Even more than the Uchiha, fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a joke, no need to be so serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Die!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Takuya nod nonchalantly with an indifferent expression pushed Hōzuki Jirō over the edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew the weapon strapped to his back and charged, his sharp blade aimed directly at Takuya's throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going head-on like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Takuya was a bit surprised and swung Samehada down heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a loud crash, Hōzuki Jirō's sword shattered under the impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samehada let out a dissatisfied grumble, as if rebuking Takuya for using it so recklessly.
