In the crazy era of Gotham, Mexican gangs, Russian gangsters, and Italian gangs had once ruled West District of Gotham. Now, it was chaotic and disorderly.
Penguin had been the ruler of this place, but after The Devil Gang cut off a third of his power, he started to retreat and gave up on this place. But he wouldn't allow a second ruler to appear here, so West District became the second criminal kingdom in all of Gotham after Narrow Island.
The ninjas of the Hand were gathered here. They had entered Gotham in batches. For ninjas, disguises were common, and it was naturally difficult for Robin to notice these unstable factors. Batman, who had been monitoring the entire process, was busy fighting the Joker. In fact, the Joker didn't allow anyone else to be involved in this long game at all. He kept making trouble for Bruce, and in the end, Batman didn't have time to care about anything else.
As for the other heroes in the city … it had to be said that they were still too inexperienced. They needed time to grow, so Saber took care of a problem like the Hand for them.
Bang!
The door of the warehouse hidden in the deepest part of the abandoned street was brutally torn open. As soon as Seiber stepped in, he was greeted by a dozen or so sharp shurikens wrapped in some kind of strange dark energy. Seiber didn't even look at them and let them smash into his body. However, they couldn't even break through the energy barrier around his body.
"Hmph, sneaky rats! Aren't you looking for me? I'm here! "
The amount of dark energy that had been purified by the devouring ability was a little small, but it was safe. Saber had already decided that if it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't directly use the dark energy from Domumu, which would only accelerate the corrosion of his will. He glanced at the dark warehouse and swung his left hand. The black hammer landed in his palm, and he charged at the guy at the top of the warehouse.
Bang!
The ground beneath his feet cracked open, revealing two craters. The man who was hiding on top of the warehouse made a complicated hand seal. His body was hidden in the darkness, but before he completely disappeared, Seiber's hand grabbed his calf tightly.
"Come out … and see me!"
Clang!
The unlucky guy was dragged out of the darkness and slammed to the ground by Saber. He fainted on the spot, and a snake-like dark energy wrapped around his neck and hung him in the air.
"Help! We can't deal with him! "
A low Japanese voice rang out in the darkness, revealing his position. The next moment, a bullet wrapped in holy light pierced through his abdomen. That kind of possession secret technique couldn't protect him at all in the face of this holy attack that could destroy evil. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.
"Do you have no guts? B * stards! "
Seiber landed on the ground and waved his war hammer vigorously, forcing back the two red-clothed ninjas who were attacking him from behind. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
"Rats, are you afraid? How disappointing. You have the guts to attack my home, but you don't have the guts to come out and face me? "
He opened his right hand, and a fist-sized ball of hellfire bloomed in his palm.
"Very well, I'll give you two choices now … or face me!"
Flames were ignited on the wooden plank beside him, and soon, it began to burn fiercely. Seiber's figure was elongated in the flames, and his voice seemed to be accompanied by the dancing flames. "Or face this fire that can burn your disgusting souls!"
"Now, make your choice!"
The second Saber's voice fell, another voice shouted in Japanese, "Formation! Summon its power! "
The next moment, in Saber's vision, those guys who were jumping up and down like cockroaches jumped down from all directions, gathered together, and quickly used their blood to form a very strange symbol on the ground.
How could Saber give up such a good opportunity to break through?
He rushed over with his warhammer, and a cold light flashed across the surface of the warhammer that had been completely ejected. Under Saber's control, the warhammer that had been divided into four pieces ejected sharp spikes, and smashed toward the head of the guy in the center of the formation.
"Have a taste of my fury."
Bang!
An attack that was strong enough to destroy a thick wall should've been able to penetrate straight through and crush the head of the ninja in front of him. However, Seiber felt as if his hammer had hit a piece of adamantium, causing his hand to hurt. He took a few steps back with the help of the recoil and saw a smoke-like existence hovering above the heads of the ninjas. It was that thing that blocked Seiber's fatal strike.
"Hmm … Interesting."
Saber curled his lips and swung his warhammer again. This time, the crimson flame wrapped around the warhammer, and it was like Saber was waving a big fireball. Another swift and violent attack, like a thunderbolt, smashed at the same position.
"Ouch!!"
Seiber was sure that his hammer had damaged the strange mist. He could hear a scream coming from the mist, but his hammer didn't manage to break through the mist. Instead, it seemed to have angered it. It howled in the air and transformed into a snake with its tongue sticking out. Its cold eyes glowed with a dark red light as it viciously bit down on Seiber.
"Good! This time, I'll kill you! "
The red flame on the warhammer in his hand turned black. The burning black flame had the soul-scorching characteristic of hellfire and the corrosive characteristic of dark energy. This was also Saber's most powerful anti-magic skill, except for the Eyes of Repentance.
"Bang!"
This time, the collision between the warhammer and the sharp teeth of the strange fog snake was like a hot knife piercing into butter. It was easily defeated. Saber cut the huge body of the strange snake into two. He saw more than a dozen souls escaping from the broken body of the strange snake. He tried to catch one of them, but they quickly dissipated in the darkness.
"Hey, bastard! Stop right there! "
This made Saber extremely unhappy. He walked forward and saw that the dozens of ninjas who were in the formation were all dead. They died very miserably. Their bleeding from the seven orifices was enough to make any ordinary person scream. What was even more strange was that when Saber approached, the corpses quickly turned into black ashes and spread on the ground. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that a human body could be burned so quickly and intact.
He squatted down and reached out to touch the ashes. He did not find anything, not even the souls that seemed to have survived in his villa. It seemed that it was just as Joker said, the souls of these strange guys would be sacrificed after death.
"But what the hell did they summon?"
Saber stroked his chin. He keenly sensed that things might not be simple. A summoned creature that could withstand two of his attacks head-on. Don't forget, this was only summoned at the cost of a dozen souls. If this number was multiplied by ten, it would take Saber a lot of effort to deal with the strange snake. If it was multiplied by fifty, the strange snake would become a formidable opponent. If it was multiplied by a hundred, Saber would probably fall into a bitter battle or even turn around and run away.
He turned his head and saw that the two guys he had hung in the air with dark energy had turned to ashes the moment they died. There was nothing left in the warehouse except for the raging flames.
He waved his hand and extinguished the flames without thinking too much. In any case, the Hand Association still had three other strongholds here. It was impossible for him not to catch anyone.
Thirty minutes later, at the bottom of the last remote and abandoned building that had been completely destroyed, Saber grabbed the collar of a ninja in red whose limbs had been broken. His expression was very unsightly.
He had destroyed four bases and killed at least sixty people, but had only captured one survivor. This result was simply humiliating for Saber. But after this battle, Saber became even more interested in the things that the Hand ninjas had summoned. He realized that the strange fog wasn't a snake, but seemed to be a random form. Saber also saw a dog, a lion and a Buddha statue.
"So, the form doesn't mean anything. Only the strange fog is the main body … Then, let me see what the hell you are!"
He forced the ninja, who was on his last breath, to open his eyes. Their eyes met, and the ring of fire in Saber's eyes flashed. The next moment, a familiar scene unfolded before his eyes. This was the feeling of flipping through memories in the soul. But just as Saber was about to see the first memory clearly, the image in front of him shattered, and a dark claw completely tore apart the soul in front of Saber like it was a toy.
However, the moment Seiber jumped out of his soul form, he saw the gigantic beast opening its eyes from the darkness. Those eyes were gray and misty, a color that was devoid of any light. Even the emotions in those eyes … No, there were no emotions at all. Those eyes stared at Seiber with no emotions at all. It was as if the eyes were looking at the rocks by the roadside and the aquatic plants in the water.
There was no liking, no disgust, not even disregard. It was just a very simple gaze. But the moment it appeared, the darkness around it surged, as if it had met its master.
It was a desolate aura, like a barbaric beast from ancient times. But the difference was that this thing in front of him definitely wasn't simple! It was something that could make Saber feel pressure at the soul level. It even felt like he was facing Ancient One and Domumu. Although there was a huge difference in energy level, this feeling already meant that things were heading in a dangerous direction.
"F * ck!"
Saber cursed, and the scene in front of him suddenly disappeared. The red-clothed ninja in his hand also turned into ashes at this moment and scattered between heaven and earth. It seemed to be using this method to claim ownership of these souls to Saber.
"Damn it! What the hell is that thing!!! "
The next moment, Saber's expression became dignified. He looked in the direction of New York. Catherine seemed to be chasing after these strange ninjas. In other words, the girl who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth was likely to encounter this strange thing.
Saber's heart suddenly tightened.
"Catherine … you crazy girl who only knows how to cause trouble, this time I must lock you up!!"
On the other side, just as Saber was rushing to New York at the fastest speed, Catherine in disguise, led by Tang Jing, walked into a very quaint villa in Manhattan. Tang Jing invited Catherine to sit opposite her like the host and personally made her a cup of the best Oriental hot tea. Unfortunately, this girl didn't know how to appreciate these things at all. She curiously looked at the strange words hanging around the room and the scrolls full of Oriental characters.
"Tang Jing, is this your house? Are you Japanese? Or Chinese? "
She asked curiously. Because of Saber, she had a good impression of Asians. Facing her inquiry, Tang Jing took a sip of hot tea and said in a magnetic voice.
"Just call me Carly. Catherine, I'm officially Japanese, but I might be born in China. Speaking of which, your brother seems to be from the East. Can I hear his story?"
Catherine scratched her head. This girl wasn't really a big-breasted brainless girl. She rolled her eyes. "But I'll listen to your story first, and your followers. Biba? That's a really strange name. "
"Okay …"
Karai smiled calmly. "Then let's make an exchange. Let me start first. What about Chiba? It was born in Japan 800 years ago. Our ancestors were the first generation of ninjas gathered to resist the rule of the fallen and decadent daimyo …"
