The explosion of ice colliding with flesh and blood resounded through the rain. The demon sword that had been fighting Jizo was finally forcibly shaken off by Aoba's strength and fell to the ground!
The immense force exerted by Aoba's arms forced him to slide backward in a disheveled state, his ugly muscles groaning under the strain, carving two deep furrows into the park's stone pavement.
"A demon sword? That's it?"
Aoba slowly approached, and looking at the ugly face so close to her, a hearty and unrestrained laugh appeared on her usually gentle and peaceful face!
"I haven't had enough fun yet!"
Wow——!
Grasping the hilt of Yukino's sword, he swung it in the air, causing a vibration, and simultaneously activated three major skills: Divine Power, Freeze, and Purify!
In an instant!
Snow is a long sword formed from the depths of winter, and the white ribbon on the hilt has been untied, dancing in the wind amidst the torrential rain!
Where the blade pointed, a cold glint suddenly surged!
The rain that had fallen from the sky completely transformed into a blizzard!
Suddenly, the temperature in the entire Hushan Park dropped sharply, and a vast expanse of white covered the previous dirt and sorrow.
Boom!
Aoba stepped forward and released the long sword.
With a flick of his right hand, a crystal-clear kitchen knife reappeared in his hand.
Then the kitchen knife suddenly pierced into Aojizang's shoulder, slicing along the gap in the shoulder blade with swift and clean movements, grabbing Aojizang's wrist, and then suddenly twisting it inward.
"what--!"
A piercing pain struck, and Dizang cried out in agony, spitting out a mouthful of blood. But the emptiness in his shoulder left him completely powerless to break free.
"Actually, I don't like to use surgery at times like this..."
Aoba raised a muscular, ugly arm and casually tossed it out, sending it gliding a great distance across the ice.
"But I am, after all, a chef."
Qingye held up the ice blade, which was completely unstained by blood.
At this moment, he seemed not to be the chef he described, but a surgeon with extremely precise skills and knife work.
An arm can be perfectly removed simply by looking through the gap in the shoulder blade.
Jizo watched helplessly as his limbs were severed and tossed aside by Aoba's extraordinary kitchen knife.
And the demon sword that Qingye knocked down, the Demon King's little hammer, is now craving his blood.
Seeing this, Aoba kicked him directly onto his arm.
The demon sword kills the master.
These are some of his words.
Now it has become a reality. In order to escape, Jizo used the demon sword, and the flesh and blood that grew on his body were once again absorbed by the demon sword.
Rumble!
The snowflakes in the sky were getting bigger and bigger, and there were faint flashes of lightning in the distance.
"By the way, I don't know your name yet?"
Aoba lifted Jizo up by the neck as if he were a chicken or duck to be slaughtered, her gaze meeting his with a hint of doubt:
"I say, since you know Otome, you must be a yokai from old Kyoto, right? What are you doing in the 20th ward? Is it for that Shikon Jewel shard?"
"Or is there another purpose?"
His actions terrified the monsters and crowds watching from the sidelines.
Turning monsters into human pigs...
This kind of punishment is the most inhumane at any time.
At this moment, in their eyes, Aoba's image seemed to be even more powerful than the most terrifying and cruel monster in the world.
Behind Aoba, Yukino Fuyuki, who had transformed back into human form, covered Reiko's eyes, saying, "Children shouldn't look like that."
"I'm not a child anymore, Snow Woman!"
"That won't work either, because watching it will give me nightmares anyway."
Yukino gazed at Aoba with hazy eyes, her heart-chilling gaze seeming to melt away.
Feng Hua, who was evacuating the rescue crowd, noticed the situation and frowned slightly before returning to the rescue efforts.
To her, Aoba's actions might have been a bit extreme, but as a member of the punitive squad, she had seen far more horrific tragedies than this.
As for Raven Feather, his icy eyes were practically contorted with rage.
Powerful swordsmanship, ruthless methods...
The heart that had been completely chilled by Aoba's heartless rejection slowly began to beat again.
Sure enough, he and I are the same kind of people!
Aoba was unaware of the burning gaze from Crow Feather, but Otome beside him seemed to have sensed it all along.
She lifted her foot lightly, stepping on the snowflakes to stand beside Qingye, blocking his burning gaze.
Then, looking thoughtfully at Ao Dizang, she said, "I think I vaguely remember..."
"Pfft... Hahaha!" Yamabuki Otome's words instantly made Aojizo burst into laughter, the blood that had just come out of his mouth was frozen into ice crystals, "Now you can remember, oh..."
"That sword is called the Demon King's Hammer, right? It's a demon sword that was once sealed away by Abe no Seimei. If that's the case..."
The maiden used her fox tail to curl up the demon sword and examined it carefully, then looked at the shattered Toyama Park. "Did you come here specifically to break the curse and retrieve the demon sword?"
More than four hundred years ago, Toyama Park was almost deserted, and even Hagoromo Gitsune had no recollection of it.
Only the information that Abe no Seimei gave to Hagoromo Gitsune before his death gave her some understanding of this place.
"For a demon sword..." Upon hearing this, a hint of sadness appeared in Qingye's eyes. "He deserves to die."
die?
"Hahaha, kid, you really think you can kill me?!"
Dizang threw his head back and laughed, his single eye filled with contempt. For a demon who had returned from hell, death was never a punishment to be feared.
Besides, he was a monster who had already died once... Death was more like going home for him.
So at this moment, this monster, who usually portrays himself as timid and cowardly, transforms into a brave warrior ready to die before he dies.
"Die? Not so easy."
As Yamabuki Otome watched Aojizo whisper, countless steel cables and coils emerged from the ground and bound Aojizo together.
He then turned to look at Aoba, a smile playing on his lips, "The rest is up to you, Commander-in-Chief."
Whether to kill or spare him is entirely up to Aoba.
Meanwhile, the monsters and the crowd in the distance, whether good or bad, watched this scene.
Everyone was stunned and speechless.
It is important to know that Jizo, with his overwhelming aura, lured the three great demons to Toyama Park and then broke the seal to control countless humans and demons.
So far, she's been held in Aoba's hand like a chick and tied up by Otome, all within less than half an hour.
Less than half an hour...
In such a short time, he defeated a powerful demon with a power level of at least S-rank?!
Is this still Anting District?!
"call."
Aoba remained expressionless, releasing his grip and allowing the steel cable to pierce and bind Aojizo's body.
The vitality of monsters is not as strong as imagined, but it is not as fragile as imagined either.
Even though only his head could still move at this moment, Dizang wouldn't die so easily. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
After this battle, Aoba gained a deep understanding of his own strength.
Just like how he mastered the Jizo-style sword technique in such a short time, in terms of strength, speed, physique, and even abilities...
Each one is above Ksitigarbha, yet not by much.
But all things considered, in actual combat, it's a complete and utter crushing defeat!
This is enough for him to turn his advantage into a winning position in a short period of time and completely defeat his opponent!
"Heh, you really think you've got this in the bag?"
Suddenly, blood gushed from Dizang's mouth, revealing his blood-red gums.
Aoba's heart skipped a beat, but then calmed down.
"So you have a backup plan?"
"if not?"
The words fell.
"Roar!!!"
"Ouch!!!"
An angry roar suddenly came from afar.
However, the two demons, who were the leaders of the demons, seemed to have some kind of curse mark in their eyes and had completely lost their minds.
The demonic power they unleashed attacked Aoba, who was standing in the park, from different angles.
Aoba glanced at him sideways but ignored him.
Just like when he first appeared.
Behind him, several figures darted out simultaneously, ready to block the sword light.
"Roar--!"
"Hey, it's a dereliction of duty for a subordinate to let you disturb the Commander-in-Chief."
