I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

This wall happened to be the wall with Ogata's portrait on it.

This wall happened to be replaced by a new portrait of Ogata.

Because this portrait was not long after it was pasted up, the glue is not sticking well.

After Guasheng hit the wall, the portrait was shaken off the wall due to the strong impact, and fell lightly to the ground.

After falling to the ground, Guasheng covered his stomach with one hand, and supported the ground with the other hand, propping up his upper body.

The taste of "iron" came out of his mouth.

The portrait of Ogata that fell from the wall happened to land beside Guasheng.

Guasheng turned his head and looked at Ogata's portrait.

Looking at the portrait of Ogata, Gua Sheng showed complex emotions on his face.

In this complex emotion, the dominant color is the color of firmness.

Guasheng stretched out his left hand, grabbed this portrait of Ogata, and hugged this portrait of Ogata to his chest as if caring for some fragile treasure.

"It's really meaningless to fight with women." Ji Taro curled his lips, "No matter how much you practice, it can't make up for the innate physical fitness gap."

"Tired of playing."

"If you are the daughter of the owner who escaped 4 years ago, then you are only 16 years old this year."

"Although you are considered an adult, you still look like a child."

"I'm not a last resort. I don't want to kill children and people who look like children. Killing them has no sense of accomplishment."

"Hey, you two."

Kyutaro turned his head to look at the two subordinates behind him.

"I'll leave this woman to you two to deal with."

"After killing her, chop off her head."

"Ketaro, let's go. The burnt smell of the flames has already passed and it's a bit unpleasant. I don't want to stay here anymore. Let's go outside to get some air."

"Yes!" The young man holding a short gun and waiting beside him respectfully replied.

"Hey! Wait!" Guasheng snarled at Jitaro after standing up again, "Don't leave!"

"Don't go?" Ji Taro smiled mockingly, "You can't even stop me, how can you dare to let me not go?"

After all, Ji Taro ignored Guasheng again, and led Keitaro towards the outside of the room.

Guasheng wants to chase after him.

But just now, the two ninjas who were ordered by Ji Taro to stay and deal with Guasheng surrounded him

Ji Taro and Keitaro left Guasheng's house one after the other.

In order to avoid smelling the unpleasant smell of burning, Ji Taro and Keitaro walked all the way to a place some distance from Guasheng's home, and then stood on the roof of a house.

After taking a deep breath of fresh air, Ji Taro looked at the serious fire in the distance, and smiled at Keitaro beside him:

"Keitaro, it's been a long time since I've done such an interesting task. I can't get tired of watching the scene where the flames burn everything."

"Well, yes." Keitaro smiled.

"Huh? Keitaro, what's wrong with you? Why do you look depressed?"

Hui Taro is Ji Taro's old partner.

Almost 5 years ago, Ji Taro and Keitaro successfully completed a mission that was so dangerous that they almost killed them.

The two became acquainted at this task 5 years ago.

Because the two people's personalities are very compatible, and they have the experience of living and dying together, the two of them have always been inseparable.

Ji Taro has always regarded Keitaro as his best partner and friend.

Ji Taro even went to Yoshiwara to have fun, and he always took Keitaro with him.

When encountering any tasks, Ji Taro will try his best to take Keitaro with him.

Because of the deep friendship and usually staying together, Ji Taro felt that Keitaro seemed to be in a bad mood tonight.

"Master Jitaro, don't worry about me." Keitaro shook his head lightly, "I just feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach, maybe I ate something wrong today."

"Oh? Then do you want to take a shit?"

"No. It's not the kind of stomachache that you want to poop, or simply feeling a little uncomfortable in your stomach."

"That's it." Ji Taro patted Keitaro's shoulder vigorously, "Then after you return to Shiranui, you can drink some medicine."

After all, Kyutaro once again turned his gaze to the fire in the distance.

After watching the raging fire in the distance for a while, Ji Taro turned his gaze to the full moon above his head.

Tonight is a sunny day, or a full moon night.

Looking at the full moon above his head, Kyotaro raised his right hand.

Point the palm of your right hand at the full moon, and then slowly draw your palms together.

It looks like he wants to hold the moon in his hand.

"After tonight, my achievements will shine brighter"

Kyutaro spoke softly to Keitaro beside him in an almost emotional tone.

"Continuing on like this, it is not impossible to replace Shuntaro and become the most promising person to take over the position of the next Balrog."

If there is anyone who is most likely to become the next Balrog right now, it is without a doubt Shuntaro.

Shuntaro is undoubtedly the strongest. Although he has always carried out every task with a careless attitude, no matter what the task is, Shuntaro can always complete it satisfactorily.

Strong strength coupled with excellent talent makes the call for "Shuntaro to be the next Balrog" the loudest.

Ji Taro has been dissatisfied with this.

Ji Taro is not a man without ideals.

His ideal is to become the next Balrog, the next person with the highest power in Shiranui.

He knows that he may spend his whole life, and it is impossible to surpass Shuntaro in personal strength.

In order to make up for this disadvantage of his own, Ji Taro will do his best in every task.

Showing a much stronger talent than Shun Taro This is the only place where Ji Taro has a chance to surpass Shun Taro.

And these efforts of Ji Taro have finally paid off in recent years.

The voice of "Gekutaro taking over the position of Balrog" is getting louder and louder.

The power of "Gekutaro supporters" is almost rivaling that of "Shuntaro supporters".

Papapa

At this moment, a series of footsteps sounded around Kyutaro.

The 8 shinobi from Shiranui ran towards Ji Taro quickly.

When they came to the front and back of Ji Taro, the eight shinobi knelt down on one knee, and the leader reported loudly to Ji Taro:

"Master Jitaro, I finally found you, we have completed the task of setting fire!"

"Yeah." Ji Taro nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

Tonight, in addition to Keitaro, Balrog also sent 2 Zhongnin and 10 Xianin to Jitaro to help Jitaro.

Kyutaro divides his men into two groups.

The group consists of the 8 ninjas who are responsible for setting fires and creating chaos.

The other route was led by Ji Taro himself, leading Keitaro and the two Chunin to take advantage of the chaos and go straight to Gua Sheng's house, obliterating Gua Sheng.

"Now wait for those two people to bring Guasheng's head over." Ji Taro said softly.

Guasheng could see that the two people in front of him were far behind Ji Taro in terms of strength.

If it is in its prime and it is one-on-one, Gua Sheng should be able to win.

But now it is a one-on-two, and Guasheng has been injured by Ji Taro just now, so even though he has been fighting hard, he has gradually fallen into a disadvantage.

Under the joint attack of the two, Gua Sheng was kicked to the ground again.

Holding the ground with a wooden knife, he wanted to stand up again, but Guasheng found that he didn't even have the strength to stand up.

Is it over?

A faint look of despair and unwillingness appeared on Gua Sheng's face.

Looking at Guasheng who was already looking desperate, the two Chunin began to whisper.

"Hey, this girl looks so cute, it's a pity to kill her like this, why not?"

"It's nothing better, kill her quickly, so that you can return to Master Jitaro quickly."

"All right"

The Chunin who was persuaded, and the Chunin who insisted on killing Guasheng from the very beginning, held their ninja swords and walked towards Guasheng quickly.

Bang!

Guasheng had already closed her eyes, ready to meet the ninja knife who was about to chop off her head.

But when they were all ready, they suddenly heard a muffled sound coming from beside them.

Whether Gua Sheng or the two Chunin, they were all attracted by this strange noise.

Gua Sheng opened his eyes and followed the sound.

All I saw was a familiar figure, and there were pieces of paper windows all over the ground under the figure's feet.

"Mashima-kun?!"

Looking at this figure, a surprised cry came from Gua Sheng's throat.

After getting out of the fight with that guy due to the sudden intervention of the official, Ogata rushed towards Yoshihara at a speed that could be called "running wildly".

When approaching the Nippon Embankment, Ogao saw the soaring flames emanating from Yoshiwara.

Just at this time, the fire that broke out in Yoshihara filled Ogata's heart with an ominous premonition.

It made Ogata deeply realize that there might be someone really trying to harm Guasheng.

After approaching the gate of Yoshiwara, Obe saw the dense flow of people fleeing from Yoshiwara's gate and Sodemon towards the outside of Yoshiwara.

The dense flow of people blocked the gate of Yoshiwara tightly.

Through normal means, there is no way to enter Yoshiwara.

So Ogata could only find a place where no one was there, and then use Shiranui's stealth technique to climb over the tall wooden wall surrounding Yoshihara.

Ogata has never been like this, thankful that he has upgraded Shiranui's stealth to "intermediate level".

If it is "elementary" stealth, there is no way to climb over such a tall city wall.

Ogata went to Guasheng's home once, and he remembered where Guasheng's home was.

Because he had worked in Yoshihara for a period of time, Ogata also knew what shortcuts he could take.

After turning into Yoshihara, Ogata took shortcuts and arrived at Guasheng's home.

The shortcut that Ogata took led directly to the window of Gua Sheng's living room.

Because he didn't want to waste time walking slowly through the main entrance, Ogata chose to break through the window made of paper and wood, and directly broke into Guasheng's house.

As soon as he broke through the window and broke into Guasheng's home, Xu Bian saw Guasheng kneeling on the ground with bruises all over his body.

And two men in black standing in front of Guasheng.

Guasheng and the two men in black were located in the corridor connected to the living room, so Ogata could see Guasheng and others just after breaking through the window in the living room that happened to be opposite to the corridor.

"Mashima-kun?!"

Looking at Ogata who suddenly appeared, the shocked Guasheng couldn't help calling out Ogata's alias.

Ogata just wanted to say something to Guasheng.

The two men in black standing in front of Guasheng raised their knives and charged at Ogata.

Although it is not clear who this person is and why he appeared here, in order not to have any witnesses during the "Killing Gua Shengxiu", these two Chunin came to Ogata without any hesitation, intending to kill Ogata and silence him .
