Chapter 911: Sage Jutsu? Crimson Vajra! (Combined Chapter)
The Daimyo Palace Castle of the Land of Fire.
It should be the largest and most luxurious Daimyo Palace Castle among the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations.
It occupies almost one-third of the entire Capital City.
The Palaces, large and small, are absolutely grand and magnificent in the Ninja World.
Each Courtyard is bright and spacious, with lush flowers and leaves, and even small rivers winding through them.
These things often make the Daimyo of the other four nations envious.
But there's no helping it; the Land of Fire is just so uniquely blessed in This World.
However, this magnificent Daimyo Palace Castle is now filled with Purple Qi, with corpses strewn everywhere.
A not-very-strong, but sufficiently noticeable Smell of Blood drifts through every corner.
[Boom!]
The sloping roof ridge of the most magnificent Main Hall, made of Hinoki Bark Roofing, suddenly exploded from within with a powerful Strength.
In an instant, the entire Main Hall collapsed, stirring up a large area of Rumble and Thick Smoke.
[Swish swish swish swish...]
Dozens of blurry Afterimages, each displaying Extraordinary Means, flew out before the Main Hall completely turned into Ruins.
Most of them, as soon as they split into two factions and landed on the Open Ground outside, charged towards their chosen Opponents in a display of 'Rapport' and began a fierce battle.
Both sides had a clear understanding of themselves.
Especially those Samurai who only used Chakra to enhance their Physical Ability and Weapons, they decisively targeted the ordinary Members on the CP8 side who clearly lacked the Art Style of an Expert.
The ordinary Members on the CP8 side didn't mind either.
Compared to the twelve Guardian Ninja with powerful Aura.
These Samurai were clearly easier to deal with.
Although the Merit would be much less this way, the advantage was greater Safety.
Expert against Expert, weak against weak.
It seemed to be the Battlefield Rules tacitly agreed upon by everyone.
Levi, who had just returned from the Zero Magic World, was seen.
While moving at High-Speed Movement in the air using practiced Moonwalk, he simultaneously used the various Sword Techniques of Wind Breathing with the Twin Swords in his hands, fighting two Guardian Shinobi who were comparable to Elite Jonin.
From time to time, he would also use his Devil Fruit Ability to block the various Fire Release and Lightning Release attacks coming his way.
This also added many colorful, dreamlike Bubbles to this Battlefield.
On the other side.
Lubbock, whose Ancestral World was the Imperial Arms World.
Was controlling a large number of Fine Threads created by the Imperial Arms Chameleon.
He was engaged in a fierce battle in a corner of a Palace with a Guardian Shinobi skilled in Wind Release and Swordsmanship.
Pink Spear Shadows filled the sky constantly collided with Blade Lights wrapped in Wind Release Chakra.
Amidst the Clanging Sounds of 'ding ding dang dang', brilliant Sparks splattered outwards.
The threads of the Imperial Arms Chameleon came from the Hair of the Super Dangerous Beast Shen He.
They possessed considerable Toughness and Sharpness, not inferior to the String-String Fruit at all.
In terms of usage Style, Lubbock preferred to condense large amounts of Net compared to Doflamingo.
He would create soft yet hard Spears, blades and axes, Armor, and other Melee Combat Equipment.
Of course, he would also use Net to set up various Traps as surprise moves.
It's worth mentioning that the Cold Weapons he created with Net possessed the One-Hit Kill Effect under his Development.
As long as they successfully hit the Target's Body, these Net could spread within the opponent's Body.
They could even entwine around the Heart and cut it open!
Among them, Lubbock liked to use the Spear as his Strongest Weapon the most.
Because it possessed multiple Advantages that matched the Imperial Arms Ability, such as length, thrust, and flexibility.
After joining CP8.
With the help of the Cultivator who taught them Breathing Style.
They determined the Breathing Style School suitable for Lubbock's Physique.
It turned out to be Love Breathing, which surprised everyone!
That's right.
This Love Breathing was a Branch School specifically created by Mitsuri Kanroji based on Flame Breathing to complement her Nichirin Blade, which was as flexible as a whip and had strong Toughness.
This Love Breathing was said to be 'able to complete defense while launching attacks, achieving a better balance of offense and defense than Water Breathing'.
However, because the Difficulty of learning was too high, and it was particularly easy to injure oneself.
So, even though there were quite a few girls in the Demon Slayer Corps back then.
Surprisingly, no one was willing to learn Love Breathing.
But who knew that Lubbock, this Imperial Arms Worlder, perfectly met all its Requirements.
Mitsuri Kanroji, now a CP2 Member responsible for recruiting and training new Agents in the World and Otherworlds, was also overjoyed when she heard about Lubbock.
She had always wanted to find someone willing to learn Love Breathing.
However, every time she was tactfully refused by the other party for various reasons.
Now she had finally found a successor!
The only slight pity was that Lubbock wasn't a girl.
And Lubbock also had a good Favor towards Mitsuri Kanroji, this extremely cute pink and green girl.
But his Feelings for Najenda could only make him sigh in his Heart.
He even called Najenda in the Imperial Arms World one night and teased, "If you don't accept me soon, I might move on to someone else~"
Unexpectedly, Najenda replied, "Oh? That's great, get married as soon as possible, I'll try my best to make time to attend."
This made Lubbock feel disappointed for a while.
Although he often hit on pretty girls he met, he considered his love for Najenda to be faithful.
But Najenda, on the other hand, understood clearly that she and Lubbock were not suitable.
A Women who placed Importance on career and work and a Child who liked romance and dating.
Even if they were together, they would only feel happy at the beginning.
After a long Time, Conflicts would definitely arise due to incompatible Personalities.
In short.
Lubbock's romance ended before it even began.
And now.
Whenever Lubbock swung the White String Spear in his hand to launch an attack.
It would definitely produce pink Phantoms and floating Hearts.
To be honest.
Such a girlish Special Effect.
Lubbock initially felt very embarrassed and even refused to use it for a time.
But under Mitsuri Kanroji's care and comfort, he gradually accepted Love Breathing and made it a Habit.
Especially when he practiced Love Breathing with Mitsuri Kanroji.
Along with their dancing Postures and Blade Light and Spear Shadow.
A dreamlike scene of pink bubbles surrounded them.
This made Lubbock believe that Mitsuri Kanroji was his life partner.
And with his Personality, it was difficult for him to have a secret crush.
Within a few days, he took advantage of a break to express his affection to Mitsuri Kanroji and ask her to be his girlfriend.
This naturally startled Mitsuri Kanroji greatly.
She had always regarded Lubbock as her first student and taught him seriously, never thinking of anything else.
So she said to Lubbock on the spot, "Thank you very much for your Will, but I already have someone I like now, although that person might not even know yet..."
This was like a bolt from the blue for Lubbock.
But upon hearing the latter half of Mitsuri Kanroji's sentence, he regained his Spirit and said to her, "Since that's the case, can you give me a chance for fair competition?"
Mitsuri Kanroji was very hesitant, but seeing Lubbock's resolute Gaze, she still nodded in agreement, but added a Condition.
"The husband in my Heart must be stronger than me, have the Ability for my Protection, and on this basis, must truly accept everything about me, such as my hair color, my appetite, and of course, the most important thing is that we must like each other."
Mitsuri Kanroji's purpose for joining the Demon Slayer Corps back then.
Was to find a good husband who was stronger than her and could protect her.
Lubbock agreed without hesitation.
He, who in the Original Copy didn't have much Desire for Strength, swore in his Heart from then on to desperately become Stronger.
But who knew that the next afternoon.
Obanai Iguro, who was also a CP2 Instructor like Mitsuri Kanroji, unexpectedly came knocking and wanted to fight him.
At that time, Obanai Iguro said this to Lubbock.
"Didn't you want fair competition?"
"Then let's do it!"
At this, Lubbock immediately understood that the other party also liked Mitsuri Kanroji.
That day, the CP8 Branch Building became very lively.
Almost everyone who wasn't on a Mission ran over to watch the battle.
The leaders above seemed happy to see it happen and had no intention of stopping it at all.
This allowed Lubbock and Obanai Iguro's Rival's Battle to proceed smoothly.
Only Mitsuri Kanroji stood in the middle, torn.
Her Will actually leaned more towards Obanai Iguro.
She was also very moved by his willingness to stand out and confess with Operation.
After all, they had spent more time together.
If Lubbock hadn't appeared.
Mitsuri Kanroji would probably already be with Obanai Iguro.
However, for Mitsuri Kanroji.
Lubbock was not only her first student but also the first boy who sincerely confessed to her on his own initiative.
Therefore, the kind-hearted her really didn't want to hurt the other party.
Plus, she had only just agreed yesterday to give him a chance for fair competition.
As for the Result...
"I won't lose to you again, Iguro no Bastard!!"
Lubbock fought with increasing bravery, gradually dominating the Wind Blade Samurai opposite him and attacking fiercely.
The next second.
A trace of red Flowing Light flashed in Lubbock's resolute eyes.
Facing the seemingly impenetrable group of Hotei coming at him.
He continuously dodged with incredible movements, closing the Distance between them like a ghost.
"It's like this again, Perception Ability of such Difficulty... Uh ah!!"
Just as this Guardian Shinobi stared intently at the approaching Lubbock with an ashen Expression.
His entire Body was tightly bound by Fine Threads in the blink of an eye.
Even his Long Saber was stuck close to his Body, making it difficult to move.
This made him couldn't help but let out a terrified shout.
It was only then that he discovered that the surrounding Air was already filled with crisscrossing nets of Net at some unknown point.
And the source of these threads was the Red Glove on Lubbock's hand.
"Love Breathing! My Style! Unwavering Love!"
Lubbock was seen taking the White String Spear in his hand.
The spear shaft first compressed backward like a spring.
Immediately after, it shot out at an incredible Speed.
[Boom!]
While piercing open a ring of Sound Burst in the air, it simultaneously transformed into a trace of Pink Meteor carrying many Hearts.
It instantly pierced through the Guardian Shinobi's chest cavity.
But this wasn't over yet.
It was still rapidly extending backward.
Along the way, it pierced through the Trees, Rock Garden, and even the City Wall.
A moment later, another screeching Whistling Sound rang out.
The entire Spear contracted back like Lightning.
Returning to a normal White String Spear in Lubbock's hand.
And the Blood Hole in the Guardian Shinobi's Chest was no longer bleeding.
Because the Edge of the Wound had been completely charred during the rapid friction.
"Mitsuri-chan will definitely become my bride!"
Lubbock said with a firm tone.
On the other side.
Meilard, who was regarded by everyone in CP8 as the Strongest below Mima Amatori, had encountered trouble.
Meilard was surrounded by a dense, swarming Insect Swarm like Black Mist.
These Bugs looked like individual Black Beetles of various kinds, but they all had a pair of translucent Elytra that vibrated at high speed, producing a 'buzzing' sound.
They were Insect-Type Artificial Alchemic Danger Beasts.
Collectively called Crawling Things, they possessed the terrifying Ability to easily crush and devour metal, including Steel.
Their own Insect Armor was also quite Toughness; ordinary Blades, and even Bullets, found it difficult to Wound them.
Moreover, they could move with Agility/Dexterity in their Operation according to the User's Will.
They were a bit like the Gold-Devouring Beetles from the Xianxia World.
The reason they were called Artificial Alchemic Danger Beasts.
Was because, according to Legend, they were Manufacturing a thousand years ago by Alchemists recruited by The Empire from the Alchemy Kingdom.
Although Meilard carried quite a few various Insect-type Danger Beasts.
The most numerous and most commonly used were still these Flying Beetles.
But even such a terrifying Insect Swarm had been unable to achieve Breakthrough against the Defense of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire behind them and Wound him.
At this moment, beside the trembling Daimyo, three Guardian Shinobi stood, maintaining Vigilance of the surroundings.
And one of them, a Bald Monk who claimed to be the Abbot of Fire Temple, Dharma Name Kūkai.
Was facing Meilard with his right palm placed flat in front of his abdomen and his left palm held upright at his Chest.
That expression of imposing authority without anger was exactly the same as the Crimson Vajra Phantom appearing behind him.
No matter how many dense Insect Swarms from Meilard's side pounced forward.
They would always be easily blasted open at their Carapace by Crimson Fist Shadows appearing out of thin air, falling to the ground in large swaths and dying.
Even the Explosions of Explosion Ants, whose Power was comparable to Explosive Tags, would be blocked by the Vajra Phantom, like a layer of crimson Energy Armor.
"Hmph, what a hard Turtle Shell. Since that's the case, don't blame me for going in myself!"
Meilard's Expression was unpleasant.
Her Figure immediately flashed and disappeared from the spot, instantly appearing in front of Abbot Kukai.
As expected.
Numerous Crimson Fist Shadows Bombardment came towards her.
They clearly looked like Phantom Images, but the Air Blasts exploding between the fists possessed substantial, terrifying Strength.
[Boom boom boom boom...]
In terms of Haki, Meilard was the type more skilled in Observation Haki.
She even combined her previous Breath Concealment Technique Experience.
And mastered the Advanced Technique called Observation Kill more easily than others.
This allowed her to sway her figure with Charm and Sexiness, dancing gracefully among the crimson Fist Shadows like a Black Butterfly, causing all attacks to land on the Open Ground, smashing out one large Shell Crater after another.
"Sorry, I don't like monks!"
As soon as Meilard approached a certain Distance, she immediately lifted her right foot, wearing High Heels, applied Armament Haki to it, and kicked heavily towards Abbot Kukai, who was close at hand.
[Dong!]
However, this powerful kick was still received Frontal by the Crimson Vajra that appeared out of thin air.
Although some Cracks indeed appeared on the surface, the Entity as a whole remained unshaken.
This made Meilard's Expression changed greatly.
She immediately used Shave to dodge the crimson Fist Shadows attacking from all directions.
In the Nick of Time, she once again increased the Distance between the two sides.
"Damn it, do I have to enter Insect Queen Form here? But there's no Time..."
Meilard bit her purple lips, feeling a bit anxious.
She noticed that the other CP8 Members had successively dealt with their respective Opponents.
Only her side was still making no progress.
So embarrassing!
She was Oarberg, known as the Death God!
And the so-called Insect Queen Form.
Was her Body form after fusing with the Bug Egg of the Butterfly-type Danger Beast within her Body.
After a period in a Cocoon state and Breaking out of the Cocoon.
At that Time, she would not only maintain her Human Form but also have Butterfly Wings and various beautiful butterfly features appear behind her back.
She would also be able to freely reconstruct her Body and organs.
No matter how serious internal or external Wounds were, they could all achieve Recovery in a short Time.
She could also freely Transform her Limbs into various Weapons with Sharpness.
It was a bit like a weaker version combination of a Zoan-Type Devil Fruit User and Muzan Kibutsuji...
But the problem was that in the Cocoon state.
She needed to maintain it for at least five minutes to achieve Breaking out of the Cocoon.
This was equivalent to a Animal-Type Ability User needing to spend at least five minutes to Transform.
Although the Cocoon would provide decent Protection.
The various Abilities of the Insect Queen Form were also very powerful, but it was still a bit... hard to describe.
"Alright, step back."
"I've finished clearing the other areas."
A cold voice suddenly appeared in the Court.
At the same Time, a mass of purple and white Gas (Ability) quickly gathered between Abbot Kukai and Meilard.
"This..."
Meilard wanted to argue a few words for herself.
But when Mima Amatori, who had appeared, swept her Gaze over.
Her delicate body immediately froze, and she couldn't say another word.
Although Meilard was considered a top-tier Assassination Expert in The Empire of the Imperial Arms World before.
However, after all, she wasn't a Heaven's Chosen like Esdeath.
And the Time she joined the World Government was too short.
Mima Amatori completely unconcerned about Meilard's unpleasant Expression behind her.
She looked towards Abbot Kukai, who was standing ready ahead, with an elegant Smile.
"A bit interesting. Could you introduce this Ability of yours, Master?"
The Daimyo Palace Castle of the Land of Fire.
It should be the largest and most luxurious Daimyo Palace Castle among the Daimyo of the Five Great Nations.
