Li Qing decisively abandoned his companions and left with the only Dongfang Zhan who barely retained his combat strength.

Diablo subconsciously pursued after realizing the existence of the arrow.

At the same time, his brain was also thinking at an incredible speed between the lightning and flint:

Li Qing's escape speed was very fast, and he didn't react for a while just now, so that his movements slowed down by half a beat.

And Dongfang's family was less than a hundred meters away, even if he let the Crimson King move at high speed with his body regardless of his physical load, I am afraid he would not be able to stop him from getting the arrow before himself.

So, can you use the power of the Ouroboros to stop Li Qing directly in the past?

This thought made Diablo faintly moved.

But he soon found that this seemed a little unworkable:

First of all, since Li Qing will choose to go back and get the arrow, it shows that in his cognition:

The arrows have been kept in the Oriental House and have not been lost.

At least until they had just left the Oriental House.

This has become an established fact and cannot be changed.

And the only loophole that Diablo can find is the short gap of "the state of the arrow cannot be determined" that began after Li Qing and others left Dongfang House en masse not long ago.

During this time, everyone didn't know if the arrow was still in the Dongfang family.

Diablo could theoretically indeed go back in time and take advantage of this short gap to steal arrows from the East.

But the problem is that going back in time requires an "anchor", and this "anchor" is the time that Diablo used to slash with the Crimson King in the past.

Unfortunately...

For a whole day today, even in the battle that just took place, Diablo did not use the time cut.

Without an anchor, it is impossible for him to go back to the time he wants to go back to.

The idea of going back in time and stealing arrows has become almost impossible.

So, is it possible to hinder Li Qing's behavior by arranging other means in the past?

Hire killers to ambush here in advance?

Or set a time bomb in the Oriental house in advance?

These ideas are true, but in a foreign land where I am not familiar with my life, it costs a lot of money to do it.

Diablo had exhausted the only 500 million yen he had left on him the last time he hired the yakuza to plant a bomb, and he was so poor that he had to cut money at convenience stores.

Maybe he could go back to an earlier time, back to when he was the boss of the organization.

At that time, he could indeed use his identity as a boss to mobilize the organization's funds, and he could also use the small treasury account he had hidden in the past.

But the Passion organization is extremely powerful, and Diablo is a very cautious boss.

Diablo wanted to steal money from Diablo, and Diablo couldn't possibly not find out.

Diablo's memory did not include the theft of his money.

If he does something that conflicts with past memories, it triggers the terrible "time paradox".

All in all, traveling through time is always a dangerous thing.

Diablo walks on thin ice every time he crosses, trying not to appear in front of people, trying to avoid unnecessary impact on the past.

After all, it is difficult for him to distinguish between what he is doing is actually "part of the time loop" or a "time paradox" that conflicts with the past.

"Damn... It seems that the stupidest way can only be used to chase it. ”

Diablo was in a bad mood.

He had forgotten that there were arrows in the world that were beyond his control.

Seeing that Li Qing had already carried the battle and ran back to Dongfang's house quickly.

Diablo had no choice but to give up all his strength to catch up:

"Crimson King, full speed ahead!"

He directly asked the Crimson King to hold his whole person in his arms, and then burst into the sky at full speed.

This way of moving can make the Crimson King's movement speed get rid of the drag of the main body to the greatest extent, so that Diablo can keep up with Li Qing as soon as possible.

However, the only drawback is that this ultra-high-speed movement method causes a huge acceleration load on the main body.

That terrible acceleration can even make the human body instantly crack the five internal organs, and the neck may be thrown off directly if the posture is not right.

Even Jotaro, who is physically strong and amazing, usually doesn't dare to play this kind of operation more.

Otherwise, it is possible that the enemy will not catch up, and he will hang up first.

But Diablo can't do that much now.

Anyway, even if he is injured, he can use the power of the Ouroboros to recover in 1 second, so it is not too dangerous to chase at full speed in this way.

In this way, Diablo soon followed Li Qing and rushed into Dongfang's house.

Even counting the hesitation and hesitation that he hadn't reacted to before, he was only a few seconds behind Li Qing's kung fu.

However, when Diablo entered the gate of Dongfang's house in a menacing manner, he didn't see Li Qing who had just escaped after entering the door.

All I saw was a woman with a blank face.

She is Dongfang Pengzi, Dongfang's mother.

"Hey, hey... Who are you?! ”

Dongfang Pengzi subconsciously stood in front of Diablo.

She asked blankly but vigilantly:

"What are you doing at my house!

"What the hell just happened?"

For her, what just happened was a loud explosion outside, followed by a sudden slam open to her door.

A phantom that was so fast that it was almost impossible to see rushed all the way to the second floor.

Dongfang Pengzi could only vaguely distinguish the outline of the phantom, as if it was Li Qing, who was a guest at his house, and his son Dongfang Zhansuke.

She was in a state of panic and confusion, and before she could breathe, Diablo chased after her murderously.

"Oh... You're supposed to be the cow dung-headed mother, right? ”

A coldness suddenly welled up in Diablo's eyes.

"Dongfang Suke!"

"Li Qing!"

The next moment, Diablo raised his head and shouted coldly upstairs:

"Don't be stupid, hand over that arrow in your hand—"

"Otherwise, I'll kill this old woman downstairs right now!"

"Old Woman ???" Dongfang Pengzi looked unhappy and wanted to say something.

But the Crimson King's invisible hand grabbed her shoulder for a moment, forcing her to let out a terrible scream.

The voice went straight up to the second floor, but there was silence on the second floor.

"I'm only counting three!"

Diablo didn't use any persuasion, but said murderously:

"If you can't see that arrow in three seconds, your mother will be gone!"

"One..."

"Two..."

The voice of the count was cold and firm, and Diablo did not panic.

He knew it would work—

Because he had already used the "epitaph" to peek into the future within ten seconds before he started the chase.

"Epitaph" used to be his life-saving skill at the bottom of the box.

Because of the long cooldown time, he was reluctant to use it until it was a moment.

But now this problem has been completely solved:

Although "epitaphs" cannot be used in the "past", they can still be used in the "present".

Diablo can go back to the past at any time to rest and recover, and the future is completely under his control.

And it was precisely because he saw in the "Epitaph" that the result was a smooth ten-second future, that he had been so decisive in this stupid way to catch up before.

Sure enough, as Diablo had predicted...

"Wait!"

Dongfang Zhansuke's weak and excited voice sounded in the second second:

"I'll give you the arrows, and you let my mom go!"

"Come down with the arrows!" Diablo walked cautiously towards the staircase with Dongfang Tomoko in his arms.

Slow, heavy footsteps could be heard upstairs.

Dongfang helped down the stairs with difficulty, still holding an arrow that was already red with blood.

"Help!" It was only then that Dongfang Tomoko noticed the terrible injuries on her son's body.

She struggled to break free and rush to her side, but was overpowered by the Crimson King.

"Did you really take the arrow down for me?"

"What about Li Qing..."

"Why didn't he show up?"

Seeing the soft appearance of the battle assistant, Diablo's vigilance did not decrease but increased.

After all, Li Qing, who was in great trouble in his heart, never showed up, and he always had an extremely bad premonition.

"Let's look at the future again..."

The ten seconds that the "Epitaph" had just predicted were over at this point, and he couldn't see what was going on.

Therefore, Diablo immediately used the "Ouroboros", returning to the past after 1 second of blurring, and returning to its original place in an instant.

In this way, the cooldown time is already good early.

"Epitaph!"

Within ten seconds, the future immediately appeared before Diablo's eyes:

In the first second, Diablo walked up the stairs.

In the second 2, under the careful protection of the Crimson King, Diablo took the arrow from the Eastern Guard's assistant.

Dongfang Yusuke did not resist at all, and he did not have the strength to resist.

In the 3rd and 4th seconds, Dongfang Zhansuke sat down on the stairs in a dejected manner, unable to pose any threat at all.

Diablo ignored the unthreatening Dongfang Suke, clutching the blood-stained arrow tightly as he hurried to continue his climb to the second floor.

He is looking for the "missing" Li Qing and completely eradicating the big trouble in his heart.

In the 5th and 6th seconds, Diablo reached the second floor.

He suddenly noticed a large patch of blood bubbling from the floor on the second floor.

Follow the bloodstain and look into the room...

Diablo's face was filled with shock.

7th, 8th, 9th, 10th seconds.

Diablo walked into the room in shock, stunned and stunned.

"That's how it could be..."

Diablo didn't suffer any harm the whole time.

He was perfectly safe for the next ten seconds, and what he saw was not only harmless to him, but even a surprise.

It's just that the scene is very weird and shocking.

Diablo couldn't have imagined that he would see such a picture.

"Let's go upstairs and take a closer look."

After a short period of reflection, Diablo finally decided to go on the way he saw the future.

He took the arrow from the Dongfang Guard's assistant according to the absolutely safe future he saw, and walked all the way up to the second floor, stepping into the room covered in blood.

It's the same as seen in the epitaph precognition...

On the floor of the room, lying was Li Qing's corpse.

A corpse without a head.
