Sauichiro: rebuilding Ashina from the obliteration of the pillar

Chapter 222 Final Preparations

In the second half of Meiji 43 (1910), several major events took place.

The first is that this year's natural disasters combined with the country's reliance on food imports deliberately ignored the interests of farmers, resulting in famines in hundreds of villages in various counties.

Landlords in several villages even persuaded the submissive peasants to starve themselves to death and not go to the cities for help under the pretext of "begging is a disgrace" and "will discredit the country and His Majesty", and then annexed other villages. Land, sold to capitalists who needed to open factories.

Thus it can be seen that the rapid progress of commerce and industry in this country has been at the expense of a large number of ordinary peasants.

Some oppressed workers and peasants didn't want to be victims anymore, so they raised the banner saying "reformation is fiercer than evil spirits", and led by a few insightful people, they set off a civil red movement.However, these leading figures were arrested and interrogated by government spies on the grounds of "attempting to assassinate the emperor with a bomb", which even attracted international attention, and was known as the "Great Rebellion" incident in history.

So, what does this have to do with Wei Ming and the Ghost Slayer Squad?

Of course!
These ordinary people who couldn't survive found that it was impossible to use political activities to survive, so they began to cut down and burn wisteria trees in groups, or pray in remote abandoned temples, and use blood as bait , I hope that some ghosts will come to the door and turn them into the same kind.

In this way, even if they have no food, they can eat the rich people who oppress them to survive.

Even if they can't become ghosts, they hope to be eaten by ghosts instead of dying worthless on the side of the road, because this is what society does to them: cannibalism.

There are tens of thousands of such desperate people in all parts of Japan, which has caused very serious negative effects.

It is conceivable that he no longer trusts his former subordinates, Onimiya Tsuji, and is very interested in their "invitation".

Although the Ghost Killing Squad has tried its best to stop it, after investigation and police interrogation, at least 400 people have been determined to be transformed into ghosts voluntarily.And more participants became the first food for those newborn ghosts, but there were very few people who resisted...

After this incident was exposed, it was called "the most tragic rebellion in human history" by foreign newspapers.

As for the second major event, the bottle of "sediment of the human heart" that Genichiro handed over to Xiao finally played a role.

Because of the influence of that thing, those powerful officers from the Sachang faction became irritable, greedy and suspicious. In just a few days, there were many extremely vicious incidents of officer wounding and killing.

And their leaders, the two veterans of the military, Yamagata Aritomo and Katsura Katsura, were also labeled as "rebels" because they criticized the emperor in public.

As a result, they not only did not apologize, but instead used their influence to bypass the cabinet, privately mobilized cronies and troops to arrest political opponents who attacked them, and even admitted the army’s massacres in Asian countries in interviews with foreign reporters, and proudly He said bluntly: "This is to make the soldiers relax. It is completely normal in war", which caused an international sensation.

Their consequences can be imagined - the furious Emperor Meiji issued an edict to revoke their privileges as elders, but those direct officers who were faintly mad did not listen to the command, and they were about to mutiny immediately, but they were caught by a group of people who suddenly appeared The mysterious ninja killed on the spot...

The situation after that was almost the same as Genichiro thought.

The Japanese feudal lords were completely toppled, the dead officers were judged as rebels, the original military establishment was dismantled and reorganized, and a large number of non-factional officers were promoted, many of whom were re-educated Wei Mingzhong—— —Although the high-level military and police are still mostly descendants of fallen heroes, among the middle and low-level generals in Tokyo, Wei Mingren accounts for about 5.00% of the weight, and there will be more in the future, but few people know this...

By the time they reacted later, it was too late.

……

Two days before the winter solstice, in the phantom corridor.

Genichiro held Tie Liuyun across his chest, and was surrounded by nine men holding weapons on the big tree in the center.

But it wasn't him who showed vigilance, but the panting pillars.

Just yesterday, the last of them, the new Snake Zhu named Yihei Xiaobanei, also passed the assessment of Yiwozuo, and mastered the ability to enter the transparent world for a short time.

So far, the nine pillars of the Demon Slayer Team (Yan Yan Yin Hua Shui Feng Chong Xia Snake) - including the Yan Zhu Purgatory Makijuro who was harassed by Masataka Oniwa so much that he had to return - finally mastered all of them Techniques for entering a state of transparency.

This means that the eight pillars present have the qualification to stand opposite one of the upper strings without being instantly killed.

Therefore, when they heard from Yi Woza that Genichiro is now comparable to Kamizuru, they launched this challenge to him, wanting to see the gap between themselves and their imaginary opponents.

But more than ten minutes had passed, and Genichiro hadn't even used his breath for a day, but they couldn't even inflict a slightly serious wound.

Obviously everyone can see that world, why can you just hide at will?

Simply outrageous!

This is the common thought in everyone's mind.

"Don't be impatient."

Sorrowful Yu Xingming can feel everyone's mood from the breathing rhythm, "Mr. Weiming's eyes, like Shinobi, have undergone special training, and what he sees will be slower than what you see."

Xianichiro nodded silently in his heart, the great monk's judgment was very accurate.

Unexpectedly, it was the first time they fought against each other, and Beimingyu Xingming saw so many things.

His eyes have been strengthened twice through [See Through] and [Ninja Eyes], and they have extremely strong dynamic vision.

And Butterfly Ninja only learned [See Through] from Xiao Xiao, but it is also better than others.

If other people see things at 0.25 times speed after turning on transparency, and Butterfly Shinobi at 0.2 times speed, then Genichiro's is about 0.15 times, which gives him more reaction time to dodge and counterattack.

"So, as long as he can't see our actions?
"Then block his sight!"

As Butterfly Ninja uttered a cry, a flash of understanding flashed across Kakino's eyes immediately, and the others also moved together!
"Xia's Breath · Five Shapes · Sea of ​​Clouds!"

All of a sudden, a thick mist of water poured into Kakino's surroundings and rushed towards Genichiro.

Genichiro knew that Kakino Kusakami was moving at high speed in this sea of ​​fog, but he couldn't determine its exact location.

"If you don't come up with some real skills, you will die!"

He raised the corner of his mouth, and slapped out his palm in the way of kowtowing combo boxing and subduing demons, breaking up the thick clouds and mist into white vortex holes——

But at this moment, he saw the shadows of three sun wheel knives!
The cyan one is naturally Immortal Kawasami; the light blue to white one is Kakino Kusaki; and the curved blade on the far side is naturally the unique weapon in Ihei Minibus.

Except for Butterfly Shinobu, the three most agile members of the Demon Slayer Squad hide in the fog created by Katsuno Kusanagi and carry out a sneak attack!

It seems that the failure of the previous frontal attack taught them quite a lot of lessons.

But it is precisely because of the flexibility of the three of them that it is impossible for Genichiro to attack them at the same time with a wide range of slashes, so he chose to attack the straight Immortal Kawa Miniya first - a horizontal Xianfeng kick swept out from the side , directly bumped into Undead Chuan's shoulder, making a crisp cracking sound, and the shape changed completely.

Immortal Chuan didn't fight with Genichiro for a long time, he didn't expect him to be so powerful, his body involuntarily bumped towards the two people next to him, but he avoided it without any surprise.

"...Heh, it feels like my arm is broken. However, it's fine if I can still move!
"Breath of Wind · One Shape · Dust Whirlwind · Slash!"

Being forcibly interrupted, Undead Chuan could only bear the pain and swung a spiraling sword energy on the spot, interfering with Xianichiro's line of sight and creating opportunities for the other two to move on.

But he never expected that Genichiro, who is most familiar with Breath of Wind, didn't even look at it, and just waved his sword lightly——

With a bang, the whirlwind of dust actually flew in another direction, shooting down the Butterfly Ninja who was hidden by illusion into mid-air, if it wasn't for the ax thrown by Beiming Yu Xingming to give her a point of leverage , she fell directly under the tree and died.

"Sure enough, he knew my position from the beginning!"

Butterfly frowned, but immediately let go.

She saw Kakino Katsura approaching and causing the mist to rise again, while Onzhu Usui Tengen sneaked behind Genichiro——

Although he is tall, his ability to hide is also very good, and he didn't even make a sound.

However, just when he raised his swords and planned to cooperate with the others to cut off Genichiro's shoulders, the latter turned around without warning, and finally shot six shots at Yin Zhu's head.

If you shoot in the face, Hei Si Mou can dodge, can you?

Yusui Tianyuan's answer is yes, but not completely.

"First!"

Genichiro snorted coldly.Then the big danger word reminds me that I won't be able to see it?

Yinzhu was shot three times in a row, and half of his head was stained red with blood, but he still recognized a large handful of explosives before his body dissipated.

"This is my... last gorgeousness..."

"Good job!"

Butterfly could not wait for the right time, and used Qianben to accurately capture the positions of those bombs, trying to detonate them one by one.

Ke Xianichiro was unhurried, raised his foot and stepped on the blue blade stabbing in the clouds, grabbed the weapon and grabbed Tomioka Yoshiyuki's shoulder and threw him towards the explosives.

Yoshiyuki Tomioka and Dynamite looked at each other, almost in zero-distance contact, the kind that almost fell into their mouths—and Butterfly Ninja’s Chimoto just happened to rub sparks with the surface of the steel ball.

Tomioka Yoshiyuki didn't even have time to open his mouth to speak, he was blown up and resurrected.

"the second."

At the same time as a loud bang exploded, Genichiro squatted down and opened the Suzaku Red Lotus Umbrella, and the bursting hot air naturally avoided him and rushed to both sides!
"good chance!"

The flames dissipated, and everyone saw him crouching in the red umbrella without moving, and a few people except Butterfly Ninja rushed forward.

But no one expected that when they were less than one meter away from Genichiro, the red umbrella suddenly split from the middle, and replaced by a flaming solar gun and a sweeping sweep with a huge range.

"The third."

Butterfly Kanae who was swept away first had her lumbar spine broken, and crashed into the arms of Undead Chuan next to her like a falling kite, and she lost her breath without even saying a word.

Even though he knew he was in the phantom corridor, Undead Chuan's face turned red visibly, obviously very angry——

But at this moment, a faint reminder appeared in my ears: "Do you think I will wait for you to get angry and open the stripes?"

Among the Nine Pillars, apart from Butterfly Ninja, Yanzhu, Yanzhu, and Immortal Kawashiya all had the experience of opening their markings.

This should be related to their good physical fitness and their ability to maintain high temperatures for a long time.

Undead Chuan twisted his head fiercely and swung his sword, but he slammed the sword body with a purple clear ax!
"Zheng-"

A loud noise exploded in everyone's minds, as if a thunderbolt from the sky broke their brain circuits, and everything in front of them was shaking back and forth crazily, as if all the colors and sounds had lost their original meaning and became unexplainable. mess.

The Liuli ax upgraded from Yuanzhi Liuli has the same mental interference ability as Naruto!
Genichiro seized the gap period when everyone lost their ability to resist, first stabbed the undead river who was close at hand with a knife, and then shot the shuriken across the sneak attacking duo - Kakino Kusakami and Yi The throat inside the black minibus.

"four, five, six……"

While counting the numbers, Xianichiro took the opportunity to approach the sad Mingyu Xingming who was dripping with cold sweat on his forehead, and wanted to solve the biggest threat directly, but the latter's expression suddenly became cold after Xianichiro approached, like a thorny meteor The hammer hit Genichiro on the head!
"Breath of Rock · Two Shapes · Sky Shatter!"

The ball was surrounded by heavy wind pressure, even if it was the door of the bank's fresh-keeping warehouse, it would burst on the spot if it was hit by this thing.

"You are not affected?"

Xianichiro turned his head to avoid it, but the tip of his ear was still cut off by the iron ball's spikes. This was the result of his use of transparency to dodge, otherwise he would definitely be regarded as killed.

Anyone who thinks that this monk is only strong will definitely suffer a big loss because of this terrible attack speed.

At the same time, Genichiro immediately understood that this rock pillar used transparent micro-manipulation to pretend to be out of balance and sweating, in order to attract him and save the others from suffering.

However, he, the blind man, should be the one most easily affected by the sound in the field, right?
Why would the noise made by the glazed ax not work on him?
"In order to be able to concentrate, the poor monk once sat in a big bell and let others beat the clock face to exercise his mind..."

The monk said, "What I don't want to hear will naturally not fall into my ears."

"..." Xianichiro opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to spit out a sentence, "I thought the monks in Xianfeng Temple were strange enough."

Just as the two of them were going back and forth, the others gradually regained their spirits, surrounded them with gloomy faces, and surrounded Genichiro in a triangular posture.

"Young people are awesome. I didn't expect you to be able to do this without even using breathing techniques."

Purgatory Makijuro sighed, "However, if I lose to your teacher first, and then lose to you, I will really be ashamed to see Xingjurou again."

"I'm very angry that you hit my sister so hard." This is naturally Butterfly Shinobi, although a little angry, but still quite calm.

"Benefactor, next, let's show some real skills."

After Beimingyu Xingming finished speaking, the three people's foreheads, cheeks and necks simultaneously had their own different patterns.

"Since you ask so."

Genichiro raised the blade high and made a slashing posture, and suddenly circles of crimson arcs lit up under his feet.

"Then let you take a look at the results of my research on "Weing Wuxinliu"."

"The breath of the source, Thunder style..."

"One word cut..."

"Five companies!"

　Breath of the Source·Thunder Style, Water Style, Fancy Style, Flame Style, Japanese Style
