A Desperate Retreat
The Beast Titan crouched down, its massive body slumped, and scratched its head with its long, slender fingers. As the Fate Titan collapsed to the ground, the steam rising from its wounds thinned.
"You've reached your limit? That's strange. Haven't the Attack Titan already appeared? And what are you?" The Beast Titan was very puzzled by the suddenly appearing Fate Titan's identity.
There should only be nine Intelligent Titan. This suddenly appearing Titan clearly also possesses intelligence, but apart from the Founding Titan, shouldn't the other Titan Power already have hosts? Could it be the Jaw? But the Jaw's power shouldn't be like that.
"The ability to Hardening... no, it shouldn't be the power of the armor... could it be?" The Beast Titan suddenly had a thought.
The massive body moved, approaching the Fate Titan. Looking down at the Fate Titan, it coldly said, "You... you didn't steal the power of the Female Titan, did you?" But only silence answered it.
"Although the Female Titan Power has always been inherited by female warriors, there seems to be no saying that men cannot inherit the Female Titan Power. What, Annie, how could the Female Titan Power be taken away by an unknown nobody? That's surprising. Well then, let me take back the Female Titan Power." The Beast Titan muttered to itself for a long time, then stretched out its giant hand and went straight for the back of the Fate Titan's neck.
With a tearing sound, the muscles on the back of the neck were easily ripped apart by the Beast Titan's claws, revealing a figure wearing Survey Corps uniform.
The Beast Titan looked at the blue and white Wings of Freedom emblem and scratched his head again. "Huh? Wearing the same clothes as that Soldiers flying around?" The Beast Titan was taken aback.
Just as the Beast Titan was stunned, the figure suddenly moved, struggling to rise from its surrounding flesh and blood.
Even after breaking free of the shackles of flesh and blood, Yago's face still had muscles connecting it.
He ripped away the flesh from his face, raised his head, and looked up at the Beast Titan with a calm expression.
"Hello, War Chief Zeke." The Beast Titan looked at the Black Hair boy below, his dark eyes and handsome face bearing a slight smile, especially when he heard the boy speak calmly.
"What?!" The Beast Titan was utterly astonished, but the boy had already raised his arm. "It wasn't easy to lure you here. What a pity, you should have thrown a couple more boulders earlier; maybe it would have made me feel even more pain."
Blood streamed down his arm, sharp fingernails dug into his palm, and wisps of Yellow Lightning crackled across Yago's body.
"Damn it! What monster?!" The Beast Titan immediately realized it was a trap. In melee combat, the Beast Titan was not much stronger than a monkey, but there was no time to dodge. The Beast Titan gritted its teeth, roared, clenched its fist, and smashed it towards Yago, who was transforming.
Damn it! How could I have been so easily fooled! The Beast Titan was filled with remorse, as if all his usual caution had vanished just now.
Bang! Amidst the surging yellow lightning, a gigantic arm without skin blocked the Beast Titan's massive fist. Then, to the Beast Titan's astonishment, enormous flesh and bones materialized out of thin air, forming a colossal body.
The crimson eyes reappeared, and the mouth full of sharp teeth let out a terrifying roar, accompanied by a full-force punch from the Fate Titan.
With a snap, due to its height and posture, the Fate Titan's full-force punch pierced through the Beast Titan's chest.
The Beast Titan's massive body immediately lost its balance and was about to fall. "Whoosh!!" The falling Beast Titan suddenly gasped for breath, but what kind of nonsense was this? Did they think Yago was something special?
He shoved both hands into the Beast Titan's mouth, and the Beast Titan's voice abruptly stopped.
"Roar!" The Fate Titan roared to the sky, and with both hands, he tore along the upper and lower jaws of the Beast Titan, and half of the Beast Titan's head was flung off in a spinning motion.
"Get out here!!" Yago roared from inside the Titan's neck. The Fate Titan outside suddenly exerted its strength, pressing down on the Beast Titan's neck and tearing at it with all its might.
"Roar!" "Ah!!" The Beast Titan's nape, which it didn't have time to Hardening, was torn open by the Fate Titan, and a shirtless man emerged from the Beast Titan's nape with a wail.
With golden hair and a beard, and glasses perched on his nose, he looked like a learned teacher, but his muscular upper body revealed that this man was no weakling; he was Zeke Jaeger, the Marley Warriors captain, the Son of Astounding, who instilled fear in all Marley enemies with the Beast Titan.
However, the Zeke War Chief was in a sorry state, with half of his body exposed outside the Titan's body, panting heavily, looking completely exhausted. The burden of transforming twice was immense, and Yago only gained greater stamina after being strengthened by the Female Titan Power.
"War Chief Zeke, it's truly an honor." Since the Fate Titan n't speak, Yago silently thought to himself from the back of its neck.
On the horizon, the sun shone with its last rays, which fell on Zeke's glasses, causing the lenses to reflect sunlight and preventing Yago from seeing Zeke's expression.
"I really underestimated the Eldians on the island. But this isn't over yet."
Upon hearing Zeke's words, Yago frowned and immediately became alert. Without hesitation, the Fate Titan reached out to grab Zeke from the Beast Titan. Capturing Zeke alive was essential for both the Eldians on the island and Yago, who lacked understanding of the current world situation.
The powerful impact sent the Fate Titan flying backward, Yago, trapped in the back of its neck, could only curse, "Damn it! Here we go again?!" Thinking that it had stopped the Beast Titan from summoning Titan with its roar, Yago naturally relaxed its guard in the Forest.
The Fate Titan was sent flying backward, crashing into several giant trees. Struggling to his feet, he found himself facing a strange Titan with a long head, an odd posture with all four limbs on the ground, and a huge wooden box on his back.
"War Chief? Are you alright?" This Titan can actually speak human language?!
Yago, the "Cart Titan," saw the Titan's appearance clearly. Having seen Annie's memories, Yago naturally recognized the Titan's identity: it was a Marley Intelligent Titan, the Cart Titan.
However, what Yago found strange was that, in Annie's memory, there seemed to be a very beautiful Black Hair woman on the back of this ugly Titan's neck?
"Pieck, retreat first." Zeke barely managed to climb onto the Cart Titan's head. The Cart Titan turned and gave the Fate Titan a deep look. "Yes, War Chief!"
The Cart Titan was incredibly fast; Yago gave up after chasing it for a few hundred meters, by which time the Cart Titan had already run thousands of meters away.
With a hiss, the Fate Titan lowered its head, its nape splitting open, Yago emerged from the back of the Fate Titan's neck, his brows slightly furrowed.
The sound of Gas spraying filled his ears, Annie flew to Yago's side.
"I didn't expect the Cart Titan to come here. Marley really used all their power for the Founding Titan," Yago said.
Annie looked worried, while Yago smiled and said, "Although they got away, it wasn't all for naught. Zeke seems to think I stole your Female Titan Power, Annie."
Annie: "But if that happens, Yago, you'll become their target too."
Yago waved his hand dismissively, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
"But now, Eren's situation seems more dangerous."
