Chapter 320: Demonic Blade

Chapter 320: Chapter 320: Demonic Blade

"Kyuubi, you foxy lady, I never thought you'd actually get something done," a voluptuous Asian woman in a tight black leather outfit with short blonde hair strutted before Yang Chen, circling him with interest, and taunted Kyuubi the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Kyuubi snorted coldly, "Dead Cat, do you think everyone is as brainless as you, only good for brawling?"

"When it comes to brains, how can you compare to Lord Tokugawa?" The woman called Dead Cat's gaze turned towards an elderly man with white hair who had walked in through the gate.

Though this man looked aged, his face was radiant and his skin smooth, showing no signs of aging. His eyes were like a tranquil pond, staring at Yang Chen without the slightest ripple.

Yang Chen glanced at the white-haired man, then looked at the man and woman behind him, both of whom he had clashed with several times before: Banshou and Lili, the two main ninjas of Sakura, though the Tengu was absent.

Unknown to Yang Chen, the Tengu had already been killed by Banshou.

Banshou's gaze towards Yang Chen was complex, while Lili couldn't stop grinning mischievously, as if she found something amusing.

As for the others who had arrived, three of them were dressed in blue leather outfits—the Storms of the Sam Nation with their blue abilities!

Among them was Judy, who had been repatriated during the battle in the Zang area! There was a hint of excitement on her beautiful face, clearly pleased to see Yang Chen injured. Due to Yang Chen's interference, the Blue Storms had suffered heavy losses and great humiliation. She had survived under the protection of Venus and was now here with two other members to collaborate with Sakura's two major organizations against Yang Chen!

The other three who arrived left Yang Chen puzzled.

They were a Cardinal of the Holy See dressed in red robes and two Knights Templar in armor.

Yang Chen didn't understand why suddenly the Holy See would be involved in a plan against him.

"Lord of the Underworld, we meet again," Judy smiled coquettishly.

Yang Chen leaned back, gradually feeling weakened by the potent drug in his body, making him realize he couldn't stand steadily and had to lean on the door frame.

"I knew it. Even Takamagahara couldn't possibly have concocted a drug that I couldn't handle. So it turns out you're involved too," Yang Chen sighed bitterly.

If anyone in this world could devise a drug or toxin effective against him, it would likely be the Blue Storms.

This organization combined superpowers with the world's top technology, making it entirely possible to develop a drug specifically targeting him.

Sure enough, Judy nodded in confirmation, "Lord of the Underworld, the drug we prepared for you is truly one of a kind in the world. Due to your unique constitution, poisons made from ordinary elements cannot harm you. So after extensive research, we chose to use radioactive elements, polonium, as the primary ingredient. The concentrated polonium, costing forty million dollars, along with two hundred million in other elements and research costs, was all in the cup of tea you just drank."

"Polonium?" Yang Chen lowered his head, glancing at the teacup he had just drunk from. Polonium, being completely colorless and tasteless when dissolved in water, was understandable that he couldn't discern its presence. "You spent nearly three hundred million dollars just to develop a drug to deal with me. Isn't that too extravagant?"

"Hades, do you recognize this sword?"

With that, Tokugawa Zang II drew the blade from its sheath.

A glint reminiscent of autumn water flashed before Yang Chen's eyes. He saw that the katana was densely inscribed with extensive scriptures, and on one side of the blade was carved a vivid ancient dragon.

"A demonic sword, Myoho Muramasa?!"

Yang Chen immediately thought of this name because this sword was extremely famous in the world of assassins. Before Yang Chen truly became the number one assassin of Zero, the legendary assassin of Zero, it was said that this "Myoho Muramasa" was the weapon used.

Muramasa swords were the most famous type of blades in the Edo period, but they clashed with other weapons and all would be damaged, their sharpness difficult to handle, hence they were called demonic swords

Later, descendants of the Tokugawa Shogunate, upon their ancestors being slain by Muramasa, ordered that no more swords of Muramasa's make be used, and a large number of Muramasa demonic swords were destroyed. However, only the most powerful one, cursed with a bloodthirsty curse, remained. This sword was inscribed with the Lotus Sutra and adorned with a dragon motif. With just a dip in blood, the dragon motif would turn red, unleashing boundless combat power.

No wonder Tokugawa Zang II had earned the trust of the first Lord Hades; he had once been the foremost operative of Zero!

"It seems you recognize it," Tokugawa Zang II said, running his hand along the blade with a hint of pride. "The reason for setting this trap here today is because this is our Tokugawa ancestral home. For us, exterminating gods here is a matter of honor. Our Tokugawa ancestors were harmed by the demonic swords, but the strongest one still remains in our hands. You are a worthy opponent for me to draw my blade against. Even if your true strength has been suppressed by special drugs, it's still worth me using Muramasa to kill you."

After Tokugawa Zang II finished speaking, he placed the blade in front of Yang Chen. "I'll ask again, where is the Divine Stone?"

Yang Chen felt his breath was becoming painful. If it weren't for his robust physique and the profound internal skills derived from the Pure Thought Meditation, his heart would have been pierced and he would have died hundreds of times over.

"Even if I were to reincarnate today, I wouldn't tell you," Yang Chen chuckled. "Besides, you might not be able to kill me."

"Ignorance..."

Tokugawa Zang II shouted loudly, the demonic sword in his hand like a startled swan!

Yang Chen's face turned ashen, and he suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood. Incredibly, he looked down and saw that half of the demonic sword had already pierced his chest.

Apart from the golden-threaded poison dagger, the demonic sword had simultaneously pierced his heart.

The drug developed by the Blue Storm unexpectedly made his brain sluggish. He couldn't even think about dodging in time, and his body lost its ability to move!

Yang Chen felt a dizzy spell, his body's strength rapidly ebbing away, and the world before him began to blur.

Finally, everything turned black.
