“Now I’ve changed my mind. I’m not just going to tear you apart and stomp on you, I’m going to eat you too!”
Facing his taunts, Gecko trembled with rage, his bloodshot eyes almost popping out.
A roar and a growl came from beneath his mask, like an enraged beast.
Crack~
A crisp sound rang out as Gecko broke his own finger.
Dark red Kagune spread along his arm until it completely enveloped half of his body.
“So he’s finally using his Half-Kakuja state?”
Seeing this, Lin Ze’s eyes instantly flashed with a glint.
When he used to watch the anime, he thought this state looked ugly and unappealing.
But there was a strange sense of dominance, a strong oppressive feeling.
And…
Lin Ze was very curious about this.
What would it feel like to cut him in his Half-Kakuja state?
Gecko’s knees bent slightly, and he squatted down.
“Yes, just like that, squatting on the ground like a true Gecko.”
Lin Ze leaned on the hilt of his blade, looking very satisfied.
The next moment, the ground beneath Gecko’s feet suddenly shattered, and his body vanished from its spot.
His speed was incredibly fast, completely on a different level than before.
Lin Ze instantly pulled his long blade from the ground and held it horizontally in front of him to block.
“Kill you, kill you, kill you…”
In an instant, Gecko’s Kagune-covered fist struck with a powerful oppressive force.
Bang~
The huge impact sent Lin Ze flying backward, crashing heavily into the wall.
The wall was damaged, a large amount of bricks and tiles fell to the ground, and a cloud of dust and sand rose around them.
“How could a human’s fragile body possibly withstand my attack?”
“Childish playtime is over. Now it’s time for the adults!”
Gecko licked his lips, a hint of excitement flashing in his crimson eyes.
“I finally found such an interesting toy. Don’t die so quickly.”
“I want to dismantle you piece by piece, then reassemble you, then dismantle you again!”
Just thinking about it, Gecko clutched his head, trembling with excitement.
“That’s what I should be saying to you.”
As the smoke cleared, Lin Ze walked out, completely unharmed.
“How is that possible? With that impact, how could you not have sustained any damage?”
Looking at the scattered brick fragments and the badly damaged wall.
Gecko instinctively took a step back, finding it hard to believe.
To face such an attack and remain completely unharmed.
Was he really human?
“Do humans really have such physical prowess?”
Even Kamishiro Rize, who had been watching from afar, murmured softly.
“But with such a strong body, wouldn’t he be even more delicious?”
As if thinking of something, Kamishiro Rize licked her full red lips, her delicate face looking exceptionally alluring.
“The strength is indeed greater than I imagined.”
Lin Ze placed his hand on his neck and stretched it from side to side.
He hadn’t used his full strength to take that blow just now.
His goal was to see how strong his body truly was with the Ox Talisman’s enhancement.
Now it seemed his physical abilities were stronger than he had imagined.
“But… useless…”
As soon as his voice fell, a flash of a blade streaked across Gecko’s eyes.
It was incredibly fast. The moment he reacted, he immediately raised his arm to block.
But before he could react, Lin Ze’s sharp blade had already arrived.
Too late to dodge, his Kagune-covered arm collided with the Quinque long blade.
Bang~
A crisp collision sound echoed in the air, along with a shattering sound.
This time, Gecko’s arm was not severed.
Instead, fine cracks appeared on Lin Ze’s Quinque long blade.
“Your strength is indeed exaggerated, but this blade of yours can’t harm me in the slightest!”
Gecko laughed wildly, looking completely insane and excited.
“Is that so?”
Lin Ze showed no panic, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes instead.
The hardness of a regular Third-Class Investigator’s Quinque was indeed more brittle than he had imagined.
However…
This was already enough.
The next second, Lin Ze turned the long blade and swung it upwards with force.
Rip~
In an instant, the Kagune wrapped around Gecko’s arm was directly cut open, creating a slit.
Without the Kagune’s covering, his original arm was exposed inside.
With a flash of the blade, flesh and blood flew, and his entire arm was completely chopped off.
“How is this possible? How dare you!”
Gecko clutched the wound on his shoulder and took a step back, his crimson pupils trembling uncontrollably.
He understood now that this human in front of him could not be measured by common sense.
If he didn’t go all out now, he would definitely die here!
“Weren’t you going to dismantle my limbs?”
“How come your arm was dismantled first?”
Lin Ze picked up Gecko’s severed limb from the ground, as if he had found a toy.
“Kill you, slaughter you, eat you, crush you, die!”
The white mask fell from his face, revealing Gecko’s ferocious and terrifying visage.
Dark red Kagune continuously emerged from his body, further enveloping him, almost completely devouring his entire face.
The next second, both of them vanished from their original positions at the same time.
Crack~
Crack~
Crack~
Crisp collision sounds continuously echoed in the air, growing louder and louder.
Countless cracks appeared out of nowhere on the walls, and even the ground was constantly shattering.
“Got him!”
The moment the two collided again, Gecko sneered, a hint of cruelty flashing in his eyes.
A blood-red Kagune, covered in barbs, grew out from behind his body.
Lin Ze raised his blade to block, but unexpectedly, it was directly entangled.
Bang~
The long blade was directly thrown away, landing on the ground with a crisp sound.
“Without your blade, you’re nothing but a fly with broken wings.”
“I’d like to see what you’ll fight me with now that you don’t have your blade?”
Gecko laughed wildly, excited and satisfied, saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth.
No matter how strong an Investigator was, without their weapon, without their Quinque, they were ultimately just ordinary humans.
Even if this monster in front of him was strong, without his blade, he was useless!
This battle, after all, was his to win!
Satisfaction and pleasure filled Gecko’s heart, making him want to declare victory right now.
“Oh, really?”
Lin Ze chuckled softly and raised his fist.
Boom~
With one punch, Gecko’s massive body was brutally slammed into the ground.
“How… is this possible!”
Gecko spat out a mouthful of blood, a hint of terror flashing in his eyes.
How could he still possess such astonishing power?
Could it be that his previous strength was still restrained?
In an instant, a terrifying thought flashed through Gecko’s mind.
“Let me tell you something good…”
Lin Ze leaned in, his cold voice carrying a faint smile.
“What is 1000-7?”
