() "Crystal Release - Shuriken Ranbu." As soon as Ito Cheng arrived at the battle site, Guren's voice immediately reached his ears and shouted.

"The girl's methods are really weird, but it's impossible to defeat me based on this alone." At this time, at one end of the corridor, the short old man who had been to the scene was standing there with a leisurely look on his face. Guren, who was about the same height as him and was fighting with twelve strange shikigami transformed according to the twelve zodiac signs, said in a coquettish manner.

"Huh, Crystal Release - The Art of God's Crossing." Seeing that his shuriken dance was blocked by the twelve shikigami with their own weapons, but failed to cause much damage to them, and at the same time he was dissatisfied with the old man's words. Honglian snorted coldly, quickly formed a seal with his hands, and then slammed it on the ground.

Immediately, a bunch of messy blue crystal spikes quickly rose from in front of Honglian, and quickly sprinted towards the twelve shikigami standing in the corridor and the old man guarding them behind them.

The corridor of the Ministry of Environment's office building is not very wide, just wide enough for three people to walk side by side. Therefore, Guren's dense crystal pillar thrusts basically occupied the entire corridor as soon as they appeared, leaving the twelve shikigami with nowhere to go. Even if the three shikigami, the rat, the rabbit, the tiger, and the snake, use their own means to escape from the gaps in the crystal pillars, the damage will be serious.

However, shikigami are not living things after all. Even if they are tied into a sieve, as long as the core is not destroyed, they will basically not die. Therefore, slightly larger shikigami like cows, horses, pigs, and sheep can only be inserted into On the crystal, it did not turn into smoke and disappear.

"Oh, how could you deal such a heavy blow to the old man." The old man, who was also on the attack route of Jingzhu, said in a teasing tone. He immediately jumped back, and at the same time took out several talismans with his withered palms and spread them out in front of him with shaking hands. In an instant, a large shield made of talisman appeared in front of the old man, completely blocking Honglian's crystal pillar.

"Bang!" The collision between the two made a dull sound, echoing in the corridor.

Guren ignored the old man. After seeing that the attack was blocked, he squatted on the ground and quickly formed seals with his hands. Then he shouted to the rat and rabbit shikigami who were about to rush in front of him, "Crystal Release-Crystal Pentagram Prison."

As Guren finished speaking, a ball of red light suddenly lit up at the feet of the mouse and rabbit shikigami, and then suddenly rose up, wrapping the mouse and rabbit shikigami. And in the next second, it solidified directly into a pink transparent crystal, sealing the two shikigami inside.

"Broken." At this time, Honglian's handprint changed and he shouted in a low voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, long and thin cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal that sealed the mouse and rabbit shikigami, and then shattered into countless crystal fragments with a crisp sound, and fell to the ground with a "crackling" sound.

Then Guren didn't look at the two shikigami who had already transformed into talismans and died in the process of crystal shattering. Directly activate the Crystal Release - Jade Crystal Sword to form a half-moon-shaped knife on the arm, and use physical skills to fight the tiger and snake-like shikigami that rush over.

After all, Guren was a ninja who had been with Orochimaru. Although he had not broken through to jounin when he was taken away by Ito Cheng, his combat experience of surviving in an environment like Oto Ninja Village where he could die at any moment was not enough. , not to mention that after practicing in the Rubik's Cube world for such a long time, not only has his strength broken through to the level of jounin. He even learned some messy fighting skills, and his overall strength is higher than Guren in the original work. Therefore, he is not inferior at all to a shikigami who doesn't know what pain and fear are. , played well.

"It seems that this old man is the person in charge of the Ministry of Environment's Hokkaido distribution." Ito Cheng, who had been watching the fight between the two, secretly said, and then stretched out his hand to press on the wall beside him. Use alchemy to attack the old man.

I saw a pointed stone pillar suddenly appearing on the wall beside and above the old man, and quickly stabbed towards the old man's body.

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this. Shaking his hands again, he threw out dozens of talisman papers, causing him to transform into a yellow scarf warrior with only the upper body and wearing iron armor in front of him. The warrior body resisted the attack of the stone pillar with force.

Then the talisman paper in the old man's hand shook again, and a strange talisman paper puppet with ridiculously thick arms but a body the size of a short old man appeared in front of him, waving his fists and striking around.

Under the impact of those weird fists, whether it was the crystal summoned by the Red Lotus Crystal Escape or the stone pillars that kept popping up on the surrounding walls, they all shattered like fragile eggs.

A look of surprise appeared on Ito Cheng's face when he saw this. Branches as thick as Ren's arms suddenly burst out from the surrounding walls, intertwined into a network of trees, blocked around the old man, and grew a large number of thorns to bind the old man.

"Master He Fang, why don't you show up and see me." The old man was stunned when he saw the branches appeared, and immediately shouted loudly.

"Are you looking for me?" As soon as the old man finished speaking, a wooden figure slowly emerged from a relatively thick branch around him, and then stretched out the upper half of his body to look like Ito Cheng. asked the old man.

Looking at Ito Cheng's appearance, the old man couldn't help but frown. He secretly controlled the two puppets to return to his side and asked, "I don't know why you want to attack the Hokkaido branch of the Ministry of Environment."

"Why...if you really want to say it, it's probably for military training." Ito Cheng tilted his head slightly and said as if thinking.

"Training troops." The old man frowned again when he heard this. He turned around and glanced at Guren, who had already dealt with the tiger shikigami and was fighting with the snake shikigami, and repeated with a glance.

"That's it." Ito Cheng chuckled.

"Don't you know that our Tsuchimikado clan is behind the Ministry of Environment?" the old man said with a threatening tone in his words.

"I know." Ito Cheng said with a slight smile, "But it doesn't matter to me whether it is Tsuchimikado or not. As long as there is what I need, I can also break into the Japanese Emperor's Palace."

"It seems we have nothing to talk about anymore." The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Ito Cheng and said.

Hearing this, Ito Cheng smiled softly and controlled his body to retract into the branches.

"Where to go." The old man shouted when he saw this, and controlled the giant fist puppet to punch the branch where Ito Cheng was.

But the obstruction that the old man expected did not appear at all. The giant fist puppet's fist landed firmly on the branch, smashing Ito Cheng into several pieces together with the branch, which had not yet completely retracted into the branch.

But when the old man controlled the giant fist puppet to attack the branches, a large number of new branches wrapped around him from all directions. Although the old man tried his best to control the armor puppet to defend, he still couldn't withstand more and more branches, and was finally entangled by dozens of people. A branch was tightly wrapped inside.

At this time, Ito Cheng's figure suddenly appeared above the old man's head. He formed seals with his hands, moved his cheeks and spit out a large ball of fire emitting blazing heat at the branches wrapped around the old man.

"Fire Release - the art of fireball."

The huge fireball directly ignited the branches and burned fiercely inside.

After the initial pause, the giant fist puppet on the side was immediately controlled by the old man, swinging his fists and hitting the burning branches.

Seeing this, Ito Cheng turned over and fell from the top of the wall. He quickly rushed to the giant fist puppet with his feet. His hands seemed to be weak and gently pressed against the chest of the giant fist puppet. He used the power in his body to strike.

"Double wrapped palms."

Powerful energy instantly spurted out from Ito Cheng's two palms, like two high-pressure air guns, pushing the giant fist puppet's body violently away, smashing through the broken branches, and hitting the wall at the end of the corridor.

"Boom!" A loud noise sounded immediately, a large number of crack marks appeared on the wall behind the giant fist puppet, and some small soil and gravel fell from the cracked gaps.

Immediately afterwards, Ito Nari snapped his fingers, and a small cluster of flames instantly appeared between his fingers. Ito Nari shook his hand and threw it towards the giant fist puppet. In an instant, the small flames turned into a long flame dragon, which instantly bombarded the surface of the giant fist puppet's body.

"Boom!" Another loud noise came, and a blazing ball of high-temperature fire appeared immediately, wrapping around the giant fist puppet and burning blazingly.

"Papa papa ~" At this time, traces of cracks suddenly appeared on the surface of the crystals formed by the Red Lotus Crystal Escape, and then exploded in vain, breaking into a pile of crystal debris and falling "crackling" on the ground.

"Sir." Then Guren, who was walking slowly on the crystal slag, came to Ito Cheng's side and shouted in a low voice.

"Use the crystal pentagram against this fireball." Ito Cheng pointed at the group of branches in front of him that was entangled with the old man and the armored puppet, and the outside was still burning.

"Yes." Guren agreed, and then formed a ninjutsu mark with his hands and activated Crystal Release - Crystal Pentagram.

Immediately, a huge pink transparent crystal column appeared outside the branch, sealing the burning branch and the flames on the branch together with the old man inside, standing in place like an ice sculpture.

"Destroyed." Ito Cheng said quietly.

Honglian didn't say anything when he heard this. He changed his handprints and shouted, "Broken."

As soon as the words fell, a large number of crack marks appeared on the surface of the huge crystal pillar, which spread to the whole body of the crystal at an extremely fast speed, and then shattered into countless fragments with a crisp "click" sound and scattered on the ground.

"Let's go see the others." After absorbing the world power and soul fragments that the old man emitted when he died, Ito Cheng said.

Then Ito Cheng and Guren left the fighting floor and began to move around. At this time, the battle in the building was almost over. There were corpses of dead environmental members everywhere, as well as our own personnel treating the wounded and checking for survivors.

Seeing this, Ito Cheng directly sent the injured members back to the Rubik's Cube World for treatment, and he continued to move around the building with the intact members until all his people were gathered in one place.
