The Ghost Ninja, appearing and disappearing like shadows, undoubtedly put immense pressure on the Peacekeeping Force.
There was almost no way to track them!
Even Night Vision Goggles and Thermal Imaging Devices were useless against the Ghost Ninja.
Because, strictly speaking, the Ghost Ninja was just a dark creature without a Heartbeat.
You had to fight Magic with Magic.
Uncle's classic saying wasn't just empty words.
"Fuck!"
General Kusa's face was contorted, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.
He slammed his large hand on the desk, almost unable to believe his eyes.
"Why is the Black Hand Gang able to command the Hand, the assassin group that rose to power in Fusang?!"
The Hand's fearsome reputation was known throughout the world.
It was also not unfamiliar to General Kusa.
In fact, the Hand's Fingers had once tried to assassinate General Kusa to expand their business.
Of course, the assassination attempt failed, but it made General Kusa clearly aware of the Hand's terrifying nature.
Because the Ghost Ninja's attire was similar to the Hand's, it created a misunderstanding for General Kusa.
In reality, the two were not even comparable!
Roar!
Afu and Zhou suddenly opened their bloody mouths, spewing out a blast of scorching flames.
Where the flames passed, even walls of reinforced concrete showed signs of melting.
The Black Hand Gang's four members, empowered by Shendu's demonic chi, moved like they owned the place, pushing the dragon's speed and strength to the limit, launching terrifying attacks.
"Oh no, oh no, oh no!"
Jackie Chan saw this and immediately ducked for cover.
He leaped like a monkey, his feet landing on a desk before launching himself forward.
In mid-air, he grabbed a mop handle, using it to knock over the unsuspecting Valmont, the suit-wearing thug.
"Yes!"
"Uncle Jackie, hooray!"
The mischievous girl, Jade, cheered.
"Begone, demons and monsters..."
"Begone, demons and monsters..."
"Begone, demons and monsters..."
The sacred chant rang out.
Old Man, the Chi Mage, once again used his old tricks.
With his hands tightly gripping the dried Pufferfish and Gecko, he instantly unleashed a barrage of magic rays like a rain of bullets.
He successively defeated the Ghost Ninjas flooding the area!
"Your magic comes from the same source as mine."
The Dragon Warrior wore an expression of appreciation, saying, "It seems the legacy of Chi Magic hasn't been broken, and has even spread to the barbarian world across the ocean."
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The moment his words fell, Lope once again began to make hand seals and chant an incantation.
His ten fingers intertwined, forming a peculiar pose, and countless energy scrolls successively emerged from his sleeves.
This was an essential ritual for Petrification Magic.
Once completed, the Tyrant who had twice dominated the Eastern Continent, the dragon of Burning Books and Burying Scholars.
Would undoubtedly be transformed once more into an unmoving coiled dragon sculpture.
"Don't even think about disturbing the Dragon Warrior!"
The burly Sumo Warrior charged at Rasu with great strides.
A brutal tackle immediately sent the ill-intentioned former partner flying.
Tohru, weighing nearly five hundred pounds, was like a speeding tank.
The powerful impact caused Rasu, even with his enhanced physique as a humanoid gecko, to feel dizzy and suffocated!
"Looks like I'll have to step in personally."
Shen Du finally couldn't bear it any longer.
He then let out a drawn-out shout, saying,
"Life Return!"
Suddenly.
Shen Du's dragon frame shuddered.
His muscles and bones underwent an instantaneous, earth-shattering transformation.
His nearly seven-meter-tall physique compressed violently, shrinking in the blink of an eye to a height of about two meters.
The density of his bones reached an almost unparalleled level!
This was a technique mastered by Rob Lucci in the One Piece world.
It involved controlling the internal organs, hair, muscles, and bones to condense, enhancing both movement speed and the resilience of the limbs.
Of course, the downside was that the Life Return form would consume a certain amount of strength.
However, for a Fire Demon, the loss was negligible.
With his innate claws, he could tear through any target.
Even the Dragon Warrior, Lope! Whoosh! Shen Du moved suddenly, leaving a blurry afterimage on the ground.
And the next second, he was already in front of the Dragon Warrior, Lope.
At a touchable distance, he could almost clearly see his nemesis's shock and horror.
His scalp prickled! His perception, which surpassed the mundane, gave Shen Du unprecedented confidence.
"Surprised? Unexpected?"
A playful smile appeared on Shen Du's lips.
Then, he clenched his fist, full-level Armament Haki covering it, suddenly enhancing its lethality and destructive power.
Carrying an unstoppable, terrifying power, it was slowly pushed out.
It suddenly struck the Dragon Warrior's face.
CRACK!
Lope's features twisted.
His nose was broken.
The skin on his face caved in, forming deep wrinkles.
BOOM! A figure in ancient attire was sent flying, smashing through several walls, their life hanging in the balance!
"No way?"
"The Dragon Warrior lost?!"
"How can Shendu change forms?"
"...It seems the Fire Demon recited a spell, Life Return!"
The crowd couldn't help but erupt in an uproar, their faces filled with terror, as they began to discuss the events.
Because the entire process, though lengthy in explanation, had actually taken place in a mere instant.
No one had seen what happened clearly!
Even the archaeologist Jackie Chan was stunned!
He had originally believed that awakening the Dragon Warrior, Lope, would be enough to re-seal Shendu...
But who would have thought that Shendu would actually defeat Lope!
