stand-in creed

"Are there any other questions?"

"……the last one."

"Huh?"

Diablo raised his eyebrows.

Trish took a deep breath, and squeezed the words out of his teeth like a volcano about to erupt.

"Solit Nasso is your alias, right? So, what is your real name?"

Hearing Trish's question, Diablo fell into a brief thought.

But after thinking about it, since I have already appeared here, in front of Nero Zeppelin, and even the most important "appearance" is already known, then it is irrelevant to report my name again, right?

Thinking of this, Diablo spoke slowly.

"—Diablo."

"...Diavolo? What a name for you."

Trish took a deep breath, took a step forward with his left foot, and clenched his five index fingers into fists one by one.

next moment.

Accompanied by Trishul's sudden dash forward, the light pink stand-in suddenly appeared, raised his fist and blasted towards Diablo's face.

"If you're a demon, go back to hell——

"—Hot Girl!!!"

Chapter 92 The Secret Emperor Part Six

"—Hot Girl!!!"

Seemingly slender, the fists that had already reached the first echelon in terms of strength and speed roared toward Diablo's face in an instant.

The attack is getting closer.

There was no panic on Diablo's face, he just glanced at him and remained silent, as if he was going to leave the stage to Nero Zeppelin who was going to solve the father-daughter issue with Trish.At the same time, a red and white humanoid double with a small face on his forehead suddenly appeared behind Diablo.

"—The Crimson King."

Time starts to jump.

Diablo, who seemed to have entered another dimension, watched calmly as the hot girl threw punches at his position, but they couldn't hurt him a single bit as if they were punching in the air.Immediately afterwards, Diablo cast his gaze on Nero Zeppelin.

"Nero Zeppelin.

"Although you have been silent since just now, at first glance it seems that you can't intervene in the conversation between me and Trixie's "father and daughter", but in fact-you have no intention of talking to me at all.

"I am a drug dealer, and although you are not an anti-narcotics policeman, you, who are righteous, hate a drug dealer like me from the bottom of your heart. If it wasn't for Trixie who was walking with you, as early as the first time you saw me, you Then he launched an attack on me. And just now, when I was talking to Trish, I saw through the ability of "Epitaph"——

"The picture of your hands."

As early as when Diablo had a conversation with Trish, he activated the derivative ability of the substitute——

——Crimson King Epitaph.

- The ability to predict the future.

"I saw the future, a future that would have happened "if time hadn't been erased." .

"The moment Trixiu made a move, you manipulated the "sand" not only to cover my eyes, but also to pour sand into my ears, nostrils and mouth!It made me panic for a moment, and Trish punched me in the stomach.

"Those sands are the sands that your "Stairway to Heaven" has touched.

"Your stairway to heaven is hidden at this very moment in the sand beneath your feet, Nero Zeppelin! "

As Diablo saw it.

The wet sand suddenly seemed to come to life, accompanied by the hot girl's fists sneaking towards the position where Diablo was standing before, trying to assist the hot girl by attacking Diablo's seven orifices, and completed a one-hit kill.

All of this was seen by Diablo who had already left his position.

"Nero Zeppelin, you are really strong.

"Although my daughter, Trixie, has awakened a substitute, she has never fought a decent battle between substitute messengers so far. She is just an inexperienced rookie who is not even as good as the gangsters in various regions.

"You completely grasped Trixie's angry mood, and you calculated that Trixie would attack me impulsively under such circumstances. You didn't forcefully stop it, but took advantage of her anger and used the best Appropriate Method assisted Trish from the side, maximizing the advantage of "Hot Girl" as a close-range power stand.

"If I hadn't seen such a future, I would probably be dead."

Diablo said so, and came behind Nero.

The Crimson King raised his saber high and slashed fiercely at Nero's neck, and Diablo shouted loudly in the middle of the slash.

"But the victory belongs to me, Diablo! Let time mark it again——

"—The Crimson King!"

This is Diablo's forte.

Delete the time, and quickly come to the enemy's back during this time, and release the ability when launching an attack, giving the enemy a fatal blow.

This time is no exception.

Diablo seemed to have seen the bloody scene where Nero Zeppelin's body, which looked like an ancient Greek statue, was chopped into two lengthwise by the Crimson King.However, just as the attack was about to hit, Diablo's pupils suddenly shrank.

Nero moved.

The moment he released his ability, Nero Zeppelin actually moved.

As if seeing his attack, his feet slid like Michael Jackson's "moonwalk", and his body instantly slid forward to the left like a door being pushed open, narrowly avoiding the Crimson King's attack This hit.

"what?!"

Seeing this scene, Diablo's pupils suddenly shrank.

How can this be? !

At the same time, Nero, who was in sight, had already picked up Trish's waist and put it on his shoulders, rushing to a height of about ten meters.

It was also when Nero was flying in the air, but Diablo saw the Stairway to Heaven emerging from the sand under Nero's feet, facing himself, and flying with Nero.

"...so that's what happened.

"Your guy's "Stairway to Heaven" is a double with vision. When you face me, you use your double to hide quietly in the ground to observe every move behind you, and then get a close to "360-degree" perspective." .Then, the moment I appeared behind you, I immediately controlled your body to move and avoid my attack!

"What a speed of reflexes.

"Part of the quality of the body of the stand-in messenger is linked to the stand-in. If you have a stand-in that can easily catch bullets, then the body will also have dynamic vision and reaction nerves that can catch the trajectory of the bullet.

"From this point of view, your "Stairway to Heaven" also has the top speed!But the strength should be mediocre, otherwise your response should be a positive wrestling, not avoiding my attack.I've already determined that if I'm also a close-range strength type, the person who is more advantageous in melee combat is me, Diablo. "

Diablo said to Nero in the low sky.

Nero raised his eyebrows, and pointed to a few drops of blood on the beach: "You call this dodging? Your attack was clearly a hit, Diablo. Thanks to you, I ordered 2000 million lire His coat and shirt are all ruined."

At this moment, Trixie, who was carried on his shoulders, saw it.

Nero Zeppelin's clothes were torn longitudinally with a long opening, and a slender but not deep wound appeared on the skin inside, spilling a few drops of blood.

"Humph."

Diablo wasn't happy at all.

The same unhappy person, and Nero.

In the low sky, Nero carried Trish with his right hand, and pointed at Diablo with his left.

"Your abilities seem a little interesting."

"Um?!"

Diablo was taken aback.

So fast?

Has this guy already seen through the ability of the "Crimson King"?

Nero said seriously.

"Terry's position changed and my sand fell. Why?

"It's obvious that Trixie just raised his fist, and I'm just going to cooperate with Trixie's movement, cover your eyes with sand, and pour it into your ears, nose and throat, but why... I didn't feel the process at all, so I directly Saw this result.

"In addition, the attack method that suddenly disappeared and appeared behind me out of thin air is similar to that of Dio Brando back then! But your abilities are different. He has the ability of "Time Pause", while What I am experiencing at this moment is like watching a video, clicking the progress bar directly backwards and then "jumping frames"!

"I already understand, your guy's ability—"

Nero thought that Diablo might be very troublesome, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome.

After two years, Nero felt the feeling of "fear" again.

"——is the ability to [delete time]. "

Chapter 93 The Secret Emperor Part [-]

Diablo and Nero Zeppelin looked at each other.

Nero is in heaven.

Diablo is on the ground.

Diablo has no intention of showing off his derivative ability "Epitaph" to Nero at all. He knows very well that it is the key to his next victory.At this moment, Diablo just stared at Nero in mid-air, and spoke slowly.

"I remember this sentence in "The Godfather": People who can see the essence in a second and people who spend half their lives without seeing the essence of a thing clearly have different fates.

"And that's who you are, Nero Zeppelin. Your 'battle experience' makes you that!

"It's no wonder that both Risut's assassination team and my personal guards died in your hands. I finally realized that you are definitely not an opponent who can be solved by half-baked people. Your blessing, I also understand——

"This is my trial, Diablo.

"Only by defeating you and my childish self in the past can I grow up and become a real emperor."

Hearing Diablo's words, the aloof Nero raised his eyebrows.

He continued to carry Trish with his left hand, but his right hand crossed his waist, and he turned his head slightly to look down at Diablo.

"Do you think you can do it, Diablo?"

"What do you say, Nero Zeppelin?"

The voice fell.

The two men were silent, looking at each other.

At the same time, Trixie, who was carried on Nero's shoulder, watched the scene in silence, but his body trembled uncontrollably.

'This feeling...what the hell is going on?

'This sense of oppression as if the heart is being held tightly by someone, this heaviness as if someone is strangling the neck, is it the "murderous spirit" mentioned in novels or movies? !Just being here as a third party, I'm about to be overwhelmed by their murderous pressure! '

Trish's panting became heavier, and large drops of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Suzumi Sugimoto drifted out at this moment, gently holding Trish's hand: "Don't worry, Trish, just leave it to Nero."

"……Um."

Trish nodded slightly.

However, Diablo's eyes widened suddenly.

"Where did this woman come from?

"Floating behind Nero Zeppelin, could it be the ability of the "Stairway to Heaven"... No, judging from the incomplete battle records recorded in the past, Zeppelin's ability cannot be used on life , then what is this..."

Nero didn't care what Diablo was thinking.

Taking advantage of the appearance of Suzumi Sugimoto behind him, making Diablo's thoughts fluctuate, he made a bold move.

"—Golden Cutter!"

In an instant.

The golden cutter turned around at a high speed, passed through the rain curtain, and roared towards Diablo.

Diablo didn't change his face, but he thought quickly in his heart.

'Unseen ability.

"Maybe Chocolat and Seki have seen it, but they haven't had time to tell me the information they know. We must be cautious at this time."Normally speaking, the Crimson King can handle this kind of light water knife with just one punch, but the premise is that it is just an ordinary water knife.
