“Capture him alive!” The lead ninja commanded in Orientian.
Among the two ninjas attacking Amaya, one retracted his samurai dagger while the other extended his clawed hand towards her neck.
“Kihachi, hand over that thing, or your daughter will die!” The lead ninja looked at Kihachi, speaking in a somewhat stiff Mheffada.
Kihachi’s face turned extremely ugly, and in his eyes, there was deep-seated hatred and boundless anger towards the lead ninja.
“Don’t touch Miss!” A young guard standing behind Kihachi shouted.
Although he knew it was too late to rescue Amaya, he still mobilized all his inner strength and rushed towards her.
The ninja’s hand was about to grab Amaya’s neck.
Swoosh!
A sound of breaking air rang out.
A blue wind blade suddenly shot out without warning, directly towards the ninja’s hand.
“Ah…!”
Immediately after, a scream of agony resounded.
The ninja’s palm flew off and blood gushed from his wrist as he reached for Amaya.
However, the blood from the ninja’s wrist did not reach Amaya because a layer of blue light appeared in front of her.
At the same time, Leo appeared by Amaya’s side.
When the ninja’s severed hand fell to the ground, both the other ninja attacking Amaya and Zoshiro and the lead ninja were shocked.
The cold gazes of the ninjas all focused on Leo.
“Leo!” Amaya turned her head, surprise and joy appearing in her beautiful eyes.
“Are you alright?” Leo nodded and asked with a smile.
Amaya was Sophia’s best friend after all, and Leo had no good feelings towards Orientian ninjas, so he didn’t hesitate to take action.
“I’m fine.” Amaya snapped back to her senses and let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you for saving me.”
Leo’s sudden appearance made Seiho, who was charging towards Amaya, stop in his tracks.
Seeing that his precious daughter was unharmed, Kihachi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
If his daughter had been captured by the Orientian ninjas, he didn’t know what he would do.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, it was the young man who offered ten million dollars who saved his daughter.
“You damn brat! How dare you ruin the Hojo Clan’s plan! Giokan, kill him!” The lead ninja ordered the uninjured black-clad ninja.
Upon hearing this, Giokan activated his ninja power and placed both hands near his mouth.
“Ninjutsu, Fireball Technique!” Giokan shouted lowly as a ball of crimson flames spewed from his mouth.
The crimson flames formed into a large fireball and rushed towards Leo and Amaya without warning.
Seeing this, Imogen’s expression changed. She activated her inner power and slapped her palm towards the crimson fireball.
“Your opponent is me!” Zoshiro’s eyes flashed with cold light as he shouted. He swung his samurai sword and split Imogen’s palm imprint in half.
The crimson fireball was about to hit Amaya in front of Leo.
“A trivial trick.” Leo sneered and waved his right hand towards the fireball.
With just a simple wave, the fireball instantly dissipated as if he had casually extinguished a flame.
Immediately after, a fierce pillar of fire appeared out of thin air and shot towards Giokan.
Giokan’s face changed. He formed complex hand seals with both hands, summoning a flame shield in front of him.
The flame shield protected Giokan completely, adorned with ancient flame spirit patterns.
Boom!
The pillar of fire collided with the flame shield.
After a brief stalemate, the flame shield shattered. Although the pillar of fire disappeared as well, the powerful impact still landed on Giokan.
Giokan was sent flying and crashed heavily into a marble pillar in the hall.
The pillar cracked like a spiderweb, and Giokan’s body slid down like a pile of mud.
As Giokan hit the ground, his face turned pale. He spat out a mouthful of blood and stared at Leo with disbelief.
The scene fell into silence.
With just one move, he actually made a Human Ninja vomit blood!
Imogen and Seiho exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other’s eyes.
Not only because Leo’s strength was too formidable but also because they couldn’t sense any fluctuations of inner power from him.
“Damn it…”
Zoshiro and the lead ninja were both shocked and furious when they saw Giokan spitting blood on the ground and their comrade losing a hand.
They never expected that this operation would be thwarted by an Atrarian boy.
After the ninja whose hand was severed stopped the bleeding with his ninja power, he finally recovered from the pain. When he looked at Leo, his face twisted with ferocity.
“Ninjutsu, Chaotic Blade Style!” The one-handed ninja formed complex hand seals with his remaining hand, releasing a surge of ninja power.
In front of the one-handed ninja, countless chaotic streams of air appeared. These streams condensed into hundreds of invisible blades.
“Kill!” The one-handed ninja shouted fiercely.
The chaotic air blades whistled towards Leo and Amaya.
Wherever the air blades passed, wooden tables and chairs were instantly shredded into pieces.
Even the hard ground was cut open with terrifying cracks.
“Be careful, Leo!” Amaya shouted anxiously.
“It’s alright, don’t worry.” The attacks from the one-handed ninja didn’t concern Leo at all.
He summoned a defensive Diamond Talisman.
A pale golden inverted bell-shaped barrier protected Leo and Amaya.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The chaotic air blades struck against the protective barrier like countless slashing knives.
For a moment, sparks flew everywhere. In the dimly lit hall, it was quite a spectacle.
After more than ten seconds, the chaotic air blades dissipated, and the pale golden barrier disappeared. Leo and Amaya were unharmed.
“It’s impossible, impossible!” The one-handed ninja roared in disbelief, his face filled with incredulity. “Who are you?”
“You don’t need to know because you’re about to die.” Leo sneered. He extended his right hand, and the Divine Dragon Sword appeared automatically in his grasp.
Then, a earthy yellow halo flashed by as Leo disappeared from his original position.
“Mr. Takeshita, quickly leave your current spot. He’s using Escape Technique!” The lead ninja leader’s pupils contracted as he loudly warned them.
Upon hearing the warning, Ichiro activated his ninja power. He pushed off with his toes to leave his original spot.
But in that split second, Leo appeared behind Ichiro.
“You can’t escape.”
Leo’s voice echoed in Ichiro’s ears.
At the same time, the Divine Dragon Sword had already pierced through Ichiro’s back.
Ichiro widened his eyes in disbelief. He never expected that he would meet his end at Atraria’s hands.
When Leo withdrew the Divine Dragon Sword from Ichiro’s body, Ichiro collapsed to the ground, dead beyond death itself.
Once again, silence filled the scene.
“Mr. Takeshita!” The lead ninja leader shouted angrily with a furious expression on his old face.
Apart from the lead ninja leader, Zoshiro, Giokan, Kihachi, Imogen, and Seiho were all dumbfounded by Ichiro’s death for quite some time.
“What incredible techniques…” Seiho muttered to himself.
“Next up is you.” Leo shifted his gaze to Giokan.
