Yoshihisa originally wanted to have a "long-range vs. long-range" fight with Atachi and end Atachi's life with a shuriken.
But the few shurikens he had had were all used up in the battle with Genichi just now.
Therefore, he could only run quickly, get close to Ating, and kill him with a pistol.
"Ah, Ms. Atachi!"
A-Ming heard A-Zhu beside her calling her.
With the wakizashi tightly in his hand, Azuki said to A-machi in a slightly trembling voice:
"He, he's coming!"
The distance between A-Machi, A-Tsuku and Yoshihisa was only about 70 meters. In the blink of an eye, Yoshihisa flew over 10 meters in one breath.
Seeing this, A-Machi had no time to respond to A-Tsuku . She gritted her teeth, followed the direction where Yoshihisa was running, and pulled the trigger of the Suying in her hand again.
Just now, Ah-Ming had taken advantage of Yoshihisa's inattention and launched surprise attacks on him twice but both failed. And now, how could he succeed if he shot directly in front of Yoshihisa's face?
When Yoshihisa saw Atachi pointing the pistol at him again, he immediately looked closely at the movements of Atachi's fingers.
When he saw that Atachi's index finger on the trigger began to bend, he immediately dodged to the side - and sure enough, Yoshihisa avoided Atachi's shooting again.
The bullet missed once again - a hint of anxiety and panic began to emerge uncontrollably in Ating's eyes.
Apart from Motoya and Kasumagari, the only weapons left on Atachi were the wakizashi around his waist for self-defense and a few shurikens.
She didn't think that she could defeat Yoshihisa just by relying on the wakizashi on her waist and a few shurikens.
Short gun shooting - this is the most powerful means of attack that Ating currently has.
However, this attack method that she relied on deeply was completely ineffective against Jijiu...
——Tsk…I can’t hit him!
As Yoshihisa was getting closer and closer and he could already see the detailed locations of the age spots on his face, beads of sweat oozed from Atachi's palm holding the gun.
——Give it a try...!
A-Ming's cheeks were slightly bulging due to clenching his teeth, and there was a flash of determination in his eyes.
The enemy is approaching, and there is no time to think about countermeasures.
Instead of firing in bursts, he took out Kasumi and fired at Yoshihisa continuously. This was the only method that Atachi could think of that might work...
With the resolution to "give it all", Atachi raised her left hand, preparing to take out the Kasumi that Ogata had temporarily entrusted to her for safekeeping.
--Um?
But just as she raised her left hand, Ating's beautiful eyes suddenly widened.
She suddenly remembered.
The fragmented and hazy impressions in my mind suddenly condensed into clear memories at this moment.
She recalled - she had... on her body... besides the firearms and the wakizashi and shuriken on her waist, she also had another weapon!
Same...if combined with the short gun in her hand, maybe it can defeat Yoshihisa's weapon!
"...Azuki."
A-Machi lowered her voice so that only she and A-Tsuku could hear it, and spoke quickly to the girl next to her.
"Listen to my orders later. Once you hear my orders, throw all the shurikens you have at Yoshiku in one go. Remember to aim at Yoshiku's head."
After saying this, Ating let go of his left hand that was about to reach into his arms, and once again tightly grasped the handle of Suying's gun with both hands.
What is Miss Atachi going to do? After listening to the brief instructions just given by Atachi, this question immediately popped up in the mind of the confused Azhu.
Although she had doubts in her mind, she did not ask any questions to Ating, or just stood there motionless.
She nodded vigorously, then gently moved the ten fingers of both hands, ready to take out all the shurikens hanging on her waist and throw them at Yoshihisa after hearing Atachi's order.
suck……
A-Machi took a deep breath, held Suying steadily with both hands, held the muzzle of the gun flat, squinted one eye, held her breath, and aimed at Yoshihisa who was about to reach them.
Looking at the two girls... especially Atachi's actions, Yoshihisa's eyelids sank slightly, his brows knitted slightly, and he thought to himself:
—You want to wait until I get close enough to shorten my reaction time before shooting...
Yoshihisa speculated on the possible tactics that Atachi might use.
——Haha... naive... Even if you point the muzzle of a gun at my head, I can dodge it.
Yoshihisa, who was confident in his own skills, shouted "naive" in his mind with the tone of an elder scolding a younger person.
However, even though he said this in his heart, Yoshihisa did not relax or become careless at all.
His face was still tense, and he stared at every move of A-Ming and A-Zhu, ready to defend or dodge at any time if the two women made any strange moves.
hiss……
Atachi slowly exhaled the air he had just inhaled into his lungs.
The beautiful eyes, not daring to blink, stared at Yoshihisa's... steps.
Whether the plan she just made on the spur of the moment would succeed... one of the keys was whether she could manage the distance between them and Yoshihisa.
If they were too close, Yoshihisa might use his pistol to poke a hole in both her and Azuki's body before she could launch an attack.
If it is too far away, her "secret weapon" may not be able to hurt Jijiu.
The tremendous psychological pressure was like a huge rock pressing on Ating's chest, making her feel that her heart was beating very fast, as if it would jump out of her throat at any time.
——18 steps……
Beads of sweat appeared on Ating's forehead, and more and more beads of sweat oozed out of the palms of his hands holding the gun, slightly soaking the gun handle.
——15 steps…!
Azhu's face turned pale with fright, but she still stood firmly beside A-Ming and did not retreat.
——12 steps!
Yoshihisa was very close, and A-machi and A-chi could even clearly feel the murderous aura coming from him.
A-Machi, who had excellent eyesight, could even see every wrinkle on Yoshihisa's face and her image reflected in Yoshihisa's pupils.
——10 steps——!
After seeing that Yoshihisa had come within 10 steps of her, Atachi's beautiful eyes immediately burst into a dazzling brilliance!
There is no need for the brain to slowly give instructions to the body - the body responds before the brain does.
Ating exhaled , then reached behind his waist with his left hand and took out a cloth bag.
Atachi handed the cloth bag to the muzzle of Suying's gun, which was pointed at Yoshihisa, and then pulled the trigger without any hesitation!
Seeing Ating suddenly handing a cloth bag wrapped with something unknown to him to the muzzle of the gun and pulling the trigger, Yoshihisa subconsciously dodged to the side.
But the next scene made Jijiu shrink to the size of a pinhole out of shock.
Bang!
A scorching bullet flew out from the muzzle of Suying's gun and hit the cloth bag that was held in front of the muzzle. The cloth bag that was hit instantly exploded, revealing the things inside.
What's inside the cloth bag... is a bunch of powder!
A large amount of powder was seen spraying out of the exploded bag! These powders were like water drops poured out of a basin, "pouring" towards Yoshihisa in the form of mist!
Looking at the huge cloud of powder pouring down on him, Yoshihisa's expression finally showed a strong wavering expression that he had never seen since the battle with Atachi and others!
The distance between him and Atachi was only a few inches, and the powder that was splashed covered the entire 120-degree area in front of Atachi - at such a short distance, facing such an attack with such a large coverage area, even Yoshihisa could not avoid it!
Not knowing what the powder actually did, Yoshihisa quickly closed his eyes and held his breath.
His reaction was considered fast - but he was still a step too slow.
The moment before his eyes closed... a small cloud of powder floated into his eyes.
“Hmm…!”
Clearly, the powder that floated into Yoshihisa's eyes was only a tiny ball...but it was this tiny ball of powder that made Yoshihisa, who had seen many storms and had a will far stronger than that of ordinary people, cry out in pain uncontrollably.
Jijiu felt as if his eyes were pierced by countless thick needles, as if they were filled with a large amount of chili water. The pain made Jijiu want to dig out his eyeballs...
Tears kept flowing out, filling Yoshihisa's eyes.
This ball of powder is exactly the "Secret of Fuma Style" that Fuma gave to Atachi before she left last night.
When Fengma introduced his "Secret of Fengma Style" at the beginning, his original words were - as long as you sprinkle this into people's eyes, they will feel unbearable pain.
The severe pain from his eyes not only paused Yoshihisa's attack, but also made him lose what is almost the most important sense in a battle - vision!
"Azuki, now is the time!"
The moment Yoshihisa cried out in pain from the pain in his eyes, A-machi immediately shouted to A-tsuku, "Now is the time."
While shouting this, Atachi shook off the "original cloth ball" that was only a thin layer of cloth left on the palm of his left hand, then reached his left hand into his arms and took out Kasumi.
Jijiu was in a moment of confusion because his eyesight had been taken away - there was no better opportunity to attack than this!
With a gun in each hand, Atachi pointed both black muzzles at Yoshihisa's head.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Suying had just fired three bullets and only had one bullet left in the chamber, while Kasumigase's chamber was full.
Atachi fired all the bullets in two short guns at Yoshihisa's vital point: his head!
Azuki, who had been waiting for A-Machi's instructions, reacted promptly - she loosened her right hand that was holding the knife, reached behind her waist, grabbed all the shurikens hanging from her waist, and threw them at Yoshihisa.
Bullets and shurikens whizzed towards Yoshihisa's head from different trajectories!
Ating opened her eyes wide in anticipation and nervousness.
She placed all her hopes of winning on this one strike!
Yoshihisa... is indeed a subordinate that Toyotomi trusts and values...
His strong heart, tempered by many battles, and the extraordinary physical strength given to him by the "immortal power", burst out with powerful power at this moment.
After hearing Atachi shout "Azuki, now is the time", and hearing the slight "click" sound of metal instruments colliding when Atachi reached his left hand into his arms to take out Kasumagami, Yoshihisa immediately calmed his mind which was confused by the loss of his eyesight!
Yoshihisa, who guessed that A-machi, A-tsuku and the others were about to open fire on him, gritted his teeth and jumped to the side in a slightly embarrassed manner.
Yoshikyu's timely reaction saved his life!
Most of the bullets and shurikens shot and thrown by A-machi and A-tsuku whizzed past Yoshihisa's body.
The only things that successfully hit Yoshihisa were... 2 bullets and 1 shuriken.
The only shuriken that hit Yoshihisa was the left side of his abdomen.
Those two bullets... penetrated Yoshihisa's left shoulder and grazed his left cheek respectively.
The bullet that penetrated his left shoulder only produced a cloud of blood. The bullet that grazed Yoshihisa's left cheek... directly shattered Yoshihisa's entire left face...
The flesh on Yoshihisa's left cheek and several teeth on the left half of his face were directly scraped off, revealing the dark red muscles and the pale teeth on the left half of his face. Because the muscles on the left half of his face were also injured, Yoshihisa's lower jaw lacked sufficient muscle strength to pull, and his chin drooped uncontrollably, with his tongue sticking out.
With half of his face skin blown off, Yoshihisa looked like a devil from hell.
If...the anticipation and nervousness in Ating's eyes just now were as strong as before...then the astonishment in Ating's eyes now must be just as strong.
After being hit by her "powder attack", Yoshihisa was still able to dodge her and Azuki's attacks - the impact of this scene was so strong that both A-machi and Azuki were stunned.
In terms of the ability to withstand "accidents", A-Machi is much stronger than A-Tsuku after all.
After a brief moment of shock, A-Machi came back to his senses before A-Tsukushi.
"Azuki, back off!"
While reminding Azhu to quickly retreat from where he was standing, Amaji jumped back first and temporarily transferred Kasumi from his left hand to his right hand, then reached into his belt with his free left hand, intending to take out the bullets and reload the gun chamber.
After being reminded so loudly by Atachi, Azhu came to his senses belatedly and followed Atachi to jump away from his current position, moving away from Yoshihisa.
Yoshihisa tried to open his eyes, but every time he tried to pry open his eyelids, the pain in his eyeballs would instantly double.
In desperation, Jijiu simply gritted his teeth and made up his mind - let it be without eyesight!
The fact that Yoshihisa was able to avoid the attacks of A-Machi, A-Tsuku and the others just now was actually due to some luck.
At this moment when he has no sight... Yoshihisa has no confidence that he can dodge all the sniper attacks from Atachi and the others by relying on hearing alone!
These two women must be dealt with immediately - Yoshihisa shouted this in his heart, pricked up his ears, listened carefully to the footsteps of Atachi and the others, and identified their location by the sound.
Even with the interference of the sounds of rain, wind, and the constant pain in his eyeballs, Yoshihisa was able to quickly hear and confirm the direction of the sounds of A-machi and A-tsuki kicking the dust and gravel under their feet.
Yoshihisa raised his left foot and stomped hard on the ground in front of him. Using his left foot to exert force, he twisted his waist and abdomen and threw the pistol in his hand towards A-machi and A-tsuki who were trying to distance themselves from him!
Whoosh whoosh——!
The pistol spun and flew straight towards the two women.
One can imagine how powerful the pistol would be if Yoshihisa threw it with all his strength.
The wind pressure caused by the spinning pistol and the momentum it brought when it flew straight towards them all made the two women's faces change.
Without any instructions or thinking, the two girls jumped to the left and right, driven by their instinctive desire to survive.
A-Machi is taller than A-Tsuku and has more flesh on her body in some parts, so A-Machi's weight is obviously much higher than A-Tsuku. Therefore, Yoshihisa can barely recognize the identities of the two women based on the size of their footsteps.
Yoshihisa threw his pistol towards the direction where the footsteps were heavier...that is, towards Atachi.
Because the pistol was not coming directly at him, Azhu jumped to the side and successfully avoided the pistol.
Atachi, who also jumped to the side, was not so lucky...
The tip of the spinning pistol brushed past Ating's right thigh as he jumped away, scraping off a lot of flesh on his thigh.
Although Ating tried his best to hold it in, the pain of his flesh being torn off still made him moan in agony from between his clenched teeth.
Atachi's moans... were the perfect "locator" for Yoshihisa.
Yoshihisa rushed over like a gust of wind, and pounced on Ating who was lying on the ground and had not yet stood up.
Yoshihisa's right hand, like a pair of iron clamps, tightly pinched Ating's left shoulder. His five fingers, like bear claws, deeply penetrated into the flesh of Ating's left shoulder, and directly pinched out five small bloody holes on Ating's delicate skin.
Five fingers directly pinched out five small bloody holes - you can imagine how great Yoshihisa's strength is.
Ating felt as if the bones in his left shoulder would be crushed at any time. He could no longer bear it and screamed in pain.
However, no matter how painful it was, the pain in his left shoulder and leg also aroused Ating's ruthlessness.
Atachi's expression became a little ferocious. She swung her right hand and shook off Kasumi who was held in her right palm along with Suying.
As she was retreating and reloading, she only had time to load three new bullets into Suying.
After getting rid of Kasumagami, who was currently out of bullets in the gun chamber, Atachi lifted up Suying and pointed the muzzle of the gun at the forehead of Yoshihisa, who was now on top of her!
Atachi's counterattack was timely and fierce - but Yoshihisa had already anticipated her actions.
Yoshihisa, who expected that Atachi would give him a "zero-distance shot", had been listening carefully to the sound of the metal instrument being lifted.
After hearing a subtle "crackling" sound and feeling a slight wind pressure as if something was being lifted in front of him, Yoshihisa immediately turned his head away.
Bang!
The bullet hit the side of Yoshihisa's head and flew into the sky.
Although the whizzing bullet failed to open Yoshihisa's crown, it did blow off Yoshihisa's left ear. The bloody ear detached from Yoshihisa's face, flew high into the air, and then fell to the ground not far away.
Atachi's close-range shot not only knocked off Yoshihisa's ear.
The muzzle of the gun was pointed at his head... The deafening sound of the gunshot made Yoshijiu's head dizzy and his ears buzzing... The pain made Yoshijiu involuntarily let out a low cry of pain.
"Hmph...!" Yoshihisa shook his head and headbutted Atachi's right hand that was holding Suying with his forehead.
Ating felt like he was hit by an iron ball and let out a low cry of pain. The five fingers of his right hand loosened involuntarily, and the Suying in his palm was knocked away.
After disarming Atachi, Yoshihisa raised his left hand high and clenched it into a fist as big as a bowl without taking a breath or resting.
Because his right hand was tightly grasping Atachi's left shoulder, Yoshihisa was able to judge the approximate position of Atachi's head and chest...
Just as Yoshihisa was about to raise his left fist and smash Atachi’s pretty face into a flat surface—
Bang bang bang!
Although his ears were still buzzing from Atachi's "zero-distance shooting" just now, Yoshihisa could still barely hear it - on his left, there were footsteps approaching!
Along with the sound of footsteps, there was also the sound of sharp blades breaking through the wind!
Even though he had no eyes to see, Yoshihisa quickly guessed who the attacker was.
Yoshihisa quickly switched from offense to defense, and blocked the direction of the sound with his left hand that was about to hit Atachi's pretty face.
Swish!
Azuki, who came to support and rescued Atachi, swung her wakizashi and chopped at Yoshihisa's head, but due to Yoshihisa's timely defense, her wakizashi only sank into Yoshihisa's left arm.
Azhu's swordsmanship was not very sophisticated, so her sword failed to cut off Yoshihisa's entire left arm. The blade stopped after it sank into the middle of Yoshihisa's forearm.
The pain from the successive injuries had made Yoshihisa's face a little pale.
The pain in my eyes...is getting a little better now.
Jijiu tried to open his eyes a little bit - everything in his field of vision was still blurry. The world in front of him turned into a distorted saucepan of mixed colors.
But even so, Yoshihisa could still barely make out the figure.
After roughly figuring out Azuki's position, Yoshihisa ignored the fact that the knife was still stuck in his left arm, raised his hand to grab Azuki's left shoulder, and pressed Azuki to the ground like Atachi.
"...Finally... I caught you two."
Yoshihisa lowered his head and whispered the devil's whispers to the two women who were pinned to the ground by him with one hand each...
