Seeing his friends slaughtering each other in front of him, Koizumi felt depressed. If possible, he didn't want to see this scene at all. He could even say that he should be the one to deal with these people. Even if he had to face Mai Min, Gin, and Remus, Koizumi had no objection at all. As long as he made up his mind, Koizumi could do it.
But now, with this scene, with fellow disciples killing each other, sisters killing each other, everything has come out... Koizumi is in a really bad mood.
"Master, leave here quickly. Our enemies are not these guys who should be dead, but those heroic spirits!"
Yakumo Yukari's expression was very serious, as if she was afraid that Koizumi would do something irrational out of reluctance.
Koizumi nodded silently. He knew this in his heart, and he wasn't the irrational type, so—
"Don't worry, I know what to do, and I know what to do now... It's just... It's really frustrating... And it's also very frustrating that I can only watch them fight like this and can't do anything."
Yakumo Yukari sighed slightly, and looked at Koizumi in front of her with a pair of complicated eyes. She tapped Koizumi's head lightly with the folding fan in her hand, and looked at Koizumi in front of her seriously.
"Since you are unwilling to accept this, then keep this unwillingness in your heart forever and keep it in mind. Then, continue to grow stronger until you reach a power that surpasses humanity, the planet, and even the world. Then, continue to save these tragedies. Otherwise, Master, you will always be treated as a tool by the planet and humanity..."
Koizumi kept Yakumo Yukari's words in mind. He also knew that if he didn't have strong strength, he would always be treated as a tool. Until he could get rid of the status of a tool, he could only do this.
With Akame and other Night Raid comrades holding Nahashu and the others back, Koizumi and the others hurried towards the Imperial Palace. If they stayed here for too long, it would be a waste of Akame and the others' good intentions.
I wish you good luck in your military career... Najeshita thought to herself as she watched Koizumi and the others leave.
----
As soon as they entered the Imperial Palace, a gloomy atmosphere immediately spread. Gu Quan and the others could feel a sense of oppression in their hearts. This strange power was limiting the efforts of their group.
It seems that the closer this barrier treasure is to the center, the greater its effect, especially against enemies like oneself.
It was obvious that his group was not obedient to the empire. Therefore, this treasure could protect the imperial generals and also reduce the strength of those who were disobedient to the empire. It could be felt just by feeling.
Koizumi and the others looked at each other without stopping. By the way, Koizumi and the others did not fly because they had to take care of Minamoto no Raikou and the others who could not fly, so they could only walk.
To be honest, this really made Remlia extremely dissatisfied, not because of anything else, but because Remlia herself hated trouble, and it was still broad daylight, and facing the sun was really uncomfortable.
Moreover, she couldn't even fly, so she had to take care of these flightless people. She really wanted to say something unhappily: "It's obviously your fault that you can't fly, so why do I have to wait here for you, Lady Remi?"
But for the sake of Koizumi and Reimu, she decided not to say any more useless words.
This was the decisive battle, and she didn't want Koizumi's side to suffer any losses because of her relationship.
"It seems this Noble Phantasm is of a fairly high rank... How does this pressure affect you?"
Feeling the heaviness in his chest, Koizumi couldn't help but smile bitterly, then cast his gaze towards Reimu and the others standing nearby.
"It's okay... It's not as serious as I thought. However, I'm afraid I can't fight that general in a one-on-one duel."
Lingmeng frowned slightly, clenched her fists, and sighed softly in her heart.
It seems that we have to borrow Minamoto no Raikou's power to get rid of the general.
...However, even if his strength had not declined, he would probably need help to deal with the opponent. Although his spell card rules had the upper hand before, this treasure also contained the power of rules, which might be able to interfere with his treasure. So as long as the opponent wanted, it was possible for him to fight against him in this imperial capital.
Moreover, with the increase in the power of the imperial capital, he might not be able to win the battle.
This really makes people feel helpless... As expected, I will only make an effort this time, and I will never come again!
"It's okay, just let Lai Guang's mother help you. I don't believe that guy can really take on two people at once!"
Koizumi curled his lips. Of course, this was only if he didn't take into account the mastermind behind the scenes. He could still deal with the other party, but he didn't know the true strength of the Heroic Spirit who possessed such a Noble Phantasm.
Is that little emperor really that powerful? Koizumi feels a little unreal.
"Water Dragon Sky March!"
At this moment, a roar was heard suddenly, and after a flash of light shot up into the sky, there were violent vibrations from the ground. The next moment, an overwhelming water dragon surged from the ground, and Liva stood in front of everyone.
Beside Riva, Niu and Daidas looked at Koizumi and the others with serious expressions. Brand had already used [Demon Haunting: Armor Control] and stood there in heavy armor, staring at Koizumi and the others.
Of course, Brand's expression beneath the armor was extremely complicated. He had never expected that in the end he would still fight for the Empire as a general. He had clearly left the Empire of his own accord, but now... How ironic...
"The three beast warriors beside Esdeath... Rider, Caster, and Berserker..."
Initially, Koizumi was unable to read their data correctly because his dreams were controlled by the other party. But now, it's different. It's the final battle. Although the Master's privileges have been more or less interfered with due to the interference of the Imperial Capital, Koizumi can still read the job information of Riva, Niu, and Daidas.
"Leave Big Brother and the other three Beast Warriors to me, Master. Let's hurry to the palace... General Bud and the Emperor should be there!" Tatsumi stood up silently, holding the Nameless Sword in his hand, and looked at the three Beast Warriors and Brand in front of him with a serious face.
"...I understand. However, Jingyi, Baimao, Yoshitsune and Akame, the four of you stay here and help Tatsumi!"
As he said this, Koizumi turned his gaze towards Akame and the other three. Ushiwakamaru, Hyakumao, and Jingyi's power wouldn't be of much use against Bud, so it would be okay to have them stay here to deal with the Three Beast Warriors. At least they could help contain them.
The four Akagi nodded silently.
The next moment, Koizumi, Reimu, and the others left the place. Since the task had been handed over to Tatsumi, they believed that Tatsumi would not let them down.
Seeing this scene, Riva had no intention of stopping it. They were only loyal to Esdeath, and the empire had little to do with them. What's more, these servants in front of them were enough to cause trouble for them.
Chapter 242: The Pillar of the Empire (Part 1)
In front of the palace, Bud stood alone, wearing the imperial armor - [Thunder God's Descent·Admiral]. The strong pressure released from his body, combined with the suppression brought by God, was no longer something that ordinary people could resist.
In mid-air, Doremi Alter silently looked at the scene on the ground, with a solemn look on his face.
She is not a general of the imperial capital, nor has she completely submitted to the emperor. Although she was created by him, she has her own personality and will, so how could she be so easily convinced by him?
However, considering that the other party created his own existence after all, Doremi gave him some face.
If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have bothered to take action... Everyone knows that this battle is not easy to fight!
Doremi Alter couldn't help but curl his lips, his eyes staring ahead, his heart feeling extremely heavy.
It seems that I have to be prepared to be beaten up... otherwise I may not be able to defeat them.
As he thought this, the next moment, an extremely powerful aura burst out from Doremi Alter...
Glancing at his hands, Doremi Alter's mouth curled up slightly. Very good. As time passed, Doremi Suit's power and authority were not taken back, but gradually flowed to his side.
There can only be one Doremi Suit, and power and authority will naturally choose the more powerful one.
At the same time, Doremi, who was about to arrive at the palace, couldn't help but cover her chest, her eyes slightly frowned.
"What's wrong, Doremi?" Koizumi, noticing Doremi's strange behavior, asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Feeling the power draining away from her body, Doremi couldn't help but sigh deeply. It really wasn't that easy...
"My power is constantly draining away. I guess it's because I'm slowly approaching the other party. Plus, there can only be one dream master, so power is tending towards the one with greater authority. As expected, if I don't defeat that impostor quickly, my power will slowly disappear, and there's even the possibility that my existence will be assimilated by the other party..."
Speaking of this, Doremi couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile. This really makes it hard to laugh...
Koizumi's expression suddenly froze. He had never expected Doremi Alter to be able to do this!
As if sensing something, Dolami's gaze suddenly shifted in a certain direction, and Shuangquan subconsciously clenched his hands.
"Master, my opponent has arrived. It's time for me to take the lead..."
Everyone followed Doremi's gaze and saw Doremi Alter looking down at Koizumi and the others, a subconscious sneer on her face. It was obvious that she didn't take Koizumi and the others seriously at all. It could even be said that with her own strength, she could easily kill Doremi and then directly replace her.
If she hadn't been wary of the unusual presence of Yakumo Yukari and Hakurei Reimu beside her, she would have succeeded long ago.
"There's more than one...Bud is here too..."
Feeling the pressure coming from the front, Koizumi's heart sank. He remembered his previous battle with Bud.
The power exerted by General Bud is completely beyond the ability of ordinary people to contend with. With high-intensity output and inhuman self-recovery ability, even Reimu's dream is born, and it is estimated that he would not be able to kill the opponent instantly with such combat ability.
"【Thunder God Descends·Admiral】!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The massive lightning illuminated the world before Gu Quan, and the power of the thunder and lightning came directly towards him.
Reimu, Minamoto no Raikou, and Remlia reacted instantly, arriving in front of Koizumi at lightning speed, each using their own unique skills in an attempt to block the attack.
"【God·Dream Seal】!"
"【Bull King summons thunder, Heaven's net is vast and wide】!"
"【God's Spear Gungnir】!"
The huge air wave stirred the surrounding space, and the earth that should have been blown away instantly returned to its original state.
Yakumo Yukari held Koizumi's shoulders from behind to help him steady himself, while Zhuge Liang silently activated his Noble Phantasm [Empty City Sihe], creating a solid yet illusory wall that separated Koizumi, Reimu and the other two.
The impact force was not enough to directly blow away the city wall, so Zhuge Liang was not panicked for the time being.
However, Zhuge Liang, who was playing the piano, could indeed feel the power of the enemy in front of him, and his heart sank slightly.
What a terrifying fighting power! This empire actually hides such a powerful fighting power.
As expected, he is a great general who is as famous as Esdeath. Since he is stationed in the imperial capital all year round, people subconsciously forget that the empire has such a pillar... Such terrifying combat power should not be underestimated.
Previously, Esdeath was defeated by the three of them after she left the imperial capital, but now... facing Bud, whose strength far exceeds Esdeath's due to the bonus from the imperial capital, will the three of them working together be useful?
Zhuge Liang was a little unsure... However, he did have a backup plan.
He glanced at Yakumo Yukari behind him...his intuition as a military strategist told him that this person was a big shot.
"What a strong fighting ability, even stronger than the previous times..." Hakurei Reimu's heart sank as she made such a judgment.
"This singularity is truly not short of strong individuals... It really makes my blood boil..."
The corners of Remlia's mouth rose slightly. It was her hope to be able to fight against a strong man.
Minamoto no Raikou showed no emotion when he fell down, but his hand holding Dojikiri Yasutsuna tightened slightly.
She could feel that the man in front of her was much stronger than Esdeath before. It might be because of the bonus of the imperial capital, or because the strength of herself and others had been weakened by the imperial capital. But it was a fact that the other party was stronger than her.
"Anyone who dares to disobey Your Majesty will be killed without mercy!"
Bud shouted at Guquan and the others, his eyes filled with murderous intent!
"Hmph!" Reimu snorted coldly, stomped her back foot hard on the ground, and in the blink of an eye she appeared in front of Bud.
Following Reimu were Minamoto no Raikou and Remlia. They also realized that only the three of them could work together to kill Bud.
Zhuge Liang, who was standing behind the three people, walked forward slowly and silently. A surge of magic power suddenly emerged, which increased the strength of Reimu and the other two a lot. This also startled Reimu and the other two slightly, but they did not stop their movements.
"Mr. Zhuge..." Gu Quan was also surprised. How did he do it?
"Liang analyzed the operating principle of this barrier treasure, then intercepted a portion of the magic power supply and transferred it to Miss Reimu and the other two. This is the best I can do. The rest must be handed over to Miss Reimu and the others..."
Although it was said simply, Koizumi couldn't help but admire this famous military strategist immensely.
It sounds so simple, but it is not so easy to do it...
"Then I'll take care of that imposter in the air... Master, can Qin Xin come and help me?"
As she said this, Dolami turned her gaze towards Qin Xin who was standing beside her.
Koizumi nodded silently, then slowly said, "Be careful..."
Doremi smiled gently, and the next moment she took Qin Xin to Doremi Alter.
Chapter 243: The Pillar of the Empire (Part 2)
The battle between Bud, Reimu, and the other two was like a natural disaster. Just by watching, Koizumi could feel the powerful energy contained in the battle between the two sides. The aftermath of the collision between the two sides made it impossible for others to intervene.
Even if Koizumi were to intervene in such a battle, he would probably be blown away at the very beginning.
Not only Remlia and Minamoto no Raikou used all their strength, but Reimu was no exception.
Reimu showed her full strength in her Archer state, holding nothing back. Koizumi could tell that.
This really surprised Gu Quan, but now there is no chance to be surprised. It is better to take this opportunity to find the little emperor.
"Let's go, Master. Leave this to Reimu and the others. We'll deal with the little emperor... Once we take care of the little emperor, these Servants summoned by the Holy Grail will disappear."
The corners of Yakumo Yukari's mouth curled up slightly, her eyes fixed on Koizumi, the folding fan in her hand contained a powerful power of realm.
Glancing at Yakumo Yukari, Koizumi couldn't help but nod. It seemed that Yakumo Yukari had already found out where the little emperor was.
Although this imperial city will suppress the combat effectiveness of Yakumo Yukari and others, it does not mean that Yakumo Yukari cannot sense the breath of the little emperor. If Yakumo Yukari wants, she can sense the whereabouts of the little emperor.
Looking at Yakumo Yukari's expression, she should have sensed the little emperor's aura... She couldn't intervene in the battle here, so she might as well deal with the little emperor... The only battle on the little emperor's side that she should be able to help with was this.
With this in mind, Koizumi followed Yakumo Yukari towards where the little emperor was.
Seeing Koizumi and the others leave, Reimu and the others felt a little relieved. In fact, if Koizumi were here, they would be under a lot of pressure. Facing this enemy, they must use all their strength to compete with the other party.
And if they used their full strength, there was no guarantee that they wouldn't hurt Koizumi.
Because the level of the battle this time is too high, General Bud's combat power is now so strong that it is unpredictable... Not to mention the almost unlimited supply of magic power, continuous high output, and constant recovery, it is already very uncomfortable.
Unless a Noble Phantasm can completely shatter the opponent's spiritual core, there is no way to win.
A huge amount of magical power wrapped around Reimu's hands, and the powerful Hakurei physical skills were mercilessly released towards the opponent.
There is no doubt that Reimu's physical skills are also first-class, but Reimu has always only shown her talent as a shrine maiden, and her talent in physical skills has not been fully demonstrated, so people mistakenly think that Reimu's physical skills are not very good.
But in fact, Reimu had previously fought against the beast-like Leona, so how could her physical skills be that bad?
