, who is responsible for protecting Nijo Castle, attacks Nijo Castle tonight, which is tantamount to not giving Shiranui any face at all.
Forming an undying relationship with Japan's strongest armed force and Japan's strongest ninja force at the same time - a normal person's legs would tremble with fear just thinking about it.
Ogata knew that huge forces like the Shogunate and Shiranui would not allow others to trample on their dignity.
But will the shogunate and Shiranui know that people who are as fragile as ants in their eyes also do not allow others to trample on their dignity?
Do not allow others to take away what you cherish.
Ogata still vividly remembers the helpless and helpless look of Omachi, trembling with fear.
Ogata could still hear Ogata's trembling voice that sounded like he was crying.
I no longer want to hold back any longer.
I no longer want to see her pitiful appearance.
Right now!
Right here!
Beat it to its core!!
…
…
"Ittosai! Go to hell!!"
"I took your valuable head!!"
The samurai standing on the left and right of Ogata swung their swords towards Ogata.
The powerful power contained in the blade seemed to split Ogata and the ground under Ogata's feet into two halves.
In addition to the ninjas in Shiranui and the members of the "Grave Diggers", there seemed to be many bounty hunters who were interested in Ogata's valuable head and rushed into Nijo Castle.
The "Blade", which had just been upgraded to the "Master Level", shined at this time.
No matter where the sword comes from, the Daeshakuten and Daizizao in Ogata's hands can accurately hold it and bounce it back with the minimum force.
Use step steps to dodge the slash of the man on the left, use Da Zi Zai to deflect the sword of the man on the right, and use Da Shi Tian to cut down the enemy in front.
The castle tower of Nijo Castle has been turned into a Shura battlefield.
People kept falling down.
Then people who were waiting downstairs came upstairs to fill the vacancy.
The weapons held by these guys are all kinds of, and not all of them hold swords.
"The head on your neck belongs to me!!"
The person who made this roar was a strong man who wielded a gun.
The gun used by this strong man is not an ordinary gun, its barrel is made of metal.
In terms of attack distance, this strong man is far superior to Ogata.
But on Butterfly Island, the battle with the "demon monk" had already given Ogata a wealth of experience in fighting enemies "with long weapons".
Ogata swung Daishi Tian horizontally, and used his own blade to seal the tip of the spear that the strong man was thrusting at him.
"What?!" The strong man looked stunned.
While the strong man was still stunned, Ogata had already turned the Daeshten in his hand, letting the blade close to the barrel of his spear, sliding towards the chest of the strong man, and the blade scratched out on the metal barrel.
A series of sparks.
Ogata has fought many battles involving one against many.
No.
Rather, from the time he arrived in the Edo period last May to now, almost every battle Ogata has fought has been with one against many.
The Wuwo Sword Style is a swordsmanship style that specializes in one-dozen swordsmanship.
Ogata's rich combat experience coupled with his Wuwo-dou style means that he is not defeated by these enemies with varying levels of skill.
The breath of the source - has already been opened.
With the help of the breath of the source, Ogata concentrated on deflecting or dodging attacks coming from all directions, and knocked down every enemy in front of him.
While passively counterattacking every enemy around him, Ogata also took the initiative to attack from time to time.
In front of Ogata, there were 15 enemies lined up in a long and winding line, like a bloated snake.
Among the enemies that make up this bloated "long snake" are bounty hunters, ninjas from Shiranui, and members of the "Grave Diggers".
These 15 people probably didn't expect that Ogata would take the initiative to attack them.
Ogata held up his two swords and went straight towards them to kill them.
Ogata brandished his two swords, using the flow of the two swords without self to the extreme.
The light from the two swords swung out covered every enemy in front of him.
Every slash he swings out can hit every enemy's vital point with extreme precision.
In the blink of an eye, these 15 enemies were all chopped down by the enemy.
I don't know who accidentally touched the candle located in the corner of the castle tower.
The castle tower is an entirely wooden structure.
The candle that fell to the ground lit up the ground beneath everyone's feet with its scattered candle flames.
Flames spread from the ground and climbed up the nearby wall.
"It's on fire! It's on fire!"
"Come on! This place is on fire! Stop fighting that madman!"
The flames suddenly shot up and spread rapidly, causing many people present to look panicked.
However, Ogata's expression remained unchanged.
Still focused on fighting every enemy in front of him.
Bounty hunters are just a bunch of people who work for money.
There are only a few people who are willing to risk their lives for money.
Therefore, the first people whose morale collapsed and fled were those bounty hunters who were still able to move.
They scattered and fled.
Some bounty hunters even throw away their weapons in order to make themselves run faster.
The next person whose morale collapsed was the "gravedigger".
Although there are a large number of "gravediggers", nearly a hundred of them, their levels are as uneven as those of bounty hunters.
The mission they received from Tsurugi was to "capture Ogata alive as much as possible."
However - that Hexian disappeared after leading them to Nijo Castle.
As their temporary leader, He Xian was not present, which made the morale of the "Grave Diggers" drop even faster.
When the war first started, their fighting spirit was high.
When there were only 70 people left, they began to realize something was wrong.
When the number of people fell below 60, they discovered that the enemy in front of them was a monster.
When the number of people dropped below 40, someone's fighting will and morale finally began to collapse.
They are not an indomitable elite force.
After more than 60% of the companions were chopped down to the ground by Ogata, the fighting spirit and morale of the remaining people finally collapsed, and they did not dare to challenge Ogata's blade.
To a certain extent, it is quite remarkable that they were able to hold on until more than 60% of the people were cut down before fleeing in all directions.
Only the ninjas in Shiranui remained at the scene and engaged in an endless confrontation with Ogata.
It's a pity - the number of ninjas in Shiranui is too small.
At this moment, only five ninjas, including Kotaro, were still standing.
The ground was covered with corpses, and there was no place to step down. Whether it was Ogata or Kotaro and others, they could only fight on these layers of corpses.
Kotaro never stepped forward to fight Ogata, and always stood far away, observing Ogata's fighting method and style.
As a result, Kotaro's face turned paler the more he looked at it.
"...Shirataro, Bastaro."
Kotaro suddenly whispered to the two ninjas standing on his left and right sides.
Among the four living ninjas except Kotaro, two of them are chuunin and are fighting with Ogata, and the other two are jounin and stand beside Kotaro.
"Try to help me hold down Ogata Ittosai."
After saying that, Kotaro took out the black cloth bag again.
Looking at the black cloth bag in Kotaro's hand, Shirataro and Bentaro's pupils shrank suddenly.
"Sir Kotaro!" Baitaro's face was full of astonishment, "Are you planning to enter the 'Yaksha Realm'?"
"Under normal circumstances, I am not the opponent of Ogata Ittousai now." Although he did not want to admit it, Kotaro gritted his teeth and told the truth.
"In short - help me hold off Ogata Ittosai and buy me time!"
After saying that, Kotaro tore open the cloth bag in his hand without thinking, stuffed a black pill in the bag into his mouth and swallowed it, then sat cross-legged on the ground.
The moment the black pill entered his stomach, a look of pain immediately appeared on Kotaro's face, and his hands that were naturally resting on his legs clenched tightly.
Shirataro and Rentaro looked at each other, then nodded solemnly, then took out their respective weapons and killed Ogata.
At this time, Ogata had just killed the two Chuunin who were fighting with him.
Seeing another ninja from Shiranui coming to kill him, Ogata immediately cheered up and raised the sword in his hand.
The first one to reach Ogata was Bastaro, each holding a wakizashi.
Bastaro waved the two wakizashi in his hand and slashed at Ogata.
clang!
Ogata's Daishiten and Daijizao collided with Rentaro's two swords in mid-air.
"You are a double-sword style like me." Bastaro grinned, showing his pale teeth, "Let me, who is also a double-sword style, compete with you!"
Ogata did not respond to Rentaro's words.
Because he heard the sound of arrows cutting the air beside him.
Ogata did not follow the sound and look, but immediately put away Bentaro's sword in front of him, then jumped back to dodge the arrow.
After dodging the arrow, Ogata looked towards the direction from which the arrow was shot - he was holding a crossbow and loading new arrows with an extremely skilled technique.
"One for close combat and one for long-distance attack..."
After muttering like this, Ogata raised his sword and charged towards Shirataro.
"Hey, hey, hey."
Before he could reach Shirataro, Bastarō stopped in front of Ogata.
"Do you think I don't know the rules of combat that protect shooters?"
After mocking Ogata in a mocking tone, Bastaro drew back his swords again.
When it comes to swordsmanship, Bastaro is far from Ogata's opponent.
If it were one-on-one, Ogata would be absolutely certain that he could decapitate Bentaro within 7 moves.
However—Bentaro is assisted by Shirataro.
This made Ogata's one-on-one battle difficult to fight.
Shirataro's crossbow seems to be specially made. Not only is it incredibly powerful, it also has a very fast reloading speed.
While fighting against Rentaro, he also had to be wary of Shirataro's arrows, which made it difficult for Ogata to finish off Rentaro in front of him.
Seeing that his crossbow caused Ogata to suffer, Shirataro laughed proudly.
"This is the crossbow I bought and modified in Tangtu!"
Shirataro proudly introduced the crossbow in his hand to Ogata.
"Both the power and the reloading speed are far superior to ordinary hand crossbows!"
"How's that? You've never seen such a powerful long-range weapon, have you?"
Ogata ignored Shirataro's words.
Because...he thought what Bai Taro said just now was ridiculous.
Bastaro waved the two swords in his hands and danced out a series of afterimages, intending to use these countless sword shadows to suppress Ogata.
This densely packed knife shadow seems quite scary, but there are only two knives in total.
There was a flash of sword light - the shadows of the sword danced by Bastarō were bounced away by Ogata's powerful sword that gathered all his strength.
Seeing that his offensive was neutralized again, Bastaro showed a little impatience and panic on his face.
In order to regroup the situation, Rentaro took the initiative to take a few steps back to increase the distance between himself and Ogata.
And Ogata...has been waiting for this moment.
After seeing Bastaro retreating on his own initiative, Ogata released the thumb, index finger, and middle finger of his left hand, and continued to grasp the handle of the sword with only the ring finger and tail finger of his left hand, and then put his left hand into his arms.
Grab Kasumi Nagi with your thumb, index finger, and middle finger, and take Kasumaki out of your arms in one go.
The gun was pointed at Shirataro, who was still loading new arrows because he had just fired an arrow, and fired twice.
Because the distance between Ogata and Shirataro was quite far, in order to ensure that he could hit Shirataro, Ogata chose to fire two shots in a row.
Perhaps due to good luck, the two bullets fired from the gun all hit Shirataro's torso.
Shirataro slowly knelt down on one knee in pain.
This incident happened so suddenly that Rentaro was completely unprepared.
It wasn't until Shirataro was shot down by Ogata that Bastarō finally reacted, clenched the two swords in his hands, and killed Ogata in front of him.
For Bentaro who was coming towards him, Ogata just silently adjusted the muzzle of Kasumi Nagi's gun, pointed it at Bentaro's chest, and pulled the trigger.
Because Bastaro was very close and could hit him casually, Ogata only fired one shot.
The projectile accurately hit his chest, causing Rentaro to stop rushing forward.
After quickly stuffing Kasumi Nagi back into his arms, Ogao slid forward, dodged in front of Bastaro, and killed him with a sword.
"What era has it been, and you're still playing with a crossbow..."
Ogata mocked Shirataro, who couldn't even stand up, in a mocking tone, while he rushed towards Shirataro and gave him a stabbing blow.
After finally killing both Rentaro and Shirataro, Ogata gasped for air.
Ogata didn't count how many people he had killed since he invaded Nijo Castle until now.
But there should be close to a hundred people.
After such a fierce battle, Ogata's breathing began to become difficult due to exhaustion.
After pulling Da Shiten out of Shirataro's body, Ogata suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking wind coming from behind him!
The sound of this breaking wind was extraordinary. Ogata could tell just by the sound of the sound that this attack was coming towards him rapidly. It was extremely powerful.
Ogata's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he turned around quickly. While turning around, he swung his sword to respond to the sound of breaking wind.
clang!
The sound of gold and iron hitting each other was almost deafening.
A huge force was transmitted along the handle of Daishiten's sword to Ogata's right palm and right arm, causing Ogata's arm to feel numb and painful.
"Well..."
Ogata couldn't help but let out a low cry of pain as he felt pain in his right arm.
After using all his strength to fend off the attack, Ogata finally saw clearly what the thing that was attacking him was.
It's a lock.
Lock sickle - The handle of the sickle is connected to a chain with a metal weight attached to the end.
After seeing that his attack failed, Kotaro pulled the chain and took back the sickle he had just thrown.
The chain scythe used by Kotaro has an astonishing length, and the scythe connected to the chain is also longer and larger.
Looking at Kotaro's appearance at this moment, Ogata's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Kotaro's current appearance is quite strange.
The veins exposed outside the clothes popped out.
The skin appears dark red.
Ogata could vaguely see some thin gas similar to steam spurting out of Kotaro's body.
"Ogata Ittosai, feel lucky!"
Kotaro grinned, revealing a sinister smile.
"You are very lucky to have forced me to the point where I had to use the 'Yaksha Pill' and enter the 'Yaksha Realm'!"
"Not anyone has the ability to force me into the 'Yaksha state'!"
As Kotaro spoke, he squeezed the chain in his hand and turned the sickle like a windmill.
"I seemed to have caught something like a pill that you took just now from the corner of my eye." Ogata said softly, "Did you take that pill to become what you are now?"
"That's right!"
Kotaro's face was full of pride.
"This is the magic medicine that Master Enma has worked hard and spent decades to develop - Yaksha Pill!"
"As long as you take it and live for a while, you can greatly enhance the body's various abilities in all aspects!"
"We call the tyrannical state entered after taking this Yaksha pill the 'Yaksha state'!"
"Because Yakshamaru is quite precious, only Enma-sama and us, the Four Heavenly Kings, own Yakshamaru!"
"So not everyone has the opportunity to see this 'yaksha state'!"
"Go to Huangquan with a feeling of honor!"
After saying that, Kotaro threw the sickle that had been spinning towards Ogata.
Kotaro's attack was just as sharp as before.
After struggling to push it away, Ogata couldn't help but let out a low cry of pain again.
After retracting the scythe again, Kotaro kicked off his back foot and rushed behind Ogata at a speed that made Ogata look shocked. He waved the scythe and the round hammer tied to the bottom of the scythe towards Ogata.
Extremely violent fast attack.
"Because of you! We Shiranui will be severely punished by the shogunate in the future!"
"I will also be punished unimaginably for this!"
"You really can't die even ten thousand times!"
"You mentioned Amachi just now. Is it because of that Amachi that you decided to go against us Shiranui?"
"Since it's for Amachi! Then fight me with all your strength! Come and defeat me!"
If any onlookers watched the battle from Ogata to the top of the castle tower from beginning to end, they would be surprised by now.
Whether it was the initial battle with one against a hundred, or the subsequent battles with powerful ninjas such as Gentaro and Shirataro, Ogata has always been able to do it with ease.
Until now, Ogata has not had any wounds on his body.
But now, facing Xintaro's attack alone, Ogata was completely suppressed and beaten, and he didn't even have the strength to fight back.
Whenever Ogata saw an opportunity and prepared to launch a counterattack, Kotaro would launch an attack towards Ogata first before taking action, leaving Ogata with no chance to counterattack.
"it's useless!"
Kotaro let out a series of wild laughs.
"Faced with me entering the 'Yaksha Realm', you have no chance of winning!"
"No matter how hard you try, you can't be my opponent!"
Kotaro didn't say a word, but he would pour an extremely fierce attack on Ogata in front of him.
"You want to protect that rebellious ninja Atachi? Then you can't do it with just this little skill!"
"Shut up!" Ogata gritted his teeth and yelled angrily. He saw the opportunity, turned the blade of Daishiten's sword, pointed it at Xintaro's chest, and used the "Master Level" Bird Thorn.
However, facing the "Bird Sting" used by Ogata, Kotaro easily deflected it with the sickle in his hand.
"One of the 'Four Heavenly Kings' in Shiranui - Kotaro is here!"
"I came to Kyoto this time, firstly, to complete the task of guarding Nijo Castle, and secondly, to hunt down that traitorous ninja Atachi!"
"If you want to save A-Machi, just kill me!"
"Of course - you have to have that ability!"
After telling Ogata this series of taunts, Kotaro jumped back a few steps, and then waved the sword in his hand again.
The sickle cut the air and struck towards Ogata.
Kotaro's long-range throw was far more powerful than any of the previous ones.
Although Ogata had raised his two swords in time to intercept, he still could not stop the flying sickle.
The blade of the sickle cut a large gash in Ogata's left arm.
"Tsk..." After glancing at the big gash on his left arm, Ogata's face sank, "Can't you even stop... a 'Master Level' Blade...!"
There was no time to deal with the injury on his left arm. After gathering his energy, Ogata jumped towards Kotaro and raised the two swords in his hands.
Use "Water Drop" with both hands at the same time.
"I can easily block an attack with your strength!"
Kotaro laughed and swung his sickle towards Ogata's two swords.
Kotaro holds the scythe with only one hand.
However, using only one hand, Kotaro blocked Ogata's sword so easily.
Ogata's "Water Fall", which was used with both swords at the same time, had no stopping power.
However, the most powerful sword technique that he used with all his strength was easily blocked by Kotaro with one arm.
His full blow was actually blocked by the opponent with one arm - Ogata's face became uncontrollably heavy.
"The 'Yaksha Realm' is indeed too powerful."
"As soon as you enter the 'Yaksha Realm', the battle will immediately become boring."
After taunting Ogata again, Kotaro dodged in front of Ogata, shook the hammer at the bottom of the scythe, and hit Ogata's chest.
After Kankan raised his arms to block the hammer, even though he held it back, a cry of pain still flowed out from Ogata's teeth.
——A stimulant...
Ogata thought to himself as he moved the five fingers of his left hand and relaxed the hand that was sore and numb from just receiving Kotaro's attack.
After a battle, Ogata finally understood what the "Yakshamaru" that Kotaro was talking about was.
Probably something similar to a stimulant.
It's just a very powerful stimulant.
It directly pushes the various functions of the body to extremely high levels.
The various functions of the body are greatly enhanced, directly becoming a superman - this is the state of Yaksha.
Just when Ogata was thinking about how to deal with the enemy——
"It's so boring..."
Looking at Ogata who was panting violently in front of him, Kotaro played with the sama in his hand in boredom.
"I'm actually very curious, what is your relationship with that rebellious ninja of Atachi?"
"Are you Atachi's husband?"
"Or are you and Amachi actually nothing, just unrequited love for Amachi?"
"Forget it, no matter what, Atachi must be a very important person to you, otherwise you wouldn't have done such a thing as storming Nijo Castle."
"I changed my mind!"
A cruel smile appeared on Xingtaro's face.
"I'm not in a hurry to kill you!"
"I'm going to leave you half my life!"
"Then catch that traitorous ninja Atachi!"
"I'm going to torture Amachi to the fullest in front of you!"
"That guy Atachi doesn't have any other abilities, but he has a very good face, and his breasts and butt are also big."
"I'll torture A-Machi half to death, and then take you and A-Machi back to Shiranui, so that you can see with your own eyes how we use the 'peeling' punishment to deal with rebellious ninjas!"
"Only by doing this can I relieve the hatred in my heart!"
The expression on Xingtaro's face became particularly ferocious.
"It's all because of you bastard! I don't even know what to do to save Nijo Castle from being attacked by others!"
"If I don't torture you very hard, it's really hard to understand my letterhead's hatred!"
"I'll give you a chance now."
Kotaro stretched out his left index finger and pointed downward.
"Kneel down and beg me for mercy!"
"In this way, I might be able to consider that when I capture A-Machi and torture him later, I will allow you to experience A-Machi's body a little before you die."
In addition to being ferocious and cruel, Kotaro's face also showed pride.
It was the feeling of having a winning ticket and playing with a plaything that was destined to be won.
…
…
"……Shut up."
…
…
Ogata said in a calm tone.
"I will not let you capture Atachi, nor will I lose to you!"
Kotaro didn't notice - there was a strange light shining in Ogata's eyes.
"I have sworn an oath."
"I will defeat all the enemies of Atachi!"
"I will make Amachi smile happily like before."
"This is my oath!"
"And it's an oath that must be fulfilled now!"
The strange light in Ogata's eyes began to emerge bit by bit.
What Ogata said just now made Kotaro very disdainful.
Kotaro sneered:
"You said swearing?"
"Who did you swear this oath to?"
"A god or a Buddha?"
"No..." The strange light in Ogata's eyes became more intense.
At this time, Kotaro also noticed the strange light in Ogata's eyes, and the expression on his face changed slightly.
"It's not an oath to gods and Buddhas."
"It's not like swearing to the devil."
"But swear to my sword and soul!!"
The strange light that appeared in Ogata's eyes shined out at this moment.
Xingtaro didn't know if it was his imagination...
He always felt... Ogata's momentum seemed to have changed at this time...
"snort!"
Kotaro ignored Ogata's change in aura and sneered disdain again.
"Stop talking so shamelessly!"
"Now that you have entered the 'Yaksha Realm', there is an insurmountable gap in my strength."
"No matter how hard you struggle, how can you defeat me?"
"Do you think you can defeat me by roaring like a lost dog?! Can you protect that rebellious ninja Atachi?!"
"I can!!"
Ogata's answer was simple and clear.
But the strong spirit that showed in his tone of wanting to challenge Kotaro head-on made Kotaro couldn't help but feel a bit of astonishment on his face.
"Hmph! How dare you say that!"
"You were beaten so hard by me just now that you couldn't fight back, and now you're talking to me like this!"
"Let me tell you a fact! Every attack I just made actually only used 50% of my power!"
"You can't even resist my 5-success power, how can you have the confidence to tell me that you can defeat me?!"
After saying that, Kotaro flashed and rushed directly in front of Ogata.
"Fall down! You stupid guy!"
At the same time as he said these words, Kotaro swung his sickle and slashed at Ogata's chest.
What Xintaro didn't expect was that his attack was held firmly by Ogata's great freedom.
Ogata's sword attack was fast and heavy. After Kotaro's sickle collided with Ogata's Daizhi, Ogata was not injured as he thought because he could not withstand his attack, or was directly shocked.
Take a few steps back.
Ogata's feet were still firmly planted on the ground, not taking a step back.
The person who was shocked to retreat was Kotaro.
Kotaro was shaken back a few steps by the repulsive force from the sickle, and his body became unstable.
Kotaro's face was full of horror at this time.
Because of the attack just now, Kotaro used 70% of his power.
When he only used 5 successes just now, Ogata had no power to fight back.
But now that he had used 70% of his power, he was easily held up by Ogata, but he was so shocked that he couldn't even stand firm.
At this moment, Kotaro suddenly saw the strong and strange light in Ogata's eyes.
Looking at the strange light in Ogata's eyes, Kotaro said in horror:
"Ogata Ittosai! What happened to you?! Why can you suddenly block my attack when I have entered the 'Yaksha Realm'?!!"
Just when Kotaro, who had taken a few steps back, had just stood up, Ogata tightened his grip on the Daisakuten in his right hand and slashed straight at Kotaro.
"I won't lose to you!!"
The knife cut through the air and struck at Xingtaro. The powerful power contained in it made Xingtaro's expression change several times.
Because Ogata's slash was too fast, Kotaro couldn't dodge it, so he could only raise the scythe in his hand, intending to directly receive Ogata's slash.
The scythes of Daishiten and Kotaro collided heavily.
The moment the two swords collided, Kotaro's expression changed instantly.
"My heart is focused on nothing! My heart is empty!!"
Unable to block Ogata's slash, Kotaro held the scythe that was knocked back and flew straight away.
