"Hey, bro, your leader and buddies have all run away." (Seiya Raito)

Seiya Raito pulled out an arrow, strung his bow, and aimed at Zaxi Doji.

Zaxi Doji remained silent, riding his motorcycle in circles, searching for an opportunity.

It seemed that the remaining arrows in the quiver on his back were his last line of defense.

After a brief thought, Seiya Raito relaxed the bowstring, crouched down, and picked up three more arrows from the ground, holding all four arrows in his right hand.

However, instead of simply holding the four arrows together, he placed them between his thumb and index finger, index and middle finger, middle and ring finger, and ring and little finger.

It looked somewhat like a stance taken by Date Masamune from the Oushu province.

But he didn't use the arrows as claws like a chuunibyou, he had another intention.

"Well then, since you don't like to talk, I'll say a few more words." (Seiya Raito)

As Seiya Raito spoke, he stood the four arrows upright for Zaxi Doji to see.

"When it comes to short-distance archery combat, I once saw this technique." (Seiya Raito)

"According to ancient records, a qualified Arab bowman should be able to shoot three arrows in 1.5 seconds." (Seiya Raito)

"An outstanding Arab bowman could achieve an even faster rate of fire." (Seiya Raito)

"Out of curiosity, I also practiced for a time." (Seiya Raito)

"Allow me to demonstrate." (Seiya Raito)

As Seiya Raito spoke, he drew his bow to full tension, his body rotating along with Zaxi Doji's motorcycle.

Then, in the blink of an eye, Seiya Raito consecutively shot out four arrows.

Four arrows, aimed at four different points.

Even though Zaxi Doji had all his attention focused, he only saw the first arrow.

The first arrow was aimed at the prediction point, indicating where Zaxi Doji would be if he maintained his speed and direction.

As for the second, third, and fourth arrows' trajectories, Zaxi Doji completely lost sight of them.

Now, whether to accelerate or decelerate and turn, Zaxi Doji had no clue in his mind.

But his body responded.

Human instincts, based on what one sees and hears, prioritize survival and trigger reflex actions.

Thus, Zaxi Doji turned the handlebars, making a 90-degree turn to evade the predicted arrow.

And then, he was pierced through the head by Seiya Raito's arrow.

The arrow pierced from Zaxi Doji's forehead through the back of his head.

Zaxi Doji fell off the motorcycle with a thud.

However, because his broken leg was still tied to the motorcycle, his body was dragged along the ground for a distance.

Finally, the band that secured the broken leg loosened, leaving Zaxi Doji behind as the out-of-control motorcycle veered out for a distance before eventually tipping over.

Seiya Raito's four arrows were shot at Zaxi Doji's locations after he accelerated, maintained speed, made a sudden stop and turned, and leaped off his motorcycle.

With skills surpassing human capabilities, Seiya Raito transformed traditional point-attack archery into a formidable ranged weapon.

Seiya Raito walked slowly towards Zaxi Doji's fallen body.

At this moment, Zaxi Doji had departed from this world, lying motionless face-up on the ground.

Only the hole in his head, pierced by the arrow, oozed fluids from inside his skull.

"This is a good bow. Thanks for taking care of it." (Seiya Raito)

Seiya Raito squatted next to Zaxi Doji's corpse, returned the bow with both hands, and placed it next to the body.

Then, Seiya Raito stood up, walked over to lift the motorcycle back up, straddled it, twisted the throttle, and sped away.

On the other hand, Bai Yaxin and Longya, after numerous twists and turns, finally found a van.

Initially, due to Bai Yaxin's disability, Longya suggested carrying Bai Yaxin, thinking it would be faster to find a vehicle.

Or, Bai Yaxin could wait in place for Longya to bring the vehicle.

Both proposals were rejected by Bai Yaxin.

As a man who held the second seat in the Manranyama conglomerate, being carried by someone else was simply ridiculous.

But if he stayed in place waiting for Longya and the bartender caught up with them swiftly, he wouldn't have any protection.

Therefore, even though their joint actions were slow, Bai Yaxin insisted on sticking with Longya.

After finally finding a usable van through the staff at the Nijo Castle, as soon as they got in, they heard the approaching roar of a motorcycle engine from afar.

Was it Zaxi Doji approaching, or someone else?

Seemingly composed, Bai Yaxin sat in the back seat, but internally, he was on edge.

The main reason he appeared composed on the outside was because Longya was by his side.

Until now, Longya had saved Bai Yaxin's life several times, and Longya's strength was unquestionable.

Seconds later, the motorcycle appeared in Bai Yaxin and Longya's view.

The rider was Seiya Raito.

This meant Zaxi Doji had once again been defeated.

In such a short amount of time.

"Well, this is quite unexpected." (Longya)

Longya inserted the key into the ignition and started the engine.

"Mr. Bai, any instructions?" (Longya)

Longya turned back from the driver's seat to inquire of Bai Yaxin.

At this moment, Bai Yaxin had several options before him:

First, have Longya deal with Seiya Raito while Bai Yaxin drives away.

Second, have Longya handle Seiya Raito while Bai Yaxin stays and faces the risk that if Longya loses, he would have no escape route.

Third, ignore Seiya Raito and have Longya drive Bai Yaxin away, although the high probability was that they couldn't shake off Seiya Raito.

Fourth...

"Damn that Zaxi Doji for getting us into this mess with the motorcycle..." Bai Yaxin cursed inwardly.

But this curse unexpectedly gave him an idea.

"Ignore him, head straight to the hospital." (Bai Yaxin)

Bai Yaxin issued the command.

"Alright, what if he keeps chasing us?" (Longya)

"No problem, if there's a chance, bump him a few times; if not, let him follow." (Bai Yaxin)

"A mere motorcycle couldn't possibly overturn our vehicle, right?" (Bai Yaxin)

"Okay, then let's go!" (Longya)

Seeing Bai Yaxin's decision, Longya no longer said anything more. He stepped on the gas, ignoring Seiya Raito who was closing in from the side, and drove straight towards the exit of the Nijo Castle.

However, the van was obviously no match for the monstrous motorcycle, and after a few seconds, Seiya Raito caught up.

Bai Yaxin didn't seem troubled by this outcome. He leisurely raised his feet, took out his phone, and dialed a number.

"Hello, Kuroda, it's me." (Bai Yaxin)

"Round up your gang and come to the Nijo Castle. There's a little motorcycle punk who needs to be taught a lesson." (Bai Yaxin)

"If things go smoothly, I will overlook the trouble you caused before." (Bai Yaxin)

With that, Bai Yaxin hung up.

In reality, he didn't believe that Kuroda's gang could handle Seiya Raito.

This Seiya Raito, who could defeat Zaxi Doji in such a short time, was evidently a dangerous figure.

The youngsters in Kuroda's group wouldn't stand a chance against him.

But the advantage of Kuroda's group was their numbers.

As formidable as Seiya Raito was, he couldn't possibly perform magic, right?

This was the real world; it couldn't possibly turn into a fantasy novel where one is unrivaled, right?

Bai Yaxin toyed with his phone, keeping his gaze fixed on Seiya Raito in front of the van.

He pondered what it would have been like if he had paid more attention to Seiya Raito initially, recruited him to his side. What a grand opportunity that would have been.

He had missed out on such a talent, unable to claim himself as a talent spotter in the future.

Allowing such a talented individual to be taken by Manranyama Souren...

—But... there should still be a chance, right?

Unwilling to let go of this talent, Bai Yaxin began considering ways to win over Seiya Raito, rather than viewing him as an enemy.

However, time was running out for Bai Yaxin.

Seiya Raito, after following alongside the van for a while, began to act.

He first roamed on his motorcycle to the van's left rear side, out of the view of the side mirror.

Then, he accelerated and swiftly came to the right front side of the van's driver's door (Japan has right-hand drive), delivering a powerful punch to shatter the glass!

With a heavy "thud," the strength of Seiya Raito directly shattered the glass.

The sudden impact caught Dragon Fang by surprise, even though he had been through countless battles.

He thought he had hit something with his car and jerked the steering wheel to the left, almost colliding with the car in the adjacent lane, prompting furious honking from the other driver.

The car window didn't shatter, but it cracked.

Dragon Fang, now realizing what had happened, saw Starry Night approaching and immediately understood the situation.

"Nice move, really playing it well." (Dragon Fang)

A smile appeared on Dragon Fang's face as he stepped on the gas pedal, pushing the car well beyond the speed limit of one hundred and ten kilometers per hour on the two-lane road in the city. He glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Starry Night catching up. With a swift turn of the steering wheel, he positioned his car directly in front of Starry Night and then slammed on the brakes.
