Cough cough… um, can I just surrender? Looking at Sora, who was holding a golden-haired loli with three Sekireis behind him, Sanada Nishi weakly asked.
If he could choose, he definitely wouldn't want to encounter Sora! No one knew better than him how terrifying this seemingly harmless man was!
'Well, you can't just surrender; that wouldn't be fun!'
'But don't worry, Nishi Ashikabi, this is a battle between Sekireis. As an Ashikabi, I won't intervene, so you just need to fight with peace of mind!'
'Moreover, consider it a special favor. If your performance satisfies me, it's not impossible for you to keep these three little guys.'
With a slight smile, Sora thought that among all the Ashikabi, Sanada Nishi was the only one he had some fondness for, perhaps because they both shared a trait called 'foolishness.'
'Phew… I see, you scared me to death!'
Patting his chest, Sanada Nishi let out a long sigh of relief. He was genuinely afraid that Sora would intervene; if that happened, there would be no need for a fight.
Although he could feel that the three Sekireis behind Sora were strong, and even the golden-haired loli he was holding was a dangerous presence, he still had absolute confidence in his own Sekirei.
After all, he had suppressed the entire Western District of the Shintō Teito by himself; how could he have done that without some skills!
'Alright, my little cuties, let's fight! For me, eliminate all those Sekireis!'
Seemingly seeing hope for victory, Sanada Nishi put his hands on his hips, completely looking like a gangster boss, issuing orders to his three loli Sekireis.
Uh, but—
'Wow, that guy is just like us!'
'Yeah, yeah, he looks like so much fun!'
'Let's go play with him together!'
…
With a twitch of his mouth, Sanada Nishi watched as his three Sekireis ran over to Sora, bouncing around, pulling and tugging, wanting to play with the golden-haired loli. He felt an urge to spit blood.
Damn it, be serious! This is a fight! A fight!!
And they ran over to such a dangerous person without any precautions; are you trying to get yourselves killed?!!
"Idiot, come back!!!"
Although he was extremely speechless inside, Sanada Nishi couldn't just leave his three little loli Sekireis behind. He rushed towards Sora while shouting loudly.
However, just as Sanada Nishi took two steps, a purple lightning bolt suddenly descended from the sky and struck right in front of him.
Boom!!!
Looking at the large pit in front of him, Sanada Nishi was horrified. If that attack had hit him just now, he would probably…
He looked up and saw the two twin Sekireis in S&M queen outfits standing in front of him, and a serious expression appeared on his face.
Now, things were getting troublesome!
However, the tense atmosphere that had just been created was completely shattered by Sora behind the two Sekireis in the next moment.
"Kusano, since everyone likes you so much, why don't you go play with them!"
"Make sure to have fun!"
Sora whispered something in Kusano's ear, revealing a smile that hinted at a scheme.
"Big brother, leave it to me! Kusano will definitely have a good time with them!"
With her emerald green eyes sparkling like jewels, Kusano confidently patted her flat chest and said.
Then, under Sanada Nishi's blood-spitting expression, Kusano took his three loli Sekireis and ran off to play in the mud…
"Hey! Shijime, you guys, hurry back to me! Come back!!"
Sanada Nishi was so angry that he was stomping his feet, but no matter how much he shouted, the three lolis ignored him.
"Let's come back when Lord Ashikabi is about to die. Anyway, he's still alive and kicking now, so let's play first!"
Cough cough, this was the heartfelt voice of the three lolis.
Sora looked at Sanada Nishi with some sympathy. It wasn't easy for this guy to take care of three Sekireis like a dad all the time!
"Alright, Sanada Nishi, let the kids play. The battle can be left to us adults." Sora said with a teasing smile.
Sanada Nishi felt an impulse to punch Sora.
Damn it, you released one loli but took away my three lolis, of course, you would say that!!!
"Ha… there's no helping it. I can only use my ultimate move against someone as shameless as you!" Covering his face, Sanada Nishi said with great frustration.
If he could, he really didn't want to use this move.
Just as Sanada Nishi finished speaking, a powerful aura shot up into the sky, and a figure rushed towards Sora with lightning speed, startling Hikari, Hibiki, and Akitsu!
The figure was moving so fast that they could barely see a shadow, wielding a gigantic scythe of death, exuding a terrifying aura that clearly indicated they were not an ordinary opponent!
Sora smiled slightly but had no intention of dodging. Akitsu, who was closest, reacted first and immediately blocked in front of Sora, activating her ability to quickly form a massive ice shield!
Boom! Crash!!! Crackle!!!
The giant scythe of death struck the ice shield, producing a deafening sound, and various ice shards flew everywhere, riddling the surrounding ground with holes like bullets!
Moreover, Akitsu's ice shield shattered under that blow!
Fortunately, the power of the giant scythe had already been exhausted. Otherwise, that strike would have likely pierced through both Akitsu and Sora behind her!
"Hey? You actually blocked my attack. It seems there are still some experts around!"
"No. 14, Chiyo!"
A girl's figure appeared, and looking at this Sekirei who wielded a giant scythe like Yomi, Sora felt his titanium alloy eyes were dazzled!
Her upper body was almost completely bare, wearing only a peculiar chest cover. Below, she wore tight black long pants, completely covered on the right side, but the left side exposed her white thigh, which looked very uncoordinated.
Moreover, her hairstyle was even more shocking. She was clearly a beautiful girl, but she had a man's haircut, and her bangs were left super long, creating a completely reversed rhythm!
Sora's mouth twitched. Facing such a uniquely styled goddess, he really wanted to shout, "Sister, where did you find this crazy artist?!!!"
However, before Sora could express his feelings, another strange occurrence happened!
Whoosh!!! A tearing sound of air was heard as a rope swept towards them with incredible speed.
The force was so great that it even created a sonic boom!
Although it was just a rope, there was no doubt that if it hit, even Sora would be cut in half!
However, Sora, Hikari, Hibiki, and Akitsu were not ordinary people. They quickly jumped up, avoiding the sweeping rope.
But it wasn't over yet! The swept rope seemed to come alive, coiling like a serpent and attacking them again!
"Thunder!"
Seeing the strange rope coming at them, Hikari quickly stepped in front, extending her left hand, and a brown lightning bolt shot out, exploding against the rope with a loud bang.
"No. 17, Yuna!"
A calm yet murderous voice came, and a girl's figure appeared in front of them. She lightly licked the rope in her hand, and the ends of the rope danced in the air like living creatures.
Finally seeing the master of the controlled rope, Sora quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, although this one wasn't wearing outer clothing, at least everything else was normal and not as exaggerated as the previous one.
"Hehe, and I'm here too, No. 20, Hatae!"
At that moment, a voice rang out, startling Hikari, Hibiki, and Akitsu, who had just relaxed!
Another Sekirei girl wearing only a chest cover appeared, holding peculiar short blades in both hands.
With the previous two, this wasn't the main point; the key was that she had somehow appeared behind Sora, and one of her short blades was stabbed directly into Sora's back, piercing through his chest!
"Master! (×3)"
The girls were horrified. This guy had taken advantage of the distraction caused by the previous two companions to assassinate Sora!
However, what relieved the three girls was that their master did not show any signs of pain on his face, still wearing that calm smile.
"No. 14, Chiyo. No. 17, Yuna. No. 20, Hatae! Sanada Nishi, you really have gathered a group of extremely ruthless Sekireis!" Sora said to the helpless-looking Sanada Nishi.
His entire figure gradually faded, and under everyone's astonished gaze, Sora's body transformed into a puddle of water.
