Chapter 95
Boom.
The Aogiri Tree stronghold tilted again, with the possibility of collapsing at any time.
The load-bearing walls on the bottom floor were blown apart, causing the entire building to gradually tilt like a withered tree.
On the rooftop.
Ken Kaneki's kagune was released; Su Xiao was somewhat familiar with those four kagune, no different from Rize Kamishiro's kagune.
Su Xiao took a deep breath, his footsteps rushing forward, one hand always pressed on his lower abdomen.
Ken Kaneki also rushed toward Su Xiao, his kagune behind him baring fangs and brandishing claws, stabbing toward Su Xiao from four directions.
Blade light flashed.
Su Xiao swung his blade to sever two kagune and turned sideways to pass through the gap between the two kagune, arriving in front of Ken Kaneki.
Ken Kaneki actually subconsciously blocked with both hands in front of him, intending to use his flesh to resist the sharp blade.
Even if his strength had improved, Ken Kaneki's close-combat ability was still somewhat trashy. Wanting to become a qualified warrior wasn't something that could be achieved just by changing hair color.
At least compared to Su Xiao, Ken Kaneki's close-combat ability was very trashy.
The long blade swept past; Ken Kaneki only felt a white line appear before his eyes, and then a sense of numbness came from his arms.
The two forearms Ken Kaneki blocked with in front of him were directly severed, the cut smooth.
Although his arms were severed, Ken Kaneki only frowned; compared to the torture he had endured, this pain was within the range he could accept.
After severing Ken Kaneki's arms, Su Xiao's attack didn't pause for even a second, delivering a kick to Kaneki's lower abdomen.
Ken Kaneki flew backward uncontrollably, spitting out a mouthful of acid. While Ken Kaneki was flying in mid-air, Su Xiao left several deep blade marks on his body.
After only a few rounds of fighting, Kaneki's two forearms were severed, and there were crisscrossing deep wounds on his body that reached the bone.
"Bang."
Ken Kaneki landed, rolling on the ground in a sorry state.
Su Xiao stopped in place, adjusting his breathing frequency; a pool of blood had already appeared beneath his feet.
It wasn't just the wound on his lower abdomen; the wound on his shoulder had also expanded somewhat.
Must finish the battle quickly.
Enduring the pain from his wounds, Su Xiao rushed to Ken Kaneki in a few steps.
Ken Kaneki was currently lying on the ground, his severed arms gradually growing back, and the wounds on his body had already healed.
Su Xiao wouldn't wait for the enemy to recover before acting, directly raising the Checking Zhan Long Shan in his hand.
"Don't even think about it."
A kagune attacked; the strength of the kagune's owner wasn't strong, and this strike appeared somewhat stiff, so Su Xiao immediately jumped sideways to dodge.
Su Xiao's reaction was very fast, but his already injured body dragged him down; the muscles in his lower abdomen twitched uncontrollably, and his side-jump movement became distorted.
"Bang."
Nishio Nishiki's kagune whipped Su Xiao's back, and a bloodstain appeared. Even Nishio Nishiki himself couldn't believe that this strike had hit.
Seeing the bloodstains beneath Su Xiao, Nishio Nishiki adjusted his glasses and sneered.
"Mr. Black Reaper, you seem to be severely injured."
If it were in the past, Nishio Nishiki would have been directly killed in seconds if he fought Su Xiao.
But Su Xiao was currently injured and could only burst out with his usual combat power for an instant, which gave Nishio Nishiki an opportunity.
Nishio Nishiki rushed to Su Xiao in a few steps, his kagune stabbing toward Su Xiao somewhat clumsily.
Dodging the incoming kagune sideways, what followed was Nishio Nishiki's "clumsy punches."
After a series of left and right hooks missed, Nishio Nishiki looked somewhat displeased.
Dodging Nishio Nishiki's series of attacks, Su Xiao gripped the Checking Zhan Long Shan in his hand, took a deep breath, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
Pale blue electric arcs appeared on the surface of Checking Zhan Long Shan. Su Xiao pressed his left hand hard against the wound on his lower abdomen, forcibly bursting out his usual state.
Checking Zhan Long Shan pointed directly at the ground, emitting a crisp blade hum.
"Zheng."
A white thin line flashed, and Su Xiao severed one of Nishio Nishiki's palms with a single blade.
Nishio Nishiki looked at his severed hand in astonishment, not realizing what had happened at all.
"Senior Nishio."
Ken Kaneki's wounds recovered, and after leaping up from the ground, he ran over quickly, wanting to support Nishio Nishiki.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Su Xiao's second blade had already been slashed out.
The blade edge swept across flesh and blood; Nishio Nishiki suddenly felt the world spinning, a buzzing sound in his ears, and then everything went pitch black before his eyes.
With a thud, the corpse fell to the ground. In Su Xiao's severely injured state, Nishio Nishiki was killed in two slashes.
"Nishio!"
Touka, lying on the ground, was heartbroken seeing the scene in front of her. Nishio Nishiki was also a member of Anteiku; after spending time together, Touka and Nishio Nishiki had developed some friendship.
"Senior Nishio."
Ken Kaneki's voice was not loud, his head hanging low.
"Once again, once again someone I value is taken away; absolutely unforgivable."
Ken Kaneki's shoulders shook, saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth. Su Xiao suspected that the other party had been tortured by Nico into having problems; at least his mental state wasn't very normal.
Ken Kaneki pressed his thumb against his index finger, making a crisp cracking sound.
"Kill you."
While Ken Kaneki was muttering, Su Xiao had already crossed Nishio Nishiki's corpse and rushed toward Ken Kaneki.
Now time was life; Su Xiao was losing blood rapidly, and he couldn't hold on for too long.
When his body showed signs of weakness, Su Xiao could only choose to retreat temporarily; fortunately, he still had the strength to fight at this moment.
In front of him was the protagonist of the Ghoul World; he wanted to try and see what he would obtain if he killed Ken Kaneki.
Killing specific enemies in a derived world could yield very generous rewards.
Just like the king he killed in the Pirate World; the other party's strength was trashy, but he was the ruler of a country, and the dropped treasure chest opened up items of extremely high value.
The white treasure chest represented the owner's strength; the reason it could open the 【World Tree Ring】 was because of the other party's status.
Su Xiao rushed toward Ken Kaneki quickly; Ken Kaneki's current mental state was very unstable, which made Su Xiao vigilant.
"What is 1000 minus 7?"
Ken Kaneki suddenly raised his head, his eyes staring straight at Su Xiao.
But what greeted him was a sharp blade flashing with cold light.
What is 1000 minus 7? It equals one blade!
Su Xiao used his full strength for this blade, the long blade sweeping across Ken Kaneki's chest, carving out a terrifying wound.
At the moment the wound appeared, Su Xiao even saw Ken Kaneki's heart beating.
Suffering such a severe injury, Ken Kaneki spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood.
Su Xiao's eyelids drooped, saying nothing.
Usually, he would provoke enemies during battle, but now it was different; he was severely injured and had to finish the battle quickly.
Severely wounding Ken Kaneki with one blade, Su Xiao didn't stop, the long blade in his hand slashing rapidly.
"Splurt, splurt……."
After a few blades, terrifying wounds appeared on Ken Kaneki's chest, throat, and other vital parts.
Massive blood loss caused Su Xiao to feel a slight sense of dizziness, and the power of his slashes weakened significantly.
Suffering such severe injuries, Ken Kaneki showed no signs of falling, instead pouncing toward Su Xiao, throwing a punch toward Su Xiao's face.
From this punch, one could see that Ken Kaneki had received some combat training, but that was all.
Although Ken Kaneki had transformed from an ordinary person into an S+-strength ghoul, there was still a gap between him and a warrior.
Holding the blade backhanded, Su Xiao blocked the blade edge in front of him, meeting Ken Kaneki's punch.
The blade edge collided with flesh; the consequences were imaginable, and several of Ken Kaneki's fingers were severed.
Ken Kaneki's combat experience was insufficient, but this guy had extremely strong recovery power; as long as his head wasn't severed, he wouldn't stop fighting.
Ken Kaneki's kagune was currently wrapped around his neck to avoid being decapitated; it seemed Nishio Nishiki's miserable death had taught Ken Kaneki a lesson.
Although Ken Kaneki looked like he was having a mental breakdown, his reason still remained, and he knew how to protect his vital parts.
A strange scene appeared on the rooftop: Su Xiao held a sharp blade and was beating Ken Kaneki up, but his own complexion was becoming paler and paler.
Now it was a battle of endurance, to see if Ken Kaneki would be slashed to pieces by him first, or if he would lose his combat capability due to excessive blood loss.
