For a moment, they didn't react in time. By the time the other party charged forward, it was already too late. The other person came before a member of the Underworld Mafia. "Human bomb!" The ability activated. The next moment. "Boom!" A massive explosion erupted. The ground immediately caved in. Ron and the others scattered in all directions. But there was a slight difference. For the others, their strength was simply insufficient to deal with it. For Ron, however, he had the ability to deal with it but pretended to be unable to. "I remember now, this person is Jīn!" "He's from the Republic of Gorteau!" "His ability is human bombs. He can turn living humans into bombs, very cruel." "This is not an opponent we can handle." "Only the Shadow Beast can deal with him!" Ron heard these comments and raised an eyebrow slightly. "Republic of Gorteau?" "Jīn?" These were names Ron had never heard of before. But it seemed like they had some deep hatred with the Underworld Mafia. Jīn coldly surveyed his surroundings. He had been lying low in the Engineering Factory, gathering a lot of information, and was about to find a chance to leave and report the information to his superiors. But unexpectedly, at this crucial moment, the Engineering Factory had discovered his presence. Jīn found it strange. He clearly hadn't shown any flaws. Looking back now, it was still the same. "Either I was discovered early on, and they realized I might be leaving, so they took action before I could escape." "Or, I simply have bad luck and ran into something else." If it was the former, Jīn could accept it. That would mean he was simply outmatched and would admit defeat. But if it was the latter, Jīn couldn't accept it. In Jīn's view, the Underworld Mafia was inherently evil. They had caused widespread harm across the world, persecuting countless people. The Republic of Gorteau was one of those victims. It was a small country that had been targeted by the Underworld Mafia and had since fallen into tragedy. The nation was destroyed, and the people were scattered. At that time, some survivors of the Republic of Gorteau had gathered together. One goal was to take revenge on the Underworld Mafia. The second goal was to restore their nation. Jīn was one of them, working relentlessly toward both goals and willing to sacrifice his life for them. "The possibility of the former is too small." "If that were the case, the Underworld Mafia wouldn't have sent such weak people to chase me." "They're too weak." "Aside from causing some casualties, they're useless." "Why not just send the Shadow Beast directly?" "So, the greater possibility is the latter." Thinking of this, Jīn felt a pang of discomfort. "Why?" "Why does even luck favour the likes of the Underworld Mafia?" "Do evil-doers get divine favour just for doing evil?" "It's not fair!" Realizing that he no longer had a chance to escape, Jīn made a decision. He would go on a rampage inside the Engineering Factory. He would kill as many people as possible. Even if he died, he would drag as many members of the Underworld Mafia down to hell with him as he could. "These people are weak, but under their pursuit, I can't escape from Aorion." "Since you want to target me, then, pay with your lives!" "This is your own choice!" "Die, all of you!" "Die with me!" "I can't live, and neither should you!" Jīn's counterattack made everyone's faces turn grim, and for a moment, they were flustered and couldn't organize an effective response. In an instant, the situation was completely reversed. What Ron could do was to hide his presence and stay as far away from the battlefield as possible, so he wouldn't attract Jīn's attention. Otherwise, he would inevitably expose his abilities. Once his abilities were exposed, Ron's plan to absorb the traits of the Underworld Mafia wouldn't be as easy to complete. Dozens of figures fell at Jīn's hands. Either they exploded. Or they were beaten to death. Everywhere was filled with severed limbs and blood. The air as well was thick with the smell of blood. Unlike Killer Queen's ability, Jīn's explosive power was very similar to real gunpowder explosions. The shockwave was immense. The explosion sound was deafening. Killer Queen's explosions had no sound, and could directly annihilate the explosive materials. "Compared to that, Killer Queen's ability is much better for assassination than Jīn's." "Much more suitable for someone like me, a killer." One figure after another fell. Suddenly. "Whoosh!" Ron turned around and saw two figures rapidly approaching. Both were young men. One was muscular, and the other was smaller, looking very agile. In the blink of an eye, they reached Jīn. Jīn's pupils contracted. "Thud!" A wound appeared on Jīn's waist. "Pah!" The smaller figure appeared behind Jīn and spat out a small chunk of flesh. "The taste is terrible." Someone next to Ron's eyes lit up. "Great!" "The Shadow Beast is here!" "It's Lizard and Wild Dog!" Ron observed the two with narrowed eyes. The figure behind Jīn looked somewhat like Wild Dog, with a sharp nose, long canine teeth, and claws on his hands that resembled dog paws, not human ones. "Looks like an Enchanter-type Nen user." Ron couldn't help but think of a person he saw in the original storyline of the Shadow Beast. The Rabid Dog. The person named Wild Dog had some resemblance to the Rabid Dog. Their abilities also seemed somewhat similar. Both attacked with their teeth. The tall young man in front of Jīn had his hands in his pockets, and his body seemed to have scales. He looked at Jīn with an attitude that clearly showed he didn't think much of him. "Jīn, you cockroach from the Republic of Gorteau, are still alive?" "Since you're alive, why not hide in a gutter?" "Why come to Aorion?" "Do you think you've lived too long?" Before Jīn could speak, Wild Dog spoke first. "You've already been hit by my attack. My teeth are laced with poison, and soon, you won't be able to move." "Give up." Jīn could feel the poison, and his face turned ugly. When the other members of the Underworld Mafia saw that the Shadow Beast had arrived, they all breathed a sigh of relief. "Now that the Shadow Beast is here, everything's fine." "Jīn is dead for sure!"
