Not only were the seven vampire dukes attacked by the sickle weasel-like wind blades, but even the bats that Grand Duke William had transformed into were also hit.
Whoosh!
Sharp cutting sounds rang out one after another. Shredded clothes and broken limbs flew up in a disorderly manner.
Although these vampire dukes had speed and reaction that were far beyond that of ordinary people, none of them noticed that Rogge's white eyes had turned into a blood-red color that was very similar to theirs.
Three tomoe Sharingan!
When Wind Release: Tornado hit these vampire dukes, Rogge opened his Sharingan.
With the Sharingan's unparalleled dynamic vision and rich experience honed over many years of combat, Rogge accurately predicted the landing spot of these vampire dukes and used Wind Release: Vacuum Renbo in advance.
Whether it was Tornado or Vacuum Renbo, they were not particularly powerful Wind Release Ninjutsu.
But as long as they were used properly, even the most basic ninjutsu could produce an effect beyond imagination.
After the end of Vacuum Renbo, Rogge did not continue to use ninjutsu. Instead, he stood calmly on the arch of the wooden spindle wall and looked at these vampire dukes with a smile.
Although the sickle weasel-like wind blades did not cause fatal damage to them, they seriously destroyed their image.
The damage was not high, but it was extremely insulting!
In addition to Grand Duke William, the other seven vampire dukes had similar thoughts.
Their clothes were messy, and their hair was messy.
Coupled with the wounds that had not been completely healed and the blood stained on their bodies, these vampire dukes were as embarrassed as they could be.
Looking at their current image, rather than the legendary noble vampires, it was better to say that they were special lovers who had just experienced a forbidden party.
Although their image was a bit embarrassing, these vampire dukes were old monsters who had lived for who knows how many years.
They quickly adjusted their state of mind and recovered from their injuries.
As for the damaged clothes, they could do nothing about it.
After all, not everyone could repair their clothes directly with energy like Hila.
"The warm-up is over, it's time to start the real show!"
Rogge ignored the cold eyes of the vampire dukes and jumped down from the wooden spindle wall, summoning the Kusanagi sword.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you get injured, it's not something that can be recovered by consuming some energy."
As soon as his voice fell, Rogge summoned the orange-red Hellfire and let it wrap around the Kusanagi sword.
The moment the hellfire appeared, the countenances of Grand Duke William and the others turned extremely grim.
As dark creatures, not only were they familiar with Hellfire, but they were also very familiar with it.
Although Johnny was the only Ghost Rider still alive, there had been more than one in the past.
It is said that after the Flood, God discovered that the sinful nature of man had not changed.
However, he had promised that he would no longer use cruel means like the Great Flood to punish humans. Therefore, he developed and created the second batch of Spirits of Vengeance, which were called Living Weapons. He let the Spirits of Vengeance supervise the evil nature of humans.
The Spirit of Vengeance descended from heaven in the form of a rain of fire and fused with the soul of its human host. In the end, it evolved into a Ghost Rider and shouldered the responsibility of cleansing the sins of the mortal world.
Although Johnny also had the Spirit of Vengeance, he was a special kind of Ghost Rider.
Because in his body, there was still the power of the Elemental Demon Lord Zartanos. (Note 1)
Ghost Riders were knights who cleansed the sins of the mortal world, but this didn't mean that they would only attack humans.
Compared to humans, dark creatures like vampires and werewolves were more to the Ghost Riders' liking.
Therefore, in the past few thousand years, the vampires had been harassed by Ghost Riders.
But later on, for some unknown reason, the Ghost Riders disappeared one after another, and the vampires finally escaped the fate of being hunted down by the Ghost Riders.
Although the Ghost Riders had disappeared, the deep memories left behind by Hellfire wouldn't disappear just like that.
Lightning Body Blink!
Rogge wasn't interested in explaining Hellfire to Grand Duke William and the others, and once again used Lightning Body Blink.
Although he had also disappeared, this time, Grand Duke William and the others were finally able to see Rogge's route clearly.
The Hellfire wrapped around the Kusanagi sword was like a guiding line, leaving behind an orange-red arc in the air.
Of course, Rogge knew that Hellfire would leave traces in the air, but he didn't take it to heart at all.
Because seeing it didn't mean that he could block it.
It was like seeing an afterimage left behind by an enemy who was too fast.
Although he could see the afterimage, he couldn't keep up with the enemy's speed.
After appearing in front of a vampire duke as if he had teleported, Rogge didn't hesitate and directly swung the Kusanagi sword in his hand.
Facing the Kusanagi sword wrapped in Hellfire, the vampire duke didn't dare to be careless and hurriedly retreated.
In the past, the vampires who had died tragically under Hellfire had used their lives to leave behind an incomparably valuable advice for the vampires.
That was, there was no need to try to use blood magic to resist Hellfire.
Whether it was an energy shield like the Blood Shield or a physical defense like the Earth Wall, it was impossible to block Hellfire's attack.
This had nothing to do with whether energy or physical matter could block Hellfire. It was purely because Hellfire restrained the vampire's blood power.
In front of Hellfire, blood power was like butter thrown into a pot of oil. It melted on a whim and didn't give any face at all.
The vampire duke Rogge chose first wasn't the weakest among the eight dukes, but he wasn't the strongest either.
What was more troublesome was that he wasn't the fastest.
In front of Rogge, who had used Lightning Body Blink, the vampire's pride in speed was like that of an ordinary human.
Chi!
The vampire duke, who had just recovered his right arm, didn't even take a few steps back before Rogge's Kusanagi sword slashed across his neck like the Grim Reaper's scythe.
As the top fighting force of the vampires, duke-level vampires would never be burned to ashes again.
Even if they were hit in the heart by an ultraviolet bullet or directly exposed to the sun, they wouldn't be reduced to ashes.
However, at this moment, the vampire duke whose head had been chopped off by Logue's sword quickly burned into a pile of black ashes, just like the lowest level of vampires.
With a fatal attack and the burning effect of Hellfire, Rogge let the vampire duke die in the same miserable way as a low-level vampire.
"First one!"
After dealing with the vampire duke, Rogge said softly in a voice that Grand Duke William and the others could hear.
Fried fish!
This was the game term he had explained to Grand Duke William and the others just now.
However, what Grand Duke William and the others didn't know was that the fried fish Rogge was talking about wasn't him bullying the marquises or count-level vampires, but the eight vampire dukes.
Bullying the marquises and counts was fried fish to him.
Bullying the dukes like Grand Duke William was also fried fish.
Since they were all fish, there was no need to care too much about the level of the fish.
After all, in front of kings, silver and gold were the same.
"Wait, maybe we can talk again!"
After watching a vampire duke die in Rogge's hands, Grand Duke William realized how big the gap was between them and Rogge.
"Talk again? I gave you a chance three days ago, but unfortunately, you didn't cherish it! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Rogge disappeared again.
Just as Grand Duke William was about to look around to see which duke would be chosen by Rogge, Rogge appeared in front of him like a ghost.
Among these dukes, Grand Duke William was the only vampire duke who had dealt with Rogge.
However, this didn't mean that Rogge would have any friendship with him and exclude him from the list of targets.
Although Grand Duke William didn't expect to be Rogge's second target, his reaction speed wasn't slow at all. In fact, he was even faster than the dead duke.
In terms of strength, Grand Duke William was definitely the strongest among the eight dukes.
The Bruch clan was the clan that was best at fighting among the Blood Breeds.
As the duke of the Bruch clan, Grand Duke William's combat experience and skills were naturally the strongest among the Bruch clan.
Just as the Kusanagi sword was about to hit him, Grand Duke William made a decision that even Rogge praised.
Grand Duke William didn't choose to retreat or dodge. Instead, he took the initiative to step forward and close the distance between himself and Rogge.
One had to admit that Grand Duke William's idea was very creative and effective.
In terms of combat, the Kusanagi sword was definitely a close combat weapon.
However, this didn't mean that the Kusanagi sword would be perfect in close combat.
When the distance was shortened to the point where they were almost face to face, the Kusanagi sword would be limited by the distance and unable to display the effects it should have.
This was also why a dagger was more useful than a sword in a real close combat.
Relying on this method of closing the distance, Grand Duke William perfectly avoided the Kusanagi sword attack and blocked Rogge's right hand with his left hand.
Interesting!
Looking at Grand Duke William who was only twenty or thirty centimeters away from him, Rogge once again praised Grand Duke William's combat intuition and fighting skills.
After his right hand was blocked by Grand Duke William, Rogge didn't hesitate and made a move that was also beyond Grand Duke William's expectations.
He took the initiative to let go of his right hand and gave up the Kusanagi sword.
The moment Rogge let go of his right hand, Grand Duke William realized that something was wrong.
But at this time, he didn't have time to change his tactics.
Grand Duke William's left hand blocked Rogge's right hand, while his right hand was like a sharp claw that grabbed Rogge's neck.
Just as Grand Duke William's right claw was about to grab Rogge's neck, Rogge's left hand hit his right wrist first and pushed his right hand away.
Playing close combat in front of a ninja who had mastered Gentle Fist – Eight Trigrams 64 Palms, Rogge didn't know for a moment whether to praise Grand Duke William's courage or arrogance.
