The 17th District, Exsul Headquarters.
“Blood is spraying~. The saints are praying~. The Devils are killing, brains are spilling~. E-v-e-r-y thing is sooo fucking red!”
Miko sat around a table singing while sharpening some throwing knives.
He rubbed his finger on one of the blades and showed a satisfying smile when he felt the sharpness.
“Bones are crushing, the police are rushing, just to get killed~.”
“Hey….Arent you a bit too excited?”
Chrome asked Miko while also preparing her gear with the rest of Silver Crow.
“Too excited? No way.”
“Then explain the mountain of weapons behind you!”
Behind Miko were practically every weapon one could think of.
There were guns, knives, swords, spears, poles, hammers, bombs…..
There were even a ruler for some reason….
“What are you talking about? I’m planning on using everything here.”
He took up a glue gun.
“For example, I’m gonna use this to glue captives eyes shut when I’m torturing information out of them.”
“Oh! I wanna try that!”
Said Ishma.
“I know that this is nothing new, but you’re pretty fucked up, you know that?”
“Not as much as your boss who started this war.”
Miko said as he spun the knife in his hand before stabbing the table with it.
“Don, everyone is ready to move at your orders.”
Yota came and reported.
“Oh! Let’s go! Let’s go! Hey, Miko let’s go already!”
“Calm down, Ishma.”
Miko placed his hand on the head of the overexcited Ishma to calm her down.
“What are the movements of the Pillars and the Syndicate?”
“The Pillars have already spread their forces all throughout the city to safe guard their properties. As for the Syndicate, several of their young officers have flown into a fit of rage because their base was attacked, and started to hunt down anyone related to the Pillars.”
“As I thought this war will occur all over the city.”
Said Miko.
“This will be fun.”
“Don’t get careless Miko.”
Said Sapphire, who was also equipping herself with weapons.
“Once this really gets under the way, you’ll be cornered from all sides with no way of escape. Not only that, you’ll have face not only the Pillars and Syndicate but Jin and Kaido Khan as well. There’s also a rumor that the leader of the Syndicate is very close to SS Class if he hasn't reached it already. If that’s true then he’s the strongest person in this entire city.”
“Sapphire, how long have you’ve known me?”
“Almost a year.”
“That’s right. We’ve known each other for so long yet you still don’t seem to understand me.”
Miko smiled innocently and said-
“I’m a warmonger. The greater the war the more excitement I feel. So you telling me all this will just make want to go to war even more. It’s like your cock teasing me.”
After he said the last sentence he felt a little bloodlust from Bloom but ignored it.
“I wasn’t trying to persuade you to not fight, I’m just telling you that you mustn’t underestimate the city just because you’ve been breezing through it from the moment you've arrived here.”
“Don’t worry. I’m going all out from the start.”
The same time in district 4.
After getting attacked by Jin Makoto, the Syndicate went into full war mode.
They sent an alert to every organization associated with them telling them the time has come.
It was time to take Grim City as their own!
The Syndicate deployed all of their officers and warriors to meet up with their allies and lead the way to total victory.
As he wasn’t an official member of the Syndicate Kaido was put under the control of Blanche, who was still at the district.
“……,”
You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.
He sat quietly across from Blanche with his eyes closed.
“They say that the black Reaper as returned.”
Said Blanche.
“I don’t care. My job is to help you people win this war, everything other than that isn’t important.”
Kaido replied.
“I beg to differ.”
Said Kei Hanazawa, who was also there with his sister nana. They were ordered by their father to work under Blanche during this war.
The three of them were the only subordinates Blanche had in the organization. However that wasn’t a bad thing. Kaido alone was worth 1,000 men, it balanced out.
“Knowing who you’re opponent is essential to any success.”
“Is that so? Then I see why you lost to Blanche in such a miserable manner.”
“You bastard!”
Kei flew into a fight of rage but he didn’t make any movements. That was because he could envision Kaido killing him 12 times over even before he took a step towards him.
He glared at Kaido for a bit before sitting back down.
From start to finish Kaido had his eyes closed and looked completely relax.
“Hahaha! I like you. You remind me of my old man.”
Nana said with a laugh.
“……..”
Kaido showed no response to her and silently sat there.
Nana however didn’t get mad. She liked Kaido’s mysterious but wild aura.
They stayed in silence for a while before Kaido slowly opened his eyes. He stood up and then started to walk away.
“Where are you going?”
“The enemies are closing in on our location. I’m going to take care of them.”
He said without looking back.
“I’ll come with you!”
Nana jumped up and said.
“No need. I can handle it all by myself.”
He didn’t wait for the others to respond before leaving.
He exited the hidden district through the demolished pathway that was once in the pharmacy that Jin blew up.
He walked down the destroyed street and looked around a bit before stopping.
“Roughly 200, huh?”
He said as he looked at the large amount of people that surrounded him.
“I expected more since this was the enemies base, but it seems like the Pillars are being cautious.”
“Who is this punk, and what is he mumbling about?”
One of the people surrounded Kaido said with an irritated tone.
“Maybe he’s quivering in his boots after seeing how many of us are there?”
“You might be right? Maybe he was scared so badly he turned into a retard?”
The others laughed and mocked Kaido. However as usual Kaido showed no reaction.
“I guess 200 is good enough for a warm up.”
He said as he took his hands out of his pocket.
“A little warning before we begin. I was never taught how to hold back, so if you don’t guard yourself properly, you’ll die.”
“What? Is he really retar-?!”
Before the man could finish his sentence, his head was sent flying by a punch by Kaido.
“Wha?!”
This naturally shocked the rest of the men.
“See? You didn’t guard, and now you’re dead.”
Kaido said in monotone.
“Y-You bastard!”
They flew into a fit of rage and charged towards Kaido with crazed expressions.
*Boom!*
Kaido’s figure flickered and several bodies exploded like balloons.
“Die!”
Several people attacked him from all sides with blades.
Kaido swung his hand and shattered the swords. He then spun around and ripped several people apart with a swing of his leg.
He then punch a hole through a man and grabbed the person behind him by his neck.
*Crush!*
He crushed the neck and threw the body into the crowd.
He then swung his arm and rid of the body his hand stabbed through.
He turned around and saw that he was inches away from countless bloodthirsty enemies.
“I guess, I’ll use them.”
He flicked his fingers and released black claws from his finger tips.
He swung his claws to the front.
*Boom!*
The ground ripped open and countless people were torn to shreds.
He swung his claws to the right.
*Boom!*
He received the same result.
Kaido lowered his center of gravity and then rushed forward. He swung both claws at the sametime.
*Boom!*
As if a typhoon had hit, dozens of bodies were easily ripped to shreds. Not only that, the buildings were sliced into pieces along with the road.
“M-Monster! This guy is a monster!”
One of the attackers screamed crazily after seeing Kaido’s strength.
“I remember him now! He’s the former 4th Throne who disappeared months ago!”
“Shit! You’re right! I didn’t hear about him joining the Syndicate!”
“Fuck, run!”
They shouted desperately, but they realized a little too late.
Kaido took a step forward.
*Boom!*
The ground burst out into waves as the buildings shook vigorously.
“Guh?!”
Spikes of earth pierced through them and made them erected in the air as if they were put on display.
“Guess I was wrong. They weren’t enough to be consider a warm up.”
Kaido mumbled.
He didn’t even have a single speck of dirt on him, or did he broke a single sweat.
“Well, maybe they’ll put up a better fight.”
He said as he saw several tanks approaching him from all directions. There were several helicopters and other aircrafts in the air as well.
Several spotlights landed on his body, making him visible in the dark night.
“Okay, let’s get started.”
*Boom!*
Kaido didn’t wait for them to attack and rushed towards a tank.
*Boom!*
He crushed the cannon with a punch, and then ripped through the armor with his bare hands.
“Ekk!”
The soldiers inside were scared shitless, so they started firing their guns at Kaido.
Kaido didn’t dodge and allowed the bullets to hit him. To the soldiers’ surprise the bullets were crushed when they hit Kaido’s skin.
“You’ll need something more powerful to harm me.”
He threw a punch and all of the soldiers were reduced to paste and their tank was sent flying.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
That’s when the other tanks started firing at Kaido as well as the aircrafts.
Flames spread throughout the area as the explosions grew bigger and bigger.
However, Kaido was seen walking through the explosions like they were gentle breeze on his skin.
He suddenly dashed forward and kicked the nearest tank into the air like a ball.
He punched another one away, and then grabbed one more and threw it into a helicopter.
*Boom!*
He jumped and flatten another tank with a stomp. He then grabbed a destroyed tank by the Cannon and swung it like a bat.
*Boom!* *Boom!*
He batted two tanks away before jumping several hundred feet in the air. He swung the tank and swatted a helicopter to the ground.
He then released the tank and allowed it fall along with him. He then use it as foothold and shot further into the air. Meanwhile the tank was blown to pieces by the force of his jump.
He land on top of an aircraft and quickly destroyed it with a punch.
*Boom!*
He jumped on a nearby aircraft and did the same. He spun in the air and sliced a helicopter in two with an axe kick.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Kaido jumped around from aircraft to aircraft swiftly destroying them.
The explosions lit up the sky like fireworks.
“Monster….This guy is a god damn monster.”
Kei muttered while watching Kaido through an observation satellite.
“See? I told you that Kaido was a beast.”
Blanche said proudly.
“He’s so cool!”
Said Nana, with an excited expression.
“I’ve decided! I want him as my husband!”
“Woah, woah there. Did you forget that we’re holding his girl hostage? Besides, I’ll be scared shitless to have a brother-in-law like that.”
Said Kei.
“Be quiet. I’ve already decided, I’ll definitely steal his heart.”
She said with a determined expression.
“Well, good luck with that….”
Said Blanche.
He looked back at the monitor and saw that Kaido had already destroyed all of the aircrafts and was falling towards the earth.
*BOOOM!*
The moment he landed, the ground burst open and a powerful shock wave destroyed remaining tanks and sent them flying.
Even the buildings started to crumble.
It was more like an asteroid had crashed into the earth rather than a person.
Kaido stood in the center of the mass destruction that he had caused with a nonchalant look on his face.
“Well, I guess that barely qualifies as a warm up.”
