Chapter 68
Episode 68: Uncle will protect you (1)
“…Everyone, come outside.”
The sailor who opened the cabin door looked very frightened.
“what?”
“Has the enemy really appeared?”
When he nodded and confirmed the kill, the passengers’ faces turned pale.
“Isn’t it possible that if we go out like this, we’ll all be executed?
“Ha…”
“I can’t die like this!”
The sailor standing in front of the door glanced back and urged again.
“If you just do as you are told, you can survive. “Please come out quickly.”
At a time when most of the passengers were in despair. There were those who reacted differently from them.
A group of martial arts people silently occupying a place in one corner.
“The enemy set it up without even knowing the subject.”
They were five swordsmen wearing blue military uniforms.
Everyone applauded their confident step forward.
They were everyone’s only hope.
I couldn’t help but feel confident in the sight of him pulling out his sword.
“Everyone, please stay here. “We will take care of it and come back.”
By the time they went out. Dong-gu bent his lower body and grabbed Yu Jin-san and Yu Seol’s shoulders.
“It is now. “I don’t think you need to worry since they will defeat you.”
He had a confident expression on his face, but Yoo Seol tilted his head with a half-confident expression.
“…It must be difficult.”
“I don’t know about you guys, but he has a very good sense of vision. I don’t know anything else, but there is no one who can match me in terms of discerning a master. There is no need to worry as the best experts have stepped forward.”
Was it because Dong-gu’s will seemed so firm? Yu Seol just crossed his arms and kept his mouth shut.
“hmm.”
As if waiting, the sound of a fight could be heard outside.
The sound of weapons clashing. And the screams were heard non-stop.
It didn’t take long for the commotion to die down again.
As soon as it became quiet, one of the passengers stuck his head through the crack in the door and started looking outside.
Behind the scenes, other passengers pressed for the results.
“What happened?”
“Did our side win?”
When he craned his neck again, his face became thoughtful. Moreover, the pupils lost focus. It seemed like he had witnessed something shocking.
“Fuck, we’re in big trouble.”
“Are you saying it’s a big deal?”
Everyone became anxious at his words.
“Everyone is dead. Now that the enemy is pissed, we…”
He couldn’t finish his sentence. This is because someone outside grabbed the back of the head and pulled it.
“Ahh!”
After a while, an enemy appeared where he had disappeared.
A torn scar from the mouth to below the left ear. And the sharp eyes looked very vicious.
The way he was leaning against the threshold and tampering with it was not the kind of skill he had used to looting once or twice.
“Now everyone? From now on, all you have to do is put down your luggage and come out. Before I cut it up with this bakdo. “It’s so easy, right?”
It was even more frightening to see him talking privately with a harsh expression.
Passengers trembled and went out to the deck one by one.
Jin-san Yu and her granddaughter, who were in the back, had no choice but to walk out behind Dong-gu.
-Grandpa, what should we do now?
The Jeonum of Yuseol meant whether it was okay to use martial arts.
However, there was no need to reveal one’s identity.
– What are you worried about when you have this guy?
– Mr. Dong-gu? You can’t fight.
– Grandpa has an idea, so just do as he tells you from now on.
A meaningful smile appeared on the faces of the two as they exchanged messages.
When I came out of the cabin, it was a sight to behold.
Five swordsmen rolling around on the floor, brutally murdered. Moreover, several of the crew members seemed to have been beheaded as an example.
The number of enemies visible on the deck was about ten. As expected, the number of people was not large.
The Yellow River’s enemies travel in small, elite groups on small, high-speed ships with horns. It must have been an unavoidable choice to avoid the punitive force organized by the central army.
“It’ll be okay. “Don’t be scared, just stay behind you.”
Dong-gu reassured the children by covering them behind his back.
Jinsan Yu, who was observing the situation from behind, had a happy expression on his face.
‘That guy indeed. His martial arts skills are mediocre, but he’s still quite strong.’
Passengers flocking to the ship trembled with fear.
On one side, sailors, including the captain, were kneeling and bowing their heads.
At that time, a male enemy with a scar on his face glanced at the crowd and threatened them with a sword.
“Now, let’s all take off our clothes and go into the river. I’ll give you half price. “He who needs help raises his hand.”
The passengers were agitated and suddenly embarrassed by his shocking words.
Swimming itself is impossible in the yellow rapids of the Yellow River. The moment you jump in, you are guaranteed to die.
“Three worlds….”
“Please save me, I will get better!”
“I will give you everything I have. Please…”
No matter how much he tried, the enemies remained steadfast.
They were stationed everywhere and made harsh threats to the passengers.
At that time, one of the bandits muttered as he wiped the blood off his sword.
“We in the Red Kings have rules. There are only two choices for you. Either jump yourself or be thrown for dead.”
Jeokwangdan (赤王團). Their notoriety was very famous due to the number of people active in the Yellow River.
Regardless of whether they were merchants or travelers, they plundered at will and were one of the government military’s top priority targets for subjugation.
“….”
It was a time when the passengers were engulfed in fear.
Suddenly, from somewhere, a child’s scream rang in the ears of the enemies.
“Hey, you bastards with no morals! “Isn’t it too much to take away one’s life after giving one’s wealth?”
The entire deck was engulfed in silence and all eyes focused on one place.
Behind the back of a disheveled-looking middle-aged man. Isn’t this a little kid narrowing his eyebrows?
“Why are you like this?”
Dong-gu looked at Yujin Mountain in great confusion. Wasn’t this a situation that couldn’t be guaranteed even if one begged for one’s life? Now it was not a good idea to die gracefully.
The faces of the enemies distorted as if they were waiting.
One person couldn’t stand it anymore and started fussing and rolling his eyes.
“The chick that just squeaked, come forward. “You died today.”
Watching him fuss, it seemed like he was planning on slaughtering him.
Yu Jin-san secretly hid behind Dong-gu’s back with his granddaughter.
As he approached, Dong-gu reflexively blocked his way.
“But isn’t this too much for kids?”
“Move. “Before you fall.”
Although he was understandably scared, Dong-gu did not back down.
Although he came from an unknown dojo in a rural town, he was a martial artist who had practiced martial arts for ten years.
The problem was that since I had no practical experience, I did not know where my skills were.
“If you come any closer, I won’t say anything.”
At his words, several enemies clutched their bellies.
“Fuha!”
“ha ha ha!”
“Today, our brother Gwangho met the right person. “Giggle, giggle.”
Sujeok, who was called Gwangho, rolled his eyes at the sarcasm of his colleagues.
“How can a third-rate bastard not even know the topic?”
As he approached, Yoo Seol grabbed Dong Gu’s waist and spoke urgently.
“You can do it, mister. Please protect us!”
Dong-gu nodded with a solemn expression.
There was no reason to back down. Isn’t it the same whether you die this way or that way anyway?
I’ve been practicing martial arts all my life, but I can’t die without even trying it.
“Don’t worry, guys.”
He raised both hands in front of his face and swung his fist at the approaching enemy. He mustered up courage and struck first.
However, it was a slow and clumsy blow.
The enemy sneered and tried to dodge to the side. But that was just a thought, and strangely enough, my body did not move as I wanted.
“Huh!?”
It was as if a ghost was grabbing the hair and pulling it in the direction the fist was coming.
Did a miracle happen? Dong-gu’s fist hit the enemy called Gwang-ho exactly under the chin.
Wow!
It didn’t seem like a very strong shock.
The enemy vowed to counterattack again and strike down Dong-gu. Until your feet rise from the ground.
‘…omg?’
The floating water drop was already flying towards the deck.
He was looking at Dong-gu’s back with an expression of bewilderment. The sight of a girl gently stretching out her fern-like hand.
“What! Why is this happening!?”
Without a chance to explain his injustice, he flew three miles and disappeared into the current of the Yellow River.
with a plop-!
“…?”
The enemy was visibly embarrassed by the incomprehensible phenomenon.
“What is it?”
“What happened now?”
“Brother Kwang-ho was harmed?”
Only the yin-yang twin monsters knew the truth.
The moment Dong-gu extends his fist to the opponent’s chin. Yu Seol released intangible energy, pulled the water drop, and then pushed it back.
It was a method that would have been unthinkable if not for fire protection.
“What kind of trick are you doing now, you bastard?”
Dong-gu glanced at his fist for a moment with a puzzled expression.
Although he didn’t understand the English language, he felt more confident than before.
“Anyone can just come near me!”
“You’re being damned.”
Another enemy started running towards him.
Park Do moves in a straight line toward Dong-gu’s uvula.
It was a fairly sharp and accurate blow, but it was not the yin-yang twin monster to be watched.
When Yu Jin-san snapped his fingers, an intangible wind came out and pushed his wrist away.
The end of Parkdo where the angle is wrong. The sharp blade of the sword missed Dong-gu’s neck by an inch.
Paang-!
‘…what?’
The enemy looked like he couldn’t believe that his attack had missed.
And belatedly, Dong-gu’s counterattack began.
Dong-gu is pushing its power towards the enemy’s abdomen. And behind him, Yu Seol was gently placing her cute palms on her waist.
The profound true energy that emanated from Yu Seol’s palm seeped into his bloodstream and was released again through his fist.
At that moment, something amazing happened.
Kwaaang-!!!
“Ugh!”
The screams of the enemy were similar to the sound of a pig being decapitated.
It was a power that could not even be compared to what it was a moment ago.
The enemy quickly moved away from the ship, as if blown away by a gust of wind.
with a plop-!
“Wow! Uncle Dong-gu is amazing!”
Yoo Seol naturally held onto Dong-gu’s waist from behind.
A shiver running through my whole body. Dong-gu was already out of his mind.
I couldn’t understand what it was, but an incredible power that I felt for the first time in my life was shaking in the blood vessels of my entire body.
His eyes changed as if he had taken a hallucinogenic drug.
“Guys. It seems like there is some kind of power hidden in me. “I’m feeling a great energy inside my body right now.”
When the situation reached this point, the enemy began to panic.
It had to be because two colleagues who knew their skills well were hit by one blow in a row.
The confidence he had a moment ago seemed to have disappeared.
“Who are you? “Reveal your identity.”
Dong-gu grabbed the sword that Sujeok had dropped.
I couldn’t control the power that was surging.
Is it because of an unknown force circling his bloodstream? Suddenly, a lot of strength went into his shoulders.
“I am the Dong-gu of the world’s best!!”
At that moment, a milky white light came out from the tip of the sword and enveloped the blade.
“Do-do-gi?”
“This can’t be right….”
Doggi (刀氣). It was a technique that could not be used unless you were a peak expert. And it’s at such a clear level.
Dong-gu himself flinched in surprise.
‘omg! How can I do pottery?’
I couldn’t understand the English sentence. I could only feel that an unknown power was flowing out of my fingertips and infusing energy into the Tao.
At that time, Yoo Seol, who was holding his waist from behind, snorted.
“I’m scared~”
This wasn’t the same Dong-gu as before. With his eyes full of energy, he already had the dignified expression of an absolute expert.
“Just trust the man. Because these guys are all gone today.”
No matter how great their opponents were, they could not be a match for a master who spewed out pottery like taffy. Feeling fear, they instinctively changed their stance.
“I didn’t know you, Daehyeop….”
“I’ll leave like this, so please let go of your anger.”
When in your lifetime have you ever heard the name Daehyup? There was already nothing visible to Dong-gu’s eyes.
He frowned and glared at his enemies.
“Those who don’t want to be cut into pieces should get into the river immediately. Do it!”
