The windows of the abandoned building were sealed with countless pages, blocking every gap, allowing only slivers of light to penetrate, casting mottled shadows on the floor.
Ayase Origami stood quietly by the window, gazing at the silhouette of Xia Pingzhou.
At the instant Oda Takashige's figure slipped into the shadows, the challenge officially began.
Ji Minghuan couldn't discern where Oda Takashige went but issued a directive to one of the cannon carriages to load ammunition and prepare to fire—although his dynamic vision and reactions couldn't match the ninja's speed, he understood the mindset of an excellent ninja:
Quick and clean, take the enemy's head.
Therefore, at this moment, Ji Minghuan's command to the cannon carriage was:
"Cannon carriage, fire at me."
With a loud "bang," from the muzzle of the Black Iron Cannon Carriage, a dark cannonball shot out, directly towards Ji Minghuan's body!
