The way he said those well-intentioned words, his tone and expression, inexplicably made you want to punch him.
His gaze swept over the scum in front of him.
Normally, Yato might have had the leisure to play along with them, but now he couldn't even be bothered to say a word.
Just keep walking forward.
They acted as if they didn't see these people at all.
"Hey!" Narushima Hikaru suddenly panicked.
He wanted to rush up and stop the group of thugs.
His right foot had just stepped out—
A storm is coming.
Poof!
Poof!
……
Those thugs were like rag dolls, either falling to the ground, crashing into the wall, or flying up and then crashing back to the ground. In just two or three seconds, only Yato and Narushima Hikari were left standing.
"...?!"
Hikaru Narushima stared wide-eyed.
I watched this scene in disbelief.
In the end what happened?
No, it's not that we didn't see anything at all.
From his perspective, the thugs seemed to be trying to stop the other party, but they were attacked unexpectedly as soon as they got close.
too fast.
It happened so fast that they didn't even have time to feel fear.
"Are you going to block my way too?"
Yato silently watched Narushima Koga.
"!"
Narushima Koga jolted and immediately pressed himself against the wall, as if dodging a speeding train. His movements were quite exaggerated, but judging from his trembling hands and feet, it was just a matter of instinct.
Yato withdrew his gaze and left.
He never took his hands out of the box.
No, perhaps it was a punch.
However, normal human dynamic vision cannot capture the straight-line trajectory unique to Jeet Kune Do.
"Just who is this guy?"
Looking at his trembling hands and then at the thugs lying on the ground groaning incessantly, Hikaru Narushima swallowed hard. When he looked again in the direction Yato had left, his gaze was slowly replaced by an indescribable fervor.
……
In a city as vast as it is, there are always places where the light cannot reach.
One of them is the abandoned building along the Night Battle route.
The previous scuffle—no… it couldn’t even be called a scuffle, it was just casually brushing off some dust he’d accidentally gotten on himself—wasn’t enough to stir any emotion in him.
He is still constantly thinking about and improving his response measures.
pat.
Footsteps sounded.
It was someone else's footsteps.
Yato glanced at it, but didn't pay much attention.
Although this is an abandoned building, it's not completely deserted.
A group of thugs sitting in the shade, smoking and chatting.
A homeless man sleeping on the spot.
There are also ordinary citizens like him who take shortcuts for convenience.
However, the citizen that Yato saw was a bit 'petite'.
It's a girl.
Wearing a T-shirt and hot pants, she was dressed very lightly.
She has short hair.
At first glance, he looks like a tomboy.
Even so, it was a rare treat for those thugs.
Yato had already noticed that someone was approaching the other party without making a sound.
He ignored it.
Ultimately, his heart cannot be described as 'kind' at all.
Soon, the two passed each other.
But at that very moment—!
The tomboyish girl pulled out a pistol from somewhere and pulled the trigger at the back of Yato's neck.
Actions that appear as casual as drinking water or eating are actually incredibly swift.
Because her movements were too refined!
It was as if they had rehearsed the scene tens of thousands of times, leaving no room for correction.
boom!
Gunfire erupted in the darkness.
Chapter 27
Zhi——!
The short, sharp sounds of the shoe soles rubbing intensely against the ground rang out almost simultaneously.
The assassin felt a strong impact on his wrist.
This caused the gun muzzle to deflect, forcing it to fire off course.
Not only that, he couldn't even hold the gun, and it slipped from his hand.
The assassin had no doubt that if it weren't for his naturally stronger physique, an ordinary woman, even after rigorous special agent training, would have suffered a comminuted fracture of her wrist from that single blow.
Although her condition was slightly better, she only suffered some joint damage, but it was still nothing to be thankful for.
Because the target's second attack has arrived!
A blurry shadow rose from below.
Swift as a snake.
It gives people absolutely no time to react.
The saying that "old forces have gone and new forces have not yet emerged" does not seem to apply to the other party.
The assassin barely managed to tilt her head back and narrowly avoid the kick, but she felt a burning sensation on her upper body and her chin felt like it was about to split open.
No! It's not a feeling.
It's cracked.
A stinging and warm sensation came from my chin, extending all the way to my shoulder blade, feeling no different from being slashed with a knife.
But why? They weren't actually kicked; it was just the aftershock of a punch or kick, yet it still caused such considerable damage.
The assassin felt a sense of absurdity, but also a strong sense of crisis.
Death is approaching.
This description is not an exaggeration at all.
The opponent's kicking technique is like the Grim Reaper's scythe!
First, he used a spinning back kick to knock away his own weapon, then without any pause, he twisted his waist and delivered a second high side kick.
With just two counterattacks, she found herself in a rather passive situation.
"What a terrifying guy!"
The girl's black eyes with white pupils flashed with shock.
Immediately afterwards, I calmed down.
He gritted his teeth and activated a bloodline secret technique passed down through generations of his clan.
"【liberation】!"
The skin instantly swelled and turned red, and blood rushed through the blood vessels.
Her beautiful face was now contorted with rage.
The exposed skin all over the body also showed a rather horrifying abnormality.
Like a demon!
In this state, she can temporarily break free from human limitations and activate potential that is normally unusable.
It's even more exaggerated than simply breaking the limits of the human body.
Breaking the limits only makes the bucket bigger. Although it does make you stronger and allows you to use more power, the parts that cannot be used are still unusable.
Therefore, human limits and human limitations are two completely different concepts.
Despite using such exaggerated techniques, the girl didn't feel it was a waste at all.
Her experience and intuition predicted a very likely outcome—if she could not escape her current passive situation, she might die here in the next attack or the one after that!
As if to confirm her judgment.
Yato kicked out a third time.
This is a 'Cutter - Third Stage' that even Tianyu has never seen before!
The cutter's move is a three-stage kicking combination.
A right back spinning kick, followed by a high side kick, and finally a high back kick with the left foot to finish.
These seemingly ordinary tricks are something even an ordinary person could do.
But in his hands, it was full of wonder.
This is due to the effect of incorporating the "Storm Foot" technique.
Strictly speaking, this has deviated from the category of normal moves and belongs to the category of secret techniques.
Each kick was as fierce as a storm and as swift as lightning!
Combined with the stealth enhancement effect that comes with his title of 'Kicking Demon', opponents usually can't even see him clearly and are down before they can react.
However, the assassin before him was more special than any opponent Yato had ever encountered before.
After activating [Liberation], the girl's physical abilities were greatly enhanced.
She suddenly crouched down, dodging Yato's third fatal seppuku kick. She reached behind her waist and pulled out a military-style combat dagger. Using the agility of a woman, she moved as close to Yato as a cat, intending to put the knife to his neck before he could retract his leg and decide the outcome!
Yato was somewhat surprised by the girl's sudden outburst, but he wasn't about to let his opponent exploit his weaknesses.
He knew the strengths and weaknesses of kicking techniques better than anyone else.
Therefore, I had already devised countless solutions in my mind.
The blade is entirely black and does not reflect light at all, making it obvious that it is made of a special material.
