I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 308 Foreseeing the Future
brush----

A massive, blood-red flying slash shot out, first cleaving a building in half, then, still not satisfied, cleaving open the top of a second building behind it.

"Ghost Attack - Chaos!"

Before the building, which had been cut in half, could collapse, a series of blood-red flying slashes shot out, cleaving the building into pieces in mid-air.

Rumble,

As the steel and concrete, cleaved into geometric shapes, fell, lightning pierced through the smoke.

"I see,"

He sped away over the fallen building debris, his gaze falling on Takashiro below the street, his muscles bulging and veins popping, and he understood.

Using spiritual power to drive the heart to beat at an excessive rate, gaining strength and speed far exceeding normal levels.

At the same time, because they have 'lost their minds', they will not be affected by illusions.

simply put,
He's just a berserker driven solely by the instinct to fight!
The simplest way to deal with this kind of enemy is to run.

If you stall for time until the opponent's berserk state subsides, you can easily take control.

However—Bukushima's pride made her unwilling to win in this way.

Noticing that Busujima had dodged the flying slash, Berserker Takashi, wielding the Executioner's Blade, crouched slightly and suddenly exerted force with both feet.

Bang! !

The ground instantly caved in and shattered, exploding into large patches of soil and rocks, with smoke and dust spreading in a ring.

With terrifying power amplified, the berserk Xiao charged towards the poison island in mid-air like a cannonball; his slashing guillotine showed no mercy, aiming to cut the girl in two!

But for Tokishima—

But they are much easier to deal with.

That's right!

After adapting to the power and speed of the berserker,
For Busujima, dealing with it is simpler than before.

While Berserker Xiao's attacks are terrifying, and his speed can barely match that of Busujima, however:
brush,

With an elegant slight turn in mid-air, the decapitation blade, accompanied by a sharp sonic boom, swept past her; though it caused Busujima's long hair to flutter, it didn't even touch the hem of her clothes.

"Junior Xiao, in this state—"

With a flash of lightning, Poison Island's figure vanished instantly.

"You can't execute precise attack dodges, can you?"

The sound came from below, and as Kuangbaoxiao subconsciously looked down, a shoe sole rapidly magnified in his eyes.

Shadow Dance Leaf

Bang! !

The kick, delivered from below, struck Fierce Filial Piety in the chin, sending him flying high into the air.

The Poison Island's "God's Eye" allows one to copy various physical techniques with a single glance, and to copy "techniques" with multiple glances; there are countless explosive combat skills, which often leads to the frustration of having "too many skills" to use.

However, most of the 'low-level skills' have no real impact on the current battle.

We need a decisive, killer move!

He held the 'Kusanagi Sword' in one hand, and formed the Yin seal with the five fingers of the other hand.

"The art of dragon fire!"

With a spit, raging flames erupted from the poison island's mouth, expanding and growing continuously as it flew.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a massive fire dragon, baring its fangs and claws as it chased after the kicked-away Berserker Xiao, opening its enormous mouth to devour him!
"cut--"

Sensing the danger approaching from below, Xiao, in a berserk state, gripped his sword with both hands, twisted his waist in mid-air, and slashed down with the sword.

Tear!

The crimson flying slash shot out again, tearing the fire dragon apart from its forehead.

The greatsword continued to cleave down, splitting the enormous fire dragon in two from the very center.

The raging flames flowed past on both sides, but the madman who cleaved the sea of ​​fire with his sword did not retreat but advanced; a blood-red light appeared on his body, and he actually charged down against the flames until a blurry figure appeared behind the flames, and immediately began to fiercely slash with his sword.

Clang————

The 'decapitation sword', glowing with a blood-red light, collided violently with the 'Kusanagi sword', which was wreathed in lightning.

call out,

The next instant, a figure was sent flying backward.

It's Poison Island!
Her 'eye of God' is indeed miraculous, but it does not affect her physical constitution.

Xiao's "Decapitation Blade" already absorbs blood and increases strength, and after activating Berserk—no, I mean "God of Fury"—its power increases even more.

In a head-on confrontation, Pokdo will definitely be at a disadvantage.

No problem, the preparations are complete.

"Filial piety, junior fellow apprentice,"

Faced with the rampaging, berserk Xiao,

Busujima dodged with a swift movement and sped off towards a distant building amidst flashes of lightning.

?

Even in his berserk state, Takashi was slightly taken aback by Busujima's deliberate escape.

"I admit you've caught up with me, but—"

As he sped to the top of the building, Busujima pointed his lightning-infused Kusanagi sword at the sky and deliberately kept his distance while looking at his fellow countryman and classmate.

"Victory still belongs to me."

This is her persistence.

Boom boom boom~~
The sky above where the two were fighting had become overcast with dark clouds.

Those are the dark clouds formed after Tokushima used the "Great Dragon Fire Technique" earlier, which shot into the sky!
That's right. With that fire-based spell, Busujima didn't expect to be able to defeat the berserk Takashi: the two were evenly matched, and Takashi was the kind of superhuman being with thick skin and constant health regeneration. It was simply unrealistic to kill him in one move unless—an attack that surpassed the Tiger level was available.

For normal dark clouds to form lightning, a process of continuous accumulation is required.

Boom! ! !

However, driven by the Poison Island's 'technique', the sky changed, and layers of enchanting electric snakes spread and wandered through the gaps in the dark clouds; amidst the deafening thunder, they drew scorching white trails in the sky, forming a lightning image that resembled both a lion and a dragon's head.

"This move is called 'Qilin',"

The Kusanagi sword pointed towards the sky, and Busujima, whose lightning formed a terrifying behemoth behind him, spoke calmly.

"Put down the executioner's blade; it's not too late to leave now."

"Kill, kill, kill!!!"

However, her response was a furious roar as Xiao, carrying a thick, bloody light, charged straight at her like a missile.

"Let it vanish with the lightning."

Since that's the case, then Poison Island will no longer show any mercy.

With a swipe of the Kusanagi sword, the giant lightning beast behind him suddenly converged towards the center of the dark clouds; from small streams to many, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, they suddenly gathered together into a bright and dazzling waterfall of lightning, which blasted towards the raging Xiao who was leaping and charging forward.

It's a long story, but it's actually only a fraction of a second.

Boom————

As the lightning struck, the entire Bunkyo Ward was suddenly illuminated!
A deafening, thunderous roar erupted, and lightning flashed across the sky, like thousands of silver snakes dancing wildly.

Then these lightning bolts attracted each other, forming a dazzling ball of lightning that swirled in the air, gradually shrinking in size until it finally vanished.

In the lightning,
A charred figure fell from mid-air.

The reason why Qilin's move is rated as S-level is that the most difficult part is how to control the direction and speed of the lightning, because the lightning is very fast, and if it is not controlled properly, it will affect the user.

But for Poison Island, this is not a problem.

The answer is: Alternating current!
Normal lightning is a pulse of current, but the spell created by Busujima has been imbued with the properties of alternating current. By simply utilizing the attraction between positive and negative charges, she can make 'Kirin' automatically lock onto the enemy: this is why she said 'Put down the Executioner's Blade,' because in the previous attack, she had already imbued Takashi's weapon with a different kind of charge.

This blow is sure to hit!

ended.

?

Seeing Xiao lying motionless on the ground, still gripping the executioner's blade, with a faint glow of blood flowing into his body, Busujima first instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, then a surge of inexplicable anger welled up in his heart.

Still not admitting defeat?
"Then I'll cut off your arm and see how you uphold 'justice' then!"

With a single step, he leaped from the top of the building and floated towards Xiao, who was lying on the ground.

? !
Just then, a person walked out onto the ruined street.

He was a burly, bearded man in a black karate uniform, his serious face so thick with wrinkles that it seemed as if it were made of steel.

He wasn't walking very fast, but the timing was perfect; just as he reached Xiao's side, Dokushima arrived.

Snapped,

Raise your hand and grab,
His large, bony fingers gripped the swung Kusanagi sword.

ha? ? ?
The two tomoe in Busujima's eyes trembled, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had been under a spell.

Her sword strike wasn't particularly fast: she was only intending to sever Xiao's arm and take the 'decapitation sword' with her.

But it's definitely not so slow that someone could easily grab it!
"Little girl, you've already won."

The bearded man who had grabbed the Kusanagi sword spoke, his voice steady, just like his personality.

"Now that the battle is over, why resort to killing?"

crackling and popping

His response was a sudden burst of lightning from the Kusanagi sword, and the sight of Busujima being dragged away by the sword!

First, he used lightning to paralyze his muscles, then sliced ​​through him with his longsword, severing all five of his fingers; to teach this guy that not everything can be grabbed!
brush,

The Kusanagi sword, crackling with lightning, missed its mark, causing Busujima's pupils to contract.

This is? !
He instinctively retreated more than ten meters.

Dokushima's expression turned serious as he stared at the unassuming, bearded man in front of him.

She had just unleashed a burst of lightning and executed a swift, sweeping sword strike; however, at the same moment, her opponent released the Kusanagi sword and withdrew his hand.

It sounds incredibly simple, but it's practically impossible to execute! Even a 0.01-second difference in movement between the two could result in a sword severing a finger. Even if it were a performance, the risks would be enormous, especially since Busujima knew perfectly well that he had no intention of faking it.

We'll see what kind of ability it is!
The two tomoe in her eyes spun rapidly, but the bearded uncle opposite her didn't look at her; his gaze was fixed on Xiao on the ground.

"Wang Ma's Disciple"

"Where are you looking?!"

Suppressing his anger and questioning, Busujima, sword and all, transformed into a winding streak of lightning and suddenly charged towards the bearded man.

The Kusanagi sword is poised to strike!
The lightning suddenly changed direction in the next instant;
We swiftly traveled around it, following its strange, intermittent trajectory.

Facing the poison islands speeding around him and the Kusanagi sword that could strike at any moment, the bearded man remained unmoved; he looked as if he was terrified, or as if he was confident.

He looks like just an 'ordinary' superhuman.
As they sped around, Busujima, who showed no signs of anything amiss, suddenly sharpened his gaze.

kill!

next moment,
Having circled behind the bearded man, Busujima slashed at the back of his neck with his Kusanagi sword.

Just as Poison Island thrust out his longsword, the bearded man also turned around at the same time, bringing his five fingers together in a 'piercing' motion to stab at Poison Island.

Pfft

After a soft sound,
It was lightning that suddenly flew backward, retreated rapidly, and exploded backward!!

"how is this possible?"

The one who flew out was Busujima; the dripping blood on her wrist and the falling Kusanagi sword were nothing compared to the shock she felt.

Just now, she slashed at the back of her opponent's neck with her sword, and at the same time, her opponent turned around and attacked with a 'piercing hand': it was this turn that not only allowed her to avoid the Kusanagi sword by a hair's breadth, but also caused the opponent's 'piercing hand' to pierce into Busujima's wrist!
This situation is too bizarre. Even if two people are of one mind, it would be difficult to achieve such exquisite 'coordination' after practicing hundreds or thousands of times.

To reiterate, Busujima is a ruthless killer; how could he possibly cooperate with the other side?!

This is neither scientific nor extraordinary!
Poison Island, whose 'eye of God' kept turning in his eye sockets but couldn't see anything unusual, murmured unconsciously.

"What ability is this?"

"Yes, it's a technique called 'First of First'."

The bearded man, who turned around and defeated Poison Island with a single move, but did not turn his head, slowly began to explain.

"It is a technique that involves sensing the opponent's intention and striking the moment the opponent is about to act. To put it simply, you can think of it as 'prediction'."

???

Upon hearing the bearded man's explanation, Busujima continued with his counter-question:

"Extraordinary abilities?"

"No,"

"This can be considered an extension of the five senses."

The burly man with the thick beard didn't look into Dokushima's eyes and continued his calm explanation.

"In swordsmanship, there is a theory of three priorities: attacking first, dodging and counterattacking, and defending and counterattacking."

"The technique I use involves the sixth sense, which is beyond the five senses; its essence is the touch of the soul, to know the opponent's every move - which I have named 'First of First'."

"Able to predict my next attack?"

After hearing the other party's explanation, how could Busujima, a swordsman, not understand the terrifying nature of this ability?
Given equal skill level, physical condition, and weaponry, the one with this skill can easily crush and toy with the other!
With precognitive abilities, how can you fight like that?
brush,

With a swift movement, the Kusanagi Sword, crackling with lightning, flew back into her palm.

He streaked with lightning as he flew backward toward the building next to him, soaring up the wall like lightning; as he soared into the sky, Busujima raised the Kusanagi sword high, pointing it at the remaining dark clouds in the sky.

Since close combat will inevitably lead to suppression, then we should rely on ranged attacks.
Before she could even make a move, the bearded man below had already squatted down and stuck his hands into the ground.

Boom! ! !

Amidst the tremors of the earthquake, a large section of street and building debris was "dug" out of the ground by the bearded man in a very "unscientific" manner.

This is really
Feeling deflated, Busujima, who had been poised to strike, swung his sword downwards.

The remaining lightning in the dark clouds suddenly gathered and shot downwards—

The large debris thrown at it was blasted away.

"have they gone?"

Thunder blasted most of the large wreckage apart, and as the dust settled, Poison Island was nowhere to be seen.

The bearded man turned around, squatted down, and picked up the unconscious Xiaohe's decapitation sword.

"Send it to Wang Ma."

He was, after all, a friend's disciple. For a traditional martial artist like the bearded uncle 'Kuroki Gensai', it was certainly impossible to stand by and watch him die.

Great!

Yu, who witnessed all of this through the 'telescope technique,' couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

This martial artist named 'Kuroki Gensai' has actually developed the ability of 'precognition', making him a 'surpassing version' of the character!

In the Naruto world, there are also those with the ability to 'predict the future'.

The one in charge is—

During Boruto's era, Jiraiya's clone: ​​Kashin Koji!
He can 'see' countless futures and then select the optimal future to advance.

It is none other than one of the three legendary figures on Tieba: 'Information Master'.
