"If I ask you to participate in the encirclement and suppression of Ogata Ittousai, I'm afraid that after Ogata Ittousai dies, many of our people will be hacked to death by you."

"So - keep waiting for me."

"Whenever a task suitable for you appears, I will naturally send you..."

Bang!

There was a loud explosion like thunder.

This was the sound the branding woman made after slamming the floor beneath her feet.

The branded woman flashed in front of Jijiu at a speed that seemed like she was teleporting.

bass!

With a fierce look in her eyes, she pulled out the wakizashi from her left waist.

Jijiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he also pulled out a wakizashi hanging from his waist.

laugh!

laugh!

The sound of two sharp objects entering the body sounded at the same time.

The branding woman's knife pierced Jijiu's left shoulder.

Jijiu's knife pierced the branded woman's right abdomen.

Both of them were stabbed, and blood was everywhere on the ground, but they both acted like nothing happened.

"You old immortal ninja! Are you addicted to the commander-in-chief?! Ah?!"

The appearance of the branded woman at this time was particularly terrifying.

His eyes were wide open as if the corners of his eyes were about to burst open at any moment, and veins like earthworms popped out on his neck. I'm afraid the legendary Rakshasa and Prajna ghosts were nothing more than this.

"There is nothing we can do." Yoshihisa's tone was still unhurried, "After all, Toyotomi-sama gave me the right to give orders."

The words "Toyotomi-sama" seemed to have some magic power, which made the brand woman, who was currently in a state of madness, have a look of reason in her eyes.

"Tsk... Damn it!!"

The branded woman yelled obscenities in an angry tone, and then pulled out the knife that had penetrated Jijiu's body.

After the branded woman put away her knife, Jijiu also took back the knife that had penetrated the branded woman's body.

After the two sides withdrew their knives, a strange scene unfolded on both of them at the same time - streaks of red flesh emerged from their wounds. In just the blink of an eye, the wounds on their bodies recovered without even a trace.

can not see.

"You old fool! Remember this! We are not done yet!!"

The branded woman strode out of the room with an angry look on her face.

Jijiu sheathed the sword while looking at the leaving figure of the branded woman.

"...Brother, please be patient. If you stay in this formation for a while, some...interesting things may happen."

"Ah?" The branded woman stopped and turned to cast an impatient look at Jijiu, "What do you mean?"

"Where should...be better to start..." Jijiu raised his hand and stroked the gray goatee on his chin, his eyes were lowered, with a complicated expression in them.

…

…

Osaka, somewhere in the northwest suburbs——

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Isshikihua swallowed to moisten her throat that had become dry due to heavy breathing. After the saliva slid down her esophagus and into her stomach, she felt a bit of blood coming out of her mouth.

"I'm sorry... I must be very heavy..." Ogata, who was supported by Isshiki Hana, gave her an apologetic smile.

"No." Isshikihua shook her head, "You are much lighter than I thought."

After saying that, Isshikika raised her hand and touched Ogata's forehead.

"...Master Ittousai, your body temperature is indeed getting higher and higher..."

Isshiki Hana slowly put away the hand that had just touched Ogata's forehead with a worried look on her face.

Just now, Isshiki almost suspected that what she touched was not a human forehead, but a piece of red-hot iron...

Since just now, Isshikika has vaguely felt that Ogata's body temperature seems to be getting higher and higher, and now, she finally dares to conclude that this is indeed the case.

"When we get to a safe place, I will try to find a doctor for you..." Isshikihua said.

She didn't know exactly what was going on with Ogata's current physical condition, but she felt that it would be right to take Ogata to see a doctor.

"Ha..." Ogata let out a self-deprecating laugh, "Doctors... probably can't cure me now... and there shouldn't be a doctor in this place..."

"Is it my imagination...I feel like your face, Lord Ittosai, has become even uglier than before, and your tone of voice has become even weaker..."

"If I told you 'I'm fine'...you probably wouldn't believe it..." Ogata tried his best to move his tongue and let out a joking laugh.

Just as Isshikika said just now - Ogata's current physical condition is indeed worse than when he was hiding in the Buddhist hall just now.

Just now, Ogata could barely speak and could hear his voice clearly.

But now, speaking has become an extremely strenuous task for Ogata, and there is a strong tinnitus in his ears, which makes Ogata have to concentrate all his energy to hear Isshikika's words clearly.

"...Ittosai-sama, please bear with me a little longer." Isshikika took a deep breath and lifted Ogata's left arm around her neck, "I will go there as soon as I get to a safe place.

Find a doctor for you."

"Maybe we can find a doctor who can cure you."

Although Isshikika tried her best to hide it, Ogata could still vaguely detect the strong uneasiness and worry in her eyes.

Seeing the uneasiness and worry in Isshiki's eyes, Ogata smiled slightly.

"Miss Isshiki, don't worry."

"I will be fine, let alone die."

Ogata slowly raised his eyes, looking straight at the road ahead and the skyline ahead.

Even if the condition is so bad that I can't even walk steadily.

Even talking now is difficult.

But Ogata's eyes never changed from beginning to end.

The pupils of his eyes were always burning with light like fire.

"Even if I endure inhuman pain...I will never bow to death..."

It was as if he was responding to what Ogata said just now.

The large patch of purple skin on the left side of Ogata's neck changed again.

They seemed to be alive, and their area shrank by a large circle again...

…

…

Osaka, Ryusuji Temple——

——Very good... It seems that the strength of this formation has indeed become extremely empty...

Chu Guang, who was hiding in the shadow of a beam somewhere in the temple, nodded slightly with a satisfied look on his face.

——Then next...victory or defeat will depend on this!

Chu Guang took a deep breath, and then walked carefully along the beams at his feet towards the depths of the temple...

For Hatsumi, who had stayed at Ryusuji Temple as a "herald soldier" not long ago, she naturally knew everything about Ryusuji Temple...that is, the composition of the permanent personnel of the Toyotomi Army's main formation.

Yoshihisa, the frontline commander of the "Osaka Haru Formation and Operation Rebellion" and one of the "Three Demons".

The branded woman, one of the "Three Demons".

A reserve force composed of 50 elite Iga ninjas with high mobility. The members of the reserve force are also responsible for protecting the safety of the main formation when on standby.

The "Honjin Defense Force" consists of more than 30 Iga ninjas.

The "Herald Force" composed of more than 30 Iga ninjas.

Plus some wounded who were sent back to our formation for treatment.

There are no musketeer troops stationed in this formation, and all musketeer troops have been dispatched outside to perform the combat mission of the "Osaka Spring Formation and Combat Operation".

The above is the composition of the entire permanent personnel of the Toyotomi Army Main Formation.

Chu Guang not only knows the composition of the permanent personnel of this formation, she also knows the distribution of sentries.

——There is no way around here...

Chu Guang, who was crouching on the beam, frowned slightly and looked at the male ninja in front of him who was also crouching on the beam, with his back to her.

--no solution anymore……
