Chapter 16
Chapter 16
After dinner, it was time for everyone to practice freely. The director walked out swaggeringly with a racket between his hands, strolled around the playground twice, seeing that no one was paying attention, he walked out of the playground.The place he agreed with Miyabe Kanzo and the others was on the roof of a building not far from here.The weather is fine, the cool wind blows away the hot summer heat.The starry night sky looks high and far away, and a few wisps of white clouds are like thin gauze, making the moonlight more hazy and charming.When he walked downstairs, the chief executive looked up, and saw two slender figures standing on the roof, looking like two beautiful silhouettes from a distance.The director saw that there was no one around, and his figure had already climbed the stairs in a flash. His thin and flexible body passed by like the wind on the spiral stairs, soundlessly like a ghost.
"Hi, are you here early?" After the chief went up, he greeted with a smile.
"It's so slow!" Miyabe Kanzo said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time." He took a step forward and stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to shake hands with the chief executive, but suddenly his five fingers grabbed the chief executive's wrist like hooks, At the same time, a white light flashed in Heshang Yanzhai's hand, and he came straight to the chief commander's throat. There was a long sword, but the blade was as bright as moonlight.At this critical moment, the chief executive kicked Miyabe Kanzo's wrist, and the beat in his hand stood up, smashing the light of Kawagami Hikosai's sword.The skills of several people are as fast as lightning, making people dazzled, the light of the knife is flowing, and the figure is like the wind. In a short while, several people have exchanged several moves.The chief's body flew out quickly, but it was as light as a falling flower. He landed on the railing on the top of the building, and he saw that the shooting line had been broken inch by inch.
"It's you?" The chief executive's voice was not surprised, but rather desolate, with an old grudge that continued to be unreasonable and chaotic. He came through time and space, and he couldn't escape.
Kawagami and Miyabe wiped their faces with their hands, and their appearance changed in an instant. The boy on the left had long silver hair, tied behind him with a belt, and the color of moonlight flowed.On the other hand, the boy on the right has black curly short hair, but his eyes are somewhat evil, like a messenger of darkness.Their current names are Nioh Masaharu and Kirihara Akaya, but the chief executive is more familiar with their past, Maki, Izumi Mori and Kusaka Genzui. They are the descendants of ghosts and humans, possessing the lifespan of humans and the skills of ghosts.They used to grow up together and were close partners, but that misunderstanding made them meet each other and became sworn enemies.
"Boss, even if you escape to the end of time, it's useless. The blood of your clan needs you to pay with your life." Shinaki said.
The director general smiled coldly, "He really is a lingering guy! Come and take my life if you have the ability, don't play that little trick of sneak attack!"
"You don't have to be polite when dealing with an ungrateful person like you!" Jiusaka Xuanrui said coldly.
Hisaka Xuanrui exuded a murderous aura, his hair gradually turned white, his eyes turned from black to red, and his skin was also dyed a dazzling blood color.The boss knew that once he turned into a ghost, his mana would suddenly increase, and a little red light in his hand slowly grew into a red sword.The director clenched the racket tightly, the light green body of the racket was glowing with a faint light, and the broken strings were healed, but it was as crystal clear as moonlight.But his whole body was immersed in the faint moonlight, but his icy blue eyes became as dignified as the night sky.Maki and Izumimori showed his sword again.The chief's body turned into a silver arrow, splitting the night and rushing towards the opponent.The sword hit the racket and made a ding-dong sound, as if rings were hitting each other.With every move and every style, the light and shadow flowed like a dream, and the shattered moonlight turned into petals and flew in the wind, before disappearing without a trace like snowflakes.The director's flexible body dances on the red and white chessboard, every step is startling, but he always saves danger at critical moments.
Suddenly another figure joined the battle group. The black night clothes had been integrated with the night, and none of the three people who went all out noticed his arrival.Someone came to grab Jiusaka Xuanrui's vitals from behind, Jiusaka Xuanrui had no choice but to give up the chief, and stab out with a sword. Suddenly lengthened, and went straight to catch up with people.
"Yamazaki, get out of the way, you are not his opponent!" The chief yelled anxiously, forcing Sanaki back, flying around, and blocked in front of Yamazaki at the last moment, a bloody beam pierced through his body Then, with a crisp sound, the body shattered like a crystal and melted into the moonlight.The chief fell down clutching his chest.Yamazaki hugged *his body in surprise, and said anxiously, "Are you okay?"
The director bowed his head and spit out a mouthful of blood, but smiled wryly, "No one can compete with the ghost clan!"
"How are you?" Yamazaki called anxiously.
The director stood up with his shoulders, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said lightly, "It's okay!"
Jiusaka Xuanrui sneered, "You still dare to be brave, let me use your blood to pay homage to the undead of the ghost clan today!"
"Don't force me to kill!" The chief looked at Yamazaki who was beside him and said sharply.He no longer wanted anyone to be implicated because it would only increase his guilt.
"At this moment, if you use that move with a human body, I'm afraid it will be wiped out!" Shinaki and the others had no intention of retreating, but instead pressed forward step by step.
"Then let's go to ashes and smoke together!" The Chief Secretary resolutely clasped his hands and raised them above his head, his icy blue eyes gradually condensed into the dark color of the night sky.Light blue brilliance emanated from around the body, and the light became stronger and stronger, illuminating the night, and the honey-colored broken hair fluttered in the light and shadow.At this time, a ray of light went straight up to the blue sky, and even met the moon. The moonlight flowed down like a waterfall, enveloping the chief executive.At this moment, his thin body was bright and tall like an angel, his whole body was shrouded in the holy light, and his once smiling face was solemn and serene.
"Yamazaki-kun, please lean against my back, close your eyes, and treat it as a dream." His voice was very soft, like the wings of an angel flickering gently.
"Director..."
Seeing the situation in front of them, Hisaka Xuanrui and Maki Izumimori couldn't help but feel moved. They would probably turn into dust in this light blade.They have seen with their own eyes that the chief executive made everyone in the ghost clan turn into fluorescent lights and disappear without a trace, not to mention the current mortal bodies.
"What a wonderful performance!" Kawagami and Miyabe stood at the intersection of light and shadow, watching the scene in front of them.
"I didn't expect the so-called ghost clan to be such despicable guys." He Shang said leisurely.
"If you have the energy, why don't you think about how to send us back?" Gongbu was very disdainful of the ghost clan's infighting.After all, the era in which they came is changing rapidly. It is really unreasonable for these people to do such useless things here!He had just had a premonition that his fate in the Edo period was coming to an end, so he found the general manager and hoped that he would find a way to travel back.During the day, he was threatened by the chief executive to accompany him in a boring play!They originally agreed to meet here at night to discuss countermeasures.I don't want to be one step ahead of the Raiders.
Jiusaka Xuanrui happened to find a step to go down, he didn't want to really die with the chief executive here. "Let go of you today!" As he said that, a red light flashed in his hand, and the red sword melted into his palm.
"Thank you!" The chief executive smiled and took back his beat. The moonlight waterfall around him turned into scattered lights like fireflies in the darkness.
"Is the barbarian faction still afraid of death?" The chief director smiled at Gongbu.
"You said it all, you want to use your good youth to fight against barbarians, how can you die so easily? Besides, what the hell is that kid called Qianli Qiantui, he killed my life in just a few days!"
"It's not a few days." The chief executive said sadly.
"Time and space have been distorted. A few days here may be equivalent to the past few years." Maki continued.
"So during the time we've been talking, you might have died." Hisaka Xuanrui gloated.
"What kind of time-traveling are you guys doing, why do you want to catch up with us?"
"Actually, I think the current life is quite interesting!" Kawagami Yansai said leisurely from the side, he is very happy with his current state as he is at ease with the situation. "Besides, I have always disapproved of your radical approach of expelling barbarians."
"Now is not the time to discuss this, is it?"
Seeing that Miyabe was really angry, Kawagami smiled and shook his head.
"In short, I must go back!" Gongbu insisted, no matter what kind of fate it is, his body should be under his own control, and he should be responsible for the path he chooses.
"It's not impossible to go back." In the darkness, two more figures appeared on the roof of the building, so silently that no one noticed.The person in front is tall and heroic, wearing a sports cap, it is Katsura Kogoro.But the person behind him has the face of an angel, and the moonlight on his face has lost its color. His eyes and his smile will remind you of the word holy, like epiphyllum blooming in the night, with a kind of Stunning beauty!
God's son!Shinsaku Takasugi!
The person he once admired changed his body, but he was still facing the wind. The chief executive looked at him, and vaguely saw the smiling face standing under the snow cherry tree, which was unparalleled in the world.
"Director, we meet again!" Takasugi said.
"That's right!" The general manager replied lightly, since the homeland was destroyed, every meeting has become a blood-stained memory, every smile is filled with murderous intent, and every word is piercing!The once so beautiful relationship was destroyed in an instant, and what was left was a scar that could not be healed in a lifetime.
"What is the solution?" Gongbu impatiently interrupted the gaze of the two.
"As long as we get those two swords, it is possible to travel through time and space again," Gui said.
"But weren't those two swords still 150 years ago?"
"No, they are in this time and space, and they are lying in the Tokyo Museum." Takasugi smiled, "How is it? Director, a man should prove his worth in the artillery fire instead of fleeing here to play this game A tennis game." Takasugi stared into his eyes, the gentleness that had been like water had turned into a sharp blade of ice and pierced the chief executive's heart.
"Yeah, I'm scared!" The boss smiled slightly. He was really scared, afraid of seeing Takasugi's short life like a cherry blossom withering at the most beautiful moment; afraid that every time they fought, blood would flow into rivers, and the lives would be burnt; afraid of ghosts Perishing in the hands of the two of them, they disappeared without a trace from the long river of history, and the snow cherry tree can only be the lonely petals that have fallen from ancient times.
"I won't activate the Ghost Sword again!" said the chief executive.
Takasugi's beautiful eyes showed a different kind of coldness, he smiled, "You are always against me, Chief Secretary! But this time, you will! At any cost, I will definitely let you combine your two swords, and open the ghost's sword. era."
"Whatever you want." The chief executive dropped the words, pulled up Yamazaki and left.Two swords combined, that kind of thing will never happen again!Looking up at the distant starry sky, the scene of the past seems to have traveled through time and space.
"Director, let's combine our two swords together! The Great Kanto Earthquake can shake the rule of the shogunate, and let our Oni Clan once again stand on the stage of history."
... The chief executive smiled self-deprecatingly, he would agree to such a move even though he was ignorant.After the earthquake, Edo suffered countless casualties and was almost in ruins.His nightmare began from then on... Scenes of mourning and poverty reappeared in his dreams again and again... If the revival of the ghost clan was at the cost of those innocent lives, then he would rather not have that kind of revival, he only hoped Live a life indifferent to the world, and spend that short life with the person you love the most.
Note: In the Ansei Edo Earthquake in 1855, the two earthquakes were both 8.4-magnitude huge vibrations, which shook the rule of the shogunate.
