Under the night, Black Rope Island was filled with constant explosions and gunfire. In sharp contrast was the quiet night sky... and the calm sea.
It had been more than an hour since Fourteen and the others landed on the island, and there was less than ten minutes left before the retreat time set before they landed on the island, but now everyone... was locked in a battle with the crows.
Therefore, no one noticed that not far from the sea in front of Black Rope Island, the feint attack fleets of the Shinsengumi and Katsura faction that had been left behind by the Fourteeners before they landed on the island had just stopped functioning and fell into something like This night, it was as dead as the sea.
On the sea surface less than fifty meters opposite the feint attack team, several house-shaped boats loaded with cannons from the Maritime Forces of the Mikai Group that had been fighting these feint attack teams a few minutes ago were also pitch black and eerily quiet.
One of them returned to the cabin of the HDB ship. After the sound of a sword cutting through a human body and a short scream, the entire ship became quiet again.
What followed was the sound of unhurried and extremely regular footsteps and the sound of water dripping on the ground one drop after another.
This "creature" holding a bloody sword passed over countless corpses and came step by step to the deck outside the cabin. The deck was also filled with the corpses of the returning team members.
The same goes for the rest of the ships. Not a single person was left alive. This strange creature silently attacked and killed so many people in a very short period of time. The time was so short that no matter whether it was the Shinsengumi, Gui Yi faction or When we meet back to the group, we can even convey the signal.
"Sir..." A Narakuzu appeared in front of the "creature", knelt down on one knee and lowered his head: "No one survived the sea surface attack force of the Hui group. The sea surface feint attack force and response force of the Shinsengu group and Guiyi faction survived. , they dived into the bottom of the sea. We couldn't pursue them, but we disrupted their signals. They couldn't call for help, and they would be exposed sooner or later. There are still two remaining air units that have returned to the group..."
Before he finished speaking, the head and body of this Narakuzhong separated.
Ignoring the dead body of the Narakuzhong, the alien creature started and once again walked slowly towards the bow of the ship with unhurried and regular steps...
…
boom! boom! boom!
A Tiandao spacecraft in the sky is still bombarding the ground indiscriminately in order to bury everyone here.
In this kind of artillery fire, both the Shinsengumi and Katsura faction who landed on the island, as well as the Kaikai group suffered heavy losses.
It is worth mentioning that during the artillery fire, the battle between Nobuome and Sougo was stopped by Kagura, and the battle between the Mikai Group and the Shinsengumi in the forest was stopped by the artillery fire, both of which suffered heavy losses.
All that's left is the battle between Gintoki and Odori, and the battle between the few remaining Shinsengumi team members, the Katsura faction, the Mikai team and the crows on the cliff where Gintoki landed on the island.
Gintoki, who barely managed to avoid a bombardment from the sky, suddenly noticed the huge rocks blown away by the bombardment flying straight towards him.
Without any hesitation, Gintoki stood up and thrust forward with force the wooden sword in his hand.
The huge stone shattered with the sound, and the wooden knife that passed through the stone directly scattered the jade beads on Lu's neck hidden behind the stone.
At the same time, the sharp blade of the Zen staff in Yuri's hand also scratched Gintoki's shoulder, but it was just a skin injury.
"It's time to judge you, Shiroyasha."
At the end of a round, Hagi took a step back and distanced himself from Gintoki, holding the sharp Zen staff in his hand with both hands: "No matter what that man (Sasaki) is planning, no matter how much you resist, this country will not change. "
Gintoki, who suddenly noticed something, quickly turned around and struck a horizontal slash behind him! The three Naraku who were just about to sneak attack from behind were sent flying.
Taking advantage of this gap, Hagi suddenly stabbed at Ki, but Gintoki was unable to dodge, and was succeeded by Hagi, injuring his shoulder.
However, he didn't pay attention to the pain, and stabbed out with the wooden sword in Gintoki's hand, but... it didn't hurt Habi at all, but was blocked by the sharp blade of the Zen staff in Hagi's hand.
Hazy, who stepped back again to distance himself, glanced at the approaching Tiandao spacecraft in the sky.
"But you can be happy, Shiroyasha. Your call sign has reached the sky. Not on the ship... but you have come down... no, have you gone to the sea?"
Listening to Hagi's words, Gintoki suddenly thought of something and quickly looked in the direction of the sea. After seeing the deathly silent feint attack troops in the distance, his expression changed instantly and his pupils were shaking.
Before Gintoki could say anything, a cannonball was fired from the spaceship in the sky.
boom! ! !
The explosion swept Gintoki's entire body inside.
Elsewhere, Sougo looked at Kagura who was standing between him and Nobuya, and said unhappily: "Little girl, what do you want to do? Get out of the way!"
"Do you really want me to get out of the way, Aru?" Kagura stared at Sougo seriously, "If you really want to fight, then continue, but if you are still confused, don't fight. If you both really want to If I try my best, I won't be able to stand here just now after I stopped you two. If this continues, both the black police and the white police will be defeated, Aru. Now is not the time to try our best."
"Who do you think is to blame for this!" Sougo retorted, "These people..."
"I don't know about this group of people," Kagura interrupted Sougo, and then looked at Nobuhime behind her, "but I know about her, Aru. I don't know what she has done before, But I know who she is now, Aru! She is not a bad person, such a person...is qualified to live to atone for her former self."
Nobunaga put the knife in her hand on Kagura's neck and said calmly: "Do you still think so even if I kill you with a sword from behind? You don't know anything at all. I am just such a person, who can do such a thing. A person who cultivates things.”
"It's okay Aru. If you really think so, it's up to you. But..." After saying that, Kagura turned around and looked at Nobume with gentle eyes, "Stop lying to yourself. This is a free planet. , a planet Aru that can live on its own terms.”
Listening to Kagura's words, Nobuome thought of the past bit by bit. She was trained in Amaterasu to be a cold-blooded killer who only obeyed orders, met that person (Songyang) again in prison, and met that person for the first time. (Sasaki), the unfinished mission... and the sword that betrayed the Tendo people and became that man (Sasaki), eating donuts together...
Before she could finish thinking about it, Nobunaga suddenly noticed something and turned her face to look at the coast. After seeing the figure walking towards the coast holding a knife step by step, she took out the knife without thinking. The communicator spoke: "Notify all members of Black Rope Island now! Leave the battlefield immediately! The air force...while containing the enemy fleet, cover the retreat of the ground forces! Quick!!"
At the same time, the remaining team members on the regrouping spaceship in the air quickly spoke after hearing Nobume's contact: "But...but the commander said that we must fight to the end until all enemies are annihilated!"
Looking at the man wearing a bamboo hat and holding a sharp knife, who was casually slashing and killing without distinguishing between friend and foe. He was wearing a mask that was white and black, and the boundaries between black and white were blurred and gradually blended together to completely cover his face. Xinnu's expression Desire gradually became more serious.
"Anyway! Sir, I probably won't be able to come back. From now on, saving your own life is the top priority! Even if... the Hui Group no longer exists."
At the same time, Sasaki, who was already covered in scars in the forest and had just killed a Narakuzu, also heard Nobunaga's voice from the communicator.
"Please wait a moment! Nobunaga! What is going on?! Nobunaga!"
"Isaburo, the last possibility is the same as you thought, it's him..."
As soon as Nobunaga's voice came, the communicator in Sasaki's hand was knocked out by a Naraku who rushed from the side.
However, Sasaki didn't pay attention, as if he had heard some good news, the corners of his mouth slightly raised with a ferocious expression, and he killed all the Naraku in front of him.
"Hitchhiking... caught up."
…
"Hey! What do you mean?! What is he? Who is he?!" Sougo hurriedly asked Nobunaga, but just after he finished asking, he suddenly noticed the slowly approaching figure out of the corner of his eye.
The figure was unhurried, with several sword lights flashing in front of him from time to time. The people surrounding him... fell down one after another.
"Hurry up, hurry up." Xinnu turned around, "The existence that can destroy an entire country by one person...is here. Especially you, little girl, hurry up! This is not the place you should come to in the first place! You have no reason to come. This kind of place!”
After saying that, Nobunaga jumped down and rushed towards the man!
"Hey!" Sougo shouted, but then he suddenly discovered something - a feint attack force that had become silent on the sea at some point.
Sougo's eyes widened and his pupils were shaking. He gritted his teeth, clenched the knife in his hand, and jumped down to chase Nobunaga!
Nobunaga, who was the first to rush to the man, turned sideways and slashed down!
Click!
"Don't think of me as a weak creature like a crow."
The man who passed over the letter girl spoke calmly, and there was no warmth in his words.
Nobunaga, who maintained her sword-wielding posture, was stunned for a moment, and then...
puff-
Looking at her broken sword and dagger at the same time, and the wound on her abdomen that couldn't stop spurting blood, Nobunaga curled her lips, smiled miserably, and then knelt down.
Before falling to the ground, Nobunaga turned around and glanced at the back of the man who was slowly leaving.
thump!
In just one round, Nobunaga was defeated!
"asshole!!!!"
Sougo roared and rushed towards the man, but... just as he rushed in front of the man and before he slashed down, he found that the man in front of him had disappeared!
Clang! !
The man standing behind Sougo looked at the sword that was blocked by the sword that was stabbed behind him. There was a bit of appreciation in his words: "Hoo? The fighting instinct barely caught up and blocked the blow. Really? He is indeed the captain of the world-famous Shinsengumi 1st Team..."
Sougo instantly turned back and took a few steps back. He held the knife in his hands with both hands and looked at the man in front of him with a solemn expression.
Looking at the trembling blade and feeling the pressure on the man in front of him, Sougo suddenly thought of something - he seemed to have felt this way before! (Death flag chapter) Moreover, although this man's voice is extremely cold, it has a very familiar feeling!
"Haaah!!" Kagura, who had rushed down at some point, burst out and rushed towards the man.
"Wait! He is..."
Sougo thought of something and shouted quickly, but it was too late. In just a moment, Kagura was instantly counterattacked by the man, choked his neck and pushed him to the ground.
boom! !
"Ahem..." Kagura, who had smashed the entire earth into pieces, spit out a mouthful of blood and grabbed the man's hand with both hands, hoping to break free, but it had no effect at all.
"...Boss?" Only then did Sougo complete the words in his mouth.
Hearing the sound, Kagura's eyes widened instantly, and her pupils were shocked as she looked at the man in front of her.
"Why do you come here?" the man asked calmly, "Is there anything here that you need to risk your life to protect?"
After hearing the man's voice, Kagura... was stunned. This was Jiang Cheng's voice!
"Little...little uncle..."
