Chapter 15
"Ding!"
Shisui caught the blade.
He had already seen through Saitama's routine—relentless slashes with impressive speed, but lacking deadly precision or unpredictability.
The angles lacked killing intent, and the strikes weren't sharp or committed enough to break his defense.
Shisui could already predict the next move: Saitama would retreat slightly after this clash—and in that moment, he would counter.
"Boom!"
Saitama followed through with a downward slash aimed at Shisui's sword hand. The strike was met with the flat of Shisui's blade, but the force rattled his grip.
Startled by the intensity, Shisui let go momentarily. With his left hand, he quickly reached into the pouch strapped to his thigh, pulled out a kunai, and slashed toward Saitama's right wrist.
The goal: force him to drop his blade and reset the fight to even terms.
Saitama released his grip on the sword and immediately launched a kick to Shisui's chest.
"Boom!"
