Boom! Boom! Boom!!! Clang! Clang! Clang!!!
The sounds of battle collisions, followed by waves of intense shockwaves, continuously emanated from one direction. Although the source was far away, it still felt as if one could be blown into the sky!
"That crazy woman's fighting is as savage as ever. Sora, are Musubi and that little girl okay?"
Smoothing her long, disheveled hair, Sister Kazahana stopped smiling, her face now serious.
The power of No. 4 was deeply felt by almost everyone present. Even though Musubi and Kaho were fighting together, they still stood little chance against Karasuba.
"Don't worry, both Musubi and Kaho have grown. We can no longer judge them by our old standards."
With a slight smile, Sora spoke up.
Indeed, as he said, the growth of Musubi and Kaho could only be described as terrifying! Although individually they were still a step behind Karasuba, the outcome of their combined strength was hard to predict…
"Sora, we have guests!"
At that moment, Matsu, who had been silent, opened her eyes and adjusted her round glasses to report.
Matsu's spiritual power was exceptionally strong. Nothing on the island of Kamikura could escape her surveillance. Moreover, she could connect her spiritual power with satellites in space to gather even more information.
Just now, Matsu had discovered something interesting through the satellite.
As Sora was about to ask for details, his phone suddenly rang. The caller was none other than Hiroto Sora, who was stationed in the capital.
"What's up, Hiroto?" Frowning, Sora asked over the phone.
Knowing Hiroto Minaka well, Sora guessed that something must have happened in the capital.
"Those guys are back!" Hiroto didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point.
"Tch! Those stubborn bastards. Seems like the lesson we gave them last time wasn't enough!" Although Sora had anticipated this, a hint of displeasure still flashed in his eyes.
"Probably the appearance of Kouten has made them unable to hold back anymore. How's the situation on your end?" After sharing his speculation, Hiroto turned his attention to Sora's situation.
"It's over here. I've dealt with those three, and the Sekirei have mostly been recovered."
"How many forces did they mobilize this time?"
After briefly explaining his situation, Sora asked.
"More than ten times last time's number! And they're all equipped with the most advanced weapons in the world. MBI even detected signs of nuclear weapons." Hiroto's tone grew serious.
"Ten times? And nuclear weapons? Heh, those guys are really going all out! If they can't have it, they'll destroy it, huh?" A cold glint flashed in Sora's eyes as a smirk appeared on his face.
"I'll handle Kamikura Island. I'll send Musubi and the Sekirei to assist you in the capital. You handle things there as you see fit." While discussing his plans with Hiroto, Sora began contacting Musubi and the others at the base through the King's Contract.
"Heh, even though I'm in my forties, I still feel the adrenaline pumping!" Hiroto's slightly excited voice came through the phone before the call ended.
"Matsu, what's the current situation?" Putting away his phone, Sora turned to Matsu.
"Hehe, just as the Chairman said, the numbers are more than ten times before. It's a multinational joint force!"
"Well, look, they're already here!"
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!!!
As soon as Matsu finished speaking, the loud hum of machinery filled the air. Everyone looked up to see numerous black dots rapidly approaching in the sky.
Upon closer inspection, they were the latest model fighter jets, fully armed!
"Such unlovable guys, always trying to mess with us."
Watching the approaching jets, Sister Kazehana smiled a mesmerizing smile and stepped forward, extending a delicate hand.
"Whirlwind!"
As her ability activated, a whirlwind mixed with countless pink petals surged toward the approaching jets.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The jets caught in the whirlwind were thrown into disarray, with a few unlucky ones colliding and exploding into flames.
However, no one looked victorious.
Perhaps learning from the lessons of twenty years ago, this time they had mobilized the world's most elite forces. After a brief moment of chaos, the jets quickly regrouped.
Rat-tat-tat-tat!!!
Spotting Sora and the girls on the ground, the jets opened fire, raining down a torrent of bullets.
If they were ordinary people, they would have been terrified. But to Sora and the Sekirei, such an attack was nothing more than a joke. They didn't even bother to dodge!
No. 7, Akitsu, stepped forward. After resting for a while, her strength had recovered significantly. Activating her ice powers, she created a massive ice shield in front of everyone.
Pop! Pop! Pop!!!
Like firecrackers, the bullets all struck the ice shield. No matter how numerous or fast they were, they couldn't even shake the shield.
"Ha… such boring guys. I'll go check on Musubi and the others. You handle things here."
Sora had no interest in these so-called elite forces. Picking up the little girl Kusano, he spoke to the girls.
"If they want to invade this place, they'd better be prepared to be buried. Wipe them all out…"
Leaving behind a chilling command, Sora, Kusano, and Matsu disappeared in a flash.
However, hearing Sora's order, the girls' eyes lit up!
Although most of the Sekirei were kind-hearted, they showed no mercy to those who sought to experiment on them.
"Hehehe, I'll take care of the ones in the sky. The rest are yours!" With a light laugh, Kazehana spread her wings made of pink petals and soared into the sky.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!!!
The ground trembled as countless armored vehicles, tanks, and armed soldiers appeared before the girls.
Exchanging glances, the girls' eyes flashed with killing intent. In an instant, they disappeared, each seeking their own targets.
Clang! Thud!
It was hard to remember how many times this had happened. With a horizontal slash, Karasuba sent Kaho flying, and with a sweeping kick, she knocked Musubi down.
Again and again, they got up despite their injuries, refusing to give up.
Karasuba, who had little patience, was already seething with anger. If it weren't for Sora, she would have already cut these two girls down with a single strike!
"Boring! Boring!! Boring!!! Is this all you've got? You want me to acknowledge you? You want to drive away the darkness in my heart? With just this? What a joke!!!"
Bang! Another kick landed on the stomach of Kaho, who was lying on the ground.
"Ah!"
The girl let out a scream, her body flying more than ten meters away, bouncing several times before finally coming to a stop.
"Lord Karasuba, please don't say that! No matter how many times we're beaten today, Musubi and I will defeat you!" Wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, Musubi, her shrine maiden skirt already tattered, stood up from the ground, her eyes filled with determination.
"Ha… Ha… Lord Karasuba, I used to fear you, and even now, you're still terrifying." Clutching her abdomen, Kaho struggled to stand up, leaning on her naginata.
"But!"
"The me of today is no longer the weakling you once looked down upon!"
Clang! The ground cracked under her feet as Kaho shot towards Karasuba, their blades colliding, sending sparks flying.
"I've found my bonds, and now I have no doubts. I'm here to shatter your darkness, and that's the message I want to convey!"
With a leap, Kaho retreated and stood beside Musubi, staring at Karasuba with a firm voice.
"Musubi too! Musubi too!" Jumping up and down, holding her small pink fists, Musubi chimed in.
"You, are you just going to stand there and watch? I'm about to lose my patience and cut them both down!"
Ignoring Kaho and Musubi, Karasuba turned her head to the other side. Clearly, her heart was also beginning to stir.
"Hey, hey, I just got here, okay? And I didn't want to interrupt you!"
"As for cutting them down, well, you know, let's not do that."
With a hint of helplessness in her voice, a figure stepped forward…
