Furthermore, they could use the excuse of forgetting the search warrant in the car to take the opportunity to send Inspector Kurokawa and Inspector Fujii away.

Even if Heihachi has realized something is wrong, it doesn't matter.

When Isshiki Heihachi asked where the search warrant was, and he reached for the Goshuincho (a type of imperial seal) on his chest, the outcome was already decided.

In the inner pocket of the trench coat, Morikawa Yu used her finger to open the amulet.

The blazing golden light transformed into ripples that spread outwards, enveloping everything around them.

When everything in sight was bathed in gold, and only he and Heihachi Isshiki remained in the same spot, Morikawa Yu finally revealed a slight smile.

He looked at Isshiki Heihachi's somewhat astonished face, and without any hesitation, took out Tsurumaru from the Goshuincho, drew his sword, and stepped forward to slash.

The moment Isshiki Heihachi noticed Morikawa Yu's movement, he suddenly retreated, trying to dodge the blade of Tsurumaru in Morikawa Yu's hand.

His movements were quick, but Morikawa Yu's knife was quick too.

Isshiki Heihachi's body was simply unable to keep up with his reaction speed. Morikawa Yu's chest was ripped open in a single move, overflowing with black mist.

Having landed a successful blow, Morikawa Yu didn't hesitate and continued to advance and slash.

After summarizing, he discovered that the skills in his system were less like game skills and more like the stylized forms of sword techniques and movement skills, as well as the enhancement of wind power.

This enhancement is a combination of sword and wind power, a move and technique fused into the heart, which continuously grows stronger as his level increases and his physical attributes improve.

As long as he doesn't become exhausted from the attack, he can recover quickly and use the skill again.

This is probably why Ryaso in LoL doesn't have a mana bar, only a cooldown reduction bar, and the cooldown reduction was added for game balance.

After all, in reality, as long as a person still has the physical strength, they can continue to wield a sword.

As for the Forward Slash, it is a movement technique in the Wind Control Sword Art, and it does not have the restriction of requiring a target to be released in the game.

Simply by stepping and riding the wind, one can quickly cover distances, which is extremely convenient.

Morikawa Yu stepped forward and slashed, rushing towards Isshiki Heihachi.

But after slicing through Isshiki Heihachi's chest once more, he didn't stop. Instead, he flashed behind Isshiki Heihachi.

Taking advantage of the moment when Heihachi couldn't react, he thrust Tsurumaru into the back of his opponent, twisted the hilt, and wrenched it forcefully.

After being repeatedly struck in vital areas by Morikawa Yu, Isshiki Heihachi froze, his body twitching and then becoming completely still.

Ordinary damage is completely useless against such powerful monsters.

Even if they suffer fatal wounds such as having their hearts and heads pierced, they are only restricted in their movements and it is difficult for them to kill their opponents.

Therefore, Morikawa Yu's attacks were unrestrained, completely trying to destroy his opponent.

Seeing that the attack had been successful, Morikawa Yu did not relax at all.

Although he has been suppressing Isshiki Heihachi so far, he doesn't think that's the extent of Isshiki Heihachi's strength.

Because he could see that the outlines of the masks on Isshiki Heihachi's body were not damaged at all; on the contrary, the black aura had become even denser.

He gripped Tsurumaru with his left hand, freeing his right to take out Mikazuki and send it toward the back of Isshiki Heihachi's head, piercing straight through his forehead, causing blood to splatter.

Isshiki Heihachi's body twitched again, and the facial features on his body all changed simultaneously.

The other person's body was like a tattered sack, with thick black mist leaking from the wounds on their chest and back of their head, which quickly spread to the surrounding area.

Almost instantly, black mist filled Morikawa Yu's eyes, blocking his vision.

He could hear the sound of buildings collapsing, and all around him was dust.

Suddenly, a massive, menacing claw pierced through the thick fog, slamming down towards him with unparalleled force.

Chapter 114 The Truth

Morikawa Yu took two steps back and kicked Isshiki Heihachi's tattered body aside.

He pulled back Tsurumaru and Mikazuki, crossed them in front of him, and barely managed to block the giant claw, though it was quite difficult.

Before he could forcefully push away the giant claw, another giant claw appeared beside him and slammed down on him just as hard.

With no room to parry, Morikawa Yu instantly activated Swift Step, ignoring the collision volume, and charged forward.

He bypassed the owner of the giant claw within the black mist, his body becoming invisible, before reappearing a moment later.

Without a moment's slackening, Morikawa Yu unleashed his sword intent, sensing the surrounding environment, and finally "saw" the enemy who was fighting him.

It was a Prajna whose body was as black as ink, whose eyes were as red as blood, and whose height was as tall as a three- or four-story building. It was even larger than the Red Prajna that he had killed before.

He was just standing in the living room of the Isshiki Heihachi family, but now the entire living room, and even the building and villa, have been collapsed and turned into ruins.

If he hadn't pulled Isshiki Heihachi into the forbidden zone, the Isshiki family villa in the real world would probably have suffered the same fate.

Inspector Kurokawa and Fujii Itsuki will die in the collapsed ruins the moment the battle begins.

"It's truly a pity, Mr. Morikawa."

"I thought I could play along with you for a while, but I didn't expect you to be so eager to get the 'audience' off the stage and to take action so quickly."

As the smoke and black mist in the ruins gradually dissipated, Heihachi Isshiki's figure reappeared.

He stood in the middle of the ruins, his wounds mostly healed.

Morikawa Yu frowned deeply as she looked at him.

Heihachi Isshiki recovered from his injuries, but he no longer looked like a human. Instead, he had become a swollen tumor about the size of a human, with eight masks connected by blood vessels and mist on it.

Seven of the masks are exactly the same as Isshiki Nanami's mask, but unlike Isshiki Nanami's mask phantoms, they are solid masks.

The eighth mask on the sarcoma's body is the face of Isshiki Heihachi.

It looked at Morikawa Yu, its lips slightly moving, its expression mocking.

“Mr. Morikawa, you could have lived a little longer, but you gave up that opportunity yourself.”

Morikawa Yu narrowed his eyes, ignoring its provocation.

The aura of Isshiki Heihachi in front of him was much stronger than that of Isshiki Nanami, and he gave him a very dangerous feeling.

He remembered that Ryoko had said that above ordinary great yokai like Isshiki Nanami, and below the great yokai of the Age of Gods, there were even greater great yokai.

This guy who's pretending to be Isshiki Heihachi is probably at that level.

He may not be able to beat his opponent, and so far he hasn't caused any real harm to them.

The black Hannya behind the opponent was also far stronger than the red Hannya of the Seven Realms of One Color.

Isshiki Nanami is like a degraded version of Isshiki Heihachi, which made Morikawa Yu even more certain of the relationship between the two.

I just don't know when this guy started targeting me.

While keeping an eye on Isshiki Heihachi, he used his mind to communicate with the Goshuin accountant, preparing to buy time and call Ryoko over for help.

Since Ryoko said he was no match for a high-ranking demon, he wouldn't recklessly try to be brave.

However, Isshiki Heihachi didn't seem to intend to give him any more time, and drove the tall and terrifying black Hannya behind him toward Morikawa Yu.

Morikawa Yu gripped Tsurumaru and Mikazuki tightly in his left and right hands respectively.

He stepped past the black Hannya, looked at Isshiki Heihachi's ugly and bizarre appearance, and clicked his tongue in amazement.

"This is your true form? Isshiki Nanami merely your puppet?"

"Did you deliberately put her out in the open to lure me here to find you?"

"No wonder she offered herself up so easily..."

As Morikawa Yu spoke, he seemed to sigh with emotion.

Heihachi Isshiki did not answer his question, his expression somewhat mocking, and the other masks connected to his body by blood vessels also grinned.

"Mr. Morikawa, do you think I'm the kind of person who would lay out all my plans and goals?"

As he spoke, his smile became even more sarcastic.

Morikawa Yu remained unmoved, simply shaking her head: "What, are you afraid I'll discover your scheme and ruin things?"

"You really think I can't figure out what you're doing?"

He smiled and said, "Actually, I guessed it all."

"Mr. Isshiki, your tricks are really terrible."

Heihachi's expression visibly darkened: "What did you guess?"

The other seven masks on his body were also staring intently at Morikawa Yu, and the black-clad Hannya also stopped in his tracks.

Morikawa Yu, holding Tsurumaru and Mikazuki in both hands, walked towards Isshiki Heihachi and shook his head.

"It's actually quite easy to guess, Mr. Isshiki."

"From the very beginning, I suspected that someone was manipulating Nanami Isshiki behind this."

“The night before last, I destroyed her first mask, and not long after, I destroyed her second mask.”

"At the time, I thought she was doing these things on a planned basis. The reason she kept turning people into masked demons was to divert attention and cover up her own actions."

"But the surveillance cameras at the time captured her face and movements, which led to her being exposed."

"That feels really strange."

"Even the most stupid monster wouldn't be so stupid as to not know how to avoid surveillance cameras or cover its face under them, right?"

"What's even stranger is that I ran into the other person near my home the very next day, and the other person happened to be suppressing their thoughts by their original consciousness."

“At the time, I just thought she had simply crashed, but when Aunt Ryoko and I interrogated her, she said that she was the ancestral spirit of the Isshiki family, but the Isshiki family does not have an ancestral spirit.”

"That's even stranger."

"How dare such a careless monster, with such a jumbled memory and such an ignorant nature, cause trouble everywhere with such impunity?"

"Unless someone deliberately sent her out and erased her memory to attract attention and muddy the waters."

“Ms. Yamano Nanami’s statement that she was being chased when she woke up also proves this point.”

"As for the fact that the surveillance cameras couldn't capture the person chasing her, that only means that the person chasing her wasn't human."

"Although Nanami Isshiki is asleep, she still possesses demonic power, so it's not surprising that she can see demons. However, I didn't notice that at the time."

As Morikawa Yu spoke, she stopped and sighed.

"Originally, I was only certain that there was a mastermind behind this, but I wasn't sure about your purpose."

"Now that I see what you look like, and these masks you're wearing, plus what Isshiki Nanami said about taking over Yamano Nanami's body, I roughly understand why you did this."

"You deliberately released Isshiki Nanami, then deliberately made her talk about the Isshiki family, and then denied her relationship with the Isshiki family, thus creating the impression that there are problems with the Isshiki family, in order to lure me here."

"Once I get here, you plan to take over my body just like Isshiki Nanami took over Yamano Nanami's body, right?"

He looked at Isshiki Heihachi, his tone certain, though his question was one.

Chapter 115 Talk is useless

Isshiki Heihachi's expression was no longer as composed as before; instead, it had become more serious.

He finally nodded: "Mr. Morikawa, I didn't expect that I still underestimated you."

"Your reasoning is good, and it's very close to the truth. I do indeed want to take over your body."

"As for the reason... the day before yesterday, I attended a meeting at Kasumigaseki and heard that the head priest of Asada Shrine, Yoshiko, has chosen a successor, and this successor is a swordsman who broke into the Metropolitan Police Department to commit murder because of the Uesugi family."

"You've been watching me since then?"

Morikawa Yu frowned, never expecting that the source of the problem was this.

“Yes!” Isshiki Heihachi nodded, his eyes fixed intently on Morikawa Yu, his mask revealing his greedy malice without any attempt to conceal it.

"This surprised me greatly."

"In this day and age, a swordsman has actually appeared, and this swordsman acts so impulsively..."

"So, I released one of my spare bodies and gave her a jumbled memory, making her believe that she was the ancestral spirit of the Isshiki family."

"You know what happened next, and now I've finally led you here."

"But I never expected that you, who are rumored to act impulsively and rely solely on your emotions, could actually give me such a pleasant surprise."

He spoke with a hint of regret.

"To be honest, I really thought you were going to forcibly search this place, and I was even prepared to arrest you and mock you properly after you found nothing."
