Chapter 649: Rain Collapse and Black Rope
“Is he really dead from that power…?” Yu Gong Qinghui’s lips twitched slightly.
The Huo Jin Dao indeed possessed incredible power, but the combat ability of its wielder was not particularly high. If Yu Gong Qinghui were to drop the [Rain Collapse] and fight Lin Qi Ye, he would definitely lose.
With a single punch, Lin Qi Ye could create a massive hole in the concrete floor.
“It’s best if he’s dead; if not…”
Lin Qi Ye glanced at Mu Mu.
The latter let out a “hey” sound, and his figure swelled again, the bandages on him loosening to reveal dozens of missile-like projectiles radiating a chilling silver light, all aimed at the burning nightclub.
“Just keep bombing until he’s dead,” Lin Qi Ye said calmly.
“With such firepower, you could already blow up half of Osaka,” Yu Gong Qinghui remarked.
“No,” Lin Qi Ye shook his head, “if all the weapons inside him were detonated, I could blow up the entire Osaka.”
“…”
“Of course, doing so would harm civilians. When necessary, close combat is still the better solution.”
Just as Yu Gong Qinghui was about to speak, he suddenly caught something out of the corner of his eye, narrowing his gaze slightly.
Amidst the billowing smoke of the nightclub, a massive black blade sliced through the air, standing between the ruins like a gigantic wall. Behind the blade, a disheveled figure struggled to stand up, coughing violently.
Han Chuan Si gripped the unsheathed [Black Rope], his face filled with seriousness.
The missile that had just appeared nearly cost him his life; if he hadn’t been holding the [Black Rope], which projected the blade in front of him, he would have likely lost his combat ability even if he survived.
But he couldn’t understand… where did that missile come from?!
Rain poured down, dousing the flames and gradually suppressing the fire. Han Chuan Si, holding the [Black Rope], turned to look in the direction from which the missile had come.
Not far away on a rooftop, two figures were holding a red umbrella, quietly watching him. Behind one of them, a cluster of missiles was stacked, ready to launch.
Han Chuan Si: …
“It seems he’s not so easy to kill,” Lin Qi Ye said indifferently. “Mu Mu.”
“Hey!”
Whoosh—!!
The second missile shot out, racing toward Han Chuan Si in the ruins. The latter’s expression froze, and the blade of his weapon flickered with a dark light, the massive blade projection appearing in front of him!
The missile had a wide coverage area, and with his speed, it was impossible to escape in an instant, so the best option was to defend rather than evade.
Boom—!!!
The second explosion echoed, creating a deep pit in the nightclub’s ground. The flames, which had been suppressed by the rain, erupted once more, roaring fiercely.
Yet Han Chuan Si, behind the blade projection, remained largely unscathed.
“The [Black Rope] has strong defensive capabilities; even a direct hit from a missile can’t shatter that projection,” Yu Gong Qinghui said, slowly placing his hand on the deep blue long sword at his waist.
“Next, it’s my turn.”
The long sword was drawn!
In an instant, Yu Gong Qinghui’s figure vanished into the rain.
The red umbrella floated down to the ground, splashing a few droplets.
Han Chuan Si, hiding behind the blade projection, felt a chill run down his spine. His gaze swept around, and in a droplet of rain falling behind him, he saw Yu Gong Qinghui’s reflection, a blue blade light slicing through the air, aimed directly at his head!
“Yu Gong Qinghui!”
Han Chuan Si instantly recognized this signature ability. He quickly raised the [Black Rope] in his hand, barely managing to block the strike. The black and blue blades clashed in the air, creating a shower of sparks.
Yu Gong Qinghui’s eyes narrowed slightly, and the torrential rain suddenly froze in mid-air!
Countless raindrops converged behind Yu Gong Qinghui like a river, outlining the shape of a water dragon. He used his sword to deflect Han Chuan Si’s strike, stepping back half a pace, holding the sword in front of him, raised high…
And then he slashed out!
The water dragon behind him surged out of the rain, charging straight at Han Chuan Si’s face. The latter’s eyes narrowed, and he thrust the [Black Rope] forcefully into the ground!
In the sky, a massive black blade projection descended, the same one that had severed the Yamasaki Bridge, tearing through the dark sky and heading straight for the water dragon.
The two collided with a thunderous crash!
……
Tokyo, [Pure Land].
“Beep beep beep beep…”
The piercing alarm echoed in the room as the yellow-robed oracle suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the virtual screen above him, his brow slightly furrowing.
“Yuzun, what happened?”
“Osaka detected a large-scale energy fluctuation, suspected to be two Huo Jin Dao releasing power simultaneously, energy level analysis in progress…”
“Analysis complete, the release was by [Fierce Ghost] level wanted criminals, Yu Gong Qinghui; [Fierce Ghost] level wanted criminal, Han Chuan Si.”
The yellow-robed oracle frowned slightly.
Two Huo Jin Dao wielders acted simultaneously in Osaka? Were they fighting each other, or teaming up against a common enemy?
As he pondered this, the electronic voice sounded again:
“Osaka detected a third Huo Jin Dao releasing energy, energy level analysis in progress…”
“Analysis complete, the release was by [Fierce Ghost] level wanted criminal… Yuzu Kurotetsu.”
The yellow-robed oracle’s pupils suddenly constricted!
Yuzu Kurotetsu?!
Wasn’t he already dead?
“Yuzun, are you sure?” He frowned, looking at the virtual screen.
“Cross-referencing the energy wave patterns, confirmed to be Huo Jin Dao number six, [Misty Eyes].” The electronic voice paused before continuing, “Unable to confirm the wielder’s information; currently, there are two possibilities: first, [Misty Eyes] has found a new master; second, Yuzu Kurotetsu has come back to life.”
The yellow-robed oracle frowned in thought for a moment before quickly making a decision.
“Call in Oracle 4 and Oracle 6; the two of us will head to Osaka and see what’s going on…”
“Sending information to Oracle 4 and Oracle 6… Transmission complete. Precision drop pod preparation complete, launch countdown one minute…”
The yellow-robed oracle turned and swiftly passed through layer upon layer of metal doors, taking the elevator to the lowest level of the [Pure Land]. After verifying his mechanical eye with his left eye, he walked straight into a cramped silver capsule, lying down in the center.
The capsule door slowly closed, and above him, the countdown ticked down.
3, 2, 1…
Bang bang bang—!!
At the bottom of the massive flying saucer above Tokyo, three silver capsules ejected, tracing three arcs in the air, then igniting their rear thrusters, adjusting direction, and speeding straight toward Osaka!
At this moment, the virtual screen in the [Pure Land] lit up again.
“Drop pod launched, [Pure Land] entering automatic defense mode…”
“Warning! Detected… zzzzz… intrusion… zzzzz…”
A strange electrical noise mixed in, and the virtual screen suddenly displayed the white static of an old television.
The electronic voice fell silent for a moment before speaking again:
“Automatic defense mode disabled, hee hee…”
