"Then how do we deal with them?" After listening to Onigirō, Ye Fan asked.
"So far, I don't know how to eliminate them." Onigirō frowned and said, "Only by engaging them in close combat will we have a chance to find their weakness."
Ye Fan nodded.
"Mr. Matsumoto, what do you think?" Chi Yao asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
"I would like to hear everyone's opinions." Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked at everyone in the meeting hall and said calmly, "If you all have the will to fight, we will fight with all our might. They are powerful, but we are not to be trifled with. Of course, if you do not dare to fight, I will not force you. Before the seven Netherworld Ghost Ships arrive, I will arrange for a fast ship to escort all of you to the safe sea."
"If we leave, what about you, Mr. Matsumoto?" Chi Yao raised her eyebrows and asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
"Although I, Matsumoto, am not very capable, I will never be afraid of the smallest thing. I will never back down," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said sternly, "Even if I am left with only one soldier, I will do my best to live and die with the Wuji!"
After the experts heard this, they looked at each other.
"Master, the scouts in front have reported that the seven Netherworld Ghost Ships are extremely fast. They are less than fifty miles away from here."
The voice of the gatekeeper ninja came from outside the cabin.
"Pass down my order. Tell all combat ninjas to prepare for battle," Matsumoto Takeyoshi ordered with a cold expression.
"Yes!" The gatekeeper ninja responded and turned around to pass down the order.
"Everyone, time is of the essence. Please make a decision as soon as possible," Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked around at the experts and said.
"We're here to help Mr. Matsumoto, not to eat and drink for free. It's not the style of us, the Five Children of Japan, to flee before a battle," the green-eyed boy in a gray cloak spoke first. "We, the Five Children, are willing to fight the enemy together with Mr. Matsumoto."
"Count me in," said the man in blue, Sato Kawaki. "Damn it, I don't believe that a bunch of demons can do anything!"
"I'll stay too," Fujita Takeshi said slowly. "Since I've already promised to help Mr. Matsumoto, I'll keep my word. Even if I die in battle, I'll have no regrets!"
"Count me in," Kamehameha said with a smile. "This old man has lived for more than half of his life, but I have never seen the legendary Netherworld Ghost Ship. This time, this old man wants to see for himself if they are as powerful as the legends say!"
"Running away from a battle is not something a real man would do," Yokoyama Jugo said calmly. "I won't leave either. I'll stay and help Mr. Matsumoto fight against the enemy!"
"No matter what, I won't leave," Funakoshi Shinichi, who was wearing a large kimono and wooden clogs, said calmly.
"In life, the most important thing is to keep your word. Although I, Bamu Changqing, don't have the ability to deal with demons and resentful ghosts, I still want to give them a try and see if it works," Bamu Changqing, who was wearing a snow-white ninja outfit, said calmly.
"My wife and I are also willing to stay and do our best," Yamamoto Chiyao said solemnly.
"This time, I can see the legendary Netherworld Ghost Ship, and there are seven of them. It's rare. I want to take this opportunity to study it," Onigirō said to Matsumoto Takeyoshi with a smile.
"What about Chi Yao -san?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi looked at Chi Yao and asked.
"If I don't fight, I won't be able to live up to my nickname," Chiyao said with a smile. "I'm the same as Onigirō -san. I'm very interested in the Japanese ship filled with thousand-year-old ghosts."
"What about Bufan -san?" Matsumoto Takeyoshi asked Ye Fan.
"Why? Does Mr. Matsumoto think that I'll avoid the battle?" Ye Fan asked Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
In all of Ye Fan's actions, the word "escape" was never part of his style.
"Alright." Matsumoto Takeyoshi's spirits were lifted. "Since all of you are so united, let's take on the seven Netherworld Ghost Ships and fight them!"
Whoosh!
The two rows of experts simultaneously faced Matsumoto Takeyoshi!
"We're willing to listen to Sir's orders!" the experts replied in unison.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi stood up from his seat and said loudly to the elites, "The Nether Spirits are coming with a vengeance this time. I hope that all of you can temporarily put aside your misunderstandings and work together to fight against the enemy!" Matsumoto Takeyoshi stood up from his seat and said to the elites.
Whoosh!
The experts lowered their heads in unison!
The meaning of Matsumoto Takeyoshi's words was obvious.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together.
The temperaments of these experts were completely different, so they gradually formed their own circles as they interacted with each other.
Among them, some regretted that they had not met each other earlier and drank a thousand cups of wine with close friends; some disdained to meet each other and spoke more than half a word when they did not agree.
Matsumoto Takeyoshi was well aware of this.
Now that the battle was imminent, they had to temporarily put aside their internal conflicts and work together to fight against the enemy. Only then would they be able to maximize the effectiveness of a team battle!
"For this team battle, I've already drawn up a battle plan based on everyone's cultivation. I hope that everyone will act accordingly," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said to the experts.
Whoosh!
The experts raised their heads and listened attentively.
"Mr. Ichikaku," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said loudly.
"Here." Qingkong Yihe, who was wearing a white cloak, stepped out of the ranks.
"Mr. Onimu," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said again.
"Here." Onigirō, who was wearing a black cloak, stepped out of the ranks.
"The two of you, Mr. Chi Yao, and Bufan -kun will form the first echelon and be responsible for the first wave of attacks. Think of a way to find out the characteristics and weaknesses of the Netherworld Ghost Ships," Matsumoto Takeyoshi gave the first order.
Among the experts, these four could be considered as the cornerstone. They were the experts among the experts and were extremely strong!
Among the four, Onigirō, Chi Yao, and Qingkong Yihe were all proficient in the art of destroying ghosts and spirits. Especially Qingkong Yihe, this person's cultivation was extremely high. He was an all-rounder with his spiritual energy cultivation, supreme blade techniques, and overbearing special techniques.
As for Ye Fan, there was no need to talk about him.
He was the one who transcended the tribulation, the monarch of the Demon Realm, and the reincarnation of Eldritch.
Any one of these three points was enough to show disdain and suppress all the heroes!
Once the four of them worked together, their combat effectiveness and the power they released was unimaginable even for Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
Letting these four strongest experts be the vanguard of the first wave of attacks and the vanguard to find the weaknesses of the Netherworld Ghost Ships was the most suitable.
"Yes," Qingkong Yihe and Onigirō glanced at Ye Fan and Chi Yao and replied in unison.
After answering, Qingkong Yihe nodded slightly at Ye Fan. Ye Fan returned the gesture.
The two of them had fought briefly because of the Green-eyed Boy. Qingkong Yihe had even injured his own meridians to seek Ye Fan's forgiveness.
Even so, the two of them did not become enemies.
In a way, the two of them even appreciated each other.
Onigirō also nodded at Chi Yao.
Chi Yao also returned the gesture.
The two of them had one thing in common, and that was that they were both top experts in Yin Refining Technique!
One of them was a rising star in the Japanese martial arts world, while the other was the head of the Cuiming Hall's guardians. Both of them had ghostly aura and were peerless in their techniques!
"Mr. Sato, Mr. Fujita, Mr. Kameho, Mr. Green-eyed." Matsumoto Takeyoshi called out again.
"Yes."
The man in blue, Akara Sato, who was proficient in the Nether Spirit Slash, Tsuyoshi Fujita, who was born with Yin Yang Eyes, Kamehameha, who was proficient in the Five Elements Technique, and the head of the Five Children, Green-eyed Boy, walked out of the formation.
"The four of you have great combat strength, and you're proficient in the Yin Refining Technique and Yin Destroying Technique. You can form the second attack echelon," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said to the four of them. "When the first echelon finds the ghosts' weakness, you'll be in charge of attacking with all your might!"
"Yes!" The four of them answered in unison.
Akara Sato gripped his battle sword tightly, looking excited.
The missions he carried out recently were all about finding things. It was boring and uninteresting, and he had never fought with others to his heart's content. This time, when he encountered the Nether Ghouls with such outstanding combat strength, he naturally felt an indescribable excitement!
His opponent was the Nether Spirit Ship, and his strongest sword technique was the Nether Spirit Slash. Using the Nether Spirit Slash against the Nether Spirit Ship was simply heaven's will!
This time, it must be a fight to the death!
Akara Sato thought to himself!
When he looked at the Green-eyed Boy, he was even more excited than Akara Sato!
His eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth were curled into a smile. He was inexplicably excited!
Ever since he came to the Great Ming Dynasty, bad luck seemed to have been following him. It was like a dog skin plaster that he could not shake off!
First, he encountered the Five Elements Masters led by Jinchan from the Pear Blossom Palace. Over there, he did not gain any advantage at all. After he arrived at Matsumoto Takeyoshi's place, he did not receive special attention from Matsumoto Takeyoshi as he had expected. Among the masters, his status was neither high nor low. What made him most angry was that he had provoked Ye Fan's two ghost servants, which caused him to be brutally beaten up by Ye Fan! If his fifth brother, Qingkong Yihe, had not appeared to help him, he was afraid that his bones and tendons would have been broken!
What made him even more depressed was that he had not had the chance to use his forbidden technique!
Encountering the Netherworld Ghost Ship this time made him very excited.
If the opponent was really as powerful as Onigirō had said, then his forbidden technique could be used justifiably!
At that time, everyone would have a whole new level of respect for him!
Fujita Takeshi, who always did things flawlessly, and Kamehameha, who had experienced hundreds of battles, were calm. Both of them were Mutant Technique experts, and Mutant Technique experts had always been calm. This was because using Mutant Technique required a very strong and calm heart. Once there was a ripple in the heart, the power of the Mutant Technique would be greatly reduced.
Therefore, the closer the battle was, the more they needed to calm their hearts.
"Miss Haruko." Matsumoto Takeyoshi called out.
"Here." Sakuragi Haruko, who was wearing a pink dress and had a beautiful face, walked out of the formation.
She was ranked second among the Five Children of Japan. Her swordsmanship was outstanding, and her ability to control water was unparalleled.
"Miss Haruko is good at controlling water. You can stay on the warship," Matsumoto Takeyoshi said. "That way, not only can you protect the warship, but you can also attack from a distance. You can attack and retreat, killing two birds with one stone."
"Yes." Sakuragi Haruko replied.
Qingkong Yihe looked at Sakuragi Haruko, his eyes full of tenderness.
"The rest of you will form the third attack echelon and wait for an opportunity to move. You will support the first and second echelon at any time and join the battle!" Matsumoto Takeyoshi continued.
