"Slap!"
The cold whip sliced through the air, leaving a bright red scar on the body in front of her. The woman who was hung up in the air twitched, but she resisted the pain and didn't make a sound. This made Catherine, who was holding the long whip, very dissatisfied. She turned her wrist and whipped Carley's waist again. This time, she increased her strength. The tip of the whip was like a venomous snake, tearing Carley's skin. In an instant, blood dripped onto the ground.
But she underestimated the will of a ninja. Karai still kept her mouth shut and did not make a sound.
"How dare you lie to me!"
Catherine was like an angry kitten, baring her fangs and claws at Karai who was hanging in the air. Karai did not want to see Catherine's face, because every time she saw it, it was like a reminder of her failure. For a proud person like her, failure was shameful.
"Speak! Apologize! "
Catherine reached out and pinched Carly's bruised body. She whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, Carly.
"Apologize and I'll let you go!"
"Don't even think about it! You just have a good brother! If it weren't for those meddling turtles! "
Karai finally spoke, but it made the little girl even more furious. She jumped down from the chair and waved her hand. The sound of the long whip whipping through the air was heard again.
"Slap!"
The commotion in the basement could not be hidden from Saber and Robin. The former was sitting on the sofa calmly reading the newspaper, while the latter was a little worried. Robin hesitated for a moment and said,
"Do you want me to bring her here? She's not an adult yet. "
"Alright, that's just a child's temperament. She'll naturally be furious after being lied to. It's good to take this opportunity to let her relive the darkness of this world."
Saber waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Let her play. Anyway, she can't even think about leaving Gotham until she proves to me that she can protect herself."
Saying this, Seiber shrugged.
"I can't always be her nanny, right?"
He looked at Robin. "Tell me about you. Have you made up your mind?"
Hearing this question, Robin was silent for a moment. He put down the teacup in his hand and touched his wrist. Under the cover of his clothes, there was a special metal bracelet.
"Yes, in a few days, I will be following Tian to Kunlun. It is said that I will only be able to return when the Holy Land opens again in the next ten years. So, when I'm not around, you have to send a bouquet of flowers to my father every year. He likes white roses, and … "
Robin hesitated for a moment and said embarrassedly.
"If the huntress is in trouble, please help her, for my sake."
"Oh? The Huntress from Gotham? "
Saber narrowed his eyes, revealing a smile that all men would understand. He spread his hands exaggeratedly and said, "Look, look, our Robin has grown up. She even knows how to date. Have you slept with her?"
This straightforward question made Robin roll his eyes. In the end, he nodded and there was a look of relief on his face.
"Okay, I admit that I like her. But between us, it might be a mutual need. Anyway, don't think too much. If she chooses to be your enemy, you can do whatever you want."
Robin stood up, stretched his shoulders, and walked out of the living room.
"Between personal and family, I've made the wrong choice once. I won't make the wrong choice a second time."
Looking at his back, Saber shook his head. He lowered his head and began to read the newspaper. There was a rare peaceful smile on his face.
In the basement under his feet, Catherine had already stopped the whipping that made her gasp for breath. She realized that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't use pain to subdue this despicable woman in front of her. So, she rolled her eyes, put down the whip, calmed her breathing, and snapped her fingers.
The next moment, a gray shadow appeared under her feet. It hugged her feet and purred like a puppy. It looked very cute. Catherine picked it up and put it on her shoulder. She walked over to Carley with a smirk. When Carley saw the gray puppy lying on Catherine's shoulder and looking at her curiously, a trace of fear appeared on his face, which was covered in whip marks but had never given in.
Clearly, he knew what it was.
"Shh."
Catherine put a finger to her mouth and made a shushing gesture. She stroked the puppy's head, which kept sticking out its tongue, and said to Carley,
"You know what this is, right? This is a treasure of the Hand … Although I don't know why I can control it a little, it doesn't matter! "
Catherine rubbed her fingers together and spoke in a low voice, "That's enough.
"Just a little bit is enough. Come on, be good and let it bite you! It won't hurt much. "
Carly opened her mouth to yell, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Catherine swiftly covered her mouth. The puppy on her shoulder also sensed the will from its owner and instantly turned from a cute posture to a ferocious one. It leaped from Catherine's shoulder to Carly's shoulder, aimed at her snow-white neck, and bit it.
Crack.
The bite didn't leave a wound, but Carley curled up in pain. Catherine held her affectionately and untied her from the chains. A bedsheet was even placed over her naked body. Catherine reached out and arranged Carley's hair. She sat cross-legged on the floor and let Carley's head rest on her lap.
"Look, I'll definitely be grounded after I go back to Gotham. It'll be very miserable. I don't know when I'll be able to come out again. So, when I'm not around, you have to take care of my foot gang for me …"
Catherine's cute face revealed a victorious expression. She waved her little fist.
"Didn't you just say that I'm just relying on a good brother? I'll prove it to you now. Even without Saber, I can still make a name for myself. Hm! Let's start with reclaiming my foot gang! "
She turned her finger, and the cute little puppy ran towards her. Catherine played with it, and then said to Carley, whose face was as pale as ash, "Carley, I'm sorry, Carley.
"Don't be so sad. Come and smile. You'll be Catherine's top general in the future, just like how Sergues was in Saber's place. See how well I treat you."
She said to herself, "Now, I'll let you go. Although more than half of the foot gang ninjas in New York were killed by Saber, it's okay. We can recruit again. As for the target …"
Catherine scratched her head. She raised her chin and thought for a few minutes. Then, she said with uncertainty,
"I haven't received a letter from Xavier Academy for a long time. I don't know how my former underlings are doing. They seem to have gone missing. How about this, you help me find them first. This is your … Hm, your recruitment test!"
After she finished speaking, she patted Carley's shoulder like an old woman.
"Don't disappoint Madam Catherine ~"
Carley didn't want to pay attention to Catherine, who was dreaming like a young girl. However, the pressure from his soul forced him to flip over from the ground and kneel in front of Catherine in humiliation.
"Yes! Madam, please wait for the good news. "
While Carley was bowing down to Catherine, in the far east, on the Japanese Island that had changed beyond recognition, in a secret mansion, the real ruler of the foot gang, Shleide, was studying the secrets of a great demon. He was wearing heavy and exquisite armor. Just by sitting there, he looked like a ferocious beast.
He was also a mysterious figure. According to the big mouse ninja, Pliny, Shleide had lived for more than 200 years. A powerful soul from another world resided in his body, giving him unimaginable power and longevity. Now, Shleide was following this power and continuing to explore. He was a person who thirsted for power and would not be satisfied with what he had.
Beside his hand, on an exquisite and quaint wooden shelf, there was a special straight-edged sword, or more appropriately, a straight-edged sword. It was a typical Japanese two-handed sword, with a perfect shape and a mysterious pattern engraved on the handle. Every few minutes, a purple lightning would jump on the blade and then turn golden, making this straight-edged sword look full of a mysterious sense of power.
The Ancient Teng Sword, a famous sword that was said to be from the distant Warring States Period. It could cut through everything in the world, and at the same time, its body was unshakable. This was also the weapon that changed Shleide's fate. After he obtained this sword, he truly embarked on his own path of domination.
"Hmm?"
Shlaide, who was studying an ancient book, suddenly felt uneasy. At his level of strength, there were very few things that could cause him to feel uneasy. He was very concerned about this kind of instinctive warning. Thus, he put down the ancient book in his hand and stood up from the chair. The steel armor on his body made clanking sounds as he moved. It seemed to be filled with a special kind of power.
He walked to the window and stretched out his hand to push it open. He looked at the silent forest in the distance. After a while, he coughed lightly.
Swish! Swish!
Two black figures appeared on the ground behind him as if out of thin air. They knelt there on one knee like two stone statues.
"Mizuno, Koga, summon the ninjas who are still alive!"
Shleide's voice was not unpleasant to the ears. Frankly speaking, there was a hint of mature magnetism in it.
"I have a premonition that something bad has happened further east. That should be the direction of New York. It seems that our vanguard has made a mistake."
"Master, should we take the captured monsters with us?"
The ninja on the left asked. "Or should we kill them on the spot?"
"The Ancient Teng Sword is very hungry."
Shleide said something that did not make any sense, but his subordinates already understood what he meant. They stood up, took a step back, and disappeared from the room as if they had appeared.
"How cruel, Shleide."
A voice suddenly appeared in the room. Its tone was strange, as if it was reciting a poem. "If your subordinates knew that you were using their souls and flesh to nurture the Hundred Demons, do you think they would immediately start a riot?"
"Hehe."
Shleide laughed. He spread out his hands and said in a magnetic voice, "Who dares to come? Who dares to challenge me? "
"I gave them power. As for the Hundred Demons, that is just the price of power … Besides, am I not using my own flesh and blood to nurture you? Tengu … You see, as long as I am strong enough, you can only be used by me, right? "
"That's right, that's right."
The voice called Tengu continued, "Not everyone is crazy enough to want to be the ruler of the Demon World like you. However, they might not know that on the day of the Hundred Demons' Night, they will give up everything for their master, a cruel executioner. You destroyed your foot with your own hands, and then … you seem to want to destroy your world with your own hands!"
"Tsk tsk, you are really cruel!"
Shleide was unmoved. His nose under the helmet twitched as if he had smelled a fresher wind. He said softly,
"But a chaotic world is coming … a real chaotic world. With the human world as the chessboard and all of us as chess pieces, who would be willing to accept it?"
"Hehe … Who can be sure that I won't be one of the chess players? Look, didn't I do everything well in Japan? The Five Dragon Guardian Ninjas are still blindly trying to expel the demons and gods in Japan. They will never know that I was the one who planned all of this … If I could succeed the first time, why can't I succeed the second time? "
Shleide's hands, which were covered in heavy armor, leaned against the window frame in front of him. He looked at everything in front of him greedily. There was only a dead forest that had lost all life, but in his eyes, it was as beautiful as the scenery of the entire world.
"My ambition … This is just the beginning!"
