Although he didn't recognize Tonryoku, Inosuke still heard two familiar names.
"Isn't that the muscular monster's wife? How did she turn into this?"
Just as he was wondering, Makio and Suma, who were being controlled, did not hesitate.
With a roar, it charged towards Inosuke.
"What a nuisance, how did it turn out like this?"
Seeing the two people rushing towards him, Inosuke had no choice but to dodge.
He pulled out a kunai from his pocket, and the two women attacked him like wild beasts, without any strategy or method.
"It seems that this method is not very practical."
Not far away, Tonryoku Makio Maki's attacks and muttered to himself.
"It's really not worth it to have to rely on instinct to attack."
"Things will be much better once it's been transformed."
Rokuya stood beside him and said calmly.
"Aren't only Mitsu capable of possessing exceptional intelligence and combat prowess even before being transformed?"
Hearing Rokuya praising him, Mitsu also smiled.
"My case is one in a million."
"Speaking of which, Mitsu, didn't you go to catch Koinatsu? How come I didn't see you?"
Nodding, Tonryoku suddenly seemed to have thought of something and asked.
"Could it be that you failed?"
The smile that had just appeared on his lips froze instantly. Mitsu's whole body tensed up, unsure of how to respond.
"How could that be? Mitsu thousand, one in a million."
Before Mitsu could speak, Rokuya interrupted.
"With such strength and wisdom, how could they possibly fail?"
Seeing Rokuya's sinister smile, Mitsu knew he had been tricked.
Even though she was furious, she couldn't just let it all out.
She shook her head and said.
"Just bad luck, I didn't find it."
"Really? I hope it really is just bad luck."
The sarcastic remarks came again, Rokuya shrugged and walked to Mitsu's side.
"I just hope you don't get defeated and run away looking pathetic."
"You!"
With a fierce expression, Mitsu could no longer suppress his anger.
"Enough!"
He grabbed Rokuya and pulled him away, Tonryoku stopped the two of them.
"Koinatsu is just an ordinary human, she doesn't have that much power."
"Since Mitsu said he didn't see it, then let it go."
"She's not someone we absolutely have to capture, there's no need to force it. What we should be doing now is ensuring the safety of this place."
"Yes, Tonryoku" *2
Upon hearing what Tonryoku said, Mitsu and Rokuya quickly and respectfully responded.
A spark flew between them as they looked at each other, but they wisely refrained from continuing the conversation.
Tonryoku holds the highest position among them, as personally stated by Dichai, and is the overall person in charge of this operation.
For this reason, Mitsu and Rokuya still had to obey him.
On the other side, Inosuke jumped back again, dodging the dart thrown by Suma.
He suddenly shouted, trying to create as much distance as possible between the group.
'Hey, what are you doing? Tengen Uzui even asked us to come and save you, and this is how you repay us?'
Upon hearing the name Tengen Uzui, Makio and Suma paused for a moment.
Seeing this, Tonryoku frowned.
He extended his right hand and then made a grasping motion in the air.
"Pfft pfft"
As two splashes of water rang out, two thin lines flew out of the blood pool.
"Go."
With a cold remark, Tonryoku flicked the thin thread toward the two women.
The blood-red thread flew behind Makio and Suma in the blink of an eye and pierced their bodies.
"Ugh!"
Painful screams rang out, and the patterns on the two women's bodies grew brighter and brighter.
Correspondingly, the body, which had been somewhat stiff, began to move again.
"This is troublesome."
As the two sped up, Inosuke, wearing the Boar Head mask, was already sweating profusely.
Just then, he suddenly saw what looked like a familiar face in the red cocoon not far away.
"What's that kid doing here?!"
His tone brightened with delight; he hadn't expected to run into Agatsuma Zenitsu here.
He ran quickly to the cocoon, pounded on its shell, and shouted.
"Hey, wake up, wake up!"
However, no matter how hard Inosuke, Zenitsu inside the red cocoon seemed not to hear him and continued to sleep soundly.
Judging from the drool dripping from the corner of his mouth, he seems to be having a sweet dream.
"This guy..."
Realizing that ordinary tapping was ineffective, Inosuke immediately raised his Nichirin Blade high.
It seems that everything here was created by the Demon Blood Art.
If that's the case, then Breathing Technique must be useful.
"Beast Breathing * Sixth Fang* Random Sting and Bite!"
The two Nichirin Blade slashed inwards, striking the outer shell of the red cocoon heavily.
"Pfft"
Looking at the shattered shell, Inosuke's eyes lit up with joy.
"It worked."
But what happened next was not what he had imagined.
Although Zenitsu, who was rescued, did not attack him like Makio and Suma, he was still asleep.
He slumped into Inosuke's arms, a silly grin on his face.
"Hehehe, big sister."
Seeing that Inosuke had rescued Zenitsu, Rokuya wanted to give Tonryoku a hint.
"Should we...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Tonryoku reached out and interrupted him.
"Don't speak!"
With a furrowed brow, Tonryoku kept turning its head, observing the surrounding stone walls.
Just now, he heard four voices.
One is the sound of Inosuke shattering the outer shell and rescuing Zenitsu.
What were the other three voices?
A possibility flashed through his mind, Tonryoku's expression changed instantly.
"Hey, get ready!"
He shouted at the ghosts behind him, his expression showing some fear.
"We might be in trouble."
Just as Rokuya and the others were wondering, a clear drilling sound came from the ground.
"Rumble rumble~"
The sound was incredibly heavy, as if some large machinery was digging a pit.
"There it is."
Anze, who looked like a gang leader, raised his head, pointed in a direction, and said.
"It sounded like something cutting through stone."
No sooner had they finished speaking than the stone wall opposite them exploded with a deafening roar.
A burly figure leaped out and landed on the ground.
"You old woman, come out here!"
The moment he heard that voice, Mitsu's expression changed.
But before she could speak, another voice came.
Unlike before, this time the sound was like a snake crawling on the ground.
"Shh shh shh"
With a few soft sounds, a ribbon slipped out from a crack in the stone wall.
"I've finally found you! It's been a long search for you."
A mature voice rang out, and then a tall figure leaped out from the ribbon.
"Oh, brother, you're here too."
She had just finished speaking when, as if sensing something, she looked up at the sky directly above her head.
"Boom!"
A thunderous sound rang out, and the rocks above were shattered.
As he dodged the falling pebbles, Tonryoku's expression grew increasingly grim.
A gentle breeze blew by, indicating that a hole had been opened that led directly to the ground.
Moreover, he sensed a familiar presence from the ground.
That was a human I had just met tonight.
"That guy is coming."
Chapter 413 The Scribe Makes His Appearance
Not only Tonryoku, but all the demons, including Mitsu Rokuya, changed their expressions the moment the cave entrance was breached.
They all sensed the presence on the ground outside.
"How is this possible? What about Lord Dichai? Lord Imamura and Kamihito Ichi? How could they possibly have failed!"
"You're asking me? Who should I ask?"
