Did he misjudge?
Kokushibou clutched his severed arm, the scorching pain from the nichirin blade prickling every nerve in his body.
His eyes were filled with astonishment, but Kokushibou immediately switched his nichirin blade to his left hand.
His previous movement was clearly an attack towards his left side; he was certain he hadn't seen wrong.
Then... Kokushibou looked coldly at Uzui Tengen's confident face, meeting his dark pink eyes.
Could it be... he also glimpsed that world?
In just these few rounds of fighting, he had comprehended what Kokushibou had spent such a long time to acquire... [Don't worry, I firmly believe that in the future, the children born into this world will surpass us.]
Yoriichi's firm voice echoed in his ears once more.
You were right again... Yoriichi.
These humans, they all defy logic.
But why?
Why can't I be among them?!
Tell me! Yoriichi!
Like a madman, he retaliated against Uzui Tengen, his chaotic inner state causing him to make mistake after mistake, his body being sliced open by those two spinning nichirin blades, leaving wound after wound.
Burning agony spread throughout his body; Kokushibou clearly saw through Uzui Tengen's movements, yet the latter could also perceive and react swiftly.
Sound Breathing, Fourth Form: Constant Resounding Slashes!
Uzui Tengen smiled freely, his lips pressed together, large beads of sweat constantly rolling down his forehead.
The intense sparks from the rapid collision of their weapons illuminated the light in his eyes.
Yes! Just like this!
The musical score, combined with this transparent world before him, made the two nichirin blades dance powerfully in Uzui Tengen's hands, full of strength!
Red afterimages repeatedly struck Kokushibou's blood-stained body!
It was like repeatedly smashing Kokushibou's fragile self-esteem.
At this moment, it was obvious!
That heart had already developed clear cracks!
It could fall apart at any moment!
A piercing, bone-gnawing pain came from his abdomen; Muichiro's nichirin blade pierced through his body, the heat of the nichirin blade constantly searing his internal organs, and Kokushibou's face twisted in agony, the pain from the nichirin blade freezing him in place!
This is the chance!
Everyone present collectively realized that this was the best moment to slay Upper Rank One!
In an instant, everyone activated their Breathing Techniques.
Wind Breathing, Third Form: Clear Storm, Wind Tree!
Water Breathing, Fourth Form: Striking Tide!
Sound Breathing, Fifth Form: String Performance!
Muichiro gripped his nichirin blade tightly, pushing it deeper into Kokushibou's body, intending to cut him in half!
Kokushibou's eyes widened, surrounded from all sides; he couldn't dodge now, and a clear realization dawned on him.
His head would be cut off!
...
Kokushibou struggled, raising kokushibos blade high; how could he lose to this group of people!
He would go further!
To surpass Yoriichi!
Moon Breathing, Sixteenth Form... To surpass... Yoriichi!
"Bang! Bang!"
Accompanied by two gunshots.
Kokushibou's remaining left arm suddenly broke off, and kokushibos blade fell to the ground with a hum, as a large number of tree roots suddenly appeared on his body, firmly binding him in place!
Shinazugawa Genya, not far away, was panting heavily, his flintlock pistol aimed directly at Kokushibou; Genya was now in a state that could be called complete demonification!
Sharp fangs, ferocious vertical pupils, his nichirin blade clenched in his mouth, saliva uncontrollably overflowing from his lips; Sanemi's blood was now equally tempting Genya.
He could only suppress his bloodthirsty urges through this method; fortunately, he still retained his sanity.
"Die!" Genya shouted loudly.
Sanemi on the left and Giyuu on the right simultaneously slashed down at Kokushibou's neck from above, while Uzui Tengen lowered his stance, swinging his two nichirin blades upwards.
The three formed an unassailable pincer attack!
