บท 170: Crimson Fire Arrow

After Sky Qilin completely fused with Giotto, the sun tattoo appeared all over his body.

Giotto's aura began to change. The injuries he had taken during the battle were recovering at speed visible to the naked eye. Sun Flame's Activation characteristic could also stimulate his muscle and joints in addition to enhancing his cell regeneration.

In this state, he possessed higher physical strength and speed on top of having super-speed regeneration.

However, such a powerful ability wasn't without side effects!

The Sun Tattoo gave him such an amazing ability in exchange for his life force. Giotto's lifespan would decrease the longer he remained in this mode.

Right now, Giotto could clearly feel his life force slipping away. But in this situation, the Sun Tattoo was undoubtedly the most suitable power for him. This power was perfect for fighting against Kong, Sengoku, and CP0 agents. Moreover, he could basically ignore the enemy attack because his injuries would recover as he breathed!

"Siu!"

In the next moment, Giotto disappeared from everyone's field of view. Even Color of Observation Haki found it hard to catch his current speed. With Dying Will Flame's propelling force and his enhanced physique, his speed had reached an unimaginable level.

Admiral Sengoku tried his best to follow Giotto's movement with his eyes, and he immediately shouted, "Watch out, Borsalino!"

At this moment, Sengoku's eyes finally caught up with Giotto's movement, but the moment he warned Kizaru, a loud sound resounded.

Bam!

Giotto struck Kizaru's back the moment he appeared behind him, sending Kizaru flying by this powerful force.

A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out from Kizaru's mouth. It didn't occur to him that Vongola Primo chose to attack him first.

Did he do something to provoke Giotto?

In the battle just now, apart from the Comma Jewel of Eight Shaku that he threw at Yan in the beginning, he had only fired Laser a few times. Moreover, he hadn't even hit anyone, so how did he become the target of Vongola Primo's wrath?

However, Giotto's plan was straightforward. The reason why he attacked Kizaru first was that his ability was too annoying. If he sneaked up on him while he was fighting Sengoku and Kong, it would disrupt the rhythm of the fight. Moreover, he was well aware that he couldn't demolish Mary Geoise even if he used Sun Mark.

For the record, the powerful Five Elders had not made their move. Moreover, the completely unknown holder of Empty Throne was somewhere in Mary Geoise.

Therefore, his goal was to defeat or exhaust these people in front of him and seize the opportunity to leave this place.

And Kizaru had the most troublesome ability to get in the way of his escape. This guy was too fast. If he did not get rid of them first, it would definitely bring him more trouble later.

"Let's attack together. We can't leave him any chance to fight back!"

Kong ignored the Kizaru, who was sent flying, and with Soru, he appeared right beside Giotto. He did not hesitate to throw a punch that contained immense strength.

He had a feeling that Giotto was much stronger than before. If the opponent was given any chance to counterattack, they would be unable to withstand that attack!

As Kong rushed out, the two CP0 higher-ups also used Soru to close the distance with Giotto. Taking advantage of Kong's punch on Giotto, they got in position to use Rokuogan.

At the same time, Admiral Sengoku also thrust his Buddha Palm at Giotto.

Kong, Sengoku, and the two CP0 higher-ups surrounded Giotto. They already knew that Giotto was very fast. Naturally, they could not let him use the same method to catch them off guard. They must restrict Giotto's movement and then use overwhelming strength to bring Giotto down.

Once Kong saw that Sengoku and the other two CP0 were in position and confirmed that there was no way for Giotto to escape, Kong once again attacked with Rokuogan. Four powerful shock waves were aimed at Giotto from four different directions!

In the face of such an attack, Giotto's expression did not change at all. He used both Color of Observation Haki and Hyper Intuition to find where the enemy's attacks would intersect. Then, he immediately used X-Burner.

Under normal circumstances, the X-Burner required the user to discharge Soft Sky Flame with one hand to support themselves while using Hard Sky Flame with the other hand to attack. This was the only way to use it. However, at this moment, Giotto discharged Hard Sky Flame with both of his hands toward where the opponents' attacks would intersect.

In other words, he blocked two people's attacks with each hand!

However, doing something like this also caused harm to himself because X-Burner's recoil was too strong for his body to handle.

He felt that the bones in his arms were broken by the recoil, but at the same time, the Sun Mark granted an even more powerful recovery ability to heal him.

It was the cycle of rigorous pain, causing Giotto to break out cold sweat. He just gritted his teeth without making a sound.

The two sides were in a deadlock here. No one planned to give up.

One second, two seconds.

Five seconds, ten seconds...

Giotto did not know how many times the bones in his hands had been broken. Had it not been for Sky Qilin's Sun Form, he would not have been able to support himself for such a long time.

"Siu!"

Suddenly!

The sound of a projectile being fired was heard. It was an arrow that turned into a crimson flame that was shot from afar. It hit the back of a CP0 higher-up. The Disintegration characteristic of the Storm Flame also took place at this moment, instantly taking him down.

With one less enemy, Giotto's eyes suddenly changed. He instantly increased the flame pressure of his right hand and directly pushed away Sengoku's Buddha Palm. Then, distanced himself in an instant and appeared on the ruins more than ten meters away.

"That really helped a lot!" Giotto let out a long sigh followed by frequent pants. It was obvious that the cycle of having his arm broken and then healed back made him extremely uncomfortable.

At this time, a red-haired man slowly walked over from a distance and said lightly, "Aren't you a bit too reckless, Primo?"
