Kirito was already prepared to withstand Kazumi Kuroki's attack. Kirito knew that Kazumi Kuroki's attack would not kill him, but Kazumi Kuroki's attack would definitely seriously injure him. After all, Kazumi Kuroki still wanted to use him to force the Red Monkey and Nichang out. Kirito could only pray that the Red Monkey and Nichang could escape from this city as soon as possible.
Kirito did not sit still. He held his Zanpakuto tightly in his hand and used all his spiritual power. The Zanpakuto continued to grow. Kirito was ready to resist this attack with Kazumi Kuroki. Kirito told himself that even if he died, he would die standing.
Kirito saw Kazumi Kuroki's disdainful smile. He also saw that the Zanpakuto in Kazumi Kuroki's hand began to break down into blades. Under the sunlight, it looked like cherry blossoms blooming one after another.
The two blades collided, making a loud noise. Smoke rose everywhere, and even the surrounding houses collapsed. Kazumi Kuroki stood behind the smoke, her Zanpakuto tightly supported on the ground. The disdain in her eyes was replaced by surprise. Kazumi Kuroki did not expect Kirito to be so strong. Although Kazumi Kuroki could not use all of her power, Kazumi Kuroki used at least 20% of her power.
Although Kazumi Kuroki only used 20% of her power, it was enough to annihilate many people. Kazumi Kuroki had been wandering in the human world for many years, looking for a way to heal her body, although she could not use all of her power.
However, how could the current Kirito resist the hardships that Kazumi Kuroki had experienced?
However, Kazumi Kuroki suddenly felt that her hand holding the Zanpakuto was numb. She looked down and found that her arm was constantly bleeding. Kazumi Kuroki suddenly admired Kirito, but the two of them were destined to be unable to coexist. Kazumi Kuroki stared at the figure in the smoke.
After the smoke dissipated, Kazumi Kuroki found that Kirito was standing there motionless. Kirito's Zanpakuto was no longer as bright as before. Instead, it was somewhat dim. Kirito spat out a big mouthful of blood.
With a plop, Kirito knelt on the ground at once, and blood spilled all over the ground.
Kazumi Kuroki slowly approached Kirito step by step, and said with some pity, "If it weren't for the fact that you and I don't walk the same path, I might really become very good friends with you. But now, in order to respect you, I will give you a quick death."
Kazumi Kuroki finished and picked up the Zanpakuto. Kirito looked unwilling. Kirito thought: Am I going to die here?
I haven't found Wise Joe Yifeng yet?
I haven't returned to the Soul World to defeat Aizen yet?
Just when Kazumi Kuroki was about to kill him with one strike, an angry shout came from afar. "Stop."
This angry shout was accompanied by an iron rod that suddenly hit Kazumi Kuroki's Zanpakuto. Kazumi Kuroki didn't have time to dodge and retreated a few steps. Kazumi Kuroki turned around and stabbed the Zanpakuto into the ground before stopping.
Kazumi Kuroki looked back and found that Nichang and the Red Monkey, who were running away, were helping Kirito up. Kazumi Kuroki couldn't help but laugh. "Since you two are going to die together, it's just right that I go and find you."
Nichang looked at Kirito's deep wound with heartache and helped Kirito wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. When he heard Kazumi Kuroki's words, he couldn't help but feel angry. Nichang looked at Kazumi Kuroki with disdain and said, "If that's the case, then you can try."
After saying this, Nichang's body kept turning golden light, the bracelet on his hand kept flashing, and Nichang loudly chanted, "Bloom, Flower of Life."
The bracelet on his hand kept emitting golden light, and soon Kirito's wound began to heal slowly, and the Zanpakuto began to no longer be dim.
Whether it was Kirito, the Red Monkey, or even Nichang himself, they all looked at Kirito's recovered body in a daze. Even Kazumi Kuroki looked at Kirito's recovered body with a dull face.
Kirito looked at his body in disbelief. The place where blood was flowing had completely healed. Kirito looked at the Zanpakuto in his hand and found that it was exactly the same as before.
Kirito looked at Nichang with some surprise. Kirito suddenly wanted to hug Nichang. This kind of excitement simply broke through Kirito's brain. The Red Monkey also looked at Nichang with excitement.
Nichang felt the hot gazes of the two people. Not only was he a little embarrassed, but he was also happy with himself. Nichang felt that he was finally no longer the person who would only drag Kirito and the Red Monkey down.
Nichang could not only protect himself, but also heal Kirito and the Red Monkey. The sudden joy made Nichang suddenly faint.
Kirito saw Nichang suddenly collapse, and hurriedly rushed over to catch Nichang, preventing Nichang from falling to the ground. There was uncontrollable worry in his eyes. Kirito looked at Nichang and hurriedly ran his spiritual power through Nichang's body to see what happened to Nichang.
Kirito looked at Nichang anxiously, fearing that something would happen to Nichang. Kirito ran his spiritual power and shouted, "Nichang, Nichang, what's wrong with you?"
Kirito's spiritual power ran through Nichang's body and found that Nichang was fine. He just overused his spiritual power and was a little tired.
Kirito breathed a sigh of relief. Kirito was afraid that Nichang would be accidentally attacked by Kazumi Kuroki. Kirito carefully put Nichang on the ground. Although the Red Monkey was also a little worried about Nichang, he knew that Nichang was fine since Kirito's expression was normal, so he relaxed. The most important thing now was to defeat the enemy in front of him.
Red Monkey stared at Kazumi Kuroki angrily, and Kirito also held his Zanpakuto tightly. However, Kirito found that Kazumi Kuroki was staring at him motionlessly, with dull eyes. Kirito was afraid that this was Kazumi Kuroki's trick, and said loudly, "Kazumi Kuroki, you will pay for what you have done."
Kazumi Kuroki heard Kirito's angry shout and suddenly recovered. Kazumi Kuroki ignored the angry eyes of Kirito and the Red Monkey. She just stared blankly at Nichang, her eyes dark and gloomy, and the Zanpakuto in her hand returned to the hilt.
Kazumi Kuroki's mood was very complicated. The anger that was hurt by Kirito had been replaced. Kazumi Kuroki felt that Nichang was the person she was looking for. Her body, her life, and her mission could all be saved.
Kazumi Kuroki thought, and tears kept flowing down her cheeks. Kazumi Kuroki felt that her persistence finally had meaning. Kazumi Kuroki suddenly collapsed on the ground and cried loudly. Regardless of Kirito and the Red Monkey's eyes, Kazumi Kuroki just wanted to cry.
