Chapter 61: The Unparalleled Swordsman!

"Bang!"

"clank!!"

"Crack!"

"Wow!"

As the figures passed each other, Saito looked at his broken blade and fell silent.

So strong

too strong.

I've fought Battosai before, but I've never been so utterly defeated.

"Did Saito-san lose too?"

"It seems that the rumor was indeed not unfounded."

As Okita watched the other person sheath their sword and leave, he couldn't help but sigh.

"slow"

"enough!"

The team members next to him were about to rush forward, but Okita stopped them with his hand.

"team leader?!"

"If we chase after him any further, he'll pull out his murder weapon."

"That's enough. The mission has failed."

Before Okita could speak, Saito looked at his broken sword and explained.

"Rumor has it that Himura Battousai possesses two swords."

"If he draws the knife from the lower part of his waist, it means death; if he draws the knife from the upper part, it means life."

"It's ironic, but we were indeed saved by his kindness."

As Okita watched the legend gradually disappear into the forest, he felt a little lost.

He and Saito Hajime, as the two captains and top fighters of the Shinsengumi, were stopped by Battosai alone while they were chasing after him together.

Okita could clearly sense the change in that person, and he really wanted to know what Battosai, who was about the same age as him, had gone through.

Running and weaving through the forest, Kenshin then stopped in the woods.

"Oh dear, we were discovered so quickly?"

"I was actually quite confident."

"senior."

The figure hiding behind the big tree emerged, its gaze fixed intently on them.

"Zhizhi Xiong, is there something you need?"

"No, I just wanted to see your swordsmanship up close, but unfortunately, it was already over when I arrived."

"Spread your hands to avoid any misunderstanding," Shishio Makoto shrugged.

"How terrifying, senpai."

"But why didn't you kill the two captains of the Shinsengumi just now?"

"Given your condition, it should be easy for you to do, right?"

As if hinting at something, Shishio chuckled and pressed on with his question.

"That's our formidable enemy."

"Mr. Gui agrees."

"Wow!!"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhizhi suddenly saw that the senior had drawn his knife without any regard for reason.

(So ​​fast!)

Just as he was about to draw his sword in defense, Kenshin had already drawn his sword and swung it at him.

Sweating profusely, Zhizhi Xiong felt a sense of disbelief.

By the time he fully reacted, let alone drawing his sword, the senior had already finished the attack with a single strike.

"!"

Coming to his senses, Zhizhi Xiong realized that he didn't seem to be injured.

"This knife is incapable of killing anyone."

"They can't even hurt someone."

Holding the sword horizontally in front of his chest, Kenshin said coldly.

"?"

A knife that can't hurt anyone? How could such a thing exist?

Even a reverse-blade knife can hurt someone.

My gaze shifted to the knife in the senior's hand; it was indeed a "fine knife" I had never seen before.

In his opinion, this knife shouldn't be so incapable of harming a person, right?

But just now, Kenshin did indeed slash at him, yet he was completely unharmed.

"Crack."

The sword was sheathed, and Kenshin continued walking through the forest without saying a word.

"tsk"

Looking at Kenshin's retreating figure, Shishio's previous desire to compete vanished.

If that senior had wanted to kill him, it would have been a matter of moments.

It's no wonder that the Shinsengumi chose to send two top fighters, Saito Hajime and Okita Souji.

Even so, he was still defeated by this senior without any doubt.

Walking down the street, Kenshin recalled that experience and knew that he had transcended worldly perceptions.

(That knife is called "Tenseiga," it can neither hurt nor kill.)

(Consider this a consolation prize for your participation.)

(However, the true power of the Tenseiga is sealed, and you are probably well aware of the conditions for unlocking it.)

(That's right, the key is to participate in the Dragon Ball War again and return to this world alive.)

(The woman named "Ba" will be frozen inside the necklace in your hand. Tenseiga can save her, but only for ten years.)

(If you are not summoned within ten years, then both Tenseiga and she are in a dead end.)

The unreasonable words of that "god" left Kenshin no room to refuse.

Several months after returning here, Kenshin did indeed find what he needed to do.

Besides continuing the reform movement, that is

"Himura, the information you requested has been found."

"But it seems to be in Kyoto."

Are you sure you want to go now?

Kenshin took the note from the person who had inquired about him, his cold and stern face remaining unchanged. He simply put it away and left.

"Did Mr. Gui really let him leave?"

As Kenshin left, the group of people watching from the second floor couldn't help but feel a little restless.

"Let him go. Since he said he was going to visit, he'll definitely come back."

"but."

"If any fools dare to try out my sword, I wouldn't mind watching them die."

"Zhizhi Xiong, you!"

……

What kind of wind is blowing?

"That foolish disciple who went down the mountain without permission, would he come back at this time?"

"Aren't you going to continue saving the world?"

Looking at the familiar face before him, Hiko Seijuro couldn't help but sneer.

"The people will be saved naturally."
