"Then there's no way--"

Shannan said in a deep voice, as if there was a sigh in his voice.

Even though Shannan was pointing at him with a tachi, Hijikata showed no sign of drawing the sword, but just pressed his right hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, showing a vigilant expression, and looked at Shannan coldly.

Shannan's hair turned white in an instant.

Liu Quan knew that he should draw out his sword at this time.It seems that Shannan has chosen a road of no return, a road that is contrary to the Shinsengumi - and what she can do is to draw her sword to block the soil, and face the Wu Fu who used to be in Osaka in front of her. The man in the house who desperately wanted to save his life ended his crazy and painful life that had been irreversible since that day——

However, why did she hold the hilt of the sword tightly with her hand, but couldn't move? !

Why didn't she have the courage to rush up and stop Shannan in front of him, preventing him from doing the worst thing? !

These thoughts are all in the blink of an eye.While she was hesitating, Shannan had already swung his knife high——

With a sound of swish, the heavy sword slashed down with great force.

"what--!!!"

...The one who screamed was a Rakshasa soldier created by Tsunami Yukimura.

Raksha's body fell heavily to the ground with a plop.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden scene.

Only Shannan, who had turned into a Rakshasa, had a sharp smile on his face.

"If you tell us Rakshasa, who can only fight, there is nowhere to fight—"

His voice is still gentle and gentle, but full of seriousness and solemnity.

"That's all for now—it's kind of a mercy."

Finally, there was a little pain in his voice, maybe a little despair and sadness; Liu Quan couldn't distinguish it, but her mood suddenly became tense, and then agitated.

...Mr. Shannan! !

... She was right... The familiar, gentle, brave, wise and powerful Mr. Shannan is indeed still alive, and still exists in his Rakshasa body!

Liu Quan pulled out his sword in an instant.

She was still unable to move just now, her wrist seemed to be weak and there seemed to be a force coming from her hand, as if the extinguished confidence had been rekindled, she set up her long sword and made a posture before she drew the sword.

The Rakshasa in the hall also recalled it one after another.Although they lost their reason, they were unwilling to be killed, howled and quickly drew their knives.

Tufang shouted loudly: "Pingzhu!"

Ever since his handsome speech, Hirasuke, who has been a bystander and useless, responded with his usual energetic voice: "I know!"

He set up the knife energetically, and his appearance changed into that of a Rakshasa in an instant.

"Mr. Shannan, you are too handsome! Why don't you tell me anything!" He shouted happily.

The Rakshasa Shannan looked at his companion, and finally a real faint smile appeared on his face.

"Well, although this is a cliché... but, 'If you want to deceive the enemy, you must first deceive your comrades'..."

There was a hint of joy in his voice, and the two of them swung their sabers at Raksha without hesitation.

The number of Rakshasa is decreasing, one after another fell to the ground.

"And if it is a person who stands in the position of assisting the 'chief', it is more suitable to play this hated role, isn't it?" Shannan explained with a terrifying smile on his face, but his tone was extremely gentle.

After hearing Shannan's words, Tufang couldn't help but smiled wryly.

"Ah~ah, what a handsome speech. It completely overshadowed my limelight, Mr. Shannan."

Okita's very casual, joking tone suddenly rose.He also set up his Taidao, and his hair turned white in an instant.

"Hey, Hirasuke! Remember? That night at Ikeda House, although we were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, how fun it was to cut!" It swept across Shannan, Tufang and Liuquan in an instant.

"Hey, I said... those who didn't have time to participate that day, it's not too late to show up tonight, okay?" He continued with a smile, and suddenly his body moved, and the Taidao slammed forward.

Shannan's movements seemed to pause slightly, but a deeper smile appeared on his face immediately, and he continued to kill.

"...Hey, that's really the case." He even had enough room to respond gently.

Liu Quan couldn't help but look back at Tu Fang, only to see that he had also raised a knife.

"Speaking of which, you also fought with someone that night." His tone was very flat.

For some reason, Liu Quan suddenly felt a warm current rushing through his heart.

"That's right. That night, I didn't go to the Ikeda house at first, but followed the deputy chief to take on the aftermath task... I really didn't expect to have a fight, so I can be active." She responded with a smile road.

Earthwork smiled and frowned.

"Whether it's the 'chief' or the 'deputy chief', it's always been my task to deal with the aftermath."

"But why every time after the aftermath, it can only be like this in the end... It still needs to be judged by the sword."

Before he finished speaking, he jumped up sharply and swung down the sword from mid-air.

Every time the blade falls, blood splatters in the halls of Sendai Castle.

Killing groups of Rakshasa is just like the ghosts and gods written in the book.

Hijikata, Shannan, Okita Heisuke, although some are still human beings, some are already Rakshasa, but they all mercilessly sent the rest of the Rakshasa into the sea of ​​blood.

The hall was a bloody scene.

But the corners of Liu Quan's lips suddenly and slowly curved upwards.

She didn't say a word, but suddenly rushed forward nimbly, piercing a Rakshasa's heart with a sword.

The tip of the sword pierced the flesh almost immediately, and plunged into Luo Sha's heart, making a small "chi" sound.

As soon as Liu Quan drew his sword, that Raksha fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and stopped moving.

She didn't have time to rejoice that she had succeeded in one blow, and she slashed with a backhand sword, slashing the shoulder of a Rakshasa who was about to attack her from behind.

...the battle continues.

It is not an easy task to deal with Rakshasa whose number is dozens of times larger than theirs.So Liu Quan joined the battle group, and no one stopped her.

This is a turbulent and chaotic era, and there is not much unnecessary mercy for women.Since she has the same fighting power and will as a man, let her also fight together - hasn't it been like this for the past six years.

During the fierce battle, Tsunamichi Yukimura, who stayed out of the way and did not participate in the fight, suddenly questioned him weakly and feebly.

"Are those words all nonsense?...In the kingdom of ghosts, further research on Rakshasa. Shannan-kun...you must have said that to me."

Shannan had just beheaded a Raksha, upon hearing this he jumped back a step, still holding the saber, and turned his gaze to Xuecun Gangdao.

"You see the future..."

He smiled sadly.

"I once searched for Rakshasa's way of survival. After knowing that I would not live long in the future, I was very anxious."

"In order to advance Rakshasa's research, sometimes I have to get my hands dirty..."

With a self-deprecating tone, his eyes drifted away.

"All the suspicious actions I have done so far are all to save my companions who have become Rakshasa... and to save myself."

"However, Rakshasa has no future. Isn't Tsunadō-kun also very clear?"

Just like the night before heading to Sendai, the cruel truth was revealed from his mouth again.

"No matter how much you increase your resistance to sunlight, once you put a burden on your body, your lifespan will be shortened. And the craving for blood won't disappear..."

... Rakshasa is beyond salvation.This is what he wants to say.

Yukimura Tsunamichi stood there dumbfounded, seemingly unable to utter a word.

The smile on Shannan's face slowly disappeared.

"We are just epiphyllums in this era. Rakshasa is a species that shouldn't appear in the world...let this all end."

His voice was so low that it was roaring in his chest, like the heart that should not have continued to beat, but was still throbbing in his chest——

Suddenly, a knife flashed.

...is a Rakshasa, planning to attack Shannan from behind!

It was almost too late to draw the saber again, Shannan gritted his teeth, and tried his best to jump to the side with the quick steps that belonged to Rakshasa.

But there was one person who was faster than him to dodge.

A long sword with a straight blade suddenly stretched out from the side, and with a bang, it barely caught the Rakshasa's knife!

But this kind of hasty shot is of course not foolproof. The moment the blades intersect, because the angle of the collision is really difficult to maintain a stable balance, the steel blades make a clear and crisp sound. The blade drew a stream of sparks and slid away - and in the next second, Liu Quan, who used a shorter blade, suffered a disadvantage, and the long tip of the opponent's tachi continued to slide along the sliding direction due to inertia. Moving forward, it split her left sleeve in an instant, drawing a long wound on her left arm!

Liu Quan subconsciously cried out: "Ah...!!"

She jerked back a few steps.If that Raksha took the opportunity to slash forward, she would not be able to take the next stab.

But a flash of white light flashed, and Shannan's blade slashed down sharply, instantly cutting off the Raksha's head.
