Tornado Destroys the Little Woods - Bonus Chapter

"Cherry blossoms..."

Kyogoku Makoto couldn't help but raise his head and glance at the cherry blossoms under the night sky, then paused in surprise. "Why are there cherry blossoms here?"

"Rampant Cherry Blossom Flash!"

Fujino roared, and the sword energy covering his body suddenly flickered for a moment before disappearing into the cherry blossoms that were drifting around him.

"Disappeared?!"

"Sizzle!"

Kyogoku Makoto looked in surprise at the spot where Fujino had disappeared. The next moment, he suddenly felt a chill and instinctively turned around to block, crossing his arms to protect himself.

A falling cherry blossom silently split in two.

Kyogoku Makoto's karate uniform was suddenly torn, leaving a shallow scar on his arm that stained the white fabric red.

Before Kyogoku Makoto could recover, another chill swept over him, followed by a multitude of killing intents emanating from the surroundings.

Kyogoku Makoto's face darkened as he tried to find the source of those feelings of crisis, but suddenly his face turned pale as he discovered something terrifying.

The source of those murderous intents was none other than...

It was those cherry blossoms that kept falling!

At that moment, another fluttering cherry blossom was silently cut off.

"They're here!"

Kyogoku Makoto noticed this and dodged away.

An invisible, pinkish-white sword aura slashed past the phantom, glancing past him and leaving a one-centimeter-long cut on the bark of a large tree not far behind him.

Where exactly is it?

Kyogoku Makoto kept looking around, trying to find Fujino's location, but the cherry blossoms around him clouded his senses, making it impossible for him to find the other person's location by his scent.

Suddenly, another cherry blossom was cut off silently.

Kyogoku Makoto dodged again, and then three or four more sword energies attacked from all around him.

With nowhere to hide, Kyogoku Makoto, though aware of the opponent's intentions, had no choice but to rise and leap away, dodging the three sword strikes.

"Dragon Hammer Flash!"

Suddenly, Fujino's figure materialized amidst the falling cherry blossoms, casting a dark shadow in the moonlight.

Immediately afterwards, he swung the Wooden Sword in his hand, and amidst the falling cherry blossoms, rushed straight towards Kyogoku Makoto.

Kyogoku Makoto realized what was happening instantly.

But at this moment, he was in mid-air with nowhere to grab onto.

I could only raise my arms and tough it out.

"Bang!"

A loud whooshing sound.

Kyogoku Makoto, struck hard by the Wooden Sword, plummeted backward and crashed into the woods behind him.

"Snap!"

Trees in the forest were broken.

Kyogoku Makoto turned around and curled up, using his arms and knees to block.

The impact of its heavy body falling only gradually dissipated after it crashed into the third tree and broke.

"Tornado Flash!"

"Bang! Bang!"

"Boom..."

A heavy sound kept coming from not far away.

Green leaves fluttered in the air, and birds and beasts scattered.

The trees were falling at a visible rate.

For safety, Ran Ai, and their Sonoko, who had run far away, hid behind a large tree in the nearby bushes.

Sonoko watched as the two men collapsed and hid in the bushes, then turned to Ran and asked, "Are they alright if they keep fighting like this?"

Ran blinked, a hint of hesitation flashing in her beautiful eyes. "She shouldn't... be dead, right..."

Conan: "..."

It would be a miracle if they hadn't died! One of these living beings needs to die!

So many of these big trees have been snapped in half. Even a chainsaw couldn't have cut them down this quickly.

Are you sure these two people are still human, and not some kind of animal like a bull?

What grudge do you have against the tree?

Why destroy such a large tree?

Conan silently complained to himself, then couldn't help but feel an Ai Haibara, "Do you know how outrageous your Fujino is?"

"I don't know!"

Little Grey looked at the woods not far away, its tiny eyes filled with great confusion.

Although I knew Fujino was very strong, and in the last kendo match he even shattered his opponent's protective gear...

But this was indeed beyond her imagination.

"Crescent Moon Kick!"

"Inch Force - Blade Collapse!"

"Cha ha!"

"The Mumei Three-Stage Stab!"

"Thump!"

At that moment, there was another loud, heavy bang.

Another large tree that once stood tall has fallen.

The tree that was brutally murdered +1

"Another one broke!"

Sonoko exclaimed in surprise, looking at Ran beside her. "Ran, can people who practice karate break big trees so easily?"

Ran: "..."

I don't know if I could break the tree, but I certainly couldn't...

Hmm, it's probably impossible.

Smashing a utility pole shouldn't be a problem.

"Thump!"

Then, another tree broke off.

Sonoko turned around and glanced at her, swallowing hard. After hesitating for a moment, she looked at her best friend and said, "Why don't you go and try to persuade her?"

"Well, this isn't really appropriate, is it?"

Ran swallowed hard, and couldn't help but hesitate.

Conan thought Sonoko's words were nonsense, rolled his eyes at her, and said in a childish voice, "Sonoko- neechan, why don't you go and try to persuade her?"

"You little rascal, you really love to talk too much!"

Sonoko was speechless for a moment, then gave him a deadpan look. "You're usually so proactive when something happens, why aren't you up today?"

"Ahem!"

Conan coughed.

Sending Ran would at least give her a chance of survival, but sending him...

Are you sure that someone as small as me won't get accidentally killed by Fujino due to personal grudges?

Conan thought about the scene of offending Fujino yesterday, and then about the scene of himself being smashed into a pulp by a big tree. He turned to Ai Haibara beside him and hesitated, "Why don't you go and die?"

Ai Haibara frowned. "Why do I have to go?"

Conan said matter-of-factly, "After all, he usually cares about you a lot. Why don't you try using your charm? What if he stops after seeing you?"

"I think you're dreaming of peaches."

Ai Haibara gave him a look as if he were an idiot. "The two of them are fighting fiercely right now, which means neither of them is at a disadvantage. If I go over there and accidentally interfere with Fujino, wouldn't Fujino be in danger?"

"Ai is right!"

Ran nodded seriously in agreement. "In a fight of this level, if one side gets distracted, they could very likely suffer a serious injury."

Normally, she would definitely stop those two from continuing to kill the innocent tree.

But given the current situation...

All I can say is that our Mori Ran is at least self-aware.

Even during her regular sparring sessions, she dared not be distracted, for fear of breaking someone's bones.

This kind of sparring that can even break a large tree...

I'm afraid that if you get distracted, you'll be beaten to death.

Thinking this through, Ran suggested, "Let's stay here and observe first, and not disturb them!"

Ai Haibara crossed her arms. "That's right, the best help we can give him is to stay here and not disturb him."

Sonoko nodded repeatedly in agreement. "Yes, me too!"

Conan: "By the way Haibara, what did you mean by 'peach' just now?"

Ai Haibara: "I'm praising you."

I forgot to add it when I posted it a few days ago, so I'm posting it again.
