ACSP: Chapter 151: Collecting the Nine Tailed Beasts will grant power that transcends the Super Kage level!
Matsushita Goshige dragged his heavy steps, one by one, gradually approaching Zhang Xiaolin.
Although he was also seriously injured at this time, a crazed smile still overflowed on his face.
Tailed Beast power—this was a high-level item comparable to Kage-level combat strength!
Moreover, this kind of power could be stacked.
Rumor had it that by gathering the power of all nine Tailed Beasts, one could obtain strength equal to or even transcending that of a Super Kage.
"Don't even think about taking the Tailed Beast power from her..."
Just as Matsushita Goshige approached Zhang Xiaolin, City Lord Li Hongfei suddenly flashed out, clutching his wound and blocking his path.
"You think you can stop me?"
Matsushita Goshige snorted coldly and continued walking toward Zhang Xiaolin.
He could see that City Lord Li Hongfei was also seriously injured at this moment.
Since everyone was injured, who would be afraid of whom?
Seeing that he couldn't stop the opponent.
City Lord Li Hongfei could only quickly form hand seals.
He held his hands across his chest in the gesture for the Mind Disturbance Technique.
However, he did not activate the technique immediately.
Instead, he constantly scanned the surroundings with a vigilant gaze.
Because he could sense that the guy with the broadsword from before hadn't gone far.
If he used the Mind Disturbance Technique now to control the Dongdao Contractor in front of him.
The other person would definitely take the opportunity to strike.
At that time, not only would he be killed, but Zhang Xiaolin would also certainly not escape this fate.
His There is only one chance to make a move..
So it had to be used at the most critical moment.
"Here it comes."
Suddenly.
City Lord Li Hongfei's gaze narrowed, and he suddenly looked behind Matsushita Goshige.
"—Whoosh!"
Almost as soon as he shifted his gaze there.
A silver-haired man also flickered out like a ghost and landed in that spot.
The man was seen carrying a large blade on one shoulder, while his other hand held an unconscious man.
City Lord Li Hongfei also recognized that man.
It was Tang Si from Zhang Xiaolin's team.
"Goshige-kun, your injuries are not light; you'd better hurry up and recover first."
Inoue Gessui tossed the unconscious Tang Si in front of Matsushita Goshige, speaking with a look of concern.
"Thanks, Gessui-kun."
Matsushita Goshige reached out and pressed his hand onto Tang Si without hesitation.
In the next second.
Tang Si's body actually began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Meanwhile, the injuries on Matsushita Goshige's body began to recover at an astonishing speed.
This was a divine recovery skill inherent to his contracted character Jugo, named [Cellular Regeneration Absorption]!
This technique allows him to absorb the flesh and cells of others to transform them into his own, allowing an injured body to recover at an ultra-fast speed.
It is no exaggeration to say.
As long as he still has a breath left.
No matter how severe the injury, as long as there is a living person nearby, he can recover in a short time by devouring the other person's flesh and blood cells.
And it wasn't just physical injuries.
But also the Chakra consumed within his body!
"To actually suck the flesh and blood of others... you bastards will truly die a horrible death..."
Watching his subordinate being murdered by a Dongdao Contractor, the rage in City Lord Li Hongfei's heart instantly surged uncontrollably.
"Don't be in such a hurry. You just ruined my good business; I'll come and kill you in a moment."
The corner of Matsushita Goshige's mouth twisted into a cruel smile.
Who would have expected that at this moment.
Inoue Gessui, who was standing beside him, suddenly gripped the large blade in his hand.
Then, with lightning speed, he delivered a horizontal slash.
He directly cut off his head.
This scene immediately left City Lord Li Hongfei stunned.
What was the situation?
Could it be that this Dongdao Contractor with the large blade is a spy for our side?
Is he of Great Xia nationality?
"Gessui-kun... you... why..."
Matsushita Goshige's mangled body fell to the ground, his head rolling to Inoue Gessui's feet, his line of sight just catching Inoue Gessui's action of sheathing his blade.
However, at this moment, he could no longer do anything. He could only stare with wide eyes, squeezing these few words out of his mouth with all his strength.
"Goshige-kun, rest in peace."
"You sacrificed yourself in this battle. I will report this to His Majesty the Emperor, and your name will be carved upon the altar of the Nanga Shrine in the future, to be worshipped by all the people of East Island."
Inoue Gessui lowered his head and glanced at Matsushita Goshige's head with an indifferent gaze.
Afterward.
The corner of his mouth hooked up as he turned his head to look at City Lord Li Hongfei again.
"The power of the Tailed Beast belongs to me. No one should even think about taking it from my hands."
Hearing this.
City Lord Li Hongfei finally realized.
It turned out that this silver-haired man wanted to monopolize the Tailed Beast power within Zhang Xiaolin.
That was why he had turned on his own kind like a dog eating a dog.
"Killing even your own companions for profit... do you people have any humanity left?"
City Lord Li Hongfei stared at Inoue Gessui with a grim expression and shouted in anger.
However, Inoue Gessui paid him no mind.
To avoid any further complications, he immediately raised his large blade and charged toward City Lord Li Hongfei.
—Ninja Art: Mind Disturbance Technique!
At the critical moment.
City Lord Li Hongfei unhesitatingly activated the secret technique he held in his hand.
In an instant.
Inoue Gessui's body was suddenly frozen in place.
"Good thing I kept a card up my sleeve."
City Lord Li Hongfei let out a heavy sigh of relief.
He controlled Inoue Gessui to drop the large blade in his hand.
Then, using both hands, he took out more than a dozen Shuriken from his own pocket and fired them at Inoue Gessui's vital points.
Splash splash splash...
A crisp sound of flowing water rang out.
Those Shuriken actually passed right through Inoue Gessui's body.
"What's going on? Is that a Water Clone Technique?"
"No, if it were a Water Clone Technique, it would have dispersed upon being attacked..."
City Lord Li Hongfei's brow furrowed.
He quickly pulled out several Kunai, wanting to test it again.
But in the next second.
Outside the City Lord's Mansion, another white-haired man holding a bone whip and dragging a tail behind him walked in.
When that person saw Matsushita Goshige's corpse, the expression on his face changed instantly. He turned to Inoue Gessui and asked, "Gessui-kun, what happened? How did Goshige-kun sacrifice himself?"
Inoue Gessui deliberately put on an angry expression: "Asakura-kun, be careful. This fellow's contracted character is from the Yamanaka Clan and possesses very powerful control skills. Goshige-kun and I were just caught by his trick and ambushed; Goshige-kun was killed by him."
Asakura immediately frowned upon hearing this.
Although Matsushita Goshige's contracted character was only an Elite Jonin.
If he were to fully release his Cursed Seal Form, his strength would be enough to rival a Kage-level Contractor of the same level.
He didn't expect him to actually die here today.
This was simply a disgrace to the Empire.
City Lord Li Hongfei snorted coldly, just about to say something.
But Inoue Gessui beat him to it: "Asakura-kun, my body has already been controlled by him. He can now manipulate my movements. Do not come near me."
Inoue Gessui's words made the anger in Asakura's heart even stronger.
He turned his head to look at City Lord Li Hongfei, a strong murderous intent flashing in his eyes: "You killed a great general of our Empire, so I will make the people of your entire city be buried with him!"
