Chapter 172 – Overwhelming Power
“… “
When Tsukihara Tanjiro arrived, Kim Hyeon-jun, who had already slaughtered his subordinates, had disappeared, and Tanjiro, who had no tracking characteristics, joined Ryojin Takaba, who had pursuers in the detached unit, and traces of Jackson, who were heading to the same place as Kim Hyun-jun. Chased after
And not long after the pursuit of Tanjiro, who was running with a subordinate with tracking characteristics in one hand, started chasing Kim Hyun-joon and Jackson, who were on the move, at the end of his field of vision, Tanjiro grabbed his subordinate, who was holding it like a plastic bag. I threw it to the side and started to accelerate even more.
But at that moment, a flare caught Tanjiro’s footsteps.
Pew!!
“… “
The flare that turned the sky red was on the side of the underground bunker, and the flare was the flare that people had received from Hajin for rescue.
However, Tanjiro, who did not know the meaning of the flare, sent Ryojin, who had just followed him, there because the underground bunker he used as a laboratory and even more important, Dr. Mashiki, could be in danger.
“You go back and ensure the doctor’s safety.”
“All right.”
“Then take my detached team.”
“Not required. Target confirmed.”
“All right. Then I will go back and secure Dr. Mashiki and then rejoin you.”
Tanjiro nodded slightly, then turned around and started chasing Kim Hyun-joon and Jackson again, and Kim Hyun-joon and Jackson, who noticed Tanjiro’s pursuit, increased their speed to the maximum and headed to the meeting place.
Of course, since there is only one person chasing them now and it is not clear whether it is Tanjiro, it is rather an opportunity to eliminate the pursuer, but the speed and momentum shown by Tanjiro are telling them not to do such stupid things, so they make a foolish choice. Could not
But that didn’t solve the situation.
Doo doo doo!!!
“… “
The clearer the distance between the two, the clearer the sound of the helicopter.
There were no large buildings or high-rise buildings suitable for helicopter landing in the surrounding area, but Tanjiro, who remembered the experience of missing Hajin last time and the sound of the helicopter started to bother him, changed the direction of movement a little.
Tadadat-
The rooftop of a villa that arrived quickly.
Tanjiro threw the slanting rooftop door into the air, along with the Japanese sword that had been sheathed and was going back into the scabbard, and at the same time stepped on the roof railing and jumped up.
As soon as Tanjiro’s body soared at a speed faster than the flying door, losing momentum and slowing down, he trampled on the door that landed right under his feet and jumped once again, closing the distance from the helicopter orbiting in the air.
With the eyes that seemed to be thrown away and radiating eye light, he grabbed the handle of the Japanese sword in the scabbard with his right hand, which was brought to his left waist, and pulled it out as if it were drawn diagonally up.
Awesome!!!!
A Japanese sword drawn as if tore through the air.
Obviously, the distance from the chopper was so far that the blade could not reach it, but the chopper was cut straight like paper touched by a sharp blade.
GRUG GRUG!!!!
The planes of the helicopter, which were cut at a slight angle, slid against each other, making an eye-popping noise, and the moment the falling propeller passed the side of the cockpit, an explosion occurred.
Aaaaa!!!!!
Srrrr- Arrive!!
Tanjiro, who cut the chopper so easily, put the knife back in and landed on the rooftop across from people. After a while, as the split chopper engulfed in flames fell overhead, people fled the roof in a panic.
Kwaaang!!!
Cuckoo Cuckoo Palace!!!
As the cracked helicopter landed on the roof, the somewhat underdeveloped villa collapsed as it was, and Hyeon-jun Kim, Ji-hoon Kim, Jackson and Joo-hyeok Kwon, who reluctantly escaped to the rooftop where Tanji-ro was located, swallowed dry saliva while receiving Tanji-ro’s frightening gaze that seemed to pierce their hearts. .
“That guy right..? The guy who threw a knife at Ha Jin… “
“Uh… And I think we’re screwed..?”
“Fuck… “
Kwon Joo-hyeok and Kim Ji-hoon, who intuitively sensed that they were in the worst situation, fixed their weapons with a more serious expression than ever, instead of the triumphant smile they were wearing a moment ago.
And the voice of Kim Hyun-joon that flows out.
“Jackson, take the kids and run away. I will buy time.”
“Leader… “
“Don’t worry about me. I will definitely go back.”
“Leader… “
“No time! Come on!!”
“Let me talk too, Captain. I can’t stand it alone. We can’t run away Get caught right away.”
“… “
Kim Hyun-joon, who looked embarrassed at Jackson’s words, who thought he was hesitating because he was worried about himself, checked the remaining time of the trait.
[Feral Force (A) has 47 minutes remaining.]
『Wild Power (A) – Strength +30%, Speed +30%, Stamina +10%. When activated, strengthens and transforms the body for 60 minutes, Strength +60%, Speed +60%, Stamina +20%. Cooldown 1 hour.』
A duration that is still sufficiently time-consuming.
But the question is, what level is Tanjiro’s power?
A blown up helicopter, an escape that can only be done on foot.
The best situation is to succeed in escaping with only the strength of the four people here, but if that is not possible, hold out until Ha-jin, who confirms that the helicopter exploded, comes here.
“He doesn’t exist.”
The first words that came out of Tanjiro’s mouth as he looked at Kim Hyun-joon, Jackson, Kim Ji-hoon, and Kwon Joo-hyuk in turn.
And the moment Tanjiro’s head slightly turned toward the direction of the underground bunker, Kim Hyun-joon and Kim Ji-hoon started to move with all their might.
Shahah!!!!
The sharp claws wielded by Kim Hyeon-jun, who appeared in front of Tanji-ro before he knew it.
Swoop-
Without even looking at Tanjiro, he lightly pulls his body back and avoids the swinging of his nails, and Kim Ji-hoon passes by Kim Hyun-joon, who is slightly floating in the air, aiming for Tanjiro’s left knee and stabbing Kim Ji-hoon.
Shiiyik!!!
“Ah… “
A short sigh flowed from Kim Ji-hoon’s mouth, who was attacking.
It was because Tanjiro’s knee, which was supposed to be at the point of the sword, was lifted to the side, and his left leg hanging underneath it was approaching right in front of his eyes.
That is at the moment when a sharp sense sends a danger signal.
What to avoid? Blocking?
There is no time to do it physically.
The best Kim Ji-hoon can do now is to hold his neck down like Zara so as not to break his neck.
Dig-!!
Kim Ji-hoon, who disappeared with a somewhat light-hearted sound, passed Kwon Joo-hyuk, who had just wide-eyed, and escaped from the rooftop.
“Ji… “
Kwon Joo-hyeok, who tried to turn his head while calling the name of Kim Ji-hoon, who had disappeared, couldn’t bear to call his name and couldn’t even turn his eyes properly, let alone his head.
Kaang!!!!
It was because Kim Hyun-joon soared into the air with a sudden resounding metal sound.
And at some point, the Japanese sword in Tanjiro’s hand was lightly drawn horizontally toward Kwon Ju-hyuk, who was making a blank expression, and Jackson hurriedly blocked Kwon Ju-hyuk, who couldn’t even understand what was happening, and crossed himself. I covered my face with both arms.
Tuk-tuduk-tuduk-
Following the sound of something falling, Kwon Joo-hyeok’s gaze went down, and blood formed a puddle in his gaze toward the floor after passing through Jackson’s reliable broad back.
“Jackson!!!”
“Run away..!”
The words he uttered with difficulty, enduring the pain felt from the two arms drawn horizontally.
But where to run away?
Tanjiro in front of me was emitting a sense of fear that he would split his body in half as soon as he moved. Maybe it was intentional, but Tanjiro and himself were the only ones on the roof of this building, but Sendo, Yui, and their detached troops were camped on the rooftops of nearby buildings. .
There was no such thing as a living person who could escape this place alive anywhere.
The only thing I could hope for was Kim Hyun-jun, but…
Shahah!!!!
The body that had soared into the air fell down and the claws cut through the air again. The moment he pulled out his left foot and swung his opposite hand toward Tanjiro, who had turned his body to the side, the blood flowing from the blood lines that formed in Kim Hyun-jun’s stomach rippled through the lower half of his body. Dyed red
Of course, the attack didn’t knock Kim Hyeon-jun, but Tanjiro’s Japanese sword was already swinging fast enough to slash Kim Hyeon-jun’s head, making him think that it would be better for him to fall.
Knock!!! The extreme!!!!
Kim Hyeon-joon bites the Japanese sword that is being swung with the sharp teeth sprouting from his elongated snout.
Nevertheless, the Japanese sword that kept slipping in almost cut off his head, but fortunately, the sharp nails growing on both hands blocked the blade together, and the Japanese sword, which slightly cut the corner of the mouth, did not move anymore.
“Funny.”
“… “
Seeing Kim Hyeon-Jun holding his knife in his mouth, Tanjiro put a light smile on his lips, and his knee was stuck in Kim Hyeon-Jun’s stomach.
Poop!!!
“Keugh..!!!”
Kim Hyeon-joon does not open his mouth, which is tightly closed even as the pain surges through his body.
Kim Hyeon-joon could not open his closed mouth even if he died, knowing full well that if he opened his mouth in pain, the knife between his teeth would cut his head.
Of course, he couldn’t take the two hands that were blocking the blade with his fingernails.
And as if thinking of Kim Hyeon-joon’s desperate struggle as a game, Tanjiro’s left fist, which continued to attack only the abdomen, this time broke his ribs and pierced his side.
Poop!!
Awesome!!!
“Ugh..!!!”
The moment he was slightly weakened by the successive shocks applied to his abdomen, the Japanese sword caught between his teeth penetrated very finely, and Kim Hyun-jun bit the sword as hard as he could again and pushed it away with his fingernails.
And at that moment, the thought that came to Kim Hyun-joon’s head.
‘Without this, this guy’s level of danger is significantly reduced! I have to take this away!’
Tanjiro’s hands and feet striking the abdomen cause tremendous pain, but unlike a Japanese sword that can end in one blow, he can endure it.
As proof of that, Kim Hyeon-jun himself is still standing on his own two feet.
Therefore, Kim Hyeon-jun thought only of taking the Japanese sword without considering getting out of this situation and attacking at all.
And Kwon Joo-hyuk and Jackson move to help Kim Hyun-joon in crisis.
“I will be the bait!! You save the captain!”
“Danger… Damm it!!”
I was worried about Joo-Hyuk Kwon running out while holding the Battle X, but everyone dies the moment Kim Hyun-Jun dies anyway.
And, although not as much as himself, Kwon Joo-hyeok’s defense is also quite high, so Jackson ran forward, hoping that he would not die at once.
“Aaaaa!!! Die!!!!”
“Ugh!!!”
(Don’t do it!!!)
Kwon Joo-hyeok jumped up from behind and slammed down the Battle X, apparently out of his mind, and Kim Hyun-jun kept his mouth shut and screamed, but the Battle X did not stop falling with such force that it seemed to split both Tanjiro and Kim Hyun-jun apart.
Of course, very fortunately, before the Battle X fell down, Tanjiro’s left fist struck Kwon Joo-hyuk in the face with his left foot forward.
Baek!!!
Swish swish swish!!!
Kwon Joo-hyeok, who let the Battle X out of his hand with a fist stuck in his face, spun around the air like a waterwheel and crashed to the floor.
“Damn… It hurts… “
Joo-Hyuk Kwon, who was shaky and spread out on the floor, grabbed Tanjiro’s ankle in the gear of the Koopa Koonggeum, and the moment Tanjiro’s foot, slightly frowning at the slickness, escaped Joo-Hyuk Kwon’s hand and kicked him in the face, a gigantic Jack Shin stepped between Kim Hyun-joon and Tanjiro and grabbed Tanjiro’s right arm as if hugging him.
“Leader! Get out!!”
“Ughhhhh!!”
(It’s not that!!)
“It’s hard to hold on! Hurry..!!”
Puck puck!!!
Tanjiro’s fist stabbed Jackson in the back of his head.
However, Jackson’s sacrifice was colorless, and Kim Hyun-joon shook his head as if his face was trembling, but he did not think of escaping.
In the meantime, Jackson, who had not only a bumpy back of his head, but also a knee pierced in the pit of the stomach and a fist pierced in the side like Kim Hyun-jun, his face gradually distorted in pain, and thanks to such sacrifice, the burden on his teeth and nails blocking the blade slightly eased, and he lifted his right hand. Kim Hyun-joon, who took it off, cut his sharp fingernails at Tanjiro’s wrist.
Shahah!!!
Woe!!!
Unfortunately, this time too, Kim Hyun-joon’s fingernails missed Tanjiro’s arm, which escaped like a loach, and cut through the air. .
‘Done!!’
Kim Hyun-joon felt the pleasure and thrill of taking away his opponent’s most threatening weapon.
However, his right hand, which escaped like a mudfish, was stuck in Jackson’s face and flew to the end of the roof, hitting Kim Hyun-jun.
Wow!!!
Do-doo-duduk!!!
The bumped Oksan railing shattered as it was, and the two of them fell down the building along with thick lumps of cement. He thrust a face contorted in pain toward him.
“Leader..! Why the hell did you hesitate…!!”
“Because of this. Now he’s got a weapon… “
Serureung-
Another Japanese sword pulled out of its scabbard and Kim Hyun-joon blinking his eyes with a blank face.
Unfortunately for Tanjiro, not only the Japanese sword he had picked up again, but also a Japanese sword that had not yet been pulled out of his waist was quietly stuck in the scabbard.
“… There were more Sorry, I didn’t see it.”
“Such an idiot..!!”
So the situation is back to square one.
No, rather a situation that got worse from the beginning.
The fate of Kim Ji-hoon, who had flown somewhere, was unknown, and Kwon Joo-hyeok, who was stuck in a corner of the rooftop, was muttering something but was in a state of insanity.
And again, Tanjiro takes a step forward toward Kim Hyeonjun and Jackson.
But at that moment, Tanjiro’s eyes widened slightly.
Ttareun~ Ttarung~
“Ringleung~ Followerleung~ Get out of the way~ Kang Ha-jin is leaving, followerleung~”
“… “
“… “
Squeaky!!
With the brakes, the front wheel of a bicycle suddenly cuts in between Hyun-Jun Kim and Jackson.
Then Ha-jin, who appeared while singing a song that did not go well with the serious situation, turned her head and said to Kim Hyun-jun and Jackson, who were staring blankly at her.
“Get out of the way, don’t get in the way.”
