Gilga Kill!

Chapter 67 - Battle in the Valley Part I

*Clang! *Clang! *Clang!

*Boom! *Boom!

The once silent and peaceful valley, has turned into a fierce battlefield.

Sounds of swords clashing, groaning, yelling and the valley being slowly destroyed keeps resounding through out the valley.

*Clang! *Clang! *Clang!

On the Death Tagool's shoulder, Akame and Kurome are changing slashes, counters, parries, blocks and feints.

However, that doesn't last long as Kurome is burdened by controlling seven corpses.

Slowly but surely, Kurome is being pushed back by Akame's relentless unorthodox slashes.

" Shouldn't you be having a hard time controlling seven corpses and fending off my attack Kurome? " Akame asked emotionlessly without stopping her assault.

" Hum hum hum... Should you be focusing on me Nee-san? " Kurome sneered while fending off Akame's assaults, albeit with a lot of difficulty.

*Chill!

A sudden shilling feeling ran past her spine for a moment, causing her to reflexively leaps back, dodging an incoming thrusting strike.

" Natala... " Akame murmured.

In front of Akame, a blonde man wearing white robe and a mask that covers his nose and mouth is staring at her with his lifeless blue eyes. On his hand, is a spear like weapon which is known as the Shingu, Trisula.

Without waiting for Akame to ready her stance, Natala shots to her and starts raining her with thrust, swipe, and slashes, forcing Akame to be on defensive.

" Kurome! Return him to the ground and let him rest already! Isn't he your friend?! " Akame roared while fending off Natala's fierce assaults.

With a grin, Kurome leaps and also attacks Akame alongside Natala.

" What are you saying Nee-chan... It's because he was my friend that I wanted him to stay by my side... Forever. " Kurome said with a twisted smile. " And don't worry. You'll also be by my side after this too. So, we can stay forever together... Like how we used to. " She added with a smile even more twisted than before.

" Ugh... Don't joke around... " Akame clicked her tongue as she parries Kurome's strike.

" I see. That's a shame. " Kurome sighed, and then Natala appears as he hits Akame's bowel using his spear's handle.

Akame gritted her teeth in pain as she got thrown off from the Death Tagool's shoulder.

Not wasting this chance, Bols directed his Rubicante's flamethrower towards Akame.

" Magma Drive. "

The sound of engine whirling and the temperature nearby raises tremendously as Bols activates his Teigu's ability.

Red light formed in front of the flamethrower, and it expands till the size of a football before it got shot towards Akame's direction.

" Kuh! " Akame gritted her teeth with anger as the blazing red ball is getting closer to her and she is falling towards that blazing red ball.

But, a black armored figure, Tatsumi, caught Akame before the blazing ball could hit her.

" Don't rush in alone! It isn't like you Akame! " Tatsumi scolded.

" ... I... I'm sorry. " Akame apologized.

" They aren't enemies we can beat by rushing things. Regain your composure before fighting them again. " Tatsumi said after dropping Akame after they land. " I'll protect you from any attacks in the meantime. " He added while positioning his armor's weapon, Tyrant's Saw, towards his foes.

' Tatsumi... He's grown so much... Right. What am I doing, leaping there and facing Kurome alone while she has that huge skeleton and Natala guarding her. ' Akame thought inside her head.

' Maybe because I've been too lax since Gilga and Tatsumi happens upon Night Raid. ' Akame thought for a moment.

After a few moment, Akame stood up beside Tatsumi while clenching her Murasame tightly and glaring at Kurome who has already stood near the forest with Natala on her side.

" Nee-san. You betrayed us to join those kind of people... I'm truly disappointed... Death Tagool. Kill them. " Kurome ordered coldly, and then the Death Tagool faces them and opens it's jaw.

After a brief moment, blue light with white core condenses between it's jaw.

And then, with a '*Chiing!' sound, a huge blue laser is released, and in an instant, the ground where Akame and Tatsumi used to be along with the valley's geography got drastically changed from that single beam attack.

" Waaa~! It changed that terrain from that single attack! " Kurome exclaimed happily and amusedly.

" But, as expected, they dodged it neatly... " Kurome said gloomly as she takes out her snack bag and starts eating.

" So, this is the prowess of a Class-Super danger beast! " Najenda gasped as she watches the altered terrain and Night Raid members who have scrambled to safety.

Not wasting the chance, the Death Tagool raises it's boney arm and swings it towards Najenda.

Susanoo, being her Teigu, dashes and carries Najenda as they both dodges the Death Tagool's assault, which cratered the ground.

" It's strong! Gather everyone and we'll take it down first! " Najenda ordered after both her and Susanoo are a few feet away from the Death Tagool's attack range.

" That order is wrong Najenda... It certainly is strong. " Susanoo said as he calmly walks towards the Death Tagool and enter it's attack range.

The Death Tagool once again lifts it's arm before swinging it down at Susanoo.

However, on contrary to what it expected, it's arm got repelled by Susanoo, which is standing still on its spot with it's mace raised.

" However, I alone am enough to face it. " Susanoo announced.

Najenda gasps in amazement for a moment before saying with a thumbs up. " As expected of my Teigu! "

-----------------------------------------------

While Najenda and Susanoo are facing Death Tagool, Bulat and Tatsumi pair are facing a gorilla danger beast, Apeman, and a weird cloaked man with red mask, Hentarr.

" Groaaaaa! "

Apeman roared as it leaped towards Tatsumi and Bulat while launching numerous punches towards them.

Both Tatsumi and Bulat then distance themselves so Apeman couldn't attack both of them at the same time like before.

However, just as Tatsumi is about to attack Apeman, Hentarr is already at Tatsumi's back as he takes out his daggers and slashes at Tatsumi.

However, Tatsumi's Black Incursio automatically hardens when it almost got slashed.

Tatsumi then turns around as he swings Tyrant's Fang at Hentarr, which Hentarr dodges with strange movement, which seems like his body is bending to dodge Tatsumi's strike.

Sadly, that chance won't easily come by, as his opponent was a n extremely skilled assassin who excels in both speed and techniques.

Not to mention his opponent is a zombie which needs no stamina to fight, so a long fight is out of question. A front is also rendered useless as his opponent is on another league compared to him.

" I still have a long way to go eh? " Tatsumi smiled bitterly beneath his mask as he continues lashing out slashes at Hentarr again.

" Inexperienced... Inexperienced... " Hentarr kept muttering as he dodges Tatsumi's slashes, mocking him.

" Hah?! What did you say?! " Tatsumi roared as he slashed powerfully at Hentarr.

Hentarr however, not only dodging Tatsumi's strike, but stood above Tyrant's Fang before leaping to Tatsumi and dish out a clear stab aimed at his forehead.

Once again, Black Incursio protected Tatsumi as it intercepted the daggers by transforming a part of the mask into a jaw that bit the dagger.

Having his attack intercepted, Hentarr leaps back and creates a distance between Tatsumi and himself while mumbling " Failed attempt " repeatedly.

' If it weren't for Black Incursio, I would have been long gone. ' Tatsumi thought. ' Just what's with this guy? '

" GRRRR!! " A loud growl can be heard as Apeman leaps towards Tatsumi and starts raining him with punches.

" What? Aren't you supposed to fight Aniki? " Tatsumi exclaimed.

Then he notices that Bulat is fighting Wave right now.

" I should thank you for what you did that day. " Wave growled while dishing out punches towards Bulat.

" Oh? And what might it be? I couldn't recall it quite well. " Bulat chuckled.

" You!! GRAND FALL!"

Wave gritted his teeth in anger as he leaped to the sky before dropping towards Bulat with insane speed.

Not underestimating his opponent, Bulat chose to dodge the attack rather than blocking it.

However, Wave's Grand Fall is so strong that it broke the ground and a huge lump of rock is headed towards Bulat.

Bulat then punched the rock, shattering it, only to meet Wave's right straight with his face, which sends him flying.

" How do you like that?! I'm not always going to be beaten by the likes of you! " Wave snarled as he repositioned himself, waiting for the dust to settle down before continuing his assault.

After the dust settles down, Bulat id standing there, clapping his hand.

" I must admit, you're stronger than the last time we met. " Bulat said calmly.

' What? How come that doesn't even leave a scratch? ' Wave thought.

" Too bad, there is someone who hits harder than that. " Bulat said as he whizzed and then reappeared in front of Wave with Neuntöte on his hand.

Powerfully, Bulat swings his Neuntöte towards Wave.

Unable to dodge in time, Wave is forced to block Bulat's swing using his arms. Bad choice...

" WAAAA!!! "

Wave screamed in pain as he got sent flying from that single power swing.

" Don't worry. Now that you've gotten stronger, that much won't kill you. Since you're not a target, that's the best I can do for you. " Bulat said. " And, we'll meet again in the future, so... " He added with a smile under his mask, causing Wave to feel a shiver travelling down his spine while still in midair.

-----------------------------------------------

" Oh! A home run! " Gilga exclaimed.

" And to think that he get blown away again despite me saving him just now. " Gilga sighed but then he continues stuffing popcorn into his mouth again.

-----------------------------------------------

" Wave-kun! " Bols raised his head a little bit when he heard Wave's scream.

However, he doesn't have a leisure to look at Wave's direction as his opponent is Night Raid's ace, Akame.

Noticing a little gap in Bols'defense, Akame leaps towards him as she unsheathes Murasame.

" So, I don't even have the leisure to worry about my comrades huh? " Bols muttered. " And, to think that you will come directly at me. "

Bols then points Rubicante's flamethrower at Akame and a huge flame is shot out from it, burning everything in front of Bols.

Sadly, Bols' attack only hits the air and the soil, as Akame is already behind him.

" Eliminate. " Akame muttered coldly as she swings her Murasame.

However, before Murasame could hit Bols, Wall, a bald man with sunglasses wearing a white suit and equipped with a transparent tactical shield on his back, interjected as he shields Bols with his body.

After blocking Akame's slash, Wall kicked Akame only for her to dodge and creates a distance between her and Wall.

Usually, after being grazed, even by a bit, by Murasame, the target should've been weakened and died a few seconds later. However, even after getting slashed by Murasame, Wall is still moving, unaffected by Murasame.

' Murasame doesn't work on corpse controlled by Yatsufusa! ' Akame thought as she leaped back.

" Akame! Hang in there! I'll cover- ?! " Leone shouted as she gets close to Akame, but before she and Akame can group up, a whip coils itself around her ankle, stopping her from getting closer to Akame.

Then, the owner of the whip, Rokugoh, pulls the whip, sending Leone flying to the side of the valley.

Rokugoh previously was one of the capital's generals. However, after finding out the capital's darkness, he wanted to change it by joining the Revolutionary Army. Sadly, before he could join the Revolutionary Army, Kurome, with the help of her comrades, managed to take him down and he is turned into an obedient doll by Kurome's Yatsufusa.

" Now you've done it you old man! " Leone growled as she cracked her fists.

Rokugoh raised his whip, and his whip moves upward while slithering like a snake. He then swings the whip down towards Leone.

" That kind of attack, I can see through it easi-?! " Akame said proudly, but before she finished her words, Rokugoh's whip moves at abnormal speed, creating afterimages.

" I can't see through it?! " Leone gasped as she raised her hands in order to block the incoming wh.i.p.s.

The afterimages then, rain down on Leone and hitting her on various places, such as cheek, nose, forehead, bosom, arm, stomach, back, waist, t.h.i.g.h, calf, etc.

However, a few moments later, a white laser pierced Rokugoh's c.h.e.s.t area, causing him to stop lashing his whip at Leone.
