Chapter 2973: Chapter 2056: Encountering a Fierce One on the Road (Part 3)

"That’s good, catching someone valuable will improve our commission significantly." The woman in the kimono suddenly launched forward, gripping the wooden sword with both hands.

Despite wearing geta sandals, her movements were incredibly quick, the rhythmic sound of the geta striking the ground creating a unique timing.

Mina and Ronnie, seeing their attempts to communicate failing, immediately gave up their illusions, and as soon as the woman moved, they also moved simultaneously, one left and one right, to confront her.

Acting as one, Mina and Ronnie hesitated not at all, moving almost in sync, a testament to their many years of mutual understanding.

They both wielded short blades, which, despite their shorter reach, were far more formidable up close than a wooden sword.

The three women clashed in the alleyway.

A true confrontation isn’t like what you see in movies, where back-and-forth exchanges are prolonged and dramatic; it often happens in an instant, too quick for ordinary people to clearly see what occurred.

Blanche only saw the three figures interchange positions, heard the woman in the kimono’s sharp "Ha!" "Hey!"—two brief, forceful shouts—and heard the sounds of two solid thuds and the crisp clang of metal hitting the ground.

Bai Xiaosheng observed quietly, his eyes focused, saying nothing.

The man with bandaged hands on the opposite side clicked his tongue, exclaiming, "I didn’t expect to encounter two skilled fighters."

The person in the kimono backed up several steps, taking a stance with the wooden sword, facing Ronnie.

Mina’s body went limp and she collapsed to the ground.

Ronnie, with a fierce gaze fixed on the woman in the kimono, found her hand trembling as she held her knife. Quickly, she used her other hand to steady her wrist.

The woman in the kimono had just delivered a double slash, one hit striking Mina’s head, knocking her out instantly, while the other struck Ronnie’s wrist but didn’t disarm her.

Mina’s Tiger Claw Knife had torn through the kimono woman’s chest, revealing the light stab-proof vest beneath.

Meanwhile, Ronnie’s blade left a long scratch on the wooden sword, nearly cutting into the woman’s hand.

"How incredibly dangerous," the kimono woman chuckled to Ronnie, "I’ll be serious with my next strike."

Ronnie’s wrist trembled, but she firmly grasped the knife with the other hand, her gaze unwavering.

"What should we do now?" Blanche looked anxiously at Bai Xiaosheng, even she could see that Ronnie was no match for the woman.

Despite knowing Bai Xiaosheng might be of no help, Blanche instinctively asked him.

"Should I go and stop them?" Bai Xiaosheng inquired.

Blanche, thinking Bai Xiaosheng was going to negotiate terms with the opponent, nodded repeatedly.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and stepped forward.

This made Blanche think: although this guy looks frail, he does have some courage.

"Stop fighting; that’s enough." Bai Xiaosheng surprisingly intervened, stepping between the two women.

The woman in the kimono, just becoming enthused, was visibly displeased as a seemingly bookish man interrupted, her gaze turning icy.

"I’m telling you, stop now." Bai Xiaosheng surprisingly ordered the woman in the kimono.

This scene rendered Blanche and Ronnie speechless.

The bandaged man also furrowed his brows, "Where did this fool come from...?"

"Mr. Bai, leave quickly; this is dangerous, not the place for you!" Ronnie shouted urgently.

"Though I dislike fighting with women, I can’t stand to watch her act recklessly." Bai Xiaosheng solemnly told the woman in the kimono, "If you attack again, I’ll accuse you of intending to harm, and under Ganande law, you can expect to go to jail."

Blanche held her face in her hands, wondering what was going through his mind, actually invoking legal standards with the opponent...

"Noise!" The kimono woman’s gaze turned cold, and she swiftly closed in on Bai Xiaosheng, her wooden sword tracing a circular arc in the air and swinging at him like a meteor.

Bai Xiaosheng seemed like wooden, unable to dodge.

Blanche couldn’t help but close her eyes, it’s over!
