Dangerous Trip 2

When the next day starts I wake up early and I spend as much time as possible meditating until my parents wake up, after everyone wakes up to go on the trip, we left the inn and went to refuel the wagon with our resources that we had kept in our rooms to prevent everything from being stolen, me, my father and Akemi settle in the wagon and my mother starts to drive towards the exit of the village when we are safely out my mother follows the path to the bridge.

After a long 5 hour drive to the border by wagon, we could already see the bridge, I was very moved by the situation because that bridge for our family represented a possible freedom that we would not have if we were still in Timber's country.

As we're about to cross the bridge 5 guards intercept our path, I go on high alert in case a fight breaks out.

"We are doing a routine check for anyone who is leaving the country, you could identify yourself"

"I am Katsuo this is my wife Hana this is my son Hayato and she is my second wife Mayumi" says my father calmly

"Let's just do a search now in the wagon you could get out" says the guard with malice written on his face

'This is a trap, do they know who we are?' I think

My dad gives us a serious look and tells us to go downstairs so the guards can check the wagon. As soon as we go down my father asks us to stay next to him which we do.

When the guard finishes "checking" our stuff for more than 2 hours, as a consequence throwing all our supplies on the floor leaving my mother with a hateful expression. They approach my father again.

"Everything is ok, you can go back on your journey" said a guard who appeared to be the leader, holding back a laugh.

"Thanks so we're leaving" said my father approaching the guard leader extending his left hand, this really intrigued me at the time because I didn't know that the custom of greeting with the right hand was not the same in this world.

At the moment the guard extends his right hand by mistake and comes back extending his right hand I realize something was wrong, but I didn't know what my father intended to do. When my father was about to greet the guard my father at the last centimeter lunges with both hands grabbing the enemy and strengthens his body with Chakra, at high speed my father invests his knee towards the guard's groin giving him a knee in the balls in the next moment I can hear the guard scream in pain and I see him fall to his knees, my father immediately draws his sword and cuts the guard's head off, the other guards who saw what happened were stunned.

As I realize that from that moment it was kill or be killed and there were still 4 guards left alive I quickly strengthen my body with chakra to increase my speed to the extreme I quickly generate a Chakra Ball and appear next to a Guard that had not yet entered state alert, The moment he turns his head to look at me I attack him on the head with the Chakra Ball that has the power of a C-Rank Jutsu at close range that destroy half of his head in the next moment, smearing my whole face with blood and brain remains.

When the other 3 guards look at me who had just killed one of his companions, my father takes advantage of this moment to try to do the same, when my father appears next to the other guard who was to the right of the one who was next to another guard and tries to make a horizontal cut to try to kill one and injure the other with the same cut. The guards noticing my father who had approached draw their swords at the same moment the guard who was on the right enters a defensive position thus managing to react to my father's speed and successfully defending his attack but at the same moment he is thrown 3 meters from the ground due to the force of the attack.

As I was seeing everything at a slower speed and using my battle instinct given to me by being a Saiyan I increase my speed again with Chakra and take advantage of the moment that the guard that was thrown in the air, as the guard didn't know how to fly and also I didn't know any cloning Jutsu to dodge my attack I draw my sword and give him a lunge followed by a stab in the heart from the back, quickly removing the sword from the spot so that the cut blood vessels start to shorten his life, I join both hands and I slam my hands to his head hard sending him speeding to the ground.

Being thrown at high speed towards the ground raising dust and generating a small crater around it I go down to the ground and go to check if my opponent was still alive, when I was about to find out if my opponent was still alive, my instincts scream danger when next to me the third guard appears and throws me a horizontal cut that I react in the same instant and block as the difference between our forces rivaled you could see sparks during the clash between our swords.

*Takeshi view*

The moment I threw a guard who had blocked my attack in time I focused my attention on the guard who was to his right and was getting ready to clash with me, we exchanged a few quick sword swings and measured our forces which looked almost identical. , when I notice the third guard walk towards the guard who had been knocked to the ground by my son with a punch in the air. I try to go towards him when my path is blocked by the guard who was in front of me, unable to help my son.

"Ha HA Ha your son is dead now you don't have to worry his death will be slow our leader will take care of him" says the guard who was laughing

"How can this guard be your leader I killed your leader! "I said not believing your words

"Well you killed a guard, but how could you know he was our leader? he was actually only the third strongest in our group not our leader you killed the wrong guy" says the guard who gripped his sword tightly and ran towards me

We exchange several blows when the guy in front of me changes his fighting pattern and manages to cut my cheek. I take a few steps back to take distance because if I continued to exchange attacks with him eventually my enemy would be able to seriously injure me and I still hadn't fully recovered and was running out of energy.

As I couldn't risk fighting like that or I'd end up dead so I run to the other side of the bridge and head towards the trees seeing my behavior the guard starts following me sigh of relief because he was dumb enough not to kidnap my wife and your friend in the process and end up using them.

When I was running between the trees I took out of my pocket a piece of paper that cost me dearly and that I had bought in the village where the Hanako clan was connected, I put it away again and wait for an opportunity to use it, the paper for what I had understood that there was a seal that could be activated and that would then explode as the paper was very expensive, there was only money left to buy just one explosive paper. When my enemy reached me he jumped on me and attacked me vertically defending his attack with a horizontal block I swing my sword to the left pulling his sword out of my direction pushing my opponent away in the process I strengthen my body and jump onto a branch in a tree my enemy jumps again towards the branch of the tree i was on and attacks me again blocking his attack i retaliate the attack with my sword which is also blocked. I charge against my opponent and we exchange several attacks in a row when I change my rhythm and perform a slower attack, thus destabilizing my opponent who was expecting a quick blow, reacting too quickly when he read my moves, making a mistake, thus missing the time to the block trying to correct the mistake he made he comes back to block my attack but his brain subconsciously reacts in a slow way following the pattern of my movements as i managed to fool his reasoning i quickly cut his arm off. The guard screams in pain and grabs with his left hand where his already severed arm was. I quickly take the explosive paper out of my pocket and put it on his body and kick his body away from the tree branch. Signaling to trigger the explosion, I shout:

"KATSU!!!"

A small explosion like that envelops my enemy who falls to the ground with his body on fire and a hole in his chest. Confirming that my enemy was dead I run towards the bridge again to find my son badly injured and my wife and Akemi crying with him in her arms.
