Chapter 644
Uvogin stood among the three Shadow Beasts. He ignored the blood-covered Shadow Beasts and stared straight at Su Xiao.
Crack, crack...
Uvogin's teeth were clenched, looking like he wanted to swallow Su Xiao alive. Su Xiao killed Nobunaga; it is only natural for Uvogin to have this reaction.
Su Xiao walked slowly, Checking Zhan Long Shan unsheathed, and he put away the Spirit's Afterglow. He was prepared to fight Uvogin in close quarters.
Shalnark and the other two, hiding behind the valley, poked their heads out. After judging the situation on the field, the three rushed toward the battlefield.
"You three, go hold them back. Five minutes is enough."
Su Xiao glanced at the three Shadow Beasts nearby. The Shadow Beast Earthworm sneered, seemingly prepared to run away.
"If you dare to flee, you had better hope I die here. Otherwise, I will chop you into meat paste to feed the dogs afterward."
Su Xiao looked at the Shadow Beast Earthworm with a calm gaze. The Shadow Beast Earthworm felt a chill in his heart. Being chopped into meat paste to feed the dogs was definitely not a metaphor or a threat. He clearly felt that if he dared to flee, that situation would really happen.
Compared to Earthworm and Porcupine, Rabid Dog was much more obedient. Ever since Su Xiao appeared, he had been in a state of panic. After all, Su Xiao had once used the Boundary Line to strangle his throat, letting him slowly suffocate, and then slowly cut his throat open during the negotiations with the Ten Dons.
Porcupine and Earthworm hesitated for a moment, finally choosing to walk toward Shalnark and the others. Two of the three people with Shalnark were support combat personnel, which was also dangerous, but not as terrifying as Uvogin.
Uvogin ignored the retreating Shadow Beasts, but stepped on the ground beneath his feet and rushed toward Su Xiao like a cannonball out of the chamber.
Su Xiao leaned low, his right hand gripping the hilt of Checking Zhan Long Shan, the long sword pointing obliquely at the ground.
Just as Uvogin rushed in front of Su Xiao, he suddenly stopped and leaped backward.
Although Uvogin was angry, he hadn't lost his reason. Just after he approached Su Xiao within five meters, his perception began to warn him. The further he rushed forward, the more dangerous it became. Rushing straight over would definitely lead to death.
Uvogin's perception was correct. If he rushed forward, Su Xiao would use Ring Break to welcome him. Against a Nen user like Uvogin who relies on his body to fight, Su Xiao is his natural nemesis.
With equal strength, the side using weapons has the advantage, whether in attack power or attack range. With Su Xiao's Lv. 23 Sword Master, if Uvogin dared to rush forward rashly, Su Xiao could slash him into a pile of minced meat in minutes.
Detecting Uvogin's beast-like intuition, Su Xiao suddenly disappeared from where he was.
"So fast!"
Uvogin's eyes widened, and he instantly concentrated all his Nen energy on his right arm. At this moment, the hardness of his right arm surpassed most metals.
Sword light flashed in the dark night, and Uvogin raised his arm to block.
Ding!
The sound of metal clashing came. Uvogin used his body to resist the blade of Checking Zhan Long Shan. Although he defended against Su Xiao's slash head-on, the defense of Uvogin's other body parts was very weak. Even ordinary bullets could break through this body without the blessing of Nen ability.
"So that's how it is."
Uvogin grinned and laughed, his smile appearing cruel. He spread the Nen energy in his right arm to his left arm, and the defense of both arms increased explosively. He was going to take a risk.
"Ha!"
Uvogin's arm pressed down, and a terrifying giant force came from Checking Zhan Long Shan. Su Xiao retracted his sword and turned sideways. If it came to comparing strength, he was definitely not Uvogin's opponent.
Boom!
The fist smashed into the ground, gravel flying. The stones hitting Su Xiao's face felt faintly painful.
Dust surged, and Uvogin's fists hammered wildly at Su Xiao's position, like a heavy pile driver, the valley shaking.
Bang!
The touch on his fist made Uvogin feel somewhat surprised. His fist had smashed into something extremely hard. In this moment of daze, a bright sword tip broke through the dust.
Puchi, blood splattered, and the long sword pierced through Uvogin's chest.
"Shadow Pierce."
Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy wrapped around the sword light, forming an energy spike on the tip of Checking Zhan Long Shan.
The moment the energy spike formed, Uvogin retreated at full speed. Shadow Pierce formed, and because Uvogin was retreating, Checking Zhan Long Shan detached from the opponent's body.
With a swish.
Over a dozen energy spikes appeared. Cold sweat slid down Uvogin's cheeks. If he hadn't reacted fast enough, he would have become a hedgehog.
Uvogin moved his somewhat numb arm. The poison from the Shadow Beast Hedgehog had already been decomposed and metabolized by Uvogin's monster-like body.
The dust dispersed, and Su Xiao appeared with dozens of hexagonal energy shields floating around him. It was the Counter Shield that blocked Uvogin's fist, allowing Su Xiao to pierce through Uvogin's chest with one sword strike.
Blood surged from the corner of Uvogin's mouth. The excruciating pain caused by the invasion of Blue Qing Qing Gang Ying energy made the veins on his face bulge. It was very clear that in a one-on-one fight, Uvogin was not Su Xiao's opponent. The Shadow Beasts could still hold Shalnark and the others for a while, but the rout of the three Shadow Beasts was only a matter of time.
"Uvogin, catch."
Shalnark's shout came. At this moment, Earthworm was entangled with Shalnark, but this guy was typically doing the bare minimum, retreating as soon as there was danger, failing to hold Shalnark back.
Shalnark threw a small antenna, and Uvogin caught it, his expression not very good.
"Use that, Uvogin, don't hesitate. Nobunaga's revenge..."
"Got it, nagging."
Uvogin, holding the small antenna, seemed very unhappy, but forced by the situation, he had no other way.
There are several combinations in the Troupe. Uvogin and Nobunaga have the best tacit understanding, but they are not the strongest combination. The strongest combination is Uvogin + Shalnark.
Uvogin's mouth opened, and he inserted the small antenna into his oral cavity.
"Ready."
Uvogin's voice was a bit slurred, and his expression was very unhappy.
"Then I'm starting."
Shalnark, who was fighting Earthworm, took out a mobile phone. He is a Manipulator, and this is the tool he uses to manipulate. As long as they are inserted by Shalnark's antenna, no matter how strong the enemy is, he can manipulate them.
"Automatic Operation, activate."
A female voice came from Shalnark's phone. At the same time, Uvogin stood still. Golden Nen energy appeared on his body surface, surging toward the surroundings. This golden Nen energy was extremely dense, so dense that one couldn't see Uvogin himself inside.
"Enemy confirmed..."
The phone spoke again, and Shalnark immediately pressed the phone. His Nen energy suddenly disappeared a lot.
"Enemy selected, selection complete. Four enemies, prioritizing one, start executing disposal."
The golden Nen energy on Uvogin's body surface contracted, his hair stood on end, and his muscles were extremely exaggerated. His gaze became dazed, but his strength doubled. Su Xiao even had the feeling of his hair standing on end.
Uvogin glared at the ground beneath his feet, and with a boom, he disappeared from where he was after leaving a large pit.
When Uvogin appeared again, he was already at the side of the Shadow Beast Earthworm.
"How is this possible!"
Earthworm's expression was terrified. His first reaction upon seeing Uvogin was to flee.
Uvogin threw a straight punch, and this punch was already fast enough to leave an afterimage.
Bang!
Earthworm disappeared instantly. It wasn't that Earthworm fled, but that he was shattered by Uvogin's fist. This was a true one-hit kill into slag.
Shalnark nearby stood in place, holding the remote control. Although Uvogin is very strong in the automatic operation state, this coordination has great limitations.
First, Shalnark needs to consume almost all his Nen, and after opening automatic operation, he himself cannot move, which is extremely risky.
Secondly, after Uvogin enters the automatic operation state, his body's limitations are completely opened. Strength, speed, and Nen ability are all 100% fully exerted. There is no need for brain reaction when attacking, fighting entirely by instinct. Moreover, automatic operation can only last for 9 minutes, after which Uvogin will be bedridden for a week. This is still because Uvogin's body is strong; if it were other Troupe members, they would die directly. Shalnark, on the other hand, cannot use Nen ability for a month.
The limitations are great, but the effect is extremely strong. The Nen consumed by Shalnark doesn't disappear into thin air, but is added to Uvogin, forming a protective layer similar to "Hard," which is the golden Nen energy around Uvogin's body.
And Uvogin's own strength, speed, and defense increase exponentially.
Su Xiao looked at Uvogin, who had transformed into a "Super Saiyan." His expression was not very good. This move didn't appear in the original work; it might be because Uvogin died relatively early.
With Uvogin's temper, he wouldn't usually let Shalnark use this move unless it was a critical moment. Today, Nobunaga's death angered Uvogin, and Su Xiao's restraint on him left Uvogin with no choice.
After killing the Shadow Beast Earthworm in seconds, Uvogin turned his head and looked at Su Xiao with a dazed gaze.
Uvogin disappeared from where he was, and also disappeared from Su Xiao's line of sight. His dynamic vision couldn't capture Uvogin. When Uvogin appeared again, he was already in front of him.
It was still the previous posture, arm bent, straight punch thrown.
Thud!
Uvogin's fist, wrapped in golden Nen energy, hit the Counter Shield, and a circular air wave spread out, the stone slabs on the ground around being lifted.
With a whoosh, Su Xiao was sent flying by Uvogin's punch. In mid-air, he spat out blood. Although this punch was defended by the Counter Shield, the powerful impact was enough to injure him.
Boom, Su Xiao, wrapped in the Counter Shield, crashed into the mountain, and a bottomless hole appeared on the mountain.
