teor City.
On the way to District 4.
"S-Sir... should we pick another target? Knox the 'Angry Bear' of District 4 is very strong. He rivals Brandon the 'Fla' of District 1."
Erica reminded nervously.
After she summoned the Elders, so responded out of respect for Brandon (Erica's superior).
But Knox ignored her. And other Elders too.
"I don't have ti for gas. After this, teor City belongs to you and Lilian."
Aizen Ryker said flatly.
Erica: "..."
He's crazy.
Suppressing is one thing. Soloing all of teor City is suicide.
But with a lightning bomb in her brain, she had no choice.
District 4 was larger than District 9.
More trash, more scavengers.
But richer. The thugs on the periter looked well-fed.
"Erica, that bitch, called a Council eting to redraw territories... Hehe, she doesn't know her place!"
"Boss Knox ignored her. Or I'd have gone over to slap her."
"She's Brandon's subordinate. Is this Brandon's idea?"
"Brandon is nothing. Our Boss will rule soon."
Thugs chatted, eating fruit. Luxury for scavengers.
"Hm? Erica? Bitch, why are you here? Is this your new pretty boy? Soft skin."
A sharp-eyed thug spotted them and stood up, rude.
Aizen Ryker ignored the trash.
Though the thug had a Blue trait. Knox's n were stronger than Erica's.
Ryker glared.
Psychokinetic Nen!
Hum~~~
The foul-mouthed thug felt a terrifying force.
Boom.
He was flattened against the wall into at paste!
Trash traits = auto-loot XP.
"Holy shit!! Kill him!!"
"Damn! Call the Boss!"
"Fire! Fire!!"
The thugs panicked, drawing guns.
teor City mafia had firearms. Deadly for normal people and weak Nen users.
"Dodge!!"
Erica shouted, whipping out her steel lash to block bullets.
But she froze, eyes wide in horror.
She stared at Ryker.
The bullets stopped around him, floating in mid-air like a slow-motion movie scene.
Dense swarm of bullets.
Then...
Reflect!
Pfft pfft pfft pfft!
Sound of flesh tearing. Blood sprayed!
The shooters fell, killed by their own bullets.
Ryker's system pinged with trash loot notifications.
In three seconds, over a dozen thugs were dead, riddled with holes.
Erica shivered.
She was glad she surrendered. This ability was eerie.
Definitely a Nen master, but reflecting bullets omni-directionally with perfect control? Beyond her understanding.
"D-Don't co over!!"
The last thug trembled, holding a grenade with the pin pulled.
Fear filled his eyes. No dominance here.
He swore... in all his life in teor City, he never saw such a monster.
Three seconds to kill everyone?
Even holding the grenade gave him no comfort.
Yellow liquid trickled down his pants.
He peed himself...
Aizen Ryker walked up, gently took the grenade, and pulled the pin fully.
Then... held it in his hand.
Psychokinetic Nen Wrap!
Ryker wanted to test his limits.
He was a monster with Red/Black traits. Gold was common for him.
He didn't need technique. Just stat-check.
"AH!?"
The thug collapsed, burying his head in the dirt like an ostrich.
BOOM—
Deafening explosion.
Erica's eyes widened. He's crazy! Holding a grenade?!
Dead. How do I explain this to Knox?
She felt relief and confusion.
But next second.
Her pupils quaked. Jaw dropped.
No explosion of gore.
The grenade exploded in Ryker's hand, but an invisible force compressed the blast.
The red fire expanded slightly, then was crushed back.
Ryker's left hand squeezed.
Crunch.
The grenade turned into a compressed tal ball and fell.
The shockwave only ruffled his white clothes.
"..."
The thug and Erica were dumbfounded.
Maniac!
Monster!
Am I dreaming?
The thug went to et his maker.
Aizen Ryker walked past him. Psychokinetic Nen released.
Like an invisible hamr from the sky.
Splat.
at patty. Blood didn't touch Ryker.
Useful ability! Better control than normal Nen!
Ryker praised himself.
"Who are you? I, Knox, haven't offended you. If you want money, na a price."
A loud voice bood from the tall building.
A hulking figure leaped out, landing like a tank.
Na: Knox (District 4 Elder)
Traits: [Enhancent Talent] (Gold), [Berserk] (Purple), [Beastification] (Purple), [Man-Eater] (Purple), [High Libido] (Purple)...
"Nice."
Aizen Ryker smiled, eyes lighting up.
A 3-ter tall bear-man with scars and one eye. Imposing.
Erica paled. Knox smiled unexpectedly.
"How much?"
Knox narrowed his eye at the dead bodies and the crushed grenade.
Difficult opponent.
If money could solve it, avoid conflict.
"Money? I don't need it. One last chance. Obey Erica. teor City shouldn't be divided anymore."
Aizen Ryker said calmly.
"Hm? HAHAHA! HAHAHAHA! Are you joking? I fought for my turf with blood! Give it to you? You think you can eat ?"
Knox laughed in anger, muscles trembling.
He was top-tier among Elders. Far stronger than Erica.
Ryker was a squishy mage. Easy kill!
"Hurry up. Show your strength. Make interested."
Aizen Ryker smiled.
"Little bastard... since you want to die, I'll help you."
Knox roared. His body expanded visibly.
From 3 ters to nearly 2 stories high!
Fur sprouted. Bear-like appearance.
Beastification!
Berserk!
Enhancent · Gold!
A true tank. A city destroyer.
Thud thud thud~~
The ground shook with every step.
Erica turned pale. Even Brandon avoided Berserk Knox.
"Sir! His Berserk has a ti limit! Dodge first, kill him later!" She warned.
Creak crack.
Concrete shattered.
Knox ripped out a tal utility pole as thick as a person!
Snort snort!
Breathing hot steam, he swung the pole at Ryker's head!
"DIE—"
Knox roared.
BOOM—
Loud impact.
The pole hit Ryker's head... but stopped.
An invisible hand held it in place!
Erica watched the alloy pole twist visibly.
"Nice strength... but still... too weak."
Ryker shook his head in disappointnt.
Knox was strong. Stronger than Hisoka in raw power.
But against Ryker? Useless.
[Psychokinetic Nen] was only Purple, but Ryker's base stats were 10,000. Knox was 100.
Multipliers didn't matter when the base gap was this huge.
"If this is all, ga over."
Ryker sighed.
teor City was a trash heap. The true strong ones (Troupe) left.
Those remaining were losers eliminated by the era.
Psychokinetic Nen!
Massive force surged.
Knox's face changed. He couldn't move the pole.
It was welded in air. His strength boosted 5x, yet the guy didn't even move his hand.
Knox turned red, muscles trembling at the limit.
"Let go!"
Aizen Ryker smiled.
More power surged. Knox lost his grip, hands tearing.
The 20-ter pole floated up.
Then...
Held by an invisible hand like a giant hamr, it smashed down on Knox's head.
