Toyotomi Nobuhide let out a low cry of pain, covered his cheek that was instantly covered with blood with his left hand, and stepped back continuously.

While retreating, in order to prevent Genichi from pursuing him, Toyotomi Nobuhide swung his sword in the direction of Genichi and struck a heavy blow, forcing Genichi to take three steps back.

"Huh...hahahahaha..." Toyotomi Nobuhide, who retreated more than ten steps in one breath, covered his face covered with blood and let out a sinister chuckle, "It's amazing...it's really amazing."

"This is the first time I've been inextricably linked to someone since I gained the 'power of immortality'..."

Toyotomi Nobuhide put down his left hand covering his face.

There were no scars on his face anymore, only blood covering most of his face.

Genichi no longer rushed over to chase Toyotomi Nobuhide and beat him fiercely.

The series of fast attacks just now had made his breathing a little messy.

Toyotomi Nobuhide has not come back yet, so Genichi is happy to take this opportunity to adjust his breathing rhythm and regroup his posture.

"If time permits... I would rather have a good fight with you to see who is stronger and weaker between you and me."

Toyotomi Nobuhide raised his hand and wiped the blood from his face unhurriedly.

"But it's a pity that I don't have the leisure now to continue to slowly decide the outcome with you here."

An intriguing smile... appeared from the corner of Toyotomi Nobuhide's lips at this moment.

Looking at the smile on Toyotomi Nobuhide's face, for some reason... a chill came from Genichi's heart...

Minamoto has no way of knowing what Toyotomi Nobuhide wanted.

All he knew was that he was going to get closer and chop Toyotomi Nobuhide, that was right!

The originally chaotic breathing rhythm has been adjusted.

Genichi clenched his two swords tightly and pounced on Toyotomi Nobuhide like a sharp arrow from the string.

Facing Genichi Toyotomi Nobuhide, who was coming towards him again, he no longer held Yoshimitsu's bones in front of him.

He just smiled silently, then put his left hand into his arms and pulled out a small hand crossbow.

This hand crossbow is only as big as a hand, but it has been specially modified to be able to shoot four arrows at one go.

He did not aim the hand crossbow at Yuan Yi.

Instead, he aimed the hand crossbow at the still unconscious Lin who was leaning on the mainmast not far away and being protected by Toyotomi Nobuhide's subordinates!

Yuan Yi's pupils suddenly contracted at this moment.

Toyotomi Nobuhide has been observing Genichi's expression since just now.

Looking at Genichi's expression at this moment, Toyotomi Nobuhide showed... a smile of pure joy like a child.

Click!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Toyotomi Nobuhide pulled the trigger.

Four arrows rushed to bite Lin!

The situation was so urgent that Yuan didn't even have time to change his expression. He didn't hesitate at all and ran as fast as he could in the direction where the four arrows were flying.

In his desperate running, he narrowly missed the four arrows before they hit Lin.

He had just rushed over, and before he even had time to adjust his posture, he had to immediately launch a defense and intercept the incoming arrows. This was extremely difficult for Genichi.

But even if I force myself, I can only grit my teeth.

Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!

Yuan Yi waved his two swords, and the flashing sword light formed a thick "barrier", which barely managed to deflect all four arrows away.

However, after the four crossbow bolts were flicked away...

hiss!

Yoshimitsu Koushi's blade cut through the air and rain, and hit Genichi's head!

Just now, Yuan Yi reluctantly swung his sword to deflect the crossbow arrows. He had no time to adjust his posture, no time to dodge or defend...

Tsk!

The sound of the blade slicing flesh exploded...

"Oh...?" Toyotomi Nobuhide blinked twice, looking at Genichi who was quickly retreating and widening the distance between him and him with interest, "When my sword is about to hit my head, use all my strength."

Did I block it with all my strength, causing the path of the knife to deflect..."

Yuan Yi retreated to the railing near the side of the ship in one breath. After retreating without retreating, he stopped.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Yuan Yi vomited out a large amount of blood...

Although he wanted to stand up straight forever, the pain from the wound still caused Genichi's left leg to bend uncontrollably, and he knelt down on the deck with one knee.

The appearance of Yuan Yi at this moment... can be described as extremely terrifying.

A huge stab wound went from the left shoulder to the bottom of the right rib.

Hold Yang Shen tightly with your right hand, support Yang Shen on the deck, and try your best to prop up your body to prevent it from falling down.

Still holding Yan Rong's left hand, he clutched his chest tightly, trying to block the flow of blood.

But how could one of Yuan Yi's hands be able to seal such a big wound?

A large amount of blood gushed out from the wound, and in just a blink of an eye, more than half of Yuan's body was dyed red, turning Yuan Yi into a bloody man...

"This hand crossbow I bought from Tang Tu is really useful." After saying this in a joking tone, Toyotomi Nobuhide stuffed the hand crossbow that had been empty of arrows back into his arms, "Although I can't directly

I’ll be satisfied with killing you, but if I can seriously injure you.”

Toyotomi Nobuhide raised his left hand and gestured at his chest.

"I advise you not to move around."

He said in a mocking tone.

"A large gash was opened on the body from the left shoulder to under the right rib. If the body was moved randomly, the internal organs might flow out along the wound, adding unnecessary pain."

Faced with this "reminder" from Toyotomi Nobuhide, he ignored it.

He turned his head with difficulty and looked at Lin, who was still unconscious.

After confirming that he had successfully deflected all the arrows and that Lin was not injured, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Toyotomi Nobuhide noticed Genichi's small movements just observing Lin.

"Do you know why I brought Xiaolin to the open deck?"

Toyotomi Nobuhide's tone was still full of ridicule.

"Not just because of the current special situation, I want to bring Xiaolin where my eyes can see her."

"It's also because I think that by taking Xiaolin with me, I might be able to turn Xiaolin into a 'special weapon' that can effectively deal with you."

"I was just gambling."

"I bet you won't sit back and watch Xiaolin being shot into a hedgehog."

"If conditions permit, I don't really want to use this trick. After all, I don't like gambling very much."

"Fortunately, I made the right bet."

"You... are really... crazy...!"

Even though it was quite difficult to even say a word now, Yuan Yi still stubbornly cast a look at the madman in front of him that was reminiscent of a blade.

"Xiaolin's life...in your eyes...is it really nothing...?!"

"Hmm... not necessarily." Toyotomi Nobuhide smiled, "I still value Xiaolin's life. If Xiaolin dies, then my 'Edo War' will not be perfect."

Having said that, Toyotomi Nobuhide walked towards Genichi in a leisurely manner, carrying his Yoshimitsu bones, which had not been washed away by the rain and stained with blood and fat on the blade.

"Okay, let's stop talking about it."

"Please hurry up and get on your way, uncle."

"For being able to force me, who has the 'power of immortality', to the point of resorting to underhanded tactics to achieve quick victory, you are worthy of the name of 'Sword Master'."

At this time, Toyotomi Nobuhide's tone no longer contained the sarcasm.

There was only a hint of sadness in his tone.

"Not being born in the same era as you... is also a pity."

"Although you are an enemy, I can also be considered a swordsman. I also really want to see how terrifying your strength is when you are at your strongest."
