One of the tethers of the bamboo hat had been cut off in the battle with the young man, and the entire bamboo hat was in an extremely unstable state.

The dysprosium passed by, and the strong wind brought up by the dysprosium immediately followed, and the bamboo hat immediately made an overwhelmed sound.

With a "squeak" sound, the bamboo hat on Qing Deng's head flew into the distance with the wind.

Suddenly, the young man's eyes were fixed on Qingdeng's face.

"Huh? You are...!"

The young man's eyes widened at first, and then he showed a complex expression that was three parts shocked, three parts happy, and four parts puzzled.

"Oh my... what kind of day is it today? Not only did I meet the daughter of the Chiba family, a martial arts master who has reached the level of 'power', but I also met the famous Nioh-dono..."

Qingdeng raised his left hand and gently rubbed his right cheek.

Because he was used to wearing a hat, when his face "gained light", the feeling of the cold outside air caressing his facial skin made him feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

——Has your identity been exposed... It doesn't matter, just expose it.

At this time, the young man raised his head and shouted deep into the woods behind him:

"Nue! Wait a minute! Stop shooting!"

Nue... is this the name of the "sniper" who can carry out precise sniping from hundreds of meters away? Qingdeng thought to himself.

While silently remembering the name, Qingdeng swept his gaze to the direction where Dysprosium flew from just now, and listened with bated breath.

Even with the blessings of "Perceiver of Wind" and "Gathering God", Qingden could only hear the sound of wind and the sound of leaves, flowers and plants being disturbed by the wind.

The sniper named "Nue" is either in a ridiculously far away place, or he is very good at hiding his aura.

Whether it is the former or the latter, they all point to the same fact: this person is indeed a qualified "sniper"!

A qualified "sniper" must protect himself while supporting his companions from a distance.

"Nioh! I have long wanted to meet you face to face like this!"

The young man put down the knife in his hand, lifted his fighting stance, and looked harmless.

"Ah, I'm sorry. I was so excited that I forgot to introduce myself. I have no name or surname. I only use the word 'Rakshasa' as my first name."

In an instant... what happened next really happened in an instant.

An indescribable atmosphere fell between Qingden and the young man...that is, Rakshasa.

For a moment, everyone, including Qingden, Zonazi and Souji, focused their eyes full of intense emotions on Rakshasa.

Suddenly, as if the paused time began to flow, Qingdeng turned the boiling emotions in his heart into a cold voice without being too showy:

"So... you are Rakshasa."

"Um?"

Rakshasa raised his eyebrows, looking surprised.

"Huh? Nioh, from your tone, it seems like you already know about me?"

"I don't just know you."

Emotions boiling like fire are transmitted from the voice to the eyes.

"The 'poison' that destroys people's minds, the gang that used the Qingshui clan to produce and sell this drug, the grudges between you and my father... I already know all of these!"

"!"

There were conspicuous ripples in the depths of Rakshasa's eyes.

"...Tachibana Takayuki...wait...you have been trying your best to protect Onodera today...ah, I see...that's what happened."

After murmuring, Rakshasa raised his hand to his forehead and burst into self-deprecating laughter.

"Do you already know everything about your father..."

"Hehehe... today is indeed a special day."

"Yes! I am your father-killing enemy: Rakshasa!"
