With a sizzle!
The moment Bai Ye’s sword slashed forward.
Great swathes of lightning bloomed.
Accompanied by the sword strike, the bursting current spread out like a vast net, enveloping all directions.
Then…
The belt began to shriek.
The bursting current, as sharp as a blade, swept across, easily slicing the belt into numerous pieces, cutting it into sections.
Concurrently…
As the belt was cut open again, more people fell out, crashing onto the surrounding ground, and even…
“Agatsuma Zenitsu?”
Bai Ye saw a falling figure, which was none other than Agatsuma Zenitsu.
This guy had also been captured?
“I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you!”
At this moment, the belt roared in anger, and then, the belt, cut open in mid-air by Bai Ye, instantly straightened, transforming into a series of blades.
Bai Ye stood impassive, knowing it was useless no matter how many times it happened.
The opponent’s attacks were ineffective against his elementalization.
But while Bai Ye did not retaliate, others did.
As the straightened tattered cloth descended from the sky, a woman’s light exclamation echoed behind Bai Ye.
In the next instant, Bai Ye saw a flurry of kunai fly towards the sky, colliding with the tattered cloth and knocking it away.
Bai Ye turned his head and saw a very beautiful woman with a high ponytail, a mole beneath her left eye, and a tight ninja outfit that accentuated her voluptuous figure.
Bai Ye couldn’t help but ask, “Ninja?”
The other party responded, “Demon Slayer Corps?”
Bai Ye scratched his head and replied, “Something like that.”
The other party immediately became excited, “Is Tengen-sama here?”
“Uzumaki Tengen?” Bai Ye realized with a start, “Oh, you’re one of his missing subordinates?”
“I am not just his subordinate!” the woman emphasized unhappily, “I am also his wife, Hinatsuru!”
“Nani?”
Bai Ye’s face instantly contorted into a question mark. That guy, who was clearly dashing and full of charm, actually had a wife?
Hinatsuru nodded, “Besides me, Tengen-sama has two other wives!”
“Ah?”
Bai Ye was instantly amazed, three wives?
Hey, is this 110? Someone is committing bigamy here!
However…
How envious!
Bai Ye mused, if he joined the Demon Slayer Corps now and became Uzumaki Tengen’s disciple, would it still be in time?
“Are you done chattering?”
A roar came from the sky at this moment. It was the belt attacking again, splitting into dozens of strands and stabbing down from the air simultaneously.
Hinatsuru immediately assumed a defensive stance.
“No need to be so nervous, it’s fine,” Bai Ye said to Hinatsuru, “How did you get caught?”
Hinatsuru replied, “I heard the cries of young women. When I arrived, I found the room empty, and then I was knocked unconscious.”
“Oh!”
Bai Ye nodded. This was clearly a trap. It seemed the Sound Hashira’s wife wasn’t too sharp.
Meanwhile, as Bai Ye lightly chatted with Hinatsuru, the belt’s attack arrived.
Boom, boom, boom!
The belts continuously pierced Bai Ye’s body and then embedded themselves in the ground.
Amidst the rumbling, large clouds of dust billowed up.
Hinatsuru was stunned. She had thought Bai Ye was confident, but he was hit head-on?
How come her husband’s new subordinate seemed a bit slow on the uptake?
But at this moment…
Sizzle!
A large wave of azure electricity pushed out from the dust, spreading out along the ground in all directions.
Crack, crack!
The ground made light sounds, and as the current passed, cracks continuously appeared.
Affected by the electromagnetic force, some gravel tumbled on the ground and then slowly floated up, about half a meter off the ground.
Bai Ye stepped out of the dust and looked at the belt suspended in the air, saying, “It’s about time this ended. I’m getting a little bored.”
“Brat!” the belt snapped angrily, “Who do you think you are?”
Bai Ye smiled and didn’t answer. Instead, he slowly bent down, holding Thunder Fang, the Raging Beast in one hand, and his other hand hovering above the hilt, preparing to draw his sword.
“Thunder Breathing…” Bai Ye took a deep breath, “Thunderclap and Flash!”
Bang!
Bai Ye stomped on the ground and leaped forward.
In an instant, Bai Ye’s body became a bolt of lightning, swiftly weaving through the belt.
As Bai Ye weaved through, the belt continuously emitted sounds of being torn apart, then being sliced into pieces.
He continued all the way to the rock face, Bai Ye suddenly stomped on the wall and then gripped Thunder Fang, the Raging Beast tightly in his hand.
Thunder Fang (releases current from the blade, capable of mid-air slashes, can also wrap around the blade for reinforcement, and can be used with all lightning effects)
Sizzle!
The sound of surging current suddenly erupted.
Large amounts of current appeared, wrapping around Thunder Fang, the Raging Beast, and then Bai Ye raised his sword high.
“Slash!”
Bai Ye roared, then slashed his sword downwards.
The current condensed on the sword transformed into an electric blade, which then descended with a roar.
The electric blade was initially only a foot long, but as it descended, it continuously grew larger, and its speed was astonishing.
In the blink of an eye, the electric blade became so enormous that it spanned the entire space.
The ends of the electric blade cut through the rock face, followed by a thunderous roar as the rock walls on both sides were forcibly sliced open.
Countless pieces of rock rained down, and vast clouds of dust swirled, forming two pillars of dust.
Within this space, it was as if it had been instantly covered by electricity.
The walls, the ground, the surrounding rocks, every place flickered with azure arcs of electricity.
The piercing sound of the current vibrated people’s eardrums.
Then…
Boom!
The electric blade finally struck the ground, and also struck the belt.
The entire space trembled at that moment.
Even the buildings of the Entertainment District above began to shake and sway incessantly.
Some people watched their surroundings in fear.
Some quickly hid under tables.
Some held onto walls to steady themselves.
This was…
An earthquake?
Meanwhile…
The underground was completely filled with lightning, and as the lightning gradually dispersed, the belt was now a charred black.
“You have saved the people trapped by demons, and obtained mission rewards: Chain Twin Blades x1, Sound Breathing Advanced Version x1”
The belt was completely destroyed, and the people trapped within were released. Bai Ye’s mission was naturally completed.
However…
Things were clearly not over yet!
Because the next hidden mission had appeared.
…
