I Think There's Been a Misunderstanding Between Us. How About We Sit Down and Talk?

Watching them start fighting without saying a word, Luo Ye ground his teeth in irritation. They were really fighting already? They really weren't taking him seriously, treating him like he didn't exist? Then he would just have to make his presence known!

Just as Luo Ye was about to charge in with Senbonzakura, a small figure moved even faster than he did.

Countless Nen threads crisscrossed into the shape of a spiderweb. Though it looked as if it might fall apart at any moment, it still firmly blocked Uvogin's fist.

Using a Nen ability that far exceeded her own Nen reserves in an instant made Machi's face turn pale, yet she still stood firmly in front of Feitan.

Ever since she was little, she had known that, as a girl, she was weaker than boys. If she wanted to survive in the cannibalistic place that was Meteor City, she had to band together with others for warmth.

Feitan and the others were companions she had struggled to find. Since they were companions, she had to prove her worth. Useless people were abandoned.

She hadn't done well enough in her previous battle against Rasa. This time, she had to do better. So even though she was pushing herself past her limits, she still had to come out and stop Uvogin's fist.

Seeing Machi act even faster than he had, Luo Ye was stunned for a moment. He had never seen Machi this powerful before. Why had her potential suddenly exploded?

Could it be that Machi liked Feitan? Had the power of love suddenly unleashed her potential?

While Luo Ye's thoughts ran wild, he cast Kido at Uvogin.

Machi alone was no match for Uvogin. Her pale face made that obvious, so Luo Ye had to help her—and himself as well.

"Way of Destruction No. 4—White Lightning!" A white beam shot from Luo Ye's fingertips, flying straight at Uvogin.

Seeing the flash, Uvogin glanced at it curiously. "What the hell is this? Ah!"

There was no fluctuation of Nen from it. Uvogin thought his Ken could withstand it, so he did not dodge.

But he quickly paid the price for that contempt.

Uvogin's entire body convulsed as though he had been electrocuted, shaking like he was having a seizure. Every hair on his head stood on end, his eyes widened, and his body went rigid.

"Even without Nen, he can actually break through Uvogin's Ken?" Nobunaga froze briefly at Uvogin's condition, then looked at Luo Ye with a rare trace of wariness in his eyes. "Not bad, kid."

He had completely misjudged him. This kid who could not use Nen was far more troublesome than the one who could.

An ability like lightning was difficult to defend against.

"There's something even stronger." Luo Ye lifted his gaze proudly. "Take another one—Way of Destruction No. 11—Linked Lightning!"

Since he had already chosen lightning, he might as well keep using it. If he used Sōkatsui instead, with so much stuff in Meteor City, starting a fire would be troublesome.

White lightning shot toward the still-rigid Uvogin. Nobunaga frowned and tried to step forward to help, but Feitan held him back.

Feitan's cold gaze was piercing. "You want to leave now? Did I say you could?"

The initiative had completely reversed. Now it was Nobunaga who was desperate to break free from Feitan's entanglement.

Nobunaga could not get away, and Uvogin was still rigid. Just as Uvogin was about to take another lightning strike, a rippling barrier like water suddenly unfolded before him, blocking Luo Ye's attack.

In the direction the power came from, a little boy with a cross tattooed on his forehead, black hair, and black eyes raised the book in his hand. His smile was confident and composed. "I think there's been a misunderstanding between us. How about we sit down and talk?"
