Puchi!
Critical Hit! Critical Hit! Heavy Bleeding!
Watanabe Yoshihiro felt a chill down his spine. Fortunately, he was a Level 5 Elite. Even if he specialized in Agility, his HP was still over 200 points. This Vital Strike did not reach 1/3 of his total HP, so he did not die instantly.
However, with Bai Xiaowen's Level-4 Close-Combat and Level-4 Single-Handed Sword Mastery, the Shadow Assassin was no longer the weakling that could only rely on [Stealth] and [Assassination] to escape after a single round of attacks. The Shadow Assassin swung both swords and attacked Watanabe Yoshihiro continuously, forcing him to retreat without even having time to bandage his wounds.
Shallow Marsh Teeth wanted to help, but he realized that the swordsman in front of him was giving him more and more pressure. Like a moving windmill, each attack was faster than the last. Shallow Marsh Teeth was hit a few times by the swordsman, and his HP dropped a lot.
"Looks like I have to finish you off first!" Shallow Marsh Teeth shouted. He held his sword with both hands and swung it upwards. "Earth Wave Slash!"
A snake-like sword aura slithered along the ground and attacked Li Shuyi's legs.
Clang, clang!
Another two Skeleton Swordsman appeared. They half-knelt on the ground and formed a sharp angle with their iron shields to block the Wave Slash!
The power of the Wave Slash scattered along the angle of the iron shields and cut off the handrail on the second floor. Because of the good blocking, the two Skeleton Swordsman only received some damage from the recoil and took half a step back. They were still protecting Li Shuyi.
Li Shuyi and Bai Xiaowen cooperated well. They did not care about each other's skills. They activated [Demonic Flame Dance] and stabbed with their swords.
…
Shallow Marsh Teeth was the first to fall. He was an Agility-based storyline character. As a Swordsman, his attacks were blocked by the Skeleton Swordsman. Under Li Shuyi's all-out attack, he could not hold on for long.
The next to die was Watanabe Yoshihiro. He was still bleeding and was being chased by the Shadow Assassin. He wanted to shoot at Bai Xiaowen, but Bai Xiaowen shamelessly stood behind the two Skeleton Swordsman.
Two Level 5 Elites died, and only Shallow Marsh Fang dropped a Treasure Chest.
After Li Shuyi freed his hands, he led the four skeleton sword-shield-bearers down the stairs. The group of Matsuzaki Society members retreated faster than they had come.
The Morioka Gumi took this opportunity to counterattack. This time, with Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi as the arrowheads, they were invincible. On the other hand, the Matsuzaki Society had lost two generals in succession. Their morale had plummeted, and the situation of their defeat was already irreversible.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi didn't pursue further. They stayed in the headquarters and opened Shallow Moongya's treasure chest.
His combat rating was C, and he only had one chance to draw. In the end, he got a blue equipment.
[Snow-White Kendo Suit (Bound after pickup)]
[Rarity: Elite (Blue)]
[Equipment Position: Upper]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Attributes: Defense + 2, Agility + 2]
[Durability Note: Traditionally, only Kendo Masters are allowed to wear all-white equipment — except for girls.]
Li Shuyi changed out of his normal "Special Forces Combat Uniform" and put on the Kendo Suit. He looked valiant and heroic.
Bai Xiaowen pondered for a moment. The main reason was that Li Shuyi was handsome enough. If it were someone else, they might not be able to pull off such a flashy white.
Morioka Masao wiped his sweat and ran over. He suddenly knelt down. "Morioka Masao will never forget Shirai-sama's great kindness!"
"Well, there's no need for that. It's just a deal." Bai Xiaowen waved his hand. "I'm leaving Fukuoka."
"In such a hurry?" Morioka Masao was surprised.
Morioka Yoshihito also rushed over and urged him to stay. "Shirai-sama should rest here for the night. You can leave tomorrow morning."
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. "There's no need. I know what you're planning. I've already killed the remaining two generals of the Matsuzaki Society and fulfilled my promise. As for whether you can pursue the victory and destroy the Matsuzaki Society, that's your business. I don't have time to intervene in this matter. "
Morioka Yoshihito was a little embarrassed. "Shirai-sama misunderstood …"
"Just treat it as a misunderstanding." Bai Xiaowen was impatient to chat with Morioka Yoshihito. "Morioka, you'd better keep the deal between us to yourself. If I can destroy the Matsuzaki Society, I can also destroy the Morioka-gumi. Do you understand? "
Morioka Yoshihito nodded repeatedly.
In fact, Morioka Yoshihito was unwilling to say anything. He had used his own special channels to help Bai Xiaowen obtain a large number of dangerous goods for Bai Xiaowen. This kind of thing would only cause trouble if it was revealed.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi "borrowed" a car from the Morioka Gumi and drove back to Kusanagi Manor overnight.
"Now, let's talk about my plan …"
Bai Xiaowen drove the car and said in a low voice, "It's now the fifth day in the King of Fighters' plane world. My goal is … to destroy the Kusanagi clan! "
Li Shuyi was shocked. "How is that possible?"
It was no wonder that Li Shuyi was shocked. In the King of Fighters' plane world, the Kusanagi clan was really a symbol. After the decline of the Yagami clan, the Kusanagi and Kagura clans were the only three remaining clans with artifacts. They represented the backbone of the human camp.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "Don't you think about how many benefits you can get by destroying the Kusanagi clan?"
Li Shuyi thought for a while. "The treasure chests dropped by the two leaders, Kusanagi Aishi and Kusanagi Chai Shino, and … the reputation of the Orochi camp? Xiaowen, don't tell me you're thinking of switching to the Orochi camp. "
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and smiled. "Of course not. The Heavenly Celestial Race rejects humans and wants to purify them. We don't have the blood of the Orochi, so how can we be treated fairly? The reputation is just an illusion. My real goal is … the Kusanagi sword! "
The Kusanagi sword was one of the three artifacts guarded by the Kusanagi clan for generations.
Bai Xiaowen said, "Now, Kyo Kusanagi is going to Kyoto to participate in the competition. So, Daimon Goro and Mitsudo Onimaru, who are close to the Kusanagi clan, will definitely follow. Now, the Kusanagi clan is only left with one storyline powerhouse, Chai Shino. Although Kusanagi Aishi is a variable, it's not a big problem … "
"Are there any other hidden powerhouses in the Kusanagi clan?" Li Shuyi asked curiously.
"I stayed in the Kusanagi manor for a while, pretending to be sightseeing. In fact, I used my spiritual power to scan the area." Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "It turns out that this is a good opportunity … If the Kusanagi sword is enshrined in the Kusanagi clan, we have a high chance of getting it!"
Li Shuyi said, "But … the Kusanagi sword might have been taken away by Kyo Kusanagi. After all, he is the head of the Kusanagi clan."
