Chapter 414 Pong!
At the same time, on the streets outside Namba City, an astonishingly sharp blade slashed across the sky.
Kamiizumi Muneshige swung his sword horizontally, the blade clashing with a halberd, a dazzling light erupting like thunder, colliding with the sword's energy.
Kamiizumi Muneshige repelled his opponent with a single strike, but was also forced to land on the ground.
On the other side, Gryphon, clad in armor, halted his retreat in mid-air, his force field halberd radiating intense lightning.
"Glion, you're breaking the contract!"
Kamiizumi Muneshige stared at the other person and said in a cold voice.
"Our agreement was for the general to return to the Western Union."
Gryphon hovered in mid-air and chuckled, "And now, it's just a little preparation before the general's return."
"Let all the stubborn fools come out and then wipe them out in one fell swoop. The rest will be accepted by the general himself and granted Western Union citizenship. Unfortunately, Mr. Kamiizumi chose the stubborn ones."
Upon hearing this, Kamiizumi Muneshige trembled violently, and his usually sharp, knife-like gaze wavered significantly.
"What do you mean?" he asked, as if he couldn't believe it.
But no matter how hard he couldn't believe it, Kamiizumi Muneshige knew he had been tricked.
The Western Allied Army's goal was not simply to get the general back; they wanted to eliminate all those within Japan who were always enemies of the general.
Kamiizumi Muneshige thought he could get rid of the general through compromise, but little did he know that he was delivering himself to the enemy's door.
Those who uphold the king's authority must be eliminated, because they are the group most loyal to Japan.
Regardless of the final outcome, Gryphon will take action against those who uphold the King.
Glion did not answer directly, but said only, "Although we were unable to achieve complete success and had to change our plans midway, thanks to Mr. Kamiizumi's cooperation, we have basically grasped the target to be eliminated. In addition, we also thank Mr. Kamiizumi for gathering most of the loyalists to the Emperor."
"To express my gratitude, I will personally see Mr. Izumi off on his journey."
As he spoke, Gryphon's body suddenly began to grow taller and expand, and his battle form also deformed along with the change in his body shape.
Its height increased dramatically to about 2.2 meters, with sharp bone spurs growing from its elbows and other joints, and black scales visible where the armor did not cover them.
A pair of sharp horns grew on the top of its head, and the pupils of its eyes lengthened, becoming vertical pupils.
In a matter of seconds, Glion underwent a dramatic transformation, becoming like a humanoid dragon, exuding a terrifying aura.
This is Western Union's genetic modification.
Judging from their appearance, they should still be from the Black Dragon Legion under Mo, the fifth son of the god of the human world.
Western Union's new weapons are known for their transplanted mechanical bodies, but to modify a human body, one needs to be proficient in biology.
In fact, Western Union's biology is also very advanced. After the mechanical transplantation and modification, their gene modification technology has also developed rapidly.
Hoder, the fifth son of the God of the Mortal Realm, is a purely genetically modified new warrior. He transplanted the genes of a giant beast from the Mountain and Sea Realm and fused them with his own genes, making him the first genetically engineered warrior in the Western Alliance to achieve perfect fusion.
His Black Dragon Legion was on par with the Ultramarines Legion, and all its members had acquired a second-tier behemoth physique by transplanting Hodr's fused genes.
However, Hoddle and the general's relationship is not good. The two have always been in a competitive state. The fact that Glion, an eight-star former member of the Black Dragon Legion, would appear under the general's command must have been the result of a fierce struggle.
However, Kamiizumi Muneshige was no longer interested in the details. His mind had been shaken by Grian's words and was now filled with shock, anger, and shame.
Until this moment, Kamiizumi Muneshige was still weighing whether to break the plan and become an enemy of the shogun.
On one hand, there's the plan to send the general away through compromise; on the other hand, there are loyalists who could gather at any moment.
To be honest, Kamiizumi Muneshige had considered secretly rescuing key members at the expense of the rest.
This is a necessary sacrifice.
The general is simply too strong, too strong to be matched. If that were all, it would be fine, but the problem is that there is now a path that does not require fighting against the general, and even Kamiizumi Muneshige, an eight-star martial artist, cannot help but waver because of it.
Now it's all good, there's no need to hesitate anymore, the other side has been targeting the warriors who want to destroy the Venerable King from the very beginning.
But that's precisely why it's so infuriating.
Now, it's not just about eliminating those who uphold the King's authority; we must also annihilate the remaining resistance forces in Japan.
In just a few short days, unrest and chaos broke out across the Steel Continent. The Western Alliance had already ascertained the backgrounds of the vast majority of people and prepared a list of those to be eliminated.
This trend was started by those who revered the emperor.
Glion naturally noticed Kamiizumi Muneshige's current state, and while a smug look flashed across his face, he waited for Brolin to arrive.
The powerful figures under the general also had their own tasks, with most of them keeping an eye on Heian-kyo and other important cities. This was because the unrest hadn't only occurred in Namba City, but Heian-kyo was also home to the largest number of powerful figures in Japan, as well as the nominal supreme authority, making it a place that needed to be guarded against.
Currently, only Glion and Brolin, both eight-stars, remain in Namba City.
According to the plan, after taking down Bai Ze, Brolin should come here to join Glion in besieging and killing Kamiizumi Muneshige.
I had already received news that Brolin had succeeded, and she should be here by now.
However, Brolin was nowhere to be found, and there was not even a word from her.
Seeing that time was passing, Glion immediately made a decision.
—Make your move!
This is a golden opportunity; who knows if Kamiizumi Muneshige will be able to recover his composure?
Moreover, given his strength, dealing with an unwell Kamiizumi Muneshige would be easy; waiting for Brolin was simply to ensure everything went smoothly.
At that moment, the lightning-field halberd pierced the night, descending from the sky and striking the unsettled warrior.
"They've made their move."
Bai Ze, who was located somewhere in the suburbs, was the first to notice the battle between the two.
Once eight-star martial artists engage in a full-force battle, unless it's a one-sided crushing defeat, the aftershocks are enough to cause a huge commotion that's difficult to contain.
With Bai Ze's perception, it wouldn't be too easy for him to detect them.
The fact that Glion was alone meant he had no other help. Brolin, on the other hand, was focused on stabilizing Rhine's injuries and wouldn't be able to leave for the time being. So—
Bai Ze looked at the towering flames in the distance and the shadowy figures weaving through the night sky.
"First, solve the air power problem."
Bai Ze softly uttered a single word: "pong!"
Boom boom boom boom boom—
.
Five huge fireworks suddenly burst into the night sky.
While the Western Union's latest fighter jets are indeed a huge threat, their missiles and laser devices are practically a massacre against low-level warriors.
But dealing with them is also quite simple.
All Bai Ze needs to do is move his mouth slightly to detonate its energy.
"Then, it's time to annihilate the ground forces."
