Chapter 746: Broken Faith, Interesting Encounter
“Don’t even think about escaping!”
Seeing Yang Hui leave, the four masked men pulled out the samurai swords hidden under their coats and chased after him. But he was blocked by Todo Kaishiro.
"Your Highness has handed you over to me, and I will not let you pass."
A knight's sword is completely invincible when facing four katana swords, and it can be used with ease.
"Sure enough! Who are you!?" After being repelled, an assassin took off his mask regardless of hiding his identity and questioned Todo Kaishiro.
"..."
"Although you are using Bunitalia's knight sword, the swordsmanship used is indeed Todo style. At least it is a teacher-level master, and it can be easily dealt with. Among the four of us, there is only one person who can do it, Todo-ryu, right? Todo!"
"...Sigh" Kaishiro Todo sighed until the other party saw through his identity. , took off his mask outside the Governor's Mansion for the first time. He also understood that this was the reason why Yang Hui led people into a deserted alley and gave him four people to deal with alone. "Long time no see, Xianbo, Bubu, Asahina, Chiba."
"It's really you! Mr. Todo!" Seeing Todo Kaishiro's face, the other three couldn't care less and took off their masks excitedly.
"It's me. It's good to see that you are still alive."
"But why are you... I understand! You are an undercover! You have been lurking next to [Nightmare]!" Asahina likes to use her brain. I imagined that Toudo Keishirou endured the humiliation and bore the stigma of [traitor], lurking beside Yang Hui, and worked hard for the revival of Sakura Country. Then their appearance made Toudo Keishirou suspicious of Yang Hui, and his face was full of suspicion. of pain.
"Is that so? Mr. Toudo? Are you the undercover agent next to [Nightmare]!?" Bubu and Chiba were also convinced by Asahina's ideas, otherwise they would really not be able to understand that [Nightmare] The samurai of the era would betray his country.
Only the eldest Senba was not excited. He also hoped that Asahina's guess was correct, but... Toudo Kaishiro's
"Sorry, I disappoint you." Toudo Kaishiro He shook his head and said firmly to the four of them, "I am loyal to His Highness Yang Hui with my own will."
"Master Toudo! How could...how could you..." After hearing the truth told by Toudo Keishirou himself, Bubu, Chiba and Asahina who believed in Toudo Keishirou were severely hit. They were unwilling to believe it no matter what. It's true.
"Toudo-sama, why!? Where have you gone!?" Asahina, who did not want to believe the truth, was heartbroken. With his faith broken, he rushed over with a knife and slashed at Kaishiro Toudo. .
But Toudo Keishirou can be regarded as half of Asahina's master. Even if Asahina uses Toudou style to the extreme in a calm state, he is still no match for Toudo Keishirou, let alone that he has lost his mind and moves. What a mess.
Blocked Asahina's slash, turned sideways to make Asahina lose his balance, and hit Asahina on the back of the neck with his sword with his backhand, causing him to lose the ability to move.
"Asahina!" Seeing this, Chiba rushed forward again, but this time Bubu and Senbo caught her in time and stopped her from being impulsive.
"Toudou..." Senba looked at Toudou Keishiro with a complicated face. He was different from the other three. He was older and knew more about the warmth and warmth of human relationships. He could also guess the reason why Toudou Keishiro betrayed Sakura Country and loyal to Yang Hui. Under ordinary circumstances Next, he could understand Toudo Kaishiro's choice, but at this time...
Once again standing in front of them as an enemy, Senbo could only lament that things were unpredictable.
"Let's go together." Seeing that the three of them stopped moving, Todo Kaishiro raised his knight sword again, "Beat me, and then challenge His Highness Yang Hui, or be defeated by me."
< br>"There is a third option, Bubu, take Chiba and go first." Senba pushed the two of them back. He knew very well that it was impossible for the three of them to defeat Toudo Kaishiro, and Asahina had been caught. Okay, the three of them can't all be folded here.
"Xianbo! You..."
"Give up, Senba." Todo Kaishiro also saw Senba's plan, laughed and shook his head, "Why do you think His Highness chose to walk into the alley? You have no chance to do anything on the street."
< br>"What did you say!?" The three of them were shocked, but soon realized that something was wrong. Yang Hui had been shopping leisurely, why did he suddenly walk into a deserted alley?
"Is this a trap!?"
"Yes and no." Kaishiro Toudo smiled, "His Highness does intend to lure you out, but it is also to prevent you from jumping over the wall in the street. Go ahead and hurt innocent civilians."
"Huh, [Nightmare] still cares about the lives of civilians?" Bubu roared. In his opinion, everyone in Bunitaria. They are arrogant and don't care about the safety of the people of Sakura Country. To them, they are just a group of pigs to be slaughtered, or slaves for mining.
"You don't understand His Highness at all." Todo Kaishiro shook his head. He should have had the same idea as Bubu, right?
But after getting to know each other for so long, Todo Kaishiro knows that Yang Hui is a very gentle person. Yang Hui's cruelty will only treat his enemies, and even treat the enemies he recognizes with corresponding kindness and respect. He will try his best to show his best side to the people around him, and he will do his best to protect the civilians under his rule.
“The duty of a soldier is to obey orders, but the duty of a soldier is to protect the civilians behind him. When duty and mission conflict, what will you choose?”
This is what Yang Hui once asked. [Nightmare] Todo Kaishiro is very confused about the question of everyone in the Knights. He doesn’t know how to answer this question. Either one is right, but neither one is wrong.
Other Bunitalia, including Jeremiah, Veretta and Joan Luo, all chose their vocation and gave up their mission, and then were scolded by Yang Hui.
Todo Kaishiro asked Yang Hui on the spot, which one would he choose?
Yang Hui answered everyone without hesitation: "I will choose to kill the idiot who made me give up my mission."
Obviously, Yang Hui chose the latter and told everyone present at the same time : "If one day, I ask you to abandon your mission, then each of you has the right, even the obligation, to kill me, and then stick to your mission." Yang Hui has never been a formalist, he has always said the same thing. If a person can say something like this, it means that he can really do it, and he will also give the people present the right to do it.
"Fudo! You..."
"It's useless to talk more. Your retreat has been blocked. You have only two choices now. Kill me and then challenge His Highness, or be defeated by me." Kaishiro Toudo didn't intend to keep Yang Hui waiting for a long time, and pointed with his knight sword. Said Xianbo, Bu Bu and Qianye.
"..." The three of them looked at each other, nodded, and then took a stance with firm eyes, ready to launch an attack.
“Very good, come on!”
“Up!”
……
Yang Hui stood at the exit on the other side of the alley, leaning against the wall and playing a mini-game on the terminal. Next to him, there was a dirty young man sitting on the ground, covering his wrists, looking in pain.
"Your Highness." Kaishiro Todo, who put on his mask again, walked out of the dark alley.
"A little embarrassed." Yang Hui glanced at Todo Kaishiro and said jokingly. Although he was not injured, there were a few rips in his clothes, and the skirt was soaked with sweat. It looked like it should be It was a hard fight.
"Not good at academics."
"No, on the contrary, it means that the level of your fellow disciples is not low." Yang Hui knows the level of Toudo Kaishiro, and his martial arts strength is definitely one of the pinnacles in the world. , what makes him embarrassed is not that he is incompetent, but that the other party also has real abilities.
"Your Highness is so flattering." The face under the mask curled up. Didn't Yang Hui's words just recognize the strength of Senbo, Bubu, Asahina and Chiba? In this way, his idea will be easier to realize, "Your Highness, I think they are qualified to fight for it, so I didn't kill them, but captured them."
"That's your trophy, Just make your own decision," Yang Hui said casually.
“Yes, yourhighness.”
“Well, let’s go, take him with you.”
“Your Highness, who is he?” Todo Kaishiro looked puzzled Judging from the age of the boy on the ground... he is about the same age as Yang Hui, right? Her red hair is a bit conspicuous, so she wears a hat.
"He? A young angry young man, my trophy." Yang Hui raised the corner of his mouth.
......
The time went back to shortly after Yang Hui and Todo Kaishiro separated. Yang Hui didn't go far when he saw a boy about his own age walking towards him with his hands in his pockets and the brim of his hat. He held it down so low that people couldn't see his face clearly.
"Huh? Interesting." Yang Hui was stunned for a moment at first, because he had only felt the sight of four people before, which meant that the person in front of him had escaped Yang Hui's perception.
What? Just a passerby?
Are you kidding me? Would a mere passerby meet Yang Hui by chance on this occasion? And he deliberately lowered the brim of his hat to cover his face. The hand in his pocket was obviously holding something, and he deliberately walked towards Yang Hui. Could he be a passerby?
Sure enough, the moment Yang Hui passed by him, the young man took out the folding fruit knife in his hand and stabbed Yang Hui in the back of the heart.
But Yang Hui's hand popped out like lightning, turned around and grabbed the boy's wrist, twisted it gently, and with a "click~" the wrist was dislocated. With a scream, the hand in his hand The knife also fell to the ground.
At the same time, Yang Hui also saw clearly what this person looked like.
"It's actually him? Interesting, really interesting!" Yang Hui thought as he pushed the boy with a dislocated wrist aside. From his actions just now, it can be seen that he is not a professional killer, he is too amateur. Not a threat at all.
"The job of a killer is not that simple. First of all, you have to choose a qualified weapon." Yang Hui picked up the folding fruit knife on the ground, squatted in front of the young man and said to him, "This kind of knife can stab people, and it is easy to cut if you hold it upright." If you touch the thumb and index finger, you will cut your little finger if you hold it underhand. I personally recommend a butterfly knife or a spring knife. If it doesn't work, a utility knife is better than this."
"Cut, don't be pretentious, [Nightmare], kill. Leave me alone, I won't say anything." The young man turned his head and said to Yang Hui forcefully, but Yang Hui noticed the fear in his eyes.
"What's your name?" Yang Hui didn't care, but asked his name.
“…”
“Don’t underestimate the intelligence network in my hand. It’s not difficult to check your background, so if you don’t tell me now, don’t regret it then.”< br>
"..." The young man's eyes flickered, and after a few minutes of hesitation, he still chose to speak, "Naoto Benigetsu."
