章節 716: Lightning fast reactions

Reima flies towards the huge dust cloud with Moka and Nerissa close behind him, using Observation Haki he scans within the cloud to try and see if there are any survivors...

Moka "Do you see Alucard?" she asks, reminding Reima that they're not just destroying an organisation...

Reima "Eh... Ah, right..." he mutters, having completely forgotten about it. Within the cloud he can detect numerous survivors, some seeming to be stronger than others but more are either flying or crippled on the ground floor.

He continues to scan for Alucard but has to grab Moka and Nerissa to dodge something heading for them...

*CRACKLE!*

A yellow lightning bolt passes by where they'd previously been. The trio look down at the cloud and Reima swipes his hand, casting a powerful Aard and blowing the majority of it away.

"You've destroyed our headquarters! But you won't leave here alive!" a voice shouts, drawing their attention to some kind of yellow-haired humanoid beast.

Reima "What kind of ugly dump did your mother shit out..." he mutters, though everyone could hear him.

"YOU DARE!?! I AM RAIKA! FITH SUB-DIVISION LEADER OF FAIRY TALE, I WILL DESTROY YOU!" He roars.

Moka "It's a Raiju, an S class monster." she says behind Reima, still being carried by Nerissa.

Reima raises an eyebrow "A lucky bastard?" he asks, righteous indignation building within him.

Moka tries to kick him in the back of the head but isn't able to reach him, "No! A thunder beast you fool!"

Raika "That's right! Its time to meet your end stranger! I'll be taking that girl with me after I'm done with you!" he shouts as lightning begins to coalesce around his body.

Reima gets some distance from the others and flies towards Raika, not yet drawing his blade... "So, dog-face... You have any idea where I might find some Shuzens?" he asks, they being the most likely to know where Alucard is.

Raika's eyes widen briefly before turning to normal, "I do... LET ME TELL YOU!" He shouts suddenly, attempting to attack Reima off-guard

*THUMP!*

Raika collides with Reima who makes no attempt to stop the moment, both being flung high into the air as the former tries to deliver punches and kicks to the other...

Reima blocks them with ease, the lightning not affecting him in the slightest... "Compared to Solaire you're nothing dog." he mutters, blocking another punch, grabbing the wrist and wrenching the arm backwards... Dislocating the Elbow, Shoulder, and breaking many bones within it.

Raika gives a pained grunt as he feels his arm utterly destroyed, he kicks off of Reima who lets him retreat. The Raiju fires off more lightning, each bolt hitting and bouncing off Reima as if he were made of rubber. "Why, won't, you, DIE!" He shouts, unleashing the biggest bolt thus far which strikes Reima in the chest and has him give grimace in pain.

Seeing Reima finally get hit seems to boost Raika's morale, encouraging him to shoot more, and more... Moka who is watching looks on worried at the fight, she glances at Nerissa but sees her non-plussed expression which alleviates her worries slightly.

Raika "Hah! Had enough!?!" he shouts, not relenting his assault.

Reima cannot help the small grin coming to his face as something quickly flies from the sky above him...

*CLANK!*

Within the blink of an eye, Reima had drawn his blade and was defending against another figure... Her tanned skin and blond hair wasn't the most notable thing... No, that would belong to the massive bladed wing where her arm should be that was grinding against his own blade.

Reima "You've finally stop sneaking around like a rat... Bat?..." he mutters, his Divinely enchanted silver blade beginning to harm the blade wing it was in contact with.

"I'm sorry!" she says, her tearful expression confusing him...

Raika "Kahlua! Stop apologizing and kill him!" she shouts, approaching to assist her.

Some distance away Moka looks on Kahlua in horror and disbelief, "Sister?" she mutters.

Nerissa "Sister?" she asks.

Moka "Kahlua, my elder-sister... Why is she here... Why is she doing this?"

Nerissa frowns, "Tell Rei, before she dies." she states, Moka's eyes widening.

Reima is about to cut this girls arms and legs off, but is interrupted by a voice, "Don't hurt my sister!" Moka shouts...

Reima "Bro, tell her not to hurt me!" he shouts, kicking Kahlua away and blinking behind Raika.

Raika isn't able to react as Reima's blade cuts him in half, his upper-half looking around confused at the loss of feeling to its legs before plummeting to its death.

His body collides against the floor hard, splattered blood everyone, however, the red paint nor decorating the floor ominously starts being absorbed, the stone seeming to draw the blood as well as the corpse into itself.

Reima eyes Moka's sister, wondering if there was a way to incapacitate her without killing her... "If you don't stop I'll be forced to hurt you." he says carefully.

Kahlua "Please run... I'm sorry!" she cries as she flies forwards and slashes at Reima again.

He blocks the bladed wing with an Armament Haki infused hand and uses the pommel of his silver sword to hit her in the face, knocking her head back fiercely enough that it'd break the neck of any regular human.

She isn't unconscious yet though so he grabs her hair and begins descending, brutally slamming her head into the floor as the reach the ruins.

Reima holds the girl back up to see if she's knocked out yet, her blade heading for his neck irritating him more than he'd like to admit... "Just, fucking, go-to, sleep!" he says, slamming her head into the floor a couple more times.

After innumerable impacts to the floor Kahlua's body begins to liquefy, covering his hand and crawling up his arm like some kind of slime.

He tries to shake her off to no avail, casting a couple high powered stunners at her which also prove ineffective... Whatever she is, she's freakishly resistant to being knocked unconscious!

Kahlua "I'mmmm sorrryy." she somehow manages to say, her voice sounding distorted from her slime-like form.
