In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

"Well done, Samura." Okita Souji clenched his fist and smiled.

"You're really strong, Sakamoto Ryoma." He sheathed his katana and wiped the sweat from his face.

Suddenly, a white figure appeared in front of Zuo Cun.

Zuocun instinctively wanted to draw his sword, but after seeing who it was, he lowered his hand from the hilt.

“This is…” Okita Souji stepped forward.

Zuocun nodded, bent down, and asked, "Hoshiguma Yukina, are you alright?"

The white-clad Hoshiguma Setsuna was still beautiful, but somewhat disheveled. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine. She's very strong this season, so I'm naturally suppressed."

Miss A-Long picked up Hoshiguma Yukina.

"Huh?" Hoshiguma Setsuna was startled.

"She's supposed to be a kind of yokai, but her power is so weak." Miss Arlong lifted Hoshiguma Yukina up and observed.

"Uh—please, put me down..." Hoshiguma Yukina's face was flushed, and she thrashed about with her little hands and feet, but she was powerless against Ms. Arlong's hands, which only made her look a little more... cute.

"Alright, alright, Ms. Ryoma, let's put... Ms. Hoshiguma Yukina, anyway, let's put this lady down first." Ryoma patted Ms. Ryoma's hand with a smile.

"Oh." Miss A-Long smiled kindly and put Shirayuki on the ground.

"Huff, huff..." Hoshiguma Yukina patted her chest, looking curiously at Arlong-san, "Is this lady... also a yokai?"

"Yes, but please note that Miss A-Long is not a dragon." Miss A-Long smiled and waved to Yukina.

"Huh?" Hoshiguma Yukina stood there dumbfounded.

Just then, a huge roar came from the direction of Kurokawayama.

"roar------"

"Uh!" Several people covered their ears, and Miss A-Long's eyes suddenly turned red as she looked in the direction of the sound.

"—It's Mom, you need to leave quickly!" Hoshiguma Yukina said anxiously.

"I'm here to warn you that your mother is coming, so you should leave quickly!"

However, none of them moved an inch.

"Samura, what's your opinion?" Miss Okita stood beside Samura, nudged him with her elbow, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Seeing that Hoshiguma Yukina was getting a little anxious, Zuocun placed his hand... on Tsuruho's wings.

“Ms. Hoshiguma, thank you for your advice, but... the reason I returned here is to put an end to all of this.”

"Your mother, even in death, was determined to become a monster to protect her daughter. Such resolve..."

"Therefore, I will face her, even if she is very strong."

Hoshiguma Yukina was speechless.

"Let's go." Samura nodded to Ryoma and Okita, and started running.

The three of them, along with Miss A-Long who was floating in the air, sped towards the direction of Kurokawa Mountain.

Hoshiguma Yukina was sweating profusely, but she didn't know what to say.

The black bear disappeared halfway up the mountain, and a voluptuous woman wearing a black leather coat appeared in the same spot.

She has a good figure and a beautiful appearance.

But her eyes were blood-red, and two large, round axes appeared in her hands.

"Is it someone who wants to... hurt Yukina?"

Zuocun stood in front, looking at the woman who wielded two axes and had sharp teeth and claws.

This is the bear demon.

The bear demon who died unjustly.

"I'm just here to end this hell." Zuo Cun stroked the hilt of He He's sword, looking solemnly at the fierce and terrifying Mother Bear.

“…Then, go die.” Mother Bear narrowed her eyes.

call out--

Her speed was beyond imagination; in just an instant, she rushed in front of Zuo Cun.

Ping Pong —

As the crane wings were drawn, Zuo Cun was not struck by the double axes, but the bear mother's immense strength sent Zuo Cun flying.

"Samura!" Miss Okita shouted anxiously, then saw the axe coming at her and quickly dodged.

Ryoma stayed beside Miss Ryoma, touching the hilt of his sword, two drops of cold sweat trickling down his back.

Although I was somewhat prepared to face a formidable opponent, this was just too much—

Zuo Cun was thrown into a tree, where he managed to grab a thick branch to dissipate the force.

Feeling a wave of discomfort from the recent shock, Zuo Cun stood on a tree trunk, looking at the mother bear.

"Wow...that's really strong." Zuo Cun stood up and jumped off the tree branch.

"But that's exactly how it is—that's what makes it somewhat interesting!"

"Awooo—" The mother bear swung her double axes, chasing after Okita, when she suddenly felt a chill down her spine and quickly placed the axes on her back.

Ping Pong —

The crane's wings from Zuocun struck the axe.

Then he was instantly thrown away by the mother bear.

“Miss Arlong…it’s about to start. Ryoma, you need to step back. You can’t participate in this battle.” Miss Arlong put Ryoma aside and watched the bear mother wreaking havoc.

"Hmm." Ryoma was quite self-aware.

"Miss Ah Long." He patted Miss Ah Long on the shoulder and gave her a thumbs up. "Keep it up."

"besides--"

"Let's go back to how we were before."

Chapter 313 Both Sides Suffer Losses

The mother bear kicked Okita away and was about to swing her axe when she sensed a dangerous presence beside her.

"Roar----"

Miss Ah Long has returned to her true form.

The jet-black Kunitsu Serpent was a jiao that had not yet transformed into a dragon.

Even though the Age of Gods has long passed, the Great Serpent still exudes a terrifying aura.

"Roar--"

The mother bear, not to be outdone, also transformed back into her original form.

Like a small mountain, its brownish-black body rivals the imposing presence of Mount Kurokawa itself.

The two giant beasts faced off. Zuocun squatted on a tree, panting heavily. Miss Okita was also slightly injured, but she managed to get up and look at the scene before her.

A battle between wild beasts is about to erupt.

......

In the distance from Mount Kurokawa lies Norikawa Castle.

The young man's door was suddenly pounded on.

"Patriarch, Patriarch, there's news!"

The man sat up in bed, put on his glasses, got out of bed, and called out to the door, "Come in."

The moonlight shone on the man.

His hair was an unusual color, a rare wine red.

"Master, the magical device set up on Kurokawayama's side has given feedback. It seems... they are engaged in battle, and it feels like the two sides are evenly matched!"

The young man turned his head: "...Is that so?"

"I originally planned to set off during the day to completely resolve this problem, but now it seems that since other friends are willing to help..."

"Zhuang San, prepare the carriage for me." The young man began to dress and said to his retainer, "It's not midnight yet. We can get to Kurokawa Mountain before dawn."

"Yes, I understand... Head of the Matou Sawa family!"

......

Miss Ah Long punched Mama Bear in the face.

Mama Bear grabbed Miss Alon's neck with both hands, trying to retaliate, but Miss Alon bit her shoulder blade, letting out a painful roar.

Seizing the opportunity, Sakura swung his talons at the bear mother's legs, while Okita also prepared himself to join the battle.

The mother bear grabbed Miss Aron's horns with her paws, forcibly pulling Miss Aron off her shoulder blades, and forcibly grabbed Miss Aron's mouth, then—

A hook punch landed on Miss Ah Long's chin, and Miss Ah Long let out a roar.

puff-

The winged bird pierced the mother bear's ankle without any resistance.

"Roar--"

As the bear's paw slammed down, Zuo Cun hurriedly dodged.

Miss Aron's claws lashed out at Mama Bear. Mama Bear blocked one of the claws, turned around, and rammed her shoulder into Miss Aron.

Miss Ah Long wrapped her body around the mother bear and opened her mouth wide, trying to bite her.

"Ow!"

Mama Bear punched Miss Ah Long in the side of her face.

Miss Ah Long bit off course; she intended to bite the mother bear's neck, but instead bit her upper arm.
