In the forests of Songze.
Okuriookami was isolated by a large number of Leech People at a position slightly away from Kanoya.
Despite its efforts to lunge left and right, it was unable to break through the encirclement of so many foes.
Swoosh!
Okuriookami once again threw its golden blade, and with a flash appeared at the blade's landing point, seizing the handle to slit the throat of an enemy.
But it was still not enough, far from enough.
Okuriookami could hear the screams of that Exorcist girl not far away.
It desperately wanted to go to her rescue, but it was unable to do so.
"Whimpers!"
The Golden Blade separated from the slick, bloodied flesh.
Okuriookami leapt and landed from mid-air.
The moment its forepaws touched the ground, a piercing pain surged through its right leg, nearly causing it to collapse on the spot.
Byakuro's eyes flickered with intense unwillingness and anger, but all of that was of no avail.
