Because Sakyo Yukiya and Sakyo Noya had suddenly turned against each other, Uchiha Hikaru was able to exploit an opening. Since the two had already become bitter enemies, Hikaru and Bulma relaxed their guard a little for the time being.
At that moment, Uchiha Hikaru turned slightly toward Bulma and said in a low voice:
"Now that they're fighting among themselves, this is the perfect opportunity for us to make the most of our time. If they both end up badly wounded, that would definitely be good news for us. Even if they don't both go down, and one defeats the other, we can simply wait quietly for their battle to end, then wipe out the remaining one in a single stroke."
After hearing him, Bulma nodded slightly, turned to Uchiha Hikaru, and said:
"Your idea is good, but you need to stay alert at all times. The children traveling with us aren't as strong as you are. We can't let those guys harm them."
Uchiha Hikaru nodded. Then he turned to look at Qiqi. Qiqi was the Bull Demon King's daughter, and she had originally come along so he could train her. He had not expected this crisis to arise, so he had to protect Qiqi first.
Thus, while observing Sakyo Noya and Sakyo Yukiya's battle, he quietly made his way toward Qiqi.
When he reached her, he saw that Qiqi was still holding a weapon, brandishing it at Sakyo Noya and Sakyo Yukiya.
Uchiha Hikaru hurried to her side and pressed down her hand, afraid that her movements would draw the attention of the two men. If they suddenly turned on Qiqi and hurt her, Hikaru felt that if they joined forces, he might not necessarily be able to defeat them.
Qiqi looked at her teacher in confusion.
