Logan stood quietly before the burning ruins, seemingly oblivious to the encircling enemies.

Several armored vehicles, two combat helicopters...

It was only under the protection of these heavily armored war machines that they dared confront Wolverine. It was the fear in their hearts that allowed them to remain hidden, their terror not fully exposed before Logan's eyes.

Whoosh! 

The Adamantium claws slid from Logan's fingers with a sharp scrape against his bones, gleaming coldly under the moonlight.

Logan slowly turned, his calm face slowly contorting into a grimace. A roar, long suppressed, erupted from deep within his throat.

"Die!"

He crouched low like a wild beast, charging towards the enemy.

"Fire! Smash his skull!"

Agent Zero sneered, folding his arms as he watched the impending battle.

The scene of a cornered beast fighting back was one of his favorites to watch.

Rat-a-tat-tat! 

Bullets rained down upon Logan like a violent storm.

Logan raised his claws in front of his face, his body moving swiftly to dodge the bullets. When he couldn't avoid them, he allowed the bullets to strike him, unbothered.

Blood splattered, and his body was torn by the projectiles.

But Logan didn't seem to feel the pain. Instead, he flashed a wicked grin, showing his teeth.

The next second, he was already within a few meters of an armored vehicle, leaping toward it. His Adamantium claws pierced the vehicle's armor as if it were paper, tearing it apart with ease.

"Heh!"

Logan sneered. Amid the soldier's screams, he shredded the man's body with a single swipe. He casually severed the legs of another soldier who had been firing at him from atop the vehicle, and as the soldier fell, Logan impaled his skull with a swift strike.

"Give him a strong one, let's see how much he can take!"

At Agent Zero's command, a missile launched from the helicopter, heading straight for the armored vehicle below.

Logan's expression shifted. He leapt off the vehicle just in time.

Boom! 

The explosion instantly disabled the armored vehicle, sending Logan flying with the shockwave.

Logan rolled on the ground but quickly regained his footing, ripping a chunk of metal off his chest.

Pfft! 

He spat out a mouthful of blood, then glared at the remaining armored vehicles and the helicopter hovering above. He made a throat-slashing gesture toward Agent Zero.

Agent Zero's eyes twitched slightly as he watched Logan, then barked, "Increase the distance, don't let him get close! You fools!"

The remaining three armored vehicles quickly moved into action. They circled Logan, and as he charged toward one, the other two began firing relentlessly at him. When Logan shifted his focus, the other two turned and fired at him again.

Logan, without any long-range weapons, could only dodge in a desperate attempt to survive.

For a moment, Logan was like a living target.

He roared in anger but could only continue dodging the bullets, struggling to find an opening.

"Beast is just a beast, relying only on claws, huh?"

Agent Zero sneered, watching Logan below with satisfaction.

Meanwhile, hidden in the distance, Mike's eyes glinted coldly as he observed the armored vehicles and helicopters. A sinister smile crept across his face.

"So, you want to kill us, huh? Blow up our house, huh?"

As he muttered these words, a card appeared at his fingertips.

"Too bad I can't manifest modern weapons. If I could, I'd just throw a Little Boy or a Big Ivan at anyone who pisses me off," Mike murmured, his voice tinged with regret.

His gaze sharpened as his attention focused on the card in his hand.

On the front of the card, a knife was depicted. On the back, there was additional information about the weapon.

*Name:* Senbonzakura (Thousand Cherry Blossoms)

*Item Description:* This is a Zanpakuto, a sword that has the same lethality to souls. When its release phrase is spoken, it unleashes its true power.

*Release Phrase:*

Initial Release: Scatter, Senbonzakura. 

*Note:* When the blade of Senbonzakura transforms into fluttering cherry blossoms, it is a breathtaking scene—and the moment of your death.

With a slight flick of his finger, the card disappeared, replaced by a beautiful sword that materialized out of thin air, where the card had vanished.

Gripping Senbonzakura tightly, Mike muttered, "If only I could achieve Bankai."

With his current abilities, due to insufficient materialization power, he could only summon the initial release of a Zanpakuto. After the initial release, the materialization time of the Zanpakuto drastically decreases.

At present, the sword would remain for two minutes, enough time to handle a battle. Besides, he had other cards at his disposal.

Over the past three years, Mike had spent his spare time creating materialization cards. He had so many now that he couldn't be bothered to count them; more would come with time.

With the Zanpakuto in hand, Mike walked toward the battlefield.

"What's that?"

Agent Zero, who had been observing the battle, immediately saw Mike, who should have been dead, and his heart skipped a beat. Before he could react, he witnessed a scene that made him gasp in shock.

Mike, holding the Zanpakuto, slowly advanced toward the battlefield.

"Scatter, Senbonzakura!"

With the low chant, the Zanpakuto released its initial form.

The chilling blade shattered quietly in the moonlight, its fragments floating like petals carried by the wind, dancing in the light.

"Heh!"

Seeing the armored vehicles still maintaining their distance, Mike tugged the corner of his mouth upward and lightly swung the sword. The fluttering petals, like ribbons in the wind, drifted toward an armored vehicle.

The tiny blades, guided by Mike's intent, sliced through the vehicle's armor, leaving deep gashes. As they passed, they tore through the vehicle, and the two soldiers inside, their eyes still filled with the stunning crimson hue, were shredded by the seemingly delicate "petals," their throats torn out before they drifted toward the next vehicle.

"Is that a mutant? What ability is this?"

Agent Zero muttered, his heart suddenly tightening.

On the ground, Mike lifted his gaze to meet Zero's eyes, his expression indifferent as though staring at a corpse.

He was angry.

With a swift motion, Mike flipped his hand, and the sniper rifle appeared. Without hesitation, Agent Zero aimed and pulled the trigger.

But at the instant he squeezed the trigger, Mike, who had been maintaining his assassin time, had already evaded the bullet. He then swung the hilt of his sword, sending the blades of Senbonzakura flying toward another armored vehicle. Under Agent Zero's furious gaze, the vehicle was torn apart.

At that moment, Logan's pressure was greatly reduced. He glanced at Mike in surprise, nodded to him, then charged forward, meeting the bullets from the last armored vehicle head-on. Amid the soldiers' screams, he shredded them apart.

Agent Zero's face darkened, and he muttered, "Ascend, and destroy them!"

Before his words could fall, he saw Mike swing the hilt of his sword, now devoid of a blade, toward him. His eyes widened in horror, and he shrieked, "Ascend! Get out of the way!"
