( 當初四大劍士中，碩果僅存的死亡劍士，趕往公園這邊，想要為童天雷分攤一點壓力，好把伊凡斯的命給留下來 )
等到戰神伊凡斯把桌上的蛋糕掃進肚裡，又像牛飲一般一口喝乾了整杯咖啡，他順手抓了幾張咖啡廳提供的上好紙巾，擦擦嘴，順便抹了一把臉，然後抓起那根綠竹鞭，站了起來。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXZIHFDSEd
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUQfoTG54J
他看著童天雷，語氣簡單而直接：「希望你別讓我失望。」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxXtBAnKs9
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcCO5swlv3
童天雷也剛好放下空杯，跟著起身，回嘴道：「這句話應該我說才對。你在外頭浪蕩這麼久，鬼知道有沒有荒廢武藝。希望別撐不過幾招就被我打得滿地找牙，否則失望的可就是我了。」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQRNih6aNz
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPLkefQUoo
伊凡斯哈哈大笑，轉身就往牆角那處他親手打破的缺口走了出去。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iHs2TdI3Q
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfNEFEYzWk
童天雷則先走向一旁的店長結帳，才大步跟了上去。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh4GPhQk9M
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXC6CkrLOs
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD9D3PSgEz
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1htLmNgQrE
這家名為「星戰」的連鎖咖啡廳旁邊正好就是一處市政公園。公園中央是一片開闊的大草地，簡直像是為格鬥量身打造。伊凡斯自然不客氣，直奔草地而去。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFdWHcfgWj
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRG3ZUUlnOf
他的粗壯身影與傳說戰績早已傳遍烏托邦。自從他突破山壁缺口、連斬四名劍士，官方便立即將他的影像全域廣播，因此他才剛踏入草地，四周的市民便已認出這尊殺神，紛紛拉著孩子閃得遠遠的。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAngW64XHme
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9pbvhAZdY
童天雷也隨後走進草地，伊凡斯便對他喊道：「這一仗，是為虎克、泰勒、布托三位好友報仇——你，準備好接受我的『款待』了嗎？」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0Wq5YzX3F
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGm5U1xbrC
話音未落，他手中綠竹鞭已如雷電般劈來。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREIvW24pIO
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pG8qIIYF1
童天雷則舉起那把包覆諾雅金的金黃鋼刀正面迎擊，兩人兵器一撞，發出一聲巨響！25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGA9jkxqqV
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrTVX2N4Jp
『噹！』金鐵交鳴，火星四射。接下來更是招招緊接，叮叮噹噹聲幾乎沒有半點停歇。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2Iwp5gGFI
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BMX8b8igO
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvWkt4sspq
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYhIgfl8hq
與上次的對戰不同，那時雙方互不熟悉，招式之間多有試探。而這次，他們早已熟悉彼此的節奏與風格。事實上，剛才在咖啡廳那場嘴砲，不過是雙方在心裡默默回憶對方的戰法。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VTu6kf3tS
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjeDGyaXRW
如今對決開始，已無需探路，直接進入猛攻模式。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPyIQcf28Q
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxxUkbhqLT
原本公園外還有不少圍觀群眾，把兩人當街頭表演在看。但隨著周圍不在攻擊範圍內的樹木也接連炸裂倒塌，甚至波及了幾名圍觀者，現場才終於騷動起來，大批人馬驚恐撤離。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQcIKcRzZT
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbg8k0PLfzd
此時，烏托邦軍方也終於趕到，迅速將公園整個包圍起來。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs7f5vWYLw
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7FAtn6cQ2
兩名交戰者其實早已察覺軍方動靜，只是伊凡斯的威名在外，那些軍人也不敢輕舉妄動，生怕成為第一批被打成肉泥的倒霉鬼。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJhjBXNPdW
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL9HyhOVCS
直到有人發現童天雷竟能與伊凡斯正面對撼不落下風，軍方指揮官才敢下令全面封鎖現場。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzsYxIZ7u3

在不遠處前進鎮公所門口，剛抵達的是北部軍區新任軍長——布羅琴科少將。他轉頭對直屬旅長塔西雅上校問道：「不是已經通知駿馬劍士了嗎？怎麼人還沒到？」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqjlYEplBl
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQjO69DSQ1
塔西雅神色緊張：「報告軍長，依時程他應該早就該到了，可至今仍無消息！」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0Cvw1KBj5
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVldrAPEZvd
布羅琴科探口氣，冷聲說：「克魯曼家族的臉都快丟光了，這可是他翻身的機會。他若再錯過，別說年底選舉，連劍士身份都要保不住。」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrW8AOFGoB
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdWx4qXsoO
駿馬劍士上回眼睜睜看著戰爭劍士陣亡，竟然縮在哨長室內不敢應戰，引起舉國公憤。連克魯曼家族也不好為他開脫。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDwvOWSfAd
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotsLGt38qi
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9LVs3MELq
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jvLR7RwQ7
正此時，一名中校前來報告：「軍長，死亡劍士抵達！」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLknzOYjqSG
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5w9Jek0wF
布羅琴科急忙迎上前。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8IIdE4nYZ
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTxjxxceDJ
這位死亡劍士上回若非左手異變能力者韓妮的相助，也恐怕難逃一死。他是除了駿馬劍士以外唯一倖存的戰士。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAwpreRsqb
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAXWtFnf4z
布羅琴科少將露出久違的笑容：「長官，您不是負傷了？應該還在休養吧。」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMk6SX9Aws7
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHWsnNcXDc
死亡劍士搖搖頭，默默走向公園邊緣，目光緊盯戰局。看了一會後才問：「駿馬劍士到了？」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YWr1zY2zn
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CJpBySu9Y
「該到了，但還沒出現。」布羅琴科一臉無奈。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡty7pjiT5qJ
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cqCGifmFG
死亡劍士聽罷臉色沉重。他心知肚明，這場戰是駿馬劍士挽救聲望的唯一機會——不論是戰勝還是戰死，重點是「出面」。現在卻遲遲未現身，簡直糟透了。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcoyyskMTc
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUyUDQ4nLp
他與駿馬劍士同屬歐格奈黨，在合理範圍內他不介意拉對方一把。但對方若表現過於離譜，牽連到自己的聲望，他也不會再出手。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZX1TY7peB
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMLZuybYN6
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZulfNlBLQ
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZHOiLtpOl
此刻，場中戰局漸起變化。外行人或許看不出來，但死亡劍士這等高手早已察覺端倪。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvVJQKVxTi
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxTSB1vQw6
方才雙方武器正面對撞連續十餘招，雖然最後一擊看似平手，但伊凡斯其實略處下風！25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjp4qPbrr9
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkCE5fHpKb
正因如此，伊凡斯才放棄了純力量的硬拚，改以虛招與誘敵之法應對。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXrJUhax1l
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIBuoX7xfk
童天雷自然也察覺對方轉變，神情更顯從容，與伊凡斯展開游擊纏戰。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCyeT8TT7R
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbn4XarVYy
死亡劍士看準時機，緩緩抽出長劍，準備出手夾擊，結束這場曠世之戰。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfSxJZ1Nsm
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbVzPxJHPT
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZpZQZq2L1
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIMqUhkLkl
但就在這時，傳令官又匆匆靠近，低聲在布羅琴科耳邊道：「軍長，總統來了！」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutN7or6LRq
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSczC5pgvSw
聲音雖輕，卻沒能逃過死亡劍士的耳朵。他皺眉道：「現在這節骨眼，總統來湊什麼熱鬧？」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTcPAoB9n6
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhqLyZ8mgU
飛艇從天而降，豪華座艙在十字路口緩緩降落，禁衛軍簇擁而出。總統波嘉妮與她的丈夫率先下機，令人意外的是——駿馬劍士也赫然在列！25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEZuP4wGXG
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gMzsOsjwF
原來這傢伙竟是先跑去邀請總統親臨現場，好讓自己以「保護總統」之姿再度亮相。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcx4Nrf9ar
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ135cmNFKAC
死亡劍士與布羅琴科互望一眼，眉頭深鎖。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4B2dk7vvv
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsyidXw7Z0
那些原本為死亡劍士與軍長準備的主位，如今全數讓給波嘉妮總統與她的配偶。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LlazFrJeb
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykyzxfPknl
她現年五十，年輕有為，野心勃勃。若想繼續連任，年底評比就勢在必得。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4u67pb1Cjp
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9zTKgSXDM
以歐格奈黨內部估算，目前與沃克黨積分差距僅有三到五萬分，極為接近。但若伊凡斯這筆大功被童天雷奪走，那『沃克』必然勝出。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsQ8VgOPgL
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5V2J6n2f4U
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ611eKKFZps
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMYuf6PTOZ
為此，波嘉妮轉頭問死亡劍士：「戰況如何？」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JdDSiwgkQ
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ506rLIQr0U
「雙方交戰已逾一小時，十分鐘前伊凡斯在正面對撞中略落下風，戰局開始傾斜。」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0T78KSNvf
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUWPGe7HLN
波嘉妮聞言與駿馬劍士對視一眼，隨即微笑說道：「死亡劍士您尚在恢復期，這場戰就交給駿馬劍士帶罪立功吧！」25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCx36cIv00
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ce6yeONgX
布羅琴科難掩狐疑：這安排未免太過明目張膽。但死亡劍士心中明白——波嘉妮與駿馬劍士皆出自克魯曼家族，若駿馬劍士失勢，整個家族恐將被清算。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgNY6R9yCh
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIo2rKHPIcr
他沒有多說，只是靜靜守在總統身旁，維護其安全。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRyQfyNY3P
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFV5TZtwiq
駿馬劍士恭敬地行了個優雅的禮，然後向死亡劍士點頭致意，轉身走向戰場。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLnzcSqsFN
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHmTTatXYq
此時場中仍是金鐵交鳴、氣浪翻湧，童天雷與伊凡斯戰得火熱，看起來依然勢均力敵，毫無敗象。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUp3ZFWxSrP
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdByOs70Qs
駿馬劍士站在草地邊緣，沒有貿然出手。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2SFymLx74
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn6U4WGHB8
他在等待——等待那致命的破綻。25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlGREFp1LM
25Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuad8X4V0eb
而這個破綻，即將出現。
這一集的新封面，便是一直想參戰的死亡劍士，及大戰中的童天雷與伊凡斯。
