They, Ghouls, could generally distinguish the scent of their own kind.
That boy clearly had a normal human scent, so how could he have a Kakugan?
However, there was one possibility: a Ghoul who lived with many humans every day might have their scent mixed with human scents, making it difficult to distinguish. He felt it was very likely the other party was in that situation...
The man suddenly "slammed the brakes," seeming to no longer intend to attack Amou Byakuya, and instead cursed, "Damn it, what bad luck! I thought I'd run into some 'rations' delivering themselves to my door, but it turns out to be one of my own kind!"
He looked disgusted. The flesh of his own kind was different from human flesh.
A Ghoul's taste buds were rather special. Not only would they feel nauseous eating normal food, but the flesh of their own kind was also very unpalatable. Human flesh, on the other hand, was a delicacy to them.
Moreover, preying on humans could strengthen them, replenishing or even increasing the necessary "RC cells" in their bodies.
Although cannibalism among Ghouls could also allow them to ingest "RC cells," the taste was far worse than human flesh, and not many Ghouls were willing to madly pursue strength through cannibalism.
So, this guy felt disgusted after mistaking Amou Byakuya for his own kind.
"You'd better scram! This is my 'feeding ground.' If you dare take half a step closer next time, I'll tear you apart!"
The man spoke to Amou Byakuya in an extremely vicious tone.
A "feeding ground," as the name implied, was a place where Ghouls preyed on humans. Many Ghouls would designate their own exclusive "feeding grounds." The stronger the Ghoul, the larger and better-located the "feeding ground" they would fight for, and that place would then become their private territory.
If one trespassed on another Ghoul's private territory, it could easily trigger a brutal fight.
"You want me to scram? You're not qualified."
Amou Byakuya didn't respond with another word. Instead, he expended the chakra in his body to use the D-rank ninjutsu, the "Body Flicker Technique."
That's right, he had chakra in his body; otherwise, he couldn't use ninjutsu. It could be considered chakra provided by the Lv1 Hashirama Cells, and also partly Uchiha Madara's chakra. The two chakra streams had already fused, so there was no need to differentiate.
Amou Byakuya used the "Body Flicker Technique" to instantly appear behind the Ghoul. If the opponent hadn't almost been right in front of him, the D-rank "Body Flicker Technique" wouldn't have been able to achieve instant movement over much of a distance.
There are many types of Body Flicker Techniques; this D-rank one was naturally the most basic and lowest level.
Instantaneous movement wasn't just a matter of speed; it made it impossible for an average person to react. That Ghoul also couldn't react in time.
"Great Fireball Technique!"
Amou Byakuya silently recited in his mind, releasing the C-rank Fire Style ninjutsu, "Great Fireball Technique."
As chakra gathered in his throat, a ball of fire shot from his mouth, rapidly expanding from a small fireball into a huge one. The high-temperature flames engulfed the Ghoul in front of him.
Although the "Great Fireball Technique" was rather awkward in Naruto—a very popular Fire Style ninjutsu that almost never had a lethal effect, either being dodged, absorbed, or blocked in various fancy ways—to be fair, its power was still very strong.
"Gah-aaaaah—!!"
The Ghoul, scorched by the high temperature, immediately let out a miserable scream.
But there was a problem: a Ghoul's regeneration ability was also extremely strong. It was very difficult to kill one in a single blow, so Amou Byakuya's attack failed to kill this Ghoul.
Seeing this, Amou Byakuya decisively picked up a crowbar from the ground nearby, also known as the "Holy Sword of Physics."
He had Uchiha Madara's taijutsu. Although it was just a fraction, it should be enough for now.
Amou Byakuya suddenly exerted his strength, relying entirely on brute force to strike the Ghoul's tail-type Kagune.
The Kagune, already scorched by the high temperature, was naturally not as incomparably hard as usual. His full-force strike snapped the Kagune.
The Ghoul was in extreme pain from the burning. No matter how strong his physical defense and regeneration were, it didn't stop him from feeling pain, so much so that he didn't realize the severity of the problem.
Immediately after, Amou Byakuya followed up with another "strike," completely severing the Kagune this time.
He reversed his grip on the severed Kagune, replacing the "Holy Sword of Physics" in his hand.
In this world, there is a special weapon used to deal with Ghouls called a "Quinque," which is actually made from a Ghoul's Kakuhou and Kagune. The key is that the Kagune's offensive power and hardness are extremely strong.
To be precise, the power wasn't even in the same dimension. The Ghoul, having lost his "Kagune" that served for both offense and defense, was instantly pierced by Amou Byakuya, who used the Kagune in a reverse grip. It was as easy as cutting through mud.
Located at the base of the Kagune, the organ inside the body known as the "Kakuhou" is the most important organ in a Ghoul. It was directly destroyed by Amou Byakuya, dealing a fatal wound to the Ghoul.
The miserable screams gradually died down. He lay on the ground, dying, his death just a matter of time.
Hearing this system notification, Amou Byakuya suddenly realized that fighting Ghouls could also earn him Fusion Points.
At this time, Amou Byakuya opened the system panel with his mind and took a look. He found that he had already accumulated 87 points in the [Fusion Points] column. In other words, he was only 13 points away from advancing his fusion progress to Lv2.
By then, his abilities in all aspects would surely be comprehensively enhanced, and his Sharingan would definitely not be just one-tomoe...
