KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)

Red Kraken II

The sword in Chizua's hand was actually very large for a normal human size. But in the hands of the female pirate, the big sword looks as light as a broomstick.

True, the woman was indeed very strong apart from her slim body that looked seductive. His great power was striking as the huge sword swept towards Ryutaro.

No matter whether it was a puncture or a slash, just the wind from his movements alone was able to make an ordinary human thrown far away. And that is what experienced by some residents who were late to get away from the arena of the second fight.

From time to time, Chizua unleashes an attack to urge Ryutaro. On the other hand, Ryutaro showed a slightly stiff movement. Looks like the former warlord took a little time to get used to moving his body again.

On one occasion, a successive strike from Chizua's double-slash sword movement nearly slashed Ryutaro's neck. Ryutaro was a little late in anticipating the consecutive slashes, but coincidentally at that time Ryutaro's legs actually slipped slippery ground under it so that his life was saved even by accident.

The distance of that sword eye with his neck was only a hair at that moment. In fact, a red mark like a scratch was left on Ryutaro's neck. It was the wind from the air that was pushed by Chizua's sword movement.

Unable to breathe a sigh of relief after escaping death, Ryutaro is forced to fend off dozens of subsequent consecutive slashes.

Ryutaro is forced to fend off Chizua's sword attacks without using any weapons. He could only use the metal sleeve cover part of his own Armor as a shield. As a result, the hundreds of years old armor was torn into pieces on his arm.

“Sial!”

Ryutaro.

This was his first day of being able to feel life becoming a normal human again, but he already had to face a very strong swordsman like this.

Finding his condition less favorable if he continued fighting without using any weapons, Ryutaro immediately jumped back to make distance and took a pause.

But, Chizua is a type of female swordsman who works efficiently. Of course he would not give his opponent the chance to use battle tricks nor let his enemy freely take out his weapon.

Ryutaro soon realized, this opponent would not even be able to be faced by the highest level of shortness in this world, namely the level of Swordsman title. And so far, seeing from his condition that continues to be urged to prove the truth of his assumptions. At least, Ryutaro in his second life must be stronger than an ordinary magic swordsman.

A sword energy attack shot towards Ryutaro's feet as the woman leaped as she spun around with her sword slashing towards the former commander-in-chief, forcing Ryutaro to jump into the air and cross-leave to avoid him.

‘Zink!’

Just as he was in mid-air, having his legs and feet not yet able to retrace the ground, another ten slashes of Chizua sword energy had been sent out by Chizua and rained down on him in succession. Without pause.

One of the ten Chizua slashes Ryutaro failed to avoid.

‘Crash!’

A gaping wound was created in Ryutaro's upper arm. Blood immediately flowed from the open wound.

Grimacing in pain and surprise, Ryutaro scrunched his forehead in astonishment while looking at the long scratch at the base of his arm. His eyes widened knowing his Fire Dragon Shield technique did not work at all, even after his rough body had united with his spirit.

As Ryutaro turned towards his wound for a moment that, a shiny object shot towards him. A sword!

Closing his eyes with resignation because it could not be evasive, at a glance the thought that he would indeed end up appearing just like that in his mind.

‘Trank!’

The sword that was only a few inches away touched Ryutaro's neck skin just shattered into pieces.

Although it was difficult to see ordinary eyes, but clearly there was the sound of an object hitting the sliding sword. Crashed him and smashed him to pieces. In fact, the handle he still held came apart.

At first, Chizua realizes Ryutaro is losing concentration due to his injuries. Then the woman took advantage of the open moment by launching other more violent attacks in a row without pause.

The attack was quick and accurate, and should have been able to put an end to Ryutaro's current resistance had this not happened. His prick that was actually charged with daht energy in high concentration had been blocked off just like that by the other party.

Looking towards the source of the attack on his sword, Chizua only found a young man walking leisurely as he exited Mamoto's house. It's Gentayu.

Without caring for the villagers who he thought were annoying, Gentayu immediately jumped up and ran in the air between the heads of the villagers. It seems impolite to make the head and shoulders of others as a foothold, even if the feet do not really tread on their heads and shoulders, yet that is exactly what Gentayu did before landing right between Chizua and Ryutaro.

Realizing the appearance of other warriors into the battle arena, two other pirates immediately rushed towards Gentayu.

The two men were Ashara and Agira. Ashara's. Ashara was armed with a chain with the tip hanging a sword shaped like a celurit, while Agira used a silver spear as his weapon and skill.

The two, seeming much stronger than Chizua, yet clearly still no match for Gentayu. In three moves, the two pirates had been sent flying through Gentayu's kicks. Not only that, on the second kick marks, each printed the stamp of Gentayu footwear and still reflecting white smoke.

Ashara received a kick in her chest. As a result, his clothes burned and formed a shoe stamp on his body with a pungent smell of grilled meat. While Agira was a little luckier because he managed to block the kick with both hands crossed closing the gap. As a result, both of his hands also suffered burns.

“Dia.. she. seems to be pemu... da inih.. stronger than the commander!” Agira immediately picked up a danger signal from his opponent this time around. Speaking while enduring pain, Agira expressed his opinion when both of them were trying to get up after being thrown tens of meters due to Gentayu kick.

They have ventured out into the ocean and robbed dozens of ships throughout the year. Countless hundreds of warriors had they annihilated in his action. But in the presence of this young man, even in three moves they were knocked down with serious injuries.

Realizing the situation was not possible, Doraku who seemed to be appointed as the leader of the mission ordered his three members to retreat. Unfortunately, it's too late.

Ashara and Agira's bodies suddenly exploded as the two managed to get up. Surprised everyone.

“Ah..What the fuck?!” Shuddering in horror, Doraku turned his back in disbelief to see his partner who was initially seen still able to rise despite being injured has now been turned into bone fragments, flesh and blood in front of the courtyard of Mamoto's house.

Not far from them, even Chizua was still in his place due to shock.
