They must have spent a ridiculous amount of money on those small beads because the amount of power they had was no joke. Considering that I could still feel the impact through the protective strong aura, if that blast hit me unobstructed, I would have died.

White powder smoke enveloped me and blocked my vision, and I heard the sound of additional manrikis flying towards me from all directions once more. I closed my eyes since I couldn't see anyway, relying on my sixth sense to shoot out sword auras and knock away the manrikis. Kangkangkangkang-!

I heard the sound of my sword auras cutting the manrikis, and the chains that lost their weights fell to the floor. I swung my sword and dispersed the smoke with the sword wind, but a manriki wound around my arm as soon as my line of sight became clear.

I pulled at the chain around my arm, blocking the electric current as much as I could with the protective strong aura.

"Let go of the chain!"...
