"Who is this man!? Is that "Zatoichi"?! ”

As professional assassins, they are naturally no strangers to the "Zatoichi" with a high bounty, because the appearance and characteristics given by the Shinsengumi are too obvious, so they recognize this "Zatoichi" at the first time.

Although I don't know why Iizuka calls this "Zatoichi" Ling Ze, but looking at his appearance, I know that he and this "Zatoichi" are probably friends and foes, and I can't imagine that this guy came with the rice bucket of Iizuka, and Ling Ze's words also confirmed this.

"Because I'm a youkai as you said, do you know what I am? I'm a monster who specializes in revenge, I found this place by smelling the smell of betrayers, and now, your betrayal is over, and all betrayers, must die. ”

Ling Ze's words came out, making Iizuka's face instantly lose its blood, to be reasonable, he was indeed frightened by Ling Ze's words, and he really believed it.

With a light footstep, Ling Ze's figure flickered, and he disappeared in place in an instant, and among these people present, none of them could see Ling Ze's movements clearly.

"Poof!"

Ling Ze's figure appeared in front of Iizuka, and under the frightened gaze of this betrayer, Ling Ze stabbed him through the throat with a knife, killing him directly.

Then Ling Ze drew his knife and made up for it, kicking the body of this ambitious traitor to the side, and Iizuka didn't even have a complete sentence or a scream, and he died clearly.

"There is no justice, only revenge, at this time I should add such a line to look more handsome."

Ling Ze complained in his heart, and then he quickly dodged the poisonous needle thrown by the young sword-wielding ninja on the opposite side, and his steps did not stop or hesitate, and continued to use the "shrinking ground" to get close to the enemy's side.

The remaining two young ninjas, one holding a waist knife in his hand, and the other with sharp blades and claws in his hand, both of them were already covered in hair, obviously both of them felt a great threat to their lives.

"Poof! Poof! ”

Ling Ze's figure spun, and he passed by the two young ninjas, and the [Xue Lan] in his hand easily took their lives.

"There's one last one left, do you have any last words?"

Ling Ze walked towards the leader of the assassination group with his knife, the back of the black blind-covering ribbon tied in front of his eyes fluttered slightly, and in the eyes of the leader at this time, it was like the boundless darkness that shrouded him.

"I... You... I am not a traitor! We can sit down and talk... Price or something... How much money can buy my life? I'll give you double!! Or something else will do the same! What do you want?! ”

The leader was obviously a little panicked, after all, Ling Ze's ghostly speed was something he had never seen before, and the death speed of his three younger brothers was too fast, and it was too easy to die, and he also had some belief that Ling Ze was a monster.

This made the leader almost completely lose the desire to fight, and he didn't feel that he had any hope of winning, and now he could only hope that the other party was only coming for Iizuka, so that he could still have a chance of surviving.

"It seems that you don't have any last words to say, so so be it, the only useful thing you can give me is your life."

Ling Ze naturally didn't come for money, nor just for Iizuka, so the words of this leader were meaningless to him, he didn't want to spare this guy's life in the first place.

"Die!"

When Ling Ze approached the old man who had been the leader, the leader, who had always seemed to be frightened, suddenly burst out.

Of course, he will not sit still, and if the negotiation fails, he will naturally fight to the death, and he still has this bit of courage, and he knows that the leader who has no chance of winning will choose a surprise attack very wisely, because this is the only way to create a miracle.

"Poof!"

Ling Ze raised his hand and stabbed out, killing the leader who raised his fist and pounced on him, obviously his knife was moving backwards, but it had already completed its task one step ahead, killing the possibility of this leader creating miracles.

"Plop."

The leader fell to the ground, and after two convulsions, he simply stopped moving, and was already dead and could not die again.

"Don't!! Don't you come here!! ”

The five adults all died, and the remaining Xue Daiyuan directly sat on the ground, and he kept retreating, as if he wanted to stay away from Ling Ze.

However, Ling Ze didn't pay attention to him, he directly used [Xue Lan] to suck the blood of those assassins one by one, and those shriveled corpses would once again add to the murderous reputation of "Zatoichi".

Zatoichi's fame has gradually begun to spread throughout Japan with his visit to Choshu, and it is only a matter of time before it becomes a legendary killer beyond the "executioner draws his sword", after all, his legend is more mysterious.

And what he did just now made Xue Daiyuan, who was watching everything from the side, even more frightened, which was a bit beyond the scope of his comprehension, and the eyes he looked at Ling Ze had become the kind of eyes that really looked at the monster.

"Vengeful youkai... Youkai who kill betrayers..."

Xue Daiyuan muttered to himself in distraction, obviously frightened, although this child was not small, a little stunned, but in the face of this unknown fear, it was also difficult for him to maintain his composure.

"The mission hasn't been settled."

Ling Ze still ignored the child, and after waiting for a while, he gradually began to realize that something was not quite right.

Because he has obviously killed Iizuka and has solved this assassination group, but this task has still not been settled, which is outrageous.

"Could it be that there is anyone else besides them who wants to kill Xuedaiba?"

There was only this one reason that Ling Ze could think of, or did he actually kill the wrong person? It's not this group that wants to kill Xuedaiba?

However, after thinking about it carefully, Ling Ze suddenly reacted, as if they really didn't want to kill Xue Daiba, what they wanted to kill was Scarlet Village Kenshin, and Xue Daiba was actually killed by Scarlet Village Kenshin.

"Could it be... Do you have to kill Kenshin Scarlet Village? ”

Such a ridiculous thought popped into Ling Ze's mind, and then he was immediately thrown out, which was obviously impossible.

"It looks like I'm going to have to try this method, maybe I'm wrong in my understanding."

Ling Ze walked to Xue Daiyuan, who was trembling in the corner, and directly released a "killing intent", which stunned the child.

He releases killing intent and uses the "heart side", there is no need to "look through the eyes" or anything, after all, no one stipulates that you must use your eyes to release killing intent, and this is not a "pupil technique".

Picking up Xue Daiyuan, Ling Ze left this place quickly, after all, he made a lot of noise, and it is estimated that there will be security personnel rushing over after a while, although Otsu City is not as good as Kyoto, but after all, it is also a choke point, and there are still a lot of guards.

Soon after Ling Ze left, someone rushed over, this was a handsome and tall swordsman, he quickly walked around the room, and after making sure that those people were all dead, he left directly.

"The people have been killed, and the blood in their bodies has been sucked clean, and it should be the hands of the legendary "Zatoichi". ”

In a hidden hut in Otsu Castle, the man who had just gone to the scene of the crime was reporting to another man.

When he saw the corpses at the scene of the crime just now, he was obviously stunned for a moment, he obviously had never seen such a scene, but he quickly reacted and thought of the legend about "Zatoichi".

"Zatoichi ......"

Gui Kogoro's face was solemn, he knew that this Zatoichi should be "Ling Ze", although they hadn't seen each other since that separation, but the portrait and characteristics of this "Zatoichi" sent by the Shinsengumi and the Mikai Group undoubtedly explained his identity.

"Why did he get involved in this?"

Katsura Kogoro had a headache, and because of this "Zatoichi", there was no way for his plan to continue, which was something he didn't expect.

In fact, Katsura Kogoro had already discovered and detected Iizuka's plan after the "Ikedaya Incident", so he severed ties with Katakai and Iizuka and went underground to hide himself.

However, while ensuring his own safety, Katsura Kogoro is still secretly watching the progress of the matter, and with the help of the newly recruited "Executioner Draw Knife Zhai" in front of him, he is monitoring the overall situation.

Compared with the young Scarlet Village Kenshin, this real man named Zhi Zhixiong is undoubtedly more capable, more bottomless, and more easy to use.

Scarlet Village Kenshin was originally a very useful sharp knife and sharp blade, but now Kimmura Kenshin is gradually beginning to waver, which is not something Katsura Kogoro wants to see.

And the plan of those people in Iizuka made Katsura Kogoro see a good opportunity to let Kenshin of Scarlet Village regain his original state, so he did not stop Iizuka and them, but prepared to push the boat down the river.

It's just that now don't say it's "pushing the boat down the river", now even the "boat" sailing on the water has sunk, and Gui Kogoro's little abacus is completely in vain.

"I don't know, what do I do now? Do you want to keep the plan going? ”

Zhi Zhixiong asked genuinely and casually, he was actually not very interested in this matter, but for this "Zatoi City" that was mixed in, Zhi Zhixiong really had a great interest.

After all, he had never seen that strange corpse, and judging from the wounds of those people, the swordsmanship of this "Zatochi" was also very superb, which made Zhi Zhixiong really a little happy.

He actually wanted to fight with his predecessor Kenshin Scarlet, but since he had promised to become a "shadow killer", he naturally couldn't appear in front of others at will, and Katsura Kogoro didn't allow him to go to trouble Kenshin Scarlet Village.

"Scarlet Village has been in the gentle village for too long, if nothing wakes him up, it will be difficult for him to devote himself to the cause of justice again, and this plan must have a follow-up."

Katsura Kogoro actually sees things very clearly, and after the "Ikedaya Incident", he will also arrange Yukidaiba and Iizuka, who already know that they are spies, to be by Kenshin's side, in order to let the young Kenshin of Khimmura suffer a little blow and be able to mature.

Katsura Kogoro wants to let Xuedaiba die, which is actually a very normal thing, because from his point of view, Xuedaiba and Iizuka, the two moles, are the culprits who made all his efforts fall short.

Maybe that woman's purpose is not this, but there is no doubt that her purpose is not pure, and Gui Kogoro, who can be ruthlessly eliminated by her own meritorious people, will naturally not be soft on Xuedaiba, a traitor.

Katsura Kogoro, who adheres to the principle of "crazy justice", is undoubtedly a ruthless person and a very good politician.

"Need my help? Scarlet Village Kenshin, Zatoichi, I want to fight these two people. ”

Zhi Zhixiong really volunteered, the reason why he agreed to be a "shadow killer" was to show his ability to the high-level of the Restoration, he was an ambitious man, but it was obvious that his political wisdom was not high enough, otherwise he would not end up like that.

"Don't worry, that Zatoshi took Xuedaiba's younger brother away, he must already know the truth of the matter, let's see how they deal with it first."

Katsura Kogoro was not in a hurry, he wanted to see how Kenshin Kizmura would deal with this matter after knowing the truth.

On the other side, Ling Ze took Xue Daiyuan to find Kenshin and Xue Daiba as Gui Xiaogoro thought.

Ling Ze suddenly figured out that those assassins might be the apparent cause of Xuedaiba's death, but what really made Xuedaiba die was actually the knot in her heart, the tangled feelings for Kiyosato Akira and Scarlet Village Kenshin.

Therefore, the most important thing to "save Xuedaiba" may be to untie the knot between her and Scarlet Village Kenshin, and I think about it, if there is no knot between these two people, how can an assassin of that level be the opponent of Kagemura Kenshin?

"Do you know this person?"

Ling Ze threw Xue Daiyuan into the wooden house, and asked Xue Daiba, just after eating, Xue Daiba and Scarlet Village Kenshin, who were cleaning up the room, looked at the child, and the expressions of the two people were different.

Scarlet Village Kenshin obviously didn't understand who this child was, so he also looked at Xuedaiba, because looking at Ling Ze's meaning, it was obvious that this child seemed to have something to do with Xuedaiba.

"Fate?"

Xuedaiba looked at the familiar figure on the ground, immediately put down the rag in his hand, and came over to pick up the child.

"What's going on? Why is fate here? ”

After finding out that Xue Daiyuan had just fainted, Xue Daiba looked at the blind swordsman in front of him full of mystery suspiciously, although he had been with Ling Ze for a while, but Ling Ze's identity and strength still made Xue Daiba feel very mysterious.

"I think it's better for you to talk about things yourself, Iizuka has already let me kill them, and those assassins have also let me solve them all, this is your brother's children are with them, I already understand the general situation, you don't have to worry about anything, just explain the matter."

Ling Ze casually pulled a cushion and sat down, he was ready to eat melons on the spot, in fact, he should have left at this time, but in order to prevent accidents, such as "Xuedaiba suicide" or something, he had to sit in the house.

"Iizuka? What's going on? What did he do? ”

Hearing the words "Iizuka, assassin, brother" and so on, Kinkmura Kenshin was a little confused, he was obviously the one who was completely kept in the dark, this simple guy really didn't know what to say.

“......”

Xuedaiba fell silent, and she actually felt a sense of relief when she heard that Iizuka and those assassins were dead, because one of the reasons she was entangled was that the existence of those people made it impossible for her to be honest with Kenshin Shirimura.

If there were no people in those people, the relationship between her and Scarlet Village Kenshin would have become more simple and clear, and she only needed to explain her original purpose and current mood to Scarlet Village Kenshin, it would be enough.

“......”

"Why don't I avoid it first?"

Looking at Xue Daiba, who wanted to speak and stopped, Ling Ze got up helplessly, he, an outsider, was here, and sure enough, Xue Daiba still couldn't open his mouth.

Ling Ze eventually left the wooden house, he waited outside the door against the wall, but he was still very closely concerned about the situation inside the house, to prevent his mission from suddenly failing.

After a while, the two people in the room finally explained all the problems clearly, and some things are actually the most afraid of dragging and hiding, and it will become much easier to explain them clearly on the surface.

For Kenshin Khimmura, knowing that Xuedaiba's original goal was to take revenge is actually not something difficult to accept, because this simple child thinks that there is nothing wrong with this, and in fact, there is nothing wrong with it, and it is an eternal truth that murderers will always kill them.

The most important thing is that for two people who already have feelings for each other, this problem is not a problem at all, especially for the man.

The fiancée of a person who was killed by himself comes to take revenge, but only falls in love with him, which not only does not make him feel a burden on his heart, but may even have some pride.

Of course, a simple child like Kenshin Scarlet Village may feel a little guilty because of this, but this will not affect his feelings for Xuedaiba.

However, Xuedaiba is sandwiched between morality and feelings, and she will feel very difficult to do, after all, falling in love with such a thing as killing her husband and enemy, it will seem that she is not very moral, but love is unreasonable in itself.
