Yorii Tsugikuni and Adai vanished from the small restaurant.
Although the tracker was intuitive, it had requirements regarding the distance to the target.
When the distance was too great, it could not track them.
However, Adai did not have that limitation.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp..."
On the street, Yorii Tsugikuni set Adai down.
After receiving Yorii Tsugikuni's tracking command,
the toy rabbit hanging from Adai's waist fell off.
A flash of light passed, and the little rabbit transformed into a massive mount.
Yorii Tsugikuni climbed onto it with Adai.
The instant the two mounted it, the Tracking Rabbit shot off like a rocket.
In an instant,
the hard street surface was forcibly plowed into two deep trenches by the Tracking Rabbit's hind legs.
Ieyasu, who had been looking around on the street while waiting for Sayo to return, was sucked into the vacuum created by the Tracking Rabbit's rapid launch and thrown to the ground.
"It disappeared."
Generally speaking, the strength an Imperial Arm could exert was closely related to its owner.
Lying on the ground, Ieyasu looked at the cracks stretching dozens of meters before him, left by that kick, then at the vanished Tracking Rabbit.
His face was filled with shock.
If that giant rabbit's foot had kicked his head just now,
Ieyasu did not dare imagine what would have happened.
"Just a mere accessory is this terrifying."
"Could Adai have been hiding his strength?"
Getting to his feet, Ieyasu watched Tatsumi and Sayo hurry out of the small shop.
While marveling at it, he was also somewhat confused about what had happened.
"Sayo has disappeared."
"Let's hurry and catch up."
Tatsumi and Sayo did not explain further.
Following the large pits left behind by the Tracking Rabbit, they chased after it.
Although they had not known Sayo for long, they had already regarded her as a good friend.

A Difference Across Dimensions, Defeating the Enemy in an Instant
"Where is this?"
"What are you trying to do?"
Sayo looked suspiciously at Shira before shielding the children from the orphanage behind her.
She had suddenly appeared here, and her Imperial Arm, Hekatonkheires, had not come with her.
"Beautiful miss, there is no need to worry."
"This is one of my estates. I merely wish to play a game with you and Mr. Yorii Tsugikuni."
With a casual gesture from Shira, the members of Wild Hunt who had long been waiting nearby surrounded Sayo.
They were:
Kensei Izou, the swordsman who constantly performed blood sacrifices with his blade, "Gouetsu."
Dotya, the alchemist who possessed the Imperial Arm Blood Collection, "Rapid Absorption," which could drain people dry through bloodsucking and use it to heal herself and increase her own strength. She enjoyed conducting human experiments.
Diva Kosmia, who possessed the Imperial Arm Earth Tremor, "Heavy Pressure," whose voice could become ultrasonic waves and crush an enemy's bones. She enjoyed playing with men.
Enshin, the pirate who had conquered the southern islands. He possessed the Imperial Arm Moonlight Dance, "Wind Blade Sword," which could unleash vacuum blades and reached its strongest state under a full moon. He enjoyed playing with women.
Champ, the killer who enjoyed torturing children to death. He possessed the Imperial Arm Wild Hunt, "Great Pitcher," which could throw storm orbs, explosive orbs, flame orbs, ice orbs, lightning orbs, and corrosive orbs.
The five Imperial Arms Users were all extremely powerful.
"Oh, right. Don't worry, I'll soon invite over that beautiful young lady with long black hair as well. Then we can all have fun together."
Shira looked at Sayo, who had already drawn her longsword, and laughed loudly.
Even if that young man named Yorii Tsugikuni possessed strength rivaling five Imperial Arms Users,
he was utterly helpless before Shira's Shangri-La.
Although a week had already passed, he still vividly remembered being slapped by his father.
Since his birth, Honest had never been so harsh toward him.
Shira had already investigated Yorii Tsugikuni's background and learned that Sayo, Sayo, and the other two youths all had good relationships with Yorii Tsugikuni.
Humiliating the people an enemy cared about brought an unparalleled thrill.
That was why he would teleport these people here one after another.
Though she did not have Hekatonkheires with her, Sayo showed no fear in the face of Wild Hunt's encirclement.
She drew the longsword in her hand and attacked the people closing in around her.
Waiting helplessly for death was not what she wanted.
Enhanced by Breathing Techniques, Sayo's sword was incredibly fast as it slashed out in an instant.
However, the members of Wild Hunt were no weaklings either.
Moreover, every one of them possessed an Imperial Arm. As Sayo's strike came down,
the man named Izou instantly drew his longsword and slashed at Sayo.
"Clang!"
After one collision, Sayo staggered back repeatedly. The numbness and piercing pain in her palm made her frown.
"If you keep struggling, both you and these children will die."
Shira was slightly surprised as he watched Sayo block that strike.
He had not expected Sayo to still have the strength to resist.
Pointing at the children behind Sayo, Shira wore a crazed smile.
Torturing enemies to death together with his companions was one of his greatest pleasures.
The more an enemy struggled, the more excited he became.
"Boom!"
A fierce gust of wind swept through.
As the ground shook, a massive rabbit appeared before everyone.
The one who had arrived was Yorii Tsugikuni.
Stepping down from the Tracking Rabbit, Yorii Tsugikuni stood before Sayo.
Adai stood at Yorii Tsugikuni's side.
"..."
Seeing Yorii Tsugikuni suddenly appear, Shira froze. The cruel words he had intended to continue speaking caught in his throat.
He took a step back and stood behind the members of Wild Hunt.
Though he had always been exceedingly arrogant, he had just used Shangri-La once, and his current condition was not good.
While watching Yorii Tsugikuni, Shira took out a small medicine bottle and swallowed some pills.
"Stay."
Yorii Tsugikuni did not say much.
Nor was there any need to say much. Sayo and the many orphanage children were proof enough.
These people all needed to be captured.
And most importantly, they had harmed his... friends.
Though countless years had passed, Yorii Tsugikuni had not grown numb because of time. He was still human.
A person with feelings.
"I admit that you truly have some skill."
"But isn't it too naive of you to think you can keep us here?"
"My father is Minister Honest, and every one of my companions is an Imperial Arms User."
Shira looked at Yorii Tsugikuni and suddenly spread his hands. "And I am the user of Shangri-La, a spatial Imperial Arm!"
"Captain Yorii Tsugikuni, tell me, what gives you the right to lay a hand on—"
"How is this possible?!"
Before Shira could finish speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted.
Yorii Tsugikuni, who had originally been at least ten meters away, crossed past the people around Shira and arrived right in front of him in an instant.
Without any hesitation, Shira activated Shangri-La and teleported to another location.
However, the moment Shira teleported to his next position, he felt an unprecedented, intense pain erupt from his abdomen.
Yorii Tsugikuni smashed Shira into the ground with a single punch.
Boom!
Amid a violent roar,
the relatively hard ground instantly caved in. With Shira at its center, dense spiderweb-like cracks spread in every direction.
