Chapter 750 Angel Wings
On the vast snow-covered ground, Liang Yue and Nobunaga separated once more.
After a near-death struggle, both decided to adjust their conditions before continuing their battle.
However, both had already sustained significant injuries.
Liang Yue's right arm was pierced through, blood dripping steadily from the wound.
anwhile, Nobunaga's left arm had been completely severed!
At first glance, Liang Yue seed to have the upper hand—but appearances were deceiving.
Though Nobunaga lost his left arm, his right hand could still wield his blade.
Losing an arm would disrupt his balance, however, greatly reducing his speed in subsequent attacks.
Liang Yue's right arm, pierced straight through the bone, hung limp at her side.
She had no choice but to switch to her left hand.
Though skilled with dual blades and capable of fighting effectively with her left, it still couldn't match her dominant right.
In battles between martial masters, life and death often hinged on a single strike.
Their duel was far deadlier than the clash between Baili Changqing and Daiku Kai Enzu.
——
Across the battlefield, fierce combat raged everywhere.
Beyond the three main battles involving Zhang Yi, the fighting grew even more chaotic.
The Celestial Hound Squad, led by Wu Di and Ye He, was tasked with handling the nurous Tianlong Pirate Crew mbers and several Moon of Corrosion fighters.
Yang Xinxin, mounted atop Hua Hua, also fought within this skirmish.
Kanute's Western Squadron had once possessed formidable combat strength, with Kanute himself rivaling a deputy captain of the investigation team.
However, after taking a direct hit from Zhang Yi's Void Sphere, he sustained severe injuries.
Now, leading his subordinates against the Celestial Hound Squad, he could no longer fight at full capacity.
Soon, the ordinary grunts were mostly cleared out.
Only the empowered remained!
The other empowered within the pirate crew were no match for the well-trained and heavily ard Celestial Hound Squad.
But Kanute himself was an entirely different beast.
A rare marine-type beastman, his transford state took the form of a colossal blue shark—fifteen ters long and weighing over a hundred tons, making him a living weapon of mass destruction!
Coupled with his ability to move freely through any dium, he could attack with terrifying agility even across snowy terrain.
Even Celestial Hound Squad mbers were sent flying by his assaults.
By his side fought two lieutenants:
First Mate Quito Sang, a unique-type empowered whose ability allowed him to transform his body into unbreakable chains.
Second Mate Shan Chai, a beastman-type empowered with electric eel traits, capable of swimming through ice and discharging high-voltage currents.
Together with Kanute, they clashed head-on against the Celestial Hound Squad.
Also fighting alongside them were Moon of Corrosion mbers Sakuraba Yoshimitsu and Kurosawa Aga.
The battle between the top-tier fighters was not sothing they could interfere with—daring to intervene would an instant annihilation.
Hundreds of other pirates lingered at the edges, but their impact on the battlefield was minimal.
On the Celestial Hound Squad's side, Wu Di and Ye He led the frontline suppression.
Against Kanute—a monstrous foe with near-impenetrable offense and defense—their attacks proved largely ineffective.
"Focus fire on his weak points! Aim for the gills! Target the gills!" Wu Di shouted, summoning massive floating cannons in his hands before unleashing a devastating beam toward Kanute.
The searing light tore through the air—only for Kanute to effortlessly dive beneath the snow, evading the blast.
Seconds later, a gaping maw erupted from beneath Wu Di's feet, threatening to swallow him whole!
Wu Di's blood ran cold as he stared into that abyss of teeth.
Luckily, Xue Miao activated his Godspeed Technique and yanked him to safety at the last mont.
As he retreated, Xue Miao tossed two high-explosive grenades straight into the shark's mouth.
Kanute snapped his jaws shut—then let out a muffled *thump* from his stomach.
"*Burp!*"
A puff of black smoke escaped his mouth as his massive eyes glead with mocking amusent.
The attack had barely tickled him.
"Hunting... begins now!"
He subrged into the earth, his towering dorsal fin protruding above the snow like a blade.
The ground rippled like water beneath him.
Every person standing atop it had beco potential prey.
Just the sight of that fin alone was enough to paralyze n with dread.
Wu Di, still shaken from his near-death experience, broke into cold sweat.
Had Kanute not been grievously wounded earlier by Zhang Yi, devouring them would've been as easy as eating cupcakes.
The Tianlong Pirate Crew's captain was no ordinary foe.
But now... how were they supposed to defeat him?
Perched atop a high vantage point, Hua Hua watched the battlefield unfold with keen amber eyes.
From within its thick fur peeked Yang Xinxin's delicate, doll-like face.
Her gaze drifted skyward, where Zhang Yi and Phoenixin Ren's dazzling battle raged.
She couldn't intervene in that clash—not yet.
For now, the greatest threat was Kanute in his monstrous shark form.
Yang Xinxin gently stroked Hua Hua's head.
"Watch closely. morize his movents."
*"Mrrow."*
Hua Hua's pupils dilated as it stared downward.
Such a big fish!
Its whiskers twitched with feline instinct—though this particular fish was slightly oversized.
Behind Yang Xinxin, a six-winged angel slowly materialized.
Its face bore a bizarre expression—simultaneously laughing and weeping, as if embodying every human emotion at once.
Even stranger were its wings, each pair a different color:
One pair crimson as blood.
One pair azure as the sea.
One pair black as ink.
"Find him. Pinpoint his location." Yang Xinxin murmured.
The angel lifted a longbow in its left hand while plucking a blue feather from its wing with the right.
The feather elongated into a sleek arrow, its fletching still retaining delicate plumage.
Monts later, Kanute erupted from the earth, jaws wide—this ti aiming straight for Lu Yinghao!
Lu Yinghao paled. Even with adrenaline surging through his veins, he couldn't outpace Kanute's lunge.
*"CHOMP!"*
Kanute swallowed him whole.
Yang Xinxin's eyes sharpened.
Her angel drew its bowstring taut—then released the blue-feathered arrow straight at Kanute's bulk!
*"THUNK!"*
The arrow embedded itself shallowly into Kanute's scales, failing to pierce through his thick hide.
Kanute spared Yang Xinxin a dismissive glance before ignoring her entirely.
Unless she possessed firepower rivaling a deputy captain's, penetrating his defenses was impossible.
If he couldn't withstand Zhang Yi's Void Sphere, did they really think the rest of the Celestial Hound Squad stood a chance?
Just as Kanute prepared to mock his foes, his expression suddenly twisted.
He lurched—then violently vomited Lu Yinghao back out!
Drenched in sli, Lu Yinghao landed awkwardly but quickly regained his footing, flashing a smug grin at the giant shark.
"Try eating again, idiot. I'm *literally* poison."
