Foreigner's Journey

"...That's right."

"I can understand your determination and hard work to travel all over the country to find the variant sword of Shikizaki Ji, but it is impossible for [Thousand Swords] to be handed over to you or the shogunate."

"how do I say this?"

"Because Santu Shrine has dedicated 【Thousand Swords】to the great Susanoo God."

When mentioning Susano, the cold voice of the Tsuruga camouflage obviously brought a fanatical atmosphere:

"The deity accepted our tribute, and in return the deity blessed us. Want a thousand swords? Sorry, there are no 'unowned' thousand swords in this world. The Twelve of Shijizaki Jiji The variant knife should be changed to 'Eleven' in the future."

"But isn't what you're holding a thousand knives?" Qi Hua said suddenly.

As a 'swordsman', as a 'knife', he could feel that the red sheathed long knife in the Tsuruga camouflage pattern on the floor beside him gave him a feeling similar to 'absolute sword' and 'zhanto'.

"yes?"

Tsuruga's camouflage lengthened his voice, gently picked up the red sheathed long knife, stroked the scabbard while looking at Qihua, the red eye shadows at the corners of the eyes on both sides were very evil at this time:

"Would you like to take another look?"

The feeling has changed!It is no longer the feeling between the demon sword and the magic blade of the Shikizaki Jiji variant knife. At this time, the knife in the hands of Tsuruga camouflage becomes majestic and awe-inspiring!

This is by no means a sword that can be forged in the world, but a weapon made by the gods.It's for real——

【God-made weapon】!

###Chapter 15 God Sword Showdown###

The Outlander's Journey The Outlander and the Hunter x Hunter Chapter 15 Shenqian swordsmanship duel Jiuer's task of collecting swords has failed at this moment.

Because as one of the twelve Shikizaki Jiki's completed variant knives, [Thousand Swordsman] has changed hands.No, it cannot be said to have changed hands, because the change of hands may still take it back from the new sword owner. The current Qiandao Xiao no longer belongs to the mortal world. It was collected and recast by the gods and became a [divine weapon].

Jiu'er suddenly became sluggish, her ambition, her plan, her patience and persistence, all became meaningless at this moment.

Putting the thousand swords back into the scabbard and putting it by his side, Tsuruga Camouflage picked up a bottle of good wine and drank it on his own.

After being stunned for a long time, Jiu'er finally came back to his senses, and asked with difficulty: "Master Camouflage, is there really a [God]?"

Jiu'er has never believed in gods or respected Buddhas, if Gods and Buddhas really exist, why would the world suffer so much?God, shouldn’t he be gentle and merciful to save people?

Tsuruga camouflage put down the wine bowl, and his eyes became serious: "Pay attention to your words, this is the Santu Shrine, and sitting in front of you is the black priestess under the command of the god, the greatness of the god is beyond your beak, cunning strategist! No, I should call you [Rong She Ji]."

As soon as he heard the Tsuruga camouflage reveal his true identity, Jiu'er's face suddenly turned pale.

She has been hiding her name and using all means to climb up in the strict shogunate, and only then did she sit in the prominent position she is now.Once the shogunate knows that her real identity is the biological daughter of Hida Takahiwai, the mastermind of the Oshu chaos 20 years ago, what awaits her will be merciless torture.

"This, is this also what God told you?"

Jiu'er didn't believe that a shrine maiden who didn't leave her house could inquire about secrets that even the shogunate didn't know.

The hand holding the wine bowl in the Tsuruga camouflage froze for a moment, then laughed: "Exactly."

Jiu'er took a deep breath, calmed down, and then said:

"If what you said is true, then the shogunate's sword acquisition plan will die. After all, taking a sword from the hands of a god, no matter what kind of fool..."

"Yes."

"Ah... eh?"

Tsuruga camouflage said word by word with a smile:

"The god has already made a will, and the [knife] cast by the god can be given to you."

"Really, really?" Not only Jiu Er, but even Qi Hua became excited.God made weapons!Although Qihua is a swordsman [Xu Dao Liu] who does not use knives, if she can observe carefully or hold the sword made by the gods in person, it will definitely make a qualitative leap in her Xu Dao Liu swordsmanship!

And Jiu'er was even more excited, with the God-made weapon, even if he didn't need to collect all twelve Shikizaki Ji variant knives, he might be able to fulfill his ambition!

But seeing the sly smile of Tsuruga camouflage, Jiuer suddenly became vigilant——

"There must be conditions, right?"

"Of course there are conditions."

Tsuruga camouflage laughed wildly:

"How can the God's sword cast by the gods be given to mortals so easily? If you want to get a gift from the gods, you must first go through trials. This is a common part in fairy tales."

What a wicked god, I always feel that he is purely using the weapons made by gods as bait to lure mortals to run around for it.

Now that the matter has come to an end, Jiu'er is relieved, and talks to Tsuruga again in a calm manner: "Yes, the seventh-generation head of Xu Dao Liu and I have already awakened, please make it clear."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but her certain sense of sight is becoming more and more obvious. As a god, she has such a bad taste, and she always feels that she has communicated with this kind of person somewhere...

Speaking of God, Tsuruga's face turned serious.She put down the wine cup and straightened her posture, looked at Qihua and Jiu'er, and said clearly:

"God wants the most outstanding heroes in the world to present the most wonderful performances for Him."

"Performance?"

"For the gods, it is a performance, but for you, it will be a battle of life and death and glory. The admission ticket is the completed variant sword of Shikizaki Jiki that you hold."

Tsuruga raised his finger, and clicked on the package beside Qihua, where Jiu Er and Qihua's hard-earned collection of "Juedao" and "Zhandao" were stored:

"Heroes of the present age gather together and wager the Shikizaki Jiji Sword they hold, and fight in front of the gods to decide the final winner, which means——

[Swordsmanship duel in front of the gods]! "

Swordsmanship showdown before the gods!The name alone is enough to make Qihua and Jiuer feel excited and trembling, even goosebumps appear on the arms and the back of the neck.

Fighting in front of the gods, does this mean that the great god Susanoo will come to the scene at that time and show his divine appearance! ?

If you can win the favor of the gods, you may even use the great power of the gods to achieve your long-cherished wish.

Thinking of this, Jiu Er subconsciously pursed his parched lips,

"...We will participate!"

Now that I am unable to complete the task of collecting swords, I am very likely to be abandoned by the shogunate and even become a plaything of General Jiaming. Even if Qihua protects me and temporarily escapes the shogunate army, I will always hide in the east for the rest of my life. XZ is in a state of panic.Only by participating with Qihua and winning the final victory in this unprecedented competition of the world's number one swordsman can the situation be reversed.

But Qihua has no intention of objecting at all, it might be better to say that Jiuer's idea is exactly what he wants.Although I haven't said it clearly, but my father and sister really want Xu Daoliu to stand at the top of swordsmen again, right?

After 20 years of leaving as a sinner, Xu Dao Ryu will regain the highest point of all swordsmen in his own hands under the eyes of the gods, and become the real "Japan's strongest"!

After the two made up their minds, Jiu'er was excited, and suddenly remembered something, and quickly asked Camouflage, "Master Camouflage, I still have something to ask you."

Camouflage snorted irresistibly, and picked up the wine glass again.Her meaning is very clear, you can ask, but I can't guarantee that I will answer them one by one.

"You said just now that you want to recruit the strongest heroes in the world, and you also need to have the Shikizaki Norihito as a ticket, so are there other candidates besides us now?"

"This is natural, not counting the Zhan Dao, Jue Dao and Qian Dao, but there are still nine Shikizaki Ji variant swords scattered all over the place. They are held by various strong men, and the swordsmanship showdown before the gods is for these strong men Will it be the best stage?"

Tsuruga smiles like a fox.

Jiu'er was a little puzzled: "Maybe some swordsmen don't pursue fame, but only focus on the variant sword they hold? After all, not every Shikizaki Ji Ji variant knife can be perfectly adapted to any user. Yes, and besides..."

"You mean [knife poison]?"

Tsuruga's camouflage fingers gently stroked the handle of the red sheathed long knife beside him, and the voice became distant and near:

"Why do you think the gods will use the Shikizaki Ji variant knife as a ticket for the competition?"

Seeing the movement of Tsuruga's camouflage hand, Jiu'er looked at her in disbelief: "Could it be..."

"Yes... the final victor will receive an incomparable reward—"

The voice of camouflage echoed in the hall:

"Recast a Shikizaki Ji variant knife into a [divine weapon]!"

Let your treasured sword go one step further to become a god-made weapon such as "Amazono Cloud Sword", "Ten-grip Sword", and "Amazu Spear" that are enough to be included in the myth. This will be absolutely impossible for all Shikizaki Ji variant sword holders The ultimate temptation to resist.

###Chapter 16 Mountains and rain are about to come###

As far as Jiuer knows, there are seven holders of Shikizaki Ji Nori's Variant Knife——

[Extreme Sword·铇], the emphasis is on 'sturdyness', it was taken from the betrayer Mabat and stored on my side.

[Cutting knife blunt], the emphasis is on 'sharpness', and it is stored at my side after conquest from Inaba Castle Lord Yulian Silver Pavilion.

[Thousand Swords·Zuo], with the emphasis on 'quantity', is now recast by the gods as a divine weapon and handed over to the Tsuruga camouflage.

[Thin Knife · Needle], the emphasis is on 'frivolity', which is held by Kai Baibing, the strongest fallen sword sage in Japan.

【Thieves Sword·Armor】, the emphasis is on 'defense', and it is currently held by Xiao Cang, the master of Duanyin Port and the head of the Satsuma Armor Pirates.

[Double Knife Hammer], the focus is on 'weight', and it is kept by the Dongkong clan who live in seclusion in the designated area of ​​​​the first-level disaster, 'Yaoshan'.

[Evil Knife·鐚], the focus is on 'activity', and it is now being enshrined in the designated area of ​​the first-level disaster, the 'Death Mountain', which is strictly guarded by the Death Spirit Mountain Guardian Team.

If what the camouflage says is true, then the old-fashioned Xibaibing who is obsessed with the name of a swordsman will definitely come to the meeting.

The owner of the thief sword, Xiao Canbi, calls himself "Kyushu Man". It is rumored that he is a troublesome man who likes competitive fighting and has a very flamboyant personality. Presumably he will also participate in the competition.

As for the other holders of Shikizaki Ji's variant sword... Jiu'er is really not sure if they will come or not.

If there is a dead-headed mind who just wants to live in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests with the sword of Shikizaki Jiji, and see no outsiders, wouldn't it lead to the imperfection of this unprecedented swordsmanship duel?

"You have a good point, Crazy Tactician."

As if seeing through Jiu Er's thoughts, Tsuruga smiled:

"So, the god said that you can give the shogunate a quota of Shikizaki Jiji swords from you. As a reward, the shogunate must do its best to promote this [Shenqian Swordsmanship Showdown] throughout the country."

Jiu'er nodded: "I see, General Jia Ming must readily agree."

It's more than just 'agreeing', with Jiu'er's understanding of that old guy, I'm afraid that even if he doesn't give the shogunate a place, the shogunate will try his best to get it from other people, either by deceiving or intimidating or stealing it, Jia Ming The general will never give up this great opportunity to show his face before God and even make a wish for the blessing of eternal life.

"That, the Lord of the Camouflage Palace?" Qihua suddenly said.

"Please speak, Xu Dao Liu."

"If it's this swordsmanship duel in front of the gods, will you participate? I heard Jiuer say that you are the descendant of the ancient school of swordsmanship 'Thousand Swords Style', right?"

"Yes, God has generously allowed me to participate in this unprecedented event as a swordsman."

Speaking of the god Susanoo, Tsuruga camouflage's face is full of longing and fanaticism:

"This [Shen Qiandao] is given by the gods for me to use for the time being. Of course, I can't exert the effect of [Shen Qiandao] as a god-made weapon. Please treat it as an ordinary Qiandao. "

"[God Thousand Swords]... the effect of God-made weapons?"

Jiu Er keenly grasped the hidden meaning in the camouflage words, leaned forward and asked:
