Chapter 148: A Knife Flip
Mori Ougai couldn't understand how things turned out like this.
Just as they entered the outer area of Raybo Street, which was the thickest part of the fog, a huge red dragon emerged from a tower not far from them, and then began to emit light waves from its mouth, causing destruction everywhere.
And because the dragon's body was too huge and long, the island where Rayo Street was located was not big enough for the dragon to stretch out. So after the dragon unfolded its body, half of its body was on the island where Rayo Street was located, and the other half... fell in Yokohama City.
The worst thing is that the half that can spit out light waves from its mouth fell to Yokohama City, and now all that is left in front of Mori Ugai is the tail of the dragon.
"...This isn't right." Sen Ou said in a daze with his eyes blank.
Ace beside him looked at the dragon and was eager to try. "Should we kill the dragon? Or catch it?"
Sen Ou realized that the man next to him wanted to catch the dragon, but he didn't respond immediately.
When the dragon appeared, he felt the palpitations he felt when special powers and peculiarities appeared, and he suspected that the dragon had special powers and peculiarities in its body.
There are two types of special abilities known so far. One is an unstable contradictory singularity generated by the collision of two identical, similar, opposite or opposing special abilities. The other is a stable special ability that is inherently contradictory. For the former, refer to Oda Sakunosuke and André Kidd, and for the latter, refer to Nakahara Chuuya and Verlaine.
This dragon gave Moriou an unexpected feeling, as if its power had been released and then turned from a stable to an unstable state. The situation was similar to that of Chuuya Nakahara when he activated "Filth", but the scope of influence was obviously much greater than that of Chuuya Nakahara's "Filth".
As the fog area has now expanded to the point where it can completely cover the area below a giant dragon and is still expanding, he suspects that the dragon might be a person with special abilities whose special features have been released.
The only person who meets this standard now is Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, the guy who came back from the dead. Maybe he didn't just come back from the dead, but became a vessel for some special ability.
The question now is how he managed to achieve such a large scope of influence.
As for capturing it alive, it would be basically impossible without Dazai Osamu's ability. The special features of this released ability are extremely unstable, and the dragon must be out of control. It is impossible to make it obedient.
But Ace wanted to let him try, so it was okay, since he wouldn't die again anyway.
So Mori Ogai said, "It depends on your wish."
Ace's eyes lit up, and his entire lower limbs turned into flames that sent him high into the sky and flew quickly towards the dragon's head.
Mori Owl: "..."
Hey guys, this is what Ace said before, elementalization, right? The whole person can turn into a natural element.
But then again, where did Dazai go at this time?
Based on Mori Ogai's understanding of Dazai Osamu, he originally thought that Dazai Osamu would be at the center of the incident, that is, the one who was behind the scenes.
He turned and looked at the tower from which the red dragon rushed out, as if thinking about something.
Even if he was there before, he should have come out now that things have turned out like this, right? Why is there no movement at all?
How about...he go over and take a look?
…
The Special Powers Department knew a little more about Dazai Osamu's whereabouts, mainly because Ango Sakaguchi, who knew Dazai Osamu well, had met him before he disappeared and got some vague clues.
However, he was only able to confirm what the other party was planning together with the demon Fyodor and Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, and he was unclear about more.
Mori Ogai asked Chuuya Nakahara to go to the Special Forces Division to investigate the situation, but he couldn't find anything useful. However, soon after he arrived there, the Special Forces Division's instruments detected that Yokohama's abnormality values were rising.
Then the red dragon appeared.
The only people in Yokohama who could possibly deal with this monster, besides Nakahara Chuuya, are the two true transcendents who have hidden away in the countryside to enjoy their lives.
The problem is that their identities are problematic. It doesn't matter if they do some work in private, but the size of the dragon is so huge that it is impossible to deal with it without exposing themselves.
It is even less likely that the Yokohama government will take the initiative to ask them for help. Some things are unspoken rules that everyone tacitly accepts, and once they are exposed, they cannot be properly resolved.
The only person I can ask for help is Nakahara Chuuya.
Sakaguchi Ango immediately made a decisive move and sent a helicopter to take Nakahara Chuuya to the vicinity of the giant dragon.
The fog area only covers a limited height. At least two-thirds of the dragon's body is outside the thick fog due to the altitude.
However, when the helicopter brought the people to the vicinity of the dragon and even opened the cabin, and Nakahara Chuuya was about to ignore the consequences and the pollution, suddenly a bright flame rushed up into the sky from below and rolled directly towards the dragon.
The woman assigned by the Special Powers Division, Tsujimura Fuyutsuki, who came out of the cluster capsule, also saw the abnormal situation and exclaimed in surprise: "What is this——"
Sakaguchi Ango's puzzled voice came from her earphone: [What's wrong, Tsujimura?]
The Special Powers Department can only monitor a limited amount of footage, and after being obstructed by thick fog and the destruction caused by the giant dragon, none of the monitoring equipment in that area is usable anymore. Currently, the only instrument that can be effective in that area is the energy monitoring device.
In order to prevent the invasion of thick fog, the location where the special forces were transferred to was completely closed. In other words, they could not see anything that could be seen outside.
Hearing Sakaguchi Ango's question, Tsujimura Fuzuki finally came to her senses. She answered with a tight voice: "The flame ability user who appeared in the Dragon War six years ago has appeared again."
There was a chorus of noise on the other end of the headset.
"Calm down, soldier." Nakahara Chuuya said calmly, "Whoever he is, he is now dealing with the dragon."
Since we are dealing with the dragon, we are not an enemy.
Nakahara Chuuya did not see the true face of the fire psychic back then, but it was obvious that the psychic was on their side at the time, otherwise Chief Mori, who had close contact with that person, would not have said nothing. It is even possible that Chief Mori knew the psychic quite well, otherwise he would have arranged people to investigate the psychic at that time.
Judging from the people who were present at the time, Nakahara Chuuya actually had some suspicion that the man was Ace, but the connection between Ace and Morioga was strange, and he had not seen Ace use his fire ability in all these years, so he still had doubts.
Based on these considerations, Zhongyuan Zhongye said these words which seemed rational and unbiased, but were actually secretly defending.
Nakahara Chuuya, who originally planned to open the dirty door, thought about it and did not open it directly. He planned to go over and take a look at the situation first.
Although based on the current situation, he is basically certain that the bastard Dazai Osamu is definitely in this dragon. After all, the situation of this fire ability user is unknown, and Dazai Osamu will not include him in the plan. Without his own Filth, this dragon will definitely not be defeated. Based on this speculation, the "backup plan" that can stop Filth must be placed inside the dragon's body, right?
The reasoning was crude and simple, but based on his understanding of Dazai Osamu, the probability of this possibility was over 90%.
He jumped directly from the plane.
As they got closer to the dragon, they saw the flames entwined with the dragon. Ace was almost completely buried in the red mane on the dragon's head, with one of his hands reaching out to grab a dragon horn.
The giant dragon rolled violently in the thick mist and dust, and the light waves from its mouth shot out randomly, several times brushing past him.
Nakahara Chuuya: “…”
Well, I don't know why, it looks a bit funny, and my original desire to do it seems to be gone now.
That being said, it was impossible for Chuuya Nakahara to just stand by and watch Ace fight the dragon, so he also went up to fight with Ace.
…
When Chuuya and Ace were fighting the dragon in Nakahara, Moriogai sneaked into the tower where the dragon appeared alone.
Then I saw the devil holding a skull and talking to himself.
...or maybe he was talking to that skull.
Sen Ou was speechless for a moment.
No matter which one it is, it's very strange! I always feel that this picture has a kind of neurotic artistic feeling_(:зゝ∠)_
Perhaps Fyodor did not expect that someone would come at this time, and this person was Mori Owl, whom he had never considered. Even someone as smart as him was surprised for a moment.
But Fyodor's mental strength was also very strong, as was his wisdom. He slowly withdrew the dagger he had just pulled out of Shibuzawa Ryuhiko's body, and when Shibuzawa Ryuhiko fell to the ground and fell into self-doubt, he greeted him nonchalantly: "Good evening, Chief Mori, it's a pleasant surprise to see you here."
Mori Ogai felt that what he wanted to say was not surprise, but Mori Ogai, who was also an old fox, also replied with a smile: "I am also surprised that I met the famous demon here."
"It's not that famous," Fyodor said with a humbly smile, "but Chief Sen came at the right time, so we can watch this play."
Sen Ou felt uneasy for a moment, "What?"
Fyodor took out a small red crystal from his pocket and pressed it against the forehead of the skull in his hand.
That crystal felt so familiar to Sen Ou Wai that if it wasn't so much smaller, he would have thought it was a crystal from a mutant. And Fyodor's action of pressing the crystal against the skull's forehead also made Sen Ou Wai feel uneasy, because the crystals of the separated mutants were right there.
Although he didn't know what Fyodor's purpose was, Mori Ogai had a gut feeling that he couldn't let him succeed.
"Alice!"
A humanoid creature suddenly appeared, holding a huge syringe and immediately rushed towards Fyodor.
But I still didn't catch up.
At this distance and at this time, the difference was too great. His speed was not as fast as Fyodor's, but he still pressed the red crystal.
In an instant, a violent wave of energy erupted and rushed out in all directions. The abnormality value rose sharply, causing the monitoring equipment of the Special Powers Department to emit sharp explosions.
Since he couldn't stop it, Mori Ougai became ruthless and decided to get rid of the demon first.
However, just as Alice's needle was approaching Fyodor, a blade pierced into the side of the gull from behind.
