Tokugawa Ishiki was silent for a while, and then raised a new question:

"My mother...Akasaka Mimen...What's wrong with it..."

“…”

Tianzhangyuan did not answer.

In fact, her silence is equal to the answer.

Tokugawa Ishimaki gritted his teeth, his expression slightly dim.

Just as Tian Zhangyuan was about to say something to cheer him up, her expression suddenly changed.

The other person who also changed his face was Elordi on the side.

The next moment, they turned their heads back regardless of order - a young man in big armor suddenly broke into their sight.

When the boy Shuitun appeared, Tianzhangyuan and Elorti were both frightened.

To describe the word "blood all over" seems too light and inappropriate.

There is no place on his body that is bloodless!

Needless to say, the armor on his body was stained with blood and could not tell the original color.

The hair is covered with blood and coagulated into balls and pieces.

The exposed skin of the face, wrists, etc. was also covered with blood, as if wearing a thick mask, it was difficult to recognize the specific shape of the facial features.

The boy Shuitun turned his eyes woodenly and glanced at all the scenes where his eyes could reach.

Soon, his eyes firmly locked in Tokugawa Ishiki.

At the moment when he discovered Tokugawa Ishimatsu, he was slightly stunned at first, and then he reacted instinctively and rushed forward without hesitation!

His speed is extremely fast!

In just a blink of an eye, he narrowed the distance several meters in one breath!

Elorti had never seen the boy Shuitun, nor had he fought with him.

But at just a glance she could see: This person is definitely not an ordinary person! He is definitely not an opponent she can deal with!

In an instant, a strong fear arose.

Although the timidity in his heart was so strong, the first thought that came to his mind at this moment was "I want to fight him! I want to stop him!".

To be strange, she has no deep friendship with Tokugawa Ishishi and Tenzhangyuan, and she is not their retainer, so she has no reason to protect the mother and son.

But she just wanted to stay in the palace and buy time for the mother and son to escape.

It has nothing to do with friendship.

She just simply felt that she could not let the mother and son die here!

Without saying a word, she pulled out Yamato Shuan Ding from her waist and said aloud:

"Your Highness Tianzhangyuan, go quickly! I'll stop him!"

Tianzhangyuan was stunned, and then said quickly in a hurry:

"Stop talking stupid things! You can't stop him!"

Elorti replied without hesitation:

"I know! Although I am not his opponent, I can buy some time more or less! If we don't try to do anything, we will be caught up soon!"

What she said was not false.

Shuitun boy was faster than them.

If this continues, at most, his blade will fall on them in three minutes.

Tianzhangyuan was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to refute Elorti.

Elorti said nothing badly.

Letting her stay behind the palace and buy them time to escape is undoubtedly the best solution at the moment.

However... however... let a little girl face a strong enemy alone... she really can't make such cruelty!

Fortunately, at this moment when they were at a loss and gradually felt desperate, a new change - a change that was beneficial to them - suddenly came!

Whoosh!

A sound of wind suddenly rang behind the boy Shuitun.

The boy Shuitun's pupils shrank slightly, and subconsciously flashed to the right with a click, and a knife was inserted into the position where he was just standing.

Not far behind him, Chiba Eijiro suddenly appeared!

Chiba Eijiro bit Zhenyue Changguang in his mouth and repeatedly threw out the knife in his hand.

These knives were picked up by him from the corpses all over the ground while chasing Shuitun Boy.

Because he thought it could come in handy, he picked up more than twenty knives in one breath - it was really useful to carve it.

He used these knives as darts and threw them one by one at Shuitun Boy.

Although it cannot hurt the other party, it can effectively affect its movements and stop its pace!

Chiba Eijiro took the opportunity to increase his speed.

After narrowing the distance of ten steps, he threw away the knife that Shang Wei was thrown out in his arms, took off the long moonlight from his mouth, and then jumped up like a dry land, jumping towards the boy Shuitun.

He raised the knife above his head and slashed hard at the head of the boy Shuitun with the help of the potential energy of his falling.

The boy Shuitun has no time to chase Tokugawa Ishiki, so he has to stop and lift his knife to take over Chiba Eijiro's slash—

clang!!

With this huge impact, even Elorti and others who were several meters away could not help but feel ear pain.

The two looked directly at each other through the two swords that were facing each other.

Chiba Eijiro said lightly:

"I finally caught up with you, you can run away."

The boy Shuitun said in a deep voice:

“'Edo Strongest' Chiba Eijiro…”

Chiba Eijiro responded slowly:

"I have said similar things many times. I'm no longer the 'Edo strongest'."

The moment he finished speaking, he exerted force with his arms and bounced off the Shuitun Boy's knife.

There was no greetings, no red tape such as reporting common names and surnames.

The two directly started a fierce showdown!
