In the arena, there was a hubbub of voices.
The building similar to the Roman Colosseum was full of people, and in the center of the arena, several figures were tied to crosses, motionless.
"Woo … …"
Hearing the voices coming from all around, Mine clenched her teeth. Last night's raid was very successful. Although the night raid also killed a lot of Jaegers members in the resistance, in the end, they were still arrested.
But now, only Mine, Hill, and Akame were left alive. Akame's whereabouts were unknown, and Mine and Hill were the only two members who were captured alive.
The others were killed in the battle with the Jaegers. Of course, the situation of the Jaegers was not good either. All three beasts were killed in battle, only Merry, Kurome, and a mysterious girl survived, but to say … …
"Akame's swordsmanship is really powerful … …"
Recalling the battle last night, Mine couldn't help but reveal a smile. It was also the first time she saw Akame unleashing the power of the Thirteen Deadly Swords without holding back. Especially the fifteenth sword which directly killed the eight puppets controlled by Hei Tong, it almost pushed her sister to the limit. If it weren't for the man named Will who came forward to save her, perhaps the bloody battle between the sisters would have been decided.
Originally, Mine could also escape, but in order to cover Akame's escape, she decided to sacrifice herself and was finally caught.
I don't know what happened to Akame, will he find that pervert to save us … …
Glancing at Hill who also closed his eyes, Mine suddenly had such a thought in her heart at the moment. But soon, she laughed bitterly.
How could he come, the other party obviously used them as a trap to lure that pervert, that's why they captured them alive. Otherwise, Mine didn't believe that the group of cold-blooded Jaegers would be so kind to spare their lives.
But that's it … …
Just as this thought turned in Mine's mind, suddenly, the noisy arena gradually became quiet. Then, a boy of about ten years old appeared in full view of the crowd and walked to the platform. He raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet. Soon, there was no sound in the arena.
At the same time, the young emperor spoke.
"Citizens of the Empire, there have been people spreading baseless rumors about the collapse of the Empire recently, and they have troubled me greatly. However, the people should not easily believe such groundless words. Today, I will execute the traitor who disrupted the order of the empire! The rumored members of the Night Raid! "
As he spoke, the Emperor extended his hand and pointed forward.
"They oppress the good people and wield their blades for their own desires. They are an evil assassination organization. No one is allowed to invade our empire and this fertile capital! The empire, the imperial capital is immortal! "
The Emperor raised the scepter in his hand. Along with this action, the cheers grew louder. However, at this moment …
"No, the royal power is not eternal, Your Majesty."
A cold, gloomy voice suddenly appeared, suppressing all the cheers. The young emperor abruptly turned his head to look, only to discover that on the high wall of the arena behind him, there was a figure in a white robe standing there.
"Traitor! Catch him! "
Seeing the sudden appearance of the figure, the Emperor was shocked and hurriedly gave the order. However, before the others could do anything, they saw the man in the white robe suddenly raise his hands and wave them down as if he was conducting a symphony. In the next moment, accompanied by a sudden burst of roars and explosions, thick smoke suddenly appeared around the entire arena!
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, General Budo also hurried to the Emperor's side and guarded him behind him, staring at the figure. But the figure just stood there, silent.
"There's no need."
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is …"
Facing General Budo's question, Fangzheng sneered.
"You don't need to protect the Emperor anymore."
"Your Majesty!!!"
Before Budo could understand what Fangzheng meant, he heard the scream of Minister Earnest behind him. He turned his head and was surprised to find that behind him, the young emperor's eyes were wide open, his hands clutching his neck tightly, and there was a knife in his neck.
A flying dagger!
A flying dagger that would never miss!
A dagger that never missed its target!
"General … Bu …"
The young emperor stretched out his hand to the man in front of him, trying to grab something, but the next moment, his whole body fell to the ground softly, no longer breathing.
The Emperor is dead!
He killed the Emperor!
At this moment, the air in the entire arena seemed to have frozen. Whether it was the frightened people, Mine and Gill who were tied on the cross, or the members of the Jaegers who didn't have time to protect the emperor, they were all stunned looking at the emperor's corpse on the high platform and the figure standing on the high wall.
"… You thief!!!"
Seeing the Emperor die, General Budo couldn't bear it anymore. He roared, and lightning instantly erupted from his body, going straight into the sky. But at the same time, Fangzheng also stared at General Budo and shouted angrily.
"Shut up! You traitor! "
"What …."
At this moment, Fangzheng stared at General Budo, jumped off the wall, and walked toward him step by step.
"As we all know, Earnest kidnapped the Emperor, brutalized the Emperor, and made him an official in the court. Between the Emperor and the Emperor, the beasts ate the officials. As a result, the cruel and unscrupulous people dominated the court, and the servile people took over the government, causing the country to become ruins, and the common people to suffer the pain of suffering! In this time of national crisis, as a General, what can you do?! "
"You …"
In the face of Fangzheng's anger, General Budo's face turned pale and then green. He stretched out his hand and pointed at Fangzheng.
"You … You dare …!"
"Shut up, shameless man!"
However, Fangzheng suddenly waved his hand and interrupted General Budo's words.
"You don't know that people in the world are willing to eat your flesh, how dare you talk nonsense here! Since you're a flatterer, you can only hide and seek food and clothing. You're about to die in the underworld. How can you face your ancestors and the former Emperor?! "
At this moment, the whole arena was dead silent. Everyone looked at this scene dumbfounded. Under their gazes, General Budo's face turned red, and his body trembled.
"I … I …"
"Traitor, you have the heavy responsibility of protecting the country, but you sit back and do nothing about it. You've lived in vain for forty years, and you've never made any contribution in your life. You only know how to wag your tongue and help the wicked! A dog with a broken back dares to bark in front of me …. "
At this point, Fangzheng stretched out his hand and pointed at General Budo.
"I've never seen such a shameless person!"
"Shut up!"
Accompanied by an angry roar, General Budo's body erupted with electric currents enough to cover the entire arena. He roared and rushed directly at Fangzheng. Fangzheng just stared at him coldly. As General Budo rushed over, he suddenly rolled forward and arrived in front of General Budo through the gap in the electric currents. Then, Fangzheng stretched out his hands, and two hidden blades suddenly popped out and directly penetrated General Budo's knees!
"Ugh …!!"
General Budo groaned. His huge body suddenly knelt on the ground, but even so, he did not give up. He continued to raise his hands to grab Fangzheng. But Fangzheng immediately got up. The hidden blades in his hands shot out again and pierced General Budo's shoulders. The next moment, the hands that were grabbing at Fangzheng suddenly fell powerlessly.
"You …!"
At this moment, General Bude, who could not move his hands or feet, raised his head angrily and looked at the abbot. He opened his mouth to say something, but at the same time, two ice-cold hidden blades had already pierced his neck in a crisscrossed manner.
"… … …"
General Budo's body shook a little. He stared at Fangzheng with his eyes wide open. Then, he fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.
But at this moment, Fangzheng was no longer there.
After pulling out the hidden blades from General Budo's neck, Fangzheng leaped forward, stepping on the stairs next to him and leaped high, like an eagle descending from the sky, baring its fangs at its prey.
"Don't come over!!"
Looking at Fangzheng who jumped down from above, Minister Earnest also screamed. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to aim at Fangzheng. Soon, one of the rings on Minister Earnest's right hand suddenly changed its shape, and then suddenly broke.
This was Minister Earnest's trump card and his hidden power. This was a Teigu that could make all Teigu ineffective. For Earnest, it was also an excellent amulet. However …
"Puchi!"
The hidden blades that fell from the sky pierced into Minister Earnest's neck and nailed him to the ground.
"Why … … Why … …"
His eyes widened, looking at the man in white robe in front of him, Minister Earnest could not believe his eyes.
Why … this power has no effect on him?
If Fangzheng knew Earnest's inner thoughts at this moment, he would definitely tell him – I never use Teigu …
But unfortunately, there was no way for Minister Earnest to know the answer.
Looking at Minister Earnest's round eyes in front of him, Fangzheng stretched out his hand and closed his eyes, then he stood up and looked at the arena in front of him. At this time, the people in the arena were completely silent. They curled up into a ball and trembled as they looked at the figure standing on the high platform. Many people couldn't believe their eyes.
General Budo, who was famous in the imperial capital, was dead.
Minister Earnest was also dead.
Even the emperor was dead.
What would happen next?
No one knew all this.
