Chapter 1729

The main reason why Charlie wanted to leave Isaac and Alberts group was so he could operate by himself. He wanted to test out the ninja who was tracking him. He wanted to know how strong the ninja who has been tailing him all this while was.

Moreover, he knew very well that the other party had followed him to the hotel and he was able to theorize that the opponent would have the mindset that since Charlie had checked into the hotel, he would definitely return to the hotel. Therefore, they would not track him down with all four men.

It was not that Charlie was afraid of being surrounded by the group. Instead, to Charlie, it seemed like Mr. Takahashi might be lacking in manpower since only four of them had followed him all the way from Tokyo. If he were to sweep all of them under the rug, then the rest of his days in Japan would be very boring.

Therefore, Charlie was hoping for them to separate so he could take them out one by one.

Only by taking them out individually like this would he be able to instill fear into their minds. This will also induce fear into Machi’s mental state.

As soon as he was leaving the hotel, Charlie could already tell that there was only one person stalking him.

Therefore, he began planning. He would first get rid of this single person.

The person who was tailing him was known as Fujibayashi Aota, a distant relative of the Fujibayashi family. When he was young, he would follow Masatetsu’s father in order to learn ninjutsu. Therefore, he was comparable to being a brother of Masatetsu’s.

Among the four of Masatetsu’s brothers, Aota was not the strongest in terms of strength but nevertheless, he excelled in concealment and tracking. He had been in the industry for many years and no matter who the target was, they would never be able to escape Aota.

Aota followed Charlie all the way and tracked him carefully across the bustling downtown and the highly dense residential area, Aota kept a distance of approximately one to two hundred meters away from Charlie.

His figure was very well concealed and his aura was sealed away. People with less power might find it difficult to notice his presence.

As soon as they left the city, Charlie walked towards the park by the river.

As it was night, the weather was cold and because it was the suburbs, the park was empty.

Seeing Charlie entering the park, Aota, who was following him, just walked into the park without any hesitation.

As soon as Charlie entered the park, he immediately disappeared. Never in his wildest dream had he ever expected that Charlie, who was under his nose all this while, would just vanish from sight.

Aota, who was a well-trained ninja, had very sensitive hearing, sight, smell, and touch. His senses were polished to be sharper than an ordinary person’s. He could hear sounds as well as see things that ordinary people couldn’t.

His most powerful skill would be his extraordinary hearing skills.

Ninjas track their targets in the dark of the night and thus rely on their hearing most of the time.

Aota could hear the sounds of crickets crawling in the grass and the movements of ants crawling out of their dens within the radius of two to three hundred meters.

Because of his good sense of hearing, he could even clearly hear the breaths and heartbeat of everyone within a five hundred meter radius.

When a person is hiding, he can try to stay still and remain silent but his breath and heartbeat cannot be concealed. Therefore, it was impossible for ordinary people to escape Aota’s surveillance.

As for Charlie, who was still within his sight and hearing just moments ago, to suddenly disappear without a trace, no footsteps, no heartbeat, and no breaths…was impossible!

To hold your breath for a short period of time is quite simple but to be able to stop your own heart from beating? That would clearly be something far surpassing the capabilities of the human race!

This made Aota anxious and worried, mainly because he found this event very unusual!

He immediately suppressed his breath and pushed his listening to the utmost limit. Without moving, he stood there listening, taking in every sound from his surround very carefully.

At the same time, he pulled out two black shurikens.

The shuriken is one of the most commonly used weapons by Japanese ninjas. This weapon is about fifteen centimeters in length with symmetrical blades on both sides and a short grip which looks like a dagger.
