"It's Sesshomaru of the Dog Tribe!"
Someone cried out in alarm, recognizing the newcomer.
The King of the Underworld smiled faintly and gave a slight nod at Sesshomaru's arrival, seeing through his intentions.
They were both enemies and friends.
Sesshomaru had appeared at this moment to stop these humans from harming the King of the Underworld.
Because, in Sesshomaru's eyes, only he was entitled to defeat the King of the Underworld.
"Ha ha ha! Tōga's dog of a son has finally appeared! Sesshomaru, your father defeated me all those years ago. Today, you'll pay for it!"
Another presence with dense demonic energy came hurtling from the horizon. Brimming with killing intent and wild laughter, he unleashed a perfectly formed, pitch-black Netherworld Path straight at Sesshomaru.
The humans stared blankly, never expecting the yokai to start fighting among themselves at a time like this.
"A perfectly formed Netherworld Path! Who are you?"
Sesshomaru demanded coldly. He unleashed a brilliant sword beam whose star-shattering power obliterated the incoming Netherworld Path.
"Shinigami Oni! Remember my name, and don't forget it when you go down to join that old dog of yours!"
Seething with killing intent, Shinigami Oni raised his scepter and unleashed three or four perfectly formed Netherworld Paths.
"So it's you. Since you survived, I'll send you to your grave for good today!"
Sesshomaru flickered through the air, closing in on Shinigami Oni.
It seems this battle has drawn out even Shinigami Oni, who hid for years. Those others probably won't be able to hold back either!
The thought flashed through the King of the Underworld's mind as he slew a priestess. Wounds had appeared on his body as well.
After all, these elite human fighters were far from weak, and they were all fighting to the death, unleashing unprecedented power.
Even
