549 The Past and the Battle ?

Filling up the surroundings and in the sky, hundreds of thousands of spirits howled in the wind. It was like the world was Hell. Thousands of spirit eyes glinted ominously. Cannon and Matsuo were so scared they felt like their sweat and hair had retreated into their follicles.

An apostle spirit in a young lady's body came forward and shouted, "Matsuo you traitor, raise your hands and surrender yourself immediately--"

"--CANNON!" Momo's wailing voice cut off the female apostle spirit mid-sentence.

The male spirit Momo possessed was staring at Cannon, saying sorrowfully, "Since you didn't die, why didn't you come and find me?"

"Miss, I think you're mistaken. I am not Cannon. My name is Italy, not Cannon."

"Haha," Momo laughed dryly, "We were together for more than three months. Even if you turned into ashes I would still recognize you. Cut it out. I will send you to the pet hospital today to have you castrated to make you pay for all that you have done."

Cannon immediately replied, "I think you're confused… Oh right, I have a younger brother called Cannon. Maybe you mistook me for him?"

"Go on, continue acting," Momo tersely replied, "I believed your pompous acts back then. That was how you took advantage of my feelings."

Both Bai Quan and Matsuo's stares turned into looks of contempt for Cannon.

Cannon wanted to continue pretending but he realized there was no point in that and stood up. "That's enough b*tch. Don't make it sound like it was all my fault back then, okay? At that time, I was still the best supercat in Tokyo. The number of female cats who liked me was enough to fill up the whole of Tokyo Bay. Didn't you chase me first?"

"I chased you first?" Momo spat furiously, "Who asked me out to catch mice? Who was thick-skinned and brought me to watch the fireworks with him and sent seafood to my doorstep every few days?"

"That was because I liked you back then," Cannon retorted, "Why don't you talk about how you changed after that? You checked my phone all day to see my chat records and I had to tell you wherever I went. I am a cat, not a dog. I felt like I had no freedom at all when I was with you. No cat would ever be able to tolerate that."

"That's because you cheated on me!" Momo screamed in rage, "I still have the photo of you and Yoshiko in the hotel!"

"How many times do you want to hear this?! I went to the hotel with Yoshiko that day to use the hotel wifi. We were only playing Mobile Legends together!" Cannon raged, "And why don't you talk about that time when you went to Mt. Fuji for a holiday together with Maru Kaze? And how the two of you spent the night together?!"

Momo shouted back, "You know that Maru Kaze is gay! We grew up together! He is like a sister to me."

"Haha, gay? Sister?" Cannon laughed sarcastically.

Hearing his sarcastic laughter, Momo was even more enraged, "Cannon, you're dead! I will castrate you today! Spirit Army, catch all of them! Remember, make sure to catch them alive."

Although they could not understand Cannon's meowing, based on the words of the middle-aged man Momo possessed, they knew enough to deduce the whole story. All the spirits present, as well as Bai Quan and Matsuo, could not help but roll their eyes at how the situation had turned into some romantic melodrama.

It was only at this point that the two cats finally stopped quarreling. At Momo's command, the scene turned into a battlefield with thousands of spirits glaring ominously at the two men and the cat on the beach, howling out menacingly at them.

"Hahahaha, look at their scared faces."

"Keke, if we strike together, they might just be torn into a hundred shreds."

"What should we do then? Lord Momo told us not to kill them."

Hearing the ghoulish howls, Cannon shrieked in fright and hid behind Bai Quan.

At the same time, the ten of apostle spirits stepped out one by one.

A female apostle spirit with a body made of fire appeared. She had flames as her hair and a whip in her hand. She smirked and said, "Chinese guy, you're really unlucky. Both of your friends are our targets. Do you want to surrender now?"

"Since Lord Momo specifically instructed us to capture them alive, we apostle spirits have no choice but to take over from the Spirit Army. If the army attacks them in full force, they will die too easily." Another apostle spirit in the body of an elder wielding a katana with a cold and vicious aura said icily, "Stop fooling around, Flaming Orchid. We should join forces to capture all of them. If we continue wasting time, the Special Higher Police forces will arrive soon enough."

As he said that, the elder spirit drew out his katana and stared at Bai Quan and his friends while saying, "Sword Spirit, Isawa Ito, nice to meet you."

The female apostle spirit who was wrapped in flames also introduced herself, giggling sinisterly, "Flaming Orchid Devil, Misa Ayuta, remember me when you go to Hell."

Following that, apostle spirits with all sorts of superpowers stepped out one by one, unleashing bouts of flames, icicles, and even hurricanes.

"Divine Gun, Ichi Shogaku," bellowed an apostle spirit with strong body and a metal gun in his hand. Golden rays emanated from his body.

"East Sea Devil, Arashi Amakusa," another apostle spirit with a shape-shifting body shrouded in black smoke came forth.

"Undying Dragon, created for eternity."

"Demon Spirit, Rukawa Shota."

As each apostle spirit came forward to introduce themselves, the rest of the surrounding spirits howled and clapped with enthusiasm, while Cannon and Matsuo felt more and more hopeless.

However, Bai Quan could not help but roll his eyes at the sight of the apostle spirits coming out to introduce themselves. "Just like Boss said, you Japanese spirits love to exaggerate, even with your nicknames. Can we stop with the names and start fighting? What a waste of time."

Misa Ayuta started giggling again, "Looks like this Chinese boy still doesn't get what's happening."

Ichi Shogaku began spinning the rifle in his hand as if he was churning a tornado. "Hmph, he's slighting us. Seems like he has never heard our names before."

East Sea Devil Arashi Amakusa smirked and said, "You guys are being too serious. They're just a man, a cat, and a ghost. There's no need for all these formalities. Let's keep it simple, like this…"

In the next moment, Arashi Amakusa appeared behind Bai Quan in a flash, with a vicious aura that pierced his back and chilled him to the bone.

"Dagger of Divine Destruction!"

Although Arashi Amakusa was always shrouded in black smoke and looked as if his superpower had something to do with that, this was actually just a basic spirit shape-shifting ability. His actual superpower was teleportation.

His usual method of killing was to teleport behind the person as he was talking and backstab the unsuspecting person with his dagger. He called this skill the Dagger of Divine Destruction.

However, this time, just as the mixed metal dagger ruthlessly pierced Bai Quan's singlet and touched his skin, it was blocked by his marble-like muscles and the strength of his virgin boy power. As much as Arashi Amakusa exerted his strength, he could not even pierce through the surface of his skin.

Bai Quan shook his head in exasperation, "You call this the Dagger of Divine Destruction? I heard of another fella who has much stronger backstabbing skills than you."
