Chapter 501: The Bloody First Night!
The fierce battle between Mima Amatori and Tengen Uzui attracted more and more Audience members to switch their Screen Feed Viewpoint to their fight. Even the Propaganda Department's Media Division intentionally made it the main Viewpoint.
Tengen Uzui.
After joining the World Government, he not only served as the Jonin Instructor of the 'Sound Breathing Style' at the Sea Ninja Village.
He also voluntarily submitted his ancestral special Gunpowder formula, the Technology for forging Exploding Nichirin Blade, the manufacturing Technology for mechanical ninja tools, and the method for cultivating Ninja Beasts.
Because of this, he obtained a large amount of initial Merit, far exceeding that of other Hashira.
Using this Merit, he first didn't hesitate to exchange for four tubes of 'Perfect Type 1 Cell Enhancement Serum', and then exchanged for the 'Six Powers Basic Martial Arts Cultivation Method', 'Life Return Cultivation Method', 'Armament Haki Cultivation Method', and 'Observation Haki Awakening Method'.
Thus,
His Merit was almost entirely used up.
But Tengen Uzui didn't feel it was a waste at all. Instead, he felt these things were excellent items that could be passed down through generations.
This also made his Strength already much Stronger than Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Hashira.
So, things are unpredictable.
If the World Government hadn't appeared, how could this Sound Hashira, who was called the 'Bottom of the Nine Hashira' or even the 'Weakest among the Hashira' by many in Im's Previous Life, have had the opportunity to possess such Strength?
This directly led to Mima Amatori, who was fiercely fighting Tengen Uzui, feeling increasingly strained as Time slowly passed.
"Such a fast Blade, such a heavy Blade, and such troublesome Explosions and sounds..."
Mima Amatori gritted his teeth, his Mind also becoming heavy.
He originally thought that since he had also enhanced his Total Cell Count and mastered Armament Haki and Observation Haki, he might gain some Advantage.
But he didn't expect to be suppressed from the start. Every Blade clash caused a sharp pain in the web of his hand, and the close-range Sonic Boom sounds were constantly assaulting his ears.
Also,
That damned Woman was watching him from a distance, which forced him to constantly divert some of his Mind to stay vigilant, adding insult to injury.
"I can't keep fighting!"
Mima Amatori's Gaze sharpened.
His Target was the 'Top Ten', he shouldn't waste so much effort in the Selection Trial.
Moreover, he had already seen that there was no Killing Intent in this Jonin Uzui's attacks.
Although he was quite disdainful of such naive actions and thoughts, he had to admit it was something he could exploit.
Immediately, using the Strength from the collision and resulting Explosion of their Blades once again, Mima Amatori quickly used this Strength to fly back, then without any unnecessary words, he turned and ran.
He was gambling that Tengen Uzui wouldn't take the opportunity to attack his back.
"Eh, is he leaving already? My 'Score' was almost complete..."
Tengen Uzui gave a slight Shake Head and sighed, feeling a bit regretful.
At the same time, his Observation Haki was tightly watching Mekko's Commotion, because he felt there was a much higher chance of this foolish Woman attacking him.
But until Mima Amatori turned into an Afterimage and disappeared into the Jungle, Mekko just watched silently.
"Mima, our Grudges are settled..."
In fact, if she and Tengen Uzui had teamed up, with the latter responsible for entanglement and herself for precise sniping, Mima Amatori definitely wouldn't have been able to run.
But Mekko wanted to use this 'Mercy' to settle their past Matters.
This also made her feel relieved inside. Her entire Mind instantly relaxed a lot. She directly removed the Black Armor from her face, revealing her bright Appearance, then did a flip and jumped to Tengen Uzui's side.
"Jonin Uzui, thank you for saving me. After this Selection Trial ends, I will give you two million Berry as a reward!"
Mekko Smile as she looked at him.
"As expected, a gorgeous Beauty!"
Tengen Uzui proudly lifted his chin. He was proud of his accurate eyesight. It was this appearance that Mekko found quite amusing, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You're really interesting. Where should we go next?"
"I am your Guard now, so wherever you want to go, I will follow."
"I just want to find a place with few people to wait for this competition to end."
"Good idea!"
The two chatted very congenially. One wanted to avoid killing as much as possible, and the other wanted to find a quiet place. They hit it off perfectly.
However, their cheerful appearance made Captain Guts of the CIPHER POL Headquarters felt a Black Line, and a sense of crisis unconsciously arose in his Heart.
Original Copy because Mima Amatori tried to kill Mekko, the Anger that had arisen gradually mixed with a hint of sourness.
But speaking of the person in the worst mood.
That would have to be the Audience from the Kabaneri World. When Mima Amatori turned and ran, the loud cheers and shouts of encouragement came to an abrupt halt.
After Reaction, there was a surge of angry scolding.
It truly demonstrated what it means for greater expectations to lead to greater disappointment, vividly and clearly.
In contrast,
The Citizens of the Demon Slayer World were incredibly Excitement. They had completely remembered the Name 'Tengen Uzui', and at the same time, they were more curious about the Matters of the Demon Slayer Corps.
It is believed that it won't be long before the Demon Slayer Corps, which had always been hidden from the World, will be completely exposed on the surface.
The first Selection Trial on the four Islands in the East, South, West, and North Sea Areas was still ongoing. Gradually, the sky grew dim.
Soon,
Dusk arrived and quickly 'walked' into the Night. The sky was filled with Starlight covering the pitch-black Night sky, and a large Bright Moon cast its pure Moonlight.
The Environment on the Island did not become quiet because of this. Instead, it became even more terrifying and bloody.
Darkness is often the best accomplice for Slaughter.
This Selection Trial only started at noon, so the participants felt no fatigue at all. Moreover, most of them were Sea Star People, with extremely abundant Stamina. Combat continuously for one or two days was not a problem.
Listen.
The Screams of the dying, the Gunshots, the Explosion sounds, the sound of Blades clashing, the sound of Trees falling, and the angry roars emitted by some Wild Beasts or Dinosaurs.
The Smell of Blood in the Air was becoming increasingly obvious.
North Blue arena, Garsas Island.
In the Forest near the swampy Zone to the west, a twelve-meter-tall Pure Titan was grinning and playfully trying to grab a nimble figure rapidly darting around it.
"Flame Breathing, Third Form, Blazing Universe!"
Suddenly, surging Gunfire Flash appeared behind the Pure Titan's head. The bright Radiance made it stop its movements subconsciously, but just as it was about to turn its head to look, the nape of its neck was cut off, sending Blood splashing.
This caused it to quickly lose Strength, and it fell to the ground with a bang. Its naked Body began to slowly dissipate into Steam.
"Well done, Sanemi!"
Kyojuro Rengoku landed steadily from mid-air and showed a hearty Smile, giving a thumbs-up gesture to Sanemi Shinazugawa, who was responsible for attracting the Pure Titan.
But Sanemi Shinazugawa found this overly enthusiastic approach a bit difficult to accept. He just nodded Expressionlessly, then looked at the Pure Titan's Body and commented coldly.
"This kind of Pure Titan only has a large Physique/Build and Strength, its movements are quite sluggish, and its brain isn't very good either. Oh, right, its skin hardness is decent, but it's only about the same as a Demon, it can't block the Sharpness of a Nichirin Blade."
