"Huh? What's happening?"
"Why did they stand up all of a sudden?"
"Didn't we kill them before?"
As everyone panicked, emergency reminders were broadcast from the main base, alerting everyone to the unfolding unnatural accident that had occurred during this test.
"Emergency outbreak! Emergency outbreak! All examinees immediately evacuate to the nearest shelters!"
Yet, that reminder didn't calm everyone. Instead, it made all of them become even more panicked, so Shinra simply smashed the nearest monster with a hammer fist!
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!
The grotesque monster was directly destroyed, unable to defend against Shinra's blow.
"Don't panic! Even if they have risen from the dead once again, they are weaker than before!"
Shinra didn't think that those zombie-like Kaiju were a threat since they were far weaker than the living Kaiju that they had fought before, but the minds of everyone were far from right, and it was better to be careful than sorry.
"Izumo-san, Kaguragi-san, please lead everyone to evacuate."
"Yes!" 2x
Among all the participants on the exam, Shinra believed that Haruichi Izumo and Aoi Kuraragi could handle the evacuation.
"What are you going to do, Shinra-kun?" Kafka asked worriedly as Shinra seemed about to leave.
"I am going to see whether there are people who are hurt and can't run away."
Shinra's ability was beyond all of them, and if someone could save others from the crisis, then it would be him. The soldiers from the Third Division would take some time to rescue them, so before that, even if he couldn't defeat all the Kaiju, he should slow down those Kaijus, so everyone could evacuate as soon as possible.
"Also, I haven't seen Shinomiya-san. I'll leave the rest to you guys."
Saying so, Shinra left the group as he used his Bane Bane no Mi discreetly, which made his leap even longer and faster. The spring on his feet made him move like a grasshopper, propelling himself into the air and moving at a speed that was unbelievable in the eyes of many!
"Amazing..."
All of them realized that it wasn't that Shinra, with 100 percent of unleashed combat power, wasn't so special, but that he had just matched himself to their level!
If he were serious, then would they be able to chase him?
Yet, while everyone was relieved when they saw Shinra's speed, Kafka felt worried and thought of going by Shinra's side, who was worried about Kikoru.
'Wait, I will be there, too!'
As Kafka thought so, he also left under Ichikawa's stunned gaze.
"Senpai!"
However, Shinra's feeling was correct since Kikoru was really in danger, especially after she was hit by a strange bullet that almost penetrated her heart.
'If I hadn't made a shield before...'
Yet, her eyes never looked away from the mushroom-like head of the Kaiju, who spoke in a human way with a large Kaiju, who seemed to be at the level of Honju, but unlike the one that was inside the exam, this one was much larger, as if from another level, causing all the staff to be instantly alerted as it had a 6.4 magnitude of danger.
Clutching to her body tightly, Kikoru heard the reminders for everyone to evacuate, but if she evacuated, then who would stop the Kaiju from massacring the participants of the exam?
Her petite body was riddled with wounds. It seemed about to crumble. No, she was already on her knees, holding her wounds tightly, so blood wouldn't come out and make her pass out, giving her more time to stay awake, so she could be of help to others.
Unlike the others, Kikoru had made up her mind to do this job, especially after the death of her mother. Her mother was an impressive soldier, and she loved her very much, but as she passed away, she was the one who would inherit her place.
So, she wouldn't lose!
Until all the Kaiju were defeated and dead, she would stand up and save everyone, yet as she was about to stand, the large limb of the Kaiju smashed her trembling body into the ruined building nearby!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!
"Gah!"
Her body was wrecked, everything was just painful, so that she couldn't even breathe.
"Kill her first. Then, you can continue with the others."
The mushroom-shaped Kaiju talked to the gigantic Kaiju, giving it an order to kill everyone else after it killed the girl.
Cough!
Blood kept pouring from her lithe, beautiful body, yet her eyes kept staring firmly toward her enemy. Parts of her combat suit were torn, showing her small, white shoulders that trembled due to the pain of her broken arm.
Yet, while her eyes showed the determination of a soldier, her body could do nothing, and just lay there, ready to welcome death, meeting with her mother until all of a sudden—
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
A rain of explosive bullets rained down on the duo of Kaiju before the tall figure that she had tried to compete with, and she tried to defeat, stood in front of her during her moment of crisis.
"You okay, Shinomiya-san?"
"..." Kikoru.
"Wait, I will end them, then save you."
"Hmm?"
"ROOOOOOAARRRRRR!!!"
The gigantic Kaiju was hurt all over, seemingly about to die, yet like a beast that was on its last legs, it would bring down its hunter together with it!
Even if it were to die, it would bring this bastard together!
Yet, Shinra didn't even flinch and just threw his grenade, which exploded directly in the mouth of the gigantic monster!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMM!!!
The explosion was harsh, but it was far from enough to kill the Kaiju.
Yet, this wasn't the end since Shinra continued to shoot down the Kaiju on its vital points until it was no longer able to stand up any longer, and—
"Die."
BOOOOOM!!!
Still, Shinra ignored the gigantic Kaiju and stared at the mushroom head of Kaiju that had lost its limb, staring at it for a while, then used his Eye of Usurp to take everything. He wasn't sure why he did this, but he had a feeling that this Kaiju would give him a surprise. More importantly, it was his first time seeing a humanoid shape of a Kaiju. While its head had a weird shape, it had a similar body to that of a human, so he decided to bet, betting on his luck, using his limited time of this precious ability of this Kaiju, and it seemed his luck was good.
Only, he did this silently and hid away everything with the smoke bomb, which made Kikoru panic, thinking something had happened to him inside.
"Shinra! Shinra!"
Kikoru stood trembling like a young calf that just learned how to walk, walking inside the smooth fearlessly to help him, but while her mind was strong, her body said otherwise as she stood crumbled once again, but before she fell, a powerful arms wrapped her petite body firmly, so she wouldn't fall once again.
"Don't force yourselves, Shinomiya-san."
Kikoru couldn't look away, her eyes were focused on him as if in this world, only the two existed, until all of a sudden—
"Ah, are you two okay?"
As they heard this voice, they turned their heads and saw a humanoid monster asking with a doubtful and silly expression, scratching his head in a silly manner.
"...." 2x
Shinra raised his rifle and shot the monster directly.
Bang!
