John placed his hand on his chest which had no blood pumping through his heart. The only thing thing that was keeping alive was The Ex Sphere. He had to try his best not to allow anyone to rip open his chest and take out the Ex Sphere. The Ex Sphere was a very valuable and rare item. Everyone heard about the Ex Sphere. Grey had all kinds of things that were heard from a book. John got away from the window. John had a headache ever since he fought Cross. Was Cross telling the truth? If Cross was his only flesh and blood he had no reason to fight him. He would revolt against Grey. The family is a family. He had to find out more about Cross. While he thought about Cross Kuma was watching him with suspense. John concentrated aura around his hand which was black.
The Ronin's Location.
The Ronin rode on top of a Giant Eagle. This was not the first time he got offered a job from one of the Councilmen. When The Ronin instructed The Giant Eagle to land down he jumped off landing on his hands. He stood up took a bag from around his back. Inside the bag was a big chunk red veiny meat. He threw the big chunk of red meat out the bag and threw it towards the Giant Eagle. The Giant Eagle opened its mouth catching the big chunk of red meat swallowing it whole. The Ronin walked inside the palace and heading to Grey's throne room. Ronin saw Grey who was eating a full course meal by himself. When Grey saw The Ronin he stopped eating placing down his fork and knife. "It is an honor to see again Ronin." The Ronin sat down and picked up a banana which was red. He peeled the banana and took a big chunk out of it chewing it up until it was mush. He swallowed the mush whole before clearing his throat. "Do what is this mission going to be about this time?" I want you to kill someone for me. A man named Cross Santana. "Almost everyone I sent to take him out never returns." The Ronin ate the rest of the banana and ate the skin. The skin was chewy and tasted like a cherry. "This can be arranged." This isn't the first time I had to kill someone who I heard was strong. But that all changes until I placed my blade against their throat slicing open their neck watching every ounce of blood drip on the floor. Grey handed him a piece of sandpaper with Cross's face on it. " This is his description." The Ronin examined the photo and placed his knife inside of the photo. The Ronin got out of the chair and picked up another red banana. "This will not be a problem." He took the knife out of the photo placing it inside his pocket. Grey looked at The Ronin and said: "Don't doubt yourself." "He is not the type to be taken lightly." The Ronin placed his mask over his face and walked out. "I have never failed anything before in my life." The doors of the throne room closed. The Ronin hopped on the Giant Eagle and made him fly off into the clouds. While in the clouds The Ronin looked at his chest which he had a big scar on. The Ronin got the scar from the most famous most legendary assassin ever, Hanzo Hattori. Hanzo Hattori's location was now unknown but Ronin was inspired by him. Five years ago he fought Hanzo Hattori and lost. Back then, he was just a low life mercenary with nothing to live for. But five years later he became the second-best assassin ever. He swore that one day he would fight Hanzo Hattori once again. He wanted to show him much he improved in five years. The blade he held in his hand was the same blade he had five years ago. That is why the blade looked rusty, stained with blood. He picked it up and shined it in the air. He then threw it as far as he could.
