Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

But then again.

"But my brother is in cahoots with them."

"And my brother and I are in the same group."

Uesugi Eri raised her head.

She looked past the masked ghosts and at the road in the distance, seeing a Ferrari F599GT driving towards her at a very fast speed.

A victorious smile appeared on the little witch's face.

"I don't know what your conspiracy is."

"But now, if you have any last words to say—tell them to my brother!"

……

On the broad street.

The red Ferrari F599GT was like a tiger coming down the mountain, roaring fiercely as it rushed towards the ghosts blocking the door of the villa.

——That is definitely an act of disregarding human life.

But at this moment, Yuan Zhisheng could no longer care about so many things.

"All of you get out of here!"

The anxious mood from being busy for two days and two nights and the worry about Uesugi Eri perfectly merged together at this moment, prompting this usually conservative man to do the most irrational, but at the moment the most correct behavior.

"Shh-"

The car had been accelerated to its maximum speed, but suddenly the brakes were slammed on. The brake pads made a sharp and piercing sound, and the red Ferrari body instantly crossed, sweeping away the ghosts blocking the front.

Then, Yuan Zhisheng pushed open the car door and pulled out a long sword that was flashing with cold light.

【Spider Cut】.

According to legend, this is the spiritual sword that Minamoto no Raikou used to kill Onigumo.

The long sword was unsheathed, the blade gleaming as clear as water—then, as the car door opened instantly, a dazzling silver light streaked across the air.

The body of a fierce ghost was instantly broken into two pieces by the blade.

It was a very bloody scene, a prelude to a massacre - one that was about to take place in front of Eri, a little girl who had never even seen "blood".

However, just as Yuan Zhisheng jumped out of the car and plunged into these hybrids like a tiger among a flock of sheep, ready to kill them all.

"clang--"

The sound of swords clashing against each other erupted instantly.

It's the man wearing the mask.

He and his weapon, also a famous Japanese sword, the [Kagedagiku Ichimonji Norimune], collided with the spider cutter in Minamoto Chisei's hand in the air, causing a terrifying wave of air, causing the low-blooded half-breeds nearby to involuntarily retreat, some even unable to stand steadily.

This is a battle between [Emperor] and [Emperor].

As for other half-bloods, let alone getting involved, many of them didn't even have the courage to take a look.

"You guy..."

Yuan Zhisheng had never been so furious as he was now.

He swung his sword with all his might, completely abandoning his usual [Mirror Heart Mirror Style], renowned for its nimble movement and agility. Instead, he employed the [Natural Reason Style], which employed powerful and devastating force, abandoning agility while significantly increasing power, aiming for a single, deadly blow.

He gained the upper hand.

The masked man used the [Heart-Shaped Blade Style] swordsmanship, characterized by his ghostly, graceful, and deadly movements—but his flaws were also obvious. Once he encountered an enemy who could see through his movements, he would easily be at a disadvantage.

"Did you learn this sword technique specifically to restrain me?"

"Should I say, worthy of you?"

"Head of the Executive Bureau, Emperor of the Snake Eight Clan, who rules over Amaterasu of Takamagahara."

The masked man taunted.

This was a very strange scene. He was clearly the one at a disadvantage and his defense could be breached by Yuan Zhisheng at any time.

But his attitude towards Yuan Zhisheng did not seem like that of a weakling at all - on the contrary, he seemed more like the one who had the upper hand.

It was as if... he had some secret weapon that could turn defeat into victory in an instant.

"Alright, Ryoma."

"The time has come, take out that thing."

[Dragon King] suddenly ordered.

Yuan Zhisheng was startled for a moment.

He abandoned the enemy in front of him and rushed towards the woman standing in the distance but very close to Eri, subconsciously trying to stop her hand that had already been put into her pocket.

But it was too late.

She has already taken out the "weapon" that is "powerful enough to turn everything around."

That is one side...

white flag?

"Ok?"

Yuan Zhisheng was stunned and barely stopped his forward steps. He looked at the "leader" of the two fierce ghosts in front of him with a confused and even completely thoughtless look.

In contrast, the Dragon King's voice was very calm.

"We surrender."

He said it simply.

Then, the woman codenamed [Ryoma] added to his next words.

"Of course, I'm not surrendering to you, the Eight Snake Clans."

"Instead, surrender to our destined leader, our new [King General]."

Chapter 208: Former Brothers, Now Enemies

The half-breeds of the Ghost Clan surrendered.

The person who surrendered was Uesugi Erie - a girl with whom they had never had any contact before.

"Why, is it hard to understand?"

"Shouldn't it be difficult?"

Looking at the little shrine maiden's surprised expression with her mouth wide open, the masked man who finally escaped from Gen Chisei's attack tidied his clothes a little and came to Uesugi Eri again.

"Just like you and the people of the Sheqi Eight Clans are not of the same mind, but you still trust your so-called brother."

"We are not on the same page with the Sheqi Eight Clans, but we trust you."

"Uesugi Erie, I know your name, and I know how outstanding you are—you are the destined leader of our demon group, our [King General]."

[King General].

This was the second time he said the name.

Or rather, code name.

Before this, Yuan Zhisheng had never heard of this name, and he didn't know that the real leader of the ghost group was actually the [King General] - not the [Dragon King] in front of him who possessed imperial power.

But...none of this matters.

"Eriyi!"

"Don't listen to his nonsense."

Seeing that the masked man with bad intentions seemed to have the intention of approaching his sister, Gen Chisei quickly drew his sword and used his body to block Uesugi Eri who was standing behind the iron gate, once again having an absolutely direct confrontation with the leader of the Oni Clan.

"What is your purpose?"

He asked coldly with a gloomy face.

He didn't believe what the masked man said.

He didn't believe that these fierce ghosts would "surrender" to his sister.

He preferred to believe what he had speculated - a conspiracy. He only felt that there was a conspiracy against Eri, which wanted to make her unhappy.

As an older brother, Yuan Zhisheng will of course do his best to stop this conspiracy.

however--

"Purpose?"

Looking at Yuan Zhisheng's resolute face, the masked man chuckled.

"Shouldn't we be the ones asking you what your purpose is?"

"Uesugi Erie—she is the adopted daughter of our general."

"Now that our king is dead, she will naturally inherit his position and become our new leader."

"You're the ones who forcibly detained her and prevented her from finding us... In that case, we have no choice but to come to you on our own initiative."

The man whistled.

His tone was very relaxed, as if he was saying, "I feel relieved because I've eaten, so I'm not hungry."

But Yuan Zhisheng just thought it was ridiculous.

——Is Uesugi Erii the adopted daughter of the fierce demon clan’s [King General]?

Is this some kind of ridiculous joke?

Everyone in the Japanese underworld knows that Uesugi Erie's adopted father is Tachibana Masamune, the patriarch of the eight Snake families - and just two days ago, Tachibana Masamune died at the hands of the Oni Clan.

"Even if you want to confuse right and wrong, it's not like this."

Yuan Zhisheng smiled.

That's the kind of laughter that comes from being extremely angry - people will actually laugh when they are extremely speechless.

It is said that the patriarch of the eight Sheqi families is the [king general] of the fierce ghosts?

It would be better to tell him that his brother is not dead.

In this case, he might subconsciously choose to believe it because of a hint of guilt and expectation.

The masked man saw Yuan Zhisheng's disdain.

"Is that so?"

"What if I say that your brother is not actually dead."

"And standing right in front of you?"

The masked man reached out and took off his mask.

A face that looked 70% similar to Yuan Zhisheng, but with a completely different style, appeared in everyone's sight.

"What should I say to you at this time, brother?"

"Long time no see?"

"Or did I crawl out of hell?"

……

Yuan Zhisheng stood there in a daze, staring blankly at the face that was even more beautiful than a woman's.

A face that is both strange and familiar.

He had dreamed of this face countless times - but when this face appeared before him again, he couldn't believe it at all. This was the familiar face he was familiar with.

[Source young girl].

His brothers grew up in a mountain village near Kadori Shrine and depended on each other for survival.

However, due to his unstable bloodline, he went berserk and committed multiple serial murders. He was eventually killed by him, who was only an operative in the Executive Bureau at the time.

——That was Yuan Zhisheng’s nightmare.
