However, as firearms began evolving more and more, this form of weapon gradually withdrew from history. 6
Unexpectedly, the Japanese ninjas were actually still using this kind of weapon.
As soon as he was moving the sole of his shoes, Charlie realized this guy was actually preparing to unlock the trigger for the dagger in his sole. 3
Moreover, he had already completed about eighty percent of the entire 8-shaped movement. As long as h e moved another one centimetre in the right direction, then the dagger would suddenly pop out from the tip o f his shoes!
At this time, Aota had already made up his mind. As soon as he found the right opportunity, he would use the shuriken in his hand to attract the other party’s attention first. When Charlie's attention was fixed on the shuriken, he would immediately launch an attack against him using the dagger on his ninja shoes. 2
When that time arrived, all four sharp blades would come at the same time, attacking from top and bottom. As long as one of the blades stabbed Charlie, then he would undoubtedly die! 4
Although Machi had already instructed them not to kill Charlie first, Aota felt that Charlie was already threatening his own life and safety. So, he could not b
e bothered about Machi's instructions anymore. Instead, he felt that the most important thing at this time was for him to kill Charlie first! 5
After making up his mind, Aota began to try and attract Charlie’s attention. He said, "Sir, just ask me any questions that you want to. I will answer your questions truthfully!”
Charlie nodded before he asked, "Are the four of you the strongest ninjas working for the Takahashi family?"
"Yes."
Charlie frowned before he replied contemptuously, "I don't think that the four of you are that skillful or capable. Isn't your ability just throwing a few flying daggers? Moreover, your accuracy is not even good enough. No one would even stop to watch you if you were to perform out on the streets with this kind of skill in Oskia. You'll just miss the boat." 8
Feeling humiliated, Aota blurted out, "Nonsense! My shuriken had always been very accurate. I can even cut off the wings of a flying fly, within a hundred meters!"
Charlie laughed before he said, "So powerful?"
Aota replied confidently, "Of course! If you don't believe me, I can show you!" 4
Charlie smiled contemptuously as he said, "Alright then. You can start your performance now."
Aota gritted his teeth and he realized that his opportunity had finally arisen. He sneered, "Okay! Make sure that you watch properly then!”
After he spoke, his hands suddenly shook and the two shuriken in his hands flew towards Charlie immediately.
