The Thousand Mask Warrior

Trident

Usually, the business of patience, Sebastian de Jaager is more prominent than the cool. But this time Sebastian de Jaager's anger was already at the top of his head. How many times did that man get killed? Their two bodyguards, the hired killer ronin, were killed at his hands, while the soldiers he had ranked to attack Jayaseta from behind the grass and trees did not come out.

Devisser de Jaager looked around, also surprised by the absence of soldiers. Actually he did not want to bear the shame if he ordered the soldiers to immediately ambush Jayaseta. He also believes so is the old brother. But he was too upset over the idiosyncrasies that let them fight so far, wasting time and sacrificing their expensive Japanese bodyguards.

Devisser de Jaager shouted in Dutch, Malay and Javanese, ordering the soldiers to come out.

Not how long it sounded rustling grass and leaves. The figures appeared slowly.

Devisser de Jaager promised to punish these soldiers later for ignoring his orders. But what happened, he cursed when he realized that the out of the grove of only four men he did not know. One clasped a gandewa or bow, the rest carried a dagger covered in blood.

Sebastian de Jaager felt his head burning hot, probably already causing smoke. If this is what has to happen, it's okay. This time it'll blow Jayaseta up to his saber late in the information. His pair of eyes flashed, not just because of the fighting spirit, but the burning murderous lust.

Devisser watched the four men who were standing pecked with a sharp look towards him. Forced he must allow the old brother to fight one-on-one with Jayaseta. He had to prepare himself for the attacks of the four foreigners.

Karsan seemed to understand this. He sled his bow, then by making a sign with his hand like allowing Devisser to continue his fight. Karsan did not want to be considered to want to join the fight, ganged the two brothers de Jaager with three pairs of dagger warriors his colleagues.

Devisser de Jaager was a bit doubtful what might this troupe not be meddling in their fight? After all, he and his brother have proven to be cheating and cunningly prepare troops secretly, and unfortunately, failed.

Sevastian de Jaager himself was consumed by anger. He did not care, his pride had already fallen. The fight to the death is a way to pay it all off.

He clasped tightly and began to lift his saber. It was then that he began to feel an oddity, because his right wrist felt sore. The more he raised his sword, the more it hurt his wrist.

He turned to his right arm and there he saw a small flat object stuck in the back of his right arm. A knife. That's Jayaseta's secret weapon Grandpa Salman gave him, the secret throwing knife.

What exactly is the superiority of a trident-eyed spear? How is it different from other sharp-edged spears? Wasn't the goal to stab and tear the enemy's body?

Here comes his greatness.

Narendra had released two of his javelins, but his trident spear had previously been mounted to a longer handle. Usually the trident spear eye is paired to a short handle that is easy to carry.

Deftly, Narendra and Katilapan had already knocked half the horsemen who followed Pratiwi to the top of the bamboo forest hill.

Narendra directly thrust his spear into the horsemen who rolled looking for safety. They survived Narendra's spear jabs, but some were unable to escape the tantrums of a pair of Rattan Bed.

The one hiding behind the trees immediately tried to take advantage of this incident. One of them took aim at Narendra who was circling hunting down the fallen troops from the horses as quickly as possible. But Katilapan threw one of his rotating batons.

BLEED IT!

The shooter's head was targeted. His rifle fell, while he himself collapsed, half unconscious.

His colleague in charge of filling live bullets picked up the dropped rifle, but somehow at first, Narendra's trident blade had already clamped the gun shaft and locked it. Just as he was about to be fired, Narendra turned his spear. The rifle slipped out of the user's hand and was thrown away.

The shooter soldier felt as if he was naked because suddenly his hand did not hold any weapons. However, as a main shooter auxiliary soldier, he also still has to hold one other rifle and also has the ability to shoot, although often not as smart as the main shooter. Unfortunately, before he managed to direct the rifle he took from his shoulder, Narendra's trident spear struck and tore his stomach.

Strange enough indeed, that the soldiers of the shooter who can release attacks from a distance instead hide behind trees and keep their distance from Narendra and Katilapan who confronted them. In fact, both of them also do not carry throwing weapons or arrows.

But if you pay attention, it is natural that the soldiers with the rifle are all careful. In a moment, there were several casualties.

Narendra's trident spear has three sharp eyes at the ends. The length of the spear handle that Narendra had fitted onto this blade of his trident was as tall as an adult, even taller than his body.

The trident spearhead was used by the main forces of the Srivijaya kingdom in the 8th to 12th centuries AD.

Although Srivijaya kingdom is known as the center of Buddhism, the influence of Shiva religion is also strong, especially in the early establishment. Therefore, the trident itself is strongly influenced by the Shiva religion of the Hindustani state, representing the weapon used by the god, Shiva.

In the past, the trident spear weapon used by Srivijaya soldiers had two sharp sides, at the top and bottom of the spear. At the bottom of the spear there are also other triangular spear eyes that can both be used to attack opponents.

Then, after Srivijaya collapsed due to competition with the kingdoms of Kambuja, Champa and Java, especially Singasari, the shape and use of the trident spear was changed and developed. Majapahit, who claimed to be the successor to the greatness of Singasari, also began to develop the moves to use this weapon.

Furthermore, during the Islamic kingdoms in Java, the trident blade is often paired with a short handle, such as a variety of other spear points or kitchen, such as dwisula, worms, cardiac sigar, new, puthut luk, and so on, ron, mudup, biri or kudi luk, so it is easy to carry around and still has the power of destruction like a spear in general.

Narendra's trident spear attack with a long handle, could not only withstand the attacks of other weapons, such as swords, but also lock them, similar to the use of branch weapons. The difference is, the sharp blade of the trident is also able to destroy the opponent's body with three types of blades at once. The resulting wound tripled in size, no different from being stabbed by three attackers.

Narendra hunts down the other shooters who are starting to get confused. The trident spear in his hand was thrust out nimbly, tucking the trees like a snake. Peck the trunk and bark when it does not hit the target, and smash it into pieces. The heads, chests and stomachs of the soldiers were turned into his target.
