"What...what did you say?" Yu Shui was clearly flustered and no longer calm: "Don't slander me out of thin air!"

But Kanon continued her reasoning, getting deeper and deeper: "Hmm, you clearly consider yourself a samurai, yet you have a vicious personality and are bloodthirsty. That's a contradiction. You're probably venting your impotent rage because you can't kill Shishio and can't just die! Although I've never met Shishio in person, judging from other people's descriptions and his plan to burn down Kyoto, he's a meticulous guy. There's no reason he wouldn't see through your true intentions. Maybe he's just using you?"

"Shut up!" Yu Shui went completely berserk. For years, he had been deceiving himself, sometimes forgetting these thoughts in the thrill of killing and the busyness of the "Ten Blades" operation. But tonight, in just a few words, his deepest secrets and fears were brought to light by Hanon: "Demon, are you a demon? Who exactly are you?"

"Uh, just a... kind passerby?" Hanon thought for a moment and chose a relatively ordinary one from the available identities such as "restaurant waiter", "commoner oppressed by Shishio", "passing transmigrator", and "lost traveler".

This time she used her own voice.

"A woman!" Yu Shui exclaimed in shock. He had never seen such a terrifying woman before!

Seeing Yu Shui's disdain, Hua Yin rolled her eyes: "So what if she's a woman? As the great man said, women hold up half the sky."

"No...nothing..." Yu Shui suddenly charged forward, unleashing the fastest speed he had ever used, his rattan shield leading the way, followed by wooden spikes, as he lunged towards Hua Yin's location: "It's just that you've been exposed!"

In the short time that followed, Hanon's actual confrontation with Yushui was only the blow of the broken iron ball. Therefore, in Yushui's eyes, although Hanon was terrifying, she was just a strange person with the ability of "illusionary sound". Now that she had revealed her true location in her words, as long as he launched a lightning-fast attack, he would definitely be able to kill her!

Alas, it was all just wishful thinking.

"Boundless Transformation" was truly activated for the first time tonight, and Huayin appeared behind Yushui in an instant.

"Ah, ahhh..." Realizing what had happened, Yu Shui finally realized how big a mistake she had made. This opponent was not a clown with a single trick, but a being with unimaginable depth.

"Sigh, you're quite something." Hana couldn't help but recall her acquaintance from Africa, Brother Fuli: "I know someone who has hearing that's on par with yours. When I first mastered this 'illusionary sound' technique, he was the one I most wanted to test my skills against. But he's better than you in that he not only has sharp hearing, but also an exceptional sense of smell, and he can even restore his eyesight with high technology... Um, please don't ask what 'high technology' is. You wouldn't understand even if I told you, and even if you did, you couldn't use it... Actually, if you had such an excellent sense of smell, it wouldn't be so easy for me to beat you."

Sigh, because Yu Shui's sins were so grave, being taken to the police station would almost certainly mean the death penalty, so Hanon didn't bother saying anything like "please work on your sense of smell in the future."

But it was also because of her honesty that Yu Shuiyi developed a good impression of her: "Phew, you really are a gentle person. Just looking at your movements, even if I have a powerful sense of smell comparable to 'Mind's Eye,' I'm afraid I'm no match for you..."

These were Yu Shui's last words before he was knocked unconscious.

Author's Note: See you in a bit.

Section 889, Chapter 880: Terrorist or Philanthropist?

With a casual chop to the neck, Yu Shui was knocked down, and Hua Yin went to undo his belt.

Hey, don't overthink it. Hanon just used a belt to tie up Umizu so she could hand him over to the police.

She has always been a good citizen.

The night is still long, and Shishio may be hiding in Kyoto. Kanon still has to hunt down more enemies.

Moreover, the tree may wish to remain still, but the wind will not cease; there are also enemies secretly preparing to hunt down Hanayone.

Just as Huayin tied Yushui up by the back and secured her tightly, a gust of wind suddenly rushed towards the back of her head—it was a short sword thrusting straight at her!

However, with such a fierce wind and such an obvious attack, no matter what, it wouldn't be able to hurt Kanon.

Hua Yin slightly turned her head to avoid the sharp blade, but then felt a flash of cold light above her head as another short sword pierced towards her crown from directly above.

"Oh ho, dual-wielding style~" Hanon smiled slightly: "I can go toe-to-toe with Miyamoto Musashi's dual-wielding style."

While joking, Hana first leaped backward, catching the attacker off guard, then activated "Unpredictable Transformation" to bounce back a step, launching a counterattack and throwing a punch at the man—only to miss.

To Hanayone's slightly stunned gaze, there was no one wielding twin short swords at that spot, but instead, a burning explosive was thrown down from mid-air, "Boom!"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Although it was homemade explosive from the 19th century, it was quite powerful. The black powder produced a lot of smoke. Amidst the smoke, Huayin rushed out, protecting the unconscious Yushui. Because she didn't want Yushui to die in front of her, Huayin even shielded him from the impact of shrapnel, which injured her own arm.

"Hmph, you're so kind," the man sneered.

"Hey, shouldn't the problem be that you're too cruel?" Kanon protested, "Yu Shui is your comrade, yet you dropped the bomb without hesitation."

She was looking up at the man as he soared through the air—no wonder Kanon couldn't find him at first. He was extremely thin, as if his skeleton was directly covering his skin. He also had huge wings spread out on his back, using the wind pressure generated by the explosion of gunpowder to launch himself into the sky to launch an attack, which was quite novel.

"Hmph, Yu Shui has always looked down on me because of his superior martial arts skills. Now he's been beaten down so badly. He deserves to be blown up." The thin man glided in the air once: "I am 'Flying' Bat, one of the 'Ten Blades'. I'll come and see what you've got to defeat Yu Shui."

After saying that, Bat let go and threw down a few more explosives. Hanon had no choice but to kick away the unconscious Yu Shui and rush in the opposite direction to avoid the impact of the explosion. As soon as she stopped, Bat swooped down from the air, thrusting the short sword bound to his hands—which Hanon easily dodged again.

"That's all there is to it," Hana said. "It's impressive that someone in this era knows how to use a hang glider and fight with it, but that's about it. Your hand-to-hand combat skills are too weak; you can't beat me."

Bat was furious: "You bastard, do you underestimate me like Yu Shui and the others? My aerial explosion is flawless. No matter how strong your martial arts are, there is no blind spot above your head. Even if my swordsmanship is not high, I can only attack you and you can't attack me. Isn't this invincible fighting method the best in the world?"

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several more explosives were thrown, creating a series of loud explosions that drew everyone's attention: "What's going on over there? Could it be that Zhizhixiong's henchmen are up to something again?"

Bat dropped his bomb and circled in the air again: "How about that? This brat's going to get blown up now!"

Even if Hanon is alright, it doesn't matter, Bat is always ready to strike from high above, repeating this attack pattern.

however……

When the smoke cleared, the ground was empty. Apart from Yu Shui, who was still unconscious not far away, there was no sign of Hua Yin.

"Huh? A person...a person is here!" Bat's reaction was quick; he instinctively performed a tactical roll in the air. His combat instincts saved him. Just as he rolled, Hanon's arm passed right by him, missing its target.

"That was close!" Bat breathed a sigh of relief. "She used the surrounding walls to jump up; what incredible leg strength! But I'm still more agile."

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. Seeing that Huayin was already falling, Bat also swung his hands and thrust his short sword forward: "Although you are a master, it's a pity that you are too arrogant. Ordinary people cannot move nimbly in the air, so you have become my live target!"

The short sword approached Hanon inch by inch at incredible speed, about to pierce her... Just then, an exceptionally piercing loud noise suddenly emanated from Hanon: "Buzz—"

The sound was like a sword, much faster than Bat's short sword. Before he could even hit Huayin, the loud noise had already entered his eardrums and reached his brain, making Bat dizzy.

Bat lost consciousness for a short time, maybe only half a second. If he were on the ground, it wouldn't be a big deal, but since he was in the air, that short time was enough for him to completely lose control of the hang glider.

"What's wrong with me... What was that sound..." Bat regained consciousness: "Huh? No! This feeling... Ah!"

The last thing he saw was the roof tiles of a nearby house. Without thinking, he crashed into them—no, crashed "down"—his thin body smashing right through the roof. There was a clattering of pots and pans inside; he probably fell into someone's kitchen.

"Duang!" After a moment, Bat also struggled to push open the door and staggered out. His mind was in a mess, and he didn't even notice Huayin at the door.

"Pia~" Just like Yu Shui, a single chop to the neck ended the battle. In a short time, Hanon made Bat lose consciousness for the third time... Hopefully, his head is strong enough that it won't leave any lasting damage to his brain.

She casually unbuckled Bat's belt and tied him up. Kanon clapped her hands, feeling it would be perfect for her to yell, "Who else?"

But she didn't need to yell; the next target had already appeared—obvious, very obvious, an unavoidable target.

A colossal giant, estimated to be nearly four meters tall, walked through the streets in the dead of night, wearing what appeared to be armor belonging to the Skeleton King. He was taller than the houses of ordinary people in Kyoto during this era, and was practically the brightest star in the night sky!

The giant also holds a bald old man in his hands, with two long and strange beards and a huge bald head. The combination looks awkward, yet it is impossible to ignore.

Hanon was a little amused and exasperated: "After the blind man and the flying bamboo pole, are we going to see the giant and the slippery ghost? Is this Shishio a terrorist or a philanthropist? But these two guys are just like Hua Wen and Hua Wu in 'Flirting Scholar'—they have extraordinary talents. Since we've met, we should at least have a go at them."

Leaping onto the roof, Hanon ran like a parkourer towards the giant.

Author's Note: It took a while, but it's finished. See you tomorrow.

Section 890, Chapter 881: Still saying you're not doing charity?

That night, Shishio's forces suffered a crushing defeat and were in full retreat. The giant and the "Nurarihyon" he held in his palm were also in the same situation. The big-headed old man was complaining, "Hey, hey, Fuji, slow down. Although we are retreating, we are already in a safe zone. I think even if those government henchmen catch up, they won't dare to attack you."

The giant, dressed in iron armor like a skeleton king, was surprisingly obedient, slowing down quite docilely to make the old man more comfortable.

Before the old man could even settle down, a figure suddenly flashed out from the side like a bullet, hurtling towards the giant—it was Hanon!

Having used "Unpredictable Transformation" all the way here, Hanon had already gathered enough momentum. Without saying a word, she jumped up and kicked... uh, at the giant's knee.

Hey, don't laugh. That giant was nearly four meters tall, and his knees were already at the height of an average person's head! To conceal herself and launch a surprise attack, Hanon avoided the rooftops and instead charged out from the alleyways. Even with her incredible jumping ability, her kicks could only reach this far… and the knee is a vital point, making it even more lethal against such a tall and strong opponent. Hanon's plan was spot on!

Aside from the fact that she hadn't expected that she would encounter not only the giant and the old man as enemies here...

Kanon's flying kick was about to hit, but suddenly a white, fat blob flashed across the other side of the giant—a rather obese fellow whose appearance clearly indicated he was mentally challenged—and blocked between Kanon and the giant's knees, using his belly to absorb Kanon's attack!

The fat boy, though struck by Huayin, was unharmed. His belly, soft and bouncy like rubber, bulged up with a "gurgle," sending Huayin flying.

"What the hell?" Fatty's rebound was powerful, but not enough to harm Hana. Hana flipped in mid-air and landed lightly on the ground. Her exclamation came after landing: "So you had companions..."

The giant was so conspicuous that his companions at his feet were naturally overlooked. One was the fat boy who blocked Kanon's attack, and the other was a rather beautiful girl. Incongruous with her appearance, she carried a large scythe with an iron chain on her shoulder.

“Giants, obese people, women, slippery ghosts… and that blind man and skinny guy from earlier, I’m increasingly suspecting that Shishio’s gang is actually a charity. Or maybe he’s a hundred years ahead of his time, and he’s very politically correct when recruiting his subordinates.” Hanon rolled her eyes, but didn’t stop walking, blocking the four people’s path: “But none of you are leaving tonight.”

"Who...who is it?" Startled by Kanon's sudden attack, the giant took two steps back, his hand tightening. The old man sitting in his hand not only lost his balance and tumbled several times, but was also almost crushed to death by the giant's instinctive fist. Fortunately, the giant realized what was happening in time and escaped a disaster. He was actually the one who was most injured in this attack.

The old man with the big head was furious: "Bastard, bastard, bastard! Who dares to attack me, Master Cai Chui... Oh, it's a little girl!"

After seeing Hanon's face clearly, the old man named "Taichi" laughed again: "Heh, as expected, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. I was wondering which blind lackey would dare to attack us. Only a brat like this would be so ignorant of his own mortality." He stroked his beard and ordered the giant: "Fuji, kill her for me."

“Old Master Cai Chui, you may be mistaken.” Before Hua Yin could retort with a few trash words, the woman from the “Ten Blades” wielding a scythe spoke first: “This young girl is not reckless. From her movements of advancing and retreating, it is clear that she is an extremely skilled expert. It may take a long time to deal with her… Yi Wan Fang, what do you say?”

Yiwanfang was the fat guy who blocked Huayin's kick, but this guy really seemed to be a mentally challenged child, blinking his two beady eyes blankly and only making "coo coo" sounds, like a fat pigeon that had come to life.

"Forget it, I can't count on you after all." The woman shook her head, probably knowing that her companion was extremely unreliable: "Anyway, we need to take this challenge seriously."

"It seems that among the 'Espada,' only you are a normal person." After listening to the four people opposite her perform a group comedy routine, Kanon had a general idea of ​​them. She stepped forward and said, "So, do you want to fight me? I suggest you don't do that. It would be better for you to honestly turn yourself in."

"Huh, 'Miss'?" The woman blinked and then reached out to lift her short skirt: "That's a huge misunderstanding."

"Gah—" Hana saw something that shouldn't exist between the woman's legs. She was very familiar with this thing, but it was from her previous life. Well, if you count all the time travels, it should be the time before that.

But it really does grow between a woman's legs: "I am the 'Ten-Edged' swordsman Honjo Kamatari, a 'little brother' not a 'little sister'~"

Kanon, who had just taken a step forward, was shocked and took two steps back. She now completely understood: "Wow, Shishio's side is really the originator of political correctness... What organization am I fighting against?"

"Huh? You seem a bit confused." Kamatari stared at Hanon: "Do you want to continue fighting?"

"Bah, of course I will!" Hua Yin steadied herself and pointed a finger: "Even if all four of you come at me together, what do I, Ye, have to fear!"

"Ye?" The old man with the hammer on the giant's hands narrowed his eyes: "That seems to be a surname of a Ming Dynasty person. It seems you are not a military or police officer of the Meiji Restoration Government. What business is it of a foreigner to come to Kyoto?" Obviously, there are also members in the "Ten Blades" who are not good at fighting. This old man with the hammer is a strategist who specializes in tactics. He was included in the "Ten Blades" only because he can command the giant Fuji. The two of them share the title of "Po Jun".

But there was no time for him to analyze the situation, and Hua Yin's origins were something he couldn't figure out no matter how hard he tried. In a flash, he activated "Boundless Illusionary Transformation" and Hua Yin rushed over: "People of the world should mind their own business, so what if they are foreigners? You disregard human life and carry out terrorist attacks, endangering innocent civilians, so of course you deserve to be hit, and besides, the Ming Dynasty is long gone!"

"Her attack is even faster." Faced with Hanon's attack, the four members of "Ten Blades" took it very seriously. These people did not have Yu Shui's arrogance, and they still had some camaraderie among them. Yi Wanfang's fat body sprang up and blocked Hanon's path again. On the other side, the giant Fuji retreated, making room for his comrades to fight, and also placed the old man Sai Tsutsumi in a safe area on a nearby rooftop.

"Hey, this big belly isn't always effective!" Hua Yin had already tried Yi Wan Fang's bouncy cotton belly, and seeing him obstruct her, she immediately changed her fist into fingers, and used her "finger razor" to cut down—

"Splash!" Yiwanfang's belly was cut open, and its contents spilled out in a scattering sound.

But it wasn't a gruesome scene of internal organs and blood spilling everywhere; instead, it was a pile of cotton, cloth, and metal parts.
