Chapter 13: General Hum's Descent
"I am indeed... a useless ninja..."
Wolf stood in front of the crowd with his knife in hand and confronted the ghost. The scene of that year flashed through his mind again.
He recalled his adoptive father's frustrated look after he firmly stated that he wanted to break the commandments.
"You said... you can't do it? A ninja can actually be controlled by emotions."
"It's really too useless..."
Kneeling on the wooden board in grief.
“Woo… woo.”
The scene flashed by, and the wolf's attention was focused on the evil ghost [King General] opposite.
The evil ghost looked at the thin figure holding a knife and standing in front of the family of three, his eyes focused on the long knife on his back.
A member of the Demon Slayer Corps? The sword was indeed a nice Nichirin sword, but they were not wearing the black Demon Slayer Corps uniform.
Having lived as a demon for nearly three hundred years, [Oujiang] has eaten a lot of even the members of the Demon Slayer Corps. He originally wanted to have a big meal during the gathering celebration, so that his strength would surely reach the level of the Twelve Demon Moons.
It will definitely attract the attention of that adult and he will give me more of his blood.
But the guy who suddenly jumped out in front of him and blocked his sword gave him a feeling that was different from previous members of the Demon Slayer Corps. That was the intuition he developed on the battlefield.
The person in front of me is not an ordinary person, and that murderous aura is not from killing ghosts!
"Hey! Kid, you've killed a lot of people!"
The wolf paused for a moment, and lowered his head so that no one could see his expression. His silence was taken as consent.
Seeing the wolf's appearance, the King General's expression became even more mocking, and he even put down his knife. He deliberately shouted loudly at the wolf in front of him and the people who were unable to escape and could only stand there and watch the confrontation between the man and the ghost.
"Hey, you must be kidding. This murderous aura is really scary. I'm afraid you have killed more people than I have eaten!"
And just as he thought, the crowd burst into a buzzing sound when they heard his voice.
"Did you hear what the evil ghost said?"
"I heard it! I've killed more people than the evil spirits have eaten!"
"That's horrible... Neither of them is a good person."
"Look, I say wait until they are both badly hurt, then we'll rush over and finish them off together!"
......
Although the voices of the crowd were low, they still reached the ears of the wolf with keen senses.
The wolf's already thin body became even shorter at this moment, but the wolf did not feel angry or sad.
Because what the evil ghost said was right, as a ninja, he had indeed killed countless people on his hands, and in this respect he was not necessarily that noble compared to the ghost.
The sarcastic smile of [Wang Jiang] turned into a smug one at this moment. How does it feel to stab someone in the back? Just like me in the past...
He sarcastically expected the wolf to show a look of collapse, but he would be disappointed in the end.
Because Wolf doesn't care about what the people behind him say, he is just a useless ninja who is controlled by boring emotions.
He tightly grasped the hilt of the knife, his eyes flashed with ferocity, as if he was about to rush to the face of the [King General] and fight with the knife.
Just then, a righteous roar came from behind.
"Shut up!"
The roar interrupted the humming of the rest of the crowd, even the wolf and the [king general] who were seriously preparing to fight.
The person who spoke was the father who was protected by the wolf and hugged his wife and children tightly.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down and their eyes were focused on him, he spoke again.
"No matter how many people this swordsman has killed, he is on our side now!"
"We are both human beings. How can we not trust a swordsman who is also a human being, but instead trust an evil ghost who has eaten countless people!"
"At least so far, I haven't seen this swordsman do anything to hurt anyone, and he has even protected our family. Everyone, please trust this swordsman!"
The father held his wife and children and kept talking, his eyebrows raised, his neck red, and he looked at the people around him in hysterics, which shook them.
"this..."
“It seems to make sense…”
……
"Come on, big brother!"
The girl who had given the candy man to the wolf before shouted in tears in her father's arms.
"Yeah, come on bro!"
"We will help you!"
“There are lots of shovels over there!”
Suddenly, everyone seemed to be ignited. Some gave excited shouts of support, while some hot-blooded young men shouted and went to find weapons around them.
The sound waves rushed towards the wolf's back, as if there was a force pushing the wolf forward. The [King General] on the opposite side felt the sound waves and showed anger on his face. The fangs in his mouth suddenly stretched out and the veins on his neck bulged.
"It's not fair... It's not fair! Why aren't you condemned by everyone?"
At the same time, the familiar life bar and the name [King General] next to it appeared in the wolf's eyes, and the battle was about to officially begin!
Sekiro raised his knife-holding hand and stopped the many strong men holding shovels who were about to rush forward behind him.
Amid their confused looks, Wolf looked at the number of paper figures stored in the light curtain.
Fifteen paper figures.
enough.
His thoughts flowed towards the items held in the light curtain, and he took a ball of red mist in his hand. This mist was one of the five spirits that had been in the wolf's possession at the beginning three years ago.
Heng will bring down the spirit.
The function is to temporarily enhance the attack power and torso value.
Allowing an inhuman soul to descend upon one's self can be transformed into power, but without something to exchange it with, one will eventually fall into madness.
And the object of exchange is the paper figure that is the embodiment of karma!
The two paper figures turned into white light and flew into the red mist. As the wolf made a special gesture, the red mist merged into the wolf's body, forming the words "A Gong" on its body.
The wolf's physical strength and power also increased dramatically, so it could use some of the secret skills that were previously unusable.
He held the knife and aimed at the [Evil Ghost King] in front of him with murderous intent!
"It's about to happen."
The body is in a lunge, the right leg is pulled back to lower the center of gravity, and strength is accumulated for preparation. The right hand holding the knife is pulled back to accumulate strength, and the left hand is extended to point to [King General].
The King General who was furiously rushing towards the wolf suddenly stopped and plowed two deep gullies in the ground. When he calmed down, he was horrified!
You can't take this move head-on!
Vampire magic - fuck it!
The skin and flesh exploded, and blood gushed out to wrap around his body, gradually solidifying and becoming thick, and finally turning into a blood-red armor that covered his entire body!
The wolf just looked at the person in front of him who was using the magical power. His expression remained the same as before, but the extent of the power accumulated in his body was even more exaggerated, like a fully drawn bow ready to be fired!
His right leg stepped on the ground first, leaving a deep footprint, and with a flash of blade, he rushed towards the armored [King General] at an accelerated speed.
It can block it! This armor made with blood magic can definitely block this attack!
But the wolf's subsequent actions made him no longer have such thoughts.
During the acceleration process, the wolf's left leg stepped on the ground again, making the wolf's speed several times faster. At this moment, Kushimaru also stabbed forward along with the wolf's right arm!
Break through the air and bring up a hurricane!
This is the secret of the ninja style - the ultimate skill - the giant ninja thrust!
Can't stop it!
Just as the thought flashed through General Wang’s mind.
This swift speed and overwhelming force were concentrated in a single stab at the tip of the knife.
The blood-red iron armor was as thin as paper and was easily pierced by Wolf's giant ninja thrust in an instant. The tip of Uzumaki's knife also pierced into the neck of the [King]!
Seeing the opponent's life bar plummeting and the torso value suddenly rising by half, Wolf turned the wedge ball in his hand and wanted to separate the body of this evil ghost.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion on the ground!
