Although the Ming family never spoke of it openly, everyone understood one thing in their hearts.
That was, the true power holder of Sakura Country nowadays was Kenji Mitsui!
If they were to use heavy weapons to bomb and kill the challenger this time, Kenji Mitsui's reputation would inevitably be tarnished.
However, for Priest Banjō, if Kenji Mitsui lost face, then he himself could rise in status!
Therefore, for Priest Banjō, using modern heavy weapons to strike the challenger was a move that killed multiple birds with one stone!
At this moment, seeing Kenji Mitsui start to worry, he knew that he had him in his grasp.
"Very well, I will withdraw," Priest Banjō then put on an indifferent demeanor towards Kenji Mitsui, and spoke in a very casual tone.
The reason Priest Banjō dared to say this was because he clearly knew that at this moment, Kenji Mitsui had no other path left except the one he had arranged for him!
This was a multiple-choice question, and Kenji Mitsui had to choose an answer!
And no matter which answer Kenji Mitsui chose, Priest Banjō would not lose anything; on the contrary, he would always gain an upper hand over Kenji Mitsui!
At this moment, Kenji Mitsui was at a complete disadvantage.
Therefore, facing Priest Banjō's feigned indifference, Kenji Mitsui, who had already lost his composure, spoke in a panic.
"Don't!"
As soon as Kenji Mitsui uttered these words, a barely perceptible cold smile appeared on Priest Banjō's face.
Then, Priest Banjō began to play dumb, pretending not to understand, and asked Kenji Mitsui two words.
"What?"
At this time, Kenji Mitsui naturally knew that his face was irrecoverable.
Since the situation had become an unavoidable choice between two options, Kenji Mitsui quickly weighed the pros and cons. For the first time, he smiled at Priest Banjō and said.
"I believe there's no need for chivalry when dealing with enemies!"
Upon hearing Kenji Mitsui's words, Priest Banjō couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Good! President Sanjing is right! We are bound to win this time!"
Priest Banjō laughed, his smile extremely brilliant.
However, at this moment, Priest Banjō's true intentions were completely different from what he said.
Although he spoke nicely, the reason he felt happy at this moment was entirely because Kenji Mitsui was now walking right into the trap he had set!
Kenji Mitsui and Priest Banjō had now reached a certain unspeakable, tacit understanding.
Then, without making a sound, they each left the place.
Their agreed time with Chen Fan was in the afternoon.
Now, they each had ample time to attend to other matters, or to make further preparations for the duel.
The net was already cast, and they were just waiting for Chen Fan to walk into the trap!
In their eyes, Chen Fan would surely be unable to escape and would be doomed!
Chen Fan did not keep them waiting for long. In the afternoon, shortly after Kenji Mitsui, Priest Banjō, and others had arrived one after another.
A car slowly stopped at the main gate of Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
Immediately, the car door opened.
Chen Fan, carrying his sword and bag, got out of the car and strode directly into Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
Within the ancient and elegant Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Chen Fan was about to face enemies led by Kenji Mitsui and Priest Banjō.
A group of people.
Chen Fan's gaze briefly scanned the number of people opposite him, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Indeed, his actions over the past two days had been quite effective.
From hundreds of people down to a dozen, it seemed that today's battle would be easier.
As Chen Fan sized up Kenji Mitsui and the others, they were naturally also sizing up Chen Fan.
Seeing Chen Fan's solemn expression, Kenji Mitsui couldn't help but imagine Chen Fan's miserable state later.
That is, Chen Fan being subjected to intense, continuous bombardment by countless modern heavy weapons!
At that time, no matter how capable Chen Fan was, he would surely be reduced to dust!
He could already see victory in the near future, so he couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
As a powerful individual, Kenji Mitsui had never had the habit of concealing his emotions.
So at this moment, he looked at Chen Fan triumphantly and laughed heartily.
"Haha! Damn challenger! You're finished! You're dead this time!"
Seeing Kenji Mitsui's demeanor, Chen Fan couldn't be bothered to acknowledge him. He directly turned his gaze to the person who should have been the main character.
That is, Reiji Kashima.
Due to Reiji Kashima's status as a martial god, he was truly insignificant in front of Kenji Mitsui and the two priests.
Therefore, Reiji Kashima was standing discreetly behind Priest Banjō.
He quickly noticed Chen Fan's gaze towards him.
"As expected, you've come," Reiji Kashima smiled helplessly and stepped forward to greet Chen Fan.
"Yes, I've come." Chen Fan nodded from afar towards Reiji Kashima.
Then, he swept his gaze over the dozen or so people opposite him and said, "Who is in charge here? We should have a chat before we fight."
After Chen Fan's words fell, Reiji Kashima chuckled awkwardly and retreated to his position.
Upon hearing Chen Fan's words, Kenji Mitsui exchanged glances with Priest Banjō and Priest Kujō.
Soon, they reached a consensus.
That was, they would not only defeat Chen Fan in terms of strength but also defeat him in words!
Therefore, Priest Banjō, who was the most skilled in scheming and the most eloquent among the three, took a few steps forward.
Then, Priest Banjō narrowed his eyes and said to Chen Fan from a distance.
"Whatever you want to discuss, why don't you discuss it with me? They are all rough people, and their words can easily be careless, leading to your pre-match mood being affected. If you happen to lose and then blame us, it would reveal your unseemly nature as a Great Xia person."
"Actually, there's nothing much to discuss, I'm just a bit confused." Upon hearing Priest Banjō's words, Chen Fan realized that the other party was being sarcastic and decided not to be polite anymore.
Therefore, Chen Fan took a step forward and leaped up!
In an instant, he easily jumped onto the high platform.
Then, with a cold, mocking smile on his lips, he looked down at Priest Banjō and the others and questioned them.
"Since you've decided to gang up on me, why have you only brought so few people?"
