Chapter 577 Is Wakasa Rumi the Thorn Princess?

Vodka, grateful for Bourbon's help, immediately spoke up when he saw that the other was struggling: "Bourbon, step aside, let me do it!"

Vodka held the shield, which was half his height, in his hand, and charged forward, mimicking the method that Rumi Wakasa had just used.

"boom!"

When Rumi Wakasa stepped on the shield, the immense impact caused the shield to begin to deform instantly.

The 200-pound vodka actually pushed backward.

"Click——"

Vodka's face turned pale instantly. The last time he heard such a sound seemed to be in Izu.

"It's broken! It's broken!"

Rumi Wakasa ignored Vodka and instead used the shield as a foothold, leaping into the air, using her waist and abdomen to whip her long legs into a blur.

"Damn it!"

Vodka's arrival did not improve the situation; Curaçao, on the contrary, felt even more strained, struggling to block the whip-like kick that felt like a giant axe with both hands.

The numbness sent a chill down Curaçao's spine. "Bourbon and I are no match for her?"

Little did she know that Amuro Tooru had unknowingly reached a tacit understanding with Wakasa Rumi. Their attacks, though seemingly deadly, were actually very light, leaving no red marks.

“Gin, no, if Vermouth doesn’t come, then let Gil come and help, or stop guarding outside.”

Curaçao is acutely aware of its current predicament; its numerical advantage has not materialized, and its weak fighting strength speaks volumes.

Alak alone couldn't defeat Xia Chuan, and their side was about to be overturned.

While Xia Chuan was locked in a fierce battle with Arak, he glanced at the other side of the battlefield. Curaçao's voice was quite loud, and he could hear it clearly.

However, adding another undercover agent doesn't seem to have any effect.

Amuro Tooru wanted to cause trouble, but so did Kir.
A moment later, Kiel appeared at the gate.

"Kiel, hurry and help!"

"I understand." No matter how unwilling he was, Kiel had no choice but to bite the bullet and go ahead.

"Look at the knife!"

Before launching his attack, Kiel grabbed the tactical dagger from his waist and even gave a warning.

Curaçao is going crazy.

She finally understood why Gil had been idle for so long and hadn't been used by Gin. If he were one of her subordinates, he would have been killed long ago for this pre-battle announcement!

Fortunately, Kiel was not entirely useless; her arrival alerted Rumi Wakasa.

Without knowing the strength of the enemy, it is natural to focus on attacking.

The sharp dagger fell swiftly.

"Qiang!"

The blade was blocked in front of Rumi Wakasa.

Rumi Wakasa breathed a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that this newly added combatant was just so-so!

Suddenly, a steel wire appeared in her hand.

The steel wire was wrapped around both ends of her hands, with the middle section firmly wedging the dagger and preventing it from penetrating any further.

Rumi Wakasa suddenly leaped up, her body completing a 720-degree spin in mid-air, kicking Curaçao, who was trying to launch a sneak attack, away.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Amuro Tooru also stepped forward and took a kick to prove his existence.

"Xia Chuan, surrender. Have you thought about what will happen to your girlfriend and daughter now?"

Arak stopped what he was doing, panting heavily, but he didn't stop trying to distract Xia Chuan with Joel and Anya.

"Belmod and Ireland might have already taken your wife and daughters by now, and you still have the nerve to play house with us?"

"It seems that your organization hasn't gathered enough intelligence on Joel, otherwise you wouldn't have said such a thing."

Xia Chuan tilted his head, a half-smile on his face, and said, "Have you ever considered that the reason your teammates haven't shown up yet is because they've already been killed?"

"You really are different from the others."

Arak frowned. Was Xia Chuan really that confident in Yor?

“It’s not that I’m different from others, it’s just that you underestimate Yor.” Xia Chuan murmured, launching himself into the air.

The straight punches came crashing down, and Alak had lost count of how many times he had blocked them; his arms were completely numb.

He took a few steps back again, unable to control his expression. As the battle continued, the damage Xia Chuan inflicted on him grew greater and greater.

That's incredibly powerful!
But Natsukawa's greatest strength is his speed.

Arak was caught in a dilemma.

He's currently outmatched in strength and speed, but the fact that he's managed to hold out this long without taking too many hits is thanks to his extensive experience.

However, he never imagined that Xia Chuan could actually be faster and stronger.

They just wanted to use them to weaken Wakasa Rumi's power.

In addition, I also want to force Gin and Vermouth to come out.

Gil has already appeared, so how far behind can Gin be?
"Your strength is still a bit lacking. Is this all you've got? Show us some high-end combat power!"

Xia Chuan still had a smile on his face, but it was a smile that sent chills down one's spine.

It was as if Xia Chuan had been prepared all along.

Gin was worried about this, so he kept observing from the outside, wanting to know whether Natsukawa had any reinforcements.

Seeing that the situation was unstable and there was no movement outside, Gin was even considering going in.

But Xia Chuan's words made him start to worry again.

He was alone on the perimeter now, and he didn't know what Vermouth and Ireland were doing. If he left, and Xia Chuan's reinforcements arrived, how should the organization handle the situation?

What should we do about the boss's mission? We absolutely cannot afford to lose this golden mansion; we must get it, even if we have to steal it!
Gin remained silent for a long time before finally pulling out a rectangular object that resembled a remote control.

This is a specially designed remote control, specifically for controlling signal jammers; therefore, it is effective within the range of the signal jammer.

Not only is it effective, but it also reacts very quickly.

"At this point, it seems the only option is to have outside members present."

Gin put his hand to his forehead and looked towards the annex.

Regardless, we must kill everyone here tonight.

Seeing that everyone is fighting, even if he turns on the signal jamming device, the others probably won't notice, right?

However, we should inform the boss first.

Gin pulled out the walkie-talkie again.

After a rustling sound.

"how?"

For Karasuma Renya, it was best to speak as little as possible, because he was finding it hard to breathe.

"My lord, I'm worried that Natsukawa has other plans, and Wakasa Rumi is too strong."

"Is it too strong?"

Karasuma Renya paid no attention to Natsukawa. After learning of Natsukawa's purpose, his only targets were Kinokono and Wakasa Rumi.

"Yes, you know how strong Bourbon and Curaçao are, but even they can only go toe-to-toe with Rumi Wakasa."

Gin was actually being conservative, because Calvados was also injured by the other side, and neither Vodka nor Kiel's joining the fight yielded good results.

However, he certainly couldn't bring up the problems with Vodka and Kiel, since they were both his subordinates. If they were incompetent, wouldn't that imply that he had poor judgment in people and that his subordinates were all useless?

"With such strength, why would he have a grudge against the organization?"

Karasuma Renya asked疑惑地问道：“Have you seen her before?”

"No!" Gin replied firmly.

Putting aside his face blindness, Rumi Wakasa's tail was left by Rum, and Gin had never even seen her before.

"Over the past year, it seems there have been many more people with grievances against the organization, and who are also very powerful."

“Yes.” Gin nodded, then began to plan: “The Thorn Princess, Joel, Natsukawa, Wakasa Rumi”

Gin felt there were more than just these few; the organization's operations were frequently encountering problems, and there was a high probability that there were others operating in secret.

Moreover, this does not include Shuichi Akai of the Japanese Public Security Bureau and the FBI.

"and many more!"

Gin suddenly remembered something.

"My lord, Princess Thorn is a woman, and this woman named Wakasa Rumi is also a woman, and her fighting prowess is almost identical to that of Princess Thorn!"

"I don't think there could be that many amazing people in this world. Do you think they might all be the same person?!"

"This also explains why the Thorn Princess went to great lengths to attack us before; it's very likely because she had a scholar standing behind her."

Gin had a moment of doubt about Joel, but the bizarre character of Joel being a policeman on the surface but an assassin in secret was simply unrealistic.

"possible."

Karasuma Renya nodded in agreement; Gin's guess coincided with his own thoughts.

He had been wondering why the Thorn Princess had inexplicably started targeting the organization.

Now we may have the answer.

Perhaps Princess Thorn is Wakasa Rumi, and Wakasa Rumi is a scholar!
She was the product of the scholars' experiments, and the scholars did all this because they wanted revenge!

Are there any traces of scholars in the annex?

Gin shook his head and said, "Nothing has been found yet, but Vermouth and Ireland haven't shown up. Did you send them to find scholars?"

Karasuma Renya fell silent for a moment. He had told Vermouth about the scholar, but he hadn't arranged for her to go find him.

However, considering Vermouth's combat prowess, it seems unlikely that joining the battle would be effective. Ireland, on the other hand, is quite strong, but it's certainly not safe for Vermouth to act alone.
"You don't need to worry about Vermouth for now. Focus on dealing with Natsukawa and Wakasa Rumi."

"Sir, I think we should send out the outer guards. The situation is very unfavorable for us right now. I'm worried that if we keep dragging this out, they might send reinforcements. After all, this is Xia Chuan's conspiracy and trap, so it's only natural that he has a backup plan."

"can."

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Gin immediately smiled.

After hanging up the walkie-talkie, immediately press the remote control.

The next moment, the shielding radio waves that had enveloped the entire mountain area vanished instantly.

Gin immediately took out his phone and contacted Tequila.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."

"Ok?"

Gin's smile froze on his face. Why couldn't he get in touch with Tequila at this moment? Wasn't he supposed to be ready to provide support at any time?

Inside the hall, Xia Chuan suddenly felt his phone vibrate in his pocket, and his expression changed slightly.

Someone called him, and it was the organization's phone.

Has the signal been restored?

But at this time...
Arak seized the opportunity instantly and kicked Xia Chuan in the chest.

"Da da da--"

Xia Chuan took the opportunity to step back, using the Roman columns in the hall as footholds, and leaped to the second floor.
