Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

This level of rain does indeed weaken the power of firearms like handguns, and you can't expect these police officers to carry several automatic rifles when they enforce the law, so they just make do with what they have.

More importantly, those men in black suits were hit by bullets; some were struck in the head, heart, or vital organs like joints, and fell swaying, but most continued their fearless charge.

Some of the men in black suits were even hit by multiple bullets, but none of them were fatally wounded. They didn't slow down their running speed at all, as if the bullets hadn't hit them at all.

Uesugi Kiyoshi squinted, seeing the result he had expected.

These ritual practitioners, while not possessing abnormally strong physical abilities and far inferior to Yokota and the Crimson and Blue Twin Demons, are still quite troublesome due to their fearlessness of pain, lack of sensation, and relentless pursuit of the dead.

When Uesugi Kiyoshi cut them down, he would dismember them, behead them, or pierce their hearts with a single sword strike. This is why the sword he had stolen earlier was so badly damaged.

However, he achieved the effect he wanted.

After this round of gunfire, the man in the black suit slowed his pursuit for a moment, giving Shen Cheng a chance to catch his breath.

"You all step back and go evacuate the crowd."

Uesugi Kiyoshi stretched his body slightly, adjusted his breathing rhythm, and gave Yamazaki Kana a few instructions.

Then, he appeared as fast as lightning.

After Shen Cheng's rampage and a barrage of gunfire, there weren't many of those in black suits left; those who remained were mostly wounded and injured.

Uesugi Kiyoshi took a few steps forward, brushing past Shinzumi. He crouched down and used the "Iron Mountain Lean" move from Bajiquan to crash into the arms of a man in a black suit, sending him flying several meters. He then snatched the wakizashi from the man's hand.

He stood still, sword in hand, his back to Shen Cheng's somewhat eerie, blood-red gaze, and spoke softly.

"Miss Dongwen is resting at my house and is not in danger."

"I am Uesugi Kiyoshi, and I am the swordsmanship instructor that President Azuma arranged for Miss Azuma."

"Enough with the chit-chat, delays will only lead to trouble. I'll go left, you go right, let's eliminate the enemy first, then we can talk about other things."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Kasumi slowly nod. Uesugi Kiyoshi took a deep breath and revealed a smile tinged with bloodlust.

He felt no pity for these ritual practitioners who were possessed and bewitched by ghosts and gods.

Holding a short wakizashi, Uesugi Kiyoshi charged headlong into the crowd of men in black suits. With focused concentration, he carved a bloody path through the crowd with his wakizashi.

He abandoned the power of his sword strikes in pursuit of extreme speed. With a few phantom-like slashes, he disrupted the black-suited man's forward momentum, forcing him to fall to the ground. Then, he used his wakizashi to cut a fatal gash in the enemy's heart or throat.

This is the style of the kodachi (small sword) from the "Five Rings Book," a military treatise on the "Niten Ichi-ryu" school of swordsmanship created by Miyamoto Musashi, a great swordsman of the late Sengoku period and early Edo period in Japan.

Niten Ichi-ryu is a two-sword style, which simply means unifying the movements of the large and small swords in both hands to achieve the goal of defeating the opponent. Therefore, the kodachi technique in Niten Ichi-ryu is also quite famous.

The core idea of ​​this swordsmanship is to create openings for the opponent with combos, and then, during the gap in the enemy's swing, to stab the enemy's chest with the kodachi.

The continuous thuds of bodies falling to the ground were proof of the power of this swordsmanship.

These black suits posed no threat to Uesugi Kiyoshi at all. He easily broke through their formation. When he suddenly turned around, he saw a girl wielding a sword, seemingly dancing in the rain, leaving trails of blood.

Shen Cheng gently placed her hand on the blade of her katana, applying slight pressure.

A trickle of blood slid down the blade, but clung firmly to the blade, unwashed even by the torrential rain.

She arched her back, chanting softly, her smile bordering on madness.

As the red light in her eyes intensified, a sharp shout suddenly rang out.

"With my will, I will take your life!"

"With my blood, I will capture your soul!"

"Myoho Muramasa, bloom! Sakura Maru!"

The knife in Shencheng's hand devoured its master's blood and emitted an eerie red light.

In an instant, Shen Cheng and the knife in his hand seemed to become one, flashing through the crowd with a blinding flash of blood.

The movement was so fast that Uesugi Kiyoshi couldn't even see it.

After a single thought, the knife is drawn and the blade is sheathed.

Shen Cheng, with a cold face, made a blood-shaking motion and sheathed his sword.

Behind her, more than a dozen heads rose into the sky in response to the sound of swords being sheathed, blood gushing out like a fountain, creating a breathtaking scene of hellish carnage.

Uesugi Kiyoshi blinked, stunned by the beauty of the sword strike.

This definitely used extraordinary abilities; no ordinary person could unleash such a sword strike!

But is it necessary to use a powerful move to deal with a bunch of small fry?

The visual effects are indeed very impressive.

Well, comparatively speaking, Kamisumi might be more suitable for the "Demon Sword Princess" spirit than Azuma Maki.

A thought suddenly flashed through Uesugi Kiyoshi's mind.

For a fleeting moment, Shen Cheng's figure overlapped with the demon sword girl in the Hundred Demons Scroll; their unruly sword-wielding auras were almost identical.

Without thinking much about it, he was just about to go up and say hello, and then take Shen Cheng to see Dongwen Maki first.

He fed Dongwen Maki so much inspirational advice in order to cheer her up. Firstly, because his demon sword spirit was still inside Dongwen Maki, and secondly, if he wanted to profit from the changes in the Dongwen Society, this young lady Dongwen was an indispensable figurehead.

Hopefully, this demon swordsman, Shinju, will bring some good news.

Surely a dignified snake from Dongwen can't just leave his daughter two knives as her entry into the game?

Lost in thought, Uesugi Kiyoshi had only taken a few steps when he caught a glimpse of a firelight behind him out of the corner of his eye.

When he turned around, his face immediately turned extremely ugly.

In the alley, on the first floor of the apartment building where his home was located.

For some reason, thick smoke and flames had already spread, and if it weren't for the rain, the entire apartment building would probably have been set ablaze.

Without saying a word, he gripped the knife in his hand, turned, and ran away.

Rin, Kyoko, and that Miss Higashifumi and her follower are all still at home.

They can't get hurt!

Chapter 79 Good News, Bad News

Uesugi Kiyoshi walked briskly, arriving at the apartment building in just a few seconds.

Thick smoke billowed from his house, and flames flickered. A burnt smell mixed with the smell of gasoline broke through the rain and reached Uesugi Kiyoshi's nostrils.

Uesugi Kiyoshi's face was frighteningly gloomy. He cursed under his breath and tried to rush into the stairwell to rescue the person first.

Before he could take a step, he heard a familiar, delicate shout coming from the apartment.

That's Izumi Rin's voice; he can't be mistaken.

The next second, a deafening crash like an avalanche was heard. The door to Uesugi Kiyoshi's apartment balcony, along with the ripped concrete block, smashed through the balcony railing under immense force and fell straight into the alley with a dull thud.

The flames burning on the wooden door were mercilessly extinguished by the torrential rain.

His small balcony was nearly half destroyed by Izumi Rin's kick!

Then, Izumi Rin's still somewhat excited voice rang out.

"Quick, everyone jump! It's the first floor, it'll be fine. I'll cover the rear!"

Despite being surrounded by flames, Kazumi Rin was completely unaware, acting like a teacher leading a group of children on a field trip, methodically arranging the next steps, her voice even sounding somewhat excited.

First to emerge was Maki Azuma, carrying Kagura on her back. Without hesitation, she leaped down, and was quickly helped up by Kasumi, who was following behind Kiyoshi Uesugi, and landed safely.

Upon seeing Shen Cheng, Dongwen Zhenxi's eyes reddened again. She choked back a few sobs, but forced herself to hold back her tears.

When Shen Cheng saw that Dongwen Zhenxi was indeed alright, she breathed a sigh of relief and her expression calmed down. She let the young lady rest her head on her shoulder and her eyes showed a rare tenderness.

The next one to come out, Nohara Kyoko, was startled by the sudden turn of events. However, after being pushed onto the balcony by Izumi Rin, she saw Uesugi Kiyoshi waiting below with his arms outstretched. Suddenly, she felt a surge of courage and jumped down, completing a brilliant dribbling tackle that resulted in Uesugi Kiyoshi embracing her warm and soft body.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming somewhat romantic, a dark figure emerged from the flames amidst thick smoke, even completing a perfect 360-degree turn in mid-air, before landing flawlessly on a one-legged stance.

The most outrageous thing was that she was also holding a wooden box in her hands. After that complicated movement, the box was already a bit overburdened, revealing several thread-bound ancient books.

After landing, Izumi Rin hopped on one leg, holding the box in her hand high, to show off to Uesugi Kiyoshi.

"Qing! Look, I rescued this. Isn't this one of Dad's books? I think I've seen it before."

She hopped along on one leg, seemingly not to show off, while her other leg drooped weakly, possibly due to an injury.

"But I haven't finished eating yet!"

"Wow, Kyoko is amazing!"

Rin Kamiizumi's big eyes were full of stars as she looked expectantly at Kyoko Nohara in Kiyoshi Uesugi's arms.

"The braised pork with ginger was delicious, and the miso soup was also very good, but the portion was too small. I wanted to eat a few more bites before running away, or maybe I should try to save the food first. It was Xingzi who said she would make it for me again. These books are Qing's treasures and cannot be lost, so I reluctantly chose to save them."

Uesugi Kiyoshi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that no one was injured. Although he felt a little sorry and guilty about Izumi Rin's injury, he was not too worried. The so-called increase in physical strength also enhanced the ability to recover from injuries. It might take a hundred days for someone else to recover from a broken bone, but for her, she could probably recover in a day and a night.

He first released Nohara Kyoko, patted her head reassuringly, and spoke in a very gentle voice.

"Xingzi, don't be afraid, it's alright, I'm here."

He said this because he saw Nohara Kyoko's body trembling and silently wiping away tears.

"I wasn't afraid."

"I just feel sorry for Uesugi-kun. My aunt said I'm a bad omen, that my parents died young because of me, and that after my aunt adopted me, my uncle's work went badly, he had no friends at school, and then that accident happened to him, which ultimately caused Uesugi-kun's house to burn down."

"Woo."

Finally, Kyoko Nohara couldn't hold back her tears.

"It's all because of me, I'm sorry, Uesugi-kun!"

"I caused Uesugi-kun to lose his home."

She was terrified that Uesugi Kiyoshi would abandon her, and she felt that she had just begun a dreamlike new life, only to be met with this unexpected turn of events. Perhaps it was fate. Overwhelmed with grief, she was extremely heartbroken. Having grown accustomed to living under someone else's roof and being treated coldly, Nohara Kyoko was extremely insecure.

Uesugi Kiyoshi was somewhat amused and exasperated; this little white rabbit was quite adept at taking the blame.

What does this have to do with her?

He gently patted Nohara Kyoko's back and comforted her, "It's not your fault, Kyoko. I've already explained what happened with your uncle. It wasn't your fault."

“These people were after me, and they put you in danger. That’s why I’m sorry.”

"I also want to thank you for reminding Rin to preserve those ancient books for me. They are sword manuals given to me by my master. I would be in great trouble if they were burned."
