Chapter 322 The Mysterious President of the Black Dragon Society
Two of the Koga Sannin came, and even the "Kage-level" ninja Kato Duanzo, who had disappeared for a long time, came. This lineup is enough to assassinate any daimyo in Yamagaku.
Coupled with the troops that may be besieged on the main road, it can be said that the Takeda shogunate is bound to win this time.
Unfortunately, they miscalculated the strength of Su Lun's side.
In other words, Miko Mifu did not expect such a variable around him, a Chijo who could tame the demon sword Zongzheng, and a Su Lun.
Su Lun ran all the way, thinking about the stakes along the way.
A princess of the contemporary Saio has almost nothing to do with the right to inherit the imperial power. Then Takeda Shino took so much pains to kill her, most likely it was for the "Dark Sun Festival".
Su Lun was also very curious, what kind of "role" will Yuzi play in the sacrifice, so that the shogunate must kill her?
Over there, in the battle between Chijo and the "Shadow Buddha" Kato Danzoro, even the Jōnin was not qualified to intervene, so Su Lun's run attracted almost all the Koga ninjas to chase after him.
In fact, it wasn't aimed at him.
It was because of the "God Fu Miko" who followed him.
The target is there, those people are naturally chasing after it.
However, upon taking a closer look, the look in the eyes of the "Royal Son" beside Su Lun was a little awkward.
The sound of breaking through the air behind him was endless.
All kinds of projectiles, ninja darts, kunai, poisonous needles. Pass by.
Although the ninjas like Shan Yin do not have advanced firearms, they also have strange fire systems.
Although these firearms that fire ammunition that takes half a minute to load at a time are very backward, their power is not small at all. The burning of those secret gunpowder will produce poisonous smoke and some special shrapnel, the lethality is no worse than the grenade.
Thanks to Su Lun's rough skin and thick flesh, these shrapnel can't break through his [Rune King] body shield, so there is no danger.
There are dead birds sharing their vision in the sky, and Su Lun is not worried about being surrounded.
He kept changing directions in the jungle, always avoiding the encirclement of the enemy.
But it was also dangerous, and was almost overtaken by the enemy several times.
actually.
It's not that Su Lun has no chance to get rid of the pursuers behind him.
After he advanced, the curse characteristic of the eight-armed spider lance was also enhanced, and now the ability to move in mountains has also been greatly improved, and the speed is not inferior to those ninjas who are good at various evasion techniques.
What's more, there is still spatial displacement.
He didn't run away with all his strength, just because he deliberately wanted to give some illusions to the pursuers behind him, making them think that he could catch up.
After all, in Plan B, he, who is good at displacement, is just a "bait".
Because, the "God Fu Miko" beside him is a fake.
It was an illusion created by the puppet and [Robert's monocle].
Having been together day and night these days, Su Lun is naturally clear about the appearance and figure of Miko Mifuko, so the illusioned appearance can naturally be confused with the real one.
What's more, there is a "substitute paper man" with a royal child on the puppet, and the breath makes the ninjas of the perception department unable to tell the real from the fake.
As for the real body, he had already taken advantage of the chaos and hid himself in the melee.
The longer Su Lun dragged the pursuers, the more time Yuzi would have to escape.
But it was a fake after all, after running for a while, it still showed its feet.
There are many pursuers, no matter how careful Su Lun is, he can take care of himself, but he can't take care of the "Royal Son".
The methods of the two special jounin are not simple, they also seem to see something tricky, and tried many times. Finally, the "Ghost Hand" Ueno Sasaki blew a ventilation spell, and the "Royal Son" couldn't avoid it, and one of his legs was cut off.
Looking at the broken leg of "Oko" gushing blood like a fountain, Kaoru Kobe, who is good at illusion, "Sakura Hime" finally saw the problem, and shouted: "Damn it, I fell for it! That's an illusion!"
Hearing this, dozens of ninjas stood there dumbfounded.
There was a suffocating embarrassment in the air.
The corners of Su Lun's mouth twitched slightly when he heard that the trick was broken by humanity. Obviously, the phantom of his blood spurting is quite real, and he doesn't know how it was discovered.
However, it has been enough for so long.
Calculating the time is about the same, Miko should have escaped safely by now.
In the current situation, these Koga ninjas in front of them should be in a dilemma.
With the target gone, it didn't make much sense for them to continue chasing Su Lun.
But it seems that it doesn't make much sense to go back.
The little old man Sasaki made a decisive decision, and said lightly: "Xun, take someone back to find someone! I'll kill him!"
Kobe Kaoru thought of his previous experience of fighting against Su Lun in Zhujian Village, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes.
She knew that the guy in front of her didn't look too strong, but her methods were wicked.
It seems to be stronger now than before.
But now is not the time to say more, she said lightly: "Yes! Senior Ueno, please be careful."
As she said that, she turned around and chased back towards the original road with the people.
In a blink of an eye, among the dozen or so Koga ninjas, only the old man with a bad nose was left.
The enemy lost their superiority in numbers, and Su Lun's pressure was suddenly emptied.
The guy in front of him is good at wind-type ninjutsu, and he can run fast. He is one of the three ninjas, and his combat power is at the level of a fifth-tier professional.
Normally, Su Lun's safest way to deal with it at present is to escape with all his strength.
With his spatial displacement ability, it is not difficult to escape.
However, after hesitating for a moment, he stopped in his tracks.
Su Lun thought of the scene where Chijo faced Danzo Kato before.
Even in the face of an enemy stronger than herself, she is fearless.
The picture of standing proudly holding a sword will last for a long time.
Some thoughts in Su Lun's mind were also eager to move.
Mr. Jing once commented on him, his character is too cautious and safe, but he lacks a bit of "will" and "qi".
That's probably what's happening right now.
Thinking of this, Su Lun looked at the old ninja in front of him.
He has never faced a strong man of this level alone, and the pressure is as real as it is.
The odds of winning are slim.
But if he avoids the war, he will definitely not be able to "win".
Such a good opponent is rare.
try?
He grinned his teeth, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a sinister grin.
With this thought, the fighting spirit emerged.
The moment Su Lun decided to stay, he felt the real sense of oppression from the old man in front of him.
This is a sense of crisis that I have never felt at all after chasing him for so long.
The murderous aura is compelling, making people's hairs explode.
It's been a long time since I felt the dance of swords.
Su Lun's body was very happy with this feeling, and faintly excited.
Sasaki, who was on the opposite side, was a little surprised when he saw Su Lun standing there, and snorted coldly.
Looking again, there was wind under his feet, and with a sound of "piu~", the whole person turned into a phantom and rushed towards him.
Su Lun led people into the dense forest, and suddenly raised his hand to the chessboard, and a beam of light shrouded Sasaki's body.
Looking at it again, the surrounding area has become a black and white chessboard space.
Since you have decided to have a good fight, don't let the outside world disturb you.
Seeing himself trapped in the chessboard space, Sasaki's eyes turned cold, but he was not panicked.
"Ninja Law Wind Barrier Barrier!"
"Profound Truth Puppet Theater!"
Both sides did not show weakness, and sealed at the same time.
Just when the alchemy formation lit up and a huge cross slowly condensed in the sky, Su Lun felt that the air around his body instantly became as viscous as asphalt, and it was still solidifying rapidly. This made him move his hands and feet, and his body seemed to be bound by a thousand catties.
"Range control? What a clever response."
Su Lun's eyes flickered.
This Sasaki also used the ninjutsu of large-scale control. In this way, for both parties, it is really not sure who will take advantage of the limited space.
Su Lun didn't panic at all, raised his hand [Runed Human Leather Umbrella] and propped it up with a bang, and the double surgeon's seal changed again.
But at this moment, Sasaki didn't even give him a chance to form a seal, his figure flickered several times, and he was already approaching. The steel claws in his hand flashed coldly, and he grabbed it as soon as he grabbed it.
"So fast!"
With a sharp edge, Su Lun hurriedly retreated a few meters, watching his afterimage in front of him being cut into several pieces by sharp claws.
Although he dodged the blow, at this moment, the hairs on his back suddenly exploded, and he thought, "That's not right!"
Vision can be deceived, but in the perception of the soul, he can clearly perceive that the old man in front of him instantly becomes a phantom.
Even without turning around, he clearly knew that the guy had appeared behind him!
"What a speed!"
Su Lun's heart trembled.
[Flash] can quickly avoid danger, but it is not without interval time. The enemy just grasped this point, and even after the one hit missed, they continued to use killing moves one after another.
This movement technique is impressively the "Second False Flash" in ninjutsu!
The pressure on his back was like a mountain falling, making Su Lun instantly feel the crisis of death.
When encountering such a real master, even if you have all kinds of means, the threat is limited.
Because, the other party won't let you use it at all!
Su Lun wanted to use the rune black umbrella to strip away the opponent's perception, but he didn't expect to be hit hard by this before the Warlock seal in his hand was formed.
He caught the opponent's whereabouts, but his body didn't have time to react, so he had to change his handprints and put his hands together: "Puppet trick!"
Almost at the same time, there was a slight cutting sound, and the body of "Su Lun" was suddenly cut into three sections by the sharp steel claws.
The opponent made two shots, and broke his two-handed life-saving means. Su Lun also felt his scalp tingling.
And almost at the same time, Su Lun, who was a few meters away by relying on a puppet, changed his expression again.
Because at this moment, he saw a second "Sasaki" suddenly appear beside him!
There is no soul fluctuation, only "Qi".
"Wind Shadow Clone!"
Su Lun's eyes were horrified, and he immediately realized what was going on.
This old man deserves to be the top at this moment, killer after ring.
These three killing moves actually took only a second or two, leaving no time for people to react at all!
At the same time as it was discovered, the avatar had already launched an attack.
At this extremely critical moment, Su Lun pulled his five fingers, and several silk threads suddenly condensed, pulling his body away a little.
But even so, the grab still hit him on the back.
"Crunch."
There was a piercing sound like a broach cutting metal, and Su Lun flew upside down.
Although this grab didn't break through the [Rune King Kong]'s defense, but the huge force penetrated into his lungs, and the impact made his blood surge.
Unable to hold back during the inverted flight, a mouthful of old blood spewed out.
After a face-to-face meeting, Su Lun almost hiccupped on the spot, but when he met a real master, Su Lun deeply understood his own shortcomings, "The body is still too weak."
The nerve response is sufficient, but the muscle response speed is completely unable to keep up.
I thought he was physically strong among the puppet masters, but looking at it now, he was still far behind in front of real masters.
Life and death are often between a thought.
The majestic puppeteer didn't even use a single puppet and was almost killed.
This lesson is not light.
Thanks to his many means of life-saving, as an ordinary puppet master, even at the fifth level, he would have already captured the soul of the dead at this moment.
A thought flashed in Su Lun's mind, and his body flew upside down.
At this moment, with the power of flying backwards, he finally pulled out three strange puppets in the air and protected them by his side.
This is a rune puppet that is processed after the fourth level of advancement, and barely has the fourth level of combat power.
To deal with this kind of agility opponent, the tactics of low-level puppet piles will not have an advantage at all. Even if the mechanical armor is taken out, it is useless except for being beaten passively!
For a moment, the tactics in Su Lun's mind began to spin.
"Ghost Hand" Sasaki was also very surprised to see Su Lun dodging three ultimate moves in succession. As an assassin for many years, he has killed too many enemies stronger than the man in front of him. This person actually escaped?
The high-explosive Taijutsu puts a lot of burden on the body. Sasaki used the "Second False Flash", and he has no ability to use the three-in-one killing move just now in a short period of time.
But his movements only stopped for a moment, and his whole body was like a ray of breeze, disappearing in place in an instant.
Su Lun looked at the scattered light and shadow in front of him, and before he had time to catch his breath, the eight-armed spider lance behind him yanked, "Secret method of silk control, flower waterfall!"
In an instant, the silk thread like a white waterfall suddenly condensed, surrounding him tightly.
This move is for defense, and it is also a trap!
But since the reaction was so quick, the figure rushed in first.
"Crunch."
There was another piercing sound of metal cracking.
Before Su Lun could avoid it, he felt a burning pain in his chest.
Although the steel claw wrapped in the cutting cyclone didn't cut him into several pieces, it also left three wounds with visible bloodstains on the golden lacquer skin.
"This steel claw is also a famous ninja tool!"
A thought flashed in Su Lun's mind, he endured the severe pain and pulled the thread violently. But looking again, that Sasaki suddenly dropped two smoke bombs, the person had disappeared, and he was not given a chance to fight back.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two bangs.
Purple poisonous smoke filled the air in an instant.
Su Lun changed his clothes with a trick, and instantly put on the crow's mouth mask.
In order to make the other party feel less comfortable, he also threw two gas bombs.
The sound of "hissing" gas leakage was endless, and in an instant, the huge chessboard space was covered by two kinds of smoke, purple and black.
The other party was silent for a while, and it was obvious that he was still holding back his big move.
Su Lun didn't dare to delay any longer, and the Warlock Seal in his hand quickly condensed and changed.
He didn't think that the other party lost his vision and couldn't catch his position!
This top ninja must have extremely sharp senses of hearing, smell, and touch.
You must strip this guy's perception to have a chance of winning!
Only rune black umbrellas can be used.
This was the only feasible tactic that Su Lun thought of after a moment of deduction in his mind.
Otherwise, even if he took out the black sickle, the biggest trump card in his hand, it would not change anything!
As Su Lun expected, even in the handprint of his coagulation technique, Sasaki was not idle.
Just after a few breaths, I heard the horrible wind sound like howling ghosts and wolves in the chessboard space.
"Is it really a ranged wind spell?"
Su Lun's expression was serious, but he was not surprised at all.
There is no way to avoid the wind-type ninja in a confined space!
If he were Na Sasaki, he would naturally choose to use this method.
"Ninja Art: Yamagata Porcupine Technique!"
The Warlock Seal in Su Lun's hand didn't stop, but at this moment, he suddenly felt countless wind blades cutting towards him.
Even though the waterfall-like strands of hair were woven into a wall to block them, they were like paper paste in front of the wind blade, and they were smashed to pieces in a blink of an eye.
"Excellent cutting ability"
Su Lun felt that the line wall was cut instantly, and he sighed in his heart.
This is much stronger than the "wind element cutting" he knows.
The wind blade rushed in through the gap in the silk thread in a blink of an eye, and "scratched" on Su Lun's body with a sharp sound that made people's scalp tingle.
Bang, clang, clang, clang
He looked through the gap and saw a strange phantom of the head of a wild boar monster in the sky. That pig's head spit out the evil wind, and there was a faint sign of blowing away the cross of his puppet theater!
This is the order of the technique is suppressed, and there is a special penetrating power
Severe pain struck, and Su Lun felt as if countless steel knives were scraping his bones.
He clenched his teeth and chose to resist the technique.
This evil wind seems to be endless, and it doesn't mean to stop at all. Without the "Golden Dragon Pattern" inscribed in the past two days, even the [Vajra] secret method condensed by the fifth-order law would not be able to survive.
Just when Su Lun felt that he was going to be "Lingchi" after his collapse, the last Warlock Seal in his hand was successfully condensed.
"It's done!"
Su Lun was overjoyed.
If he was interrupted again this time, he might have to choose to run away immediately.
Fortunately, as soon as this set of complicated Warlock Seals was completed, Su Lun's expression turned serious, and his aura suddenly rose again. Behind him, the phantom of death rose suddenly, and the breath of death swept the entire space like a tide.
He murmured, "Dark Realm·Night Curtain!"
This spell is complete, with the black umbrella around him as the center, the pitch-like eerie pitch-black tide swept the entire chessboard space.
Countless grim-faced resentful spirits rushed towards Sasaki who was hiding in the wind not far away.
Within the restricted space, it is also an unavoidable range attack.
The night covered his eyes, and Sasaki instantly felt that he had lost his vision.
Not only has the vision been stripped away, but even the sense of hearing and touch are gone!
There is endless darkness in front of his eyes, as if he has stepped into hell, and countless evil spirits are stretching out his hands, trying to pull him down the endless abyss
Sasaki was startled.
He may become a "special Jonin" and has naturally undergone all kinds of harsh training. Being controlled by this kind of spirit did not catch him by surprise. It was the first time he noticed it, he bit his tongue violently one by one, and the perception was clear for a moment.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood, took out a ninja scroll and crushed it, before the five senses were completely deprived, he made sword fingers with both hands, and yelled: "Spiritualism·Fengshen Yimulian!"
As soon as this ninjutsu came out, there was a strong wind in the closed chessboard space.
Su Lun's egg hurt immediately.
Because he once again felt the breath of the will of the gods coming.
It's faint, but real.
Don't think about it, the guy on the other side must have summoned some "monster" or "god" condensed with the power of faith.
(PS. Shanyin’s gods are hundreds of thousands, not gods)
Sure enough, when he looked again, the strong wind flew sand and rocks, and the poisonous gas was also sucked in. The vision was clear, and then a whirlwind quickly formed.
The whirlpool in the sky became bigger visibly with the naked eye, and then just turned into a terrifying giant eye with a diameter of nearly ten meters.
Su Lun opened his left eye, turned his light, and looked over.
【Fengshen Yimulian】
Detailed Explanation: One of the thousands of gods condensed in Shanyin's beliefs, he is the god of wind. He can use the wind as his eye to perceive the shape of objects; he is afraid of the air of calamus.
Seeing this, Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's within an acceptable range."
If it wasn't for the fact that his will wasn't too strong, he would have already unlocked the space and slipped away.
Many of Shanyin's "mountain gods" and "water gods" are not real gods, they are "special monsters". There are high and low strengths and weaknesses.
Few people know about those weaknesses, except for onmyojis and witches who are proficient in ghosts.
Especially people outside Shanyin.
But Su Lun, who has the omniscient pupil, can be regarded as an advantage.
Looking at the identified information, he felt relieved.
There are still a lot of materials that Yuzi gave him before, and there are quite a lot of "calamus" left.
Moreover, he also clearly grasped one point: "wind" can only perceive solid objects!
Sasaki's eyes were dull, and his pupils couldn't focus. Looking at the main body, he was indeed affected by the "Night Realm".
But this guy didn't know how to regain control of his body, that is, the moment the psychic came out of the eye of the storm in the sky, his momentum soared by several tenths, and he rushed towards Su Lun without any hesitation.
He also knew that the winner must be determined as soon as possible.
It's a pity that when night fell, Su Lun was given time to breathe.
He [Flash] dodges calmly.
At the moment of space displacement, several space scrolls exploded in the chessboard space at the same time, and hundreds of puppets appeared out of thin air.
Humanoid objects are everywhere.
The wind can perceive the shape of an object, but it cannot perceive whether it is a living thing.
At this moment, Sasaki suddenly froze, apparently unable to tell where the target was.
Seeing this, Su Lun was overjoyed, "Sure enough!"
At this moment, he finally saw a chance to defeat the enemy.
Sasaki didn't know why there were so many "people" suddenly appeared, but the movements in his hands didn't stop. He made a ninjutsu seal: "Ninjutsu Peacock Dance!"
With this perfect ninjutsu, dense wind blades resembling peacock feathers condensed behind him, and with a finger ahead, "嗖嗖嗖" flew towards the humanoid objects that filled the space like a dart.
The ranged attack cut through the puppet group in an instant, but it was a pity that there was no hearing and vision. Even if the wind blade hit Su Lun, it was difficult for Sasaki to tell which one was the main body.
What's more, Su Lun won't give him a chance to tell the difference. Every time it flashes, a bunch of puppets must appear at the same time.
He hid in the pile of puppets and started to fight back.
After half an hour of bitter fighting, the result of the battle was finally revealed.
Ueno Sasaki, one of the Koga Sannin's "Ghost Hands", died on the spot.
But it is undeniable that this guy is really strong.
After the special psychic came out of that [Fengshen Yimulian], this guy's wind escape ninjutsu was even more outrageous.
Even after being stripped of his five senses by Su Lun, his fighting power is still quite strong.
Careful thinking, rich combat experience, and various tactics to lure the enemy. If you seize a little chance, you will deliver a fatal blow.
Under normal circumstances, even if a Tier 5 professional encounters him, few of them will survive.
It's a pity that Su Lun is as calm as a machine.
He is the kind of person who will never make mistakes or make mistakes in battle!
From the moment Sasaki couldn't distinguish Su Lun's body, the outcome of the battle was actually doomed.
No matter how strong, human strength is limited.
Su Lun didn't rush to make a move, and didn't touch it head-on. Instead, he used all kinds of puppets and living corpses to consume him, without giving him a chance to breathe.
The two fought wits and bravery, and after several trials, Sasaki gradually despaired in front of an opponent who could not make mistakes at all, and eventually exhausted himself.
Su Lun beheaded him with a black scythe.
Su Lun looked at the messy chessboard space, and then at the two corpses on the ground, full of emotion.
He lost hundreds of puppets, and he also got wounds all over himself, so he killed them in a thrilling manner.
This is also the first time for him to kill a fifth-tier combat power with his own strength.
In this battle, it can be said that all means were used, relying on the large number of cursed objects, this was a lucky victory.
Luck is a big part of it.
If he really wanted to fight head-on, Su Lun was still far behind.
But for alchemists, there is nothing shameful.
Making good use of cursed objects is also the combat effectiveness of alchemists.
This battle has gained a lot.
However, shortcomings have also been exposed.
Darkness is not enough
not enough defense
The body doesn't react enough either.
The "general attack" method is not lethal enough.
The puppeteer is not enough to save his life against a professional who can stand out.
In an instant, the scene of the battle just now flashed through Su Lun's mind, and he was fully aware of his shortcomings.
Fortunately, knowing the shortcomings, there is also a direction for enhancement in the future.
But right now is not the time to resume the battle, he calmed down and peeled off the gray mist from the corpse.
"You stripped the soul of 'Ueno Sasaki', and you gained a lot of 'ninjutsu' inheritance knowledge"
"You have comprehended the 'Jiahe Fengdun Secret Technique'."
"You have obtained the knowledge and understanding of the 'Shan Yin Shen Dao'"
"You know some top-secret information: 'The Black Dragon will have a very mysterious president'."
"."
Su Lun originally thought that he would be able to peel off some profound "comprehension of the law of the wind element".
But obviously, he thought too much.
Shanyin's ninjas are also god believers, and their ninjutsu only has a few formulas and ninjutsu seals, which is much simpler than the process of alchemists casting spells. But it is such a "rough" technique that has produced incredible effects.
The reason is the power of the god system of his belief.
With this separation, Su Lun also understood the entire ninjutsu system, mostly ignoring its rationale and only talking about its use.
Without knowing the principle, he, an alchemist, can use very few ninjutsu.
Even the few that can be used are far less powerful than ninjas.
However, some experiences and perceptions are interlinked, and they can be regarded as gaining a lot.
The most important thing is that Su Lun also obtained a piece of explosive information from Sasaki's memory: the president of the Black Dragon Society is actually the "No. 1 beauty in the world" Yute Yeji? !
This is completely connected with what Qianjo and the others had guessed before.
The assassination failed, and a "mysterious man" appeared behind the shogunate Nobuno Takeda to turn the tide.
Now that the Black Dragon Society is actually controlled by this "Yote Ye Ji", everything makes sense.
But how could a geisha be the boss of the Black Dragon Club?
Moreover, it seems to have a lot to do with the Takeda Shogunate!
Why is she?
She has been hiding for so many years without being discovered, what is she plotting?
Too many doubts, Su Lun didn't think about it.
This answer can only be found in Edo.
As soon as the chessboard space was solved, he quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests.
