Chapter 33: Musou Isshin, Bury Him Well

"So what?" The boy picked up his sword and held it tightly. "Whether I can block it or not is different from whether I can take it or not, right?" Looking at the Raiden Shogun who had already walked down from the castle tower, the boy began to tremble. Was it because of the intimidation of the gods? Or the raging of thunder and lightning? Neither, but excitement. That strike was Musou no Hitotachi. But it was also the strike that countless warriors dreamed of. It represents the ultimate in martial arts, but it is also the goal of all warriors. All things doesn't matter, as long as you dare to face the sky, your chivalrous bones will be respected, even after your death. Facing the Musou no Hitotachi strike was both what he had been seeking all his life and his only hope to make a turnaround. Though it's questionable, whether it can even be called hope. Feeling the thunder from the castle tower, Kujou Sara sighed and made way for the shogun. From the moment the boy threw down his weapon, the duel in front of the throne had already come to an end. And the sword that the boy was pursuing was about to come. Holding the katana wrapped in lightning in her hand, Raiden Shogun walked down the long stairs of the castle tower step by step. From the moment she stepped on the ordinary stairs, it seemed to turn into a ladder leading to the end of the world. At the end of the ladder, there was not heaven, but only endless raging thunderstorms. The name of the sword is Musou Isshin, born from the divine power of the Electro Archon Baal. Although it has not been sharpened, the presence or absence of a blade has no effect on the authority of Musou no Hitotachi. The thunderstorm wrapped around Musou Isshin, making the blade of this sword full of the breath of destruction. The flashing lightning even made the space seem to be torn apart revealing the void within. After stepping down the stairs, Raiden Shogun's eyes, which were originally closed, slowly opened. I don't know if it's an illusion, but her eyes, which were originally emotionless, seemed to have some extra luster. At the same time, the Hundred Eyes Wheel of Wishes, which symbolizes the authority of the Thunder God, also appeared behind her. "Can I resist?" The boy felt a tingling sensation all over his body, and his hair stood up because of the lightning. He had goose bumps all over his body. "Whatever you want." General Raiden slowly raised the Musou Isshin in his hand, and actually responded to him in a rare way. I don't know if it's an illusion, but compared to the emotionless "hmm" at the beginning, the boy felt that there was a hint of tenderness in the shogun's voice. After getting permission, the boy raised the inconspicuous sword in his hand. Compared with the Musou Isshin, this sword is too old. Not only are there many trace of bumps on the blade, but the rope around the handle also has traces of fading. The Vision on the boy's waist slowly lit up, and a trace of lightning also climbed on the blade. But compared with the lightning of Raiden Shogun, this lightning was like a fluorescent light infront of bright moon. It won't even attract the attention of others. The surrounding soldiers, including the three magistrates, have already fallen to the ground. This is divine power, and also divine punishment. Just looking at it with the naked eye, there is a danger of being blinded by lightning. The masters of Tenryou Commission and Kanjou Commission wanted to use this to intimidate the Fatui, so as to gain more benefits from them. Unexpectedly, they themselves were the ones who were intimidated in the end. The sky gradually darkened, and under Musou no Hitotachi strike, the skylight did not dare to compete with it. As the lightning sounded, General Raiden's sword fell. In the eyes of the young man, the shogun's figure was infinitely elevated, and the same was true for the sword in her hand. Under this sword, he was incomparably small. Even his soul had the omen of being chopped off. But he did not escape, nor did he whine. He raised his thunder-covered sword and slashed at the sword that seemed to have no end. That's right, his fighting style has always been defensive. But today, for the first time, he chose to take the initiative to attack. "Keng——" Musou Isshin, which was wrapped in lightning, collided with the unknown sword that was also wrapped in lightning. The lightning flashed, and Musou Isshin cut off the sharp blade without any pressure, hitting the boy without any pause. "Boom——" The dazzling lightning ravaged the entire martial arts field, and the hard floor was turned into powder under the effect of the lightning, leaving only the charred land. Bai Luo hugged the white cat whose fur was blown and struggling, and he did not dare to let go. Because he knew that as long as he let go of his hand, the white cat would definitely rush into the lightning without hesitation. Could it be... that he knew I was here, so he let the white cat come? Thinking about it carefully, it is really possible. I will definitely be there for a duel of this level. And the other party just happens to know that he has a method of invisibility that is enough to hide from everything. Alas, if I can help, I will help. Anyway, this level of movement will not interrupt his invisibility. As for the disappearance of a cat here, no one will care. Even the most ferocious beasts dare not face this kind of powerful lightning. The lightning gradually dissipated, leaving only the charred land and the smiling body of the boy. That's right, He didn't know what method Raiden Shogun used to save his body, so that he would not turn into nutrients for the land in the lightning. "Bury him well." Musou Isshin hung by her side, and General Raiden slowly raised her other free hand. A Electro-attributed Vision slowly floated up from the boy's body and flew towards her hand. "Stop!" A sword carrying a violent wind unexpectedly arrived, causing a sonic boom and knocking the Vision away in midair. Kaedehara Kazuha stood at the edge of the martial arts arena, still in a throwing posture. Behind him were several Tenryou Commission soldiers who had already fallen to the ground and whose lives were unknown. The calm and peaceful wind that usually surrounded him became restless because of his emotions. He took the long sword brought back by the wind and looked sadly at his friend who had already lost his life in the arena. "General, be careful!" Kamisato Ayato, who was waiting on the side, saw Kaedehara Kazuha rushing towards the martial arts arena, and jumped out and greeted him as soon as possible. Kamisato Ayato simply blocked his attack with martial arts, without using elemental power. Because his martial arts value has always been a mystery in Inazuma. If it weren't for Kaedehara Kazuha's impulsive behavior, he wouldn't even want to come out and expose his strength. But he had to come out. To outsiders, he just wanted to show off in front of the shogun who seldom left the castle tower. In fact, he wanted to make Raiden Shogun cautious and not rashly use the sword. Otherwise... Kazuha would definitely not survive. Just as he expected, as the head of the Kamisato family, he stood in front of General Raiden, and the shogun immediately lowered the Musou Isshin in her hand. No matter how ruthless Raiden Shogun was, she would not rashly hurt the head of the Tri-commision. Because this represented the foundation of Inazuma. If anything happened to him, Inazuma would definitely be deeply shocked. Just as Kamisato Ayato was thinking about how to break the deadlock, something strange happened. Under a sakura tree in the corner of the martial arts field, another red figure rushed out. He pulled up the boy's broken weapon and rushed directly to General Raiden... the Vision in front of him. ________________________________________ [A/N: What do you guys think?
