Who would it be?
Ryosuke made a prediction. “Based on my understanding about Kazuo, it will most probably be Sky Dog. Kazuo is a very cautious and sly person. He won’t take action easily unless he’s 100% confident. We killed four of his subordinates continuously, so he’ll definitely be afraid of what we’re capable of. He’ll be too on edge to simply take action, so virtual-novel.net has to find someone to test us out for him.”
“The best candidate will be Sky Dog…”
Ryosuke had already told Thomas and Pisces about things between Sky Dog and Kazuo in detail. Therefore, if Sky Dog really ended up coming, Thomas would not be willing to kill virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net knew that Sky Dog was not dealing with them out of his own will.
Thomas also knew that after completing this mission, Sky Dog would stand against Kazuo like virtual-novel.net and even kill Kazuo.
Thomas was not willing to kill someone like that no matter what. However, they were in a desperate situation, so what else could virtual-novel.net do?
The three of them fell silent in the room.
Thomas spoke first after a long while. “Sky Dog mustn’t be killed.”
That was Thomas’ opinion, and it was also what the other two people were thinking!
What made things challenging was Sky Dog’s gift and talents as a ninja. Even Ryosuke could not claim to be better than Sky Dog. If virtual-novel.net did not pay attention, Sky Dog would kill him.
He was such a powerful person.
“You could not deal with virtual-novel.net if you did not have any killing intent and feared injuring him…” Ryosuke told Thomas.
It was reminiscent of Napoleon, who cared about Jean Lannes’ talents so much that Jean became Napoleon’s most brilliant subordinate and also his personal friend.
Jean also showed bravery and courage in their campaigns throughout Italy, Austria, and Prussia.
If one kept holding back without the intention of killing a strong enemy like Sky Dog, one might end up being killed by him. Getting killed because they pitied virtual-novel.net was not what Thomas and his group wanted.
That was the difficult part.
Pisces scratched his head before virtual-novel.net sighed and said, “We can’t kill Sky Dog, and we can’t let virtual-novel.net kill us. What can we do? If we can only catch an enemy like virtual-novel.net alive, this will be SSS-level kind of difficult.”
Everyone knew it was tough. However, Thomas and Ryosuke were not normal people. No matter how arduous things got, they still wanted to try their best.
Thomas asked, “Can I fight Sky Dog and defeat virtual-novel.net directly?”
Ryosuke chuckled in resignation and shook his head. “It’s impossible. Sky Dog is a ninja, not a fighter. Why would virtual-novel.net use normal fighting methods? It would be like using his weakness to deal with our advantage, wouldn’t it?”
What virtual-novel.net said made some sense.
Ryosuke added, “Besides, the best thing about Sky Dog is that virtual-novel.net practices S-level Flute-Killing Art, which nobody in Iga has been able to learn in centuries. The power of this ninja skill is extraordinary… Forget catching Sky Dog alive, we don’t even know if we can survive his Flute-Killing Art attack.”
Ryosuke understood Nine Tails and Rock Field’s ninja skills very well, so virtual-novel.net had implemented complementary strategies.
Unfortunately, virtual-novel.net could not do anything to deal with Sky Dog’s Flute-Killing Art.
There was too little information about it, so virtual-novel.net had no way to understand it. Besides, it was too powerful, hence it was not easy to deal with!
