That person, dressed in a black ninja outfit, with his head wrapped in black cloth, exuded a sense of mystery.
But...
"A monkey?" Renedia was stunned.
The person in front of her wasn't even as tall as she was, with short arms and legs, a bulbous nose, small eyes, and thick lips, looking like a little black monkey at first glance.
"It's a human!"
The ninja's temple pulsed with a vein, and he shouted, "I am Matoro, the intelligence captain of the Anu Kingdom! I am here under the King's orders to kill you all!"
"A talking monkey!"
Renedia aimed the hammer and twisted the handle, "Get lost, you vermin!"
Rat-tat-tat!
Lead bullets sprayed out from the three barrels, and the short person who looked like a monkey quickly flashed and leaped into the air, dodging the attack.
His speed was incredibly fast, and his jumping ability was astounding.
While jumping in the air, Matoro threw several daggers directly at Renedia. However, as soon as they got close to her, the energy in the daggers was counteracted, sparking electricity as they fell to the ground.
"You're a pretty fast monkey!"
Renedia lifted the long hammer and continued to fire lead bullets. The agile figure dodged them in the air. Just as his figure jumped up, it quickly descended when Renedia was about to aim again, and suddenly he disappeared.
Missing the target left Renedia stunned.
"Heh heh heh, you can't find me..."
The voice echoed from the left side of the hallway ahead, and Renedia fired several bullets in that direction.
Still, she hit nothing.
"You're not the only Ability User. I'm an Ability User too."
The voice got closer, and Renedia fired again, aiming at the source of the voice.
"I ate the 'False False' fruit, becoming a Disguiser. I can disguise myself with anything, achieving an invisible effect, even disguising my breath. You can't find me, and sooner or later I'll break your ability."
The voice appeared beside Renedia, causing her to instinctively swing the Mechanical Hammer.
Bam!!
The Mechanical Hammer, powered with energy, smashed a hole in the wall. At that moment, a shadow appeared on Renedia's other side, approaching her forehead, but as it touched her noggin, the shadow turned into a dagger form. The counteractive force made the dagger powerless, pausing there, but it still made contact with the skin, leaving a blood spot at the temple.
"Damn you!"
Renedia was so angry a dark line appeared on her eyelid, swinging the Mechanical Hammer again, but as she moved, the dagger naturally fell, and the one holding it had long disappeared, leaving her hitting air.
"Come catch me then, catch me and I'll let you... Heh heh heh, too bad you're just a little brat, you'll never catch me. Aren't you eager to hit me? But you can't hit me." Matoro's voice echoed in the air, sounded from various places, making it hard for Renedia to locate him.
The tone was full of mockery.
In the absence of mutual restraint among Ability Users, the comparison was naturally about stamina. His speed was fast, and the little brat's attack couldn't hit him, nor could she discover him.
But he couldn't do anything to the brat either. Her ability was troublesome, countering his attacks.
However, his attacks were mostly disguised, not costing much, and he, Matoro, was an adult. In terms of stamina, he obviously surpassed the kid.
In such a situation, of course, he should make her exhaust her stamina to the fullest, until she becomes fatigued, her abilities weaken, and that's when she'll meet her end.
Mocking people with words was something he was best at, and many had wasted their stamina because of his teasing and ultimately became his prey.
A little brat is most intolerant of provocation, making it even easier.
Just one thing...
"You sneaky dying monkey, is your mom gone, hiding everywhere, are you trying to return to your mom's belly? Tell me, and I'll give you a smack, turn you into monkey pulp, and stuff you back in your mom's belly!"
Renedia cursed right away: "You're this old and still this short, if I reach your age and kick you on the street, I'd think I kicked a soccer ball. Old monkey! Old soccer ball! Wrinkled up, no kick feel!"
"I'm not a monkey, nor a soccer ball!"
Matoro couldn't handle the provocation, shouting out loud.
He seemed to be no match for this little brat's mockery.
"Power Shock!"
Upon hearing the sound, Renedia swung her hammer forward, smashing a pit into the ground and scattering rubble.
Yet again, it missed.
"You dirty little person from the land of little people, when I find you, I'm going to hammer your head down to your butt-hole, a single hit will make you flower open!" Renedia bared her little tiger teeth, shouting full of energy.
She only refrained from cursing at Sage and the others. As for the others on the ship, who hadn't experienced her fiery mouth?
Bellamy was mocked as a golden-haired loser like Sage, Pearl was an iron turtle, Mute was a big gorilla, even Gin had been called a black-skinned monkey.
As for the newcomer Hawkins, though not yet having the chance, she'd already thought up a nickname in her mind.
A stinking card guy, a magic stick, or Lily's knockoff!
She only behaved well in front of Sage, Lily, and Marika, since they were partners, so she wouldn't curse at them, but not swearing didn't mean she was really that well-behaved.
Cursing was her nature, and besides that, she thought just like Matoro, as long as she found the person's position, one hammer blow would take him down. If the other side remained silent and just attacked quietly, how much stamina would she need to counteract?
