Chapter 184 The Return of Esdeath (-in-)

north.

The sky is full of wind and snow.

The tall, blue-haired military girl in military uniform sat in front of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. In front of her was the prince of the foreign race from the north, who was being led by a dog leash and kneeling on the ground like a wolf dog.

"Oh, is the so-called 'Hero of the North' just this kind of thing?"

"Boring."

boom--!
Jun Ji seemed to be tired of it, and casually ended the life of the northern prince with one kick. Then she held her chin with one hand and looked at the messenger who had just been brought over by the three beast warriors.

"What, does that guy Ernest have any new orders?"

a few days ago.

A messenger sent by Ernest had already arrived in the north and gave her an order to suspend the offensive and lead the army back to the North immediately. But at that time, she was in the middle of a battle with the Northern Prince, so she simply ignored the order.

midair.

If she was in a group member's world and that group member was killed by someone else, then... what would happen to her? If you are forcibly kicked back to your original world, can you still stay there normally, but once you go back, you can't come back?
The answer to this question is actually important.

But as long as Tanjiro continues to practice the "breathing method", he will inevitably face the problem of markings.

but……

In the absence of "Shangri-La" or "Mostema", even the elite troops of the empire under Esdeath can only travel slightly faster than ordinary strong men.

As the last sentence falls.

The distance between the imperial capital and the northern border is thousands of kilometers.

The biggest drawback of the "breathing method" is the "spots" caused by overload use. Although the latter can greatly enhance the user's strength, it will also burn life and shorten lifespan. Just like when a Teigu user overuses the Teigu, it will cause side effects such as physical failure.

[Eriyi: Eriyi wants to go too! 】

"...Oh? Did something like this actually happen in the imperial capital? Not only the ministers, but also the old stubborn General Bude was killed?"

Uchiha Hikaru was also concerned about Tanjiro's situation in the group.

Except for Zhanchi World and the Dragon World in ancient times, it is rare to see hundreds of thousands of people fighting on a battlefield.

[Anonymous: You have to ask Mr. Brand. 】

[Brand: Well, there is currently a war in my world, and even I can’t guarantee that I will survive... If everything ends smoothly, I will invite you over again. 】

Anyway, the complete annihilation of the foreign races in the north will only take a few days.

[Tietouwa: It seems that there has been...]

It makes no difference to her whether she goes back a few days earlier or a few days later.

Even, Uchiha Hikari had to try her best to ensure the survival of the group members to ensure that she could stay in the other party's world a few more times. If there is a group member in the future who she hates and has a lot of evil deeds, maybe she can explore this aspect...

This scene is quite spectacular.

Unexpectedly...

[Bulma: Wow, is this the revolutionary army that Mr. Brand belongs to, fighting that decadent imperial army? I didn't expect it to look so grand... Even in the movie, it's hard to compare. 】

"Pass my order, rest where you are for three days, and then return to the court!"

[Bulma: Is that so...]

Uchiha Hikaru himself has not encountered this problem.

While talking.

On the contrary, it was the Revolutionary Army, which had been developing in a low-key manner in the south for more than ten years. Even if the plan changed and the troops were temporarily assembled, they still gathered more than 100,000 people and attacked the imperial capital with overwhelming force, fighting against the Imperial Army stationed near the imperial capital. A fierce battle ensued.

[Anonymous: ...No. You might have to ask Sesshomaru. 】

"Well, there is nothing we can do about it. After all, they are too weak. In this world, the weak are not qualified to decide their own life and death..."

[Bulma: Okay... Then can Miss Kikyo and I go to your place to have a look? 】

……

No way to try.

Uchiha Hikaru sat on the somersault cloud and watched it all day, during which he also started a group live broadcast, which opened the eyes of Bulma and others.

Uchiha Hikaru was suddenly curious about a question——

[Anonymous: Well...Has the Cat Immortal ever discussed the disadvantages of the breathing method with you? 】

The pool of blood on the ground quickly solidified into ice, like a rose blooming in the snow.

how to say……

Esdeath stood up from the chair and looked in the direction of the imperial capital with a pair of blue eyes: "But, as a strong man, I am very much looking forward to fighting with you now... The one with black hair and red eyes Girl."

By the way.

[Tietouwa: ...Thank you very much, Miss Guang, for helping me find Mr. Cat Immortal as my teacher. Mr. Cat Immortal is really amazing! I can already feel the "qi" it refers to, which is a bit similar to the breathing method taught by Master Lintaki, but more refined and pure. 】

[Buma @无名: By the way, Xiaoguang, Miss Kikyo and I have already met Inuyasha and the others. Now the four soul jade fragments collected by both of us are almost complete, and only Baoguisen is left. The piece in your hand. But the black pearls in Inuyasha's eyes have expired and can no longer take us into the underworld... Do you have any clues? 】

The snow and wind in the sky suddenly intensified, forming a white cyclone surrounding the figure of the blue-haired military queen. The temperature within a kilometer radius seemed to have dropped several degrees in just a short moment, causing all the generals, including the three beast warriors, to shrink their necks unconsciously, feeling like a knife cutting their faces.

I wonder if the Cat Immortal can erase the side effects of this ability...

……

Although the fall of General Bude left the Imperial Forbidden Army leaderless.

However, relying on the solid fortifications of the Millennium Imperial Capital and their unique advantages as defenders, they were able to withstand the first few waves of attacks from the revolutionary army, leaving the battle in a stalemate for a while.

During this time.

Uchiha Hikari once again sneaked into the palace and met with the young emperor.

Then, with the secret order signed by the little emperor, he found Dr. Fashion in a secret stronghold in the northern suburbs of the imperial capital.

Speaking of which...

This guy actually looks a bit like Orochimaru's otherworldly counterpart.

Both are scientific research geeks in the field of biological sciences, and both have moral values ​​that are significantly lower than ordinary people. More importantly, they are both perverted...

However, compared to Orochimaru, who is single and weak, Dr. Fashion's scientific research team is obviously larger. As early as when the previous emperor was in power, he was already quite famous, so he was recruited by the former emperor and became a senior research talent licensed by the empire. He was responsible for the research and production of new weapons and dangerous species, as well as "super soldier transformation" plan.

For example, Seleu in the original plot once asked him to mechanically transform himself, and obtained the weapon system "Judgment of the Ten Kings" named after the Ten Kings of Hell, which once put Ma Yin, who owned the "Pumpkin Turret", into a bitter battle.

And there are actually many such soldiers in the imperial army.

At this moment.

Dr. Fashion seems to think that Uchiha Hikari is not fashionable enough and is a bit indifferent to her.

But... when Uchiha Hikaru showed off the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan and used the "Eight Thousand Spears" to give him a stamp of thought that he was an emperor, Dr.'s fashionable attitude changed 180 degrees. After a change, he began to nod and bow eagerly, and led her to inspect the stronghold.

"...Are these the materials you use for body modification experiments?"

Deep in the stronghold.

Uchiha Hikaru frowned unconsciously as he looked at the row of jars in front of him filled with green nutrient solution, soaked in various human bodies and dangerous organs.

"Yes."

Dr. nodded fashionably, looking a little complacent: "The empire will regularly send some criminals to me for experiments. These are taken from them... My dream is to create something like the Teigu." equipment and perfectly integrate it with the human body, but it has not been done yet.”

"..."

understood.

It seems that Dr. Fashion wants to create "Dragon Tazmi".

Uchiha Hikaru didn't care much about this guy's "dream".

After all, there are a lot of bad people in the Zhanchi World Empire in this era. It can be said that if you drag all the powerful people and throw them into the laboratory, innocent people may be hurt, but if you pick one out of every two people and throw them in, there will definitely be fish that slip through the net. As long as Dr. Fashion controls the quality of the experimental materials and doesn't randomly grab ordinary people to synthesize and transform them, then it won't be a big problem.

after all……

The Frankenstein guy next door is lusting after her body every day. At least Dr.'s fashion isn't that extreme...

"During this period, just stay here and don't go out casually."

"Pack up the things that need to be packed in advance. The empire's rule is about to come to an end, and the master of the imperial capital will also change... At that time, you only need to be loyal to me and find another place to continue your research."

Uchiha Hikaru said to Dr. Fashion.

"Eight Thousand Spears" can make Dr. Fashion recognize her as his master, but it cannot change this guy's character.

In the original timeline, he could have survived to the finale and been recruited by the revolutionary army as a special talent. However, due to greed, he wanted to devour all the "Night Raid" members by himself - plus his own reformed army. As a result, he was counterattacked. If he still seeks death like that this time, Uchiha Hikaru may not be able to keep him alive.

"...Yes, Lord Guang."

present.

Uchiha Hikaru left Dotya and Kosmia here in Dr. Fashion.

Dotya is also an academic who has great research on body modification. She can just communicate with Dr. Fashion... She is not afraid that the two people will get together and cause some unexpected troubles. Anyway, the seal has been set. Now, whether it is to explore their memories or drain their power, it is only a matter of minutes.

After a few words of explanation, Uchiha Hikaru left the stronghold first and used the dance technique to fly high into the sky to overlook the battle situation outside the city.

Just then...

A cold wind blew from the side, causing Uchiha Hikari to shiver subconsciously and narrowed his eyes slightly to look north.

As far as the eye can see.

It's a blur of mountains and endless plains.

"got windy?"

……

"Grenda, Lady Najexitan, something happened!"

Inside the revolutionary army barracks.

The leader of the revolutionary army named Glenn, together with several senior cadres such as Najiexitan, heard the scout's message.

"...Early this morning, we found a large number of cavalry on the plains hundreds of miles away to the north of the imperial capital. There were at least nearly ten thousand people, and they were rushing towards the imperial capital at a rapid march... They might arrive at the latest in Tonight, rush to the vicinity of the imperial capital! If the defenses cannot be prepared in advance, the current siege team may be severely impacted. "

"north……"

"Is that woman back?"

Although not mentioned directly by name.

But several revolutionary army cadres obviously knew who "that woman" was, and they had different expressions for a while.

"No, according to the intelligence we learned earlier, wasn't Esdeath sent to conquer the foreign nations in the north? There was a very powerful leader there. Normally, it would take at least a year to end this war. , how could it be so fast..."

"That's Esdeath."

Najexitan sighed: "For her, all common sense is meant to be broken."

"...If it's really her, I'm afraid she might be in some trouble."

Glenn raised his head and looked at the white-haired woman next to him: "Najexitan, can you invite Miss Uchiha Hikaru to come over to meet you? I want to talk to her in person..."

Najiexitan hesitated for a moment: "I'll give it a try."

……

evening.

On the plains a hundred miles away from the imperial capital.

The cavalry troops returning from the northern border faced off against several partial divisions of the Revolutionary Army stationed here.

The cavalry had absolute suppressive power over the infantry. In just the first round of attacks, a large hole was torn open in the Revolutionary Army's position, causing heavy casualties.

especially……

Among these cavalry units, in addition to ordinary heavy cavalry, there is also a very special kind of ice knight. Not only does it have extremely strong physical fitness, but it is also not afraid of swords and guns. Even if its arm is cut off by a knife, it can quickly recover and go into battle again to fight. , brought quite a shock to the revolutionary army.

"……is her!"

"This ability to control ice and snow...is Esdeath!"

In a look of horror.

Jun Ji, who was wearing a military uniform, rode a tall horse and walked out of a road that had been opened between the cavalry troops. She just waved her hand casually, and a large number of ice blades formed in mid-air, and then ruthlessly swept through the revolutionary army positions, in the blink of an eye. It caused a huge number of casualties.

Blood splattered.

But Esdeath seemed to have little interest in this.

"I'm not here to find you guys...go call that girl with black hair and red eyes to come out!"

"……Who is that?"

The revolutionary general who commanded this partial army was a little confused.

With his identity and status, he was not qualified to know anything about Uchiha Hikari.

Esdeath didn't know that the person she was looking for was not a cadre of the Revolutionary Army. Just when she was planning to use some special means to torture and extort a confession, she seemed to suddenly feel something. She suddenly raised her head and looked at the sky above her head. .

there.

The figure of the black-haired girl slowly descended from the sky. After landing in front of the two armies, she slowly raised her head and opened a pair of magnificent eyes like fire:

"Are you looking for me?"
