Hattori Kyuzo's eyes widened, his eyeballs almost protruding from their sockets.
He stared at his legendary katana, crafted by a master swordsmith from Japan through countless trials and tempering, being pinched effortlessly between Fang Cheng's two fingers, emitting a mournful sound of metal.
The resilient blade, forged from Otherworldly black iron, was twisted into a spiral pattern reminiscent of a twisted bun.
Following a crisp "crack," the katana snapped cleanly in half.
The shattered blade flew past his cheek, tracing a few fine blood lines on his skin, from which warm blood beads instantly seeped.
The immense shock gripped Hattori Kyuzo's heart, leaving him frozen in place, delayed for a full 0.1 seconds.
This sword had accompanied him in battle for over a decade, severing countless weapons and armaments, yet today it was destroyed by two human fingers as if kneading dough!
