No matter how he wiped it, the bleeding couldn't stop, which showed how deep the wound was.

It is not difficult to imagine - if Prajna had reacted a little slower or moved a little slower, he would have definitely been killed on the spot!

He looked down at his blood-stained palms and grinned.

"I almost went to see the King of Hell just now."

"If it were a year ago... no, the me I was half a year ago would definitely be a dead soul under your sword now!"

"My back is covered in cold sweat now."

"This kind of tension of 'life hanging by a thread' is really something I haven't seen for a long time."

Having said this, Prajna no longer paid attention to the wound on his forehead.

He raised his eyes and looked directly at the director-general.

"That move just now must be your strongest move, right?"

"What a wonderful shot."

"This is a wonderful move that can only be performed by the chosen one who has reached the peak of his sword skills and physical strength."

"I'm very touched to be able to see such a magical skill with my own eyes."

"Now that you have unleashed your strongest move... it would be rude if I didn't respond in equal measure!"

When talking about the word "equal amount", Prajna emphasized his tone.

After saying that, he flipped his right wrist, and the blade drew a sharp arc in his palm - he changed the way he held the knife from an upright grip to an inverted grip.

Then, he spread his legs, lowered his waist, held the sheath with his left hand, and put the knife back into the sheath with his right hand.

Such a technique, such a posture... At this moment, Souji and others all had their eyes widened, their expressions dominated by strong shock!

familiar……

So familiar!

To Souji and others, Hannya's posture is too familiar!

Looking at Hannya opposite him, who was in an Iai posture, Souji muttered absently:

"Tachibana...kun...?"

Strange to say, after changing his posture, his whole body's aura suddenly changed, becoming extremely fierce and full of oppressive enemies. Souji and others had seen a lot of enemies.

But when Prajna sheathed the sword and assumed the Iai stance... his aura also changed.

It's just that it doesn't become fierce and terrifying.

Instead, it became...very calm.

Yes, calm.

It's like a mirror-like lake without any ripples.

Prajna looked at the general secretary and said calmly:

"I'm on it."

In an instant... really in an instant, that "peace" suddenly disappeared!

The "mirror-like lake" turns into a "surging tsunami"!

Prajna rushed towards Souji! A silver light flashed out from his waist!

Compared with this dazzling silver light that is as fast as lightning, even the moonlight pales in comparison.

The speed with which he drew the sword was so fast!

It was so fast that even Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito Kazuo didn't react.

Only the General Director responded in time.

In order to protect Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito Ichi on her left and right sides, she took half a step forward and inserted the Kaga Kiyoko in her palm upside down on the ground. Then she pressed her right foot against the back of the sword to increase her defense, and used the blade to forcefully meet Hannya's sword.

Slash.

In an instant, the two knives collided.

clang!!!

The impact and clanging shook the atmosphere! It knocked away the moonlight!

Hannya drew his sword and slashed, hitting Kaga Kiyomitsu's blade right in the middle, and a string of sparks shot out.

Souji gritted his teeth, poured all his strength into the sword in his palm, and tried his best to hold on.

But every time she exerts some strength, a bigger and stronger force will come back!

This head-to-head confrontation started suddenly and ended quickly.

Click...!

Suddenly, there was the sound of metal shattering - centered around the point where the two swords met, Kaga Kiyomitsu's blade cracked into fine lines.

These fine lines continued to lengthen and deepen, and finally - with a click - the blade broke!

Hannya cut off Souji's sword directly!

Without the obstruction of Kaga Kiyomitsu, Hannya's sword continued to swing forward, slashing towards Souji's chest.

Fortunately, at this time, Nagakura Shinpachi and Saitoichi finally recovered.

They both swung their swords and intercepted Hannya's sword before Souji was hurt.

The head-officer's hard block just now was able to withstand a lot of power.

But even so, the remaining strength on the sword still made Nagakura Shinpachi and Saitoichi change their expressions.

There was no time to feel sad that his beloved sword was broken - Souji picked up the half-broken blade in his hand and prepared to take the opportunity to dig the broken blade into Prajna's chest.

But before she could step forward, Hannya gave a low shout and used a fierce force, like hitting a baseball, to send Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito flying away!

At the same time, he flew up with a kick and hit the commander-in-chief in the stomach.

In pain, the chief executive suddenly dangled down and almost collapsed to the ground.

Nagakura Shinpachi and Saito always felt that there was an irresistible force pressing towards them from the front.

They had no way of resisting and could only retreat quickly under the pressure of this huge force, dragging countless tile fragments on the roof with their feet.

Relying on his advantages in weight and strength, Nagakura Shinpachi can barely keep his body shape stable.

But as soon as Saito...

But in the blink of an eye, he fell to the ground because he couldn't keep his balance, and then rolled down along the eaves.

It's about 3 meters above the ground.

If it falls like this, it will break a few bones!

If he is unlucky and lands on his head...then the Shinsengumi may lose one of its generals!

Just when everyone was frightened and terrified... just as quickly as he said it, a tall figure jumped out from a dark alley not far away, rushed towards Saito Ichi, and held him in his arms before he hit the ground.

middle.

After everyone at the scene saw the face of the visitor clearly, everyone except Prajna showed a look of relief and joy.

Nagakura Shinpachi even shouted excitedly:

"Mr. Orange!"

Orange——Hearing this word, Prajna's "stress reaction" happened again.

He narrowed his eyes and stared straight at Qingden.

After rescuing Saito Ichi, Aoto jumped up and ducked to Hijikata Toshizo's side.

Looking at Aoto who was so close, Saito looked ashamed.

"Mr. Tachibana, I'm sorry...for causing you any trouble."

Qingdeng said calmly:

"Don't apologize, just take a good rest first."

He said, putting down Saitoichi in his arms, and then jumped up again, jumping to Nagakura Shinpachi's side, directly opposite Hannya.

After leaving Luozhong, Qingto rushed to Ikedaya at full speed.

As soon as he reached Sanjo Bridge with his front legs, he heard the sound of a fierce fight with his back legs.

I followed the sound of fighting and took a look - and then I saw Souji who had lost his ability to fight, and Saito Ichi who had fallen from the roof.

Although he didn't know the situation clearly, but judging from the current situation... it was obvious that it was this strange guy wearing a Western hat that put the General Director and others into a bitter battle!

All of the "newly selected three heroes" were injured, and the general director directly lost his ability to fight... The strength of the opponent is self-evident.

Qingdeng had a serious look on his face, silently adjusted his breath, and prepared for battle.

Under normal circumstances, Qingteng would have already drawn his sword in his hand, stepped forward to attack, and directly fought with the opponent.
To be continued...
