Kazama nodded and sent someone up to pick up the shocked Anxin Temple Hideyuki father and son.

The situation was completely reversed.

“……！” Lian Wu drove Katy to turn around and evacuate, it felt so exciting!

Anxin Yuan Ryuichi took his father's arm and led him to flee to the side of the Metropolitan Police Department officer, and now that the hostages were safe, the soldiers and police officers began to approach the inside of the Naruto Snake Shopping Building.

……

Midnight is approaching.

The fierce battle in the Snake Shopping Building lasted for 4 hours, and Edith sat in the dark, the screen in front of her was pitch black, and no light or shadow was reflected, and she sat upright.

The machine in front of her rang, Edith glanced at it, and the voice from Hikoshiro Nagai, the prime minister of Dongming Province, immediately came out:

"Mrs. Edith, I would like to ask you to explain the accident that happened at the Narrum Snake Shopping Center in old Tokyo."

As the current prime minister of the Eastern Kingdom, Hikoshiro Nagai keeps a close eye on the human defense plan that hovers over the country's head.

"Everything is going according to plan." Edith sat straight in the dark.

"We never knew about your plans, and that's the problem. The army and the Metropolitan Police Department are sent like animals, and you never explain what happened to the public. In the end, all the accountability, doubts, and insults piled up on me. Do you think this is a good fit? Hikoshiro Nagai said slowly.

"Yes." Edith said.

"The doors of the House have always been open for you, but you have never stepped in. All the bills have been put before you, and you have never given a reply, but you have demanded that the charter and the privileges provided for in the Shibuya Treaty be perpetuated. You, just watch us suffer. Hikoshiro Nagai asked slowly.

"I love to see you die." Edith said.

"Does it make you so happy to see us bleed? We are people, not animals. This country, this nation, has its own sovereignty. Hikoshiro Nagai said slowly.

"Is there one?" Edith asked.

"These messages have been recorded, Lady Edith." Hikoshiro Nagai said.

"Ten years ago, the Imperial Family of Dongming, who lived in Europe, asked to return to the Imperial Palace after recovering New Tokyo, and it was I who blew up their plane to allow you to rebuild a real republic." Edith said.

"This has been a pain in our hearts and a long-standing unsolved case, and I'm glad you're willing to admit it......" Hikoshiro Nagai said.

"Politics is the art of establishing stable rule over economically disadvantaged groups over economically disadvantaged classes. In today's world, the only class with economic superiority is the Human Defense Program, and since I am its emissary, you are the object of domination. Edith said.

"I won't admit a monster like you. In my limited time in office, I will find a way to resolve this situation. Hikoshiro Nagai said in a deep voice.

"I will support your re-election in the next prime minister's election, because you are at least smarter than Yu Mihashi. Now you should wait for the incident to end, while the blades I have sent continue to cut carrion through the country. Edith said.

Hikoshiro Nagai was silent for a moment.

"I think I've found your weakness." Hikoshiro Nagai's voice was steady and hoarse.

"Say."

"'Rules', you seem to have no scruples in tone and rather arrogant in your demeanor, but in reality, you have never exceeded the privileges set forth in the Shibuya Treaty, and you have even complied fairly well with the orders given by the Human Defense Plan. So I guess that your unique authority has to do with 'rules', and that you are the real being in this world who is disciplined by supernatural chains, which is very unfree, compared to us humans......" Hikoshiro Nagai said slowly.

"Yes." Edith said.

"Well, I dare to guess that in the Human Defense Plan, in Junbao, someone has signed a contract with you at the cost of some resources of this world, summoning you, and as long as that contract exists, humans will have a strong binding effect on you. But now you're disappointed, or you've changed your mind, so you find a way to train your henchmen and agents, recruit the best people, strengthen them, even if it's extreme, and send them to do what you can't do, to become your spies and killers. ”

No matter what Hikoshiro Nagai said, Edith was silent.

In the end, he had to compromise and end the correspondence.

And Edith sat alone in the dark, like a tombstone.

……

……

Snake Building, interior.

Bullets smashed through the barricade, shattering a wine rack, shards of broken oak pouring down and bottles smashing one after another.

Mizuri swooped and tumbled, using the debris as cover to drag Chiyo Fujikawa's body behind a reinforced bar table.

Blood oozed from Chiyo Fujikawa's cracked knife wounds, staining her clothes crimson.

"Hold on!" Shuili gritted her teeth.

She wrapped a portion of her clothes in her right metal hand and pressed down on Chiyo Fujikawa's wound in an attempt to stop the bleeding.

Chiyo Fujikawa remained motionless.

The brief respite ended, and more Fujikawa crew members poured into the bar with submachine guns.

"Kill the ninja!"

"Catch the ninja! Ninja! Damn it! ”

"Come to the bar!"

"Chiyo Fujikawa ran this way!" They shouted loudly that they wanted to hunt down Chiyo Fujikawa to death.

Shui Li held the hidden weapon in her hand, the Golden Car Sword, which was given to her by Lai Zhong, the owner of the Sky Tree that day.

"Go!" With his long-honed instinct, Shui Li threw out the Golden Car Sword hard!

Woooo

The Golden Wheel Sword quickly unfolded in the air, and immediately shot out thousands of steel needles in all directions, and the dense thin needles pierced the first few people, making a terrifying sound of flesh penetrating.

"Uh-"

"It hurts!"

"There's a hidden weapon!"

They were confused by the appearance of the Golden Chariot Sword.

Mizuri rolled over the counter and slammed her mechanical fist through the chest of one of the Fujikawa crew members.

Then, she quickly lowered her head, and bullets whizzed over her head.

Gun!

Collecting guns and ammunition from the corpse, Mizuri grabbed her pistol, scrambled for cover, hid behind a stout pillar and fired back, and took down two more aggressive Fujikawa crews.

But the remaining six gunners scattered and surrounded her.

Shuili quickly returned fire, and after a burst of fire, she ejected the empty magazine and reached for another magazine, only to find that the bullets in the magazine had run out.

"She's run out of bullets!"

"Rush!" They continued to advance, stepping over the corpses of their companions.

Mizuri grabbed more hidden weapons from her belt, flashed out from behind cover, and hurried at them, buying her a few seconds.

Riptide Instant!

Shui Li rushed straight at the gunman, his black boots sliding across the shiny floor, blinking close.

As she rushed in front of them, she kicked with one foot and a spun hook kick that shattered the jaw of a gangster, followed by a back-and-back kick that knocked down a Fujikawa crew.

Shui Li didn't say a word and jumped up quickly.

Torrent Vortex Fall!

While dodging the gunshot, she jumped onto the shoulders of another Fujikawa crewmate, tightened his neck with her legs, and swirled like a viper, flipping the opponent several times before falling to the ground and kicking him to death.

"Ahhh......h

Without hesitation, Shui Li pulled out Yao Ying and slit his throat.

Panting, Mizuri turned around to check on Chiyo Fujikawa. She was unconscious due to excessive blood loss.

Shuili's heart sank, like a desperate situation.

Her physical exertion was too great to take Chiyo Fujikawa to a safer place.

It was as if all the fighting, all the efforts, had only postponed the inevitable death for a few minutes.

“…… Patience. Mizuri knelt beside Chiyo Fujikawa, who had fallen, and gently held Chiyo's hand.

She aimed the last of her snatched guns at the entrance to the bar.

The Fujikawa crew arrived, including the ronin and the ferocious group leader, when the footsteps came one after another.

Mizuri has strengthened her beliefs, and she will defend Chiyo's honor to the death.

"Catch her!"

"A lot of people died!"

"Shoot!"

"Shoot them with bullets, whoa!" The Fujikawa team members were ruthless, but they didn't dare to advance, the strength of the ninja was obvious to all, and it seemed that the outer defense line had fallen.

Gunfire followed one after another, and the torrent of bullets seemed to never stop.

Mizuri curled up beside Chiyoko, using her armored right arm to protect herself and her as best she could.

It was in vain, but surrounded and there was no choice.

Just when Shuili was mentally prepared and ready to die in battle, the gunfire suddenly stopped!

"Monster! The monster is coming! ”

"Ahhh

"Help!"

"Stop, stop it......!"

Sounds like something is on a rampage, hitting in!

It's very fast!

Shui Li's eyes widened, what the hell could it be......

She ventured out from behind the bar to take a look.

In the doorway stood a young woman, brandishing a gleaming silver-white spear.

She was......

Li Yixin?

I saw it when I was in Anxinyuan, and now her slender body is flashing with demonic energy.

The innocent rookie investigator is gone, replaced by an ancient and deadly man, or "thing".

Li Yixin passed through the ranks of the Fujikawa group of thugs with a furious force, and the spear "flame light" danced in the air, stained with blood as a painting. They screamed and fell, their limbs mutilated, and they were cut into a blur of flesh and blood by Li Yixin's clean piercing and chopping!

Soon, the polished hardwood planks were piled with fragmented corpses.

Several of the survivors fired several shots in panic, but Li Yixin struck the bullet aside with the blade of his gun contemptuously and precisely.

Her eyes shimmered crimson, burning with endless hunger and thirst that terrified Mizuri.

In an instant, all the remaining Fujikawa crew members were either dead or dying.

Li Yixin turned towards Shui Li, an ugly smile on his face.

Mizuri tensed her nerves, not knowing whether to prepare for the attack or to show gratitude.

But Li Yixin didn't respond, just nodded.

"We need treatment needles!" Mizuri shouted.

"What she needs is ...... Battery. Li Yixin quickly jumped away from here.

The faces of the Fujikawa crew members who were killed by her were distorted, as if they had lost something from their bodies permanently.

Electricity? Mizuri turned to Chiyo Fujikawa, who fell to the ground, rubbed his hands, and generated electricity right here!
