Capítulo 24: Galala crocodile
*Kenichi's POV*
After that, everything was resolved pretty quickly, the next day Councilman Masaru and his son Oga were exposed to the media, of course not all of their crimes were made public but most of them were, also all of their accomplices mysteriously disappeared, it was announced that they escaped but I already know that they are sunk in the deepest part of Tokyo Bay.
After a trial that lasted a few days, both father and son were imprisoned, it is assumed that Oga's treatment should have been more lenient because he was a minor, but for some reason unknown to the public the judge did not hesitate for a minute to put him in jail with the adults and a few days after both entered the jail they suddenly died, it was recorded that both could not bear the pressure of staying in prison and that is why they committed suicide, but several rumors say that in prison they were tortured to death.
I have to admit that the power of Mr. Ichijou and Commissioner Tachibana's influence was terrifying, this was definitely a joint effort between the Yakuza and the police.
The Yakuza were in charge of hunting down and eliminating all the accomplices, partners and family members who were involved, while the police were in charge of using all the evidence and all the legal issues so that the trial process would move forward much faster, in the end when they were in jail they were already in the territory of those two, in jail there must have been several of Mr. Ichijou's subordinates, in addition to the guards who worked for Commissioner Tachibana, most likely they ended up suffering the same fate as the girls they destroyed.
From what I saw from the videos in which they summoned Diodora Astaroth, they had long since disassociated themselves from him, so the chances of the Devil's defending them were quite low.
Now I'm just waiting for the To Love-Ru plot to start, if I follow the chronology of the original story, Lala should appear soon, the same goes for Nisekoi, Mr. Ichijou talked about a war with the Bee-Hive group and Commissioner Tachibana talked about his daughter transferring soon.
Another thing that happened lately is that my stats stagnated again.
---------------------------------------------------------
Stats
Level: 5
Strength: 100
Agility: 98
Stamina: 100
Defense: 95
Intelligence: 50
Magic: 80
Luck: 15 / 9999999 (One day of EX luck per week)
---------------------------------------------------------
For days now, no matter how much I train or how many Stray Devils I kill, my level doesn't increase, and neither do some stats like strength and stamina. At this point, the only thing that has increased is magic, although it does so at a much slower rate than the other stats.
That means that at my current level, Stray Devils are no longer useful for making me stronger, which is why I came to the conclusion that I need to fight opponents of the same level or stronger than me. Thinking about that, something came to mind.
---------------------------------------------------------
*You managed to impress Ichijou Raku and his friends with your cooking*
You received: Galala Crocodile
---------------------------------------------------------
I think it's time to use this reward. So far, it's the only one that seems more of a challenge than a reward. Out of curiosity, I began to dig a little deeper into the description.
---------------------------------------------------------
*Caution*
If the host accepts this reward, he will be sent to a dimension that perfectly imitates the environment of Baron Bog in which the Crocodile lives, and several of his abilities will be blocked, the host will only be able to depend on:
-Hanma Bloodline
-Elucidator & Dark Repulser (No abilities)
-Sandai Kitetsu
-Haoshoku Haki & Busoshoku Haki
The time to defeat the Galala crocodile will be unlimited, but he will not be able to leave the dimension until he defeats it. In addition, the abilities of the summoned pet will also be blocked.
---------------------------------------------------------
Wow, the difficulty of this just increased, this means that I can't depend on my Quirks or my magic, and Elucidator and Dark Repulser are just going to be normal very sharp swords, although I would like to use the Katana Sandai Kitetsu, my training with the breathing styles is just beginning, so for the moment it is also just a very sharp sword with a curse.
The good thing is that thanks to leveling up I'm now much stronger than before, plus I still have Busoshoku Haki that increases the damage my punches cause, although I'm still quite far from throwing destructive punches like Garp's, I already found that just a simple punch imbued with Busoshoku Haki is enough to easily kill the Stray Devil's.
Kirara's abilities are also going to be blocked so I won't be able to depend on her help.
Kirara: "Kyuu... Kyuu... Kyuu... Kyuu..."
Kenichi: "Don't worry Kirara, this is something I have to overcome on my own if I want to become stronger, in the future I'm sure you'll have your chance to become even stronger than you already are."
Kirara: "Kyuu... Kyuu..."
After a few minutes of hesitation, I finally pressed the option to accept the reward.
In the next instant everything around me started to distort even my own body and before I knew it, I was standing in the middle of a kind of swamp like the one that appeared in the Toriko anime, and in the distance I could also see a forest.
At first I was still stunned by the sudden change in my surroundings, it took me a few minutes to calm down, plus the air was much heavier so it was a bit difficult for me to breathe and my body felt a bit heavy due to gravity, the good thing is that at least I didn't weaken, all my stats remained the same.
If I'm not mistaken this place is emulating the environment of a part of the world of Toriko, I think I now understand why in worlds like Toriko's or One Piece's people are so strong, the environment of these worlds is much more demanding than mine, the gravity here is at least X3 than what the earth normally has.
As I wandered in my thoughts I felt an intense chill down my spine, at this moment I didn't have the danger sensor, but it wasn't necessary, even without it I could feel the imminent danger approaching from behind me.
I slowly turned around and when I did a colossal sized head began to emerge from the swamp, its general appearance was similar to that of a crocodile, but its size was another story, it was much larger than an elephant, not even the Stray Devil's matched it in size, it had eight legs and hard red scales, it also had two rows of sharp yellow spikes running all the way down its back, they were the same as the claws on its legs, its eyes were a green color that shone quite a bit in the dark and when it opened its snout, I could see some sharp white fangs sticking out.
The instant I saw him, I realized that he was very different from the Stray Devil's, they aside from their increased strength, magic and abilities, were not very different from humans, they were beings that were guided by their perverse desires...
But the beast that was in front of me right now was very different, this was...
A predator...
A fierce and voracious creature that will eat anything that catches its attention and once it chooses its prey, it will not let it escape.
Galala Crocodile: "GRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGR!!!!"
The Galala Crocodile released a powerful roar that destroyed everything in its path.
I have to admit that it was quite intimidating, I stood there waiting for its first move ready to receive it with a blow...
But I underestimated its speed...
In an instant it was in front of me ready to devour me with its powerful jaws...
Kenichi: (Niko Style, Flame Kata: Phantom Pace)
When the Galala Crocodile closed its powerful jaw with force, I had already moved in the moment just before it closed it, it seemed confused, after all it only bit the residual image left by my movement.
Before it detected me, I positioned myself on its right side in its blind spot, and without any intention of letting it counterattack I threw a blow with all the strength I have now, the Crocodile was sent flying for several meters, but it landed as if it had not received any damage.
My arm was shaking slightly, his scales were hard and his flesh was like a sponge, as I thought it seems that the most effective way to defeat him is with penetrating attacks like Toriko's, in the story he pierced him with his Fork and then decapitated him with his Knife.
But it's still early to assume that I can't damage him with blows, after all in my previous blow I didn't use Haki.
*Narrator's POV*
The Crocodile and Kenichi stood looking at each other in silence ready for the next attack.
During the previous exchange some small leeches stuck to Kenichi's arm, these leeches had a symbiotic relationship with the crocodile in exchange for him letting them reside in his snout, they had the function of creating light wounds that produced bleeding in his opponents, now with the blood that leaked from the small wound on his arm the crocodile could easily detect him by smell.
At the moment Kenichi was still on the defensive, first he was going to measure the crocodile's abilities and when he understood them he would go on the offensive.
But to Kenichi's surprise, the crocodile flexed its eight legs, and overcoming any kind of logic made an incredibly high jump that propelled him straight to his position, feeling the imminent danger of being crushed to death, he kicked the ground with great force and was propelled quite far from the impact zone.
When the Crocodile landed it created a huge crater, not in vain it weighed 13 tons, Kenichi thought he was safe but unexpectedly the crocodile hit him with its tail, although he blocked it with his arms and managed to imbue them with Busoshoku even so the blow sent him flying quite far and the bones of his arms were slightly fractured.
The moment Kenichi's toes touched the ground he immediately reinforced them with Busoshoku and propelled himself with Raging Fire at a speed that destroyed everything in its path, the crocodile could not even process what happened when Kenichi hit him on his right side with a powerful blow that destroyed his scales.
Galala Crocodile: "GRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGR!!!"
This time the crocodile couldn't help but roar in pain, but Kenichi didn't stop there, he kept throwing a barrage of blows that hit the same spot with incredible precision, his scales broke more and more until blood began to seep out, Kenichi's blows successfully pierced the crocodile's defenses.
The Crocodile was fed up with just receiving damage, he raised one of his legs, Kenichi moved quickly to dodge it, but the damage was already done, he now had a cut that went from his shoulder to his hip caused by one of the crocodile's claws, luckily thanks to the fact that he dodged it and partially defended himself with Busoshoku the cut wasn't that deep, but the blood was seeping out with great intensity.
Kenichi took distance, he no longer had the Battle Healing skill so he could no longer be reckless when receiving damage.
But the crocodile had no intention of letting its prey run away, it raised its tail and with great force hit the ground propelling it at high speed in Kenichi's direction.
This time Kenichi had no intention of dodging the crocodile's attack, he planted his feet firmly on the ground, perfectly aligned his joints and launched a powerful punch that broke the sound barrier.
This was the Mach Punch, a punch used by Katsumi Orochi, a powerful punch that could break the sound barrier, its minimum speed was Mach 78.
But Kenichi's was not so simple, apart from reinforcing it with Busoshoku also indestructible to further increase the damage caused.
Of course, with his Busoshoku still in its initial phase, he was unable to fully defend himself from the damage caused by the impact caused by his clash with the crocodile, his bone was shattered... But the one who received the worst damage was definitely the crocodile, most of its fangs were shattered and Kenichi's punch successfully pierced its defenses and left a deep fist mark on its nose that wouldn't stop bleeding, and it was sent flying quite far away.
Galala Crocodile: "GRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGR!!!"
Kenichi: "Shit... I'm not going to use that punch for now until I perfect my Busoshoku... Haa... Haa... Haa..."
This time it was Kenichi's turn to attack, he launched himself at great speed and when he was only a few meters away from the crocodile he jumped and aligned the four fingers of his left hand and with an intensity like that of a spear he pierced one of the eyes of the Galala crocodile.
Galala Crocodile: "GRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGR!!!!!"
This was the Devil Lance, a signature move of the Kaiwan Style used by Kuroki Gensai, if Kenichi had launched this move against the crocodile's body, his hand would have most likely broken, which is why he chose to use it on the weakest point of the Crocodile's body.
Of course that wasn't the end, Kenichi kept throwing powerful punches that broke the crocodile's scales more and more.
The enraged Galala Crocodile counterattacked with a headbutt that sent Kenichi flying.
The intense battle continued for several hours, Kenichi's body was a mess, his blood was seeping through every part of his body and his right arm was so shattered that you could see broken bones sticking out.
The Galala Crocodile was no better, most of the scales on his entire body were in tatters, like Kenichi his body was also bleeding everywhere and he was also missing two of his legs, as well as part of his tail.
Kenichi: "Haa... Haa... Haa... Haa... Haa... Haa... Haa..."
Galala Crocodile: "GRR... GRR... GRR... GRR... GRR... GRR... GRR..."
If Kenichi had decided to use his weapons, this battle would have ended pretty quickly, because of the constitution of his body the crocodile's movements were quite limited, usually he could only counterattack in a straight line and make a few movements with his tail, leg and head, if Kenichi had gotten close enough, cutting off his legs and tail with Sandai Kitetsu would have been easy.
But that's not what Kenichi wanted, he wanted to defeat the Crocodile with his own strength without relying on weapons, if his opponent only depended on his body how is it possible that he would use a weapon, besides even the Ogre was able to kill a giant elephant 12mt tall and weighing 60 tons with his bare fists, then how is it possible that he, who carried that same blood, would lower himself to win with a weapon in this type of fight for survival.
At that moment, Kenichi unconsciously began to release Haoshoku Haki, but it was not as simple as that, suddenly as if reacting to the intentions and the Haoshoku, his back began to react and undergo an unprecedented change.
The muscles of his back slowly began to form the face of a Demon, this was the Demon Face, the characteristic movement that only the Hanma could perform, after weeks of training and intense fights it finally manifested.
At that moment Kenichi entered a state where he felt his strength had no limits and slowly began to walk in the direction of the crocodile with firm steps.
The Crocodile also began to slowly approach, growing up in an environment where there were no predators stronger than him, he never knew the concept of fear, that's why he didn't feel intimidated at all by Kenichi's intimidation, if Kenichi had been in the city all the people would have fainted from his Haoshoku, not even the high class Devil's would have been spared.
They both felt the next attack would be the last...
The next attack would define who was the predator and who was the prey...
Beyond this there was no anger or regret, this was just a battle for survival and whoever won in the end could eat.
The Galala Crocodile gathered all the strength it had left and launched itself to bite with an impact several times greater than the previous attacks, as for Kenichi this time it had no intention of using a martial art, it simply gathered all the tension it could in its arm and at the same time gathered all the Busoshoku it had left in its fist, during this fight its performance with Haki increased several levels.
In an instant the crocodile's snout and Kenichi's fist collided, the impact was destructive, both were determined to win.
Kenichi: "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
Galala Crocodile: "GRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGR!!!"
They stood for several seconds, enduring the impact, until finally the Crocodile could no longer resist and his head was completely destroyed by the impact.
Instantly his body fell to the ground without any sign of life, at the same time Kenichi's body also collapsed from exhaustion and injuries...
Kirara: "Kyuu...! Kyuu..! Kyuu...! Kyuu...!
Kenichi: "Don't worry... Kirara... I'm fine... Haa... Haa... Haa..."
As Kenichi tried to catch his breath, a new system notification interrupted him.
---------------------------------------------------------
*Achievement System*
Congratulations, you managed to defeat the supreme predator of the Baron Archipelago, now the Baron Archipelago and all its ingredients and dangerous beasts belong to you, you will be able to enter this dimension as much as you want and you will also be able to fight or tame the different types of dangerous beasts found here, time passes differently in this dimension, so if the host lets some time pass, he will be able to fight a Level 8 Galala Crocodile again in no time.
---------------------------------------------------------
Before Before he could process that information, Kenichi's consciousness slowly began to fade.
Kenichi: "I'm sorry Kirara... But could you protect me... While I sleep for a while... I'm really tired..."
Kirara: "Grgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrgr"
Upon hearing Kenichi's request, Kirara quickly transformed into her combat version. The moment Kenichi defeated the Galala Crocodile, the blocking of the skills disappeared, so Kenichi began to slowly heal himself with Battle Healing.
Kenichi: "Thank you... Kirara..."
Without anything else to say Kenichi fell asleep, Kirara began to lick him and snuggled up next to him, it was a rather peaceful scene, but that peace lasted very little...
After a few hours, a large number of dangerous beasts of different capture levels began to appear, with the death of the supreme predator, they no longer had anything to fear, now they could hunt as much as they wanted among them.
In addition, it was impossible for them to miss the opportunity to devour the Galala Crocodile.
Kirara: "GRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGRGR!!!"
When Kirara sensed them, he immediately stood up and began to roar ready to fight them and protect Kenichi while he finished healing.
Unbeknownst to Kenichi, Kirara entered into a brutal fight that took hours with an innumerable amount of dangerous beasts.
Fortunately for Kenichi, time in that dimension passed faster than on Earth, a few hours equaled a few minutes.
*Perspective Shift*
In a large building near Sainan, the figures of three people could be seen, two intimidating-looking men wearing black suits with dark glasses.
Both men were cornering a girl.
The girl had the appearance of a teenager, she was very attractive, her hair was long and bubblegum pink with a spiral strand in the shape of an Ahoge sticking out of the top of her head, her eyes were emerald green and her appearance was quite curvy.
??? #1: "We've finally found her"
??? #2: "We never imagined that she would run away to a planet as remote as this... However... The game ends here..."
??? #1: "Now! Come with us!"
Girl: "..."
The girl just looked at them with serious and determined eyes.
