Shinji Ikari, the pilot of Unit-01 during the Spirit Awakening Era

Hey... Americans have so much experience in messing with Tokyoites.

Misato Katsuragi frowned slightly. "I think you're tired too. Take her to a standard room to rest." She naturally understood what Ritsuko Akagi meant; the woman in front of her practically had "confidence" written all over her face! Indeed, those Japanese government officials in New Tokyo who hadn't yet recovered from the Mutiny could only swallow their anger.

But these two young men in front of us are not these bureaucrats!

"Ah! Babem's lackeys!" The once elegant and noble Winged God Shion now resembled the chosen one of Khorne, chasing after Vamilians at high speed. Her lightsaber relentlessly slashed them down, and she even grabbed one Vamilian, blasting it into rags with a series of heavy blows. Then, with a frenzied effort, she tore one Vamilian in two, spraying blood everywhere.

"Miri!" Shinji Ikari smirked as he watched Sene the Winged God chasing Vamilian around in mid-air. "It's time to hunt crows. Let me try out the engineering department's homemade toys!"

"Alright! The weapon cabinet is being transferred. Be careful not to expand the battlefield!" Misato Katsuragi agreed to Shinji Ikari's request without hesitation. Unit-01 did not have the ability to fly, but that did not mean it lacked the ability to fight against air. "Also, Rei and the others, your standby time is over! Ten minutes are up! Tokyo-3 should awaken! Raise your weapons and support Unit-01!"

"Hi!" In the buildings of Tokyo-3, Unit-00, whose figure was concealed by an armored building, had a smile on Rei Ayanami's face that was very similar to Shinji Ikari's. In a sense, she had also experienced Reach.

One of the Vamilians was about to make an emergency hover in mid-air, just like before, and raise its gun to fire at the Winged God Seine that was chasing another Vamilian. But in the next instant, a bullet pierced its chest, and the cockpit was turned into a mass of minced meat wrapped in steel.

A Valmilion on the side turned around in horror, only to find that countless points of light were rising from the ground behind it. Although their weapons could fire bullets at extremely high rates to form a barrage, even if multiple Valmilions fired at once, they could still dodge it.

At this moment, what appeared before the pilot of the Valmilion was a truly inescapable barrage of bullets! A deluge of bullets swept over like a tsunami! No blind spots, no gaps! After trying his best to dodge a few times, he was hit by a series of bullets. The gun in his hand and the arm holding it were instantly shattered, followed by his body.

The Babem Consortium's expensively constructed outer armor prevented the Valmillion from being immediately shattered, but the flames from its explosions were almost constant. In just a few seconds, the outer armor shattered, and the pilot in the cockpit watched in horror—no, he actually felt the barrage of bullets exploding on his body! The shattered Valmillion crashed to the ground.

"Neither TERRA nor the Babem Foundation has figured out one thing." Helena, waiting for the elevator, smoothed her long hair and smiled. The NERV headquarters in Hakone, Japan, located in Tokyo-3, was a war fortress that could make any attacker despair, a treatment that other NERV branches never received. And was this terrifying firepower really intended for the Angels? Or for humanity itself?

And this was just the beginning. The automatic artillery barrage on the hillside had already slowly risen, with the muzzles automatically pointing at the Babem family's Valmillion in the sky. If Winged God Shion hadn't been entangled with them, these Valmillions might have been experiencing the justice of large calibers by now!

"What a reckless move!" Shinji Ikari muttered as Unit-01 took out several javelins from the weapon cabinet. Undoubtedly, such terrifying firepower basically covered Sion the Winged God as well. Only after Shinji's warning did Sion the Winged God manage to escape from the area of ​​effect.

Judging from the current situation, it won't be long before the Babem Consortium's Valmillions will face a very real problem: they must retreat! Otherwise, they will be completely wiped out here! Although Valmillions are mass-producible machines, they are not items that can be consumed at will.

Now, what Shinji Ikari needs to do is further increase Vamilian's losses! Make that damned Barbem Foundation pay an even higher price!

Unit-01 took a few steps back, then charged forward in a standard javelin-throwing stance. The only difference was that the moment the javelin was thrown, it triggered a terrifying air explosion. The specially designed javelin pierced through the body of a Vamilian one after another, causing the Vamilian to immediately lose power and plummet to the ground (in the TV version of Unit-00, the Spear of Longinus was thrown directly out of the atmosphere).

"Hmm... a clever child is endearing! Cease the bombardment, this is our precious gift!" Ritsuko Akagi nodded. Shinji, that guy, has a very steady hand. Apart from killing the enemy pilot and damaging the enemy's limbs and flight equipment, he hardly caused any damage...

"Hmph! The remaining two units probably won't be needed..." Just as Katsuragi Misato was about to say something, Ibuki Maya, who was standing next to her, reported another situation.

"Four Vamilians are approaching, and the identification information belongs to TERRA! They are stationed outside the area of ​​Third New Tokyo City," Ibuki Maya said quickly, as four dots of light hovered in the distance on the topographic map.

"A communication request from the other party!" Hyuga Makoto turned his head to look at Akagi Ritsuko and Katsuragi Misato, who were currently in charge.

“Connect!” Ritsuko Akagi shrugged, and Misato Katsuragi nodded.

"This is Elfi Hardiat of TERRA, requesting to speak with the head of NERV headquarters." A skilled female pilot who had once worked with Shinji Ikari appeared on the video. She was clearly the captain of this Vamilian, and as she spoke, the corner of her eye twitched violently.

Because she clearly saw that a Vamilian flying at low altitude, trying to dodge Shinji Ikari's javelin, was beheaded by the rapidly descending Sion of the Winged God with a single sword strike. And that wasn't all; under Ayato Kamina's control, Sion of the Winged God's second sword pierced through the chest of the headless Vamilian without hesitation.

Yes, it was murder!

After all that happened last night, Winged God Shion slowly turned his neck and stared straight at the four of them! In that instant, the four members of the TERRA team swallowed hard, fear instantly filling their hearts.

"Is there anything you want to say?" Misato Katsuragi and the others, who had also witnessed this scene, interrupted their panic. "Don't tell me that you in TERRA still don't know anything."

"...We want to take Ayato Kamina and Sion Winged Goddess away. This is registered with TERRA..." After a moment of silence, Elfi Hardiat was not clear about the specifics of what had happened. TERRA only knew that Sion Winged Goddess, who had suddenly disappeared, appeared on the outskirts of Tokyo-3, fought against Unit-01, and then fought against Vamilian, who had arrived from the Babem Foundation.

So now she could only say in a consultative tone that the four of them, if they had just glanced at the battlefield on the outskirts of Third New Tokyo City, plus the barrage of bullets that erupted like a volcano just now, they would have seen it all. When she said this, she really didn't have much confidence.

"Go ahead, if you can manage it." Misato Katsuragi shrugged. If you can take them, then take them. She didn't want Unit-01 and RahXe Pro to fight a second round now, and obviously, Shinji Ikari didn't want to fight either.

Of course, all of this is predicated on them having the ability! Do they? Ayato Kamina is no ordinary student who can't even kill a chicken.

"Ayato...come back with us."

"Going back and being locked up by you guys, then holding me responsible?! Hypocritical bastards... Shinji! Sorry for the trouble! Goodbye!"

"Take care of yourself……"

My laptop inexplicably broke down and still hasn't turned on. It either keeps spinning or goes straight to the blue screen. It's driving me crazy! It's been acting strangely ever since I got back to my hometown. I don't know why. I'm not going to bother with it anymore. I'm going to sleep now. I'll drive back to Hangzhou early tomorrow morning, and I'll start writing as soon as I get home. I guess I really need a desktop computer.

The Spring Festival was so busy! There were so many things to do every day, and I even lost weight! I need to go back home and fatten myself up.

Chapter 368 From Today On, He Is the Enemy

"Ayato!" As Elfi Hardiat watched the black Ride-X Sion rapidly ascend, the pilots of the Vmillion glanced at Unit-8 on the ground. To be honest, just as they began to approach Tokyo-9, they saw eight or nine Vmillions belonging to the Barbem Foundation being shot down by EVA and Ride-X Sion within ten seconds.

If the disappearance of the dots on the radar screen wasn't exciting enough, they had just witnessed the boy, now unleashing his killing intent, catch up with a Vamilian that was fleeing madly, and send it flying with a swift stroke of his blade.

The four TERRA units were too numerous for the four of them to even attempt. The likely outcome was that Ayato Kamina, currently consumed by rage, wouldn't be willing to talk to them politely. He could easily kill them all with a single blow. Whether they could even hold off Ayato for a minute depended on his mood. Therefore, they could only hope that NERV's Unit-01 would step in and block Yōne Ryūgen for them.

"You'd better not do anything stupid, because the Babem Foundation, which operates under the TERRA name, killed Ayato Kamina's girlfriend whom he brought from Tokyo... and then tried to forcibly kidnap Ayato Kamina back to be punished. You shouldn't have misunderstood what 'punishment' means, right?" A Babem Foundation Valmillion, which had been severely damaged, seemed to be trying to struggle, but was then trampled into the dust by Shinji Ikari.

Unit-01, holding a javelin, slowly and deliberately thrust it into the gap in the back armor plate of its opponent in an execution-like posture. Slowly, bit by bit, it pierced through the cockpit. With a final, vicious thrust, Vamilian's blood sprayed directly onto Unit-01's body. However, this only added a touch of crimson to Unit-01, which was already darkened by the previous battle.

“But…aren’t you going to do anything about it? He’s already…” Elfi Hardiat looked conflicted, wanting to say something. She looked up at Winged Goddess Seine as she left. Because the incident hadn’t happened to her, and her relationship with Ayato Kamina hadn’t been that good to begin with, it was hard for her to empathize with the kind of mental trauma that Ayato Kamina’s experience had brought to this ordinary boy.

"Enough!" With Shinji Ikari's angry shout, Unit-01 looked up at the four Vamilians belonging to TERRA in the sky. "If you do anything to anger me... the order to attack TERRA has already been given. As for Sion and Ayato Kamina... I hope we won't be enemies when we meet again."

Shinji Ikari's tone then turned extremely hostile, "Take your failures and damned information and go back to those Riddlers!" Unit-01 stomped on the corpse of Vamilian beneath its feet, crushing it. "Congratulations on turning a guardian who was originally on humanity's side into a cataclysmic disaster! I hope you Terra aren't wronged when Babem throws you out as scapegoats! And don't expect NERV to be your shield! I tried to stop all of this from happening, and then I saw what you bunch of bastards did! Now, get out!"

"..." Elfi Hardiat fell silent for a moment. It wasn't news that Shinji Ikari and Ayato Kamina had a good relationship. In fact, Ayato Kamina's personality was influenced by Shinji Ikari to some extent. Moreover, it was Shinji Ikari who helped her make arrangements to go to the Genkai Dojo. Winged God Seine's combat power had indeed been increasing by leaps and bounds after Ayato Kamina received training.

Therefore, Shinji Ikari's statement was not surprising at all. Even Elf Hardiat did not doubt that if they said anything more, Unit-01, holding the javelin, would not just continue to weigh the javelin in its hand. In the next instant, it would tear through the air and impale them, pinning them to the ground!

"...Yes, I understand. Retreat! Leave the rest to the bigwigs up there." Elfi Hardiat was silent for a moment, but by this time, TERRA at the rear had recovered a little from the shock of receiving the detailed report from NERV and immediately recalled their own Valmillion squad.

When this belated intelligence reached TERRA, the entire TERRA command was in an uproar. They never imagined things would develop to this point! While it's true that TERRA had many concerns, ultimately, most of them didn't harbor much ill will towards Ayato Kamina…

Especially Haruka Shito, after seeing the intelligence, he was almost driven mad. Ayato Kamina's girlfriend was killed in front of him, and by someone using the name of TERRA's intelligence department. As the official intelligence department of TERRA, Haruka Shito felt his heart completely collapse.

Having already deeply offended Yonex, regardless of TERRA's explanations, the initial capture of Ayato Kamina was indeed carried out by TERRA's intelligence department, and the subsequent actions by the Babem Foundation were also conducted under TERRA's name. TERRA is destined to bear the blame! In a sense, this is also a consequence of TERRA's long-term acceptance of support from the Babem Foundation! NERV has already been infiltrated by SEELE to this extent; what will Babem's infiltration of TERRA look like?

So, Ayato Kamina's hatred for Babem is primary, and TERRA is definitely secondary. Shinji Ikari, who just fought him, probably won't even be on the list! So here's the question: would Ayato Kamina, as a young man, rationally discuss the pros and cons and explain the cause and effect with them? Impossible! Even a fool could guess that after their first encounter, Ayato Kamina's only action would be to smash those TERRA bastards to death with his fists.

Thus, Unit-01, the only unit capable of suppressing or even defeating Ride God Sion, instantly became their only hope for rescue. After all, Terra didn't have a fortified city like Neo Tokyo to provide a safety net. If NERV delayed even slightly, they could basically be collecting their corpses. So, faced with Shinji Ikari's overwhelming power, they had absolutely no choice!

Anyone could tell that Shinji Ikari was also in a bad mood. There was no need to ask why; he was stronger than Ayato Kamina, and compared to Ayato Kamina, who was a young man who had only recently come out of the greenhouse... Shinji Ikari, with his extensive experience of life and death, was clearly a more determined and troublesome opponent.

“Shinji…” Watching the four Vamilians belonging to TERRA disappear into the distance, Misato Katsuragi’s lips twitched. Ritsuko Akagi had just run off without saying goodbye, probably already off to check on the almost intact Vamilian that Shinji had shot down, leaving her here to clean up this mess.

“I understand. The nearest recovery elevator is here. Unit-01 is in very stable condition.” Shinji Ikari narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and the ground trembled slightly for a moment. If anyone was at the scene, or if there were any working cameras nearby, they would have noticed that the dust and gravel around Unit-01 strangely stopped and floated up. “Whoosh…” With Shinji Ikari’s exhale, all of this fell to the ground.

"The elevator is nearby, it's marked." Misato Katsuragi nodded to Makoto Hyuga beside her, and Makoto Hyuga quickly replied.

“Understood. I’ll go back now. Oh, right…” Shinji Ikari paused for a moment, but still spoke up, “Report it to the authorities. Yonex Winged Goddess… From today onwards, she’s a high-risk target. Unless a girl can redeem that bastard… I’m hopeless! Barbem… Hmph! I wish them good luck from today onwards.” Shinji sat in the cockpit with a wry smile, then sensed some unusual soul fluctuations. He realized that it was probably his mother who had taken time out of her busy schedule to comfort him.

Why is it described as extremely busy? This time, Kurosawa Ayase laminated her photo, allowing Shinji Ikari to insert it into the insertion plug. After being inserted... Kurosawa Ayase is currently chatting enthusiastically with Yui Ikari in a very refined and elegant manner. Yui, who has already learned about Kurosawa Ayase's situation from Shinji's adopted sister Himuro Kirie, is pretending to know nothing and happily chatting with her future wife. The joyful energy between the two is completely at odds with Shinji's furious state.

At one point, Yui even felt that Shinji Ikari's behavior in front of Ayase Kurosawa when he was enraged was too ferocious, which was not a good sign and would frighten her. She was about to talk to Ayase Kurosawa about how Shinji was not usually like this (Shinji: Mom, do you have some kind of... illusion about the fierce god?), when she noticed that Ayase Kurosawa was looking at the departing Vamilians with an unfriendly gaze and a slight fluctuation of power on her body. Suddenly realizing something, she smiled and remained silent. A good wife is not necessarily a virtuous wife at home.

“…Actually, we didn’t have to do this. TERRA would definitely report this situation.” Misato Katsuragi sighed. Although there was nothing wrong with what Shinji Ikari said, Misato could feel the deep pain in Shinji’s heart.

"No, we can tell the truth, instead of TERRA's evasive approach, especially since we were attacked by combat mechs bearing TERRA's name. How can we not demand an explanation?!" Shinji Ikari said resolutely, without the slightest hesitation. "This is the last thing I can do for Ayato Kamina. He's insane; at least we can't let people think he was insane from the start!"

"The truth?" Misato Katsuragi shook her head. This was indeed the last thing Shinji Ikari could do. As one of the parties involved in the battle, and since Shinji Ikari was the one who directly covered Ayato Kamina's hiding place, the truth they revealed was highly credible. Neither the Babem Foundation nor TERRA could easily refute them.

"Yes, I've arrived. Unit-01 is now in your hands." Under Shinji Ikari's control, Unit-01 knelt down on the elevator platform on the deck, then slightly lowered its head. The armor plate behind the insertion plug rose, the insertion plug popped out, and LCL fluid began to drain. Shinji Ikari waved behind him.

"Understood. Whatever you're going to do, hurry up. Do you need transportation?" Misato Katsuragi naturally understood what Shinji Ikari wanted to do, but this time, she had no intention of trying to dissuade him. These people deserved to die! As for whether they would hurt Shinji, she wasn't worried at all.

"Hmm, no need. I'm just going to see if I can do anything for Ayato Kamina in the end." Shinji Ikari shook his head. It had been quite a while, and Shinji wasn't sure if Asahina's soul could be preserved. Normally, unless there's an exceptionally strong obsession, the soul of the dead can't exist in nature for very long. If it could be preserved, it would truly be the last hope for the human world.

Okay! Good luck!

"Looks like my luck... isn't too bad!" As a gate opened, a white-haired man looked around at his surroundings, his face covered in black and gray marks, and filled with the ecstatic joy of surviving a disaster!

Yes, Shinichi Isshiki didn't die. The moment he realized something was wrong, he rushed into the safe house at the evacuation point. Just as he rushed in and closed the gate, the Winged Goddess's frenzied bombardment crashed down on the ground. Although it flattened the entire building in an instant, the safe house built by Shinji Ikari saved his life...

“Yes…we were lucky enough!” With a ferocious expression, Mei Isayama punched him and sent him flying. “I came in a hurry, and the grave I just dug is really lacking in offerings!” Mei Isayama, who had been told the whole story by Shinji Ikari, was now full of anger. Although she and Ayato Kamina were not very close, they were still friends. She had originally made an appointment with Shinji Ikari in a few days to come and see this brave man who had escaped with his sister.

So you just killed his girlfriend?

Good guy!

"Pfft... An exorcist... Who do you think you are!?" Isshiki rolled twice on the ground, the intense pain making him feel like he was about to die, but he still stubbornly said, "The Babem Foundation will send another wave of personnel soon, you... and that Shinji Ikari! Do you think you can still survive?"

"At least I can guarantee to offer sacrifices to Ayato's girlfriend tonight!"

"Are you crazy? For a Mu clan member?"

"They'd slaughter a pig as an offering for her! So what?!"

Chapter 369 The Fiend God Gets a Little Serious

"You can't kill me!" Isshiki Makoto looked at Shinji Ikari and Mei Isayama in horror. Mei Isayama did not kill Isshiki Makoto immediately, but broke his limbs and pressed him down in front of Hiroko Asahina's corpse until Shinji Ikari arrived.

"I'll go get a shovel, can you lend a hand?" Shinji Ikari completely ignored Isshiki Makoto's shouts and immediately began digging the resting place for Hiroko Asahina. Perhaps because of the special circumstances of the Mu clan's life, when Mei Isayama arrived, he did not find Hiroko Asahina's soul.

Shinji Ikari wasn't surprised by this situation. After all, the battle between Shinji and Ayato Kamina, the earth-shattering clash between the two giant robots, was enough to destroy the world, even though the riverbank was only the edge of the battlefield. It was a miracle that Hiroko Asahina's body remained intact; there was really no hope of finding her soul.

So after searching for a while, when Shinji Ikari arrived, the two of them immediately began digging a grave to bury the girl who had died unexpectedly. Of course, to prevent anyone from digging up the girl's grave, Shinji Ikari planned to have Kirie cast a curse on the area to see how many people would want to commit suicide.

"I'm telling you, the MU race is fighting with humans for the future! If you knew the state of the people in Tokyo, they're basically hypnotized, living zombies! Then..." Isshiki struggled, shouting loudly, trying to say something.

Shinji Ikari and Mei Isayama completely ignored him. The two of them simply and carefully placed Hiroko Asahina into the grave they had just dug in the remaining woodland. They quickly tidied up her disguise, placed her hands on her lower abdomen, and then began to cover her with soil.

"Hmm?" Isshiki watched the two's actions, fear increasingly taking hold of his heart. He had tried every method to break free. After all, as a high-ranking member of the Babem Foundation, he had many things he could use, such as the emergency rescue device on his chest.

But now it seemed unnecessary to use that thing. A sinister smile crept across his face. Yes, the Barbem Foundation's hunter private army had arrived nearby! He saw the faint flash of light signaling that they were ready to rescue him!

This time, although he unexpectedly failed and Ayato Kamina escaped from his grasp, and Yūgen Shinon went berserk and escaped from the hands of those useless TERRA, he was clearly about to face the corporate group's accountability. If he did nothing, he would lose all the power he currently held, which was obviously something he could not accept.

"Hehehe... Hahaha!" Isshiki laughed wildly. Yes, that was probably how it was originally going to be. Helena, who had lost most of her power to him, might have regained power, and he would have lost everything in a sorry state!

And all of that! Now it's completely impossible! I'm so glad I made that one wrong decision back then, placing my most elite Babem Foundation hunter private army in Tokyo-3 to intercept any potential NERV interception forces! This would have been my trump card, a trump card that could change the course of the game!

That's right, he unexpectedly lost Ayato Kamina and Sone Winged God! So how about Shinji Ikari? NERV's greatest masterpiece! He's undoubtedly more than qualified to replace that half-finished waste! Yes, various forces have never stopped analyzing information about Shinji Ikari.

After all, Shinji Ikari, both personally and when piloting EVA Unit-01, demonstrated terrifying combat power and growth potential, a fact that almost everyone had to acknowledge as shocking! Shinji Ikari is not even 16 years old this year! He possesses S-class combat power! When piloting Unit-01, he displayed absolute dominance.

All of this combined to reveal that Shinji Ikari is the child of Gendo Ikari, the supposed Commander-in-Chief of NERV, and Yui Ikari, a key figure in the EVA project! The Babem Foundation arrived at a slightly outlandish conclusion, which, upon closer examination, seemed quite reasonable: Shinji Ikari is a specially modified and customized "artificial human"! A sub-project within the EVA program! Only this could explain why Shinji himself was special! And why the relationship between his father, Gendo Ikari, and Shinji was so terrible!

As a high-ranking member of the Babem Foundation, he knew some of the truth about the "Human Instrumentality Project," even though he had mocked SEELE for only having so much ability and vision! However, the Babem Foundation was also somewhat interested in this project; otherwise, how could they have controlled the American branch and overseen the creation of EVA? They knew a thing or two about the secrets of EVA!

So if Isshiki can successfully capture Shinji Ikari and return him, unraveling the mystery surrounding him, then...

Just imagining this scenario made Isshiki almost unable to contain his ecstatic joy! He wanted to completely crush Shinji Ikari and that madwoman who had broken his limbs! He would send them to the most insane experimental table, personally overseeing these plans and watching them wail, suffer, and break down on the experimental table!

"Is this guy crazy?" Shinji Ikari glanced at Isshiki Shin, simply patted the ground firmly, and then dragged some broken branches and leaves from the side to cover the ground, obscuring the graveyard. Not to mention whether others could find it later, they probably wouldn't be able to find it after a while either!

"He probably thinks he's going to win again." Izayama Mei glanced into the distance and sneered. "But isn't this perfect? ​​I was worried we didn't have enough offerings..." Izayama Mei's lips curled up. "So let's finish this battle quickly; staying up late isn't good for your skin." Izayama Mei's demonic power immediately erupted on a large scale. She had endured long enough tonight! The dragon blood flowing through her veins was already reminding her that some scores shouldn't be left unresolved overnight.

"Ah... I don't want to stay any longer! Kill these guys!" Shinji Ikari immediately agreed with Mei Isayama's idea. The only thing Shinji wanted to do right now was to kill these guys directly. For Shinji, the series of battles since the Tokyo Incident had left him somewhat physically and mentally exhausted. These Babem guys didn't deserve any sympathy.

The carnage suddenly erupted in the darkness! The roar of machine guns, the hiss of flamethrowers, the thunderous rumble of thunder, and the dull thuds of impacts all burst forth in the night! Then, they abruptly ceased.

"Huh?!" Isshiki, barely managing to sit up, looked around. No one came forward to report to him. The hunter squads should have reported back after completing their missions, but... where were they? "Come out! Report the situation!"

"Look... this guy still hasn't figured out his state." The half-demon Mei Isayama was slowly dissipating from her battle state, but the smoke, the bullets that kept falling from the gaps in her scales, and the blood dripping from her body all indicated how intense the battle she had just experienced was.

“Ignorant arrogance is nothing but foolishness.” Shinji Ikari also came out, dragging the corpse of a hunter squad member out of the woods, and then casually threw the body next to Isshiki Makoto's body a dozen meters away.

"Huh!" Isshiki trembled in shock. In just a few minutes, they had wiped out everyone?! This is impossible!

“D stands for Designer, and it also means Dolem.” Shinji Ikari suddenly said something that left Mei Isayama somewhat bewildered. He slowly walked up to Makoto Isshiki, pressed his head down, and made him look directly at him. “And right now, it’s still the D of Defeat.”

"Shut up! How did you know! How did you know! Shut up! Shut up! Don't call me D!" Isshiki screamed madly, but now that his limbs were broken, he could only roar angrily, but he couldn't do anything. He roared incessantly in a posture as if he wanted to pounce on Shinji Ikari, but he couldn't do anything, he couldn't do anything at all.

“Go ahead and yell, it’s fine, it’s meaningless. In the end, we’ll remember a bastard named D who went mad here and destroyed a hope for the Babem Foundation with his own hands.” Shinji Ikari roared at Isshiki Makoto in a frenzy. “Oh, I forgot, here’s a little surprise for you, D, you have a little too many brothers.” Shinji Ikari reached out and took off the helmet of the Babem Hunter private soldier next to him.

"Ah..." The sound of emptying lungs, looking at the truth suddenly revealed before him, the face exactly the same as his own, Isshiki Makoto could not believe the shocking reality before him. He could not deny what he was seeing. These soldiers, soldiers who looked exactly like him, were the soldiers he had personally brought to the vicinity of the Third New Tokyo City!

“One of the many failures, D, you might just be one of the slightly more successful ones.” Shinji Ikari patted his head. When Shinji got up again, Mei Isayama muttered something under his breath and turned away.

The deepest despair, the most terrifying nightmares, and the most painful wounds, with their power to distort reality, slowly descended upon the world before us. The evil god, this nightmare that walks on the ground, descended upon this place, and with a terror shared by two.

"Eh!" Isshiki Shinji looked up, bewildered, at Shinji Ikari, then instinctively glanced at the two veiled women beside Shinji.

Himuro Kirie gave Isshiki Makoto a look of disgust. She had just rejected her younger brother's suggestion to hang Isshiki Makoto in front of the Gates of the Underworld because she thought it was dirty!

Kurosawa Aise covered her mouth, seemingly with a smile on her face. Shinji Ikari didn't mention using him to fill the night spring, otherwise Kurosawa Aise would have made Shinji understand the little piece of advice she heard from her mother: a woman who isn't ruthless won't have a stable position.

"Uh..." Looking directly at a fierce god will shorten your lifespan! Unless this fierce god is on good terms with you, its power will not harm you.

Clearly, neither Himuro Kirie nor Kurosawa Aisei's friend list included Isshiki Shin in front of them.

Isshiki's face began to age rapidly. His eyes became cloudy, his skin was covered with wrinkles, and age spots quickly appeared on his face. Within seconds, he began to have difficulty breathing.

"You and your clones are things that people hate, and you have no reason to exist." Himuro Kirie naturally understood her younger brother's anger about this matter, so as his older sister, she naturally felt it was necessary to stand up for her brother!

"Yes, disgusting stuff." Kurosawa Aise glanced at Himuro Kirie with some surprise. She had put in a lot of effort in helping to seal Yozumi, and it could be said that her power had not yet fully recovered. However, from this simple sentence, Kurosawa Aise felt that Himuro Kirie's power was spreading wildly through the person in front of him.

However, Kurosawa Aise immediately felt he should lend a hand in this matter, since he himself had felt angry before!

"Ha...uh...uh..." His face was withered, his hair so dry it was falling out in clumps. Isshiki Makoto, struggling to breathe, was almost unable to think. Stared "kindly" at by two ferocious figures, and cursed using him as a medium, Isshiki Makoto could no longer hold on. His head lolled to the side, and he collapsed to the ground, his eyes losing all light. He struggled to whimper a few times, "Don't...call me, D," before falling silent.

A seemingly unremarkable bus suddenly crashed into a headlight on the side of the road. A special operations officer cautiously walked over to inspect it, then quickly frowned. The bus was packed with a group of shriveled corpses wrapped in elite equipment...
