Chapter 295 Oda Nobunaga's Ambition

"is it?"

"The young master of the Sea Kingdom has returned and is at war with the Nine-Tailed Fox forces."

Standing on the ruins of the broken city wall, Jun Kishida held a brick-like walkie-talkie and responded after listening to the words from Director Takeya.

"We should be done here soon."

Opposite him, Shibata Katsuie, holding a long spear, stood firm, but through the huge hole in his chest, one could see the castle tower behind him!
There are also differences between the Ghost-level monsters.

Kishida Jun, who gained power upon his arrival in the supernatural realm and has been fighting ever since, possesses a solid and unwavering strength that is in no way inferior to any Demon-level opponent.

Of course, the case of Yura's 'ice magic' being a hard counter to water magic cannot be included.

"He is a brave general,"

"Unfortunately, it met me—water is least afraid of simple power."

Water-based escape techniques excel in attack, defense, confusion, and binding. While Shibata Katsuie was undoubtedly brave, he was unable to use his full strength when trapped in Kishida Jun's giant water prison and ultimately suffered a helpless defeat.

Just like Team 3 led by Guy, who were all skilled in physical combat, they were almost wiped out when they encountered Kisame Hoshigaki.

Forced to open the Six Gates in a fit of rage, Kai used the pure physical technique 'Morning Peacock' to directly vaporize the 'Great Explosive Water Wave' that covered a distance of over a thousand meters.

Ordinary extraordinary beings certainly don't have this ability.

"Next,"

Without looking at Shibata Katsuie, who was leaning on his spear and refusing to fall, Kishida Jun's gaze fell on the castle tower in the center of the castle.

Why hasn't Oda Nobunaga shown up yet?
The Oda army had been almost completely wiped out by the enemy.
Aside from the initial surprise, the human side generally held the advantage in strength, especially the three captains from the Underworld.

"Next, only the 'big boss' Oda Nobunaga remains."

Little Dove, hopping and skipping over, said happily.

She is the vice-captain of Tanimura Hoshino, responsible for reconnaissance and enemy detection; she is the 'eyes' of the team.

"It seems so,"

The souls of the two extraordinary dogs transformed into long swords, which were tucked into their waistbands. Tanimura Hoshino also walked over.

"This mission isn't difficult—"

"Be careful!!!"

Just as everyone began to clean up the battlefield, an anxious voice came from afar.

?

Everyone turned to look.

Pegasus, possessing the 'Eye of God,' is galloping towards us.

"Heavenly Horse's Destiny,"

"What are you being careful of?!"

Hattori Hanzo turned to look at Pegasus, instinctively asking a question, his gaze suddenly shifting outwards.

what happened?

Hattori Hanzo tried to turn his head, but found that he had lost control of his lower body.

wrong!

He slightly turned his eyes and saw a headless corpse standing not far away.

The corpse was dressed in black leather armor, like a ninja; from the familiar armor and weapons, he instantly understood:

It's your own body!

click,

"Of course you should watch out for me!"

A soft, melodious voice rang in his ears, causing Hattori Hanzo's eyes to dart around again.

What came into his view was a stylish beauty, one hand reaching behind the back of the deputy captain of the underworld next to her; however, to Hattori Hanzo at this moment, there was only the question, "Who are you?"

"Little Dove!"

"Damn bastard!!"

At the same time as a series of angry shouts rang out, Hattori Hanzo's consciousness plunged into darkness.

thud,

the other side,
The headless body slowly fell to the ground.

"Water breaks the waves!"

brush----

A thin, straight stream of water suddenly swept across the battlefield, passing right in front of the woman who had pierced through the body of the vice-captain named 'Little Dove' with her palm.

As the two separated, Kojira, whose chest had been pierced, collapsed to the ground and disintegrated into scattered pieces.
Wooden puppet.

"what?!"

A little girl's spirit floated out from among the scattered puppets. Before she could figure out what was going on, two figures rushed up to her.

Clang!
The crimson 'Dog Devouring Red Lotus', along with the white 'Mocha' and the black 'Wheat', three extraordinary longswords thrust in from the left and right, blocking the opponent's second attack.

But what was blocked by the three long swords was a hand with delicate five fingers.

"You reacted pretty quickly,"

The fashionable woman tilted her head with great interest, showing no frustration at her 'mistake'.

After all, his 'fate' was simply to kill these enemies.

"Miss Yua?!"

The woman who suddenly killed Hattori Hanzo and even pierced Kobato's "gikai" was the most surprised of all, and that was Azuma Takami.

Isn't this Ms. Yua, who has been with us all along?
"Don't stand there, back up!"

As soon as Izuki's voice rang out, she had already controlled Higashi Takami's body and was fleeing at high speed.

"That woman isn't Yua, but..."

While Tanimura Wataru and Tanimura Hoshino briefly blocked the way, Kishida Jun had already rushed over, first pulling the still-shaken 'Kobato' spirit behind him; then, with a thrust of his umbrella, he forced the fashionable woman back.

Kobato's ability is reconnaissance. While her strength isn't particularly high, she's still at the level of a "weak tiger."

The lord of the underworld is not one to treat people unfairly; all six departments and twelve captains have received rewards!

Hattori Hanzo is a veteran wolf-level ninja who is also skilled in assassination.

The woman before me should never have been killed so easily:

"Oda Nobunaga?"

Faced with Kishida Jun's seemingly questioning but actually affirmative words, the fashionable woman smiled slightly.

"It is indeed me!"

???

Ah this
The surrounding crowd suddenly dispersed, and the astonished superhumans retreated again and again.

what the hell?!
The mighty Oda Nobunaga has actually infiltrated our ranks?
And you're even dressed as a woman, befitting your status as a tyrant.
If you think about it carefully, it's normal.

Oda Nobunaga was known for his unconventional behavior. The "Nobunaga Chronicle" records that Oda Nobunaga dressed as a woman and danced the "Amanto Dance" during a shrine festival.

On another occasion, after a victory, the generals celebrated with drinks and entertainment, but Nobunaga was nowhere to be seen, so everyone assumed he wasn't coming. Halfway through the drinking, a woman in elaborate attire suddenly entered, and it wasn't until she sat down in Oda Nobunaga's seat that everyone realized she was actually Oda Nobunaga in disguise.

Thinking about this, the group of extraordinary individuals didn't know how to describe their feelings.

The number one figure of the Warring States period who proclaimed "Unify the world with force" actually disguised himself as a woman to infiltrate and carry out sneak attacks and ambushes?
It's crashing! It's crashing!

Starting today, I'm unfollowing you.
"It seems there's been some misunderstanding between you—"

With a whoosh, the ghostly figure of 'Oda Nobunaga' appeared in the center of the Kakeruin family's Onmyoji as if teleported.

He spread his arms and spun around on the spot, before anyone could react:
Pfft

A pile of heads shot into the sky.

The 'defense jade pendant' was shattered on the spot, and the 'substitute paper doll' didn't even have time to activate. The headless corpses around the woman slowly fell down, blood gushing from their necks.

"Why should I, Oda Nobunaga, need others to judge my actions?"

? !
"You bastard!"

"Don't act rashly, let's retreat!"

The remaining Onmyoji were furious and ready to rush forward and fight to the death.

However, Ryuji Hanakain stopped them, and even activated the 'substitute paper doll' immediately, appearing several meters away first.

Even if this distance is just a single step for a superhuman.

"retreat--"

Kakaiin Mami Ryu also turned and left without hesitation. The difference in strength was obvious, and rushing forward would only be suicide.

"All those below the Tiger rank, withdraw from the battlefield!"

Jun Kishida, holding an umbrella, rushed over and glanced with annoyance at the corpse of the Kakeruin family's Onmyoji.

Other people are a matter for the island nation's government; but the Kakaiin family was someone he personally visited, and even the adults had instructed that Yu-kun be treated with the utmost courtesy.
Ok?
Kishida Jun paused slightly as his gaze swept over the corpse on the ground.

I see. It seems that Yu-kun was prepared all along.

"Watch out, everyone! This guy is incredibly fast!"

After the demon army attacked the wounded, Pegasus, who had arrived, had veins bulging at the corners of his eyes as he used his 'God's Eye' to lock onto 'Oda Nobunaga,' who looked like a fashionable woman.

"Don't even think about killing anyone again,"

Yagyu Onoda, who had drawn his twin swords, also joined the fray.
Jun Kishida, Wataru Tanimura, Hoshino Tanimura, Onoda Yagyu, Nozomi Tenma.
Everyone present was a master at the 'Strong Tiger' level or above, and they either possessed extraordinary swords or had 'divine bloodlines'. As the first person to learn the 'breathing technique', Yagyu Onoda was no weaker than the others.

Even with so many experts surrounding him, Oda Nobunaga remained completely undaunted!

"Hahahaha~~~"

"I've said it before: I'm willing to take over this island nation by force, that's 'unifying the world by force'! Want my head—"

Come and get it yourself!

Killing intent

A terrifying killing intent,
The murderous intent to command thousands of troops to slaughter cities and exterminate clans erupted from the center of 'Oda Nobunaga'!

The intensity of this murderous and ghostly aura suddenly materialized into a visible, dark red aura filled with negative thoughts such as distortion, ferocity, and destruction. It shot out densely in all directions like thousands of arrows, and surged towards everyone in waves like waves of blood.

In an instant, those superhumans who were still hesitating about whether to stay and help were immediately gripped by fear, feeling that they were the target of the impending horrific attack.

Retreat, retreat, retreat!

The enemy is too strong; there's no point in them staying here.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang.
As the group of extraordinary individuals sped away, a series of impacts rang out behind them, and flowers burst forth like thousands of streaks of fire!
A fierce battle erupted. Under the combined attack of numerous experts, countless cracks suddenly appeared on the ground, which then rapidly spread outwards. Countless pebbles floated up slowly, as if weightless. Then, terrifying torrents of water, lava, gales, ghostly energy, and palm strikes burst forth, crushing, pulverizing, and annihilating everything within them!

"Hahahaha~~~"

"Fifty years in the human world is but a tiny speck compared to the vastness of heaven and earth!"

In the midst of the fierce battle, countless slashes and violent elemental clashes erupted, and black and red ghostly energy soared into the sky. Yet, none of this could conceal the proud voice that echoed within.

"Looking at the world, it is like a dream, fleeting as water; life is but a single moment, and death is imminent."

In the center of the battlefield, the 'woman' was singing when she suddenly charged forward, and an inverted arc appeared in front of her; before she could move, the arc had already repelled all the attacks that were about to hit her.

This is a demonstration of breaking the sound barrier!
Not far away, there was a collapsed and broken section of the city wall, weighing at least tens of tons. But as the woman swept past, this huge ruin was suddenly lifted into the air by an immense force!
Given the strength demonstrated by this 'Oda Nobunaga', he wouldn't even need to lift a finger.

It can destroy any modern army simply by speeding past.

The hands, solidified with black energy, were no less powerful than divine weapons!
"This is the seed of enlightenment, a feeling of vexation; filling your heart, you shall go to Kyoto now, and if you see Lord Atsumori's head—"

"Hmph, hard vortex water blade!"

Seeing that this 'Oda Nobunaga' actually had the leisure to recite poetry under the siege of the crowd, Kishida Junya was furious.

On his umbrella, a massive amount of water was compressed, compressed, and compressed again! Finally, it was condensed into a water spear, spinning rapidly in layers; once it hit an enemy, it would immediately unleash a giant water tornado that stretched from the sky to the ground, which was the Second Hokage's killing move.

Although Kishida Jun doesn't have the 'Flying Thunder God Technique' to instantly appear in front of the enemy, he has teammates:

"Devouring the enemy, Crimson Lotus—"

"Moka, Mai!"

Wataru Tanimura and Hoshino Tanimura were perfectly in sync, their three giant hound-shaped weapons flanking each other from both sides, leaving their opponent nowhere to escape.

"Kongposhan!"

Pegasus hopes to also deliver a palm strike that resembles a pillar of light.
"Looking across the world, within the seas and skies, is there anyone who can live forever?"

"Whoohoo~~"

"How terrifying,"

A pack of elite wolf-level superhumans burst forth from the mist.

The constant tremors, impacts, ghostly energy, flowing water, flames, and gales coming from behind them made them wish they had two more legs.

In fact, with their superhuman speed, they could cover a hundred meters in a few seconds and a thousand meters in half a minute; they shouldn't have been in such a sorry state. However, that person was Oda Nobunaga!
Beneath his illustrious military exploits lay mountains of corpses! He even used his brother-in-law, 'Azai Nagamasa', as a bowl!

Hattori Hanzo, a large number of Onmyoji from the Keikain family, and many others were also affected.
He has already used his own corpse as evidence.

It's truly brutal!
"That's about it,"

"Is this place safe now?"

After running for several thousand meters, everyone stopped.

The fog that had enveloped the entire battlefield—specifically, the western part of Nagoya—had thinned considerably, leaving the center of the battlefield shrouded in darkness and filled with ghostly energy!
Just as everyone looked up, a white light suddenly flashed in the darkness!
boom--------

The darkness was pierced, and a massive shockwave erupted.
Like a strategic nuclear explosion, the shockwave spread endlessly across the western district in the pattern of water ripples.

The black smoke that had originally blotted out the sky was instantly swept away like ashes in the face of this storm.

Immediately afterwards, numerous cracks radiated outwards for thousands of meters like a spider web. The fierce and violent impact energy, carrying countless fragments of stone and sand, shot out from every crack, crushing and tearing apart buildings and streets along the way like biscuits, causing them to collapse!

"Tsk, that's terrifying."

The shockwave roared out like countless sea kings, but by the time it reached the superhumans, it had become less deadly.

Who's winning?
This is the issue they care about most!
brush,

The next second, a tornado rose from the center of the explosion, swirling and tossing up the smoke and dust.

"It's Lord Yagyu's sword!"

Among the extraordinary individuals, some experienced a significant mental upheaval.

Since it is Mr. Yagyu's swordsmanship, doesn't that mean...?

As expected, a group of people walked out from the center of the explosion, much to everyone's anticipation.

Leading the way was Jun Kishida, the captain of the Underworld, whose clothes were torn and whose body was stained with blood: he was also the only one who held this position while still alive.

“Oda Nobunaga,”

He held an umbrella in one hand and raised the other:

He was carrying a severed head: a tall, thin, fair-skinned, rather handsome middle-aged man with a sparse beard.

"It has been claimed!"
