The white-bearded old man was indeed not an indiscriminate person. He was one of the mercenaries who had the reputation of being the most formidable assassin in the Jenggala Kingdom region. Together with his group that is dubbed as the Five Life-Devil Lifesaving, this old man is the leader of the hit group.
His real name is Ki Lengkara, derived from a small peduhan at the foot of the slopes of Mount Bromo. Young men studied some of the famous black warriors in the eastern Jawadwipa Land before he finally began raising his own name as the number one assassin in Jenggala.
As time went on, the young Lengkara finally met his four friends who had the same interests as him. Call it Nyai Panitis, a young woman who always covered her face with a black veil so that no one ever saw her real face like what it was. This mysterious woman has a high martial ability with her horsetail whip weapon but what is frightening from her is her poison science that is able to kill opponents from a distance. He joined Ki Lengkara after the two were both involved in the assassination attempt against the Duke of Pamotan.
In addition to Nyai Panitis, there is also a fat man with a funny face and always hungry to bring food everywhere. The cute-faced fat man is Gudel which in Javanese means buffalo boy. Although it looks like a fool who only knows to eat, Gudel is very scary especially if he is angry. The fat man was armed with a club of sharp jagged black iron and did not hesitate to impale people who he thought were annoying. Ki Lengkara discovered it while adventuring in the Duchy of Lamajang.
Besides them, there are the twins Supa and Supi. Two twins of different sexes are good at using the sword to be a pair of scary killers. Both of them were helped by Ki Lengkara when he almost died in a row by the soldiers of Pakuwon Tumapel who hunted them after chopping the body of the son Akuwu Tumapel. The two then swore allegiance to continue to follow wherever Ki Lengkara went.
A week ago, someone came to the headquarters of the Five Devil Lifesaving residence at the foot of Mount Kawi to the east. The man came with hundreds of gold coins with an assignment for Ki Lengkara and his friends, killing Yuwaraja Panjalu Prince Mapanji Jayabaya.
Of course Ki Lengkara slightly objected to this task because it is very dangerous. If until they managed to kill Yuwaraja Panjalu, there could be a big uproar in the Kingdom of Panjalu. And it is not impossible that Prabu Bameswara as Maharaja of Panjalu will do everything possible to catch the killer of the crown prince of the Kingdom of Panjalu is alive or dead.
But by the person who always keeps his head down, they get the guarantee that it will never happen. In order to further increase the interest of Ki Lengkara, this person also promised the same prize as hundreds of gold pieces after Ki Lengkara carried out his duties. Due to the insistence of the twins Supa and Supi, Ki Lengkara who wants to retreat from the world of hitmen, accepts this last job as preparation to retreat from the martial world.
From the outskirts of the Kapulungan River, a ferry boat is seen being boarded by Prince Mapanji Jayabaya and his followers began to move across the Kapulungan River which is turbid water. The flow of this large river makes this large crossing boat some sway to and fro but not to make the big boat rolled.
As soon as the ferry boat reached the dock, two crew members immediately jumped onto the dock while carrying rope from melinjo tree bark fiber. The two burly people immediately put a rope on the pole of the crossing pier and then with all their strength to pull it so that the crossing boat can mepet to the dock. 4 their friends immediately helped the two men until the boat managed to dock perfectly at the ferry dock.
One by one the passengers started to get off the ship. Among them is the entourage of Prince Mapanji Jayabaya and his followers. Baratwaja who was tasked with managing finances, immediately paid the cost of crossing those who reached 10 pieces of silver.
Just as Jaka Umbaran's entourage was treading the highway with their horses, the Five Devil Lifters had confronted them with weapons clasped in their hands.
"You Prince Mapanji Jayabaya?", asked Ki Lengkara as he stared intently at Jaka Umbaran who was most similar to the painting brought by the person who hired him.
"If so why? I have no business with you, so do not block the path of the Kisanak" said Jaka Umbaran indifferently.
"Nothing should want you dead. It turns out your attitude is so arrogant.
Five Life-Devoking Devils, advance!!!", as soon as the words of Ki Lengkara were heard, Nyai Panitis, Gudel and the Twins of Supa and Supi immediately shot towards Jaka Umbaran and friends. The soldiers of the crown prince's personal guards immediately drew out their respective weapons and retraced the movements of the Five Life-Attacking Demons with unsheathed weapons.
Thhrraanggg..
Pllaaaakkkkk...
Oouugghhhhhh..!!!
The ten soldiers of the personal guard Yuwaraja Panjalu is apparently not an opponent for the Five Life-Activating Demons. In two waves alone, one soldier was killed at the hands of Gudel because of the practicality of his sharp jagged black iron club. Others fell with wounds on some parts of his body.
Four swordsmen Jaka Umbaran growled loudly before all four darted quickly towards their chosen opponents. Gendol, curious about Gudel's black iron club, lunged at the fat man with his twin mace. Baratwaja and Besur darted towards the Twins Supa and Supi while Resi Simharaja was partly against Nyai Panitis the black veiled woman. A fierce fight between the two opposing camps also broke out and took place alone even though not far apart.
As soon as the four members got the opponent , Ki Lengkara immediately darted quickly towards Jaka Umbaran by slamming his fist towards the young prince. He did not use the spear that became his mainstay weapon because he saw Jaka Umbaran not holding a weapon.
Whhhuuuuuutttth!!
Jaka Umbaran immediately berkel agile invite hard blow Ki Lengkara. But the hitman's quick attack has just begun. As fast as lightning he lowered his body and floated a quick circular kick sweeping over Jaka Umbaran's leg. The Swordsman of Mount Lawu was immediately tracing the ground hard then bouncy high and down with feet on top. As fast as lightning he sent a quick punch bertubi towards Ki Lengkara from above.
Plllaaaakkkkk plllaaaakkkk..
Bllaaaaaarr..!!!
The two men continued to explore martial skills and power in the opponent with one or two punches and a hard kick. This empty-handed martial arts affair lasted quite a long time.
Loud explosions were heard as the two men clashed against the palms. The fight between them had indeed started to use the inner strength they had. The two people each took a few steps back.
Feeling above the wind, Ki Lengkara grinned broadly staring towards Jaka Umbaran. He felt that he had managed to explore the martial skills possessed by this young man even though Jaka Umbaran had not deployed a third of his energy in his.
"Prince Jayabaya, don't blame me if I kill you. But blame some greedy people for the power in Kotaraja Daha Palace.
Die you young prince!", said Ki Lengkara whose right hand was drawn by a blackish purple light. Apparently he was preparing to finish the life of Jaka Umbaran with Ajian Kencana Wungu which is one of the famous high-level canuragan science in the martial world of Jawadwipa Land in the east. The eerie cold and able to make the feathers stand up immediately revolved quickly around Ki Lengkara's right hand. The number one assassin in the Jenggala Kingdom's territory darted rapidly towards the young swordsman.
Jaka Umbaran who was curious about what had just been said by Ki Lengkara immediately cast the spell Ajian Halimun. A thin white mist instantly covered Jaka Umbaran's entire body. Ki Lengkara grinned widely while smashing his fist.
Whhhuuummm...
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
The eyes of Ki Lengkara bought wide when he only hit the empty wind until his Ajian Kencana Wungu beat a banana tree that grew behind where Jaka Umbaran stood. Instantly, the banana tree grove exploded and shattered. However, Ki Lengkara was even more shocked when a hand gripped his nape firmly and plunged his face into the ground. His shaky balance of body was unable to withstand this blow until the old man's face hit the ground hard.
Bhhuuuuggh...
Mmmppppppppphhh!!
Jaka Umbaran continued to press Ki Lengkara's head to the ground. The leader of the group of the Five Life-Destroying Devils struggled to escape but he lost energy from Jaka Umbaran. The old man was almost out of breath.
At that crucial moment, Gudel who had just pitted his energies with Gendol, saw the danger that threatened the life of the leader of this group. Without a second thought, he immediately threw his sharp jagged black iron mace towards Jaka Umbaran.
Whhhuuuugggghhhh!!
Gudel's mace throw made Jaka Umbaran a little surprised until he released his pressure on Ki Lengkara's head. The old man immediately moved away from Jaka Umbaran while bored his breathing. But Gudel's careless actions were used by Gendol to finish off the life of this fat man.
As fast as lightning, Gendol thumped the head of Gudel who had just thrown his sharp jagged black iron mace to save Ki Lengkara's life.
Bhhuuuuugggh..
Aaaarrrgggghhhhh!!!
Gudel roared loudly as Gendol's mace hit his right temple. He immediately collapsed with his head spilling fresh blood.
"GUUDDEEEEEEELLLL TIDAAAAAKKKKKK!!", cried Ki Lengkara when he saw Gudel died at the hands of Gendol. After all, the innocent and innocent Gudel had to be killed just because of his greed for treasures. During this time, Gudel only followed along even though he often killed innocent people.
Seeing the death of Gudel who was his closest person, Ki Lengkara immediately grabbed the handle of the spear stuck on the ground and immediately shot towards Gendol while thrusting this weapon. He wants revenge for Gudel's death.
Less than a fathom in front of Gendol, suddenly Jaka Umbaran appeared who immediately grabbed the back of Ki Lengkara's shirt and slammed the old man to the ground as hard as possible.
Bhhuuuuummmmmmmmm...
Oouugghhhhhh!!!
Ki Lengkara until a small cough due to the harshness of the slings of Jaka Umbaran. The old man tried to retreat when he saw Jaka Umbaran walking up to him. His old face filled with earth and grass seemed frightened as if he saw an angel of death walking near him. Especially when Jaka Umbaran with a deep and heavy voice said,
"Where are you going, hit man?!"
