Riverside, outside an abandoned factory.

Higashinohara looked up at the black haze sky, stretched out his hand, and the raindrops slipped down like a curtain from the eaves of the warehouse overhead, and were blown away by the wind and shattered in the palm of his hand.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that in the era in which he lived, Higashinohara's impression of the large factory area on the other side of Mingsha Island at the mouth of the river and sea was stuck in the potholed road under the gray sky, the rumbling noise in the factory, the black smoke column everywhere, and the brick and gravel fragments and various parts of the factory were scattered on the road.

At that moment

Just like this at this moment.

Speaking of which, I don't know how many years later, under the baptism of incomparably long years, the scene around the land under our feet should be the most "intact" place in the vast river and sea.

I thought about these things in my heart

Higashinohara took out the crisp green apple he had just given him from his pocket, and it exuded an alluring luster in his palm, and he didn't know how long it had been since he picked it, but it was still freshly picked.

"Eat me - eat me - eat me!"

The whispering sound in my head sounded again, full of an unspeakable temptation.

Higashinohara closed his eyes and listened carefully this time, finally making sure that this was not some hallucination of his own.

Angel fruit?

Slowly opening his eyes, Higashinohara's face showed a thoughtful expression.

"Huh? Haven't you eaten it yet? ”

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in Higashinohara's ears, and when he turned his head, he found Teresa wearing a navy blue peacock feather mask walking slowly.

At this moment, her steps are light, every step is like stepping on a soft cloud, even through a layer of masks, Higashinohara can feel the pleasure emanating from the inside out of her body, as if every cell in her body is as wanton as a spring shoot.

She said hello to Higashinohara, but perhaps even she didn't notice it was that

From the moment she walked over, her eyes were firmly fixed on the crisp and smooth green apple in Higashinohara's hand, and she licked her lips unconsciously.

She is. Already eaten?

What a woman with a big heart!

Higashinohara felt some emotion in his heart.

In fact, he is full of men and does not know that hungry men are hungry, and underestimates the thirst of ordinary people for dual talents and higher-level innate abilities.

Especially like Teresa, who has awakened the [Super God Speed] of the talent sequence 68, which is very low in the sequence of green excellent abilities, and now she has reached the seventh order through countless years of unremitting efforts, but it is almost the pinnacle that she can reach in this life.

However, those who had reached the seventh order of absolute ability had seen the scenery of the realm, looked up and saw the higher peaks above the mist, who could be willing to stop here like this?

Not to mention that Kimura Baituo didn't have too many side effects in the past when they gave them the ability fruits, even if there were big side effects, when they really reached that point, many people with absolute abilities who stopped at the beginning of the seventh order would choose to bet on their lives.

After this eerie silence, Teresa suddenly stiffened slightly, and finally noticed her own abnormality.

She seemed to take her eyes off Higashinohara's hand with great difficulty, and let out a dry laugh.

"Have you all eaten?" Higashinohara asked rhetorically.

Teresa nodded and said, "I ate it with Ellenda and the woman, and I think the others are similar, what about the White Yasha-kun?" ”

"I'm about to eat." Higashinohara nodded, then suddenly asked again, "How do you feel?" ”

Teresa was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I've seen the photos of the 'new fruit' on the black market, and Team Leader Kimura won't lie to us, is Hakuyasha-kun worried?" What an overly cautious man, it feels great, it's good."

Teresa reverted to her smiling and moaning appearance when she said this, and her tone was a little provocative.

Higashinohara was a little unmoved, nodded silently, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the people scattered in the warehouse.

Although the mental state is obviously a little excited, it is true that there are no serious sequelae now.

Teresa was a little bored when she saw this, she wanted to turn around and leave, but after a long time, her eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the crisp and round fruit in Higashinohara's hand.

But at some point in the next moment, the sound of wind and rain outside the abandoned factory seemed to stop strangely.

Although Higashinohara did not turn his head,

Out of the corner of his eye, he clearly caught a glimpse of the sharp black shadow hidden under the gray sky.

Although everyone had already received the warning of the attack of the evil demons, it still seemed very sudden at this moment.

I have to say that the first person who can find the factory warehouse here must be a demon who is good at speed, and his strength is also comparable to the absolute ability of the seventh order.

If it were someone else's words, the mind would be completely attracted by the fruit of power in his hand, and he might be immediately hit hard.

But Higashinohara is different.

Although the tempting "eat me" sounded in his mind from time to time, it was tempting and involuntarily, but Higashinohara had already regarded it as a "dog barking".

Almost as soon as the black shadow appeared, Higashinohara raised the fast knife of the third reconnaissance group in his hand and slashed at the black shadow that broke through the air like an eagle falcon with a backhand.

Whew!

Unexpectedly, Higashinohara's knife did not have a sharp sound of cutting flesh, but only a sound of tearing and tattered gauze came from his ears.

The battle between the two was completely in a flash of light.

In the next moment, the wind and rain outside the warehouse seemed to return to normal all of a sudden, and it returned from the sky to the ground again.

Bang!

Something fell into a puddle of water on the ground along with the raindrops, making a splash of water that was a foot high.

Higashinohara's eyes were filled with coldness, and he slowly turned his head, staring at the thin figure outside with a very indifferent gaze, his clothes were ragged, and the clothes on his chest were still a huge gap that had just been torn, but the whole person was staring at Higashinohara like a jackal.

No. To be precise, it was the crisp green apple in Higashinohara's hand that had a fatal attraction to him like a sweet and savory cake.

At this time, in the rain outside the warehouse, the whites of the eyes of the thin and slender alien demon had some terrifying protrusions in his eyes without black, and his body suddenly fell slightly, and his muscles tightened unconsciously, like a giant crossbow arrow with a tight bowstring, accumulating the strength in his body.

He or it said,

Very eager!

So it can't stand any waiting.

It was at this time that Teresa, who was also staring at the round green apple in Higashinohara's hand, reacted.

She couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and quickly pressed the earphone next to her ear to sound a quick alarm in the communication voice.

Suddenly, people scattered in other corners of the abandoned factory warehouse responded to the opportunity.

But just as Teresa sounded the alarm, a voice suddenly sounded inexplicably in her ears.

"Want? That's good for you. ”

The moment you raise your head,

Teresa's eyes couldn't help but shrink slightly, and she almost subconsciously shouted "don't".

At this moment, she seemed to see some precious and peerless delicacies being abandoned, and a feeling of anger welled up in her heart for no reason.

But it was too late.

Like a dog bone or a frisbee, Higashinohara casually threw the crisp and smooth fruit into the rain outside the warehouse, sliding a parabola in the air.

In an instant, the muscles of the rickety demon who were full of strength instantly loosened like a taut bowstring!

The unparalleled speed suddenly exploded, like a lightning bolt across the rain curtain, and pounced on the ability fruit thrown out by Higashinohara.

Time seems to have passed only a moment.

In the next second, the ecumenical alien demon who flew out caught the fruit thrown by Higashinohara in the air, and the lifeless eyeballs that only had a large area of whites of the eyes but could not see the black bulks suddenly protruded.

At this moment, even Teresa saw the greed and desire in the other party's eyes, and her hands hurriedly shoved the fruit into a blackened rotten tooth.

However, without warning, Teresa only felt that a sharp knife light that cut across the rain curtain flashed in front of her like a white python!

The terrifying wind pressure behind the sword light instantly shattered countless long rain curtains between heaven and earth into countless large and small beads that flew and shattered like jade plates!

The sword light like a waterfall fell, and before the crumpty alien demon flying in mid-air could react, the head of the cloak and the incomparably tempting apple that he stuffed into his mouth burst into seven or eight petals, blooming like a flower in the rain!

Bang!

The cracked skull and the fruit of ability smashed to the ground, mixed together like a lump of mud, and let the rain fall from the sky.

Seeing this, Teresa suddenly felt like a mourner, her eyes stared at the mud-like fruit of ability, and the anger in her heart just now disappeared, but an indescribable melancholy surged up.

[High concentrations of unknown particles have been detected, do you want to confirm the collection?] 】

【Confirm Collection】

[Unknown Particle Collection Completed]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Blue Ability Fragment [Lightning Speed]]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Blue Ability Fragment [Strange Walk]]

Double yolk eggs?

Hearing the prompt in his mind that two consecutive ability collections had been completed, Higashinohara's heart couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Immediately, he looked at the fruit of ability on the ground mixed with the shattered skull, and a thoughtful look slowly appeared on his face.

He only killed one alien.

So excluding the absurd speculation of "double yolk eggs", there may be only one left.

That is, Higashinohara has collected another ability, which is likely to come from the broken ability fruit.

Wait a minute!

Higashinohara suddenly realized a possibility.

Since the Ability Fruit is the same as the Alien Demon, when destroyed, it will leave a large number of unknown particles in the air that can be detected by the [Sin Handbook].

Does that mean that,

Both have the same "source".

This sudden thought suddenly made Higashinohara raise his eyebrows.

You must know that the fruits of ability are not only those in the alley that Kimura Baituo took out today.

Many years ago, the Fruit of Ability Research Institute appeared in New Tokyo, and even spread to the branches of powerful countries such as the United States of Tagos and the San Maro Empire in their important cities.

If these two really come from the same source, then could it be that the world in which he lives has been secretly researched by those abilities and fruit institutes.

Is it a demon?

But how did they come into contact with the demons?

[Do you confirm the decomposition of all of them?] 】

【Confirmation】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining 1 Source Power Point]

[Current Source Points: 2.1]

While thinking about these things in Higashinohara's mind, he quickly dismantled all the two ability fragments, and then converted them into 210 proficiency points, adding all of them to the Nine Eyes Six Paths, which are currently only at the intermediate level (50/1000). The second course. Shura Dao proficiency.

A bland brilliance flashed, and Higashinohara said second. The proficiency of the Shura Dao instantly increased to (260/1000), and the perception of how to use this ability instantly increased a little more.

At this time, Higashinohara is also looking forward to the second way more and more. When the proficiency of the Shura Dao has reached the advanced level, when the evil aura of the Shura is wrapped around his body.

Teresa, who came back to her senses on the side, almost subconsciously rushed into the rain, stared down at the fruit mud on the ground and the skull in a daze, her heart ached and she almost couldn't breathe, turned her head to stare at Higashinohara, breathed a little quickly and said:

"You've just been. How can you? ”

Higashinohara was putting the quick knife in his hand into the rain to wash it, the blood in the bodies of these aliens had already dried up, hardened and turned black, and there was no blood on the blade, the rain washed away the blue slime and fruit stains on the blade.

Immediately, he gently swung his knife and put it into the sheath before turning his head to look at Teresa, smiled silently and said casually:

"If he wants it, give it to him."

Teresa was suddenly choked by Higashinohara's words and this indifferent attitude, and subconsciously wanted to say, "I want you to give it to me too."

But he couldn't say this in his throat, and in the end, he could only sigh and say helplessly, "It's a pity that I wasted such a good ability."

"It's not a waste." Higashinohara subconsciously answered.

"Huh?" Teresa couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Oh," Higashinohara smiled and explained, "I mean the situation was critical just now, and if you don't tempt the enemy like that, I'm afraid you won't have a good chance of killing him." ”

Teresa nodded thoughtfully.

From this point of view, Higashinohara is extremely decisive in both decision-making and action, and he is indeed a man with a calm heart in a "critical situation".

But is the situation critical?

Teresa remembered the scene just now, and her heart couldn't help but feel weird.

That situation may be considered "critical" to her, but for the man in front of her who wears a mask of a yaksha with white fangs

No matter how you look at it, you can't call it that critical, right?

Higashinohara didn't explain much.

His eyes froze slightly, and he turned his head to look at the hazy rain curtain outside the abandoned factory warehouse.

In the Nine Eyes and Six Paths. With the blessing of the first glance, the perception was magnified to the limit, and the tilt and tremor in the wind as each drop of rain fell clearly into his mind.

The next moment, Higashinohara suddenly opened his mouth and said softly in the communication,

"Here they are."

Almost at the moment when Higashinohara's words fell, countless dense black shadows appeared one after another in the heavy rain under the black haze sky dome, and the people around the warehouse who had just eaten the fruit of their abilities couldn't help but shrink their pupils.

At this time, if anyone could look down on the abandoned riverside factory below from the sky from the perspective of God, I am afraid that they will be shocked to find countless black spots covering this desolate land like ant colonies.

All that remains is the "blank" in the middle that is about to be filled.

The plot is almost sorted out, and the state of the night has improved, and it will speed up in the next two days!

Explosion is more explosive!!
