I assembled the strongest swordsman group.

"Halt! You two traitors! I am Fujii of the Shintenryu..."

This short guy wants to expose his own family.

However, before he could finish speaking, Qing Deng's sword flashed with a straight, cold light, slicing across his side and drawing a splatter of blood.

Using the momentum generated by running, Qingdeng slashed a large gash in the dwarf's abdomen, sidestepped him, and freed his left hand to use the weapon-disarming technique he had learned in his previous life to snatch the dwarf's bamboo spear.

Qing Deng is now increasingly feeling that being left-handed is a really useful talent. Both hands are now equally dexterous, which has greatly increased the attack power and dexterity of his left side, allowing Qing Deng to use a wider variety of attack methods.

After snatching the bamboo spear, Qingdeng turned it around and thrust it at a burly man with a thick beard who was positioned to his right front.

Qingdeng felt a tremendous force coming from his arm.

The tip of the bamboo spear sank deep into the bearded man's chest. The force of the impact caused the bamboo shaft to bend abruptly into an arc shape.

Immediately afterwards, the cushioning force of the bamboo spear was suddenly released, and the bamboo spear snapped straight, sending the bearded man flying backward.

After taking down the bearded man with his pistol, Qing Deng turned around and rushed into the empty space created by the bearded man's fall.

"Saito! Over here!"

After reminding Saito, Aoto charged straight eastward.

Aoto's sudden change of direction left Saito completely bewildered.

Where exactly are you going?

Despite being extremely puzzled by Aoto's strange behavior, Saito obediently followed.

"Die! Traitor!"

Two warriors, one on each side, swung their swords at Qing Deng.

Saito quickly stepped forward, and he and Aoto simultaneously drew their swords from the left and right. Saito pierced the throat of the man on the left, while Aoto slashed open the abdomen of the man on the right.

After taking down the two men, Qing Deng suddenly changed direction again!

This time, he turned west and launched an attack towards the west.

Saito's brows furrowed uncontrollably.

Why are you rushing around like a headless fly? Where are you going?

He really wanted to question Qingdeng: What exactly are you doing?

However, being deeply entangled in enemy territory, Saito had no time to call out to Aoto or ask him questions.

He could only continue to silently follow Qingdeng's side.

Qing Deng maintained this rhythm of "suddenly changing direction from time to time," leading Saito to charge left and right through the enemy lines.

But gradually—Saito slowly noticed something amiss.

He began to realize that since he followed Qingdeng into the enemy ranks, the enemies he encountered... all seemed to be quite weak.

The enemies they encountered were all easy targets for both Aoto and Saito, who could be killed with a single strike.

Therefore, their raid was frighteningly successful.

Basically, wherever they went, the people there were hacked to pieces by the two of them.

Saito, vaguely realizing something, raised his gaze and, just like Komuro had previously discovered the effect of Aoto's troop deployment, cast an incredulous look at Aoto in front of him.

……

……

—The enemy in that direction seems pretty strong…

Qing Deng quickly scanned his surroundings.

The enemies on the left are weak!

With this thought in mind, Qing Deng quickly turned around and lunged at a very ugly, loser man on his left.

When the man saw Qing Deng suddenly rushing towards him, he hurriedly raised his knife to defend himself.

However, his swordsmanship was so poor that before he could even raise his sword, Qing Deng cleaved his head in two.

Ever since those guys in blood-red haoris suddenly attacked them, things have been happening to Qing Deng that he himself can't understand at all.

First, my mood became extremely calm.

Then, the field of vision suddenly becomes extremely wide, allowing you to clearly see the positions and movements of both sides on the battlefield.

At first, when he suddenly gained this inexplicable "overlooking" perspective, Qingdeng thought that he could only recognize the positions of the people around him more clearly.

But he later realized that what he saw was not limited to that.

His eyes, in a daze... could also discern the strength of everyone around him!

Or perhaps it's more accurate to say that one can "feel" it.

You can sense the strength of your teammates and enemies around you.

You can sense which direction the enemy is stronger from.

You can sense which direction the enemy is weaker.

It was this strange "intuition" that gave Aoto the confidence to command Komuro and others and turn the tide of the battle.

It was thanks to this "intuition" that Qingdeng was able to successfully adjust the deployment of the defense line, spreading the defensive forces reasonably evenly so that the defensive forces in each place on the defense line were just enough to block the enemy's attack.

It is precisely because of this "intuition" that Qingdeng is now able to move freely through the enemy lines as if they were nothing!

Qingdeng kept searching for weak points in the enemy formation. If he saw an enemy that was difficult to deal with, he would bypass it and focus on attacking the weaker ones.

Qingdeng's current "overlooking" perspective also plays a significant role at this moment. This perspective, which is like overlooking the battlefield, allows Qingdeng to clearly see which location is the best direction for attack.

Although Qingdeng's constant turning and detours made it seem as if he and Qingdeng were aimlessly circling in the enemy's territory, their terrifying record of being invincible was gradually having a terrifying effect.

To outsiders, Ao and Sai were practically possessed by Hachiman Daimyojin.

Wherever the two of them fought, the people there were defeated.

Those who are struck are destroyed! Those who are opposed are subdued!

No one can beat them!

No one can stop them!

Most of those who had initially been eager to intercept Qing and Zhai stopped in their tracks.

How are these two going to ambush and kill them?

Morale continued to plummet.

The fierce attacks by Qing and Zhai further exacerbated the chaos in their order.

The unorganized "rabble" nature of the Expeditionary Army was once again revealed.

Those who dared not approach Qing and Zhai stopped in their tracks and even tried to retreat.

Those who had the courage to step forward and confront Qing and Zhai were hindered by those whose courage had already been shattered, making it difficult for them to go forward and fight Qing and Zhai.

Hey! Get out of my way! Don't block my way!

Why are you backing away? You're blocking my way!

……

In such a chaotic battlefield, getting injured is inevitable – Qingdeng's right shoulder was just slashed, but he didn't feel any pain... This must be the pain-relieving effect of the adrenaline surge caused by "Lone Wolf".

Feeling neither pain nor fatigue, Qing Deng fought with increasing courage as the battle situation became more and more favorable to him!

On this turbulent battlefield, Qingdeng charged left and right, his sword flashing, his feet moving with the speed of the wind!

Faces contorted with rage, faces twisted with fear, corpses lying on the ground, gleaming knives and spears, clothes soaked in blood, bloodstains scattered everywhere... these images, intertwined and mixed together, swept across Qing Deng's field of vision.

Saito, who had already realized the reason why Aoto was charging around in the enemy ranks, no longer looked at Aoto with strange eyes.

Saito was actually exhausted. He had barely rested since the Expeditionary Force entered the camp, and had been fighting with his sword the whole time. His arms and legs were sore and aching, but he still gritted his teeth and tensed every nerve in his body, protecting Aoto's left side like a shadow.

With just the two of them, Aoto and Saito tore apart the enemy formation, which was as dense as clouds, from one end, throwing the enemy formation into chaos.

Looking at the increasingly chaotic enemy around him, Qing Deng thought to himself:

—That's about it...

As the words in his heart faded, Qing Deng raised his gaze and looked at Yamada, who was not far from him.

……

……

The look of joy that Yamada had shown when he saw Aoto running out to "die" was no longer visible on his face.

Watching his subordinates gradually crumble under Qing and Zhai's fierce attack, he slowly revealed an expression as if he had swallowed a fly.

But soon, his extremely ugly expression disappeared—it turned into an expression like he had eaten flies and excrement.

Because he suddenly noticed: these two guys that they couldn't stop no matter what they did... were getting closer and closer to him...?

Qing Deng kept attacking and charging around aimlessly. Although Yamada had been keeping an eye on Qing Deng's movements, he couldn't figure out where Qing Deng was going.

Only now did he begin to realize that Qing and Zhai were actually quite close to where he was...

A chill ran from Yamada's lumbar spine to the top of his head.

He suddenly realized something.

And in the next instant, his suspicion that had made him break out in a cold sweat became a reality.

Qing Deng, who had been weaving through his subordinates, suddenly changed direction.

It charged straight towards him!
