The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

The shadows beneath their feet rolled like boiling water, as if they were engaged in some kind of struggle that was invisible to the naked eye, making everyone on the bridge feel a chill seeping from the bottom up.

"..."

At a certain moment, when this delicate balance is broken, the battle occurs.

"bass--"

The katana with a golden edge was unsheathed in an instant, and Ibuki Rin's body turned into a shadow and instantly appeared in front of Suleiman.

"boom--"

A knife flashed with red light and slashed out. The windshield of the bridge of the "Ice Ocean" burst, and a dark figure was knocked away, falling freely on the deck and stumbling several times.

Suleiman climbed up somewhat awkwardly, his hands holding down the top hat on his head to prevent it from falling.

He raised his head and met the gaze of Ibuki Rin at the edge of the bridge, and saw the girl's figure flash by. At the same time, he felt a strong wind coming from behind him.

"...!"

Suleiman suddenly pulled out the engraved revolver and fired gracefully behind him.

"boom--"

The bullet flashed with black light and Ibuki Rin instantly stepped back, turning into an afterimage to dodge, and then turned into an afterimage again to attack the sword——

"clang--"

Suleiman blocked the sword with a dagger, and there was an explosion, and the entire hull of the "Ice Ocean" made an iron roar.

"You are very loyal, aren't you?" Suleiman smiled elegantly, looking at the indifferent girl in front of him, "But has He ever responded to you?"

Facing Suleiman's question, Ibuki Rin did not speak. She stroked her bangs expressionlessly, then turned into an afterimage again and slashed out with a knife -

"boom--"

Suleiman was blown away again. Before he could adjust his posture in the air, Ibuki Rin attacked him with a trail of red light, transforming into dozens of phantoms.

“Swish, swish, swish, swish—”

Dozens of scarlet slashes appeared in the air at the same time, all intersecting Suleiman's body. The next second, scarlet annihilation erupted -

"boom!"

The gentleman's shadow disappeared completely in the red light, and when the light disappeared, there was no trace of Suleiman there.

But Ibuki Rin had no intention of slacking off. She silently put the sword back into the scabbard, turned her bloodshot eyes, and looked towards the bow of the ship -

"By the way, would you consider having dinner with me, Ms. Ibuki Rin?"

At the bow, Suleiman Agust stood there with an elegant smile on his face.

He slowly opened his arms, and his silver eyes turned dark:

“You play the food.”

As shadows lingered around his wrists, countless black tentacles broke through the waves, tearing apart the outline of the sea, and swung crisscrossly behind Suleiman.

All those tentacles were aimed at Ibuki Rin, rushing towards her like a black wave—

"squeak------"

Ibuki Rin was not at all panicked. She took a deep breath and silently placed her hand on the sword. The shadow under her feet became solidified.

The red and black power swirled around her at the same time, and then she once again turned into countless afterimages -

“Swish, swish, swish, swish—”

The slashing blow that seemed to be able to split space instantly filled the entire space, like layers of spider webs, turning all the dark tentacles attacking the "Ice Ocean" into pieces.

All this happened in an instant. Before the elegant smile on Suleiman's face even had time to fade away, Ibuki Rin landed on the deck and started running with her sword unsheathed.

Her bloodshot eyes locked onto Suleiman at the bow of the ship. Dozens of red lines appeared on Suleiman's body almost simultaneously, breaking him into equal pieces.

"call--"

During this extremely slow time, there was still no ripple in Ibuki Rin's bloodshot eyes, as if fighting was not a burden at all for her.

Seeing that she was only a few inches away from Suleiman, the slender hand holding the sword had already grasped the hilt, and a flash of red light burst out from the gap between the blade and the scabbard.

At this moment, a sharp pain came -

"Kacha——"

Ibuki Rin looked down and found that a tentacle emerged from her shadow and pierced her ankle directly, then twisted it violently and tore off her entire right foot.

"Um...?"

The girl uttered a delicate moan, and before she fell, a dozen black thorns burst out from the shadows, instantly piercing her body like a sieve.

"...!"

A mouthful of black blood spurted out of Ibuki Rin's mouth. She saw the cunning in Suleiman's silver eyes and the engraved revolver raised by the gentleman.

Facing the muzzle of the gun, the girl drew out her sword fiercely, but before her blade touched Suleiman, a dark trail hit her -

"Puchi-"

The terrifyingly powerful black bullet tore Ibuki Rin's body apart from her right shoulder, and her entire arm holding the knife flew out and landed on the deck in a spin.

The eyes of the girl who lost the right upper body widened. She fell to her knees and watched Suleiman point the gun at her head.

"The Son of God...will be killed and punished by the Son of Man..."

Suleiman murmured in a low voice, the smile on his lips becoming more and more obvious:

"Good night, Ms. Ibuki Rin."

Looking at the broken girl, Suleiman pulled the trigger without hesitation.

But almost at the same time, a beam of red light cut him in half—

"bass--"

Suleiman's eyes widened, and he looked up, and was shocked to find that the half of Ibuki Rin's body that was blown away was shrouded in shadow. A huge shadow hand was holding her sword, and that was the source of the red light.

"you..."

Suleiman staggered back two steps, black blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, followed by an elegant smile.

"So...I..."

"boom--"

Another red light blasted out, instantly turning Suleiman's body into debris and dissipating.

This time, it was the Kamistriker. This giant cannon equipped with redstone had been aimed at Suleiman on the bow without him noticing, just waiting for this attack.

"..."

On the damaged bridge, Fujita Hideo gasped and stared blankly at the tragic scene on the deck. The dark eye in the distant sky had disappeared, and the crew members had regained control of their bodies. Most of them were trembling and wiping their noses and tears, looking frightened.

"Ms. Ibuki Rin..."

Hideo Fujita stared blankly at Ibuki Rin who was kneeling on the deck. The girl's body was extremely broken and it was obvious that she had reached the end of her life.

She looked back at the bridge, looked into Fujita Hideo's eyes, nodded, and then fell to the ground like a rag doll.

"Om-"

The shadow engulfed the girl's body, pulling her broken body, broken hands and feet into the shadow and dissipating them.

It was as if she had never existed, and even the bloodstains were erased by the shadow.

"..."

Hideo Fujita coughed and saluted towards the place where Ibuki Rin disappeared.

He turned around, staggered to the rudder, held the rudder with both hands, and spoke weakly:

"Attention all crew members... We are about to move on..."

"Protect the Blue Reef...even at the cost of your life..."

......

8) Son of God (Part 7)

After the black fish wave receded, the sea became calm again, as if the previous noise was all fake.

The "Blue Reef" sailed smoothly on the sea. The broken moonlight reflected the battle damage on the hull, making the ship look like a battle-hardened warrior.

Most of the crew members were covered in wounds from the recent chaos. Some of them were injured in the attack of the black fish, while others were thrown into a trance by the black eye that suddenly appeared above the sea, and no matter how they shouted, they couldn't move.

"We can't go on like this," Grissom sighed. "The crew has been depleted. If there is another attack like this, we will undoubtedly be destroyed."

The young captain held the rudder covered with dark lines and frowned, as if he was thinking of a strategy.

He suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder, and when he turned around, he found it was Carly.

"Sister...?"

"Once we get close to the Black Island, how are you going to get us ashore?" Carly asked.

"Well...if the rudder senses the Black Island, we can directly use the deep sea rifts to travel there," Grissom said, "That's what I'm worried about. According to what Dad wrote in his logbook, there should be a lot of black fish on the Black Island. We won't be able to hold out for long."

"Indeed," Aoi nodded, "I can only protect one or two people at most, more than that."

"If Suleiman catches up with us again, we will be wiped out without a doubt," Mei Xinghui said somewhat depressedly, "I received news from the Ice Ocean. The damage over there is quite serious. They can probably only provide peripheral artillery support. It is unlikely that they will enter the territorial waters of Kuroshima with us..."

Reality is often heavy. The trip to Black Island, which seemed to have all the necessary conditions, was on the verge of collapse just because of the appearance of Suleiman.

If there are more emergencies on Black Island, no one can be sure of the future.

"..."

Carly lowered her head, her icy blue eyes half hidden in the shadows.

After a long while, she spoke softly:

"Then let Aoi and I go to the island alone."

"No way," Gleason refused immediately, "I'm worried."

"If you were really worried, you should have come to me a long time ago," Carly said calmly, "I promise I'll come back to see you."

"No, I'll go with you if I have to," Gleason said anxiously, "Anyway, I can't..."

"It's okay, don't worry!"

Another hand slapped Gleason's back heavily. The boy turned his head in a daze and found that it was Aoi who was biting half a bread in her mouth.

"Grissom will be responsible for taking us to the shore of Black Island using the Blue Reef. Once we get ashore, you will leave immediately."

"No, but..."

"You are a captain, and a captain is responsible for his crew."

Aoi put both her hands on Grissom's shoulders, showing a rare serious look, which made Grissom stunned for a moment:

"Do you remember what your first words were when I fished you out of the shipwreck?"

"You...you said..." Grissom lowered his head, "You should cherish your second chance."

"Yes, that's right. If you are not strong enough, it will be impossible to avenge Captain Furukawa Watari."

As Aoi spoke, her eyes became more determined, as if the gaze itself carried a strong sense of encouragement.

"I will protect your sister, and you protect the crew of the Blue Reef. We need to get everyone home safely."

After he finished speaking, he just stared, almost purely staring.

That moment seemed to be stretched infinitely, with countless lights and shadows flashing in Gleason's eyes, finally settling on Aoi's face.

The boy swallowed and nodded slightly:

"I understand."

He looked at Carly beside him and wanted to say something, but Carly stopped him by shaking her head.

Yeah...it's meaningless to say anything now, let's leave everything for later.

Grissom clenched his fists, nodded to his sister, and then took control of the rudder.

"Mei, get them all ready," Grissom said softly, "We're about to sneak in."

"Yes," Mei Xinghui nodded, "The Ice Ocean is ready at any time. If there is any situation, it will immediately provide artillery support."
