Sweat beaded on Uvogin brow. He felt paralyzed. He collapsed to the ground. Poisoned? When? That kid didn't hurt me! Uvogin looked at his wounds, inflicted by Rabid Dog. 'His teeth were poisoned. Damn it, just at this time...'
Uvogin suddenly collapsed. Loki understood; the poison from Rabid Dog's attack had finally taken effect. This was convenient; he didn't need to fight. He'd also tested his Nen against Uvogin.
Against a top Enhancement-type like Uvogin, his Nen intensity was about 50-60%. Against average Enhancement types, it would need improvement, to around 80%. Against non-Enhancement types, he'd have the advantage.
Loki looked at Kurapika, who was staring blankly.
"Kurapika, capture him!"
Kurapika reacted after Loki called him twice. Seeing Uvogin motionless and pale, he didn't understand why Uvogin had stopped moving. But he still used his chains to bind Uvogin.
"Let's retreat!"
Uvogin glared at Loki. "Capturing me is useless. Kill me! Your ability is strong; I was careless. But taking me hostage is completely..."
Bang! Kurapika punched Uvogin's neck, knocking him unconscious.
"Retreat! I'll hold them off. It'll be troublesome if they chase us."
Kurapika looked at Loki, then nodded. He took the unconscious Uvogin and retreated towards Baise and the others.
Baise and the others were still shocked. First, Uvogin's full-power attack was terrifying. Then, before they could escape, Loki suppressed Uvogin with speed. Everyone thought Loki would die in the final clash, but he had terrifying Nen, blocking Uvogin's attack with more than double the Nen intensity.
Now, he'd used flames. Loki's power was terrifying. They were stunned until Kurapika appeared.
"You actually succeeded," Basho said.
"Where's Loki?"
"We're retreating. Loki's holding them off. He can escape easily," Kurapika said, throwing Uvogin into the car and getting into the driver's seat. "Go!"
They sped away. Baise looked out the back window until they were far away. Everyone was silent, remembering Loki's flames. His dancing form in the flames was unforgettable.
With Uvogin gone, Loki turned to Rabid Dog and Leech.
Loki smiled. "Sorry for killing your companion, but..."
"I need to kill you two. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome if you tell them I killed your companion."
Rabid Dog thought he'd be spared, but Loki's words chilled him.
"Don't kill me! I won't talk!" Rabid Dog said, raising his hands.
Boom! Loki appeared before Leech, Rabid Dog's terrified face visible as his body fell to the ground. Blood spurted from a shallow wound in his throat.
Leech was stunned, seeing Rabid Dog's lifeless body. He knelt before Loki. "Please don't kill me! I'll…"
Loki released a flame from his palm, engulfing Leech.
"Hot! No! Don't…" Leech rolled on the ground, soon motionless. The flames consumed him, even after death.
Loki watched the flames consume Leech's body, leaving only charred remains. He stretched. "Now, let's see if I can handle multiple Troupe members."
He estimated that with his flames and Zenki and Goki, he could handle four or five Troupe members. But this was just a guess.
As Loki stretched, boom boom boom! several figures fell from the sky, creating a dust cloud. Loki smiled, turning to face them.
"You're fast."
The dust cleared, revealing Nobunaga, Feitan, and Machi.
Loki looked at the height of the "Enjomo". To jump over it and avoid the heat, they'd need to be nearly a hundred meters high. They couldn't have jumped that high; someone with immense strength must have thrown them.
Franklin! That big guy has great strength! Loki thought. He was right; Franklin had thrown them, and they'd jumped.
Nobunaga looked around; two Shadow Beasts were down, one burned to ashes. He frowned, his gaze cold as he turned to Loki.
"Kid, where's Uvogin?"
Feitan and Machi flanked Loki.
Nobunaga, Feitan, and Machi are strong. Let's see if they can handle me, Loki thought.
Seeing Loki silent, Nobunaga stepped forward, killing intent evident. "Kid, I'm asking you a question!"
"Where's Uvogin?"
A chilling aura erupted from Nobunaga. A cold wind blew towards Loki. Loki smiled. Nobunaga's gaze sharpened.
"Die!" Nobunaga bent down, preparing to draw his sword. His Nen erupted the moment his hand touched the hilt.
Bang! Nobunaga stepped forward.
