at the same time.
At home on Mingming Island.
"Ah...I'm sorry to bother you..."
Weimingyu stood at the door, turning his head and talking behind him with tears streaming down his face.
Under the body.
Chachawan stared at Mingmingyu's ankle, lurking in the grass in the courtyard, listening to the conversation between several people.
"Don't worry, Teacher Beimingyu." Shadai nodded confidently, raised the corner of her mouth and patted her chest:
"During your mission, Qianjuro and I will definitely keep an eye on this place!"
Hear the words.
"Hey, do I want to come too?" Senshouro's weak voice came from the side.
"Haha, it's okay!" Ignoring Senjuro's weak resistance, Sayo agreed.
She smiled and hugged Qian Shourou's neck, her whole body looked much more cheerful than before.
"…thank you so much."
After Weimingyu nodded, he turned back three times, carrying his own sun disk hammer, and walked out of the door worriedly.
See this.
After waiting for a while.
Chachawan's eyes lit up as he was lying in the grass!
——The chance to escape is now!
Previously, Weiming Island had guarded it very strictly, leaving no room for it to slip out.
Meow!
Under Sayo's surprised eyes, Chachamaru suddenly stood up from the grass and shrugged his shoulders.
The determined cat's head was pointed at the wall.
Move your limbs!
Uh-huh!
"Wait! Little cat!" Shadai was stunned for a moment, then quickly stretched out his hand and shouted towards the wall.
"Meow." Chachamaru climbed up the wall lightly. Its golden pupils looked back at Sayo, and then shook the small bag on its back.
He lowered his head and sniffed something in the air carefully.
Looking slightly sideways, he ran along the top of the wall in a certain direction.
——It has already memorized the location of Butterfly House and Tanjuro's scent.
Seeing Chachawan, he left without looking back.
"...Ah." Shadai stretched out his hand, his eyes froze, and his body gradually stiffened in place: "Run away..."
Her eyes gradually became dull, the corners of her eyes slowly turned red, and she muttered in a low voice:
"...Why is this...the promise I just made...
Senjuro stood beside her and patted her back comfortingly.
…
…
Butterfly House.
"Welcome back, Shinobu-sama!"
The hermits spoke to the dusty Butterfly Ninjas and took the luggage from their hands with a smile.
"Lord Chanahu, just give me the things..." Yin smiled and made a gesture of taking the things.
then.
"Yeah." Shannahu smiled and nodded.
Snap.
In the hidden embrace, a bald head suddenly appeared.
——?
He kept his smile and looked at Shanahu with some hesitation as he smiled politely and handed someone to him.
He lowered his head and looked at the bald cultist with a numb face and tears in his eyes.
"…Humanity?"
He remembered that Lord Shinobu went out this time to purchase medicine.
Yin fell into deep thought.
…
Under the eaves.
Anjuro, who was talking about something, saw the butterfly ninja opening the door, and his eyes lit up:
"oh!"
The red flame-like hair tips poked out of the shadow of the eaves, swaying slightly in the sunlight:
"Miss Shinobu is back!"
"If that's the case, then I should-"
Purgatory Anjojuro stood up, looked forward, drawled his voice, and moved his bright red eyes slightly.
Smiling, he looked at Tanjuro next to him expectantly, and blinked hard.
"Hmm!" His eyes were full of "Let me join the mission together!" ] meaning.
Tanjuro didn't answer Anjuro immediately. He looked at the letter again.
In the letter,
The last sentence was written by Tomioka Giyu.
[According to the description of the team members, the ghosts near the castle town are most likely to be the two of the upper strings]
[There are no free posts around my station, please arrive as soon as possible]
[urgent]
After reading the last word.
Tanjuro slowly put down the letter in his hand and looked towards the courtyard.
In the courtyard.
The three butterflies who unloaded their luggage talked for a while, and finally the butterfly ninja decided to let the inexperienced Kanzaki Aoi interrogate the believers.
then.
under the tree.
The girl was a little timid, but still persisted in her voice:
"Just tell me everything obediently and everything will be fine."
"If you understand," Kanzaki Aoi squatted in front of the bald believer and said with firm eyes, "I started asking."
"How many followers does the Eternal Bliss Sect have in total now?"
Kanzaki Aoi held a piece of paper in her hand:
"What's the name of your ancestor?"
"What is the purpose of suddenly recruiting a large number of believers?"
The bald cultist sat paralyzed and leaned on the roots of the tree, his limbs still bound, his eyes lowered, his dry lips wriggled, but he still made no sound.
This soft interrogation has no effect.
On the rooftop.
"The Eternal Bliss Sect..." Tanjuro slowly withdrew his eyes and frowned slightly.
The wolf has very good ears and can hear whispers clearly even across half the courtyard.
After eavesdropping for a while, Tanjuro knew what the Butterfly Ninja had gained from this outing.
——Mastered the clues to the first string, Tong Mo.
Thinking about it, he looked down at the letter in his hand.
One side is a clue and the other side is a discovery location.
After a while.
Tanjuro raised his head.
At the same time, Anjuro, who had been waiting patiently, seemed to finally be unable to hold it in any longer. He shouted bluntly:
"Mr. Kamado!"
Xingshou Lang's eyes were bright and his thick black eyebrows were raised:
"Let's go on a mission together!"
After the last time, he has been honing his sword skills, and his father also started teaching him again.
He was eager to verify the results of his efforts.
Hear the words.
"It's probably winding this time."
Tanjuro looked at Anjuro's clenched fist and raised it, and he reminded aloud: "The number of pillars is not enough."
"——That's better!" Xingjulang replied with a smile.
He has been taught by his mother since he was the eldest son.
He - is supposed to protect those around him.
…
…
soon.
"I'm going to see how Aoi is doing."
The butterfly ninja smiled. She walked through the courtyard and subconsciously glanced at where Tanjuro and Anjuro were sitting.
The two figures had disappeared, but there was a note on the floor.
With doubts in his mind, Butterfly Nin walked over lightly.
Picking it up, scanning it with her eyes, she unconsciously whispered:
"...Don't act alone?"
Butterfly Ren was stunned for a moment.
At this time.
In the courtyard in front of you.
Uh-huh!
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo yeah..."
Kanzaki Aoi's frightened scream suddenly came, scaring the Butterfly Ninja to look up quickly.
"Why is there a wild boar in the yard!?"
"Hey!" Kanzaki Aoi looked at the bushes in front of her in horror, and backed away in fear.
before.
Inosuke suddenly burst out of the bushes. He stood angrily in front of Kanzaki Aoi, with white steam spouting from his nose.
He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Aoi Kanzaki as hard as iron:
"You idiot!!"
The wild boar's head had several "well" characters bulging out in anger, and his muscles tensed up.
Just now, Inosuke, who had been squatting in the bushes, listened to Kanzaki Aoi's interrogation from beginning to end.
He had never seen anyone with such ink stains before, and he immediately became very angry and anxious.
"Eh—?!" Kanzaki Aoi was so frightened that she suddenly turned pale when she heard the wild boar speak.
Her white lips trembled up and down. She covered her mouth slightly in disbelief, and her eyes gradually became dull:
"...The wild boar has spoken..."
Whispering to himself.
At this time.
Snapped!
Inosuke put two fingers together and slapped the bald cultist in the face, but his eyes were fixed on Kanzaki Aoi:
"Watch it!"
Snapped! Snapped!
He poked his fingers back and forth hard, clenched his other fist angrily, and angrily scolded Kanzaki Aoi:
“If you want others to answer you, this is what you should do!!”
Said.
Snapped!
Inosuke grabbed the bald cultist by the collar, his muscles bulged, and he violently lifted the bald cultist up from the ground with one hand.
The wild boar's head suddenly approached, and its nose pressed tightly against the frightened face of the bald believer:
"Asshole! Tell me everything you know about what a bastard!"
His tone suddenly became low: "Otherwise, I will kill you!"
"Ahem...ho!" The bald cultist hung in the air, his face pale, looking at Inosuke who picked him up in horror.
My legs were shaking, and I was speechless.
Seeing this, Kanzaki Aoi quickly stretched out her hand, trying to push Inosuke away in a panic.
Uh-huh!
Inosuke suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Kanzaki Aoi.
Creaking…
He gradually tightened his hold on the bald cultist's hand, until it gradually turned into squeezing the other person's neck.
Snapped! Snapped!
The bald cultist rolled his eyes with horror. His hand unconsciously slapped Inosuke, and he struggled to squeeze out a sound from the bottom of his throat:
"...Tong...Tongmo!"
"...the name of the ancestor...Tong Mo!"
Hear the words.
boom!
As soon as Inosuke let go, the bald cultist, who was already exhausted from lack of oxygen, immediately fell to the ground and collapsed weakly.
Leaning on the roots of the tree, I tried my best to cover my neck with my tied hands, and breathed heavily.
He looked at Inosuke fearfully.
This guy can really kill himself.
before.
"Hmph, how about it." Inosuke crossed his arms and looked at Aoi Kanzaki, who was leaning over to care for the believers, with his nose raised:
"Have you learned it yet, idiot."
At the same time, Inosuke was thinking proudly:
——If I meet that guy with long hair and a bad mouth again, I won’t be at a disadvantage!
--Hahaha!
"You!" Kanzaki Aoi checked the situation of the believers and looked at Inosuke in surprise.
After calming down, Kanzaki Aoi also discovered that Inosuke was just a man wearing a boar hood.
only--
Her eyes were very confused.
How could there be such unqualified people in Butterfly House?
When Kanzaki Aoi looked at Inosuke again.
The other party was already humming, topless, and walked away.
"...Weird guy."
However, thanks to Inosuke's big fuss.
The bald believer answered all the questions that Aoi Kanzaki asked later in great detail.
…
soon.
Kanzaki Aoi's paper has been filled with dense information about the Eternal Bliss Sect.
"...Next, it's the question of Sister Ren."
Kanzaki Aoi sat in front of the bald cultist. She turned over the paper in her hand, glanced at the words on it, and read out:
"Is your ancestor's hair color white oak? The top of his head looks like blood has been splashed on it."
"Always smile carefree and speak calmly and softly."
"...The weapon is a sharp copper fan."
The bald cultist nodded feebly.
At this time.
A voice much sharper than Kanzaki Aoi came from behind:
“What’s the number in that guy’s eyes.”
At some point, Butterfly Ninja was already standing behind Kanzaki Aoi, listening to all the interrogations with a gloomy face.
Hearing this, the bald cultist struggled to raise his heavy eyelids and trembled his lips slightly:
"…one."
Hoarseness:
"…winding."
The butterfly ninja slowly raised his head.
The hands hidden under Butterfly Yuzhi's wide sleeves were clenched so hard that they were shaking.
…
…
One day later.
evening.
The sun gradually sets in the west.
Castle town.
tread!
A dark shadow passed over the area with weak sunlight, and he stamped on the ground and ran at top speed.
behind.
The two halves of Haori's figure ran quickly.
Click.
The blue sword blade lay horizontally at his side.
【Three types】
【Liu Liu dance】
Uh-huh!
Ukiyo-e-like waves rolled up from the blade, rushing forward quickly.
"Bah!" White steam escaped from the corner of Tomioka Giyu's mouth. He dragged the light of the sword and used swordsmanship and breathing techniques to spin and accelerate.
Ever since he spotted the ghost during the day, he had been chasing it non-stop.
But - the opponent's speed is too fast, and he can't catch up no matter what.
Why run.
Tomioka Giyuu was confused.
The deep pool-like eyes reflected the appearance of the evil ghost in front of him.
An open-chested short shirt, a hakama for fighting, Buddhist beads on his ankles, and striped tattoos all over his body.
——It is consistent with the ghost in the photo.
ahead.
"...Damn it!" Yiwozuo gritted his teeth and ran wildly. He looked sideways at Tomioka Giyu, who was chasing after him.
Lord Wuhan ordered him not to participate in the battle.
Yes, he believed that the reason why he couldn't swing his fist the night before was because Lord Wuhan was stopping him.
This made Yiwozuo, who was originally a fighting maniac, feel extremely irritated.
The guy behind him was very strong, Yiwozuo could sense it, and the fighting spirit in him was already overflowing!
but! Can't fight!
Under various annoyances.
He turned his head and shouted behind him:
"I'm not afraid of you! I didn't run away!"
For him, who longs to fight openly and honestly, running away is shameful and is something only a weak person would do.
Hear the words.
Tomioka Giyuu was startled for a moment.
While taking a breath, he asked quietly:
"Then why did you run away?"
"Ah?!" Yi Wo Zuo was so angry that he was so angry: "I didn't!"
As he spoke, he jumped on several rooftops and was far away in an instant.
Tomioka Giyuu fell into silence as he stared at Yiwozao's footsteps that never stopped.
Sudden.
boom!
In front of the Yiwo Seat, a flash of red flame-like light jumped onto the roof and turned into a straight line!
Come in quickly!
【Breath of Fire·Wu's Type】
Uh-huh!
"Fire Tiger!!" Purgatory Xingjulang lunged from directly in front of the Yiwo Seat, raising the blade in his hand to strike in advance!
Here comes another one!
Yiwozuo opened his eyes wide, and Xingshou Lang's fighting spirit was as strong as a ball of flames.
Still can't fight!
"It's so annoying!" He slammed his foot on the ground, twisted his body, immediately dodged the attack, and sprinted out at right angles to the two of them!
Whoosh!
No longer hesitating whether to fight, Yiwozuo cut off his thoughts and sprinted out with all his strength at a speed that was beyond human reach!
At this time.
Snap.
Yiwozao sprints right in front of the road.
Tanjuro lowered his Kakimaru blade and slowly stood on the ridge, his dark red eyes looking straight at the rushing Yiwoza.
boom!
Yiwozuo suddenly stepped on the roof, and smoke and dust suddenly rose, and gravel and rubble flew into the air.
