Foreigner's Journey

Instead, they grabbed their necks one by one and strangled them to death.

Why?Why use such a primitive and cruel way?Probably because of 【Unforgivable】.

She heard about the origin of the Santu Shrine, and knew that it was a sanatorium for weak women, so she questioned in her heart—why, she didn't come to save me!

Isn't he called a god because he saved even hopeless people like himself?

Tsuruga Camouflage was the last to be killed. On the dark brown floor in the main hall, she knelt on Camouflage's body and pinched Camouflage's neck.

Camouflage's lips moved, and she thought the other party was begging for mercy.

【please forgive……】

Boring, I'm already tired of hearing this kind of begging for mercy.

[Forgive me... for failing to save you. 】

She was stunned.

[But, please...please forgive those girls...they have done nothing wrong. 】

These are the last words of Tsuruga camouflage.

The hall fell into deathly silence. After a long time, she returned to the bandit base and killed 43 of her companions.

Then I brought [Thousand Swords · Shovel] as [Tsuruga Camouflage] and came to the Santu Shrine.

This is the birth of Armed Shrine Santu Shrine, and this is the birth of the new Tsuruga camouflage.

At this moment, there were dark clouds outside the main hall, and the wind was blowing the fallen leaves. The two stood on the square, facing each other like this.

God will not come to save himself, nor will he come to save them, this Tsuruga camouflage has long understood.Now, Tsuruga camouflage only believes in [self-help].

Qian Dao·铩 cannot be let out no matter what. Not only can it use the poison of the sword as medicine to keep the hearts of those girls from collapsing, but more importantly, it is also the basis for self-protection of Santu Shrine, an armed shrine.

Once the black witches lose the force protection of Shikisaki Ji's variant sword, they will be unable to resist the capture of the shogunate.

Wolf, you said you have a way to solve this problem, so show me.

Standing on the stone floor of the square, the one-armed ronin raised his head and closed his eyes to feel the water vapor mixed in the wind, which was a sign of an impending storm.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and looked at the Tsuruga camouflage opposite him, his empty cuffs fluttering in the wind:

"Camouflage Palace Master, the sword poison is just drinking poison to quench thirst. Before they are not swordsmen and have not been poisoned too much, it is for their benefit to remove the thousand sword poison."

"That's all? Is this your solution?"

Tsuruga camouflage doesn't have any weapons in her hands, but her aura is getting higher and higher.

If it's just this ridiculous 'solution', then the Tsuruga camouflage will have to choose another path—defeat all incoming enemies with the help of the Thousand Swordsmanship and Thousand Swordsmanship, and protect the Santu Shrine and the Thousand Blacks with their own power. Miko.

"Without Thousand Swords, the shogunate has no reason to ask you for swords."

Heather slung the tattered long knife with its sheath around her left waist, and gently stroked it with the fingers of her left hand on the hilt:

"A thousand knives are the cause of everything, don't you understand?"

The Tsuruga camouflage sneered: "Without Qiandao, how do you let these black witches face the shogunate's continuous arrest army?"

"So, my solution is to let the shogunate that ruled Japan fall apart, so naturally I won't have time to take care of you."

Heather said the shocking remarks lightly.

"Falling apart... Heh, hahaha!"

Tsuruga Camouflage laughed angrily: "Sekiro, you are just a whimsical guy."

"What? Is it difficult?" Heather tilted her head.

"Do you know how many troops there are in the shogunate? Yes, 150 years ago, Yu Lian Kinkaku did kill thousands of people with his 'Zan Dao·Bu'. But the army of the shogunate is more than [-]! Just the human sea tactics can consume you alive, how many subordinates do you have to command?"

Tsuruga camouflage slowly shook his head:

"Even Hida Takabi and others were defeated by the shogunate's army, you... are too arrogant."

The wind was blowing more and more quickly, and the dark clouds above formed a vortex, and it seemed that a severe heavy rainstorm was coming.

Heather didn't wear a hat, letting her slightly curly black hair dance like flames in the wind.He rubbed his stubble-covered chin, smiled and said:

"If you have the ability, don't you know if you come here and try it yourself?"

He raised his chin in the direction of the foot of the Tsuruga camouflage: "How about using the original [Thousand Knife]?"

"what……"

Tsuruga camouflage looked surprised.

There is indeed a knife buried under her feet, and it is the one forged by [Thousand Knife·铩] at first.

Thousand Swordsman, one of the twelve complete variant swords forged featuring 【Overwhelming Quantity】.Take it as you use it, replace it when it is worn out, there is no quantity limit, and there are endless spare parts.

For swordsmen, even knives forged by the same swordsmith will have a completely different feel. Once the knife is changed, there will be a long or short period of weakness due to unfamiliarity.But Qian Dao Xiao would not have such concerns at all.

Each handle is identical regardless of sharpness, weight, length and thickness.

However, even if there are a thousand [Thousand Swords] that are exactly the same and have the same feel, there will be a primordial body, which is the prototype of all Thousand Swords.

It was the one buried under the Tsuruga camouflage.

"Why do you know..." Tsuruga camouflage looked at the opposite side in disbelief, how did he know there was a knife here?And I also know that this is the original type of Qiandao Xiao.

"Simple, because it told me itself."

Heather smiled and pointed to the camouflaged feet:

"I told some idiot once, and I'll tell you again - a knife doesn't choose who it kills, but it chooses who it kills. Well, I'll give you time to dig it out."

With her fingers resting on the hilt of her waist, Heather smiled brightly:

"Then, I will show you what [the power to destroy the shogunate] is."

###Chapter 8 Thousand Swords Flow###

, the journey of a foreigner

The wind is getting faster and faster, and the vortex formed by the black clouds above is constantly circling.

Tsuruga camouflage looked at the man not far away, and his breathing gradually calmed down.

She squatted down, lifted the stone slab, dug up the soil, and a knife gradually revealed her real body.

The blade is two feet and four inches long, the back of the sword is made of three pickaxes, the blade pattern is small and chaotic, and the scabbard is bright red.

A sword with the same appearance as the thousand swords carried by the black witch maidens, but its strong sense of presence is unmatched by other thousand swords——

This is the original prototype of [Thousand Knife·铩], the most special one.

As the Tsuruga camouflage drew its long sword, black witches appeared around silently, more and more.They all carried identical Qiandao on their waists, quietly approaching the battlefield where Heather and Tsuruga were camouflaged.

Clang!A black witch at the front pulled out the perfectly crafted thousand sword from her waist, inserted the blade downward into the stone slab under her feet, then threw the scabbard aside, turned and left without looking back.

Immediately afterwards, the second black witch also pulled out the thousand knives from her waist, and inserted them upside down not far from the first thousand knives.

Then the third, the fourth...

More and more black witches place thousands of swords on this wide battlefield in various postures.Inserted upside down on the slate floor, tied to the trunk, inserted obliquely outside the wooden wall of the house, hung upside down under the eaves, hung on the torii gate, placed on the roof... The battlefield is occupied by thousands of swords.

Heather just stroked the handle of the knife at her waist lightly with her fingers, not intending to stop the black witches in the slightest.

In the end, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand knives were arranged on the battlefield, which seemed to be disorganized, but Heather could tell that this was in line with the Tsuruga camouflage's usual habits of swinging knives and moving, so that she could use the thousand knives anytime, anywhere Slashed.

Heather laughed: "So, it's not limited to taking the opponent's knives for your own use, but taking all the knives on the battlefield into your own hands. This is called Qiandao Style."

"[Terrain Effect·Thousand Swords Tour]."

The Tsuruga camouflage is holding the original thousand swords, pointing at Heather from a distance, with black hair fluttering in the strong wind:

"If it is predicted that there will be a large number of invading enemies, I will ask the witches to prepare for the arrangement two to three days in advance."

"Aren't you going to hide? This tactic requires you to keep sneaking from the hiding place, right?"

"Your Excellency did not interrupt the arrangement of the Tour of Thousand Swords. At least I can choose to fight you as an upright swordsman at the moment of the battle. Of course, I can't guarantee it afterwards."

Tsuruga camouflage also laughed:

"This Izumo mountain has become the territory of the patrol of the thousand swords. Sekiro, surrender is allowed in the rules. I hope that useless killing can be avoided."

"This sentence is for you."

Heather moved her shoulder with one hand, twisted her neck and made a dull creaking sound: "Can we start?"

Huh... Tsuruga Camouflage closed his eyes and clenched the long knife in his hand, and exhaled slowly:

"Izumo Oyama Sanzu Shrine..."

She snapped her eyes open—

"Thousand swords style No. 12 master, Tsuruga camouflage!"

"No family, no sect, no restraint..."

Heather held the handle of the knife on her left waist with her left hand, and said with a smile:

"Outlander, Heather."

The moment the voice fell, the figures of the two disappeared from the same place at the same time.

Heather, who was rushing forward, tilted her head slightly, avoiding the long knife thrown towards her head by the Tsuruga camouflage.Qiandao spun at high speed and flew past Heather's ear, making a piercing whistling sound.

"One knife, one character cut!"

Suddenly, a bright knife light shone beside Heather, and the Tsuruga camouflage came to Heather's right side at an extremely fast speed, aiming at his missing right arm, which was full of loopholes, and grabbed a thousand swords and pointed at him. It cuts off.

Clang!I didn't see Heather making any movements, but the left hand holding the handle of the knife on her waist was suddenly blurred for a moment, and the light of the knife that was slashing towards her was smashed to pieces along with the blade!

Not bounced, but smashed.

Qiandao·铩, the number is reduced by one.

It's Juhe Zhan! ?I couldn't even see the movement of the knife, and swung the slash at a speed beyond the limit of human vision, and used that tattered knife to destroy one of Shikizaki Jiki's most peak twelve completed variant knives! ?

No time to continue to be amazed, Tsuruga camouflage slid to the side with the momentum, grabbed two thousand knives and slashed towards Heather's back.

"Two knives, ten character cuts!"

This time, she only felt the huge force of Peiran coming from her hands, and the two thousand knives were smashed to pieces by the invisible Iai chop, and even the Tsuruga camouflage was shaken and flew backward by the strong impact.
