Chapter 212 The Meeting Between Ex and Current Partner
The sound of objects hitting the ground was like raindrops striking the bottom, rising and falling, continuing for quite a while before stopping.
The final explosion of the formation by the Dark Ninja blasted everything within a hundred meters into fragments.
But when the smoke and dust cleared, a small figure stood proudly in the huge crater at the center of the explosion.
Although he has all four limbs intact, Kenshin's eyes are no longer as bright, and blood is seeping from all seven orifices.
"Aba is still waiting for me, what does this little injury matter!"
The buzzing sound in my ears was incessant, and the scene before my eyes seemed to be covered by a blurry film.
Even in this state, he continued to move towards his final goal.
Taiyi stood in the sky, watching Kenshin move swiftly through the dense forest, his figure seemingly completely unharmed, as if he hadn't suffered any injury at all. A sense of admiration rose in Taiyi's heart.
"A pure samurai, with an extremely resolute heart."
"If only this perseverance were channeled into martial arts, it would be even better."
Taiichi has never hidden his admiration for Kenshin.
Pure and kind people deserve to be liked and respected wherever they go.
However, for this era, or for the future, the fate of such people is often not ideal.
In the eyes of those politicians of the Meiji Restoration faction, Kenshin was an extremely useful assassination tool.
What was valued about him was only his swordsmanship skills and his simple, easily fooled heart.
After all, Kenshin Himura was only 15 years old at this time.
If he were the kind of child who grew up in a wealthy family and was taught by his parents how to judge people and situations, Taiichi believed that he would definitely not be so foolish as to follow Katsura Kogoro's orders.
The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks.
Becoming an assassin, regardless of right or wrong, and killing solely because of factionalism—such a person will inevitably face reckoning in the end.
Perhaps out of pity, or perhaps because Katsura Kogoro still had some kindness, in the original story, after Kenshin lost Yukishiro Tomoe, Katsura Kogoro turned her into a guerrilla swordsman, which, to put it bluntly, meant that she could appear in people's sight openly.
The other samurai who took Kenshin's place and became the new executioner of the Choshu faction's Heavenly Punishment ended up disfigured and covered in burns after the war, only able to survive by wrapping himself in bandages.
That's right, the man who ended up like this is named Shishio Makoto.
He thought that becoming the new assassin of the Changzhou faction would allow him to expose others every day, but in the end, he was exposed by his own people and ended up with the reputation of a traitor.
"Everyone treats you like a tool, but I won't do that."
Taiyi leisurely flew through the air, looking at the sword heart beneath his feet, a slight smile curving his lips as he chuckled and said.
Kenshin finally arrived at his destination and saw Akane Takeshi's boss.
Upon meeting, the two exchanged greetings about each other's parents before engaging in a real fight.
Although Boss An Naiwu was unarmed, the thick fist energy wrapped around his fists was like wearing a pair of steel gloves. Not only could he withstand Kenshin's blade, but he could also launch long-range attacks from a distance.
Faced with such an enemy, Kenshin felt a headache and a great deal of helplessness, but he could only drag his injured body and tough it out.
Through the half-open door of the wooden house behind Boss Anno Takeshi, he saw Yukishiro Tomoe lying on the ground, unconscious.
"Through the senses of his breath, I can tell that Aba is still alive."
"Judging from the frequency of his breathing and the fluctuations in the aura emanating from his body, Aba is injured!"
How dare you lay a hand on my wife! This is an unforgivable crime!
His eyes turned incredibly fierce, and his gradually waning aura suddenly surged.
Kenshin stared wide-eyed at his opponent, his katana continuously unleashing streaks of sword energy.
And An Naiwu, the leader, was naturally no pushover either.
In terms of body modification, due to his unique physical qualities, he was able to parasitize a centipede that was hundreds of years old.
The insect-possessed beings of Ashina are all parasitic on a centipede that has mutated due to infection by the immortal power of the Divine Dragon.
The longer these centipedes live, the stronger their immortality becomes.
Those who are parasitized by them can naturally also use these immortal powers.
Even if Kenshin's attacks successfully wound the opponent, those wounds will heal instantly in the next second.
"Hahaha, have you witnessed my power? Today you must die here!"
With a sinister grin, Boss An Naiwu leaped up and, before landing, threw a punch at Kenshin on the ground.
boom!
A pit the size of half a basketball court appeared, but Kenshin was not in the pit.
Having successfully dodged, Kenshin frowned as he observed his opponent.
"Who will live and who will die is still uncertain!"
After shouting, Jianxin retaliated, unleashing a pale golden arc of sword energy that tore through the air like lightning, carrying a killing intent as it lunged toward Boss An Naiwu.
"break!"
boom!
Another loud bang, and Boss An Naiwu successfully blocked Kenshin's attack.
His fists were already a bloody mess, but because of his immortality, they quickly returned to normal.
But at this moment, Kenshin's eyes flickered, revealing a look of excitement.
That's it! Every time he recovers, his strength diminishes by one point!
There is no such thing as immortality; it's just a matter of varying levels of true energy.
"If one strike doesn't kill, then strike a few more times!"
Knowing the truth, Kenshin became even more composed and calm, and then stepped forward to fight his opponent.
The loud explosion of true energy outside woke up Yukishiro Tomoe, who was still unconscious.
She shakily got up from the ground, covering her cheek which was swollen from talking back, and stumbled toward the door.
The moment she opened the door, the dazzling sunlight pierced her eyes. Just as her vision blurred and she raised her hand to shield her eyes, she seemed to see a familiar figure.
"Ming...Mingliang?"
"Is that you?!"
It was her former fiancé, Qingming Liang, who was standing not far away!
She rubbed her eyes hard, and when she opened them, she saw Kenshin engaged in battle, but her fiancé was not around to clean up Akira's body.
"Is it my imagination?"
Yukishiro Tomoe stood dumbfounded at the door, staring blankly at Kenshin who was fighting.
However, she was only stunned for a short while before Kenshin on the other side had already ended the battle.
Although Anno Takeshi is very powerful, Kenshin doesn't know why, but whenever he is exhausted, a new life force will suddenly be born in his body.
And as the battle progresses, these physiques will merge into his body, making him stronger and stronger.
"This improvement is even faster than my usual cultivation! How is this possible?"
Kenshin finished off his opponent with a Dragon's Nest Flash. While feeling surprised and doubtful, he finally saw Yukishiro Tomoe at the door of the hut.
Upon seeing the person I love, all those questions from before were immediately forgotten.
"Aba, I'm here... Who are you?!"
Just as Kenshin stepped forward, preparing to rush over and embrace Yukishiro Tomoe, a figure suddenly appeared silently behind Yukishiro Tomoe.
"How dare you call me 'Aba'! You shameless scoundrel who stole another man's wife and daughter!!!"
The sound of clenched teeth, along with an extremely cold killing intent, quickly enveloped the sword heart.
