Upon hearing Gao Lian's words, Zhang Zheng first looked puzzled, then surprised: "Could it be... that knife?!"
"The demon sword Hirumaru?"
"That's right, it's that demon sword. According to the records, the area there is not far from the hole that pierced the sky back then."
Gao Lian leaned back in his boss's chair, his expression a mix of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret or wistfulness).
"I never would have guessed. Decades later, it turns out that the demon sword Hirumaru, which was said to have disappeared back then, and the demon who wielded the demon sword, actually died in a cave."
"That's so dramatic."
When Gao Lian said this.
However, he didn't notice that Zhang Zheng's expression was a little off.
"I'll go and get more people right now."
"Well, let's go."
Zhang Zheng left the office and stood in the corridor, his eyes slightly narrowed.
"The demon sword has appeared..."
...
On the other side, at the headquarters of NaDuTong.
Zhao Fangxu suddenly received a call from Gao Lian. He was shocked to learn that the demon sword Hirumaru, which had once caused a stir in the world of supernatural beings, had reappeared.
"Are you sure, Lao Gao?"
"Mr. Zhao, I have sent you the detailed information and on-site records. They have been compared with the records from that year and confirmed to be correct."
Gao Lian's voice came through the phone.
Zhao Fangxu's expression turned slightly serious: "Alright, I'll have the Fish and Dragon Association confirm it. I'll leave the rest to you."
"Yes, Mr. Zhao."
Hang up the phone.
Zhao Fangxu turned on his computer and saw the email sent by Gao Lian.
The above are photos and records taken by Gao Lian and his team in a cave deep in the mountains of Jilin.
Zhao Fangxu selected one of the photos and sent it to Ishikawa Shin, the president of the Fish and Dragon Association.
After it was sent out.
Zhao Fangxu leaned back in his chair and sighed softly, "One wave subsides only for another to rise. This time, the reappearance of the demonic blade will surely cause some kind of turmoil."
"However... things are different now than they were back then."
"Even if something really happens, hmph."
Zhao Fangxu chuckled.
Even if something really goes wrong, he still has an ace up his sleeve, a winning card that will be absolutely foolproof once played.
......
After Zhao Fangxu sent the email.
Neon lights, a melting pot of fish and dragons.
Inside a dojo, Ishikawa Shin, dressed in an Ishikawa-ryu dojo uniform, held a bamboo sword and stared sharply at Ishikawa Ken across from him.
Kenichi Ishikawa, on the other hand, had a solemn expression and held his breath.
Beside them, Aiko Yagyu and Ringo watched the two nervously.
"Drink!"
Suddenly, Ishikawa Ken let out a low shout, stepped forward, and his bamboo sword flashed through the air with an incredibly straight sword light as it slashed towards Ishikawa Shin.
Ishikawa Shin raised his sword to deflect the attack, then thrust it straight at Ishikawa Ken's heart.
However, as Ishikawa Ken was separated, he turned around to avoid the sword tip and slashed at Ishikawa Shin with a kesa slash.
Snapped!
A crisp sound rang out.
However, Ishikawa Shin managed to block Ishikawa Ken's attack in time, but even though he blocked it, his bamboo sword was still cut in half, and the blade fell onto Ishikawa Shin's shoulder.
"Indeed, Ken, you are now the undisputed strongest swordsman of the Ishikawa school."
Although Ishikawa Shin lost a move, he showed no anger on his face. Instead, he looked at his son with satisfaction.
As the head of the Ishikawa school, he very much hoped that his son would surpass him.
Especially to fulfill the last wish of the Ishikawa school's founder.
Ishikawa Shin hoped his son would be even stronger than him.
“Father, you have been too busy with official duties, so you have neglected your training. Otherwise, you would have been able to block that slash just now.”
Ishikawa Ken put down his bamboo sword and said.
Ishikawa Shin raised his hand: "No need to be modest. Your current strength is stronger than mine. Although my training is not as good as before, I can ensure that my skills have not declined. You have already surpassed me."
In response, Ken Ishikawa no longer feigned modesty.
His expression held a hint of joy, but he quickly calmed down and regained his composure.
"But there is still a world of difference between them and that person."
“Firm…”
Upon hearing Ishikawa Ken's words...
Yagyu Aiko, standing to the side, looked worried, while Ringo seemed somewhat at a loss.
Ishikawa Shin fell silent.
He knew exactly what his son was saying, but... even he didn't have a good way to comfort or persuade him.
All I could do was pat my son on the shoulder.
“People are different from one another. Jian, regardless of whether that mysterious person is the God of War of the Dragon Kingdom or not, he has surpassed all the extraordinary people in this world, and may even have reached the level of a god!”
"We mortals have no need to compare ourselves with gods."
"Victory is achieved by surpassing oneself and making continuous progress!"
Ishikawa Shin comforted him.
Upon hearing this, Ishikawa Ken nodded slightly, his eyes firm and bright: "Don't worry, Father, I haven't been discouraged. After all, no one in the world can compare to that person."
"But I also hope that one day we can refine our Ishikawa-ryu swordsmanship to the point where we can slice through a ship with a single strike!"
Ken Ishikawa's voice was strong and clear, and his eyes were filled with longing and admiration.
This is what he saw that day: a giant golden Buddha hand, like a god, lifting up an aircraft carrier.
And cause it to break from the middle.
Such terrifying power and strength makes Ken Ishikawa feel excited every night when he dreams about it, wishing he could have such power himself.
This also gave rise to the desire to develop the Ishikawa-ryu swordsmanship to the same level.
Seeing this, Ishikawa Shin didn't say anything.
Having ideals is a good thing, even if that power is out of reach or even impossible to achieve.
But having a goal to strive for is a good thing.
Just then.
Ishikawa Shin's cell phone suddenly rang.
Upon hearing this, Ishikawa Shin immediately went to the clothes and took out his phone.
This is a ringtone he specially set, which he usually only rings when someone important sends him a message.
He picked up his phone and opened the emails.
Upon seeing the above content, his facial expression immediately changed.
He looked up at Ishikawa Ken, Yagyu Aiko, Ringo, and the others.
"Pack your things, we're going to the Dragon Kingdom!"
......
Chapter 656 The Martial God Hall and the Tang Clan Reach an Agreement
The message was received by Ishikawa Shin.
And they immediately prepared to go to the Dragon Kingdom.
Zhao Fangxu also received a reply from Ishikawa Shin, who confirmed that the demon sword was indeed Hirumaru, the demon sword of Higanbana Shinobu from back then.
In response, Ishikawa Shin made a request to Zhao Fangxu.
They hope to be the ones to handle this demonic sword and fulfill the wish of their ancestors.
Zhao Fangxu did not immediately agree to this.
Because the Ishikawa school of supernatural beings is not the only one associated with this demonic sword. In the Dragon Kingdom, countless supernatural beings have lost their lives because of this demonic sword.
This also includes two major forces.
One is the Tang Clan, and the other is the Lü Family.
Therefore, Zhao Fangxu told Ishikawa Shin that how to deal with this demon sword should be discussed by the three families together.
Ishikawa Shin naturally had no objection, nor did he dare to.
After all, it was indeed somewhat embarrassing to talk about when the Demon Blade appeared in the Dragon Kingdom.
Ishikawa Shin couldn't force anything.
Therefore, Ishikawa Shin repeatedly requested that a decision be made after he arrived.
After the two finished their call...
