This was a dead city.
Lonely, empty.
The buildings were swaying left and right. Those were the traces of war. The collapsed buildings were piled up randomly like building blocks. The roads were broken, and the wreckage was everywhere. The crooked pylons were still barely hanging on to cables that had lost all their usefulness. Above the cables, crows were lined up in groups, and they didn't make any cries. These black birds watched the city, looking for food that no longer existed.
In a dry canal, empty jars were being blown across the riverbed, making a tinkling sound like the weeping of ghosts.
Suddenly, all the crows on the cable flew up and let out a croak. They flew out in flocks into the sky like gods of death in black cloaks, casting pitch-black shadows on the streets and canals. Capullo looked up at the empty cable and snorted.
After Windsor Bellow moved the battlefield, they started their chase. They were now about a hundred kilometers away from the Holy Helm Castle. In the end, Windsor Bellow entered the abandoned city and used it as her second battlefield. Capullo knew that the complicated environment was good for Windsor Bellow. Her Endless Battery could play better here than in the mountains. However, Capullo was fearless, not even afraid of exposing his location. He shouted, "Greed, tell me, why are you fighting? This war has nothing to do with you, does it? "
"Why?" Windsor Bellow's voice sounded from afar, but in the next moment, it was already far away from its previous location. "Originally, after the expulsion of the Nelms, all of this should have ended. But you, an ambitious old fellow, have provoked a new war. Do you know that I won't have any money to make like this? Think about how I used to only need to frame some hapless idiots a little, and they would obediently send me money to spend. But now, I have to keep fighting to cover my expenses, and the culprit of all this is you, Capullo! "
Capullo wasn't an idiot. How could he believe Windsor Bellow's childish answer? But he didn't mind. He just wanted Greed to continue speaking so that he could lock onto her position. "If it's just for the money, I have a better proposal. As long as you marry Wigg from the Smith family, I guarantee that you can bathe in gold every day. After all, Wigg offered a good price for you. If I give you to him, the Smith family will pay for my armament for ten years. "
A sneer sounded from the distant building, and Windsor Bellow's voice rose from a gas station a hundred meters to the left, "Capullo, you've fallen. Ten years of armaments can buy your dignity. I'm so disappointed."
"Bullsh * t, did I say I agreed? That's the price that Wigg offered you. I wonder what kind of price that stingy fellow Mobius offered me? "
"It's not low either, Mr. President said …"
Before Windsor Bellow could finish speaking, Capullo, who had already locked onto her position, suddenly raised his hand and punched out. Space continued to bulge forward like a tangible object, and black rays of light shot out from a point in the middle. Then, they bounced back, creating circles of gray ripples. A violent wind suddenly blew on the street in front of Capullo. With the howling of the wind, everything within a kilometer of his fist gradually became transparent and then exploded into flying fragments. Capullo cleared a thousand-meter-long passageway in the city with a punch, but there was no sign of Greed in this passageway.
With a sudden gust of wind behind his head, Capullo immediately pounced forward. He stepped on the ground with his toes and spun. He saw a ray of light strike where he had just been, and then a large amount of flames sprayed out from that place. Capullo raised his head and Windsor Bellow's figure appeared on the rooftop of the tall building behind him. In front of Greed was a rotary cannon. The muzzle of the cannon was aimed at him, and then a rain of light poured down from the rooftop!
On the rooftop, Windsor Bellow stepped on the cannon and fired it. Her hands continuously adjusted the muzzle of the cannon and fired it downwards. The dense rain of light landed on the streets below, and the flames formed by the violent explosion instantly filled the space below the streets. The flames slapped onto the nearby buildings, causing the windows and doors of the buildings to explode one after another. Then, the flames found a vent, poured into the building, and sprayed out from the other side.
Amidst the flames, Capullo faced the rain of light that descended from the sky and crashed into the building where Windsor Bellow was. The latter sensed the movement of Capullo's Qi, put away the bracket, and carried the cannon towards the rooftop. The rain of bullets from the cannon pierced through the floors and landed below. As a result, a ball of flames exploded from the bottom of the building and spread layer by layer. However, at this time, Capullo had already smashed out from behind the building, and then the building groaned. After Garp destroyed many load-bearing pillars and stress walls, the building was overwhelmed, and under the strafing of Windsor Bellow, it finally collapsed.
Capullo stood on the other side of the street and watched as the building first pressed down on a nearby building. The building rubbed out a large amount of dust, and the building that was stuck in mid-air showed thick cracks. A moment later, it collapsed, and the building shattered into countless pieces, rumbling as it smashed into the ground, raising dust all over the sky. Dust surged out like a tide. For a moment, Capullo felt as if he was in a fog.
He didn't move, waiting. He was waiting for Windsor Bellow to make a move, but after waiting for more than ten seconds, he still didn't see Greed. Capullo snorted. Windsor Bellow was probably already far away after she stopped shooting.
"Cunning little fox!"
Capullo cursed in a low voice.
On the twelfth floor of a skyscraper, Windsor Bellow stood by a window. The Endless Battery had already been adjusted to the sniper rifle mode in her hand, which was also the regular form of the Endless Battery. Windsor Bellow put the sniper rifle on the windowsill and swung the muzzle down. She looked at the sight and saw the street scene in the lens. Windsor Bellow slowed down her breathing and waited patiently.
In front of the street, buildings were collapsing. That was Capullo's masterpiece. He used a stupid method to raze any commanding heights that might exist in his line of sight. Although stupid, it was effective. Capullo knew that Windsor Bellow was waiting for a second chance to attack, so he simply gave her this chance. He wasn't good at hide-and-seek, but if Capullo wanted, he could raze the city!
At that time, Windsor Bellow would have nowhere to hide.
On the skyscraper, Windsor Bellow looked at the collapsed building. The collapsed building had already spread to this side. She looked back at the sight, and a moment later, Capullo's majestic figure appeared in the sight's cross-shaped star. The moment she entered the crosshair, Windsor Bellow pressed down on the trigger. At the same time, Capullo looked up in his sights.
