Written by Takahashi Miyuki
Art and cover by Takahashi
CMX.
MUSASHI NUMBER NINE chronicles the fast-paced adventures of a 16-year-old
super-agent who takes on assassins, terrorists and counter agents!
Written and illustrated by acclaimed artist Takahashi Miyuki, MUSASHI
NUMBER NINE is an action series famous in Japan for a hero who is
the ultimate in cool, featuring crisp, stylishly rendered artwork
and engaging storytelling.
Exotic, smart
and lethal, Number Nine is a field operative for an organization
committed to fighting injustice. Little is known about "Universal
Blue" except that they’re the last line of defense against
battalions of terrorists and criminals. Even less is known about
its field operatives — though it’s whispered that they possess the
ability to change the course of world history. And Number Nine is
one of them.
In this volume,
a teenaged girl is marked for death for reasons beyond her control,
and Universal Blue decides to take care of her. But Number Nine
runs into trouble with this headstrong client. After all, who would
accept a stranger’s help with the unraveling chaos of her life?
The teenaged girl has a special gift — one that will save the life
of an important person. But will she live long enough to deliver
that gift in time?
