Build the Traveler Alliance from scratch

"Qiang! Qiang! Qiang!"

The sharp long knife danced into an invisible phantom, continuously slashing at the figure below the stone steps with a powerful attack like a gust of wind and rain.

But Lu Bu responded with ease, swinging the Eight-sided Han Sword in his hand steadily, and every move and every move was full of traces of the sword's routine.

"……How can this be?!"

Sasaki Kojiro was shocked, but still remained calm.

Soon, the two people who fought fiercely separated again.

Emiya Shirou looked at the two of them with furrowed brows, and couldn't help but ask: "Is Sasaki Kojiro's sword skills really so vulnerable to Rider?"

"Don't be deceived by him." Saber shook her head and said with a complicated expression, "What is powerful is not the sword skills, but Rider himself. With his martial arts attainments that have reached the realm of transformation, even if he speaks plainly, he still contains great power. .”

"I see……"

Emiya Shirou suddenly realized.

Sasaki Kojiro suddenly sighed, clenched the katana in his hand, and said solemnly: "I understand what the general means. In this case, let's decide the outcome with one move!"

"I have a sword skill that I mastered when I accidentally wanted to kill Feiyan. Although it is not a powerful move, I am still quite confident. General, please give it a try..."

Lu Bu gently swung the Han sword and said calmly: "Good."

Sasaki Kojiro's expression condensed, and a faint blue-purple light flashed on the long knife in his hand.

"Secret Sword——"

"Yan is back!"

In an instant, three dazzling sword lights suddenly lit up, blooming simultaneously in a way that humans could not understand, and struck Lu Bu's chest, throat and eyebrows respectively.

This is a superb sword skill that Sasaki Kojiro inadvertently realized when he slashed Feiyan with his sword.

It can dodge a sword from the real world, and then overlap two swords completely at the same time regardless of the concepts of time and space, resulting in simultaneous slashes from three directions.

This is a 'multi-dimensional twisting phenomenon' that transcends factors such as speed, sophistication, and false attacks. It is the realm of God that mortals cannot touch!

Feeling the spatial fluctuations coming from the front, Deng Yougang couldn't help but sigh.

"It's actually a space sword skill... Isn't this a bit cheating?"

"Fengxian, let me do it instead!"

"No!" Lu Bu refused, "I can handle it!"

In an instant, black and red air burst out from Lu Bu's body, and the eight-sided Han sword in his hand made a strange arc in front of him. It actually collided with the long sword three times in an instant, blocking all three swords that were struck at the same time. down.

The sound of three gold and iron clashes sounded at the same time, and Lu Bu took a step forward and penetrated Sasaki Kojiro's chest.

"Pfft——"

The blade penetrated the flesh and blood spilled out.

Sasaki Kojiro lowered his head in confusion, looking at the Eight-sided Han Sword with blood dripping from his chest.

"... He was actually blocked. It's indeed Lu Fengxian!"

"Pfft——"

Lu Bu pulled out his long sword and threw the blood on the sword to the ground. He looked at Sasaki Kojiro with a look of emotion on his face and said calmly: "Your sword is indeed amazing. You can never compete with it based on the sword skills of a certain family." anti."

"But in the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the Central Plains, a certain person is far from being a representative of kendo."

"In this regard, General Huben Wang Yue is truly the best in the world!"

"When I came to Beijing, I fought with him. In terms of fists, kicks and sword skills, I was no match for him."

"The sword that defeated you is called Youlong. It was created by Wang Yue. He could use this move to fight ten martial arts masters at the same time. Although you can kill three swords at the same time, it is far from Youlong's limit. …”

"So that's it." Sasaki Kojiro said with a sudden look on his face, and then sighed, "What an incredible swordsmanship. I hope that I will be lucky enough to meet Grandmaster Wang Yue in the future..."

The words with a hint of sadness spread, and Sasaki Kojiro's figure turned into countless stars and disappeared in the sky.

Lu Bu put away the Eight-sided Han Sword in his hand, stepped forward without looking back, and said, "Let's go to Liudong Temple!"

Everyone looked at the place where Sasaki Kojiro disappeared and sighed, then immediately took steps to follow Lu Bu's pace.

Soon, everyone entered Liudong Temple, but the temple was empty, and no one could be seen.

Emiya Shirou had some ominous premonitions, so he quickly went to the house where the monk lived, and sure enough he found the sleeping and unconscious monk.

After measuring the breath of several monks, Shirou Emiya couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, they are all just drowsy..."

Tong Shen broke off the head of the man in the corner and said thoughtfully: "Come here, you guys, and see if this is Liudong Yichen?"

Emiya Shirou quickly ran over, took a closer look, and suddenly said in surprise: "It's just Issei, he's not dead!"

Tohsaka Rin nodded and said: "That means that Yanudou-san is not Caster's master...wait, what are you doing?!"

Tohsaka Rin's eyes widened and his face turned red as he looked at Shirou Emiya who was pulling out a pair of clothes from Ryudou.

Tong Shen smiled and said: "I am confirming the identity of classmate Liu Dong!"

Emiya Shirou replied without raising his head: "Yes, Tohsaka-san said, right? Command Seals will appear on all Masters' bodies. Isn't this the simplest and fastest way to confirm?"

"..."

Tohsaka Rin was slightly startled, and had to admit that the straight relationship between the two did make sense.

"...Fortunately, there is no Command Seal."

Emiya Shirou breathed a sigh of relief and put the clothes he had taken off on Yanagi Kazunari again.

Tohsaka Rin sighed: "Ryuudou-san is not the master. This is indeed good news. However, how should we determine the identity of the master of Ryudou Temple now? There are so many monks in Ryudou Temple, so we can't reveal them all." Just take a look?"

Emiya Shirou frowned and said, "Why not?"

Tohsaka Rin's face turned slightly red. He hesitated for a while, then stamped his feet and said, "Then you can pick them off one by one. I'll go outside and look for other clues!"

Just when Tohsaka Rin was about to turn around and leave, Tong Shen suddenly let out an exclamation.

Tohsaka Rin paused for a moment, then quickly turned around and said, "What did you find?"

"No...nothing..."

Tong Shen turned his back to Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou, looking at the man on the bed with a strange expression.

The man was wearing white casual clothes, with his hands behind his head and his legs crossed. He didn't look like he was in a coma, but more like he was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and concentrating.

Of course, what shocked Tong Shen was not the man's posture, but the familiar and handsome face.

"Isn't this the antique dealer who sold me three holy relics in China?"

"...Why is he here?"

Tong Shen looked weird and surprised.

Lu Bu, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and whispered in his heart: "Brother Deng... why is that guy here?"

"Who knows?" Deng Yougang looked at the face belonging to Lin Zhongtian on the bed and said helplessly, "Maybe the boss feels that watching us fight is not enough, so he wants to end it himself..."

"..." Lu Bu was silent for a while and asked in a low voice, "What should I do?"

Deng Yougang said without hesitation: "Leave him alone and let him play by himself!"

Lu Bu nodded and stood silent behind Tong Shen.

At the same time, Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou also came to Tong Shen.

Looking at the unfamiliar handsome face on the bed, Emiya Shirou frowned and said, "He is not a monk from Ryudou Temple. He is probably a pilgrim or something?"

Tohsaka Rin glanced at Tong Shen's face and asked, "Why, does Mr. Tong know him?"

Tong Shen came back to his senses and nodded hesitantly.

"We know each other..."

Tong Shen frowned and looked at the young man on the bed. He couldn't figure out why this guy was here.

Could it be that after he called the police, the other party evaded police pursuit, smuggled out of the country, and came to Japan?

...But why is it Fuyuki City?

If it was a few days ago, Tong Shen would definitely not have thought much about it.

But now, he has summoned Lu Bu with the bones of the red rabbit horse, so it is clear that the things sold by the antique dealer in front of him should be real, and his identity cannot be just a tomb robber and an antique dealer. So simple……

"Could it be that he is Caster's master?"

Tong Shen stared at Lin Zhongtian with suspicion, thinking about whether to take off his clothes and see if he had any command spells on him.

Lu Bu glanced at Tong Shen's face and couldn't help but remind him: "I advise you not to offend him..."

"Oh?" Tong Shen suddenly turned his head and looked at Lu Bu with bright eyes, "Why?"

Lu Bu's expression froze slightly, then he shook his head and said, "I just noticed that there seemed to be some danger in this person that could affect his whole body, so he gave a warning."

"……Yeah?"

Tong Shen looked suspicious.

Rin Tosaka came from behind, waved his hands and said, "Okay, since he is just an ordinary person, let's leave him alone. Let's find Caster and her Master hidden in Ryudou Temple first!"

Emiya Shirou nodded in agreement.

At this moment, a huge roar suddenly came from outside the house.

Tohsaka Rin looked stern and said quickly: "Archer has found her!"

The three of them looked at each other, quickly took steps, and ran out of the house.

Lu Bu was a little behind. After everyone left, he thought about it, silently picked up the quilt, and covered Lin Zhongtian thoughtfully.

...It’s getting cold, boss, don’t freeze!

Lin Zhongtian opened his slightly narrowed right eye, glanced at Lu Bu in front of him, raised his hand and pointed at the corner, then closed his eyes again, and the old god continued to maintain his original posture on the ground.

Lu Bu was slightly startled and turned towards the corner, when he saw a Fang Tian painted halberd that was exactly the same as the weapon he was holding.

This is... the new Noble Phantasm brought by the boss?

Lu Bu's heart moved, and then at Deng Yougang's urging, he strode over and grabbed the thick-armed halberd pole there.

In an instant, information flooded into my mind.

Lu Bu closed his eyes for a while to digest, and then opened his eyes with a cheerful smile on his face.

Sure enough, the licking was not in vain!

With this treasure in hand, who among the other heroic spirits can be his opponent?
