chapter 28
28 – Episode 28. Yakuzo Death Beam (3)
An abandoned well in a corner of Goldon Square.
Since it was deemed useless as the groundwater did not accumulate, the ancestors had sealed the bottom with wooden planks. Inside there, a young boy poked his head out and observed the black giant.
– Watch me!
When he appeared like lightning and swung his sword, the thieves couldn’t even resist and fell down.
Boom boom boom boom!
To a young child, it was an excessively brutal scene, but to the boy, nothing else caught his eye except for the giant’s exploits.
“Escape… Ninja.”
The hands of the boy holding the piece of wood trembled with excitement.
“He… is a guardian deity!”
***
However, Delbanas did not use his wide-area attack again.
Bang!
“Oops~!”
The Yakuzas exploded like ripe tomatoes when hit with a jet kick.
Honestly, it’s quite refreshing.
I wonder if the Powerd-Mountain Gorilla felt the same way when it was being swatted like a fly?
“Don’t, don’t run away, gather!”
The glasses-wearing guy shouted, trying to command them somehow, but the Yakuzas, who were not samurais, wouldn’t follow orders calmly in the face of fear.
Delbanas just stood there, staring from a distance.
He’s been observing like that since earlier, so I canceled the ninja reinforcement.
Does this bastard believe he can stop violence with just his gaze? What a delusional loser.
I guess he thinks that because he wears an eyepatch.
“Hey, try using your wide-area attack.”
“…”
For some reason, Delbanas didn’t launch his third wide-area attack.
Could it be that there’s a limit to the number of times he can use it or that it consumes a lot of energy?
In this situation, it wasn’t easy to move forward, as there were too many thieves that needed to be dealt with quickly.
Swish!
“Ha!”
Another head rolled.
I must have killed about 150 of them.
Those bastards realized they couldn’t defeat me no matter what tricks they tried, so they didn’t come any closer.
My pants are now perfectly familiar.
Sometimes, when I’m bored, I think about wearing them backwards.
It’s not like I’ll wet myself while fighting.
“You idiots! I told you to stab me all at once! Just one person! Just one!”
The bespectacled guy with a strawberry-red face cursed.
“You son of a b*tch! Why don’t you try it yourself!”
“What, what did you say?”
“What, you bastard! How can you stab someone who’s flying around like a maniac!”
“That bastard doesn’t seem to get tired!”
“He should have just raided some nearby villages and disappeared!”
Now, there was a division within the Yakusa clan.
“That’s enough. I’ll handle it.”
Delbanas, who had been arrogantly watching from a safe place, finally got up.
“Why are you fighting against us? The lord doesn’t have money to hire someone like you.”
Oyabung asked.
The problem lies with the young Yakuzas.
They foolishly think they’re strong just because they hop around inside the well, beating up frogs, and always fight with ease, cocking their beaks.
Truly foolish bullfrogs.
“Ninja Hectopascal Kick.”
Without even responding or arguing, he immediately delivered a kick.
There was nothing else he did when he broke through the long distance in one breath.
“At least give me a response?”
Delbanas took out a strange sickle from his bosom.
What is this? The whip of love?
Shrrr-
As the sickle broke into pieces, it unfolded and transformed into a whip.
It’s confirmed that there is strange energy flowing between the connecting lines, a magical weapon.
Delbanas swung the transformed whip.
Splat-!
The sound effect is not ordinary.
My intuition tells me I have to avoid this.
Swish, swish!
I swung my arms widely to slow down.
Fortunately, it had an effect, and my flying body spun like a dandelion seed, slowly descending.
Bang!
As soon as my feet touched the ground, the whip struck the nearby earth, and electricity crackled and flowed from the impact.
An electric whip?!
To my horror, Delbanas’ whip had the special effect of electric shock.
“You like it? It has great stamina and speed.”
Delbanas smirked like the queen of the SM Club.
He must have struck the people like livestock with that whip; it’s unforgivable.
“Would you like to work with me?”
“D-Delbanas! That guy killed our comrades! Not just one or two, but hundreds!”
Delbanas attempted to persuade, while the bespectacled man hurriedly pointed out.
“Comrades? They’re nothing but insects. They’re everywhere, easy to find.”
The expressions of the Yakuza, who were watching from a distance, darkened.
If Oyabun says such things, it’s highly likely that there will be trouble.
“Well, that’s not important. What did the boss promise you? I can give you something better. Tell me what you want.”
Delbanas deluded himself into thinking that he held the reins of power.
“Yakuza must die.”
That was all I could say.
“Aren’t you from the Irugal Kingdom? Can’t communicate, huh?”
Delbanas swung his whip, which moved like a snake, towards me.
Snap!
He swiftly evaded the ninja sword and closed the distance.
The handle was not made of metal, so he wasn’t electrocuted.
Swoosh-!
The whip retracted like a measuring tape, and he raised his ninja sword again to block it.
But the enemy was still getting closer.
Creak!
The whip and the ninja sword clashed again, and sparks flew.
Shh-
Suddenly, the whip wrapped around the ninja sword like a snake coiling around a pillar.
The struggle continued.
Judging by the trembling of her arm, it seemed like I had the advantage in strength.
“Ha!”
Delbanas, who had lost in the power struggle, launched a kick with his right leg.
Even though he had one eye missing, he attacked with precise accuracy, as if he was used to it.
Thud!
I blocked it with my elbow and then turned my arm to grab her leg and pressed it against my side.
“Take this!”
While twisting her hips, Delbanas kicked with her left leg again.
Seeing her even floating in mid-air, it was clear she was a skilled fighter.
It seems that capturing her will be quite difficult.
He immediately blocked the attack with his shoulder, placing his right foot.
Thud!
His brain shook for a moment from the heavy and forceful attack.
A well-crafted weapon and a trained, strong body.
A stronger foe than Delamion.
If it continues like this, I won’t be able to conserve my energy.
As he struggled to regain his balance, he reached for her right hand holding the whip.
“Kkuk!”
He threw the shuriken that was wrapped around the whip.
“Huh?”
The shuriken and the whip flew simultaneously.
Now it’s time to settle this with pure hand-to-hand combat.
“-Takoyaki murder technique.”
I unleashed my best bare-handed killing technique.
My technique stormed towards her head at an incredible speed.
Thump!
Delvanas crossed his arms in an X shape and blocked my attack.
“What?!”
My hand was knocked away, and I had to take a step back to regain my balance.
My form was completely ruined.
“Ha!”
At that moment, Delbanas assumed the same posture as “Takoyaki Slaughter” and aimed for my forehead.
Takoyaki Slaughter counterattack?!?!
I didn’t have enough time to move my body and dodge, so I slightly turned my head to avoid it.
If I had been just a little bit slower, I would have fallen victim to my own technique.
“Yaaa!”
Seizing that opportunity, a large yakusa stabbed me with a knife.
“This idiot!”
This time, I agree with Delbanas’ words.
I pulled the blade with one hand and kicked the guy’s stomach.
“Slow.”
Whack~!
I kindly sent away the yakusa who came to replenish my weapons and immediately swung the knife at Delbanas.
“Coward!”
Coward? There’s no such thing in a fight.
It’s not a fight that should be fair and square, it’s a sport.
“Tsk!”
I lightly grazed her left thigh.
I swung with the intention of cutting it off completely, but her movements were faster than I expected and I missed.
Slish slish.
Yakuzah Oyabun spilled green blood.
It must be because he ate too many vegetables as usual.
“Oyabun, you’ve gotten weaker.”
His trembling arms were still shaking from the aftermath of blocking a takoyaki attack.
I had always been ahead in strength and basic stamina.
With his legs slightly injured, I now had the advantage in speed.
“Goodbye.”
“Argh!”
After kicking Delvanas’ shoulder with a jet kick, rendering his arm useless, I slashed her exposed neck.
Thud!
She was stronger than Delamion, but not several times stronger than before.
Drip…
Green blood poured out.
“aaargh! Boss~!”
Her head rolled on the ground, and the glasses-wearing hitman screamed.
Next is his turn…
Boom-thump!
Suddenly, Delvanas’ head floated in the air and attached itself to his neck!
Oooooong-
In this bizarre situation, while momentarily stunned, her blindfold, which had been vibrating and making strange noises, came undone and emitted a green light.
“Nungang!”
In response to that nonsensical eye terror, I immediately raised my left hand to block the light.
Ooong-
Now, Delbanas was completely glowing green.
“What on earth is this…”
Even the Yakuzas who were watching were startled, trembling.
A Yakuzas whose neck sticks together and emits its own light?
This is no longer a vegetable man.
Just a monster.
A monster with a head attached!?
Suddenly, a name flashed through my mind.
“Neyeon… the Underground Sovereign!”
The Underground Sovereign, once the king of the underground world, is a great monster recorded in Korean history books.
The characteristic of this monster is that even if its neck is cut off, it grows back again, just like Delbanas now.
The scholar-ninjas who were said to have exterminated him sprinkled ashes on the severed parts to prevent regeneration, but there’s no way there would be ashes on the battlefield.
Since I don’t have sharp fingers, I decided to keep cutting for now.
Just in case.
Ppong!
Judging by the fact that the pupil of the remaining eye didn’t return, it seems like he hasn’t regained his senses, so I need to press on now.
Booong-tak!
Here it goes again?
By now, it’s starting to get annoying.
Deng-geong! Buwoong-tak!
Deng-geong! Buwoong-tak!
Deng-geong! Buwoong-tak!
Deng-geong! Buwoong-tak!
Even after cutting off its arms and legs, they grew back without fail.
It’s not some magnetic toy or anything.
“H-How is it moving when its neck was cut off!”
“My body is burning green!”
“Cut off, grew back, cut off, grew back…”
“eeek!”
The Yakuzas, completely fed up, threw their swords and started running away, while the Glasses Guy grabbed the back of his neck and dozed off.
Just as I was thinking of changing my approach and trying to grind it up like a steak, Delbanas moved.
