Salute To The General

Nathan had only just killed Yukio when Kogoro and Shohei launched their attacks simultaneously. Kogoro's weapon was a katana, while Shohei preferred to wield two swords of different lengths. As the rain continued to pour, the three swords came swinging toward Nathan at a ferocious speed.

Swish!

To their surprise, however, the latter darted past the blades swiftly and stealthily.

After having ducked the two men's first round of attack, Nathan grabbed the window of opportunity and threw a palm strike to Shohei's chest. Shocked, Shohei hastily attempted to block the powerful blow by crossing his swords.

Boom!

Alas, not only did Nathan's strike smash the two swords to smithereens, but it also landed squarely on Shohei's chest.

The impact was so strong that the latter instantly flew backward and fell heavily onto the wet, muddy ground.

After a brief struggle to get into a half-kneeling position, Shohei couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

At the same time, Kogoro seized the opportunity to merge with his katana and slashed at Nathan.

The attack was charged and fast like a bolt of lightning, to the point where even Colin and the Elite Eight secretly feared for Nathan's life.

Nathan, however, remained unfazed in the face of danger. After all, what was there to worry about when he was the strongest fighter in the world?
