Me! Cleaner!.

Chapter 554 Showdown

ended.

Looking at Leon, who did not take the opportunity to speed up and escape from the cooling lake when the huge monster fish was briefly blocked, but turned around and rushed back, the tall and thin man carrying a large suitcase at the bottom of the lake could not help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly.

Although this [Whale Shark Puppet] of mine can only perform the simplest tail fin slaps and full-force collisions and does not have any extraordinary special abilities, the simplest physical destructive force itself is sometimes the most unsolvable attack.

When a huge monster weighing over a hundred tons collides with a full force at a speed of more than 40 knots per hour, the impact force generated is so great that it is simply unimaginable for ordinary people.

Even the largest unanchored ship of the Thousand Sails Sea Nation could not withstand the full force of the [Whale Shark Puppet]. With Leon's physical strength only slightly better than that of an ordinary human, he probably wouldn't even have a chance of being shattered.

According to his own judgment, he would probably be "stuck" to the whale's head with his knife the moment they made contact, becoming a pool of muddy dirt that could not be washed off.

Although Leon, who has an immortal body, will not be killed so easily, as long as the "filth" is divided in the simplest way before his body recovers, he can be made half-dead and half-alive... huh?

Looking at the [Whale Shark Puppet] with its head cut open along the midline of the spine like tender tofu, Director Scorpio's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at the vague human figure between the two whale sharks in surprise.

What's going on? Why didn't [Between Puppets] trigger?

……

The bet was right...

Relying on the effect of [Cutting Silver Dagger], after cutting the oncoming strange fish in half, Leon, who had been looking tense, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

According to Senior Reuben and the others, Director Scorpio's [Between Puppets] can strengthen the puppet and ensure that it is not "destroyed" by any external force, while the effect of [Cutting Silver Dagger] itself is not destruction, but to cut "alive" whatever the blade touches.

After going back and forth, I guess he successfully took advantage of a loophole.

Although Director Scorpio's [Between Puppets] can prevent the puppets from being destroyed, it cannot prevent the "Rupo" of [Cutting Silver Dagger]. The knife given by Director Aquarius happens to be Director Scorpio's nemesis.

After taking a short breath, Lyon used [Smooth Road Ahead] again to clear the lake water leaking in around him, then raised his hand and scattered a large group of tree seeds again.

"Senior Reuben!"

"immediately!"

Following Reuben's response, the tree seeds scattered by Lyon grew instantly, and in an instant, hundreds of thigh-thick roots sprouted out.

These roots, similar to the aerial roots of banyan trees, grew rapidly in the cooling lake. In just a few breaths, they spread out a large area of ​​entangled roots, tightly binding the still twisting and struggling strange fish.

The fins on the chest and tail of the strange fish, which are used to exert force to paddle the water, have received extra care and are locked tightly by countless air roots, so even the slightest movement has become a luxury.

solved!
As the strange fish that was cut in half was completely restrained, the three souls of the man couldn't help but relax at the same time.

No matter how much destructive power this strange fish can unleash when it sprints at full speed, after being tied up like this by Reuben, it is estimated that it will not be able to rush forward. The next step is...

"Well done."

A voice that was very familiar to all four of them suddenly sounded from nearby, and the three souls of the one person couldn't help but look tense.

When Leon looked in the direction of the voice, he found that Director Scorpio, who had been "missing" for many days, was carrying his somewhat old big suitcase, stepping into the waterless area separated by "Smooth Road Ahead", and blocking the front of the "Smooth Road" with a playful look on his face.

"Reuben, Mona, Frankie."

After calling out the names of the three Scorpio Branch cleaners, the Scorpio Director said with some joy:
"I thought you were all killed in the explosion. I didn't expect to see you again. This is really great."

"Director Edward..."

After hearing what Chief Scorpio said, the three Scorpio Branch cleaners couldn't help but show extremely complicated expressions on their faces. Good news, the chief is not dead.

Bad news, he defected to the enemy.

The worse news is that if we can't defeat him, we will die.

"Chief, the three of us are actually dead."

After receiving Leon's hint to "delay a little", the female cleaner Mona calmed down and said with a complicated expression:

"It was Leon who went to the dead world in time. When the death messenger wanted to eat us, he drove away the death messenger and rescued the three of us."

"That's it."

Hearing this, Director Scorpio turned his gaze to Leon and said with a slightly grateful look:

"Thank you for saving Mona and the others. To be honest, I am now really glad that I did not refuse you to participate in this mission."

"You're welcome."

After nodding to Chief Scorpio, Leon reached out to touch the [Whale Shark Puppet] that was cut in half beside him, and asked hopefully:

"So, considering that I saved your men's lives, could you please be more generous when we start the fight later?"

"I can't let you go, but I can try my best to leave you with an intact body."

"..."

After smiling gratefully at the speechless Leon, Director Scorpio reached out and took out a rapier, and said a little embarrassedly:
"In fact, I am conscious now. I know you are the right party. You may even be here to save me.

But there is no way. My soul has been tampered with, and my 'cognition' has been suppressed. Now my whole body and mind are ready to kill you, and I can't resist this thought... Can you understand?"

I understand your mom!
After listening to Director Scorpio's words, Leon, who was slowly getting drunk, couldn't help but sneer and said provocatively:
"Then you should give it a try."

After glancing at Director Scorpio's chaotic soul and then at his hands, one yellow and one white, of obviously different skin colors, Leon suddenly lowered his body and, under the influence of alcohol, pounced on him with a knife.

"Given your current situation, it's not certain who will kill whom!"

……

Thirty seconds later.

"You're so hard to kill!"

He snatched the [Silver Cutting Dagger] from Leon's hand and stabbed his eyelids several times, but he failed to chop off even an eyelash. Director Scorpio couldn't help but exclaimed:
"What kind of abnormal object is this? It is immune to all damage, and even the Soul-Gnawing Doll has no effect on it? Did you rely on it to hold back the Nightmare King?"

"..."

"What's wrong? Why don't you speak?"

After hearing Director Scorpio's curious question, Leon, who was caught by a strange puppet with twenty pairs of arms, couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.

I just said some harsh words under the influence of alcohol, but I collapsed before I could even hold on for a minute. How can I have the face to say anything?
