Chapter 231
What?!
Seeing his Berettas entire gun body suddenly split apart simultaneously, Tohyama Kinji couldnt help but reveal a look of astonishment.
When?!
Looking at the completely split appearance of the Beretta, Fang Li must have made a deep cut on it, right?
However, when did he manage to do that?
Tohyama Kinji was completely clueless.
Its important to note that in Hysteria Mode, once he concentrates his mind, Tohyama Kinji can even see the trajectory of bullets.
However, he had no idea when Fang Li had deeply cut into his Beretta. He hadnt even noticed it, let alone seen it.
Right before activating Bullet Thunder, the Multiplying Barrage had been protecting me the entire time. How did he manage to attack the gun?
Thinking this, Tohyama Kinjis realization came almost instantly.
So thats how it is. It must have been at the moment when the Multiplying Barrage transformed into Bullet Thunder.
Only in that instant did Fang Li have the opportunity to attack.
Afterward, Fang Li had been pushed back and away from Tohyama Kinji by Bullet Thunder.
And before Bullet Thunder was activated, with the protection of the Multiplying Barrage, it would have been equally impossible for Fang Li to hit the Beretta.
Thus, it must have been precisely during the split second when the Multiplying Barrage turned into Bullet Thunder.
In that brief split second, Fang Li had launched an attack. While Tohyama Kinji was fully focused on activating Bullet Thunder, Fang Li had used that moment to swing his blade extremely fast, severing the Beretta.
That strike was named Seven Nights.
Flas.h.i.+ng Scabbard Absolute DeathSeven Nights Fang Li looked at Tohyama Kinji and stated, Its the fastest move in my repertoire. Even for you, if youre not particularly cautious, the result will be the same.
Now, heres the question. Fang Li lifted his Moonlight Dagger and asked with a faint smile on his face, If my previous strike had targeted not the Beretta but your neck, what do you think the outcome would have been?
This statement sent a s.h.i.+ver down Tohyama Kinjis spine.
Indeed.
If that strike had targeted Tohyama Kinjis neck instead of the Beretta, what would the outcome have been?
The answer was simple: Tohyama Kinjis head would have rolled to the ground.
So, dont stand in my way anymore. Fang Li directed his Moonlight Dagger toward Tohyama Kinji and spoke with a deliberate tone, I dont know what made you choose to stand against me, but my patience is limited, and I dont have the time to linger here playing your games.
Finis.h.i.+ng his statement, Fang Li retracted his Moonlight Dagger into his s.p.a.ce.
Just as Fang Li was preparing to leave, the silent Tohyama Kinji suddenly spoke up.
Even without weapons, it doesnt mean you cant fight. Tohyama Kinji tossed aside his Beretta and focused his gaze on Fang Li, saying, Those are your own words.
Is that so? Fang Li raised an eyebrow, gazing at Tohyama Kinji, and responded, In other words, youre determined to stop me today?
Because thats the only thing I can do. The confusion in Tohyama Kinjis eyes faded away, replaced by the distinct bright light of Hysteria Mode.
The Tohyama Clan is a clan rooted in Justice, and generation after generation, theyre known as the Emissaries of Justice.
Honestly, in this day and age, claiming to be the Emissaries of Justice really makes people wonder if youve lost your mind.
But, our family is precisely this kind of lost their minds folks and we have been like this generation after generation, and as a result, weve lost many members early on.
I dont want to die so soon, so becoming a Butei, for instance, is something Id rather avoid if possible.
But no matter what, I am still a member of the Tohyama family. At least let me act once in the name of this Justice.
Saying this, Tohyama Kinji a.s.sumed a stance.
It was a stance with his whole body tensed, fists clenched, brought close to his waist, like a stance of horse-riding.
That is Fang Lis expression couldnt help but tense up as he looked at this.
Having dealt with Tohyama Kinji for a year, Fang Li had gained some understanding of the Tohyama Clan.
The people of this clan not only possessed the Hysteria Mode but also had an incredibly intricate martial arts inheritance.
Just like Tohyama Kinji, who had developed techniques such as the Mirror, Multiplying Barrage, and Bullet Thunder using his intellect in Hysteria Mode, the Tohyama family, for several centuries, had been a lineage of outstanding samurai who had not only relied on Hysteria Mode but also developed martial arts specific to their clan.
Therefore, just as the Nanaya Clan had the a.s.sa.s.sination Technique that pushed the human body to its peak, the Tohyama Clan also had the Profound Truth that maximized the bodys abilities under Hysteria Mode.
Initially, Fang Li had heard about this, and at one point, he had even tried to get Tohyama Kinji to demonstrate it, but his attempts had remained unsuccessful.
Now, had Tohyama Kinji finally chosen to use it?
However, just when Fang Li was thinking this way, Tohyama Kinji denied his conjecture.
In the past, my father divided the Tohyama familys techniques into two parts, giving one to me and one to my big brother, Tohyama Kinji explained, Because my big brother and I have different personalities, he learned the 48 forms used for offense, while I learned the 52 forms used for defense and counterattacks. Therefore, the techniques I can use for offense are the ones Ive developed myself.
This is a kind of Taijutsu that coordinates various parts of the body and accelerates them, Tohyama Kinjis stance slowly unfolded as he locked his gaze onto Fang Lis body.
By utilizing the reflex nerves under Hysteria Mode, I can achieve an instantaneous burst speed for various parts of my body: a hundred kilometers per hour for the toes, two hundred kilometers per hour for the knees, three hundred kilometers per hour for the waist and back, five hundred kilometers per hour for the shoulders and elbows, and a hundred kilometers per hour for the wrists.
As long as I move these parts simultaneously, even if its just for a split second, the sum of their speeds will reach one thousand two hundred and thirty-six kilometers per hour, turning my next strike into a supersonic one.
This strike will cause significant damage to my arm, even to the point that I would lose my combat ability.
If you want to leave, then brace yourself for the next strike.
At this moment, the presence of Tohyama Kinjis body swelled.
It was as if his whole body had grown taller.
Sensing that swelling presence, Fang Li knew that Tohyama Kinjis words were definitely not an attempt to deliberately mystify himself.
In that case Fang Li met Tohyama Kinjis gaze and declared, I will take your strike with everything I have.
There was no overt stance.
There were no explicit countermeasures.
Fang Li simply stood there naturally, on the spot, while his bodys presence began to expand, much like Tohyama Kinjis.
In the next second, Fang Li and Tohyama Kinji both stamped the ground simultaneously and, at an unprecedented speed, surged toward each other.
