Chapter 106: Chapter 105 Fujita Tooi_1
Translator: 549690339
Gonzalez City, Zedekiah Wharf.
As a coastal city, Gonzalez City has no less than ten wharves. Some are abandoned, while others are in operation.
Gonzalez City Wharf is one of the wharves currently under construction. During the day, construction teams were busy at work there, but at night, not even a shadow could be seen.
At this moment, Julius Reed stood alone on the wharf, hands in his pockets, gazing at the unfathomable depths of the ocean in the distance.
The night was devouring the light until the last glimmer of brightness disappeared at the junction of sea and sky, leaving Zedekiah Wharf completely shrouded in darkness.
It’s too much trouble to make a move when there are many people around in the city.
Thinking about it, he felt quite a failure. The Young Master of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance had actually fallen to the point where he was constantly subjected to assassination attempts!
He didn’t even have a capable employee by his side.
However, Cosmo had arrived that day, and from then on, he would be relieved of a lot of trouble.
Before long, a rustling noise came from the woods.
“Since you’re already here, come out!”
Julius Reed turned around and shouted in the direction of the woods.
After awakening his memory, although there was still much he couldn’t recall and only a part of his strength had returned, it was more than enough to deal with these people.
“Kid, are you asking for death?”
A ninja emerged from the woods.
He was dressed in white, with a red cloth tied around his head, and carried a curved sword upside down in his hand.
“Fujita Tooi!”
Recognizing the man’s attire, Julius Reed uttered a name.
“How do you know it’s me?”
Finding himself recognized, Fujita Tooi was a bit taken aback, but he quickly sneered, “Since you know it’s me, why not surrender without a fight!” “Since you’re here, how can I be satisfied without a fight?”
Julius Reed took slow steps, moving toward his opponent step by step.
Fujita Tooi, the infamous ninja! Held a prestigious reputation in the Shadow Warrior community, his signature move, Three-blade Slash, had taken countless lives!
In the past, even knights who tried to surround Fujita Tooi were repelled by the Three-blade Slash, which demonstrated his formidable strength!
He hadn’t planned on taking on this job, but the bounty had doubled in just two days.
Many famous Shadow Warriors, lured by the bounty and the penchant among them for competition, always looking to prove their strength over others, took on the challenge.
In the underground world, the movements of Shadow Warriors are secretive, and direct confrontations are rare.
Thus, bounties have become an important means of competition among them. If two people take on the same bounty, the one who completes it first gains recognition and prestige in the Shadow Warrior community.
After his own intelligence gathering, Fujita Tooi learned that many well-known Shadow Warriors, such as the Five Tigers and the Queen, were involved in this mission.
This piqued his interest, and as soon as he arrived in Gonzalez City, he immediately took action.
This mission had already attracted immense attention in the underground world, and if he could come out on top, his influence would undoubtedly increase.
“I don’t need a sword to kill you!”
Fujita Tooi smirked contemptuously, slowly sheathing his sword behind him.
Prior to his arrival, he had investigated and found that this Julius Reed had a simple background with no outstanding abilities.
What he didn’t know was that Deep Cold had completely fallen out with Julius Reed and even lost several experts in the process.
But Deep Cold’s good secrecy had prevented the news from spreading. “Is that so? Then you might regret it!”
Julius Reed smiled faintly and in an instant, he was standing right in front of Fujita Tooi.
Whoosh!
With the sound of the air being torn, Reed’s right hand transformed into a palm strike and mercilessly chopped down!
Bang!
Fujita Tooi was startled and quickly stepped back, extending his fists to defend!
He hadn’t expected his opponent to be so fast, and to attack fiercely right out of the gate!
After retreating a few steps, Fujita Tooi felt numbness in his hands, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.
“You’ve been hiding your strength!”
Looking at the frail-looking youth in front of him, his face showed a fluctuating expression. This ability was completely different from what the intelligence indicated; even he would likely only be able to kill his young opponent with difficulty!
However, Fujita Tooi didn’t see anything wrong with the situation since he hadn’t drawn his sword yet.
Once drawn, a ninja’s combat power can double in an instant.
“Didn’t you say you wouldn’t use a sword?”
When he saw Fujita Tooi’s hand reaching behind his back, Julius Reed spoke.
“Hah! Killing you would dirty my blade!”
Feeling humiliated by Reed’s comment, Fujita Tooi charged forward in a rush, his hands turning into claws as he viciously reached out to grab!
“Is that all you’ve got?”
Facing a sudden attack from his opponent, Julius Reed narrowed his eyes and stood his ground, not moving a muscle.
“Arrogant!”
Fujita Tooi felt insulted! The move he had just attempted was one of his killer techniques. His opponent not dodging meant that he was being underestimated!
“Die!”
Enraged, he exerted even more force in his hands and began to curse!
Bang!
When the double claws came at his face, Julius Reed bent his body backward at an unbelievable angle, while his left foot lashed out into the air!
Having missed with his strike, Fujita Tooi hadn’t even had the time to realize what happened when he was hit in the chest by that kick!
Splurt!
A spray of fresh blood burst from his mouth; his right hand appeared behind him in an instant!
Slice!
With a gleam of cold light, the ninja drew his blade!
At this moment, he couldn’t care less about anything else. All that mattered was that he could kill, regardless of what he had said before!
Facing the sudden attack, Julius Reed dodged to the side and swiftly took a step back!
Clang!
The blade’s gleam hit the ground of Zedekiah Wharf, shattering the bluestone pavement!
After the first slash missed, Fujita Tooi’s face finally displayed a solemn expression.
Slice!
He lightly tapped the ground with his foot and launched a second attack from the air!
A cold light flashed through the night sky, as if a meteor had swiftly streaked past!
Bang!
This time, Julius Reed didn’t dodge. He saw the opportunity and smashed his palm down onto Fujita Tooi’s wrist!
Fujita Tooi grunted, and the long blade flew out of his hand. But in the next instant, his other hand reached down to grasp the falling blade and quickly slashed forward! Three-blade Slash!
Slice!
The blade narrowly missed Julius Reed, cutting through the air beside him, and missing its target once again!
Bang!
Not giving his opponent another chance to strike, Julius Reed thrust out his right fist and hammered it down hard onto Fujita Tooi’s back!
“Splurt!”
“I cannot rest until I avenge this humiliation!”
Fujita Tooi spit out another mouthful of blood and vanished from the spot.
This was Ninjutsu, the safest way to escape!
“Trash, daring to come for the bounty!” Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Splat!
Following several gleams of cold light in the air, Fujita Tooi’s body fell to the ground.
Sticking out of him were dozens of silver needles, perfectly straight.
“This woman is still as ruthless with her strikes!”
From a distance, the Five Tigers couldn’t help but take in a breath of cold air.
They knew well what those silver needles were: the Queen’s unique hidden weapon, the Nine-Turn Heavenly Spirit Needles!
Coated with a strong poison, contact meant certain death within ten minutes!
Until his dying breath, Fujita Tooi hadn’t imagined that his confident fight for honor would end at the hands of the Queen.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Amidst a succession of high heels clicking, a woman stepped out from Baron Grey’s woods.
She wore a beret, was dressed in a snug long dress, and carried a scimitar in her hand.
“I didn’t expect you to be somewhat capable. However, in front of me, I’m afraid you’re unlikely to survive.”
The woman scoffed lightly, still approaching at a leisurely pace.
“Nine-Turn Heavenly Spirit Needles are extremely yin and soft. Clearly, you haven’t mastered them yet, hence choosing to coat them with poison,”
As Julius Reed spoke, the woman’s footsteps noticeably paused..
