On the other side, Tatsumi shouted into the air.

"Tatsumi, don't worry, big brother will protect you."

Brand also lifted his invisible state and suddenly appeared in front of the four people. He smiled at Tatsumi beside him and said, "Don't worry!"

"Oh, it's Brand! It's been a long time!"

Liva suddenly raised his head, his eyes fell on Brand, and said with some emotion: "I didn't expect you to join the Night Raid Organization. I'm really surprised."

"Yes, it's been a long time. I never thought that the wise and brave general of the empire who refused to accept bribes would willingly serve as Esdeath's subordinate and become a cold-blooded murderer."

Brand's eyes met Liva's, their gazes level. He said self-deprecatingly, "My superior, General Liva! Back then, you were falsely accused and arrested because you refused to accept a bribe... I never thought you would become so cold-blooded today."

"General Liva? Liva, do you know him?!"

Niu and Daidas were slightly startled when they heard this. They looked at Brand, frowned, and asked, "I didn't expect you were a general in your early years! Was he once under your command?"

"Ok!"

Riva nodded, not hiding anything. Although he had begged Lady Esdeath not to reveal his past, wanting to bury that time in the dust, he hadn't expected to run into Brand today, nor had he expected his identity to be exposed, much less that he had imagined that the other party was the very rebel group he was trying to take down, the Night Assassination Organization.

"I'm not cold-blooded, but I've seen many things clearly. It's you, on the other hand. I didn't expect you to be the enemy we've been looking for, Brand... As my most capable subordinate, you've actually embarked on this crooked path."

Leva narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "I'm giving you a chance now. Leave Night Raid and join General Esdeath's army. Become her subordinate. On behalf of Lady Esdeath, I will spare your life today. After all, with your outstanding abilities, why would you want to be a killer hiding in the dark? It would be better to leave Night Raid, return to the Empire, and resume your position. Lady Esdeath is a good superior. She was the one who rescued me from prison."

Brand fell silent after hearing this.

"Big brother!"

Tatsumi's eyes widened, as if worried that Brand might suddenly be persuaded to leave the Night Raid Organization. He couldn't help but shout, "Brother, don't listen to that old man. They've killed so many people who didn't deserve to die. They're as cruel as tigers and leopards, and have done so many things that go against their conscience. Brother, you can't fall into the trap of dancing with them."

"Don't worry, Tatsumi. Big Brother is a man with a heart as firm as a rock."

Chapter 304: Outnumbered

Brand glanced at the agitated Tatsumi and smiled at Riva. "I'm sorry, General Riva, but once we've embarked on this path, there's no turning back. If we turn back now, it will be a dead end, with no good outcome. Furthermore, in Brand's mind, the Empire has long been rotten and ruined. Just because you refused to accept a bribe, you were framed and thrown into prison. From that moment on, I was completely disappointed with the Empire. So I left the army and joined the Revolutionary Army."

"In my eyes, the Revolutionary Army works tirelessly for the common people, while the Empire, on the other hand, is like a vampire, constantly torturing civilians... It's clearly a wealthy country, yet tens of thousands of civilians are homeless and can't even get a full meal. The common people don't need such a country, and neither do we. Therefore, I am willing to be the sharp end of a spear and kill this vampire, the Empire!"

"Since you are slaves of vampires... you should reflect on yourself."

"Brand!"

Upon hearing this, Riva's face darkened. He said coldly, "Even if the Empire is corrupt, it still holds the legitimacy. However, if you, the Revolutionary Army, go to war, you will surely be defeated. Because of Lady Esdeath's existence, no army in the world can defeat her head-on. Moreover, once the war breaks out, it will be the civilians who will suffer. Who should reflect on this? It's you, Brand!"

"So, there's nothing left to discuss? General Liva!"

Brand closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "General, you've taken care of me for so many years, and I'm grateful. But in today's battle, we're both fighting for our respective factions. Therefore, only one of Liva's forces can leave the Dragon Boat today!"

"Not bad!"

Upon hearing this, Liva's lips curled up slightly, and he said admiringly, "Brand, you are indeed my chosen successor. What a pity! If I were still a general of the Empire and you were still a soldier, I would have promoted you and eventually recommended you for generalship. Although you are now a member of the Night Raid Organization, I still look forward to fighting you and seeing if your strength has increased over the years."

"I won't let you down, Liva, the Red-backed Shrike!"

Brand summoned his own auxiliary weapon and said to Tatsumi with a serious face, "Brother, bear with me for a bit. I'll pick the two strongest ones, and the remaining one will be left to you. Do you have the confidence to deal with them, Tatsumi?"

"Brother, please rest assured. After so many days of training, my strength has made a great breakthrough. Leave that guy to me. I will ensure that the task is completed!"

Tatsumi took off his suit, drew his greatsword, and nodded.

"Well, please don't die!"

Brand said something to Tatsumi, then flew over to the other end of the dragon boat. General Liva and Niu saw this and rushed over. The former attacked head-on, while the latter leaped to the highest point of the dragon boat, playing a shrill whistle and using the hidden secret technique "Demon Summoning" to enhance the abilities of his two companions and hold them captive with a whisper.

the other side.

"Hey, you're a good guy, very worth destroying."

Daidas stared at Tatsumi and laughed sinisterly: "Hahaha... Kill!"

Whoosh!

Daidas's body disappeared in front of Tatsumi, and only the sound of rapid footsteps could be vaguely heard. Suddenly, he felt a sharp axe wind rising on his head. Tatsumi was stunned and quickly flew back.

boom!

A huge axe smashed the deck of the ship into pieces, but the end of the axe handle was caught by Daidas.

Almost!

This thought came to both of their minds.

The thought in Daidas' mind almost destroyed the opponent, splitting him in half with one axe and sending him to hell.

Tatsumi was thinking, he was almost split in half by the opponent's axe... No, I don't want to die. I promised everyone that I will not die. I want to protect everyone instead of needing others to protect me.

I want to be a hero who stands tall and proud, not a coward who is protected everywhere!

"It's really surprising. Even after being manipulated by Niu's music, you were able to dodge my attacks with your body's reaction. You're quite powerful, kid. But I don't know if you can dodge this move!"

Daidas smirked, pulled out his axe, and split it with both hands. He bent backwards with his chest expanded, and threw it towards Tatsumi. The two axes spun in the air at high speed like windmills, and suddenly arrived in front of Tatsumi.

hateful!

Tatsumi's pupils shrank, and his body couldn't keep up with the rhythm, so he could only swing his sword to block the opponent's attack head-on.

boom!

The collision of sword and axe produced a powerful sound of metal that was deafening.

Tatsumi took a few steps back, and another axe suddenly flew from his side in a perfect arc in the air, passing through his abdomen, leaving a large bloody mark and almost breaking his stomach and causing his intestines to spill out.

Wow!

Tatsumi suddenly fell to his knees, clutching his wound. His face was as pale as paper, and cold sweat dripped from the pain. He gritted his teeth and said, "If this continues, I'll be killed by the other party sooner or later."

"It's settled now. Your companions will be coming down to accompany you soon. Don't worry, you will definitely keep each other company, hahahaha!"

Daidas came up to Tatsumi, kicked him to the ground, kicked away the greatsword in his hand, and put the axe to Tatsumi's neck. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said with a sinister grin: "Although I don't have the same hobby as Niu, I really like to give the enemy the finishing blow, that is, to chop off the opponent's head... No matter what special imperial weapon the opponent has, if the head is cut off, he will die. Die!"

"Damn it, damn it!"

Tatsumi screamed. His body's speed and reaction slowed down one by one due to the control of Niu's music. Now, due to the pain, his lower body was paralyzed and he couldn't react at all.

"Tazmi!"

On the other side, Brand also found that Tatsumi was in trouble.

Chapter 305: Death of Brand

Brand was anxious, watching the excited smile on Daidas's face, and his huge axe raised high, chopped down at Tatsumi's neck. He roared, broke free from Liva, and had a lot of scars on his body.

He never turned around, his eyes fixed on Tatsumi, and he shouted, "Tatsumi, get out of the way!"

"Big brother!"

Tatsumi also wanted to dodge, but he didn't have the ability. He could only glance at Brand from a distance as he rushed over at full speed, and said with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, I couldn't fulfill our agreement!"

"Die!"

Daidas shouted loudly, and the axe fell on Tatsumi's neck. When he was about to chop off the opponent's neck, Brand had already rushed over, deflected the opponent's giant axe with his spear, and hugged Tatsumi's life.

"Big brother!"

Tatsumi originally thought that he was dead, but there was always a light at the end of the tunnel and he actually survived. He said excitedly.

thump!

Brand suddenly knelt down, unable to maintain his state of being haunted by evil spirits. Three bloody ice blades were stuck in his back. He spat out a mouthful of blood and said weakly, "Ahem... Tatsumi, I'm glad you're okay!"

"Brother, what's wrong with you!"

Tatsumi's pupils shrank, and he crawled over, hugged Brand, and yelled, "Don't die, you promised me that you haven't taught me your secret move yet, you are not allowed to die!"

"Brother, you have no chance now. I will pass this imperial weapon on to you. I hope you will make good use of it!"

Originally, with Brand's strength, he could easily handle Liva. Not a crushing defeat, but definitely easy. However, the moment Brand lost focus, Liva transformed his poisonous blood into ice blades and struck him. The poison took effect quickly, leaving him powerless to save himself.

Although the Haunted Demon possessed the ability to strengthen itself, it didn't mean it could block the venom's attack. Furthermore, with Brand's instructions to Move, the venom spread even faster, quickly reaching the heart and, through the heart's twisting zone, contaminating all blood.

Brand's ability to hold on until now was beyond Liva's expectations. He hadn't imagined that his physique was so strong that he could actually withstand the poisonous blood. Although he was close to death, Liva still admired him.

Moreover, if the other party had not been distracted, he would have been the one to die.

If he died, Naniu and Daidas would surely die at his hands soon after. What a terrifying guy. Yet, he was harmed by a idiotic teammate. If it weren't for Tatsumi, Brand wouldn't have died.

A burden, a useless burden, had killed a master who could even approach Lady Esdeath in hand-to-hand combat. Furthermore, Brand was very young; given time, he would likely become a formidable warrior.

It’s a pity that he couldn’t wait for that day to come. Liva shook his head secretly in his heart.

"Big brother!"

Holding Brand's hand, Tatsumi felt the presence of the evil spirit, as if it had penetrated deep into his soul. He was now the master of the evil spirit. Brand, on the other hand, was getting weaker and weaker, spitting out poisonous blood. He said weakly, "Come on, get rid of these impostors! I'll watch you win, make good use of the evil spirit... Uh, I'm so sleepy, I'm going to rest for a while, and tell me when you win!"

"Big brother!"

Tatsumi's face was pale, and he was crying so hard that it made him cry. He choked and yelled, "You haven't taught me how to use this evil spirit that's haunting me yet. Don't go to sleep yet!"

"What a pig teammate!"

Liva and the other two had already formed their impression of Tatsumi. If it weren't for this guy, Brand might have won a resounding victory long ago. How could he have ended up in this situation now? What a pity!

"Daidas, kill him and send him back to his companions!"

Liva said to Daidas beside him, "Kill them and deal with that minister, and our mission will be completed. We can report to Lord Esdeath and make amends for our previous mistakes!"

"It's just right. I was stopped by this guy Brand just now and didn't kill him. It's good to finish him off now!"

Daidas nodded, swung his numb arm, raised the massive axe, and slashed at Tatsumi. Tatsumi felt a gust of wind behind his head, and instinctively, clutching Brand's body, he dove to the side. A loud crash echoed in his ears, and the deck shattered, revealing a massive hole with a massive axe lodged in it.

Tatsumi recognized the owner of the axe at a glance. It was Daidas, one of the three beast warriors who wanted to chop off his head.

The other person was now smiling at Tatsumi, a hideous smile, like an evil ghost crawling out of hell.

"He actually dodged it. What a great reaction speed. But unfortunately, he still died!"

Daidas raised the axe high and chopped it straight down on Tatsumi's head. The latter stared at the sharp axe with wide eyes. Several hairs on his forehead were broken. He swallowed his saliva subconsciously: "It's over now, there is no chance! If only I were stronger, big brother wouldn't have to die. It's all my fault. Why am I so weak? Why can't I be as strong as big brother and big brother Moye? Why... Big brother Moye is right, I'm a scumbag, a terrible scumbag. I want others to protect me every day. Last time it was Akame, this time it's big brother... Trash, Tatsumi, you are a waste, you are a scumbag!"

Tatsumi roared, and the axe stopped. The opponent seemed to be frightened by Tatsumi's sudden psychotic state. However, the opponent quickly recovered and chopped down the axe again.

However, the axe could not strike any further in the air.

Because a man who frightened him appeared before him, his face turned pale and he kept backing away, staring at him with fear. Later, Liva and Niu also backed away in fear after seeing the man's face.

"Zha Zha Mi, what happened to Brand?"

"Brother Moye, he's dead!"

Upon hearing this, Zha Zha Mi raised his head and his face lit up with joy, but then it sank.

Chapter 306: Killing Three Dog Warriors

"I was the one who killed my eldest brother."

Zha Zha Mi hugged Brand's cold body and cried loudly, "If I hadn't been useless, he wouldn't have died! Yes, if it weren't for me, he wouldn't have been killed by the other party. It was all for saving me!"

Brand is dead!

Zhu Moye's eyes fell on the wound on Brand's back. The blood on it had turned black. It was obvious that he died of poisoning. What was going on? Didn't his imperial weapon, being possessed by evil spirits, strengthen his defense?

How did this poison penetrate his armor? !

Pity!

Zhu Moye shook his head. He had seen Brand's strength before. While not as good as his own, he was still a formidable warrior, ranking among the top three in overall strength during the Night Raid. However, in close combat, his strength was close to that of Super S Queen Esdeath, making him a formidable opponent.

Of course, this is for ordinary people. To Zhu Moye, Brand's strength is only several times stronger than Zha Zha Mi, and he is far from being his opponent.

Zhu Moye had come here at Najeshitan's request, as she felt something was amiss with this escort mission. Why would the other party assassinate someone on a dragon boat? That was completely out of character. The encounter between the other team, Chi Tong and Lubbock, confirmed her suspicions. This might be an ambush, a trap set for Night Raid to fall into.

However, Najeshitan had other matters to attend to, so she had to ask Zhu Moye, who was idle at home flirting with Leone and Maine, to help. Of course, Zhu Moye would not refuse Najeshitan's request. After all, Najeshitan was one of his women.

So, Zhu Moye came quickly. However, he was still a step too late. Brand was already dead, and Zha Zha Mi was injured and disabled again, losing his fighting ability. Of course, if Zhu Moye hadn't come, then it wouldn't just be Brand who died, but also this piece of Zha Zha Mi.

Moreover, it was really fate that I met these three three-dog warriors again.

"Your Majesty the Emperor!"

Liva was the first to react. Seeing how familiar the other party was with that scumbag, he wondered if the other party was planning to meddle in other people's business again! He smiled bitterly and said, "I wonder what the Human Emperor is doing here."
