The brave Simmel wants to resign

"you....."

"What did you do to my partner?"

The mist kicked up by the flying sand made it difficult for Lu Ziyun to see the other person's face; she could only make out their thin figure...

But his companions couldn't be wrong.

Those dark circles under her eyes...

Without a doubt!

"You're so slow!" The panda, who had been so dignified just moments before, immediately frowned and cried out in aggrieved voice, "You're too slow!! You'd better remember to compensate me with ten packs of small meat jerky afterwards!"

"acquaintance?"

Lu Ziyun immediately turned her fighting spirit towards the person in front of her.

As he approached, Lu Ziyun was able to see him clearly.

A face with a slightly different, fragmented design and no distinctive features.

If I had to pinpoint it, it would be those cold, sinister eyes that were devoid of any warmth.

Of course, Lu Ziyun didn't care at all what she looked like.

The key point is...

(Unfathomable magical power! And... you can tell just by the posture.)

【clatter】

【clatter】

In Lu Ziyun's eyes, Yi Gu You Tai was completely covered by thick, chaotic black lines, with shadows churning and his alien-like monstrous body twisting and stretching, the oppressive feeling seemingly solidified.

(This guy is terrifyingly strong!)

"ha!----"

A savage grin, pure ecstasy!

"Hey Hey hey!"

"Don't make me get too excited, okay?!"

Chapter 163 [Lu Ziyun 1 vs. Yi Gu You Tai (Part 2)]

In the center of the battlefield.

A boy named Yuta Otsuku jumped off a shipping container.

The first thing he did was—

"Oh, a panda."

As if his sinister expression was merely a facade, the boy spoke to his companions with unusual gentleness.

"I'm so sorry I'm late."

His eyebrows were furrowed, and his expression was full of self-reproach.

Of course, the panda wouldn't blame its companion; more important than that, right now is—

"I'm okay! I'm Cursed Mukuro! But Yuuta! Maki and Inu-maki—"

"Yes, it's okay."

【——————】

Lu Ziyun, whose patience was almost worn out from listening to the two talking, suddenly changed her expression.

Because the voice suddenly appeared beside him.

It was sandwiched between itself and the panda's head on the ground.

"!!!"

He bowed slightly and leaned forward, as if he had arrived here in just one step.

"you!!"

His eyes suddenly darted to the side, and he swung the long stick in his hand to sweep it to one side!

An electric arc flashed, followed by a burst of white light; the attack was so fast that it was impossible for the naked eye to detect it.

but....

Lu Ziyun, however, had no feel for hitting the target.

Not only that, as his body naturally tilted with the swing of the bat, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chin, followed by a dizzying spin, and he felt as if he were about to fall off the ground...

Getting further and further away?

Boom! —! —

Lu Ziyun's body crashed heavily into the container, and the thick steel plate instantly dented inward.

Click click click click click!

In an instant, the creases became dense, and the metal snapped and creaked!

The container slid violently in the direction of the force, then crashed heavily into the container behind it, causing the entire container to overturn and roll several times.

Boom! Boom!

The heavy object, weighing tens of tons, was tumbling around like a plush toy.

The scene was so shocking that even the panda shrank its neck... Oh, it doesn't have a neck anymore.

But the next moment——

In a flash, he found himself several hundred meters away from where he had been just moments before.

"Hey?"

"Don't move, panda."

The voice was soft.

The panda found itself lying on the dog's belly.

A tremendous amount of positive energy enveloped the three of them, instantly healing their wounds.

[Reversal Technique]

"I'm sorry, really, I'm so sorry... I'm late."

Yi Gu's expression was obscured by shadows, but his voice was very soft.

"I will take responsibility for the enemy."

The panda's body trembled.

Actually, he wasn't that scared. Perhaps it was an animal instinct. The panda always felt that their reliable companion would arrive at the crucial moment.

So he deliberately used his usual憨厚 (honest and simple) tone to joke, "Youtai... don't kill him, we still need his points."

"......"

Yi Gu did not answer immediately.

boom! !

As the two were talking... a huge, muffled thud came from within the wrecked steel ruins.

...............

......

(what happens?)

Deeply trapped in the pit, crushed by several containers, Lu Ziyun, sprawled out on her back, finally had time to think about everything that had just happened.

His excellent reflexes allowed him to understand everything that had just happened.

(That brat appeared beside me in an instant, then dodged my weapon the moment I swung it, and then punched me away?)

Lu Ziyun couldn't express how she felt at that moment.

but....

(Just... one punch?)

"Hahaha!!"

boom! ! !

An airburst rang out, and the shockwave, forming a semi-circle, was pushed away heavily. Lu Ziyun kicked away the heavy objects pressing down on her one by one.

Get up, and use the ruins beneath your feet as a fulcrum—jump!

boom!

Catching up with the container she had kicked away, Lu Ziyun's face was covered in blood, but she still looked at her enemy with the greatest enthusiasm.

"Hey! Isn't this incredibly powerful?!"

He immediately saw the enormous positive energy output.

"Reversal spell! Or external output?!"

Lu Ziyun's smile became even more genuine.

"You!—Are you the strongest of this era?!"

He touched the surface of the container beneath his feet with his knees and reached down with one hand.

He peeled off the sheet metal, quickly dismantled it, and then swung the stick in his hand, supporting the stick with his palm and rotating his wrist rapidly.

The long staff suddenly spun rapidly, transforming into a continuous ring of light and shadow, knocking all the iron pieces away!

Enveloped in a bit of magical power, the iron pieces hurtled towards the location of Yi Gu like a meteor shower.

“…”

The panda noticed that Yi Gu frowned slightly.
