I, Den-O, Contract Urban Legend

"I think so. Even though my personality is a bit strange, and I even call myself "Mother" from time to time, the agent is still the agent after all. "

However, even Inoue Ueya himself was very surprised by Natsukawa Hanako's fighting performance. Thinking about it carefully, he had never seen Hanako fighting seriously before. For example, what happened at Tenjin Elementary School was basically relying on Hanako's power violently crushed the past. If it weren't for the special nature of the different space, she wouldn't have been able to accomplish anything...

[As expected, Hanako, you are really amazing. 】

"Ueya Inoue" raised the corner of his mouth slightly and responded in a low voice: "Humph, do you still need to say that? This is a matter of course, right? My strength is definitely not weaker than that idiot senior who can release light cannons with his bare hands. Just a little more It’s okay to compliment me.”

Hearing Inoue Ueya's praise, Natsukawa Hanako felt an inexplicable joy in her heart. Under the mask, "Inoue Ueya" couldn't help but show a proud expression.

[It seems that Mr. Inoue should work harder on training, and he can’t keep holding everyone back. 】

"Well, you don't have to force yourself. Anyway, as for the fighting part, you can just leave it to me, Inoue. And I think if you continue to increase the amount of exercise, sooner or later you will turn into a strange muscular man style, which will also trouble us. ah……"

【ha? What are you talking about? 】

"All in all, you just have to do what you can!"

When the armored man in front of him suddenly started talking to himself, Kidomaru, who was standing not far away, frowned. No wonder Lord Hagoromo Kitsune mentioned the existence of "Den-O" when he attacked the temple. This guy is really too dangerous, even more dangerous than his old enemy Slippery Ghost.

We can't let this guy continue to imitate sword skills, otherwise his strength will grow...

Kidomaru decided that he would be serious and defeat all the enemies in front of him in one fell swoop, not even leaving the opponent a chance to imitate!

Chapter 248: My special move

After "Sakura", Kidomaru also created two sword moves in the past thousand years. He called these two moves Void and Infinite respectively.

"Void" is a sword skill that follows the idea of ​​Kidomaru's past moves and increases the speed of sword swing to the limit. If "Sakura" has ten times the speed of the first sword skill "Ume no wood", then "Void" has a speed of a hundred times. The ultimate speed can even allow Kidomaru to create a vacuum field and destroy everything through high-speed slashes, so this move was named Void by him.

Next, Kidomaru, who had trained his speed to the limit, found that the way he held the sword with both hands was still limited by his movements, and his speed could no longer be improved, so he shifted his thoughts to weapons and developed the final sword skill " "Infinite", use "fear" to create a huge controllable blade, and use "fear" to accelerate it to the limit, and swing out tens of thousands of slashes in an instant!

However, Kidomaru did not intend to use these two sword skills.

Natsukawa Hanako's strength is unpredictable. Even Kidomaru, who has been promoted to a higher level, feels some vague pressure from the previous battle. With the power of those two sword skills alone, he is really not 100% sure to defeat the opponent in an instant. A complete kill.

"Although the method is a bit tricky, I have indeed broken through to the realm of great monsters now, so..."

Whether it's the slick ghost or the armored man in front of him, they are all opponents worth fighting. As a respect for the warriors, Kidomaru wants to use all his strength to defeat them!

The "Ra Castle Gate" that everyone is in is a scene manifested in Kidomaru's mind, which also means that he is the master of this space. With the power to control the space, he gradually realizes that he has more powerful abilities that can be used. The cost of the move is gone.

"First, he trained his speed to the limit, and then he successfully broke through the limitations imposed by the weapon. Then what else can I do in the future?"

As Kidomaru spoke, he was lost in thought, but he unconsciously exuded an extremely terrifying "fear". His aura far exceeded the level of previous battles. There were faint ripples in the pure white space, and it seemed that something unknown was happening. changes...

Seeing this, "Ueya Inoue" seemed particularly excited, and immediately said: "Oh, I didn't expect this old guy to still retain this level of power!"

Natsukawa Hanako is actually not good at anything like swordsmanship. The swordsmanship she used before was basically imitated based on the movements she observed. However, she has rich combat experience and can understand it to some extent. To Kidomaru's thoughts at this time.

"It seems that he must have guessed my ability. Now he is probably preparing to release his ultimate move to end this battle instantly. Don't you want to leave me the slightest chance to reverse the situation of the battle..."

This is Natsukawa Hanako's weakness. In order to realize the simulated ability, she needs to spend a long time observing and figuring out the opponent's moves. If you want to use this talent flexibly, the user needs to have strong computing power, understanding ability and The amount of knowledge, unfortunately, these are all things that Natsukawa Hanako is not good at dealing with.

Compared to this brain-burning method, Natsukawa Hanako prefers to use her powerful strength to crush her opponent without thinking. If she doesn't encounter a move or "fear" that she likes, she basically won't use this power casually. First, she hates the fact that the operation of the ability is too complicated. Secondly, she needs to distract herself to observe the opponent's movements during the battle. For her, this cheating-level power is only an ability that she will use in extremely rare circumstances.

Rather than copying other people's sword skills, she hopes to create her own moves.

"Hehe, I just found a lot of inspiration in this battle. It's not bad to take this opportunity to try it out now?"

The long sword made of "fear" in the hand of "Inoue Ueya" turned into a stream of energy and merged into the assembled long sword. The blade of the long sword became extremely red as if it was burned by high temperature. Then he took out the black pass and swept it on his belt.

【Full Charge】

Seeing the assembled long sword being entangled by the red lightning, "Inoue Ueya" nodded with satisfaction, threw the pass in his hand to the ground, and looked up at Kidomaru standing not far away.

"Hey, that old guy whose name I don't know, come and have a fair duel with me!"

At this time, Kidomaru seemed to have realized something, and ripples appeared everywhere in the pure white space, and countless swords and knives protruded from the void.

In an instant, the entire pure white space was filled with suspended blades, and everyone had nowhere to escape.

The situation around him became dangerous, and Nura Rikuo, who had just recovered a little from his injuries, had to grit his teeth and engage in ghost entanglement with Kurodabo again. The battle between "Inoue Ueya" and Kidomaru was no longer a level that they could intervene at that level, but this was still a space that could not be escaped. All he could do now was to do his best to protect his companions around him from harm.

"As you wish, for the long-cherished wish of our Kyoto monsters, you will die here!"

As soon as the words fell, endless silver light attacked everyone from everywhere like a storm, and the speed was much faster than the previous two sword skills of Kidomaru. Even if "Inoue Ueya" tried his best, he could not completely capture the dynamics of the swords with his naked eyes.

"Tsk tsk, after Bankai, it turned out to be Unlimited Sword System, you old man really know how to play..."

-It doesn't matter if you can't see those swords clearly. The target of the swords is undoubtedly everyone, so it is enough to block all the swords for this point!

"Inoue Ueya" flashed and appeared beside the monsters of the Nura group, holding the long sword in his left hand. The "fear" of the urban legend broke out completely without reservation at this moment, and a scarlet girl's phantom immediately enveloped the Nura group.

At the same time, the swords that entered the shadow realm were fixed in midair as if time had stopped. The red lightning wrapped around the assembled long swords flowed between the fixed swords under the control of "Inoue Ueya", with the long sword as the main body, forming a visible lightning chain with Kidomaru's swords...

After the swords were linked by the red lightning, Kidomaru frowned. He could feel that the control of those weapons was taken away by "Inoue Ueya".

"Hmph, it's just a trifling trick. My ultimate secret is more than that!"

As he said that, an extremely huge long sword emerged from the void. Although it was extremely large in size, if you look closely, the giant sword is actually a metal torrent formed by a large number of swords.

Seeing the giant sword falling from above, "Inoue Ueya" no longer hesitated, pointed the assembled long sword at the giant sword in the sky, and shouted loudly, "My ultimate move Part 2!"

Chapter 249 Forgive me for being blunt

The swords and knives linked by red lightning turned into powder one after another, and the "fear" contained in the swords and knives was completely absorbed by the assembled long sword as the source of the link. A strong "fear" washed over the long sword in "Inoue Ueya's" hand, and the assembled long sword wrapped by red lightning was gradually transformed into a three-meter-long sword. Even though the appearance looked full of oppression, it was particularly small compared to the "giant sword" falling from the sky at this time.

But there is no absolute relationship between size and strength. A scarlet sword energy gushed out from the sword body of the sword. "Inoue Ueya" swung the sword lightly, and the sword energy separated from the sword as the blade and shot towards the "giant sword" in the sky.

Seeing the blade in the air, Kidomaru sneered. In his eyes, such a blade was nothing. Even if this move could destroy the "giant sword" in the sky, it didn't matter. This was a space dominated by him. With the recovery speed of the big monster, it would be no problem for him to make a few more giant swords.

Just as he thought, the blade swung by "Inoue Ueya" was like a sporadic spark. When it touched the tip of the "giant sword", it was instantly swallowed by the metal torrent. It seemed to have no effect at all.

"It's really disappointing. Is this what you call the "ultimate move"? ”

However, Kidomaru was soon stunned by the next scene. As the saying goes, a single spark can start a prairie fire. The tip of the "giant sword" actually turned scarlet at this moment. The scarlet blade that had just been swallowed was constantly flowing in this "giant sword" composed of countless swords. The scarlet color quickly spread out from the "giant sword", and the swords in it gradually turned into powder, and the "Inoue Ueya" sword blade became more and more powerful.

Seeing Kidomaru's confused look, "Ueya Inoue" nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "I didn't expect that, by absorbing the enemy's "fear" to strengthen its own attack, this is my new special move. clatter! "

In a few breaths, the sword blade swallowed up the large metal torrent in the sky that looked like a giant sword, and turned into a real giant blade.

"Ueya Inoue" held the hilt of the sword in his hand and controlled the giant blade to hit Kidomaru hard. Even if he tried to create more swords to delay time, it had no effect. It was generated with "fear" The swords all became nutrients for the giant blade, and the oncoming attacks increased instead of falling.

"What an outrageous ability. Is this the end of it for me..."

As the shadow in the sky fell, Kidomaru, who had exhausted all his strength, stopped making any struggle and just stood there, completely swallowed by the scarlet blade.

Boom!

With a loud noise, the pure white space turned into white mist and dissipated. Everyone returned to the cellar of Qingyong Temple. The weak moonlight fell from above. Everyone subconsciously looked up and found that the sword blade that cut through the space was behind them when they returned. When entering the real world, it actually penetrated the cellar and the ceiling of the temple.

"Tsk, tsk, those onmyojis shouldn't ask me to pay for it, right?"

"Ueya Inoue" suddenly felt a little headache. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Kidomaru. Now there was only a pool of blood left on the ground, but the old man himself had disappeared without a trace.

[Hanako, is that guy dead? 】

"Well, who knows, but the old guy took my full blow, and even if he didn't die, I'm afraid he will be seriously injured now."

After using his "fear" to sense the situation nearby, and knowing that there were no enemies nearby, "Ueya Inoue" took off his transformation belt. As the transformation was lifted, Hanako Natsukawa also appeared next to Ueya Inoue. around.

"Compared to this, let's go out quickly and take a look at the situation outside. I can no longer feel the breath of Kyoto monsters. I'm afraid they have left Seinagaji Temple."

Inoue Ueya nodded when he heard this. Compared with Kidomaru whose life or death was uncertain, it would be better for him to focus on Hagoromo Kitsune who was still in action.

"Well, let's go up and take a look now. I'm also a little worried about whether something will happen to Qinzi and the group of monsters from the Shikoku Group."

As he said that, Inoue Ueya seemed to have thought of something, and turned to look at Nura Rikuo and others. After experiencing Kidomaru's battle, most of the monsters were already covered in wounds.

There is still a big gap between the strength of the big monster and the Nura-gumi and others. Now they are just facing a cadre-level Kidomaru. Even Hanako has to start taking action. She uses "Ghost" Nura Rikuo was even more powerless to resist. When he faced Hagoromo Kitsune later, he wouldn't suffer heavy casualties, right?

"Well, I guess you all heard what Hanako said. The Hagoromo Fox and the others have probably set off for other temples. They may encounter more dangerous battles than just now. The worst case scenario is of course death... …”

Inoue Ueya hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath and continued: "With all due respect, your strength alone cannot cope with the subsequent battle. I want to confirm with you again now that there is a risk of death. Do you still want to keep fighting?"

"Tsk, you guys are trying to say that we are holding you back, right?"

"Don't think that because you are powerful, you can look down on demons. I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

The monsters were dissatisfied with Inoue Ueya's statement, but they could not make any refutation on the matter of strength. The battle in the pure white space had already explained everything.

Although Ue Inoue also understood that the tone of his words was a bit rude, he still felt that there were some things he had to say. The strength of the Kyoto monsters now far exceeded the description in the original work. Even if he and the girls at home could defeat them, The Hagoromo Fox, whose strength is unknown, is also an unknown number. He does not want any unnecessary sacrifices around him, even if the group of monsters in front of him are not all monsters he knows.

Nura Rikuo vaguely understood Inoue Ueya's intention, and couldn't help but sigh. He first put the Yamiki Maru in his hand into the scabbard, and then turned to look at everyone.

In order to ask Hagoromo the truth about the past and prevent Kyoto monsters from harming humans, even though he now knows that his strength is not enough to compete with the enemy, Nura Rikuo still does not intend to give up interfering in Kyoto's affairs, but he has no reason to let the Nura group The monsters followed him and risked their lives to find the Hagoromo Fox. Inoue Ueya's words should have come from his mouth as the third generation of the Nura-gumi.

"My Lord Actor is right. The enemy's strength is far beyond my imagination. If you think your strength is not suitable to continue to participate in this incident, I hope you will stop here."

Chapter 250 The situation is urgent

Just when Ueya Inoue and others came out of the pure white space, Zero-Liner was driving in the Desert of Time.

Megumi Kato was lying lazily on the sofa in the carriage, yawning and scrolling through her mobile phone to pass the time. With the disappearance of the strange demon god, she had not encountered anything that required fighting recently.

"Xiao Hui, dinner is ready!"

The cracked girl walked in from another carriage, carrying a plate of exquisite food and slowly placing it on the table.

"Hey, I didn't expect that just by looking at my phone, it was so late when I came to my senses..."

Megumi Kato put down his cell phone, stretched a little, sat up from the sofa, and then followed the cracked girl into the kitchen of the carriage.

"Wait, let me come over and help serve the food."

After a while, the meal cooked by the cracked woman was brought to the rest car, and the two of them sat together and started eating dinner.

"Today's dinner was very rich. Did something good happen?"

Although Kato Megumi felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden ordinary life, she did not hate this feeling.

Well, except for the occasional annoying guy with glasses in school, she hasn't encountered any trouble recently.

"Haha, actually when I went to Inoue-sama's place before, I privately asked Ms. Sadako some questions about cooking, and ended up getting a cooking book from her. Originally, I just wanted to follow the methods in the book. It was just an experiment, and as a result, I was completely immersed in it, and I made several more different dishes without even realizing it..."

Kato Megumi nodded. When she heard the crack girl talking about Sadako, her mind thought of Ueya Inoue. It seemed that she hadn't seen him since the last incident with the high-speed mother-in-law.

"Well, I wonder what he is doing now?"

Listening to Kato Megumi's murmur, the slit girl couldn't help but smile.

"Unknowingly, Xiaohui has grown up to this age. Time flies so fast..."

Faced with the cracked girl's teasing, Kato Megumi reacted and blushed, coughed dryly, and clarified: "Don't get me wrong, I just regard him as a friend."

"Ah, are you shy?"

In an instant, the time train that was traveling at high speed began to slow down inexplicably until it stopped. The two people in the carriage immediately showed confused expressions.

"Strange, why did the train stop?"

According to past experience, the time train will only stop when it encounters a passenger with a ticket, but the only people with Zero-Liner tickets are Rikuchi and Megumi Kato...

"Ah! Xiaohui, look outside!"

Kato Megumi put down the rice bowl in his hand and looked out the window of the carriage, and unexpectedly saw a silver-haired girl standing on the small platform outside.

At this time, the silver-haired girl seemed to have seen the two people in the carriage, as if she had met some acquaintances. There was a hint of surprise on her face, and she waved to them.

…

Returning to Inoue Ueya's perspective, everyone has returned to the ground at this time. Using Natsukawa Hanako's perception ability, they are looking for Iwanaga Kotoko and others. Everyone follows her to the main entrance of Seinagaji Temple.

When they arrived at the main entrance of the temple, they first saw a damaged stage. Tamaki and others next to them had a lot of injuries. Kotoko Iwanaga was helping them treat their wounds.

"Well, are there any wounded..."

"Quickly, let's go over and help."

"That's right, we can't let that agent underestimate our power!"

Well, after what happened just now, the morale of the monsters has increased inexplicably.

Although Inoue Ueya and Nura Rikuo successively mentioned to them that the next battle was very dangerous, no one among them chose to quit, and all of them expressed that they would persist until the last moment.

Until now, Inoue Ueya still can't understand their thoughts. He has said it to this point, why do they still stay...
