Sakura Dance’s body spun like a butterfly, dodging at the crucial moment!
At the same time, she threw cherry-colored shurikens!
“I’ll defend, Miss Linai!
Leave it to me!” The two quickly divided the tasks.
Linai swung her nunchaku and lunged forward, seizing the opportunity when her opponent dodged to strike with the Demon Subduer-karate combo of thrust, spin, and strike.
“Take this!” The club whooshed toward Sakura Dance’s side.
“Eeya.” Using a shuriken to deflect the nunchaku, she slashed toward Linai’s opening with a hand blade.
“This way!” Linai parried with her club, delivering a tricky kick with her right leg as Gongsun Ce’s ground spike attacked simultaneously—
“Eeya!” But Sakura Dance dodged with graceful movements!
Her body, like transparent wind, “passed” through Linai, an optical illusion brought by super-high speed…
It was a speed boost under the effect of Ninja Equipment!
Sakura Dance’s kimono transformed into scattering petals, revealing her true Ninja form.
The pure white fabric, made from closely-knit metal and high-density fibers, clung to her body, outlining breathtaking curves; a cherry-colored demon mask covered half of her face, adding a fierce allure to her beauty.
“Eeya.” Sakura Dance swung her arm slightly backward, her elbow striking directly at Linai’s back.
The struck witch coughed out the air in her lungs.
“Gwah…” The struck Linai fell onto the roof of the train.
Real danger!
If she were to be grazed by the Daotianji traveling at 600 km/h, even a sumo wrestler would end up more tragically flattened than a minced tuna!
Now was not the time to hold back.
“Shiyu Ling!” Gongsun Ce used telekinesis to catch the falling Linai while forming a white matter barrier in front.
However, Sakura Dance’s attack was even faster than the formation of the barrier.
The dagger unsheathed, the Ninja used a secret karate technique, Zen-like Iaijutsu,.
A bright blade flashed like lightning across a clear sky, tearing the air in an instant!
“Oh.” Sakura Dance’s blade abruptly stopped, the edge pressing against the young man’s skin.
Behind the Ninja stood a blue-haired Hunter, a black arrow pointed at the back of her head.
“Continue.” Shiyu Ling provocatively spun the arrow, “I’d enjoy watching you trade blow for blow.”
“A cornered rat will bite the cat.” Sakura Dance countered with Zero Island’s proverb, “Who is the cornered rat, Demon-san?”
Good question.
At first glance, it appeared Sakura Dance was driven into a corner, but in reality, just relying on Shiyu Ling’s close combat skills probably couldn’t even pierce her skin.
Shiyu Ling fully unleashed his powers, forcibly controlling Sakura Dance’s movements while he and Linai rushed forward to take her down—a promising development.
But with three against one, Shiyu Ling’s powers might weaken, and Sakura Dance’s Impermanence Skill was still unclear.
With the lesson learned from the Ming Guest, Gongsun Ce had to be extra cautious.
She didn’t even make a declaration—who knew what Sakura Dance’s true manifestation was?
Shiyu Ling had initially tricked him with Divine Communication, wouldn’t Sakura Dance do the same?
If it turned into a real fight and the opponent’s manifestation was a completely unforeseen superpower, trouble awaited.
He vividly remembered they were on a train.
—There were also hundreds of civilian lives to protect on board.
The train was about to leave the forest.
As thoughts flashed through his mind, the superpower user made a situational judgment.
He pushed aside Sakura Dance’s dagger and said with an embarrassed look, “Sorry, Sakura Dance-san, you’re so beautiful, and this outfit is a bit…overwhelming for me.
Can we talk this out and you put on some clothes first?”
“Hey.” “Hey!” Both female teammates issued succinct reprimands, Gongsun Ce pretended not to hear.
The female Ninja’s eyes carried a hint of surprise as she removed her facial armor and the cherry blossoms reformed into a white kimono.
“Has the Demon-san decided?”
“Decided, decided, my teammates also wanted to see the cherry blossoms,” Gongsun Ce spread his hands, “Would Sakura Dance-san like to stay for a cup of tea?”
Sakura Dance smiled faintly, not responding.
She sheathed her knife, saying, “Let’s decide life or death the next time we meet.”
“Take care of yourself.”
Gongsun Ce mimicked Wildfire’s way of saying goodbye.
He used telekinesis to take his belongings from the carriage, then leaped off the train roof with the two.
“Take care of yourself.” As Sakura Dance receded with the train, she left only a white silhouette.
She waited for the train to exit the forest and, confirming the threesome didn’t follow, she took out a communication device.
“Domo, Zuiyan-san.” Sakura Dance contacted her distant colleague, “Confirmed the locations of the four Shiyus, estimating to complete retrieval within thirty minutes.”
“domo, Sakura Dance-san.
I truly troubled you this time.” The old ninja’s steady voice came through the communicator, “The retrieval task for Shiyu Lingba and Shiyu Shiqi, I entrust to you as well.”
“Very glad to.” Sakura Dance seemed ready to end the communication.
It was as if she remembered something at the last second, after a brief pause, she said, “I also checked out the train mentioned in the intelligence reports on my way.”
“How’s the situation.”
“Three of them are there, I strategically retreated after testing the waters.” She casually omitted the fact that she advised them to get off the train, while also reporting the real situation, a superior tactic of Ninja communication!
“Wise decision, Sakura Dance-san.
This place is not our battlefield,” Zuiyan responded meticulously, “After returning to Weiyuan City, I also entrust you with a detailed assessment of the combat power.”
“Very glad to.” Sakura Dance ended the communication.
The white-clad woman fluttered to the sky like a butterfly, leaving only a cherry blossom on the roof, which the wind blew away into the distance.
–
Behind the railroad, the Hidden Forest.
Three people stood under the cherry blossom tree facing each other, Shiyu Ling was the first to break the silence.
“You are kind-hearted and considerate of civilians, I understand.
You think deeply and decided to avoid battle, that can be considered strategic.
But what were you thinking getting off here without a word?!”
Miss Linai rubbed her back, taking in sharp breaths; Sakura Dance’s elbow strike was fierce.
She added weakly, “The nearest station to Hidden Forest is a two-hour walk away…”
Gongsun Ce adjusted his glasses and said seriously, “I just went with the flow…” The blue-haired hunter grabbed his collar abruptly, “Aren’t you just trying to look cool?!
Men always have to make quick decisions!”
Shiyu Ling released his grip and scornfully said, “I see the truth now, Gongsun Ce, you were charmed by that ninja, the white hair and the mature look, everything that strikes your fancy!”
“What are you talking about?” “Have the guts to look me in the eye and say that.” “Aren’t you clamoring to see cherry blossoms?
This fulfills your travel dream perfectly.” “I meant enjoying the blossoms from inside the train, not just standing stupidly under a tree!” “You fake travel enthusiast!” “Shut up, what right do you have to lecture me!”
The two once again got into a heated argument, while Miss Linai silently laid a paper down under the tree, improvising it as a simple picnic sheet.
“So, are we setting off now, or shall we sit down and enjoy the flowers for a bit?”
Both simultaneously said, “Let’s enjoy the blossoms first.”
Miss Linai thought to herself that she knew these two heartless guys would do this.
She watched the petals dancing in the sky and wondered aloud, “What exactly is the Ninja Army Leader thinking?”
Gongsun Ce positioned his phone at an ideal angle to allow Qiluo to enjoy the view.
“How many leaders does the Ninja Army have?
I remember there are four, Smasher, Zuiyan, Pure, Sakura Dance.”
The Superpower User scratched his head.
“I don’t think the Ninja Army Leaders are all on the same page.”
Where to head next, whether they would have to spend the night outdoors, and whether another Ninja with Divine Communication might come to cause trouble…
He put aside the jumble of thoughts in his mind, allowing himself to become a true tourist in the moment.
Under the light pink sky, scattered blossoms fluttered.
No matter how beautiful the scenery, too much would lead to weariness.
Yet realizing that this flowering season would not last more than a few days and thinking he might never return to see it again, Gongsun Ce couldn’t help but widen his eyes, wishing to imprint this view into his heart.
Seeing the cherry blossoms reminded him of Sakura Dance, the stunning visage.
Had it been his high school days, he would have surely approached her, not just to get contact details but at least to exchange a few more words before leaving…
Gongsun Ce laughed self-deprecatingly and said, “Truly beautiful.”
“Truly beautiful.” At the same moment, the same sentiment arose beside him.
Gongsun Ce and Shiyu Ling exchanged glances, then both hmphed and turned their heads away.
Little did they know, Miss Linai was watching, secretly amused.
