Ox-King Summons Thunder: The Net of Heaven Is Vast / We'll Surely Find a Way Tomorrow
Let's observe for now and refrain from intervening in the battle.
"There's fighting over there, let's go check it out!"
At the same time, a group of people looking for Yuxian also appeared in the vicinity.
They quickly noticed the battle taking place in the distance; in the dead of night, such a battle was quite conspicuous.
"Oh! It's Nezuko!"
As the children approached, they discovered Nezuko was on one of the fighting sides and immediately became anxious, wanting to rush over to help.
In the children's hearts, Nezuko is their best friend, and it is absolutely unacceptable for a best friend to be bullied.
"Don't run around! Let's go together."
Mash quickly called out to them, as it wouldn't be good to run around like this. The group quickened their pace and headed towards the battlefield.
"Nezuko, don't be afraid! We're here to help you!"
Upon arriving at the scene of the battle, the children's voices could be heard even before they got close.
"Waaah!"
Nezuko was extremely anxious when she saw Tanjiro being beaten so badly and in imminent danger of death.
Upon hearing the children's voices, he immediately began to gesticulate excitedly as he told them his story.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we're here, everything will be alright."
The children swarmed around her, comforting Nezuko while glaring angrily at Gyokko.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gyokko wanted to retreat, but now that she was surrounded, it would not be so easy.
He shouted for help from the Hantengu.
However, how could the Hantengu possibly come to his aid? He was now facing a female warrior with a terrifying smile.
Minamoto no Raikō's aura was far superior to Zenitsu Agatsuma's; he could exert immense pressure on Hantengu simply by standing there.
This is definitely a formidable enemy.
"Oh dear, Little Tamamo, you'd better slip away quickly, or it will be bad if you get caught."
Tamamo no Mae was originally observing the battle here, thinking of helping Tanjiro and the others at a crucial moment, but now that Mash and the children have all appeared, there is definitely no need for her to help.
She still remembers the good deeds she has done, and it would be terrible if they were discovered now.
She was somewhat relieved that she hadn't rushed to help Tanjiro and the others immediately, otherwise they would have been caught by Mash and the others by now.
Tamamo no Mae tiptoed away slowly, not daring to be careless at all, and was extremely cautious.
I only breathed a sigh of relief when I was quite far away.
A victorious smile spread across his face.
Chapter 37, Section 350: The Ox King Summons Thunder - The Net of Heaven is Vast and Inescapable
Minamoto no Raikō stood to the side, tilting his head to watch Zenitsu Agatsuma.
"He's a child favored by Thor."
The faint sound of lightning emanating from Zenitsu attracted her, which is why Minamoto no Raikō chose to come to Hantengu Zenitsu's place instead of staying with everyone else at Gyokko.
"However, you don't look good enough yet. Let me guide you a bit."
Minamoto no Raikō Yorimitsu drew the long sword hanging at his waist, and wisps of electricity crackled and sparked on the blade.
The four clones of Joy, Anger, Sorrow, Pleasure, and happiness immediately focused all their attention on Minamoto no Raikō, who was a greater threat than Zenitsu Agatsuma.
Wow!
A bolt of lightning struck from the sky, slamming the clone of Xi down to the ground.
"I don't like being looked down upon."
The mere swing of his sword summoned lightning, elevating the threat level of the Hantengu Minamoto no Raikō another level.
Unlike Hantengu, who was on high alert, Minamoto no Raikō always had a smile on his face and looked very relaxed.
Four clones attacked him simultaneously, attempting to use their numerical advantage to encircle and annihilate Minamoto no Raikō.
But it didn't work.
Minamoto no Raikō wielded his long sword, easily protecting himself and even sending the Hantengu flying with each strike.
Facing such an opponent, Hantengu must unleash his full power.
The angry clone grabbed the other clones around it and stuffed them into its mouth.
Minamoto no Raikō was not in a hurry at all. He slowly watched Hantengu crush and absorb the other three clones.
Zohakuten.
This is Hantengu's strongest clone, which absorbed the rage of the other three clones and transformed into another form.
He carries five thunder god taiko drums with the word "hate" engraved on his back, and holds an "S" shaped drum stick. By hitting the drums, he can activate various vampire techniques.
"Thunder God?" Minamoto no Raikō said nostalgically, holding Dojigiri Yasutsuna in his hand.
As the son of the Heavenly King, Minamoto no Raikō naturally felt an immense affinity for the Thunder God.
The Gozu Tenno is the incarnation of the Thunder God, and she can also be considered the son of the Thunder God.
"Thor won't hurt me!"
When the bursts of lightning emitted by Zohakuten striking the Thunder God's Drum reached Minamoto no Raikō, they vanished in an instant.
The lightning was completely unharmed by her; in fact, it subtly coiled around Minamoto no Raikō's body, forming a lightning barrier.
However, this attack angered Minamoto no Raikō, who was attacked with the power of the Thunder God for the first time.
Minamoto no Raikō said calmly, "However, I am very unhappy with you doing this. Oh dear, what should I do?"
She pondered for a moment, then nodded to herself, "Then let me show you the true power of Thor."
Minamoto no Raikō held his swords in both hands, raising them in front of him in an attacking stance.
"Appear, my loyal subjects, my brothers, my armor. As you can see, these are the Four Heavenly Kings..."
"No! This is the messenger of the Gozu Tenno."
"Heh heh... Hahahaha! Nobody, turn to dust!"
The Ox King summons thunder; the net of heaven is vast and inescapable!
Amidst Minamoto no Raikō's laughter, a massive bolt of lightning appeared, covering the sky and omnipresent.
Amidst the boundless lightning, four figures appeared and disappeared.
These were the Four Heavenly Kings under Minamoto no Raikō: Watanabe no Tsuna, Sakata Kintoki, Urabe no Suetake, Usui no Sadamitsu.
At that moment, they appeared as the messengers of the Gozu Tenno and launched a joint attack on Zohakuten.
Such an attack is naturally not something an ordinary person can withstand. Minamoto no Raikō's attacks already have a special damage bonus against demons and monsters, not to mention the sky full of lightning from this Noble Phantasm attack.
Zohakuten couldn't even groan before he was instantly reduced to ashes, leaving behind a pitted landscape that showed how fierce the battle had just taken place.
Yes, it was indeed a terrible ordeal for Zohakuten.
On the other side, Gyokko was trembling with fear. He had seen the overwhelming force coming from Hantengu and was anxious.
But at this moment he had no mind to care about Hantengu, as he was barely able to protect himself.
Surrounded by a group of children, he was caught in a dilemma, unable to move forward or backward.
Unable to fight back or escape, this was truly a death sentence for Gyokko.
"Oh dear, making such a loud noise, that's really tasteless."
Shuten- dōji was somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that Minamoto no Minamoto no Raikō had summoned a sky full of lightning on the other side.
"Why bother with such a minor character? Just watch me."
She stepped forward gently, tilting the wine cup in her hand slightly, and a pool of wine slowly flowed down.
The children immediately took several steps back, knowing the power of the sake in the Shuten -dōji cup—something they absolutely must not touch.
That's a poisonous wine that can even melt your bone marrow.
After being exposed to Shuten's poisoned wine, Gyokko didn't realize anything was wrong before his entire body began to melt like a wax figure.
Silently, like ice and snow meeting the sunlight, they vanished from this world.
Compared to the Minamoto no Raikō's side, Shuten's killing was indeed invisible and intangible, as if nothing had happened and it was already over.
The battle ended, and everyone reunited.
Where is Jack?
Mash frowned; she didn't see Jack in the crowd.
It's normal for Jack to disappear during a battle, and nobody thinks much of it.
But now that the battle is over, she still hasn't been seen, which is very unusual. Mash quickly asked the other children.
"Huh? Jack's not here?"
Gretel looked around, but she really couldn't find Jack.
She immediately became worried and shouted, "Jack, stop playing around! Come out now, we're leaving!"
No one answered. A cold wind blew by, but Jack did not appear.
Now everyone started to get anxious.
"We've lost Jack..."
The children started running around like headless flies, frantically searching everywhere.
Jack wouldn't normally leave without a reason, which made everyone very worried, fearing that something might have happened to her.
Especially when Yuxian is not around, if something happens to Jack, they really don't know how to explain it to Yuxian.
You know, Yuxian has always doted on Jack the most. If Jack were to disappear, who knows what Yuxian would do.
"I found this!"
While Little Jeanne Arc was searching for Jack, she found a little imp hiding in a corner, trembling with fear.
She picked it up and came out.
This is the true form of Hantengu, the Fearful Demon.
The battle just now terrified him; Minamoto no Raikō's overwhelming lightning made him tremble uncontrollably, and he hadn't recovered yet.
That's when Little Jeanne caught her red-handed.
"Tell me! Where did you hide Jack?!"
Gretel thought that Cowardly Demon had hidden Jack and pointed at him fiercely.
Everyone gathered around; the only clue now was the Cowardly Demon in front of them.
A group of people were eyeing him covetously, convinced that Jack's disappearance was related to the Cowardly Demon in front of them.
Section 351, Chapter Thirty-Eight: There Will Be a Way Tomorrow
While a group of people were interrogating the Fearful Demon, Little Jack was secretly following Tamamo no Mae himself.
