A Female Killer Born To Revenge | A Tragedy of Samurai | Japanese Violence Film Recapped

Apr 18, 2022 (JIANG ZI MOVIE) - Snowflakes danced in hazy mist. A woman in a kimono, holding a purple umbrella, walked slowly from a distance. With a cold expression and sharp eyes, she stopped the car of the gang on the street.

When the guard saw this, he took his knife and scolded the woman. The woman didn't say much nonsense, flew into the air, and pulled out the long knife from the umbrella handle. The long knife twisted, and the icy blade approached, immediately breaking the guard's arm. When the remaining guards rushed up to fight, the woman raised the oil-paper umbrella to block the attack and used the sharp blade drawn from its handle to take other people's lives. Snowflakes were caught in the cold wind, and blood splattered everywhere, with screams lingered in ears.
