Shua!

Being asked by the defenseless woman in front of him. A sinister smile surfaced on the lips of the old man. The Qi inside his body suddenly erupted and a thick murderous intent leak from his body.

Shua!

His figure suddenly moves and appeared in front of Unohana. The fingers in his hands were like sharp claws that tear in the air towards Unohana's neck. He wanted to grab her and take her away so that he could enjoy the feeling of torturing her.

However, what happened next was something he didn't even think about.

The defenseless woman in front of him suddenly disappeared. After that, he felt that his stomach was pounded heavily and he flew away faster than he came.

Boom!

The old man slammed in the thick wall and his mouth was spitting blood. His eyes turned red while the pain in his stomach makes standing felt difficult. His mind was blank, he didn't know what happened as he forcefully tries to stabilize his body and breathing.

Then, he felt a thick murderous intent cover his whole body. It was so thick that he already imagined himself being killed. His heart trembles with the thought and he didn't notice that his whole body was already covered in a cold sweat.

He looks up and saw a figure standing several meters away from him. It was still the same beautiful woman before. However, something had changed. The gentle and kind expression before was now gone. It was replaced by pure indifference filled with thick bloodlust.

Siii!

The old man took a breath of cold air when he saw her expression.

"This...this..." the old man shivers and a flash sweep in his eyes. A crimson line appeared across his face and his whole body stops moving. Then, half of his head slides forward and blood flooded out from it.

Unohana then turns to the sky and stares at the moon. The bright moon earlier seems to turn crimson red and she returns inside.

From the shadows, a member of Roots was watching the scene and felt his heart turned cold. He never expected that the gentle and kind Unohana who helps regularly in the capital has this side on her. Even him who was trained under Danzo for several months felt a shudder in his heart.

"Luckily we were on the same side" the man murmured and jumps down to clean the corpse.

In several places in the capital, the members of the Vile Blood Church were fighting desperately. Their figures were bloody and they were all feeling desperate right now.

Several figures surround them, although the individual strength of their group of elders was higher. They were having a hard time against this group of people. Their enemies were very coordinated and they supported each other perfectly. Aside from that, the way they fight is very unique which gives them a headache.

"These f*cking ants!"

"Fight us head-on if you guys have the ability!"

Several other elders of the Vile Blood Church also express their dissatisfaction. Their eyes were filled with anger and hate as they couldn't wait to have the chance to grab their enemies and show them what they were capable of.

They all thought that with the King away from the capital. Their plan of revenge would be easy as they thought that the city wouldn't have enough strength to stop them. What they didn't expect was that these group of slippery bastards would appear in front of them.

Watching from a distance was Schneizel, Danzo, and Katakuri. They watch the Roots fight against the elders and even take the upper hand in the battle.

"The result of the training that I've given to them is this. With this result, the young master will definitely be pleased" Danzo speaks nodding his head satisfied on what he was seeing.

In these past months, aside from training Lori in ninjutsu. He had been busy gathering members of the Roots and teaching them. He had to make sure that each member of the Roots is capable.

"Well, your people can be said to have some abilities. However, in my eyes, it is still not enough and they need to improve their strength further. When the king returns, I will ask permission to him if 'that' thing should be used" although the strength of the Roots was good. For someone like Schneizel, it is still not enough.

"You two should discuss things when the young master returns. This time, we should quickly end this battle. I still need to go back to my room and eat my desserts" after saying that, Katakuri jumps forward and propelled himself towards the enemies. With his strength now at rank S, he can easily defeat the enemies.
