Volume 8: Ittosai Chapter 689: A-Ming and Isshiki-ka stare at each other
"What's going on?!" The commander of the 2nd Division had an expression of disbelief, his eyes wide open as he looked at Ogata, who now had two new swords in his hands.
He quickly looked in the direction where the two knives had been thrown.
However, he just turned his head——
Bang!
His head was like a watermelon falling to the ground, shattered from the center of his eyebrows to the back of his head. Blood and brain matter spurted out from the broken back of his head, splashing all over a musketeer behind him.
The commander of the 2nd Division, whose head was physically blown up, fell to the ground like a puppet with its strings pulled out.
With the words "Ayi, go on" and the 2nd Division commander's head being blown up as the opportunity, everyone discovered that the direction where the 8th Division was located was now unusually noisy.
Screams and screams were heard continuously.
In the direction of Unit 8, there appeared an old man holding two swords, a man with glasses holding a katana that glowed purple, and a sturdy man carrying a large sword.
The three of them used their strength to defeat the musketeers of the 8th Division, who were already frightened by their low morale, and threw them into disarray.
Behind the three of them, a beautiful woman was holding a musket that looked very different from an ordinary flintlock. She was still in a shooting posture, and the smoking muzzle was just pointing at the position where the commander of the 2nd Group had just stood.
Although this beautiful woman could not defeat the enemy's large army as easily as the old man, the man with glasses and the strong man, but in terms of killing the enemy, this beauty is actually better than these three.
After blowing up the commander of the 2nd Division with a single shot, the beautiful woman quickly replaced the empty musket in her hand with a musket behind her, and then pointed the muzzle at a guy in the distance who looked like the commander.
Bang!
The gunshot rang out, and the man's head shattered like the head of the commander of the 2nd Squad.
Two guns took away their two commanders, and the troops, which had finally restored some order, fell into chaos again.
Anyone with a brain would know how terrifying this beautiful woman is and how much of a threat she poses to them.
Three Iga ninjas who happened to be hiding in a nearby tree spontaneously pounced on the beautiful woman, intending to eliminate this great threat.
They threw more than ten shurikens at the beautiful woman in one breath like sprinkling water.
But just as these shurikens were about to pierce the beautiful woman, the old man who had launched the most fierce attack and hit their troops the hardest and worst, seemed to have eyes behind his back. He turned back a step and stood beside the beautiful woman.
Ding, ding, ding, ding...
A sound like hammering iron was heard.
The old man knocked down all the shurikens that were stabbing the beautiful woman without any hesitation.
At the same moment the old man blocked the shurikens for her, the beautiful woman reached into her arms, pulled out a pistol, and pointed it at the three ninjas.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
…
… …
Soemon now felt severe pain in his back.
In the previous round of concentrated shooting, at least 10 bullets hit him, and almost all of them hit his back.
But these injuries are not worth mentioning to Zuoemon now.
Firstly, he was very lucky. None of the bullets hit his head. So even though the wound on his back was so painful that he could hardly control his expression, these bullets would not kill him. After a while, these injuries would heal.
Secondly, the pain in his back was not even a fraction of the pain he was feeling in his heart.
He was the person closest to Ogata just now.
As round after round of bullets stirred up the dust on the ground, Zuoemon happened to be covered by the dust.
Therefore, he was probably the only person among the people present, besides Isshikika, who saw clearly what Ogata had just done.
He put the woman in his arms to the ground, and then pulled out the two knives that were about to fall on his head - the monster completed the above series of actions almost in an instant.
The moment the two swords were unsheathed, Soemon, who had seen countless swords, immediately realized at a glance that these two swords were definitely not ordinary ones.
And the scenes that happened to Zuoemon next perfectly confirmed his guess.
It seemed as if Ogata was already very familiar with the two swords. After grabbing the two swords, he immediately began to dance with them without any sense of awkwardness.
The light from the two knives formed an invisible light curtain, isolating all the flying bullets from him and Isshikika.
All the bullets flying towards Ogata and Isshiki were either bounced away or shattered into pieces like snow hitting flames.
After chopping off all the bullets, Ogata's two swords were intact, without a single cut caused by the flying bullets.
Before Zuoemon could fully recover from the shock, he heard screams coming from the 8th Unit, as if an unknown group of people were attacking them.
Just now, when Ogata was holding a broken sword, he had beaten him without any chance to fight back, and now he had two brand new swords... Zuoemon didn't dare to think about it any further.
In front of him was Ogata, who had acquired two new swords, and behind him was a group of unknown people whose number and background were unknown, reinforcing Ogata. Soemon's brain made a new decision without much thought.
"Yahbei! You lead Team 1 and Team 2 to hold back the enemy! Everyone else retreat! Everyone else retreat!"
Soemon no longer had the smug look he had before, and now acted like a lost dog. He pulled out and threw away the broken sword that was no longer necessary to keep in his body, picked up the large naginata that he had just thrown on the ground, and fled in panic away from Ogata.
Soemon now had only one thought in mind - the mission to kill Ogata was completely impossible to succeed. Run! Run as many people as possible! Save as many people as possible!
The Hachibei he just called out was the name of the commander of the 2nd Division.
Zoemon doesn't know it yet - the remains of the commander of the 2nd Division are starting to get cold...
In fact, it doesn’t matter who he chooses as the fourth place.
After all - sending a group of sheep to stop a dragon, is it possible to stop it?
…
…
Looking at Ogata, who was holding two swords and standing in front of her like an unshakable mountain, Isshiki couldn't remember how many times she had shown a look of deep shock tonight.
Until just now, Isshikika had always believed that using a sword to smash and deflect the rain of bullets one by one was only a fantasy of people who knew nothing about swordsmanship...
After a brief shock, Isshikika was finally brought back to reality by the pain coming from her buttocks.
"pain……"
Isshikihua grinned slightly and rubbed her buttocks with her hands.
Just now, Ogata whispered to her, "Ms. Isshiki, please come down for a while," and then he loosened his left hand and let go of Isshikika.
Her butt suddenly lost support, and Isshikika, who had no time to react, subconsciously loosened her arms that were originally around Ogata's neck, and then she performed a "free fall", and her plump butt came into intimate contact with the ground.
Fortunately, there was soft grass below and there was more flesh on my butt, so I didn't get hurt.
——Couldn’t you have reminded me earlier?
Isshikika couldn't help but complain weakly to Ogata in her heart.
Her hands were still rubbing her buttocks, when suddenly - her eyes blurred.
"Ms. Isshiki, hold on tight. I'll take you to safety."
A strong arm passed under her buttocks again, grabbed her left thigh and lifted her up.
…
…
Bang!
Under the cover of Genichi and others, A-Machi pulled the trigger again and killed another guy who looked like a commander.
At this point, all the bullets in her five Kentucky long rifles had been used up. If she wanted to continue the attack, she had to stop and reload.
With 5 bullets, he killed 5 people who Atachi thought looked like commanders, including the commander of the 2nd Division.
Therefore, although only five bullets were fired, the effect of these five bullets needs no further explanation.
Thanks to Ating's five bullets, the order of the musketeers was quickly broken down due to the loss of a large number of commanders.
Those who didn't want to fight anymore and those who wanted to continue fighting crowded together, shouting and howling.
While A-machi was supporting Ogata with her musket, she was also paying attention to Ogata's situation.
After seeing Ogata successfully catch the Daishakuten and Daijizai that she threw, Atachi immediately showed a relieved expression.
Because she had been paying attention to Ogata's current situation, she was naturally the first to see it... Ogata was holding a beautiful woman who looked familiar, and was moving towards them while killing the enemies who blocked his way.
After rushing to A-Machi and the others, Ogata shouted:
"A-Machi! Great, you're okay... Genichi-sama, Mamiya, Makimura, you're all here."
"I should be the one to say 'that's great'." Ating's eyes were slightly red, "I'm glad you're okay..."
"Ogata-kun." Genichi, who was standing by, slashed a rushing Iga ninja and showed an emotional expression to Ogata, "Looking at you... you must have been through a lot tonight."
"You all seem to have gone through a very long night just like me..." Ogata smiled bitterly and put down the Isshiki flower in his arms, "Let's talk about it in detail later! Master Genichi, please help take care of this girl! I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, Ogata turned and left.
"Brother Ogata." Makimura, who had not interrupted until now, called out to Ogata, "Where are you going?"
"Where are you going?" Ogata smiled at Makimura, "To catch someone who you just can't let go of."
After leaving these words, Ogata rushed into the enemy group again, and within a few breaths his figure disappeared.
After Ogata left, Atachi's gaze subconsciously turned to the beautiful woman that Ogata had just put down from his arms - Isshiki Ka.
At this time, Isshikika happened to raise her eyes and look at Atachi.
The two girls' eyes met in mid-air.
Genichi, who didn't know Isshikika, glanced at Isshikika and then looked away, returning his gaze to the direction Ogata had just left.
"Ogata-kun's actions... shouldn't be my illusion..." A hint of surprise appeared in Genichi's eyes.
…
…
Soemon led a group of people and ran away from the screaming place regardless of everything and direction.
Organizations and systems are now defunct in name only.
The people from each group mixed together randomly, retreating in no order at all... or rather, fleeing.
Soemon didn't have the leisure to blame his subordinates for losing their fighting spirit - after all, even he himself had no desire to fight anymore.
He turned his head and looked back again - there were only his subordinates with frightened faces behind him, but no trace of the monster.
This made Zuoemon's tense nerves relax a little.
Just when the tension in Soemon's heart relaxed,
Snap!
He heard the sound of leaves being shaken violently ahead of him.
The remaining color on his face disappeared in an instant, and he turned his stiff neck to look forward - the person he least wanted to see now jumped down from a big tree on the roadside in front of him, and then used gravity to cut the body of a musketeer in half from the right shoulder, and then stood still on the ground.
The screams that came one after another immediately hurt Soemon's eardrums.
“Aaaaaaah!”
"It's Shura!"
"Run! Run! Shura, come here."
…
Most of the musketeers around Soemon quickly turned 90 degrees, 180 degrees... in short, at various angles, and fled in different directions.
Only a very small number of people were left, determined to "not run away anymore", raised their guns and attacked Ogata.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang…
Their sporadic gunshots seemed so powerless under Ogata's knife.
Ogata had no interest in these ordinary soldiers.
He has only one goal.
Holding Daishakuten and Daijizai in his hands, Ogata lowered his center of gravity and ran towards .
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang...
While running, Ogata swung the knife in his hand rapidly, breaking or deflecting the bullets that hit him one by one.
The projectiles of this era were all round, which was a shape that was easy to split.
If there is a musketeer blocking the way, knock him to the ground.
After seeing Ogata rushing towards him, and seeing Ogata's running speed that was far beyond his reach, Zuoemon felt his hands and feet rapidly losing temperature...
——Never mind! Just die!
After letting out a desperate roar in his heart, Soemon swung the large naginata in his hand, ready to make a final stand.
He used all his strength and swung the knife towards Ogata.
This time, Ogata did not dodge.
Because he no longer has to worry about being crushed by a sword.
Ogata raised his left hand and said,
Muga's Two Swords Style: Blade Reversal!
clang!!
The tip of Daijizai's sword collided with the tip of Soemon's naginata.
In an instant, Zuoemon felt an overwhelming force flowing along the sword handle and throughout his body.
“Ah…!” A low cry of pain flew out of Zuoemon’s throat uncontrollably.
Soemon was totally unable to resist this tremendous force, and the large naginata in his hand was directly blocked. If Soemon had not gritted his teeth and held the blade tightly despite the pain in his five fingers, the large naginata in his hand would have been directly bounced out of his hand.
The large naginata was deflected, and with his door wide open, Soemon was approached by Ogata.
"...I just noticed that the speed at which your wounds are healing seems to be getting slower and slower."
A deep male voice, like the whisper of a devil, reached Soemon's ears.
Wuwo Two Swords Flow: Starfall.
Daishakuten and Daijizai attacked Soemon from two different directions with swords flashing.
Soemon hurriedly retracted the large naginata that had just been blocked in front of him and organized a defense.
However, his large naginata only blocked Ogata's first six attacks.
From the sixth strike, Soemon could no longer resist Ogata's strength and could not hold the great naginata steadily. The great naginata was bounced away, spinning in the air to a height of 2 or 3 floors before falling heavily to the ground.
With no weapons left in his hands, Soemon completely lost the ability to organize a defense.
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk…
Rays of sword light flashed across Soemon's body.
The remaining seven sword strikes of Seira all fell on Soemon's body.
The clothes in front of Soemon were instantly chopped into rags.
The first five strikes landed on Soemon's chest and abdomen.
The last two strikes swept across Soemon's shoulders from bottom to top.
Both of Soemon's arms were cut off at the roots.
Without the strength to fight anymore, Soemon's knees weakened and he fell to the ground.
But before his knees could touch the ground, a large hand suddenly thrust into his mouth. The force was so great that one of Soemon's front teeth was knocked out.
"It seems that you don't have any poison in your mouth... That's good. I have a lot of questions to ask you one by one."
