Rebirth of Japan's Sekiro Legacy

Chapter 317 Fighting to the death with wolves

At this moment, the lava below the crater began to change.

The magma began to turn golden, and the monstrous magic power hit like a wave, but when it was about to rush out, it was pulled by an inexplicable force, returned to the bottom layer to "cast" again, and repeated several times, the lava from the bottom layer The center began to emit black gas gradually. When the gas came into contact with the magic solid that turned into dots of blue, it immediately turned into a blue-purple flame column.

Mythologists say that the ancient Japanese witnessed golden lava overflowing from the crater, and believed that the magma was the so-called "water of the underworld", so a shrine was built in Yamanashi Prefecture to suppress the so-called "gate of hell" and prevent the water of the underworld from pouring out with the souls of the dead. into the world.The ancients believed it right, this is the Rashomon Gate, the gate of hell, and also the gate of ghosts in the exorcist population, where countless demons are watching, ready to rush out of the cage at any time.

But the scene in front of him is what the gate of the underworld will look like when it is actually opened.

Burning red and purple blue, mixed with magnificent gold, the monsters climbing up from the bottom opened their eyes, their dark pupils reflected the morning sun sky, their mouths neighed excitedly, stretching their bodies, the scales of their bodies Fully opened, the whole body is breathing the air of the world, and the magma remaining on the body brings them a strange beauty.

The supply of magic power is sufficient, and their power has grown and recovered to the extreme.

The opening of the ghost gate is essentially a "natural phenomenon" that exists within the laws of this world.

Just like the alternation of old and new species, the strong can survive, while the weak will be eliminated.

Although the opening of the ghost gate itself does not have this idea, it is a manifestation of an unconscious world structure, but there is no doubt that the consequences of its opening are the same.

Demons and humans will undoubtedly trigger a war between the two species.

They yearn for the huge living space and resources of human beings, and human beings will obviously not make concessions for this.

The result of this contradiction is war.

"My long-cherished wish is about to come true tonight!" Genichiro's eyes reflected the brilliant molten liquid.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

"It's just to accomplish my goal, and I will do anything for it." Genichiro held up the blade lightly, and said softly, "Look, my country is under this hot molten lava."

The exorcist's shouts kept coming from the communicator, but the three vampires had no intention of answering.

Because they clearly saw a huge city emerging under the surging magma...

This is impossible. How could there be a huge city at the bottom of Mount Fuji?
That hot lava will dissolve anything!Except for those monsters, because the magic power attached to their bodies protects them from being eroded by magma.

How can it be?

How can it be?

Countless thoughts flashed through the vampire's mind, and finally he thought of a statement that could only explain this phenomenon.

The monsters kept coming out and gathered, they should have been happy at this moment, they seemed to be a well-trained army.

Then their leaders came to Genichiro and threw the three vampires into the crater.

"As the price of freedom, this time, we will fight for you."

"Yes..." Genichiro said, "Get ready, we are going to charge down the mountain tonight."

"But the ghost gate...it seems that it has not been fully opened, and it is later than the scheduled time."

"Because the collection of blood failed, but don't worry, just today, the gate of hell will be fully opened." Genichiro looked down at the slowly surging magma under his feet, and the vampires underneath were struggling hard, but it was still unavoidable sinking fate.

But they were not struggling for their lives. One of the vampires stretched out his hand as hard as he could, holding the walkie-talkie in his hand.

"The second method...!! The second method...! The second method..."

His voice was hoarse, and he kept repeating these three words until his mouth and nose were flooded by hot lava, and finally even the walkie-talkie was deformed and melted... Before he died, he was passing some kind of message to the exorcists.

But Xianichiro didn't see those dying vampires and the so-called messages at all. He only had eyes on the city under the molten magma, shining like a sea of ​​stars.

Secret Biography · Flying through the whirlpool cloud!
The wolf soared into the air, and the blade drew countless arcs in the air, and the quick and ruthless slashes continuously weakened Nozomi Arakawa's torso.

Although flying across the vortex cloud can allow the people to use a combo like flowing water without touching them, but there is a time when flying up and landing.

Nozomi Arakawa seized the moment when the wolf's feet touched the ground, and slashed straight down with both hands holding the knife.

【One word cut】!
With a vigorous step, most of the consumed torso recovered in an instant.

A merciless slash from the front can cut even the hardest mysteel.

The wolf's body shook, and it backed up quickly, like a light butterfly.

When the wolf was about to fight back, Nozomi Arakawa continued to step forward, and the moment his feet vibrated on the ground, Wedgemaru swung down again.

[One-word cut·Erlian]

On the basis of the one-word slash, continue to launch the chasing style moves.

This time the wolf could only dodge.

He stepped to the left to distance himself, swung his right hand on his waist, and saw two flashes of white light, and a cross appeared on Arakawa Nozomi's chest... This was the result of trying his best to avoid it, otherwise his There will also be an extra cross in the heart.

This is Ashina's cross slash, probably the fastest Iai slash in history.

Arakawa looked into the wolf's eyes, and the wolf rushed forward again, with the blade straight to his head.

And he also slashed in the same way, cutting towards the wolf's head.

The blades collided with each other, spilling a large amount of sparks, falling into the snow and smiling.

They have been fighting for hours.

And things are getting more and more wrong.

This scene is not a training, nor a duel, but a deathmatch.

The wolf's eyes were completely indifferent, and he seemed to have returned to his previous state.As sharp as a knife.

He treats Arakawa Wang just like he treats a real enemy, mercilessly, and does his best to defeat the enemy.

This kind of person has a very good compatibility with Wei Mingliu, the knife in his hand does not seem to move with the body, but with the mind.No matter which direction you want to slash, the knife will pass, and even if you lack your right hand, you will not be restricted at all.

Arakawa Nozomi's state is also quite "immersive".

All he could see at the moment was the wolf and the knife in his hand.

One wrong step can lead to a big mistake.

He didn't think about why the wolf wanted to kill him, because he was completely immersed in this battle, and all his actions were aimed at defeating his opponent.

The snow in the dilapidated monastery was in a mess, the bamboo forest was almost cut down, the red blood melted the ice and snow, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard endlessly.

Nozomi Arakawa used all his tricks, not even daring to blink his eyes.

Maybe in the blink of an eye, he will die in the hands of wolves.

Wrists were shaking, and the skeleton of the body creaked and screamed.

But he still methodically blocked the wolf's attack and countered at the right time.

He couldn't hold on any longer. Although his thoughts and consciousness were very clear, his opponent was a wolf, a ninja who could be called a "legendary".

His torso was gradually shrinking, and it was impossible to use a one-stroke slash anymore. The wolf would not give him a chance to breathe.

If this continues, the torso will be exhausted, and he will undoubtedly die.

But Arakawa Wang knew in his heart that he must not die.

Relatives, friends... Faces that he was familiar with emerged... There was a dead end behind him, and he had no way to retreat.

If you can't even overcome this hurdle, how can you defeat Yixin?
But even though he exhausted all his tricks, he was still resolved one by one by the wolf...

It's no wonder that he inherited the inheritance of the wolf, and it was really difficult to break through the wolf.

This is like a famous teacher giving birth to an excellent apprentice, but the apprentice spends his life, and may never be able to surpass the master's achievements.

The wolf approached forward, swept across with a short body, forcing Nozomi Arakawa to jump up, and then used Xianfeng's feet to meet the air.The brutal and powerful kicks were interspersed with consecutive slashes, which made it hard to guard against. Finally, he used a single slash in the air to deal a heavy blow to Nozomi Arakawa.

Nozomi Arakawa bounced away continuously, and before he split his head with a single stroke, he held the saber with both hands. Although the bones of his legs were almost broken and he couldn't stand up, he still blocked it.

In such a fierce battle between the two sides, there were only a few afterimages left in the air, which made him even have no time to use the ninja tool.

The wolves swooped around him, worthy of a ninja, with cunning and insidiousness still running in his blood despite years of laying down his arms.

He is a ninja, in order to defeat the enemy, he can do whatever it takes!
After the combo of attacks around the body was over, the wolf kicked Arakawa Nozomi's body violently and turned over.

But this is not some wolf's sudden pity to give Arakawa Wang a chance to breathe.

Instead, he sprints quickly with the Giant Ninja Fall Kill.

Arakawa turned sideways, and the wolf's blade followed like a python chasing its prey, piercing through his cheating.

The veins on his forehead popped up, and Nozomi Arakawa took this opportunity to hold the wolf's blade, ignoring the blood in his hands, and walked with two swords in his right hand, exerting the strength of the sword to the extreme, opening and closing extremely powerfully, without any hesitation and muscle strain.If the wolf doesn't give up his weapon, he will be chopped off at the waist!

Although as a junior, Nozomi Arakawa, who has inherited the legacy of the wolf, also has fox-like cunning and tiger-like minions.

Not only rely on swordsmanship in battle, but also brain and reaction.

But the wolf did not give up the weapon. He used the knife in his hand as a fulcrum, and rotated his body 360 degrees, perfectly avoiding Nozomi Arakawa's opening and closing cuts. Then he actually let go of the handle of the knife, and his whole body rushed towards In the arms of Nozomi Arakawa...

【Kowtowing Combo Fist · Demon Breaking】!
A series of heavy attacks hit Nobuo Arakawa's abdomen, almost breaking his internal organs and changing their positions.

The last blow was with the shoulder as the fulcrum. The wolf slammed against Nozomi Arakawa's chest and sent Nomo Arakawa flying, but he also staggered on the spot, leaning on the ground with his knife, and finally stopped with difficulty.

The old wall beside the gate of the dilapidated monastery was strong enough to withstand the strong impact without collapsing.

Arakawa coughed up bloody foam, his hands trembling and his backhand pressed against the wall, he "supported" himself out forcefully, and knelt down in the snow, while there was a human figure in the shape of "big" printed on the wall behind him.

Blood also oozed from the corner of the wolf's mouth.

In the continuous blows of hand-to-hand combat, he was attacked by Nozomi Arakawa, which was also the punch of Xianfeng Temple.This single punch shattered the wolf's kidney and its surrounding muscles.

Originally, Nozomi Arakawa wanted to hit the wolf's heart, but the powerful blow that was brewing was hit in the wrong place because of the wolf's attack.

He was excited inside.

That's right.

This is deathmatch.

kill.

kill.

Violently, trampled the wolf under his feet...!
But in the next second, the severe pain pulled Nozomi Arakawa back from the fugue state.

His body was already "broken". Although the outside was fine, the inside of his body was purely fragmented, relying entirely on bones and silky flesh to hold the body together.

"It seems that using Wei Mingliu is not enough..." Nozomi Arakawa began to analyze in his heart, "The wolf understands Wei Mingliu better than himself, and he can break the trick when he sees it. If he continues like this, he will be beaten to death... we can only Changed the school of swordsmanship."

He stood up tremblingly, took a deep breath, and let his trunk rest briefly.

After a while, the wolf drew his sword and returned to the fighting posture. After such a long battle, only half of his tattered clothes were left hanging on his body at this moment. As the cold wind swayed, he simply tore off the pieces of cloth , only the cloth pimple tied on the left arm is left, so as not to block the view when it is blown up.

Although he was over half a hundred years old, the muscles on Wolf Jingchi's body were knotted, and his skin was bronze-colored.

He swung his knife to cut off a stone pillar in front of the temple, and even the wooden box inside the stone pillar was also cut open.

Something was flying along with sawdust and stones, the wolf blade picked it up, and immediately took the object into his hands.

Arm-like shape, parts covered in oil and blood... Nozomi Arakawa recognized what it was.

——Ninja prosthetic hand.The wolf's magical weapon.

Looking at the ninja prosthetic hand quietly, the wolf's fingers moved slightly, untied the cloth strip on the left arm, and put it on the left arm...

The wolf's left arm was erected in front of his chest, and his right hand placed the knife on the inner elbow of the left arm, sliding slowly, as if to wipe off the dirt on the knife.

But with the friction between the blade and the ninja hand, a flame evaporated on the wolf's blade, and even the whole ninja hand burned up...

Today, he has returned to the peak state of his youth.

Nozomi Arakawa holds the knife with his backhand and hides the blade under his ribs, so that when facing the front, the wolf cannot see clearly how he holds the knife, and more importantly, it is impossible to predict the angle of his knife, which is very important for rebounding and blocking is extremely disadvantageous.

After a short rest, the wolf rose up again, with even greater strength.

Due to the existence of the ninja prosthetic hand, the wolf's attack is more varied.

And Nozomi Arakawa's sword technique also played a role. The wolf had never seen such a weird way of holding a knife, and he couldn't predict the angle of his sword. After several rounds of fighting, he failed to hurt Nomo Arakawa.

It was another battle, and this time even the ghost Buddha in the temple was cut off.

The dilapidated monastery became a ruin, flames were burning everywhere, and the falling snowflakes were evaporated before they could hit the ground.

The flames were always burning on the wolf's left arm and the blade, and the killing intent on the field was biting like canine teeth.

Both of them have almost exhausted all their physical strength and torso, and they can hardly even stand up.

However, they were still able to squeeze out the last bit of strength inside their bodies.

Nozomi Arakawa locked the wolf's eyebrows, and the wolf locked Nozomi Arakawa's throat.

All the bows are fully stringed, just waiting for the moment when the blood bursts out.
