Xiao Tian’s aunts were in tears, holding each other tightly. Their cries were extremely sorrowful, filled with despair.

Among them, Xiao Tian’s mother, Xiao Nianqing, was even more overwhelmed with grief, several times nearly fainting. Watching the video of Xiao Tian being struck heavily, Xiao Nianqing cried out in agony, "Xiao Tian!!!! If you die, your mother won’t live either!!!"

It’s said that a mother’s heart aches for her child’s pain. Xiao Nianqing had not seen Xiao Tian for a long time and missed him dearly.

Finally seeing Xiao Tian after so long, but in such a manner, how could Xiao Nianqing’s heart not ache??

The despair and pain made Xiao Nianqing almost unable to breathe.

Zhong Aiguo stared blankly at the video of Xiao Tian, emotions churning within him.

Ever since Zhong Kexin was attacked, Zhong Aiguo had a bad feeling. That’s why during this forceful intelligence operation, Zhong Aiguo did not contact Xiao Tian out of personal reasons.

After the failed assault, thinking of the country, Zhong Aiguo had no choice but to contact Xiao Tian.

Now, his uneasy premonition had finally come true.

Watching the video of Xiao Tian, Zhong Aiguo felt as if countless heavy stones were weighing on his heart, his eyes red.

Finally, Zhong Aiguo, with a strange expression, picked up the red phone, about to dial the military’s number.

Xiao Nianqing, nearby, hurried over to stop him, asking, "What are you doing?"

Zhong Aiguo, filled with rage, said in a deep voice, "Contact the air force, attack Japan directly!! I can’t stomach this!!!"

Xiao Nianqing shook her head tearfully, though her heart ached.

"I know you’re upset too, but... we can’t start a war with a country just because it’s our son!"

"Once war breaks out, who knows how much suffering it will cause. He’s our son, but he’s also a soldier of Huaxia."

Zhong Aiguo understood this principle. For them, family was small, the nation was large.

As a soldier, one must know to sacrifice the smaller family for the greater family!

Tears streamed down Zhong Aiguo’s old face.

He just missed his son a little.

He only felt a little sorry for his son.

Since childhood, Xiao Tian had been hiding with Xiao Nianqing, and after growing up, for the country and the family, Xiao Tian gave up so much, lost so much.

And all of this was indeed what he ought to endure!

In the video, although Xiao Tian was growing weaker, his attacks hadn’t ceased. Zhong Aiguo, with a trembling voice full of anticipation, said, "Xiao Tian can still fight, as long as the helicopter leaves Japanese airspace, I believe he can escape!"

Xiao Nianqing nodded tearfully, burying herself in Zhong Aiguo’s arms, crying silently. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Far away, Ghost Face also saw Xiao Tian, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, through special means.

At this moment, his heart was extremely complex, his nose feeling a bit sour.

Watching Xiao Tian grow weaker, Ghost Face closed his eyes.

"Old friend... this time you’re up against a nation... I... can no longer come to your rescue!!!!"

Ghost Face was fully aware of his abilities; last time facing the five of Star River, with not many people, he could save Xiao Tian with speed.

This time, facing a sea of people, even a god would find it difficult to save Xiao Tian!

Yet, Ghost Face spoke in a trembling voice.

He stared blankly at Xiao Tian in the video, like a god of slaughter, leaving corpses wherever he went. Stronger than when they parted last time.

He couldn’t help raising his thumb, slowly saying, "Well done!"

Just then, Ghost Face seemed to have thought of something, his expression changed, and he said lightly, "If it truly comes to the crucial moment..."

A mysterious glow flashed across Ghost Face’s face.

Meanwhile, on the mountainous back of the Mizuno Clan headquarters in Japan, a group of people were watching a projector showing the military and special police jointly attacking Xiao Tian.

But when they saw Xiao Tian kill the Four Swordsmen, even famous within the Mizuno Clan with one strike, and his terrifying might standing against an army alone, a storm of waves surged in everyone’s hearts.

Fujino Aki and others stared at Xiao Tian in the video, their gazes vacant, a chill rising up from below.

This scene was simply too shocking!

Whoooooosh ————————

Just as Fujino Aki and Muto Ichiro felt panic at Xiao Tian’s strength, a sudden fierce wind erupted around them.

A series of tornadoes appeared from nowhere, raging across the entire back mountain, leaving dust swirling.

Along with these tornadoes was an extremely powerful aura. Under this aura, even the sunlight dimmed, as if all things submitted to it.

"What’s going on??"

Feeling the strange wind, Xiaochuan Yashi limped hurriedly out of the lounge. Leaving the lounge, he saw the black tornadoes, their howls echoing through the valley.

The tornadoes swiftly shifted, finally settling behind the small cabin where Fujino Katsuyuki was. Like two Black Dragons coiling there!

"What is this??" Xiaochuan Yashi was full of shock, looking at the hut.

His eyes glowed with incredulity, mumbling, "It’s... Master Fujino Katsuyuki!!! Master Fujino Katsuyuki is out of seclusion!!!"

"Master (Grandfather) is out of seclusion??"

Upon hearing Xiaochuan Yashi’s voice, several Mizuno Clan members immediately rushed out of the room.

Indeed, though the surroundings were wild with wind, it was evidently all centered around the hut where Fujino Katsuyuki cultivated in seclusion. The aura was incredibly powerful.

All eyes gleamed with fervor. Instantly, countless Mizuno Clan members directly knelt and shouted,

"Welcome Master Fujino Katsuyuki out of seclusion!!"

"Welcome Master Fujino Katsuyuki out of seclusion!!"

Amid the kneeling, a burst of roaring laughter emanated from the cabin.

Boom!!!

The next moment, the entire cabin exploded instantly! Wood shrapnel flew everywhere, the powerful blast even cracking the ground around.

The wood shrapnel dispersed, forming a cloud of dust. In that dust, a slender figure could be seen approaching slowly.

A middle-aged man, dressed in a thin blue robe, walked out. At the moment of his appearance, the wild wind ceased instantly, as if everything surrendered to him.

The man’s hair was white as snow, with a high nose. His eyes were sharp, emitting a natural chill.

This middle-aged man was indeed the Japanese Aikido master, Fujino Katsuyuki!

Fujino Katsuyuki’s steps were extremely slow, but everyone around was stunned!

Though Fujino Katsuyuki’s steps were slow, each step covered a whole ten meters! As if Fujino Katsuyuki flew through the air for a stretch!

In a flash, Fujino Katsuyuki spanned a hundred meters!
