"Next, we can only issue arrest warrants for both Monster Number Eight and this person." Hoshina Soshiro has already submitted an arrest warrant application to the highest-ranking officer of the defense force, and it should be approved around this afternoon.

......

A desolate, abandoned factory in the southern suburbs of Yokohama.

"Although I don't know the composition or workings of this thing inside you, its resentment towards the monster is very real."

"Based on my observation, it won't have much of an effect on you. As long as you want to eliminate the monster, it can become your power."

Natsuki stood in front of Kafka Hibino and explained to him.

This thing exists in a very special form.

He had seen creatures made of resentment before.

However, the vengeful entity he knew was an invader called Yapool, which followed Ace wherever he went, driving Ace crazy and making him fight in increasingly wild ways.

Such a collection of resentment generated against monsters is extremely rare, and it is a symbiotic that only enhances power without any obvious cost. This is the first time Natsuki has ever seen one like it.

"You have just acquired this power, so you cannot control it yet. Without transforming, you are no different from an ordinary person."

"And what I'm going to train you on next is to let you master some of the transformation abilities."

Natsuki crossed her arms and spoke to Kafka in a methodical manner.

He is a professional when it comes to training younger soldiers, and he will provide different training programs for different soldiers.

However, the price is that every time I go to the training grounds of the Land of Light, I am surrounded by people.

Taro also suggested that he take over the position of chief instructor of the Space Garrison, but he refused and chose to go out and find the bastard who had parasitized him, and take on some easy missions to adjust his mindset.

Chapter 167 Wanted

"Partial transformation?"

"Is that really possible?"

Kafka stood up from his wheelchair, pondering Natsuki's words. He was now completely unaware of his own abilities.

"You give it a try first," Xia Shu said to him.

Kafka nodded blankly.

Thinking about partially transforming, he mustered his courage, black scales covered his body, and he instantly transformed into Monster Number Eight.

"No, it won't work. It's too difficult to control."

Kafka the monster looked down at his fully transformed body, a surge of power filling his entire being, but this power was still too difficult to control.

"That's normal, after all, you only gained this power last night."

"To master part of the transformation, you need to use this power more often, so that your senses and body are completely synchronized. Only in this way can you gradually become familiar with the power," Xia Shu patiently explained.

The ability to teach according to aptitude is a skill that a qualified senior should possess.

He's nothing like Seven's Babar. Using a Jeep to attack Leo could be somewhat understandable given the circumstances, but using it to attack me? I've made a mental note of that!

When I return to the Land of Light, there will definitely be no more "Your Good Juice" for me.

"Then... what should I do?" Kafka asked, clenching his fist.

He claims to be using his power... but there are no monsters for him to fight right now.

“It’s simple, I’ll be your sparring partner,” Xia Shu said.

"There's no need to worry. This area is very remote and won't attract outsiders."

Upon hearing this, Kafka's eyes widened.

"Is...this really okay?"

“If I attack with all my might, Mr. Natsuki might get injured.”

The monster was blown to pieces with a single punch; if it had hit a person, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

He knew that Mr. Natsuki also possessed mysterious powers, but he wasn't sure if the other party could withstand his full-force punch.

“If you can hurt me, it only proves that I am an unqualified teacher,” Xia Shu said. “Just do as I say.”

Since she had promised to help Kafka, Natsuki would naturally teach him with all her heart.

"First, familiarize yourself with your strength through sparring with me, then try to master some of the transformations, and then the transformation that hides your physical characteristics."

"If everything passes, joining the defense force will definitely not be a problem."

Upon hearing Natsuki's promise, Kafka's fighting spirit was instantly ignited.

I'm so lucky to have met this gentleman.

"Thank you so much!"

Kafka said excitedly that joining the defense force had always been his dream.

"No need for thanks. Just warm up a bit, then attack me," Xia Shu said, waving his hand. He also wanted to see what Kafka would be like after he grew up.

"Also, Ichikawa, you shouldn't be idle either."

"Starting from the factory side, go full speed ahead for ten kilometers and get ready to start." As he spoke, he turned to look at Ichikawa Reino, who was listening nearby.

This is also a promising young talent.

"Huh? Ten kilometers per hour at full speed!?" Hearing that he had to run 10,000 meters in one go, Ichikawa Reino's eyes widened. "My muscles will dissolve...!"

If it's a slow run like a marathon, this training volume isn't considered high.

However, his body certainly couldn't withstand running the entire course at full sprint speed.

“It’s okay. I’ll provide treatment for you when you can’t hold on any longer,” Xia Shu explained.

After that, his gaze toward Ichikawa Reno became serious.

"And...do you think ordinary training will allow you to catch up with Kafka?"

"Did you join the defense force to become a foil for Kafka, or to fulfill your duties as a member of the defense force through your own strength?"

Faced with this question, Ichikawa Reno slowly lowered his head.

As an ordinary person, I am not like my predecessors who can transform into monsters, and I do not possess power far beyond imagination.

However, he absolutely did not want to be just a supporting character.

The two joined the defense force together, so naturally they had to fight side by side.

His fist gradually clenched, he raised his head, and said firmly, "I understand, Mr. Natsuki!"

"I will double my efforts... no, I will work my ass off!"

He also knew that he was presented with an opportunity he would cherish immensely.

If I truly succeed in Mr. Natsuki's training, I will definitely be able to far surpass my current self.

"Very good. In the training to come, always keep this determination in mind." Xia Shu patted his shoulder and pointed in the direction behind him.

"Warm up for three minutes, then start running!"

"Yes!" Ichikawa Reno nodded decisively and began warming up.

And after he ran away.

Natsuki turned around and looked at the monster Kafka, who was already prepared.

The main event is about to begin.

"Now, attack me with all your might. I need to assess your current level." He adjusted his stance, assuming a defensive posture, and let Kafka launch a full-scale attack.

Kafka the Monster nodded.

Then, clenching his fists, his entire black body tensed, and with a powerful leap, he charged towards Xia Shu with a "bang," cracking the ground.

The fist and arm swelled up, and two holes even appeared in the elbow to support the attack, bursting out like flames from a propulsion unit, doubling the power of the blow!

A powerful and heavy blow came toward Xia Shu. Although it was as fast as lightning, it was still traceable in Xia Shu's eyes. He slightly used energy to attach to his arms and crossed them in front of his chest, firmly blocking this terrifying blow.

The ground beneath his feet instantly cracked and caved in, sending earth and rocks flying into the air. With a loud bang, a huge crater was formed, and dust billowed up.

The abandoned factories nearby collapsed due to the aftershocks of the attack.

"This...this power is terrifying."

Reno Ichikawa, who was sprinting, turned around upon hearing the sound and was shocked by the force of the blow.

"Mr. Natsuki... are you really alright?"

He was somewhat worried.

But a voice suddenly rang in his mind, breaking his worries: "Don't stop, keep running!"

After the smoke cleared, Xia Shu's wildly swinging floral shirt gradually calmed down, and her crossed arms, which had been in defensive stance, were lowered, revealing no injuries.

"Not bad, better than I expected."

Kafka withdrew his fist and was shocked to hear what Natsuki said. He had withstood the blow... and was completely unharmed.

Sure enough, I found the right person!

......

Training continues.

But in the afternoon, at a sushi restaurant.

"This...this...the person who came to eat yesterday was actually a wanted criminal!"

The shop owner, wearing an apron, was so startled by the news broadcast on TV that he dropped the sushi he was holding on the ground.

To avoid causing panic, the defense force specifically launched separate manhunts for Monster No. 8 and an unregistered person on two different channels at different times to prevent citizens from associating them together.

Chapter 168 Come with me

"Ugh... I feel like my body is going to fall apart..."

"Me too, I'm so tired... I'm feeling a bit dizzy."

After a morning and an afternoon of training, Kafka Hibino and Reno Ichikawa clearly felt the intensity of the training and why they had to be prepared before training began.
