Chapter 207: The undercurrent is turbulent
The whole body was completely wrapped in a pale blue ball of lightning, and the same pale blue robe on his body loomed in the electric light, and the wind spirit that constantly spewed blue electric light from his eyes flew in the air and chased after his enemy.
Shaped like a ghost!
Nimbly avoiding the branches and leaves along the way, the Wind Spirit quickly locked onto the enemy: three ninjas with slightly hot Yingzhou-made muskets in their hands!
He had already decided that the sniper had failed, and when he saw the mighty Wind Spirit suddenly appear in front of him, he immediately performed ninjutsu. The art of stand-in, its figure directly turned into a stake in a cloud of smoke.
The spirit of the wind, who suddenly stopped his movements, shot a lightning chain at the other two ninjas who were about to use ninjutsu to escape, and the shining electric light suddenly illuminated the dim forest, and the strong electric current directly hit the first ninja who reacted quickly, and then jumped onto the body of the second ninja, and then shot at the three ninjas who were hiding in a tree!
Intense electricity traveled back and forth over the bodies of the three ninjas, and the first ninja who was hit quickly collapsed to the ground in blackened black, completely losing his life; The second ninja also leaned on the trunk of the tree and slowly sat down on the ground, although he was not dead, but the body that twitched twice from time to time in the electric current was also obviously incapacitated: only Zhezhi Sannojo, who was hit by the end of the lightning chain that was getting weaker and weaker, was still alive, but he was obviously not lightly injured by this lightning chain, and even the iron cannon that was precious to life on weekdays was a little unstable.
However, he is not going to give up resistance yet!
Yingzhou is an island country with a small territory. It's also mostly mountainous. The bows and crossbows used by the people of Yingzhou are therefore weak: Yingzhou does not lack wood, but it lacks the best animal tendons used to make bowstrings.
On the battlefield of Yingzhou. It is common to see a samurai in armor with several arrows in his body, but he is still standing. It's not that these samurai are strong enough to ignore the damage of these feathered arrows, nor are these samurai's wills strong enough to endure the pain of feathered arrows. Rather, those feathered arrows, after piercing the armor, were only able to inflict a small skin wound on these warriors.
It is precisely because the most suitable bow and crossbow for assassination are not powerful enough, that the ninjas of Yingzhou have to master the secret weapons used in the way of throwing and blowing, such as kunai, poison needles, shurikens, etc., and it is also because of this that many schools of thought such as poisons and anesthetics have been derived.
The attack distance of the hidden weapon is obviously much closer than the bow and crossbow, which makes the ninjas easier to be discovered by the target of the attack, so the ninjas have derived ninjutsu such as doppelgangers, stand-in techniques, etc. to escape, and have also developed many props such as smoke bombs and sprinkles.
But this is actually a last resort.
However, the arrival of the iron cannon began to change all that.
Muskets made by the dwarves have always been considered the big toys of the dwarves. Even the dwarves themselves didn't pay much attention to this gadget, but many Yingzhou people noticed the sharpness of this weapon.
Compared with the bows and arrows used by the people of Yingzhou, although the musket also has various shortcomings, its power is indeed above the bow and arrow of Yingzhou. As a result, a considerable number of Yingzhou people were moved and sincerely asked the dwarves about the craftsmanship of muskets.
For the dwarves, who are known for their forging abilities, they have never been worried that there are other races whose forging skills can match those of the dwarves. Therefore, many dwarves often solve the problem of apprenticeship with a good pot of wine for other races who come to study.
Although they learned the craft of muskets from the dwarves, the craftsmen of Yingzhou were obviously inferior to the dwarves. Yingzhou's self-made muskets are far inferior to the dwarven muskets in terms of power and range. However, the people of Yingzhou still have a new weapon that can replace the already almost useless bow and arrow: the Yingzhou Iron Cannon.
The Yingzhou people quickly applied this iron cannon to the battlefield, and the discharged projectiles could often easily penetrate the armor of the warriors, and countless warriors fell under the iron cannon one after another. And compared to the more unreliable bow and arrow. Although the hit rate of the iron cannon was also fluctuating, the people of Yingzhou still quickly cultivated the art of iron cannon sniping, and many daimyo began to feel the threat of life brought by the iron cannon.
Zhezhi Sannojo also saw an opportunity to make a name for himself.
Although there are already iron cannon schools such as Tsuda-ryu and Inato-ryu among the people of Yingzhou. There are also famous families like Saga Zhong who are good at iron cannons, but there is really no genre among ninjas who are good at iron cannons!
Therefore, Zhezhi Sanzhicheng has practiced the art of iron cannon shooting for many years. He also trained a group of ninjas who were good at using iron cannons, and finally created a new genre!
But. That's not enough!
Rapidly growing in ambition, Sannojo now aims to make his new genre truly famous. To this end, he joined the Tokugawa family, intending to use the power of the Tokugawa family to gain some support for his future.
But now, he is likely to die first!
The Wind Spirit, which was still shrouded in electricity from top to bottom, floated in the air like this, and the qi element, which was almost invisible to the naked eye, supported his body, allowing him to fly in the air with agility and ease. And the electricity that is overflowing in his hand proves that the Wind Spirit is not only fast running.
The Lightning series of magical attacks have always been known for their power.
Slowly raised his hand, the wind spirit's hand flashed with electricity, and the strong current quickly converged into his hand, forming a small ball of lightning.
Although this lightning ball was small, Zhezhi Sannojo would not doubt its power: the lightning chain that the Wind Spirit sent out casually just now hit him almost half of his body! What's more, this is an obvious lightning ball with a charged action!
"Wait! I have important information to say! Zhezhi Sannojo shouted loudly.
The Wind Spirit was stunned for a moment, and then slowly dispersed the lightning ball in his hand: "Let's listen to it." But you only have one minute, and if you can't impress me, you're still dead. ”
"The purpose of the Tokugawa family's visit this time is ...... Go to hell! Zhezhi Sanzhi bowed his head respectfully. Then he raised the iron cannon in his hand sharply, and the muzzle of the gun was quickly aimed at the Spirit of the Wind!
"Bang!"
The disemboweling projectile instantly pierced through the Wind Spirit's body. A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Zhezhi Sanzhicheng's mouth, but it quickly turned into consternation.
Because the figure of the Wind Spirit is slowly dissipating!
Afterimage!
The thought quickly crossed my mind. Zhezhi Sannojo subconsciously began to perform ninjutsu immediately. The art of stand-in, but this time he didn't even have time to complete the ninjutsu, and a bolt of lightning pierced his body from behind.
"Ahhh......hh
The power of this lightning bolt is not weak, but Zhezhi Sannojo, who has suffered heavy damage again, still insists on not dying. With only one breath left, he looked at the lightning ball that had condensed again in the hands of the wind spirit floating in mid-air, and a look of horror finally appeared in his eyes.
"Wait! This time it's true! I have important information to say! Zhezhi Sanzhicheng stretched out his right hand, which was still trembling, and shouted with the last bit of strength.
However, the Wind Spirit dropped the lightning bolt as if he hadn't heard.
"Smack!"
The exploding electricity suddenly penetrated the body of Zhezhi Sanzhicheng, and he faintly heard the words of the wind spirit as he struggled in the strong current: "I'm sorry, although this time you should be able to tell the truth." But now I'm in a hurry......"
Hurry, hurry!
The power of these three words was even more powerful than the electricity flowing through his body, and the eyes of Zhezhi Sanzhicheng burst out, and the resentment in his heart was almost about to explode. But it was precisely because of the impact of this sentence that Zhezhi Sanzhicheng, who was already seriously injured, finally couldn't withstand the power of lightning, and the last breath in his mouth suddenly dissipated, and he completely lost his life with endless resentment.
"The spirit of nature never lies, it's you who waste your time." The Wind Spirit, wrapped in electricity, spread his hands casually.
Although it was separated from the Panda Warrior Monk transformed into Roger, the Spirit of Wind, as a spirit of nature, was obviously affected by the power of the atmosphere. There are some subtle deviations between the character and Roger himself.
casually gave the surviving ninja a supplementary blow, and the spirit of the wind never looked at the corpse of Zhezhi Sannojo again, and the electric current in his body exploded, and quickly disappeared into the forest.
The forest was suddenly calm again. It's just that the occasional clash of weapons from a distance proves that the battle is not over. When the Spirit of the Wind had been away for a while, a black aura quickly converged in front of Zhezhi Sanzhicheng, and a cloaked figure slowly emerged from the black qi. Quietly staring at the blackened Zhezhi Sanzhicheng.
"What a delicious soul! What a delicious resentment! It seems like a shame to eat it like this. Ho-ho-ho......" The Dark Monster laughed. Slowly, he stretched out a hand.
It was a skinny one with dark skin. The nails are sharp, and there is a strange black gas constantly escaping, and there are only three fingers of the hand.
The black shadow's hand slowly condensed a ball composed of black qi that gave people a strong sense of disgust, and then the black shadow who was about to throw the ball on the body of Zhezhi Sannojo slammed suddenly, and then slowly turned his head to look at the woods in the distance.
There, a thick lightning bolt directly penetrated the heavens and the earth, and the powerful aura made the black shadow frown a little: "Unexpectedly powerful, it seems that this is not enough at all." ”
Shaking his head, the black shadow's fingers flicked, slashing through the palm of his hand, and a black drop of blood popped out of the palm. The blood beads slowly merged into the ball composed of black qi, and immediately, the disgusting feeling brought by the strange ball suddenly became even heavier.
solemnly put the ball in the heart of Zhezhi Sanzhicheng, watching the ball slowly integrate into Zhezhi Sanzhicheng's body, the black shadow slowly shook his head: "I always feel a little lost." ”
Immediately, the black shadow turned into a puff of black gas and quickly dissipated.
And as the black qi disappeared without a trace, Zhezhi Sanzhicheng's fingers moved slightly, and his eyes opened suddenly.
In the depths of that pupil, there was a faint red glow.
The Wind Spirit, who turned into ball lightning again, quickly found Elsa, to be precise, the two shinobi who had been intercepted by Elsa.
Ukai Sun Roku, Kihattori Hanzo!
Of course, Aisha's strength alone can't fight against such two top-notch ninjas. However, Aisha has been hiding in the shadows and watching the two of them, and her stealth ability is not comparable to Aisha's two upper ninjas, and she is suddenly a little helpless.
Run, there is such an assassination master hidden in the dark at any time to attack, the two ninjas have no way to run away with peace of mind, and the various hidden weapons flying from the forest from time to time make it impossible for the two of them to raise their speed at all. Fight, people don't show up at all!
So Ukai Sunroku had to move sideways with Hattori Hanzo and back to back, so that at least he didn't have to worry about the attack from behind.
Of course, such a posture is obviously not fast, but it is better than not being able to run.
In this way, Aisha, whose combat ability is not as good as the two of them, naturally does not dare to attack rashly, so she can only interfere with various hidden weapons from time to time.
However, the number of hidden weapons on Aisha's body is limited after all, and such a move obviously cannot last long.
At this moment, the Wind Spirit rushed over with a big grin.
Ukai Sunroku, who was guarding against Elsha's sneak attack, was stunned for a moment, then turned around and faced the wind spirit that suddenly appeared with Hattori Hanzo behind him.
Although it is not clear whether this flying bear that suddenly appeared is friend or foe, at this time, the two still regard Aisha as the main object of defense.
However, the Wind Spirit immediately proved himself to be the most dangerous enemy with his strength.
The lightning bolts in both hands quickly converged into balls, and the Wind Spirit immediately threw the two lightning balls at the two upper ninjas.
The hair standing on end all over his body, and the intuition of being born and dying many times immediately told the two ninjas that this seemingly ordinary lightning ball was extremely dangerous!
The two quickly parted and pounced on the big tree on the side in unison.
Aisha's figure silently appeared behind Ukai Sun Liu, and Ukai Sun Liu, who had already fought with Aisha several times, immediately rolled over, and then confronted Aisha.
And the spirit of the wind floated in front of Hattori Hanzo like a ghost, and directly held the lightning ball in his hand and attacked Hattori Hanzo.
Hattori Hanzo jerked back, the spear in his hand cutting through an arc, aiming at the Wind Spirit's neck.
The corners of the Wind Spirit's mouth curled slightly, and Hattori Hanzo, who noticed this with sharp eyes, immediately planned to retreat, but it was too late.
The electric currents around the Wind Spirit's body exploded violently, and several currents directly hit Hattori Hanzo, who was about to retreat. As soon as his body was numb, Hattori Hanzo's movements suddenly changed shape, and he slipped and fell to the ground.
At this time, between the hands of the Wind Spirit, a large lightning ball three times larger than the usual lightning ball had been condensed.
Watching the large lightning ball take shape quickly, Hattori Hanzo, who was about to fall to the ground on his back, was suddenly filled with despair.
Am I going to die here?
"Look at the knife!" A loud shout came, and a sword qi immediately broke through the air, aiming directly at the bear head of the Wind Spirit.
The Wind Spirit, who had planned to kill Hattori Hanzo, had to float away in time, and then threw the large lightning ball in his hand to the comer.
However, the comer directly split the big lightning ball with the Japanese knife in his hand, and then put the knife into the sheath.
"Boom!"
With the sound of the sheath, the large lightning ball that fell behind the comer that was split in half suddenly burst open, but it had no effect on the comer.
"Bang!"
At this time, Hattori Hanzo, who had just fallen to the ground, hurriedly shouted loudly: "Ono-sama! Please help me! ”
"Looks like I'm here at the right time." Ono Tadaaki smiled and nodded, and then looked at the Wind Spirit floating in mid-air, "You've seen my strength, do you still want to continue to attack me?" ”
"Legendary warriors like you are indeed rare." The Wind Spirit shook his head slowly, "But don't be too arrogant, I'm not weak." ”
As he spoke, the Wind Spirit's hands began to gather electricity again. (To be continued.) )
