Chapter 142 The Great Operation to Seize Hirumaru
Chapter 142 The Great Operation to Seize Hirumaru
Xu Xin snorted coldly as he watched Bi He Ren enter the arena.
"Hmph! Those brats from Bihe Mountain weren't honest back then. They promised they'd never set foot on our soil again, but they still dare to come. Ma Long! Keep a close eye on him. Once the sword-testing tournament is over, take him down immediately!"
Ma Long glanced at Xu Xin with some hesitation.
"Uncle-Master, perhaps I should contact Tang Qiu first. I'm worried there might be other hidden Bihe Ninjas nearby. If I leave, you..."
The Tang Qiu that Ma Long mentioned is the Tang Clan contestant participating in this sword-testing tournament. He is currently inside with the other contestants who have already passed the test, waiting for the competition to end.
Before coming here, Tang Miaoxing instructed Ma Long to protect Xu Xin's safety. He hadn't practiced Tang Sect techniques in all these years in the Pill Tomb, and his skills had long since become half-abandoned.
Ma Long is the only person with Xu Xin right now, and he doesn't dare leave Xu Xin here alone.
Xu Xin glared at Ma Long: "What! You're worried about my safety now?"
Seeing that he couldn't persuade Ma Long, Xu Xin glanced at Zhang Chulan beside him.
"Don't worry, my godson is still here. He's the champion of the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony. Keep a close eye on them and don't let Bi He Ren escape from the other side of Tianchi."
Tianchi Lake is not entirely within China; half of it is located on the adjacent peninsula.
If Higanbana runs directly across the border, it will be difficult for them to cross the border to pursue him. Therefore, they must capture Higanbana near the floating ice platform!
Although Zhang Chulan knew how he won the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, the matter of capturing the spy was of great importance, so he still pretended to be calm and patted his chest to assure him.
"Don't worry, Brother Ma, I'll definitely protect my godfather with me here."
Ma Long looked at Zhang Chulan with some doubt, but finally nodded helplessly under Xu Xin's gaze.
……
Watanabe Hayato glanced around and, seeing the hostility directed at him from the crowd, knew he had been completely exposed.
But he was already mentally prepared for this situation. The biggest goal of the sword-testing tournament for the ninja was only one thing—to retrieve Hirumaru!
The Higanbana ninja have made full preparations for this operation, and a large number of them have begun their work.
As long as we can seize Hirumaru, any sacrifice Biaishan has to make will be worthwhile.
Meanwhile, on a hillside on the other side of Tianchi, within the peninsula's territory, two Higanbana ninjas had already laid down, calmly holding their equipment and awaiting orders from the Higanbana ninjas.
If any other supernatural beings were to see them here, they would immediately recognize the weapons they were carrying.
It's a heavy sniper rifle!
These two Higanbana ninjas were sent to a mercenary organization by the Butterfly to learn how to use modern weapons, and became some of the few sniper ninjas among them. This heavy sniper rifle was purchased by the Higanbana ninjas at a high price from the black market.
There is an unwritten rule in the world of supernatural beings: matters between supernatural beings are resolved by other supernatural beings themselves.
But all of this is on the premise that the superhumans do not use any additional means! And firearms are one of the most serious red lines for all national organizations.
Once you bring this out, you'll not only face an attack from the supernatural, but also besieged by the army.
To ensure the success of this operation, Higanbana has completely gone mad!
To avoid being detected, the sniper scope was previously closed.
At this moment, the instructions from Higanbana finally arrived. The sniper ninja quickly opened the scope of his sniper rifle, and the spotter next to him quickly assessed the environment where Hirumaru was located.
Beside the Heavenly Lake, Gao Lian was watching Watanabe Hayato in the arena. He felt that the direction of the gaze of the Higanbana ninja in front of him was not right. His perspective was not on his opponent Hirumaru, but seemed to be looking at the distant mountain peaks.
Suddenly, Gao Lian saw a light flash in the distant mountains and forests, and an incredible idea rushed into his mind.
The next instant, Gao Lian's pupils suddenly contracted, and everyone looked at Hiruma in the arena in disbelief.
At this moment, Hirumaru burst into laughter, a huge hole appeared in his waist, and he was almost split in two.
Immediately afterwards, a huge sound came from afar.
"It's a sniper rifle! Take cover!"
As Gao Lian shouted loudly, Higanbana Shinobu rushed towards Hirumaru, who had been cut in two. Watanabe Hayato lunged forward and drew his sword, severing Hirumaru's arm. He then immediately pulled out a piece of cloth from his pocket, attempting to wrap Hirumaru up.
Just then, an extremely fast sword light slashed out from the arena. Ye Liuyun, who was in the arena, swung a sword aura at Watanabe Hayato the moment Hirumaru "died".
The sword energy severed his hands and continued its powerful charge into the distant mountains and forests!
Just as the sniper ninja was about to fire his second shot, a bright light in his scope grew larger and larger. Before he could react, the sniper rifle sliced him in two at the same time.
Gao Lian looked at the explosion caused by the sword energy in the distant mountains and forests, knowing that the sniper had been taken care of by Ye Liuyun below.
She glanced at him gratefully and immediately shouted loudly to the members of NaDuTong.
"Get to the ice floe platform quickly! Don't let the ninja from the Hehe Ninja clan leave!"
The moment the sniper rifle fired, many Hiei-zan ninjas leaped out of the water at the ice floe platform. They rushed onto the platform and ran quickly toward Hiruma.
Gao Lian had already prepared several speedboats by Tianchi Lake, intending to rush in as soon as the race ended.
He initially planned to transport the NaDuTong team to the ice floe platform in advance, but his assistant Lao Zhang said that the competition was not over yet, and whether their entry would cause dissatisfaction among the people behind the scenes.
Gao Lian thought Lao Zhang's words made sense, and since they had already laid a tight net, he agreed to Lao Zhang's suggestion.
"Old Zhang, what are you waiting for? Get in here! We need to drive in quickly!"
While grumbling, Gao Lian hurriedly directed everyone to board the speedboat. However, to Gao Lian's dissatisfaction, Lao Zhang, who was always at the forefront, was dawdling and standing by the Tianchi Lake, still not having boarded the speedboat.
Suddenly, a dangerous aura emanated from inside the cabin, and an inexplicable heat was gathering inside the ship!
"Danger! Jump ship!!!"
Before the members of the Na Du Tong team on the speedboat could react to what was happening, several violent explosions suddenly erupted from the speedboat, and all the speedboats on the shore exploded!
Amidst the flames, Gao Lian leaped out, carrying two men. He only had time to bring the two men beside him out; the other brothers were unaware of what had happened.
Gao Lian stared intently at Old Zhang, who had already activated his protective shield on the shore.
"Old Zhang! I never expected you to be a Bihe Ren too!"
