Chapter 453: Decision
The words echoed faintly in the lobby, and the already solemn atmosphere immediately became even heavier after Saya said such a sentence. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Saya-sama, what do you mean by that?"
"By severed hand, do you mean the severed hand of the [Ibaraki Boy]?"
"However, shouldn't that severed arm be kept by its owner, His Excellency Tsuna Watanabe?"
As the oldest existence present, Fujiwara Baochang was also the first to ask after hearing the news.
After all, this is no small matter.
Originally, because of an accident at the beginning, the strength of that [Ghost King] was weakened by means of breaking his arm.
Now, if they are really taken back by the other party, then the resistance to their actions in the future will become even greater.
"You're right, General Fujiwara. However, the truth is that last night, Ibaraki did use some means to bypass the enchantment sense, and then tricked his severed arm back from the hands of His Excellency Watanabe Tsuna. ā
"Although His Excellency Watanabe Tsunade immediately went after him, but, unfortunately, the strength of the [Ghost King] is known to all of you."
"If you use that power to escape, almost no one can catch up."
Saya explained very calmly, and she also understood how serious this matter was.
After all, the [Ghost King] with one arm missing is much easier to deal with than the [Ghost King] with a fully recovered one.
They also had this idea in mind, so they wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to prepare for the crusade.
What I never expected was that the other party would use a strategy to infiltrate [New Kyoto]. From this point of view, perhaps it would have been better to choose to seal or destroy the severed arm in the first place, rather than hand it over to someone for safekeeping because of over-prudence.
"I'm really sorry! All of this is a relationship that is too careless, which will lead to such a situation! No matter what kind of punishment is underneath, I am willing to accept it, but please do not implicate the [Genjia], because this is the responsibility of the next person! ā
Even Tsuna Watanabe, who has a relatively cold personality, knew that he had caused a "big disaster" last night, and immediately came out to confess.
How could he have imagined that the [Ghost King] would pretend to be his uncle to deceive himself, and take the opportunity to steal the severed arm.
However, this is also to blame for his lack of cultivation, and he can't notice this kind of thing.
Committing such a mistake that would definitely implicate the subsequent crusade, he really felt that he should be punished.
"Well, Ah Gang....... don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself."
"You know, you're my retainer, so no matter what, as the head of the family, I also have a responsibility."
"So, if you want to blame, please also join me Yuan Yoriguang, after all, this is the responsibility of our [Yuan Family]."
"Lai, Laiguang-sama!"
Looking at Minamoto Yorimitsu in order to protect himself as a retainer, even the poker-like face of Tsunade Watanabe was a little moved.
He knew that his general was younger than himself in terms of age, but how to explain it.
In short, the people among the Four Heavenly Kings seem to be cared for by each other as juniors.
Even in this moment of trouble, the other party stood up, and perhaps, this is the reason why the four will follow her.
Well, of course, that's just his own idea.
As far as the actual situation is concerned, although Yuan Laiguang thinks that he has the instinct to care about his subordinates, but more often, he wants to establish a better image in front of Bai Ye, and the proportion of this part is relatively large.
"Oh, if that's the case, isn't the [Gen family] going to bear the full responsibility for this incident!"
"That's right, General Fujiwara. If you have any opinions, please come to me, the head of the family! ā
Even if they are both active factions, the [Fujiwara family] and the [Gen family] do not seem to be as harmonious as they seem.
At this time, the exit asked this, maybe Fujiwara Baochang did it on purpose.
It's just that the two people who are talking to are the big nobles in the [New Kyoto], and although there are other nobles here, they don't dare to make a statement in the face of these two.
To hold the [Genjia] responsible? No kidding!
Even if it has nothing to do with the [Gen family], even if it is Watanabe Tsuna this person, they will not pursue anything, because the other party is a very valuable combat power.
Therefore, those who will talk about this kind of thing, except for those who are really looking for fault, are the only ones who have a bad taste.
It just so happens that Mr. Fujiwara is actually such a boring person.
"Alas...... Really, I said ........."
Seeing that the two people in the lobby started their daily targeting again, Saya also sighed helplessly, and just wanted to reveal this matter and discuss countermeasures, but another voice sounded abruptly, interrupting her next speech.
"Well, let's talk about responsibility or something. Besides, don't you really think that if that one, uh, yes, Ibaraki boy is missing an arm, our odds of victory will increase a lot. ā
"After all, you know that, too. The strength of the [Ghost King] is far greater than that of the ordinary [Ghost Clan], even the evil ghosts of the [Black Horn] are vulnerable in front of the [Ghost King]. ā
"If this is the case, does it mean that from the very beginning, our enemies have been almost strong; Is it despairing? ā
"So, what's the point of arguing here about what the other party will get stronger?"
"If you have this time, you might as well think about how you can live longer and be more realistic in the face of that kind of enemy, you say?"
Bai Ye's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
There's no way, if it's an ordinary guy who says something like this with a hint of annoyance, it's natural to be angry with everyone.
However, they did not dare in the face of the white night.
Not only because of the strength of the other party, but also because of the "behavior" of the other party in the past. These had to make them cautious in the face of the white night.
"Oh~! It's really an interesting remark.,[Shinsengumi]'s [Martial God] brother.ć However, are you so sure that the strength of the [Ghost King] can make us all daunted? You know, we still have one of us who has chopped off each other's arms! ā
Fujiwara turned his gaze to the white night and asked the other party with a certain funny smile.
"If this kind of thing happens, you can ask the person in person to find out."
"Hmm...... That one, huh! It's Tsunade Watanabe, isn't it? ā
"I just want to ask you one question, when you cut off the arm of the Ibaraki boy, did the other party really move?"
"No ......."
It seems that he didn't expect Hakuya to come out at this time, Watanabe Tsunade was slightly stunned, but he also answered the other party's question immediately.
"At that time, Ibaraki just pretended to be a woman, infiltrated [New Kyoto], and happened to meet Zaixia."
"And the one who sensed the clue was cutting off one of his arms when the other party was not paying attention."
"However, perhaps because the other party was already injured, and the movement of the battle attracted other people to come, Ibaraki didn't stay long, so he left directly."
"If the other party hadn't been careless at that time, it is estimated that he would have become a corpse a long time ago."
"Because, at that time, just by virtue of the breath, you could feel it below, it was an inhuman existence, an opponent that could not be matched by manpower."
A wry smile of some shame, Watanabe Tsunada's face was slightly bitter.
It was precisely because he was intimidated by the strength of the other party that he would have been working hard to train himself since then.
However, after all, he is just a human being, and now, although his strength has increased a lot, he can't fight with that [Ghost King] for a long time.
If there is anyone among the Four Heavenly Kings who can truly match the strength of that one, it is most likely to be Jin Shi.
It's a pity, but that's the limit of ordinary people.
"You see, I'm not saying anything wrong."
Bai Ye looked at the troublesome old man with a smile, and replaced the topic of punishment just now with another one, and transferred it to himself.
"Humph! In that case, so what? If you mean that, shouldn't our action also be canceled, in order to prevent everyone from dying in vain! ā
"Well, I didn't say that. Rather, the action should not be canceled just like that, but because it is an opportunity to start quickly! ā
"What?!" xn
Bai Ye's words instantly made those nobles and onmyoji explode.
After all, according to Bai Ye's previous remarks, they were completely unworthy of mentioning for the [Ghost King], so why did they rush to death?
"What do you mean by that?"
Fujiwara Baochang's eyes narrowed, and his face asked with a somewhat serious expression.
"What do you mean? Literally, of course. ā
"You see, because of the relationship between the severed hand and the Ibaraki boy, with the other party's kind of existence that dares to use stratagems and sneaks into [New Kyoto] alone, he must have absolute confidence in his own strength."
"Although he lost an arm due to carelessness at the beginning, he was also taken back by himself."
"Then, according to the other party's character, this time is probably the easiest time for self-satisfaction."
"In other words, if we take advantage of the opponent's carelessness to attack at this time, our chances of winning will be one point greater."
"Moreover, although it is said that the broken arm has been retrieved, even if the other party has the means to recover, after losing such a long time, there will be some run-in periods more or less."
"That is, the opponent's strength should not have recovered to the peak, and there may even be an unstable situation."
"So do we have a better chance than this one in front of us?"
Bai Ye said so confidently on the surface, and there was also persuasion in his tone.
But, in reality, it was his hunch that told him that the so-called crusade had to be carried out as soon as possible.
In what he said just now, he really deduced what he said.
However, the reason he was even more anxious was that the longer he delayed, the worse things would happen afterward.
I don't know why, but that's how I feel.......
The scene fell silent again, and everyone did not speak for a moment, as if they were thinking about something.
Soon, though, the somewhat oppressive atmosphere was broken by someone.
"Hahaha! What a bold speculation, Brother Valkyrie! ā
"However, what you said is true, after all, after preparing for so long, if it drags on any longer, I'm afraid that even the last morale will be consumed!"
"It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to directly attack the [Great River Mountain] in one go, and take down the two [Ghost Kings]!"
Fujiwara Baochang laughed a little heroically at first, and then said with a serious face.
"Your idea, my Fujiwara family agrees, little brother of the martial god!"
"It's really worthy of the guy who once killed Qingming's bastard boy, I didn't misunderstand you!"
Looking at the white night with appreciation, Fujiwara Baochang really dared to say anything.
"Hehe......."
smiled a little embarrassedly, Bai Ye was really helpless about what this old man said.
At the same time, looking at the side of the [Gen family]'s seat, Watanabe Tsunade thanked Hakuya with a grateful gaze.
And Yuan Laiguang looked at Bai Ye with the kind of "Ah, it turns out that Ye-chan really cares about his mother very much" and don't ask him how he feels.
In this way, the [Shinsengumi] owes you a little more.......
Away from his gaze, Hakuya looked in the direction of Saya, waiting for the other party's decision.
After all, the people here are organized by the other party, and with the other party's status in [New Kyoto], it is true that the final decision is made.
"Okay....... Since the [Shinsengumi] has put forward such an opinion, I wonder if other people have other ideas? ā
After asking the usual question, and after no objections, Saya took a deep breath, stared at her eyes, and stood up directly from her seat.
"Then, I will announce here that the matter of crusading against the [Ghost King] on the [Great River Mountain]!"
"In the case of [New Kyoto], I will stay with the [Fujiwara family] and some of the onmyoji!"
"As for the rest of you, especially the [Genjia] and the [Shinsengumi], the crusade will be entrusted to you!"
"I hope you will not disappoint all the people of this era, and at the same time, I hope you can return safely when the time comes!"
"And the time of departure is set in three days!"
"At that time, I wish you all prosperity and prosperity!!"
In this way, the journey of ghost hunting officially began at this moment........
