Fury is the two hundred forty-eighth chapter of the Rurouni Kenshin manga.
Synopsis[]
Kenshin quickly sheathes the Sakabatou as Enishi screams down at him from the sky. Enishi is able to deliver a cut straight across Kenshin's arm, but he suddenly stops in place when he lands on the ground. Aoshi and Misao's ears hurt a bit, due to their enhanced hearing, which could only mean one thing. The Ryu Mei Sen is a reverse godspeed Battou Jutsu where he quickly sheathes the sword generating a supersonic sound to paralyze the opponent.
Enishi crushing his eardrum.
But for Enishi's case where his left ear is spewing blood. The effect of the Ryu Mei Sen was much greater on him due to his usage of nerves. Kenshin commends Enishi for having a great offense, but the downfall of his strategy is his low defense. To everyone's surprise, Enishi busts his own eardrum by jamming his finger into his ear. Nothing will stop him from killing Kenshin, not even a sharp pain in his ear as Enishi's spirit has already surpassed flesh. Enishi charges at Kenshin and slams his sword down at the ground. Luckily, all Kenshin had to do was sidestep to evade. The power generated from Enishi's blow was so great that it made a path in the sand all the way to the sea.
Enishi explaining why he has no defense.
Kenshin tries to convince Enishi again that to stand down as his offensive attempts are futile in his state. But Enishi retorts that offense is the only thing he can count on with no defense because the one he wanted to defend was already taken by him. Without hesitation, Enishi turns his tachi upside down and sinks into the stance for the Ko Fuku Zet Tou Sei. Kenshin understands that he cannot return anything back to Enishi, but promises to meet his anger as he gets into the Battou Jutsu stance, preparing the Ama Kakeru Ryuu no Hirameki.
