Chapter 44 - 8: Great Kansei Purge 2: Powerful Opponent

The Samurai present began to lose hope seeing the guns aimed at them, there was no escape, the expression of Jirocho and Tatsugorou was darkened, even them, usually encouraging fell into despair.

"But don't worry my Joui friends, this operation does not concern you alone, currently all the big Joui groups are under attack, including the White Loincloth Saigou and Hiraga Saburou ones, so don't worry, you'll join your friends at Enma! Hahahahaha!!!"Says she with a big laugh full of provocation

The atmosphere became tense, everything was silent and the cannon of the floating sh.i.p.s slowly began to light up.

But suddenly at the same time two great waves of sharp wind blew through Katsu's ship.

"Hahaha...uh?...what's going on? Aghhh!!!!!!!"

*Bang* *Bang*

Then the next second, two large notches appeared on the hull of the ship which was divided into three the next moment falling slowly to the ground.

"What the hell are you doing?! Wake the f.u.c.k up!"

Everyone's eyes fell on Haruto as he walked towards the sh.i.p.s with a katana in each hand.

"If you're afraid, get the hell out of here!" shouted Haruto

The eyes of all the Joui stared at Haruto as he walked towards the sh.i.p.s without looking at them.

Then their eyes became firm, he drew all their katana and put themselves in a fighting position.

"Lord Haruto, we're ready for battle!"

"In Joui we fear nothing!"

"Hahahaha let's do a river of blood flow my Katana is thirsty hahahaha!"

Tatsugoro took a pipe from his pocket, lit it and took a deep puff of smoke before approaching Haruto, then Jirocho pulled out his Katana by scratching his hair.

"You think we're gonna let you have all the fun by yourself, you f.u.c.k.i.n.g kid." Said Tatsugorou, also drawing his katana.

"Today's youth really underestimate the old gumps that we are." Jirocho complains.

Haruto smiled when he heard this and moved into attack position as well.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

"Shave!"

The shells were fired from the first ship, then from the second, a slight whitish aura escaped from his body, Haruto disappeared instantly and then his silhouette quickly throughout each shell.

*Boom* Boom*

The shells deviated from their original targets and crashed into other sh.i.p.s.

But at the same time hundreds of Amantos with jetpacks left the sh.i.p.s and headed towards the Jouis.

"You lazy bastards! Kill them all without mercy waiting Haruto's destroy damn sh.i.p.s!!!!!" Shouted Tatsugoro

"Yes Boss!!!"

"HAAAH!!!!"

Then began a bloody confrontation between them and the members of Joui.

Meanwhile Haruto arrived on the main deck of the first ship.

The white aura around his body increased greatly, then he went on the offensive.

He crossed the deck of the ship and quickly arrived at its end before using Moonsteps to move to the next ship.

*Booom*

The ship was perfectly cut in two, before slowly falling out of the sky under the cry of its crew.

"My ^Cut^ takes too long, otherwise it's a fantastic destruction technique." Thinked Haruto as he moved fast and slicing through the shells on his road.

The cut technique is a technique that he invented by using his physical energy.

He had long noticed that his physical energy (Aura) could not only multiply his physical strength and body tenfold, but also creating air flows once outside his body.

Then an idea came to his mind and if he compressed the air flow in his katana with the help of his aura.

Thus he created this destrictive technique, but it also had its weaknesses, for example it took him at least two seconds to prepare an attack and one to launch it, he could not change the angle of the attack once launched, and the farther the distance between him and his target was, the more the power of the attack diminished once he reached his target.

Haruto lowered his head and see the cannons of the sh.i.p.s which gave off a bright light.

"They want to fire at same time and kill everybody all at once, but who says I'll give them time!"

He took a deep breath and then the aura around his body suddenly increased and then he crossed the sky like an arrow and a huge flow of wind passed through the sh.i.p.s one by one without stopping.

*Booom* *Booom* *Booom*

Although the sh.i.p.s were not completely cut, they have suffer enormous damage forcing them to land, some sh.i.p.s began to catch fire while the Amantos on board screaming abandoned them.

Others whose ammunition stocks were hit even began to explode with their crews.

"Hahaha long live Lord Haruto! kil theml!!!!"

"Attack!"

"Aghh!"

The joui on the ground finished the enemies who had survived to the fall and began to storm the sh.i.p.s that were forced to land, following Tatsugorou and Jirocho they massacred the Amantos on their way.

A few minutes later there was only one floating vessel left which had been away from the others since the beginning of the battle.

Haruto arrived on the main deck, but on his arrival he was not greeted by Amantos, but by a dozen of perfectly fair-skinned humans dressed in Manchu-style clothes, each of them carrying umbrellas of different colours

Haruto's pupils narrowed, he took a deep breath and went in a offensive position.

"These guys are all extraordinarily strong! I absolutely must not let them off this ship, Tatasugorou, Jirocho and the others are no match for such monsters!!!"

His aura grew even more, but just as he was about to launch his attack three of the men appeared in front of him.

"They can follow my speed!" Haruto thought surprised.

One of them threw an uppercut towards his chin, the second aimed him with his umbrella and the last one kicked him violently.

Haruto then let go of his two katanas, then for a brief moment grabbed the feet of the last one and the arm of the first one in less than a tenth of a second, then knocked them on their backs before hitting them with his palms with monumental violence, crushing them to the ground, then he grabbed his two katanas and blocked the bullets firing by the second one with his umbrella before kicking him at backwards.

*Bang* *Bang* *Bang*

The two crushed on the ground got up painfully and retreated quickly, the one he kicked made a backflip and stabilized after being thrown.

"Perfect! I never thought I would find a worthy opponent on this planet! Hahaha!" One of them, a man also carrying a large umbrella on his back, stepped forward and stopped in front of Haruto, he strong, physically endowed and had very lean and toned muscles.  He had a very manly looking face, with dark black eyes, and long, dark-gray hair.

"You guys take care of the ants on the ground, this one's mine." Says the man.

"Yes, Lord Housen!"
