Hase stared blankly at the scene before him.
Looking at the gap of more than twenty meters on the roof...
It's important to know that the roof has many wooden beams for support.
Even if you took out the wooden beams and let him kick them, he would probably only break two or three.
And this twenty-odd meters...
There must be dozens of wooden beams!
Hase stiffly turned his head to look at the adult who had just kicked out.
So... is this a pillar?
Teiichi glanced at the flying Clone Demon, then turned to look at Hase.
"Are you alright?"
He remembered that some tiles had just flown onto Hase.
However, since those tiles were only attached to the ghost when it tried to emerge, and were not specifically used for attack, they were not very powerful, so he didn't bother to block them.
However, we should still pay attention to this concern.
Teiichi's words brought Hase back to his senses, and he quickly shook his head.
"No... it's nothing. Apart from a little pain where the blow hit my wound, it's completely fine!"
"That's good!"
Teiichi, then looked away from him.
On the battlefield.
Inosuke also glanced at the gap that was more than twenty meters wide.
However, he wasn't as shocked as Hase.
After all, he had witnessed Teiichi's prowess several times over.
Let's turn our attention back to the Clone Demon.
The Clone Demon was lying on the roof, vomiting blood continuously, clearly severely injured by the kick.
Fortunately, for ghosts, as long as their heads aren't chopped off, such injuries will heal in a while.
Moreover, even if their heads are cut off, only a head severed by Nichirin Blade will cause them to die completely.
Even if you cut off their heads with a regular knife, they can pick them up and reassemble them.
Therefore, the Clone Demon is currently making every effort to mobilize its body's regenerative abilities to quickly heal its injuries.
At the same time, he also looked up and stared at the others.
To prevent the others from taking advantage of his temporary incapacitation to launch a sneak attack.
However, when his gaze swept over the figure in the white-and-blue-patterned haori who had just kicked him, he couldn't help but tremble.
No, I have to run later!
We can't stay here and fight them!
If I stay here, I will absolutely have no chance of survival!!!
The Clone Demon was thinking to itself.
To his relief, for some reason, the other side did not rush up to attack him while he was injured.
but...
That's good! That's good!
Once I recover, with my Blood Demon Art, if I can create multiple clones at the same time, I'll have a good chance of escaping!
Inosuke stood at a distance that was neither too close nor too far from the Clone Demon, his left hand holding the sword gently hanging down, while his right hand held the sword against his shoulder.
He just stood there watching the Clone Demon recover.
Now that we've found the Clone Demon's true form, we also know about its Blood Demon Art.
He wouldn't mind waiting for the other party to recover before fighting them again!
The original body must be stronger than the clone, right?
After waiting for a while, seeing that the other party was still lying on the ground, Inosuke frowned and lightly swung the Nichirin Blade he was carrying on his shoulder in front of him.
"Hey, aren't you done yet?"
The Clone Demon glanced at Inosuke but ignored him.
He has fully recovered. He's just maintaining this posture for a while longer because he hasn't figured out how to run yet.
However, seeing his expression, Inosuke frowned even more deeply and decided not to wait any longer.
He charged towards the Clone Demon, wielding two swords.
Seeing this, the Clone Demon frowned slightly, and no matter how unwilling it was, it had no choice but to go forward.
After all, when it comes to fighting, there's no such thing as it taking two hands to make a commotion.
Clang!
The blade and claws clashed again.
Feeling the force that was much heavier than the previous clone, Inosuke's lips curled into a wide smile.
"Haha, that's right, that's it! Come on!"
With that, Inosuke brandished his twin swords and began slashing wildly at the Clone Demon.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!...
The blades and claws clashed and echoed wildly.
At one moment, the Clone Demon's body trembled slightly.
Then, it was as if a phantom appeared around him.
The phantom covered the Clone Demon's body, swaying constantly with the Clone Demon's movements.
However, the phantom's movements are slower Clone Demon's main body, making it appear like an afterimage.
The phantom swayed slightly on the Clone Demon's body a few times, then suddenly detached itself and solidified into a physical form.
The newly formed clone immediately moved towards Inosuke.
Following that, the Clone Demon repeated the process, creating three more clones in succession.
Five figures quickly appeared on the rooftop, surrounding Inosuke.
In the distance, Teiichi's eyes opened and closed slightly, his pupils, as dark as night, silently watching the battlefield.
Will the creation of clones cause a decrease in the original body's power?
Moreover, the clone may only possess 60-70% of the original's strength.
I wonder how much potential it has for growth? If it can grow stronger along with the demon's own strength, that would be good.
Otherwise, at the same level later on, this Blood Demon Art won't be very useful.
It's only good for bullying noobs!
Hmm... Just like the original Clone Demon, you could create clones one by one to rush out and wear down or lure others!
However, judging from its current performance, this Blood Demon Art is not very applicable at higher levels.
Let alone having only 60-70% of his strength, even if he had 70-80% of his strength, a clone like Kokushibo would only be killed with a Teiichi strike by Dingyi.
and...
Teiichi's gaze lingered briefly on the Clone Demon form.
Is this a deliberate attempt to control one's power?
Teiichi moment and quickly realized that this was a scheme to pass off inferior goods as superior ones?
Clang!
The Nichirin Blade struck Oni Claw once more.
Just as Inosuke was about to continue his attack, all the demons that had been surrounding him suddenly turned and ran away.
Inosuke pushed off with his foot, intending to give chase.
However, he had only taken one step when he involuntarily stopped.
He turned his head and looked around, seeing the five figures running in different directions, and for a moment he didn't know which one he should chase.
At first, he knew which one was the original, but as the battle dragged on...
When you're being besieged, how can you guarantee that the other party will always be in your sight?
Therefore, he had long since lost track of the Clone Demon form.
"Hateful!!"
Inosuke muttered a curse under his breath, then could only turn away helplessly.
Seeing Inosuke looking at him, Teiichi smiled slightly, knowing exactly what the other meant, and pointed to his left.
Without a second thought, Inosuke quickly ran towards that direction.
" Beast Breathing - Eighth Form - Explosive Rush!"
Whoosh--!
A flash of light, and a severed head flew into the air.
