My mother's love song

Rhodes paused, then changed the subject and said, "I saw quite a few injured ghosts on the way here, what happened to them?

Could it be that he was injured in the battle with Jianfeiweishi or Onmyoji... No, I don't think that's the case.

Shuten, what exactly happened in Japan recently? What will happen next? "

"I'm sorry I have no comment to make."

Shuten-doji suppressed his smile and said, "This is an internal matter of the demon clan. It has nothing to do with the master."

Is this really a fight among the ghosts?

Rhode understood and said, "It's not irrelevant. If the situation in Oeyama is unstable, I won't be able to rest easy in Kyoto."

This situation is probably similar to the cooperation between some foreign governments and the underworld. Since it is impossible to completely wipe out the underworld forces, they will support those gangs that are at least more obedient.

According to Rhode's observation, Shuten Ibaraki's group was a conservative faction among the demons. The two of them would only occasionally go to the wealthy Kyoto to steal wine, food, and women.

Compared with those evil spirits that burn, kill, loot and eat people in rural villages, the harm they cause is obviously much less.

Regardless, it is an unchanging fact that Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji have never eaten humans.

Ibaraki Douji is a hybrid of human and demon, just like Tomoe Gozen, so he has some resistance to the idea of ​​eating humans.

Shuten-douji...had undoubtedly eaten humans in the past...when her name was not yet Shuten-douji.

However, Shuten now is no longer interested in eating people, she is just playing around.

In Shuten-doji's eyes, the whole of Japan is her big playground.

Be it robbery, bullying, or attacking Kyoto, they are all just a form of entertainment.

For Shuten-doji, everything in this world except himself is just a "toy"...

You really are... a female devil king who is thousands of times worse than Ibaraki Douji.

Shuten's seductive laughter could be heard in the palace.

"Hehe, Master, do you mean to form an alliance with me?"

"Alliance? What does alliance mean?" Ibaraki Douji blinked.

Rhode shook his head. "Sorry, not to that extent. I'm the only one who wants to establish a connection with you.

It would be fine if we were just having a drinking party together...but I don't intend to involve the people around me in this incident.

Do you think that I alone can be considered an alliance?"

"Haha... Master, you really know how to joke."

Shuten-doji looked at the boy's face and said softly, "Your power is comparable to that of an army, a country, no... maybe even greater than that of a country.

Even I am afraid, you alone are the largest and most powerful force on this Far Eastern Island."

Rhode said with satisfaction: "Humph...According to what you said, Shuten, are you willing to cooperate with me?"

"No." Shuten said coldly.

"Hey! Is it not possible?" Ibaraki said in surprise.

"Why?" Rhodes asked curiously, "Are you planning to send me to your enemy?"

Ibaraki said: "I am a demon with devilish blood flowing in my body, and I am regarded as the leader by these guys...

There's no way that he would nod happily like a puppy just because a human said, "Shuten, let's form an alliance," right?

Hehehehe...I also have my own standpoint, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to the little guys down there."

"You mean you want me to show my strength to you and your men."

Shuten-doji raised the corners of his eyes that were painted red, and said happily: "As expected of you, Master, you react very quickly..."

Nonsense... I have seen similar plot-driven battles in the main storyline of FGO at least ten times, Rhode thought.

Ibaraki Douji tilted his head and said, "Then... play with me, Master."

"Ohhhhh! We're finally going to fight! That's great!"

While the two were talking, Ibaraki Douji, who was drowsy, suddenly jumped up from the ground.

She is obviously a fool, but she has a keen sense of battle.

Ibaraki stood next to Shuten and glared at Rod fiercely.

“Genji! I will never lose to you this time! Wash your neck and prepare to be hung on the Rashomon Gate!”

Even though I can't beat that brat by myself, I can't lose if I'm with Shuten! The power of our bond is invincible!

Ibaraki Douji firmly believed this.

It seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable. Rhodes pulled his hands out of his sleeves and cracked his finger bones.

"Shuten-doji, I accept your terms. But I have a condition on my side as well."

"As expected of you, Master. Your desires are twice as strong as others. Do you have any other requests besides being an ally...

Just imagining the Master's unreasonable demands, I feel my body starting to get hot, hehe."

Shuten-doji smiled and said, "Please go ahead."

Rhodes said: "No, the alliance matter is over now."

"Oh?"

"Shuten, let Tiger Bear Boy and the others come along too.

If I beat all of you...from now on, I will be the king of Oeyama."

The words uttered by the young man left Shuten and Ibaraki Douji stunned.

"What are you talking about? Of course, that kind of thing is not allowed!"

Ibaraki Douji's shoulders were shaking and trembling violently.

It seems that she doesn't have such a firm belief in the invincible bond between herself and Shuten...

Rhodes continued, "Don't worry, I have no interest in managing the ghosts, so I won't get involved in the affairs here.

Even if I win, nothing will change here from now on.

But, Shuten-doji, you better be prepared...

I will let you experience the feelings of those people whom you have treated like toys and played with at will."

""

Gradually recovering from his dazed expression, Shuten-doji raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a beautiful yet ferocious smile.

"See, Ibaraki... the master only makes my body hot."

Chapter 696: The Ultimate Insult? Shuten Do, a Grand Serial!

Oeyama, inside the Tang-style Demon King's Castle.

If he loses, he will become Shuten-doji's toy from now on. If he wins, the female demon king will become his weapon. A heroic plot-driven battle with each other's human rights at stake is about to begin!

Our lineup is locked, with only the Saber brave Genji holding the iron sword.

The enemy's lineup is as follows:

【Berserker】Four Heavenly Kings·Bear Boy

【Berserker】Four Heavenly Kings: Tiger and Bear Boy

[Berserker] Four Heavenly Kings - Star Bear Boy

【Berserker】Four Heavenly Kings·Golden Bear Boy

【Berserker】Demon King Ibaraki Douji

【Berserker】Demon King Shuten-doji

What a balanced duel!

So, the battle begins.

Suddenly, an incredibly huge amount of demonic energy [magic power] burst out from Shuten-doji's petite body.

The earth is ringing.

What can be felt is the trembling coming from Mount Oe itself.

Not only Rhode, but even the giant demons under Shuten Douji and the Four Heavenly Kings Douji's foothold became unstable.

Rhode had experienced this set of Shuten before. As a descendant of the pinnacle of Japanese fantasy dragon [Snake God], the pressure emanating from her could easily crush the opponent's fighting spirit.

Of course, this little trick would never work on Rhodes.

But, it's a little different from before.

By the time you realize it, it's too late.

The moment he subconsciously made eye contact with Shuten-doji, Rhodes' breathing and body became heavy, and his thoughts became as chaotic as mud.

How is it possible...I, who has the highest level of popularity correction in Japan, would actually lose to Shuten-doji in terms of momentum?

At this moment, the relevant memories of Fgo flashed through Rhodes' mind.

It was not the pressure from the snake god that affected him, but the smell of alcohol.

As if intoxicated by the fragrance of fruit wine that sounds like his voice and breath, he has tasted all the fine wines in the world and tempered them in his own dragon body. Shuten-douji can make the target drunk just by staring at him.

Fortunately, Rhode himself possessed Ex-level [uncalculated] anti-magic power, so his thinking and fighting spirit were not affected.

But the body was still affected to some extent, and the legs became as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

At the same time, Ibaraki Douji, holding the huge bone knife, moved and kicked the ground with his slender feet.

With a loud "bang", the tatami under Ibaraki Douji's feet turned into a big pit, and her body jumped up and disappeared without a trace.

Rhode's eyes were dyed a colorful red, and the magic eyes of the Queen of the Moon were activated.

Ibaraki Douji would use the terrain to jump behind me and attack me from behind. Because she had been attacked from behind by Rod before, she was upset about it and gave up her favorite head-on attack.

The above, this future information flowed into Rhodes' brain.

Although nearly 100 million words may have passed since I obtained this pair of magic eyes, I would still like to take this opportunity to explain the ability of [Zhu Yue's Magic Eyes].

Simply put, it is omnipotent and can do everything.

The radiance of this pair of [Rainbow Demon Eyes] is a rainbow formed by the convergence of countless [Gem Demon Eyes].

Although it does not have an overwhelming single performance like the [Mystic Eyes of Death Perception], it is the strongest in terms of versatility, and is full of the kingly style of the Ultimate ONE.

Because if he activated these eyes, he would definitely be laughed at by the Moon Queen who had not had sex for a thousand years and whose personality had become extremely distorted, so Rhodes always tried to avoid using the magic eyes in battle.

While Rhodes continued to capture Ibaraki Douji with the peripheral vision of his demonic eye, he faced Shuten Douji who was attacking from the front with the Four Heavenly Kings of Oeyama.

The first to bear the brunt was the light-footed Shuten-douji. Facing the greatsword she swung at him, Rhodes drew his sword with one hand to fight her off.

The collision of the swords created a huge vortex of magical power, which blew away the four walls and furnishings of the Ghost Palace Banquet Hall like a tornado.

Also swept up into the sky were the little devils who were cheering for the boss.

"My Lord's power cannot be limited to this, right? Now, let me see more of it."

Shuten-doji smiled and swung his sword repeatedly.

"These are enough to deal with you."

Rhodes calmly took her swift and reckless attacks, and every time the two of them faced off with swords, a torrent of magic power would erupt.

Tiger Bear Boy and Star Bear Boy arrived shortly after. These two giant demons were over five meters tall, and their shadows alone covered the tiny bodies of Rhodes and Shuten Douji.

The huge iron rod came down at Rhodes with a strong wind. He dodged the attack with a light jump and stood on the iron rod, attacking and defending with Shuten-doji without stopping.

The tiger-bear boy, whose weapon was stepped on, tried to lift the iron rod in his hand again, but found that the iron rod that was usually easy to use had become extremely heavy.

There was only a 100-pound boy on top, but he couldn't lift the iron bar even one millimeter even with all his strength.

This feeling is like lifting a mountain.

At this moment, Rhodes raised his empty left hand and stabbed the tiger-bear boy in the chest with his swift hand knife.

This is exactly the secret of Rhodes' swordsmanship, [Anti-Demon Sword: Heavenly Evil Ghost].

The huge ghost weighing more than one ton flew backwards, knocked over seven or eight walls, and fell to the ground without moving.
