[Boom boom boom boom—]
The battle between Red-Haired Garou and 'Watchdog Man' Aite was still raging in the southern outskirts of Q-City.
Surging tornadoes erupted without end, while deafening booms rose and fell in succession.
Every clash of fists and feet briefly evacuated the surrounding air.
Visible shockwaves vented wildly, shattering vast stretches of ground in their path.
Unable to intervene, Jiwei, Mata, and the many Justice Enforcers could only retreat again and again.
"Aite can't take him down!"
Jiwei's face turned ashen.
At the same time, he felt unwilling and furious at his own inability to help.
Whenever they encountered a powerful enemy, he could only watch as Aite fought alone.
But Police Man and Watchdog Man were supposed to fight side by side.
[Bang!]
A heavy muffled impact rang out, and a blast of air exploded.
Garou and Aite were both knocked backward as they adjusted their ragged breathing.
"What a troublesome dog. Taking him down will take quite a while. But if other S-Class heroes arrive, that'll be a problem."
With crimson hair and a bloodshot right eye, Garou panted heavily, buying his body precious recovery time as he considered his next move.
"Now! Don't let him rest!" Jiwei realized the same thing.
He had to force Garou to keep fighting and give Aite more time to catch his breath.
The surrounding Justice Enforcers raised their electromagnetic pistols and fired highly lethal rounds.
Garou immediately used his specialty, the Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist. Curving blue light flowed between his fingers and deflected every bullet.
It had to be said, the movements were truly stylish, somewhat like the absolute defense of the Hyuga Gentle Fist.
"Soru!"
"Shigan: Droplet Ripple Piercing Strike!"
Jiwei, dressed in a police uniform, seized the chance to instantly close the distance.
