Chapter 246

"Don't kill me." The Corrupt Strategist shouted.

However, Kuchiki Senya could not hear that voice at all. That katana ruthlessly tore through the Corrupt Strategist's protective qi, sending her flying several meters, shattering the window glass, and plunging her into the sea! 600

"No!"

The Corrupt Strategist struggled desperately, but she could not change the fate of being swallowed by the sea.

A great wave of cold crept up from her limbs.

The Corrupt Strategist closed her eyes, letting the icy seawater fill her mouth and nose.

"Apollo, Apollo, if there is a next life, I don't want to be an agent anymore, I don't want to carry out such dangerous missions anymore."

She whispered softly in her heart, then sank into endless darkness.

…………

Kuchiki Senya stood firm on the deck, glanced at his watch. He knew there was not a single living person left on this ship.

He thought of that little girl he had once saved, and also of that man who used to follow behind him calling him "Big Brother."

Time flows on—who could have foreseen that the once green and tender little brother had grown into the tall man he is today.

"If you survive, protect your sister for me. If she dies…" Kuchiki Senya sighed softly.

He did not consider that frenzied slaughter of his to be a mistake. After all, between him and those people, there was destined to be a life-and-death struggle. Since it could not be avoided, better to be decisive—to end it sooner.

And those people should have died long ago.

"We probably won't ever see each other again in this lifetime." Kuchiki Senya shook his head gently, seeming a touch of regret and reluctance.

At that moment, he heard footsteps.

Then, a figure in a white robe came into view.

"Xiuli?"

It was an old man, leaning on a cane, wearing loose pajamas and a fisherman's hat, walking over from a distance with slow steps.

His steps were unsteady, but his figure was ramrod straight.

With every step he took, a thick, oppressive aura radiated from his body.

"You've come."

Kuchiki Senya smiled faintly and stepped forward two paces.

In his right shoulder was embedded a dagger.

"It's been a long time," he said.

"You should know better than I do why I've come here," the old fisherman said.

The number of people in this world capable of harming Kuchiki Senya could be counted on one hand.

Yet today, this man was wounded.

"Mm, you don't just want to capture me—you want to wipe out my whole family," Kuchiki Senya said calmly.

He knew his parents were already dead. All he had left was a younger sister and an older sister. Sadly, the sole survivor of those two families had also died an unnatural death.

"No, your sister wasn't killed on my orders. As for your parents…" the old fisherman paused, then said, "I didn't send anyone to hunt you down either."

That sounded like an explanation of something.

Kuchiki Senya stared coldly at the other man: "Who exactly are you? Why did you kill my parents?"

This old man was the mysterious figure who had nearly killed Kuchiki Miyu in that previous attack!

After leaving Hua Xia, he had not returned to Southeast Asia, but had hidden his identity and slipped aboard a pirate ship!

This old fellow was definitely no simple matter!

"Your parents were killed by me," the old man said. "My name is Sato Toshio."

Sato Toshio!.
