A person in Japan, a sword that soars to immortality.

"Please do not move around carelessly, or you might get accidentally injured. I will have to take you back to Edo to explain."

While Taiyi was speaking, he stopped two steps away from the wall where the window was located.

Gang's lips twitched. Although he didn't say anything, he was already planning how to escape later.

Damn you, Taiyi! How could I possibly bear the guilt of assassinating a daimyo?

"You're taking me back to Edo? Does that mean you won't kill me?"

After his eyes darted around and he pondered the matter in his mind, Gang turned to Taiichi, who had his back to him, and asked the question that had been bothering him.

"I won't kill you; I'll just use you as a stepping stone. Besides, I'm quite interested in some of the knowledge in your mind."

Although Taiyi was facing the wall, he still had a smile on his face while speaking.

Actually, framing the daimyo for the crime of killing him was just a joke.

Is the shogunate a fool, or is everyone blind?

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the wounds on Sakai Tadakatsu's body were slash wounds.

Sending the bar back to Edo was simply to give the Tokugawa shogunate a way out, and also to test Tokugawa Ienari's attitude towards him.

As for what I just said about being interested in bars, that's true too.

In the original work, when Gang and Sagi fought against the Celestial, Gang used a ninjutsu similar to invisibility.

Although it didn't truly disappear, classifying it as a concealment technique or something similar is definitely correct.

This is also one of the pieces of knowledge that Taiichi wants to obtain.

"Huh? Knowledge? You mean Nezu's ninjutsu?" Gang shrugged, rolled his eyes, pointed out the window, and said in a sarcastic tone, "As for mastering Nezu's ninjutsu, I'm just a Jonin. The two Kage-level ninjas outside know far more than I do."

"And if we're talking about the most complete one, then it has to be our leader, Mochizuki Chiyozuki. Why don't you just go find her directly?"

Shaking his head, Tai turned his head to the side, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the figures of Gang and Zuoqie: "Some people are impossible to communicate with. Even if you kill them, you will not get anything."

"Really? How did you know I would tell you this?"

"Because you once promised someone that you would live well, carrying her share of the burden, didn't you?"

"you!"

The inexplicable feeling returned, and the female ninja froze on the spot again, staring wide-eyed at Taiichi's back, her mind a complete mess.

The instant Taiichi finished speaking, she felt as if she had returned to that dilapidated thatched hut and once again held her younger sister Saya's cold little hand.

Sister, you must live happily...

"When things get tough, think about the things you enjoy, your cat, your family..."

Taiyi seemed to be muttering to himself, while Gang had gone from being shocked to being somewhat numb.

What would you do if someone you've never met knew all your secrets, and even more? Of course, you'd give up.

"You would do it that way, wouldn't you? But I prefer a different approach."

click!

He pushed open the guard with his thumb, slowly gripped the hilt with his right hand, and gradually tightened his grip. The sword emitted a clear hum, and his aura began to rise steadily.

"Fear no sorrow, and slay all sorrow!"

He drew his sword and swung it.

It seemed to be dancing wildly in the air, but the next second, countless sword marks suddenly appeared on the opposite wall, and with a crisp cracking sound, the entire wall instantly shattered into hundreds of pieces.

Looking at the man with his arms crossed in front of his chest at the top of the castle tower opposite, Taiichi lowered his head, his brows furrowed into a deep frown, and the corners of his mouth gradually widened into a smile.

The three-colored aura flashed past his eyes, and the whole world seemed to fall silent. But then, an extremely violent current of air surged outward from Taiyi's body.

"I don't have time to waste with small fry."

"The night should be peaceful, not noisy!"

【Three Qi Circulating Through the Heavens - Fire - Six Dragons Returning to the Sun】

Roar!

Before he could make a move, six fiery red dragons roared and rapidly enlarged before his eyes at a speed exceeding that of Kazekage Mochizuki, before disappearing in a flash.

Then the world in his eyes began to spin, and then he felt himself falling rapidly.

boom......

[General point +50]

The sound of an object hitting the ground rang out. Taiyi returned his sword to its sheath, then reached inside the chest of the headless corpse of Mochizuki Xun, whose neck wound was emitting white smoke. He took out two small bottles and slowly closed his eyes.

He spread his divine sense, scanning a hundred-meter radius centered on Himeji Castle.

Apart from Edo, the castle towns of other castles generally only extend outwards by a few hundred meters before ending.

"Found you, the last one."

At this moment, Taiyi had already used attribute conversion, and his health and vitality had broken through.

He scanned the area with his divine sense and had basically locked onto the locations of all the enemies.

As the fire in the castle town grew larger, cries of agony gradually rose from all directions.

Many townspeople who wanted to put out the fire were killed by ninjas who suddenly appeared before the houses were even completely demolished.

Even from several hundred meters away, Taiichi could clearly see the Ninja Hokage, Mochizuki Ichiro, looking at the raging fire with an expression of enjoyment.

"The cries of the weak bring no joy; those who have fallen into the demonic path should be swiftly and decisively slain!"

click!

With his thumb pushing open the sword guard again, the technique of Thunder Breathing First Form appeared gracefully in his mind.

But what Taiyi wants to do is not just flash once, but flash infinitely!

With a light touch of the toes, he leaped into the air, bent his body, tucked in his legs, and drew his sword for a quick attack.

The Yamada family samurai, including Sugen, who were fighting ninjas in the Imperial Court, seemed to sense something.

In the Japanese-style room where the walls had just disappeared, Sakiri, holding his sword, stood on the edge of the broken wall with Kotobuki, and everyone looked up at the sky.

Taiyi floated in mid-air, seemingly embedded in the moon. As he drew his sword, an incomparably dazzling white light burst forth violently from the gap between the sword and the scabbard.

Boom!

Like a bolt from the blue, several white bolts of lightning flashed across the sky and disappeared in an instant. At the same time, Taiyi vanished from everyone's sight. All that could be seen was a white streak of light that showed the trajectory of Taiyi's movements.

【Three Qi Traverse the Heavens - Gold - Dragon's Journey】

In the blink of an eye, a white light swept over all the fighters, and those belonging to the Nezu ninja were either displaced diagonally or separated to the sides along the center line after the white light passed.

And at every point where the white light changed direction, the ground cracked and the walls collapsed.

From the inner palace to the entire castle town, within a radius of a hundred meters, the white light seemed to refract, passing through almost everything in the blink of an eye.

As the strongest of the four pillars of the Nezu Ninja, Hokage Mochizuki Ichi sensed something was wrong the moment Taiichi activated his power.

He instantly drank the Transformation Water, and his entire body burst into flames, swelling to a height of 7 meters, resembling a fire troll.

Seeing the white light approaching, Wang Yueyi roared and instantly formed hand seals, shooting out a blazing breath from his mouth.

But the scene of the enemy being burned to ashes as expected did not appear. Instead, a white light appeared, like a wallpaper knife slicing a sausage.

The blazing sun's breath split in two in an instant, simultaneously piercing through Wang Yueyi's body.

"you......"

Call ~

The flames contracted, and Wang Yueyi returned to human form. Then, a line of blood began to extend downwards from her forehead, and she was split into two.

[General point +50]

However, Taiyi did not feel any more relaxed at this moment.

His sword not only cleaved Mochizuki Ichiro in two, but also found Mochizuki Chiyo, who was hiding in the shadows, and beheaded her with a single strike.

But the head that should have fallen to the ground miraculously healed again.

"Hehehe..."

"Hahahaha!"

"It's true! I've gained immortality!"

Chiyo Mochizuki's eyes widened, and after a burst of loud laughter while touching her neck, her eyes flashed red as she slowly turned around and stared at Taiichi, saying maniacally:

"Yamada Asaemon Taichi...you can't kill me!"

"But I can kill you!!!"

"Ninja Technique: Harmony between Heaven and Earth!"

boom!

Taiyi and the ground beneath his feet instantly sank downwards, forming a bottomless giant pit.
