Most importantly, they never thought of fighting the resistance fighters to the death, because in their eyes, the resistance fighters were all Inazuma people, their compatriots. If they were compatriots, why should they kill each other?

Those who were not victims of the Eyehunting Order will never understand why the rebels hated them so much, and why they hated the Eyehunting Order so much.

"Are you really going to go this far?"

On the battlefield, the two generals, Kujo Sara and Goro, were having a conversation.

“You are also citizens of Inazuma. If you can leave on your own, the general may be lenient and not pursue the things you did before.”

Kujo Sara's expression was very serious, and these words did not sound like a joke at all when she spoke them.

"If she can abolish the Eye Hunting Order, we naturally won't do anything more."

Goro knew that his conversation with Kujo Sara was just a formality, and neither side could be trusted, because things had progressed to this point and it was impossible to reconcile over a few words.

Only a war can bring peace.

"It seems we have nothing more to say. In that case, let's start the war."

Goro looked at Kujo Sara, who remained silent, and then turned and returned to the army.

"Start the war!"

With a command given, soldiers from both sides began to charge, their shouts instantly engulfing the surrounding world, as if no living being wanted to approach this place.

Casualties occurred the moment they made contact, and the rebels, aided by the evil eye, fought with increasing ferocity, even showing signs of suppressing the shogunate army on several occasions.

If it weren't for their numerical advantage, the shogunate army would probably have already been defeated.

In the distance, Suzumiya Yu and Utagawa watched everything silently from a corner. They did not make a move, and their faces remained expressionless as to the battle.

Suddenly, Udagawa noticed a place where Kaedehara Manyo was fighting alone against three God Eye holders of the Shogunate army.

Despite being at a clear disadvantage, Kaedehara Manyo displayed strength far exceeding that of the three. In a short while, he actually killed one of them, while the remaining two were wounded and fled.

Instead of giving chase, he turned and charged in another direction, where many rebels needed help.

Kujo Sara and Goro, the two archers, killed almost every enemy with a single arrow, showing no mercy whatsoever.

"Why haven't we seen their strategist?"

A hint of doubt arose in Kujo Sara's heart. From the beginning until now, she had not seen Sango no Kokoro. The resistance army had always been led by Goro.

Even if she is the strategist who is in charge of the rear, as a healer with the Eye of God, Coral Palace Xin Hai would not possibly hide away.

Could it be... some kind of trap?

"not good!"

Sensing something was amiss, Kujo Sara looked around.

One mysterious bubble after another rose from the ground. Suddenly, a group of rebels emerged from the distant woods, led by Coral Palace Heart Sea.

When did they get behind us?

Shocked, Kujo Sara glanced at the situation on the battlefield.

After being equipped with the Evil Eye, the rebels' strength increased by several levels. Even a soldier who had never received professional training could easily defeat their elite troops.

Now, Coral Palace Heart Sea has cut off their rear route. If they don't leave now, they will be completely wiped out.

"withdraw!"

With Kujo Sara issuing the order to retreat, the already demoralized shogunate army collapsed in disarray. Everyone fled in panic, not caring even if their comrades were trampled under their feet.

"Chase them! Don't let those guys get away!"

On the rebel side, before Goro could give the order, many people rushed forward to give chase without considering whether there might be a trap.

Coral Palace Heart Sea didn't say anything when she saw this scene. Their all-out offensive this time was not just about repelling the shogunate army.

But just then, she saw a soldier beside her fall to the ground for some unknown reason.

She rushed forward to check on the situation and found that the other person looked extremely pale and was barely breathing.

"What happened? Are you injured?"

Coral Palace Heart Sea immediately used the power of the Eye of God to heal him, but she soon discovered that her treatment had no effect at all.

The soldier was not injured; he was in this state because his internal organs were failing.

At this moment, several more soldiers collapsed, exhibiting the exact same symptoms as him.

As more and more people fell, the resistance forces, which had initially held a significant advantage, immediately lost a large portion of their fighting strength.

At the same time, the fleeing shogunate army also noticed this phenomenon. They all stopped and looked at the rebels with hesitant eyes.

Kujo Sara was also stunned. What was going on? Could it be that the rebels were trying to lure them into a counterattack? But it didn't seem like they were faking it.

The sudden turn of events left Coral Palace Xin Hai somewhat bewildered; her mind was in complete turmoil, and she was unable to calm down and think clearly.

It's similar on Goro's side; you could say that no one can remain calm right now.

"Gather the remaining troops and prepare for a counterattack!"

Kujo Sara was the first to react. With her command, the bewildered shogunate army began to move again.

In fact, Kujo Sara was still a little worried. She was afraid that the resistance was just pretending, but after actually getting to know them, she found that it was real.

Chapter Forty-Eight: A Rescue as if It Were a Play

For some reason, some of the rebels lost their ability to fight. They tried desperately to get up from the ground, but found that their limbs were completely powerless and their whole bodies were limp.

They didn't know why things had turned out this way; no one knew the answer. What they were worried about now was how to deal with the Shogunate army's counterattack.

The battlefield immediately descended into chaos. Kaedehara Manyo escorted several incapacitated rebels to safety, and in the instant he looked up, he saw the shogunate army surging towards him menacingly.

With no time to consider anything else, he could only draw his sword and charge forward. In the current situation, let alone defeating the shogunate army, it would be difficult for them to even retreat.

Even if they manage to retreat successfully, they will suffer heavy losses and have no strength left to resist.

"Don't panic! Get ready to fight!"

Goro roared and then charged into the crowd to fight the shogunate army.

Coral Palace Xin Hai took out a booklet from her pocket, which contained many solutions for dealing with emergencies.

She flipped through the pages rapidly, her expression extremely anxious, but she couldn't find a useful solution.

As she watched more and more of her companions fall, a sense of powerlessness suddenly welled up inside her.

No one will come to their rescue. Although the anonymous person said he would intervene if necessary, the current situation is such that even if he did, it wouldn't be able to salvage it.

It's all over. After today, the war between the Shogunate army and the rebel army will come to an end, ending with their crushing defeat.

Why did this happen...?

The screams of the rebel soldiers echoed around her. Coral Palace Heart Sea collapsed to her knees, powerless. Although she was the leader of the rebels, she was, in the end, just a girl with a rather special identity.

Faced with this situation, she was simply unable to think calmly.

If... if we could have stopped those generals back then, things might not have turned out this way.

She deeply regretted not being firm enough in her stance, which led to such a terrible mistake.

Negative emotions filled Coral Palace Heart Sea's heart. She covered her face and began to sob. It was so noisy around that no one could hear her crying.

Just then, she suddenly heard people exclaiming in the distance.

Looking up, a figure leaped down from a distant mountain, descending like a god into the center of the battlefield.

With a loud "boom," his fist slammed into the ground, instantly cracking the once-hard surface. The powerful impact sent all the surrounding Shogunate soldiers flying.

A thick fog spread outwards, and everyone turned their attention to this direction.

As the thick fog dissipated, a figure slowly emerged.

He was wearing a tattered cloak, which obscured his figure and face. If you looked closer, you could see that he was wearing a demon mask.

"It's that guy!"

Kujo Sara's gaze sharpened. She recognized the person as the one who had rescued Udagawa from the castle tower.

Even General Thunder couldn't stop him back then. Although they searched for him for a while afterward, they couldn't find any trace of him. Unexpectedly, he appeared here.

Suzumiya Yu has made her move, and everything is proceeding according to her plan.

During the decisive battle between the Shogunate army and the rebel army, the rebel soldiers will lose their fighting ability due to the backlash of the evil eye. At that time, he can make a heroic appearance and save them.

"Spell activation!"

A twelve-pointed snowflake array appeared beneath her feet. Suzumiya Yu glanced around and then launched an attack on the shogunate army.

In order to prevent Kujo Sara from recognizing him as Muzan Kibutsuji, he used the Destruction Kill technique instead of the Breathing Technique, and he didn't even carry a sword with him.

Utagawa was observing from a distance, ready to respond to any unexpected situation.

"Destructive Slash - Shattering Style - Myriad Leaf Flash Willow!"

He slammed his fist into the ground with such force that the ground shattered like leaf patterns, sending everyone within a radius of several meters flying.

Shaking off the stone fragments from her fist, Ryoumi saw that the surrounding Shogunate soldiers were looking at her with fear.

They were afraid because many people recognized him as the one who had rescued Udagawa.

With the strength to go toe-to-toe with General Raiden, how can they possibly defeat such a powerful opponent?

Therefore, the fighting spirit that the shogunate army had just begun to ignite was instantly extinguished by the appearance of Suzumiya Yu.

Kujo Sara also looked solemn. The person in front of him was likely the strongest opponent he had ever encountered so far.

"retreat!"

She remained calm, analyzed the current situation, and concluded that she had achieved her goal.

The rebels were no longer capable of fighting them, so there was no need for her to waste any more time here with Suzumiya Yu.

Moreover, given the strength that Suzumiya Yuu has demonstrated, she could kill them all by herself.

So she gave the order to retreat.

Ryou Miyako watched the departing shogunate army, but he chose not to pursue them, because there was no need.

He turned to look at the rebels, who were all looking at him with gratitude, but as soon as he turned away, that look turned into wariness.

He repelled the shogunate army, but that doesn't necessarily mean he was helping them; perhaps he had other motives?
