Soru!
Lucci's figure disappeared from the spot, moving as fast as Inazuma, instantly closing in and arriving in front of Shano!
He bent his index finger, the finger bones carrying the fierce sound of cutting through the wind, directly attacking Shano's face—
"Finger Gun·Yellow Lotus!"
In an instant, he launched hundreds, even thousands of attacks, sweeping through countless afterimages, like a high-speed heavy machine gun recklessly spitting flames at close range.
The trajectories intertwined, from afar, it looked like a blooming lotus.
This was Lucci's improved version of Finger Gun, created as a strengthened move, showcasing its full power in the enhanced state of Half-Beastification.
Mediocre and incapable ones can only blindly imitate.
Only true geniuses and true strongmen, like him, would forge their own paths!
Bang bang bang bang bang!
The continuous sound of explosions shattered the silent night.
An impact far surpassing bullets instantly enveloped Shano's entire upper body, from his head to his chest, yet Shano remained standing in place, motionless.
Can't dodge it?
Anyone who knows a bit of Kami-e should be able to dodge at least a part, right?
The Great Sword Master, renowned throughout the Four Seas, turns out to be weak in speed!
Lucci seemingly already saw, when he would stop his attack, the opponent's entire body resembling a sieve, exploding with countless bloody holes!
His smile had just started to form, a grin yet to fully unfold—
Crack!
A clear sound of bones breaking suddenly rang out.
His index finger, that deadly weapon capable of piercing steel, was firmly clamped between Shano's two fingers.
Lucci's pupils contracted abruptly, his smile instantly froze.
"When did this happen...?!"
He hadn't even seen Shano's move clearly!
A second ago, his Finger Gun was still pouring down like a torrential rain.
And the next second, Shano seemed to have already predicted all his attack trajectories, accurately catching his index finger.
Then—
A gentle twist.
"Ah—!"
The pain drilled deep into him, Lucci clenched his teeth, instinctively trying with all his might to pull out his index finger.
But no matter how much force he applied, Shano's two fingers remained as unmovable as iron pincers, not even trembling despite his resistance.
The next moment, Shano's thumb exerted a slight pressure, pushing down—
Crack!
Lucci's index finger, that previously penetrated countless people's chests, surprisingly snapped like a fragile dry branch!
Shano's actions didn't cease yet.
He grabbed the broken finger bone, and forcefully pulled outward!
Rip!
Blood splattered, tendons tore!
The entire index finger was completely ripped out from Lucci's hand, skin and bone, utterly off!
"Aaaaaaah—!"
Lucci finally couldn't help but let out a heart-wrenching scream, staggering backward several steps.
His left hand tightly clutched his right wrist, blood rushing madly out through his fingers, dripping onto the ground with a "pata-pata" sound.
Yet he couldn't care less about this, raising his head, gazing at Shano in disbelief.
Under his previous onslaught, the opponent's entire body was unscathed!
"Just some childish moves, shouldn't use them to disgrace yourself."
Shano seemed to see through his thoughts, casually throwing the broken finger to the ground, shaking his head as he spoke:
"Show me your trump card directly, let me see what the real prowess of the strongest member of CP9 in the past eight hundred years really is."
Childish moves?
Clearly, it was the Finger Gun Ultimate Technique I painstakingly created...
But I was insulted like this by him??
Lucci's face turned red, his veins popped, but his eyes became more ferocious, as if wanting to tear Shano's mouth apart.
"You... bastard...!"
He took a sudden step forward, eyes filled with blood threads, squeezed out a hoarse low growl from his throat.
"Just a broken finger, don't think... it affects me at all!"
Before he finished speaking, his body started to change again.
First, muscles bulged and squirmed wildly, with skin surface emerging leopard-like patterns, and nails extended into sharp claws, pushing this Half-Beastification state to the limit...
But then his body suddenly began to shrink drastically!
Within just a breath, he returned to his normal human height.
Oh?
Shano slightly raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over Lucci.
At this moment, Lucci's muscle lines were strikingly defined like chiseling, no longer the terrifying twisted form resembling tree roots.
Breathing deep and long, with every move carried the demeanor of a Martial Arts Grandmaster, every inch of skin seemed to harbor explosive power.
"This is the strongest stance I mastered only after training Life Return to the extreme!"
In this state, Lucci's slightly shaken confidence instantly recovered.
With a cold face, he spoke indifferently:
"I've named this stance Kami-e Martial Body!"
"You probably have never seen it, you wouldn't know if, in this stance, you can still remain as calm as before."
"Is that so?"
Shano chuckled.
Never seen it?
Seems incorrect.
He was actually quite familiar with this stance...
"Seems finally interesting now."
Shano turned his head to glance at Iceberg on the ground, "Uncle, move further away, and help evacuate the people in this villa estate. This guy seems ready to fight desperately; the aftermath can easily injure people."
"I've long wanted to move away..."
Iceberg pointed at his knees, nearly crying, "Sir, but I really can't move!"
