Chapter 48: The Hum!
Satoshi, seated in the forge with his eyes closed in meditation, made his decision. Given the current situation, if he continued to wait, Shunichi and Hidetsugu would likely die on this mission.
Without hesitation, Satoshi activated the Zanpakutō Resonance function and took control of Suzumushi's communication.
[Gojo Shunichi, can you stop treating me like an ordinary katana?]
Shunichi, still sprinting for his life, suddenly froze.
A voice had just echoed inside his mind.
That brief moment of distraction nearly cost him, he felt the cursed spirit rapidly closing the gap.
"Shunichi, don't lose focus! Hold on—the association should have noticed something is wrong by now!"
Yagyū Hidetsugu, suppressing the metallic taste of blood rising from his injured organs, shouted a warning.
Even though the situation was dire, it still wasn't time to give up completely.
Hearing the voice, Shunichi quickly snapped out of his daze and continued running. He had no idea where the voice had come from.
However, after recalling the words just spoken, a bold guess formed in his mind.
