Kaminari Raiu was on his way towards the southern part of the north when he suddenly stops and stepped on the grassland, around him were spread out massive trees. The trees around him were at least three hundred feet tall.
He looked around as he grabs gloves out of his pocket. He is also now wearing a black long coat and inside him his wearing the same kimono. Thunder patterned kimono.
"Good thing I leave, Lutaka must be worried by now but it's fine since she's gonna come here anyways soon, now where can I find these fox swordsmens inside this forest," he said as he thinks and began to walk.
He sees threads in the trees and leaves and sees some kind of obvious trap in the far distance. He guards as he looked around and was dead serious. He is ready to draw his sword anytime as he sensed someone coming.
He turned around and sees a man wearing a fox mask and a scythe behind the unknown man. The unknown draw its sword and swing it right at him as he turns around and also swings its sword.
His eyes widen as he turns around and sees the man wearing a fox mask and scythe behind him. He also draws his sword and swings it making their blades collide in the middle of the air.
"Fox?! Who is this man?" Kaminari Raiu thought as he got flew back by the force of the swordsman's blade. Suddenly the swordsman's eyes were serious and he was about to do a technique as he landed on the ground and step on the grass, same as Kaminari Raiu.
Foxy is one of the fox swordsmens guarding the land around near the southern part of the north. He was on his way back when he sees Kaminari Raiu on the ground walking and jumping on a giant tree branch where they encounter him.
"Hey! I'm a friend, I've been deployed here by the northeast... I mean Uhm," Kaminari Raiu said as he signal to stop and hold his sword in his right hand.
"Northeast?! What is northeast? Northeast village? There's no such thing there! Everything in there is destroyed you should know it by now!" Foxy said furiously as he stab the ground he was standing on with his blade.
"You gotta understand, I've been deployed here secretly, I'm one of the thunder swordsmen, we should get going before it's too late... One of the fox swordsmen," he said in a calm voice as he smiles and was on guard.
"This man is not aware of the hidden village... Then those foxes that got deployed aren't the duo fox swordsmen, the ones that got deployed are the other seven... If that was the case we're in trouble," Kaminari Raiu thought as he sees the unknown swordsman in the distance who is foxy remove his blade from getting stabbed in the ground. He suddenly strokes his blade menacingly.
"Prove it!" foxy said in a killer intent aura voice as all of sudden underneath the soul of Kaminari Raiu feels the swordsman's darkness and frustration all over the years have passed.
"That man is not normal is he some kind of magical creature?" Kaminari Raiu thought as he pointed back his sword and suddenly his eyes were serious.
"Try adopting my speed, let's see if you can see it," Kaminari Raiu said with confidence as he steps his left foot, and all of a sudden the air around him starts trembling.
"Trembling? Then vibration must be next, his lightning is nothing to compare un" foxy said as he slowly bowed and suddenly he got interrupted when all of a sudden the thunder swordsman vanished in the distance. His eyes widen as he looked around and sees lightning and thunder sparkling circling him. His eyes widened as he looked around and swing his sword in the air and began to run fast.
Suddenly Kaminari Raiu appeared on the left side of him with a speed faster than lightning. His eyes were a little bit glowing and around him have thunder sparkling.
"Now do you believe me?" Kaminari Raiu ask as there was still lighting and thunder and the air vibration around him. Foxy nodded as he stop running and stood up.
"Fine! Just stay away from me don't do anything that could kill you, if you are one of the thunder swordsmen then your life worth more than us, and my name is foxy," Foxy said as he began to walk and shake hands with him.
"Oh! My name is Kaminari Raiu," he said as he sees foxy put back his sword in his sheath and began to run. Kaminari Raiu followed him from behind and also began to run.
"Kaminari Raiu? What a strange name for a thunder, you should get a new name like Zeus or maybe something better," Foxy said as Kaminari Raiu made an expressionless face. They both walk bypass some giant massive trees. They were near the southern part of the north. They see a mountain in the far distance as on the other side of that mountain is where the Hidden Project E land is.
"I smell blood and hear a mechanical doll, I sensed something underneath that Mountain, the heads engineers must check that one out," Kaminari Raiu said as he got in front of foxy.
"They're near the Hidden Project E, some of our men needed to go back to a hidden fox village near the east, there's only three of us fox swordsmen left and the other two the supposed partner, I'll tell the names when we got there and try not to overdo your lightning, it tickles," Foxy said as Kaminari Raiu start speeding up and foxy was like slow.
"He still doesn't believe it, I hate foxes," Kaminari Raiu said as he lowered his head down and heavily breathes. He was running fast as he can and reserving his energy. He was looking around and keeping his ears on and trying to hear if someone coming.
"Deadly mechanical dolls, that would be troublesome, after that I need to quickly go to the far northeast... So that I could see the travelers for myself even though there's a chance that it is trapped," Kaminari Raiu thought as his eyes were sharp and starts hearing things around the land near the hidden project E. He can sense that the other side of the mountain is a dense foggy forest.
"Tsk! I can't sense them or hear them through the fog, are the heads sure that they haven't evolved yet? If they evolve and turn into a completely different being into an intelligent creature they would be deadly as hell, they would destroy all the nations in just one night, but those legends back in the Dark Era wouldn't let that happen," Kaminari Raiu thinks, as after a couple of minutes running he reaches the mountain. He stops as he sees the giant trees were also on the side of the mountain they were spread out and compacted.
He began to walk as Foxy reaches him and looked up. They were at the bottom of the mountain and now are walking up. It would take them an hour to walk to the top of the mountain. The mountain's peak. They both began to walk as foxy finally catches him and catches his breath.
"We can't run up... It would take too much fatigue, tsk... There's no way to turn, it would also be an hour if we go to the side of these mountains, then better climbing," Kaminari Raiu said as he looked up and sees how tall and big the mountains are. He sees that the mountain his climbing on was near the clouds.
"What tired already?" Foxy said as he walk bypassed Kaminari Raiu and climb the mountain that was like nothing. Foxy was climbing and Kaminari Raiu was getting left behind and was furious as he walk up. It was a rocky grassy path.
"Ah! Don't you mock me," Kaminari Raiu said as he quickly followed him from behind. Kaminari Raiu was looking and sense unknown swordsmans in the distance.
Kitsune was near the hidden Project E. He can see the mechanical dolls walking out from a specific cave as he was on guard and hiding in the shadows.
He was in two hundred feet tall trees on top of a tree branch behind a tree. He was using the shadow to hide. He was crouching as he looked at the mechanical doll. His eyes widen as he sees the doll that has six arms holding its sword menacingly.
He sees that, and it walks out into the dense cave. The dense forest was their land. The fog was getting thicker and thicker as time goes by. He sees the mechanical doll that has six arms suddenly stop on its ground while holding its six swords in its hands.
"He truly has six arms... That could be trouble for some, if that doll defeated those four swordsmen then we wouldn't be enough to take down this Hidden Project E, that doll can use the technique but hopefully, he won't know the secret technique," Kitsune thought as he leans in the tree for a second. Then he takes a look back again in the cave and sees the mechanical doll wasn't there.
He then around and sees the mechanical doll that has six arms coming toward him. The mechanical doll swung down its sword. It was about to reach him but he quickly jumped back. The mechanical doll didn't reach him but it cut the branch he was crouching on.
"He knows?! How did he cut that tree branch in a single swing? Damn it! This doll is more powerful than I thought!" Kitsune said as he reaches the ground and step on the grass and looked back. His eyes widen as all of a sudden the second blade of the Mechanical Doll light up in colored orange. Suddenly it burns up flames as he falls towards Kitsune.
"This area is forbidden," the mechanical doll said menacingly in an abrupt voice as he sees Kitsune draw his sword. He swings it upward as the mechanical doll only swings one blade towards him, it was the flaming one. Their swords collided and it make Kitsune fly backward fast. He slammed into a tree as he quickly back at his and raised his blade. All of a sudden his blade also becomes orange and suddenly is in flames.
"That sword... It's not yours, isn't it? It's a shame that... I'm the one who put that blade on fire for you... Now you're enhanced but still can't beat me," the mechanical doll said who quickly flew towards him as soon as he was done talking.
"My blade is burning... This can't be right I'm not that kind of swordsman! In the past generation, the flame swordsmans have been hiding since they were powerful swordsmen they always got threatened so they all left with no trace if I'm not them this sword might be it," Kitsune said as he pointed down his sword and sees the Mechanical doll flew towards him.
Kitsune quickly moved to defensive positions and step on his left foot and also flew. They reached each other and swing their flame swords. They both collided making a great force and expressing flames. They both spar and exchange blows with their swords. It collided again but this time the mechanical doll got flew back.
"Tsk...! That doll is clearly holding back on me, the only thing to do is escape. I can't believe this, Kaika and Hirishna are probably on their way here but I need to make sure I don't die," Kitsune said as he turn around and flew. He run and flew as the mechanical doll that has six arms was already back at his feet looking at him in the distance.
Suddenly he senses someone watching him in just one glance. He looked back into the cave as he continues to run. He sees another mechanical doll that is holding a bow. He sees that it's not a normal bow and it was aiming toward him. Another doll arrived and it flew up and landed on the side of the mechanical doll that has six arms.
"This is where the chaos begins. The Mechanical Doll that solo thousand of men in that Era will rise again as a mechanical doll," the mechanical doll said who can divide itself in an abrupt glitching voice as all of a sudden it starts dividing itself.
The mechanical doll that was aiming for Kitsune in the cave. Let go of the bowstring and it suddenly burst out and flew towards Kitsune at great speed. Kitsune quickly turn around as he sensed the arrow flying with great force behind.
"Tsk?! If I got hit that I'm a dea-" he said and he suddenly got interrupted as he turn around and sees the arrow coming towards him. His eyes widen as he sees that the arrow was already behind him.
"There's no time to draw my sword damn it! But losing a left hand isn't an option," he thought as he bowed and avoided the arrow. He quickly back at his feet and turn around and sees the mechanical dol preparing for another attack. He hears sudden sounds behind him. He turns to his right and sees the arrow made a hole in three giant trees. It was a round hole and has a great impact. It landed on the ground and made a large boom that made a shockwave and blow the leaves and trees and him.
He quickly began to run as he vanished insight. He guards as he was sweating and slowly removed his mask using his right hand. He continued to run non-stop as he put back his sword in his sheath. He suddenly feels a pain in his left arm. He takes a looked at it and sees that he was wounded and blood was dripping.
"Tsk! Did I get hit by that still? That girl is dangerous who is she? There must be more mechanical dolls underground that needed to be destroyed while it's not too late," Kitsune thought as he flew up and step on a tree branch and continue to run back to the camp.
"Following him would be pointless, the other mechanical dolls will soon awaken, same as the other mechanical dolls that are like me, I build them, and once they're all awake we will start in the south, destroying the south would be our top priority since they have the swordsmith village," the mechanical doll said that has six arms menacingly. He put back his sword in his sheath.
The doll turns to its right and sees the mechanical doll who is holding the bow walking out of the cave. It was a hidden dense cave and it was hard to find since there were a lot of bushes and giant trees surrounding it.
"I feel my bow has been weaker and my arms no longer have the skills," the doll said who is holding the bow. She turns to her left and walks toward the mechanical doll that has six arms. The three of them are menacingly looking as the fog around them got thicker and thicker.
Kitsune step back on the ground again. He sees two unknowns running towards him in the far distance. He draw his sword as he was running and jumped high up. He sees that the unknown swordsmen were Kaika and Hirishna. They both quickly stop and watched him fall. Kitsune pulled back his sword.
"They're finally here but we should wait for foxy," he thought as he reaches them both. He walks toward them as he looked around and looks for another fox swordsmans.
"Where're the others? I thought... I thought they were coming when did they leave?" Kitsune asks as he stops and reaches them both who looked at each other.
"About that, they leave, they said they got the command to come back to the fox village, a messenger swordsman arrives with its letters, except for foxy and another fox swordsman, so... There's five of us, but we just don't know this other fox swordsman is," Kaika answered as he looked at Kitsune who is closing his eyes and looking down on the ground and face palming.
Hirishna looked at him and sees his left arm bleeding. He sees this he was injured. Kitsune sat down on the ground as he looked around.
"There was... Another puppet, there's a total of three of them, we need to destroy those immediately and I hope they deployed at least one powerful swordsman! Like at least one thunder swordsmen so we can finish this hidden project E! There must be more dolls underneath that and they could raise them in just one single click of a button," Kitsune said as to stand back up again and turn around.
"This is the place where foxy said us to meet him, but he seems to be not here yet," Kaika said as they heard someone approaching their left. They notice that there's also someone on their right approaching. They first looked to their left and sees a man running with a scythe on his back and wearing a fox mask with another swordsman behind him. The three of them see a mountain in the far distance.
"They've arrived just in time... Kaika and Hirishna stay in an open area and don't let the bow girl disappear in your sight," Kitsune said as he turn around and sees them both nodded. The one on their right was the first one who arrives. They turn around and see another fox swordsman.
"Kitsune, I've arrived from the west, I have a message, two informants hidden swordsman have said that there's another swordsman who will arrive and not cooperate with us, he said that this swordsman will destroy the info inside the hidden facility underground," the unknown fox swordsman said that arrived.
"We will see, Lumuna," Kitsune said to the fox swordsman that arrive and who is also named Lumuna. A girl's name but his a man. He is wearing the same outfit as kitsune. He is also wearing a fox mask but a different sword. He is also wearing a coat on the outside that is hiding his sword because it was attached to his kimono.
Foxy arrives with Kaminari Raiu. They both stop as the four of them stare at the unknown swordsman that is behind foxy. They stare as foxy looked at them with an expressionless face behind his mask.
"You were saying again Kitsune?" Kaika asks as he stares at Kaminari Raiu behind foxy. Foxy has the scythe of Kurokushima behind his back.
"This man behind me is Kaminari Raiu I supposed one of the thunder swordsmen and behind my back is the scythe of Kurokushima they were gonna need it, and they also said that Hirokushima's sword needed to retrieve as soon as possible from the hands of the mechanical dolls if not that sword could be used in destruction," Foxy said on a serious voice as he looked at the four.
