“ROOM!”
A transparent dome descended from the sky, instantly enveloping both Mig Jons and Hawkins within it.
On the tavern roof, Law, holding his long sword, extended his slender fingers and beckoned towards Hawkins and Jons.
“Shambles!”
With a swoosh, Hawkins, who had been knocked back and was coughing up blood, crashed onto the tiles next to Law.
Meanwhile, Ross disappeared from Law’s side and reappeared mid-air before Jons.
“Finger Pistol!”
The air shrieked as Ross thrust his finger directly towards Jons’ only eye.
If Ross could successfully blind Jons with a surprise attack, dealing with him afterward would be much easier!
With Law’s ability, Ross had practically teleported in front of Jons. Given their close proximity, the chance of the ambush succeeding was incredibly high!
Squelch!
“Great! It worked!” Drake exclaimed, clenching his fists excitedly on the rooftop.
However, Law furrowed his brows. “Something’s wrong.”
On the street below, Ross, who had thrust out his finger, showed a pained expression, looking at Jons with shock and anger.
Ross’s finger had indeed stabbed into Jons’ bloody eye. But instead of a normal eye, the eye socket morphed into a mouth full of sharp teeth, like a lamprey’s maw.
The teeth clamped down on Ross’s finger, breaking the skin, piercing the muscle, and crushing the bone.
“A bizarre ability. Mi-hahahaha! You almost got me,” Jons laughed, pulling off the black eyepatch covering his other eye, revealing a bloodshot eye.
Tauntingly, Jons looked at Ross’s pained expression and tightened his right fist, punching towards Ross’s abdomen.
“You must be the ones who killed Trull, right? Since you delivered yourself to me, it saves me the trouble of finding you!”
Rip!
Ross gritted his teeth and yanked his finger out of Jons’ mouth, leaving it bloodied and mangled.
Ignoring his injury, Ross clenched his right fist and swung it towards Jons’ massive incoming fist.
“He’s hurt! Switch! Law!” Drake shouted, worried about Ross’s safety.
“ROOM!”
Law opened his right hand, releasing a swirling wave of air, preparing to switch positions again.
At that moment, Hawkins, who had crashed onto the roof, called out a warning. “Watch out!”
Below, Hughton, the cyborg, grinned as his chest opened up, revealing a six-barrel Gatling gun.
“Be torn apart by a storm of bullets! Taste my Jerma war technology weapon!”
“Gatling Storm!”
Dakka dakka dakka dakka!
The six-barrel Gatling gun on Hughton’s chest whirred, unleashing a torrential rain of bullets towards the rooftop trio.
Bang bang bang!
Roof tiles shattered under the bullet storm, debris scattering everywhere.
Hawkins stood tall, his long sword flashing as he whirled it around, deflecting bullets with precise slashes.
“What? He can cut bullets with a sword?”
Hughton’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“He’s trained in Iai swordsmanship, with incredibly fast wrist movements and lightning-quick slashes! Use cannons!”
Xis, wielding dual swords, started running towards the tavern roof.
Realizing the strategy, Hughton stopped the Gatling gun, revealing two large cannon barrels from his shoulder shields.
Black cannonballs shot out, crashing into the tavern roof.
Boom! Boom!
Two massive explosions erupted, tearing the roof apart.
Inside the tavern, the chubby owner had already fled through the back door with his terrified son, Jimmy.
“Did we get them?”
Hughton shouted, running towards the tavern.
Just as Xis reached the tavern entrance, he sensed danger.
Above, the thick smoke parted, revealing three weapons hurtling down toward him with tremendous force.
“X! Hunting Ground!”
Drake, wielding a sword in his left hand and an axe in his right, slashed down in an X pattern.
His weapons, heavy and powerful, created a booming sound as they cut through the air.
From the left, a narrow-bladed long sword slashed towards Xis at lightning speed.
“Iai! Bamboo Cut!”
Too fast! Too sudden!
In desperation, Xis crossed his swords to block Drake’s heavy weapons while using his right hand to intercept Hawkins’ Iai slash.
Clang!
Two enormous forces crashed into Xis’s dual swords, pushing them back and striking his own body.
Thud!
Xis’s chest was slashed open by his own wide-bladed swords, soaking his clothes in blood.
He crashed to the ground, creating a deep crater in the street.
Not relenting, Drake descended, raising his weapons high to deliver another heavy strike at the blood-spitting Xis trying to rise.
“Gatling Storm!”
Dakka dakka dakka!
The torrent of bullets hit Drake, sending him crashing through the tavern wall into the interior.
Meanwhile, Ross’s fist collided with Jons’ massive punch, creating a violent shockwave that blew the surrounding dust away.
“Huh? Kid, you’ve got some strength!” Jons’ eyes widened, seeing Ross block his punch.
Ross gritted his teeth, ignoring his bleeding finger, and kicked towards Jons’ abdomen.
“You can’t just kick anywhere, kid!”
Jons grinned, his mouth revealing countless spiral teeth. His thick neck suddenly stretched like a spring, opening into a monstrous maw filled with rotating teeth.
If those teeth bit down, Ross’s leg would be shredded to the bone in seconds!
At that moment, the transparent dome reappeared, enveloping both fighters.
“ROOM! Shambles!”
Ross vanished, and Xis, who was getting up and spitting blood, found himself face-to-face with Jons’ monstrous maw.
The bloodthirsty teeth lunged towards Xis’s face.
