Izou kept his eyes closed the whole time, while Akame and Tatsumi looked at the black sword—it was held by no one, just a weapon like a savior's blade, fighting Izou alone.
Izou thought that it was a strong man of immense strength who was wielding the long sword and launching a fierce attack at him with all his might.
Izou hadn't witnessed the power and explosiveness of this chop before, not even back then, when his opponent was arguably the Japan man in Izou.
The black blade gradually extended its shape from both above and below, finally contorting and twisting into a humanoid form in place.
Later, the humanoid shape changed from an empty black without any reflection to its true color, and the appearance of a boy appeared before Akame and Tatsumi.
The moment Akame saw this man, she was utterly astonished, while Tatsumi felt his most primal fear surface.
" Lin Feng..."
Crimson eyes, a familiar, shrunken shadow—this was undoubtedly the newly appointed Imperial General Lin Feng.
Lin Feng once effortlessly dealt with the Imperial Guard captain Ogre, a task that should have been handled by Akame, and helped Tatsumi instantly kill the powerful Zank the Executioner.
Subsequently, he easily defeated Tatsumi in the dueling tournament held by Esdeath, and his strength made the entire Night Raid squad quite uneasy.
However, this man became the Empire's Grand General, standing on the opposite side of the Night Raid.
According to Najenda, Lin Feng is now joining forces with the ' Wild Hunt ' to wipe out the Night Raid Force. However, the Night Raid Force calculated that Lin Feng would not appear at this time, so they took care of the elite members of the Wild Hunt on their own first.
Seeing Lin Feng appear now, both Akame and Tatsumi felt deeply uneasy.
Once this man makes a move, the ' Night Raid ' unit might not be completely wiped out, but its chances of survival are slim.
Although she didn't know why Lin Feng had helped Tatsumi block Izou's attack, Akame still signaled to Tatsumi to stay alert.
"Don't be so tense. I'm going to kill these beasts, it has nothing to do with you."
Lin Feng turned to Akame and Tatsumi, who were slightly wary, and then looked in Izou's direction. Unexpectedly Izou revealed a deep smile.
"Heh... I recognize that voice. It's a young yet shrewd one. It must be the new Imperial General. To possess such power at such a young age, is it the secret technique of your Western founding emperor?"
"I don't understand, but one of us has to die."
Lin Feng said coldly, then poured the blood energy of ' Alucard ' into ' Casull ' in his left hand and ' Jackal ' in his right.
Izou stood at a distance, placing his hands on the hilt of his sword, assuming the same iaido stance he had just used.
This Izou's most prized sword technique, and against Lin Feng, instinct told him he couldn't hold back.
"Oh--!"
Lin Feng swiftly drew Casull from his left hand, pulled the trigger, and fired four bullets in quick succession. Almost all four bullets carried a strong blood energy impact, and each bullet had an exaggerated attack range like Mine's Pumpkin Cannon.
Based on the sound of the wind, Izou had already determined that Lin Feng had indeed drawn his gun, and that the type of gun was far different from ordinary silver bullet guns, so it should not be underestimated.
Four bullets flew out at lightning speed, arriving right in front of Izou the blink of an eye.
Izou then used his sword to block three bullets with remarkable precision, before unleashing a powerful straight slash that cleaved the fourth bullet in two.
"Indeed, he is a martial artist..."
Lin Feng couldn't help but praise Izou's superb swordsmanship; among swordsmen, Izou was the strongest Lin Feng had ever seen.
However, Izou was now covered in blood as he incredulously sniffed at the barely perceptible fluctuations in the air.
"You... you really are a sorcerer?"
"It's just a simple shockwave."
Even those familiar with bullet shooting find it difficult to withstand the impact of the blood energy surrounding the bullet, and this enchantment effect is Lin Feng's unique secret technique.
'I can't believe that after taking so many hits from Casull, he only suffered superficial injuries. This man's parries were incredibly precise...'
Izou was enraged. In his mind, the best way to win against such an attack from an unknown source was to strike first.
However, what happened next was unbelievable.
Akame and Tatsumi both looked behind Izou in surprise, while Izou himself seemed completely unaware of what was happening.
Izou a flash, Yizang appeared close to Lin Feng, about to use a Shinsai School sword technique to tear Lin Feng's body to pieces, when he was pressed to the ground by an irresistible force.
The force was so immense that Izou completely immobilized, whereas in the past he could have easily dodged such a reckless attack.
"What?! How could it be behind my back? No one in this world can completely conceal their presence. How did they get close to me...?"
Lin Feng smiled faintly, looked at the girl who was suppressing him from Izou, and slowly said,
"This is truly a useful chess piece."
That girl was Dotya.
During the rescue of Najenda, Lin Feng was well aware of the weaknesses of biological Teigu, and after confirming her Bloodsucking identity, he quickly put the nearly 100-year-old girl to death.
Now, Dotya has also become a member of Lin Feng's 'Zero Type: River of Death ', and can be summoned by Lin Feng Lin Feng at will to fight for him.
"Isn't that the girl from ' Wild Hunt '? What's she doing here?"
Why would he attack Izou? Have they all betrayed him?
Tatsumi and Akame were completely baffled by the current situation, while Izou was still shocked as to why he couldn't sense Dotya's presence.
"This power is indeed Dotya's, but I'm all too familiar with that little girl's aura, how could it be..."
"Let me tell you, you are— Izou, right?"
Lin Feng said slowly,
"You're so arrogant that you fight without opening your eyes, but not everyone has a breath. For example—the dead, they are things you can't even sense."
Lin Feng spoke with complete ease, while the strange force that Dotya had wrapped around Izou's arm grew stronger and stronger, almost breaking Izou's arm.
The undead's attack was almost beyond Lin Feng's control. Driven by instinct, Dotya, dressed in a pretty dress, plunged her fangs into Izou's neck like a real Bloodsucking.
It can be said that it was penetrated effortlessly, followed by a hearty sucking.
As blood continued to be exchanged in his throat, Izou's body grew weaker and weaker, until he was no longer able to let out a mournful howl filled with resentment.
