Chapter 423 The Fall of Shiganshina District

"The strongest?"

Allen looked at Jiraiya, and a strange aura emanated from the otherworldly uncle he had briefly met, making him feel dazed.

Even though his power has been sealed, Jiraiya is still a battle-hardened warrior.

And Allen,

Although they were favored by fate, like most civilians and military police, they were protected by thick high walls and were like domesticated livestock.

Eren's pupils trembled, as if he saw... no, a feeling that far surpassed that of the ordinary Survey Corps.

"Alan, wanting to save the world, wanting to change fate, is both difficult and easy!"

dusk is approaching,

The warm, gentle sunlight spilled onto the city walls and the Shiganshina district, where many ordinary people lived.

A dark figure appeared on the city wall, blocking the sunlight and casting a large shadow.

Jiraiya raised his head.

Looking at the enormous head that suddenly appeared out of nowhere and leaped over the city wall.

Without skin, the hideous scarlet muscle stripes were exposed, and high-temperature white steam billowed up onto the city walls, covering large sections of the passageway.

Before they could react, the garrison soldiers were scalded to death by the white steam.

This scene,

All civilians in the Shiganshina district can see it.

Terror, fear, frantic escape, piercing screams, struggling in the crowded streets...

It's like some kind of forgotten fear.

"Colossal Titan!"

Eren swallowed hard, standing frozen in place. Even though he was prepared, fear still quickly crept into his heart when he saw the special Titan that had destroyed the wall again.

Suddenly, Jiraiya's heroic voice rang in my ears.

"That is willpower!"

"The will to face fear, to see fear, to fight fear, and ultimately to transcend fear!"

Jiraiya could see in Eren the same indomitable spirit he had when he was younger.

Those chosen to become players in the cycle of reincarnation are also beings with unwavering will, only temporarily concealed.

The Colossal Titan turned its head in confusion.

Looking at Jiraiya, who hadn't been killed by the white steam, he seemed puzzled as to why the ant-like humans hadn't taken the opportunity to escape.

Whoosh.

Jiraiya flicked his finger, and the steel claw shot out, firmly anchoring itself to the city wall, before the rope tightened.

Using the pull, he rushed toward the colossal giant at an extremely high speed.

After exchanging for the 3D Maneuver Gear, a memory that seems to have been honed through countless trials appears in my mind, and even my body can perfectly adapt to it.

Just as he said,

Now, he is the strongest warrior in the three major military groups.

"Roar!"

The Colossal Titan let out a low growl. Despite its enormous size, it was not at all as clumsy as one might imagine. Its arms moved nimbly as it tried to grab Jiraiya, who was moving through the air.

However, he underestimated Jiraiya's agility, who dodged the waving blood-red arm in a few quick movements and stood on the shoulder of the colossal giant.

"Who is that?"

"3D Maneuver Gear... Are they soldiers from the Military Police?"

They fled frantically, but were blocked by the moat. The civilians, who could only wait for the returning boats to enter the city, turned around and saw a small figure standing on the shoulder of the colossal giant.

Inside the post station, the Survey Corps soldiers who had just returned to the city also stared blankly at Jiraiya flying in the air.

"I've never seen him before. He's not from the Survey Corps. Could he be from the Military Police or the Garrison Corps? How could that be!"

"Even Captain Levi... no, Captain Levi is the strongest!"

As soldiers who frequently ventured outside the city walls to conduct investigations, they were the unit that had the most frequent contact with Titans.

They retain a remnant of wildness from not being domesticated.

The 3D Maneuver Gear is like an extension of their limbs; those unfamiliar with its operation have long become food for the Titans.

However, seeing Jiraiya's control of the 3D Maneuver Gear was still awe-inspiring.

It's like the difference between a butcher and a peerless swordsman.

They had witnessed this terrifying strength in Levi, who was known as the strongest captain, so they simply couldn't believe that such a fierce warrior could be found among the military police and garrison troops who were like good-for-nothings.

"laugh……"

The Colossal Titan's mouth was split open, as if it were smiling, unlike the mindless Titans that were wandering around.

Just waiting for Jiraiya to land on my shoulder,

puff.

A large amount of hot white steam suddenly spewed out from between the muscles, like a thick fog, enveloping the entire body.

The hurricane-like impact, followed by the high-temperature steam, blew Jiraiya away before he could even stand properly. His skin began to fester and corrode from the intense heat.

"Good timing!"

Ignoring the pain of being corroded, Jiraiya pulled at the grappling hook embedded in the Colossal Titan's shoulder, his body tracing a circle in the air.

Click...

The high-temperature steam caused the 3D Maneuver Gear to jam, rendering it unusable.

Jiraiya, who was about to reach the back of the Colossal Titan's neck, fell like a kite with a broken string.

[Exchange for [3D Maneuver Gear]!]

Jiraiya, who was falling, communicated with the shop, and the next second he abandoned the damaged 3D Maneuver Gear and wore the latest version redeemed from the shop.

"How many more times can the giant spew steam?"

With his keen observation skills, Jiraiya noticed that as steam was emitted, the Colossal Titan's muscles atrophied like water.

That would probably be a very costly approach.

At this time, Jiraiya's skin was completely ulcerated, and his cheeks, like those of the Colossal Titan, were nothing but scarlet muscles, making him look like a vengeful ghost.

grappling hook launch,

The rope tightened around Jiraiya's body and landed on the back of the Colossal Titan's neck once more.

Bertholdt Hoover, a warrior from the Marleyan Empire, transformed into the Colossal Titan, sensed the threat of death at that moment.

Even though they had received professional training, they had never encountered a crazy human like Jiraiya who was willing to risk his life.

"Go to hell!"

Jiraiya swung his blade, about to slice open the flesh of the Colossal Titan's nape.

Suddenly, a giant covered in armor charged at them like a cannonball, sending Jiraiya flying and saving the Colossal Titan.

"Two special giants... they seem to possess intelligence, unlike those mindless giants that wander around."

Jiraiya landed on the wall passageway, his expression serious, and said, "Eren, the Titans outside the walls may possess intelligence. This is not an accident, but an organized and premeditated plan of sabotage."

The performance of the two giants just now,

Unlike most mindless Unsullied Titans, they help each other and show clear emotions during battle.

However, Jiraiya had no interest in digging deeper into the information; his goal was to defend against the giants' attack and protect Wall Maria.

in other words,

His goal was to prevent the city wall from falling; if it did, he would kill all the giants that invaded it.

The garrison soldiers stared in disbelief as Jiraiya landed on the city wall.

When fighting the Colossal Titan, the perfect disguise of the uniform had already failed, and the garrison troops realized that they had never seen this officer before.

Rumble.

The rescued colossal giant, in a kicking stance, slammed its massive, skinless torso against the city wall.

The city wall was kicked down, and the resulting dust storms and rain of rubble smashed countless houses in the Shiganshina district.

The strong wind blew away the garrison soldiers on the edge of the city wall.

A huge gap appeared in the city wall, and even the sunlight shining down felt a chilling coldness.

Through the gap in the city wall,

You can see countless giants constantly moving into the city.

With a strange smile on its face and a grotesque running posture, yet possessing a human-like appearance, this eerie atmosphere maximizes the uncanny valley effect.

Countless civilians trembled and gathered along the moat.

They had been watching with bated breath as wealthy people boarded the ship, but now a riot had broken out.

"Get out of the way and let us board!"

"If you won't let me into the city, then we'll all die together!"

Even with military police maintaining order, riots still broke out at several city gates.

The result was that the ship was sunk, and no one could escape.
