Looking at the twisted steel longsword in his hand, the leader of the wandering samurai, Dahe, remained relatively calm, gritting his teeth and roaring: "This is ninjutsu, are you a ninja?"
"So what if I am? So what if I'm not?"
Aoi stared at Dahe with disdain, having already sentenced him to death in his heart.
"Then you dare to lay a hand on me?" Dahe said with a smug smile: "We are working for Lord Ginkaku, and all this money is demanded by Lord Ginkaku!"
"Ginkaku?"
Aoi froze for a moment. To think there was such a coincidence in this world. It was truly a case of finding something without looking!
Seeing Aoi's silence, Dahe mistook it for fear. He sneered and waved his hand: "You'd better scram quickly. If you do, I might consider not reporting this to Lord Ginkaku!"
Saying this, Dahe was about to walk towards Little Peach on his own. If he didn't make an example of someone today, he wouldn't be able to collect money in the future.
"You truly court death. Ice Release – Blizzard!" Aoi gently blew, and a chilling cold air surged towards Dahe like a living creature. In just one second, Dahe was frozen into an ice sculpture.
"What are you doing? Aren't you afraid of Lord Ginkaku?" Dahe's only movable head turned in terror, invoking Ginkaku's name in an attempt to intimidate Aoi.
However...
"Ginkaku?"
Aoi sneered. If not for relying on the Nine-Tails' chakra and the Six Paths Sage's ninja tools, this kind of trash wouldn't be much stronger than Lie Dou.
"If I get the chance, I'll definitely send Ginkaku down to meet you!" Aoi lightly kicked, completely shattering Dahe's left leg. Ice mixed with flesh and blood scattered across the ground...
"My left leg! What have you done, you brat?"
Dahe's eyes widened in grief. With just this one blow, he was permanently crippled!
What could be more painful than watching oneself die little by little?
"This leg is the price for trying to kill Little Peach!" Aoi sneered and slowly crushed Dahe's right leg: "This leg is for insulting Little Peach's profession and character!"
In Aoi's opinion, even geishas should have their dignity. They offered their bodies in exchange for money; it was a fair transaction!
If they were born rich, no one would choose this line of work. At least for Aoi, they were not dirty. On the contrary, guys like Dahe who profited from the geishas' hard-earned money were the dirtiest beings!
Aoi killed Dahe little by little, and Dahe witnessed the entire process: pain, despair, repentance...
People often say that death is just a small scar. Death is sometimes not scary, but the powerlessness and despair of witnessing one's own death are particularly terrifying!
"Devil!" "This child is a demon!"
The remaining wandering samurai tried to escape, but how could Aoi let these scumbags escape...
"Ice Release – Blizzard!"
After a breath, the tavern was filled with more than a dozen lifelike ice sculptures. The heads of the ice sculptures cried out in pleas for mercy: "Please, spare me! I'll never dare to do it again!"
"Next time? In your next life!"
Aoi sneered and beckoned to the geishas in the corner: "These guys are yours. Take revenge for your grievances!"
And so, the entire tavern went mad!
The beautiful geishas, crying, smashed all these ice sculptures. For the first time, they lived with such ease and dignity!
And all of this was given to them by Aoi!
"Aoi-kun, thank you!"
Nearly a hundred geishas knelt before Aoi. It was Aoi who taught them that even geishas have their own self-respect and principles.
"No need to thank me..."
Aoi shook his head with a smile: "I have my own selfish motives. If you really want to thank me, then go to Konoha."
What he was about to do could not be leaked. If Aoi didn't want to kill them, he could only let them leave.
Aoi took out a large sum of silver and shook his head with a smile: "Leave here and go to the Konoha Hospital. The bald Dean there will arrange for you..."
"Aoi-kun, aren't you coming with us?" Little Peach worriedly tugged at Aoi's clothes...
"No."
Aoi shook his head with a smile, his gaze seeming to penetrate a thousand miles, seeing Tobirama Senju, who was rushing towards the Land of Lightning: "I promised someone, and I will not let her down!"
