Aoki left because the appointed time between him and Number Four had arrived.
The hazy night made the whole thing feel like it was a moonless and windy night.
"Ahead should be where Number Two lives. Bartram, are you ready? Don't drop the ball at the critical moment. The opponent's strength is no weaker than yours and mine. If he escapes, it'll be a disaster for us. "Number Four, who was also dressed in a black robe, and Aoki were standing on the treetop of a big tree at this time.
Looking at a suitable living environment not far away, Aoki could feel Number Four's restless desire from his voice, as well as his excitement and trembling hands about what they were about to do.
"Tsk, take care of yourself. Don't be soft at the critical moment. If you can't get rid of the opponent, even if you push all the blame to me, don't think you can escape the responsibility." Aoki chuckled. Now that the arrow was on the bow, Number Four had no choice but to go all out.
Moreover, Aoki was fully prepared. Since he and Number Four could team up to deal with Number Two, then Number Four was very likely to team up with others to deal with him. So for safety reasons, Aoki had already called Brad and Catherine not far away in advance. Once he had a premonition that the situation was not right, he would immediately have two more powerful helpers.
"Hmph! Let's go! "Number Four ignored Aoki's sneer. They were already used to this kind of communication.
As soon as he finished speaking, Number Four jumped down from the treetop. In the night sky, a huge purple bat with two pairs of wings grabbed his shoulder and flew him toward Number Two's residence.
Aoki also slowly blended into the night. With the help of the Geng Gui, his hiding ability could be said to be at its limit in the wild.
A Crow's Head with a big hat on its head, looking like a gentleman, glided across the treetop and followed behind the Cross Word Bat with a black shadow.
Noticing the movement behind her, Number Four turned around to look. As expected, it was Aoki who had followed closely behind. She instantly felt relieved.
He had the same caution as Aoki. Since Aoki could team up with him to deal with Number Two, it was very likely that he could also team up with Number Two to set up a trap for him.
But after all, Number Two wasn't the same boss as them, and he and Bartram were considered "old acquaintances". No matter what, the trust between them was much higher than Number Two's.
Now that she had seen Crow's Head, No.4 temporarily suppressed her suspicions towards Aoki.
Both of them had very strong superpowers. With their bodies covered, if No. 2 didn't know in advance and increased the scanning power, they wouldn't have been discovered.
Before they could see the light from the bonfire, Aoki and Number Four chose to land first. Next, they planned to approach slowly from the ground.
They didn't speak to each other, but they had a certain level of tacit understanding.
Aoki's Geng Gui slowly disappeared into the dark night. Marsala followed closely beside Aoki, tiptoeing to protect Aoki's safety while not making much noise.
And Aoki finally saw Number Four's other sprite other than the Cross Word Bat and the Nido King. It was a functional Alidos. It clung tightly to Number Four's back. Spider silk shot out from Alidos' mouth and slowly weaved into a huge spider web.
When the two of them approached Number Two's residence, he was still resting and didn't feel any movement. But at this moment, they couldn't continue to approach rashly because they had already reached a limit. If they got any closer, there would definitely be a final protective measure left by No. 2, which would give him enough time to react.
Thinking about it from another perspective, at this extreme distance, Aoki and Number Four would definitely have sprites left behind to guard them.
The two of them looked at each other again and didn't say anything. But the murderous intent on their bodies became sharper and sharper. When these two murderous intents condensed to the limit …
"Do it!" Number Four growled. His hands flashed quickly and several Pokeballs were thrown out. The sprites seemed to be well-prepared. After they came out, they didn't rush towards the other party's location. Instead, they spat out a thick purple poisonous fog.
The highly corrosive poisonous fog not only carried a strong poison, but also a powerful destructive force. Aoki could clearly smell the unpleasant stench in the poisonous fog.
The culprit of this poisonous fog was an unusually strong looking Double Grenade Gas.
"Who is it?!!" A fierce shout sounded from Number Two's residence. The poisonous fog hadn't reached his residence yet, but it had already triggered his final alarm.
"You're courting death!!" Number Two's voice sounded again. One by one, the sprites rushed out from his residence. Then, a slightly battered figure wearing a loose black robe rushed out from the fog.
Seeing the poisonous fog surrounding him and his sprites, one could imagine how terrible Number Two's expression was at this moment.
Hearing Number Two's voice, Aoki heard a very disdainful sneer from Number Four in front of him. Then, Number Four walked into the poisonous fog without any protection. At the same time, a voice sounded in Aoki's ears, without a trace of emotion. "Bartram, do your own thing."
Seeing that Number Four had completely disappeared into the poisonous fog, the corner of Aoki's mouth that was hidden under the power membrane curved into a cold smile. Then, he disappeared into the night with Crow's Head and Marsala.
It was time to get to work. As the most important part of Aoki's plan, he could only let Number Two end his life quickly.
After Qing Mu disappeared, the sound of a huge battle could be heard coming from the poisonous fog. One could see huge balls of flames soaring into the sky, as well as several figures that appeared in the light of the flames.
Number Two was the trainer of the fire sprites. Aoki and Number Four had already investigated this before coming here.
They could vaguely see a huge fox holding flames like a torch, trying to defend as much as possible.
However, this poisonous fog was created by Double Grenade Gas. Although it was mostly covered by the strong stench, they could still vaguely smell the highly concentrated gas hidden in this poisonous fog. Once it was ignited by the flames, the huge explosive power and the roar of the explosion wouldn't be so simple.
It could be seen that after knowing Number Two's ability and strength, Number Four had really made sufficient preparations.
As an esper and an expert in wilderness survival, how could Number Two not sense the dense gas hidden in the poisonous fog? Right now, it was surrounding him, waiting for him to fall into the trap laid out by his opponent.
If he didn't ignite the gas, then it wouldn't be a problem. This way, Number Two's fire sprite would definitely be restricted and would still be slowly whittled down to death by Number Four's poison and sprite attacks.
This was the battle style that Number Four was best at. He would place his trap in front of his opponent. No matter if his opponent chose to jump or not, it meant that he had entered his battle rhythm.
As time passed, the toxins accumulated by the poison-type sprites were no joke. They would definitely make the other party lose consciousness before they even realized it!
Aoki wandered outside the poisonous fog. In fact, his task was relatively simple. It was to force the opponent back into the poisonous fog when they were about to escape.
For example, this time, while the opponent was fighting with Number Four, he sent out a sprite to secretly look for an escape route in the poisonous fog. However, it was caught by Aoki who was waiting outside the poisonous fog. Crow's Head, who had been charging up for a long time, blasted the sprite back into the poisonous fog.
After this attack, Number Two finally realized that it wasn't just one person who attacked him this time. There were at least two people, and it was a premeditated attack.
Originally, even when he was surrounded by the poisonous fog, he only felt a little restricted. Although he was shocked by the opponent's preparation, he didn't think that he would be in too much danger.
As the subordinate of the crazy man, it was normal for him to have friction with the subordinates of the black-faced man. There were also small conflicts between them, but there had never been a time when they wanted to kill each other. Because this was explicitly forbidden by the church, the consequences were not something that ordinary people could bear.
"How dare you!!! Have you thought about the consequences of doing this?! " Number Two's voice came out of the poisonous fog for the first time. It was clear that he was really panicking at this moment.
However, both Aoki and Number Four ignored him. They just strictly did their own things. From the moment they attacked, their determination would never waver. At this moment, if they didn't kill this Number Two, then he would be trouble that they couldn't get rid of.
Not getting any reply, Number Two's expression under the power membrane darkened again. His heart also sank slightly. He knew that the worst-case scenario had really happened, but at this moment, he didn't have a good solution.
If it was just one opponent, he could transmit his Ultra-power and use the church's special method to summon his companions. However, Aoki and Zero Four would not give him that chance, as a massive web woven out of Ultra-power had sealed off the entire poisonous fog.
Now, don't even talk about sending any messages out. Without the permission of Aoki and Number Four, no one outside could send anything in.
Number Two's heart sank. He didn't think that there would be someone so daring. In front of this cake that didn't seem to be very profitable, they were willing to put their lives on the line.
He didn't think that this was done by someone from the Alliance because it was impossible for someone from the Alliance to do this. Only someone who was also a member of the church would understand the church the best.
Because he knew his current situation, Number Two's thoughts were in a mess. Number Four took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack and beat Number Two back.
Although Aoki was outside the poisonous fog, he was constantly paying attention to the battle between the two people inside. Even without his help, Number Two had already fallen into an absolute disadvantage after making preparations beforehand. Moreover, in terms of pure strength, Number Two was not as strong as Number Four.
According to Aoki's understanding, Number Four's strength was quite good among all the members of the church this time.
The reason why Number Two was able to withstand Number Four's attacks in such a disadvantageous situation was because of Number Two's ace fairy, his Fiery Red Fox.

This was a combination of the Fiery Red Fox's superpower and fire element skills, so he didn't have to worry about his flames triggering the gas hidden in the poisonous fog. It was also because of the Fiery Red Fox's superpower that his flames didn't let the poisonous fog corrode Number Two's body.
After the initial panic, Number Two slowly calmed down. He had a huge advantage compared to Aoki and Number Four, and that was his superpower could be stacked on the Fiery Red Fox. This was a kind of buff. As a member of the Church of God, it was necessary to infuse Divine Power into him, but it wasn't his main force, the Fiery Red Fox.
Aoki and Number Four closely watched the movements of Number Two and his fairy. The more they thought that victory was in their hands, the more they had to worry about the opponent's desperate counterattack.
Now, Aoki and Number Four consciously didn't force Number Two into a dead end. Instead, they gave him a chance to survive.
Aoki's Geng Gui had also entered the poisonous fog and was pressuring the opponent together with Number Four's fairy. As a ghost-type and poison-type Geng Gui, it wasn't afraid of the poison in the poisonous fog. As a person who had absorbed the poison of Vavas before, it wasn't afraid of the gas hidden in the poisonous fog.
After the initial outburst, the three of them entered a state of exhaustion, and this happened to be what Number Four, who was an expert in using poison-type fairies, was best at.
Standing outside the poisonous fog, Aoki, who was only one step away from the poisonous fog, narrowed his eyes and had a thoughtful expression. At this time, Number Four and even Number Two who were inside the poisonous fog also had their own thoughts.
Did he really trust them completely?
How was that possible!
Number Two, who had been fighting until now, felt more and more tired. He only realized now that the opponent had completely grasped his fluke mentality and gave him a chance to survive, but as the battle dragged on, this chance was getting smaller and smaller.
Boiling a frog in warm water!
A bitter smile appeared on Number Two's face. His fluke mentality made him become the frog in the boiling water, and he kept telling himself that the water was still warm, and he didn't need to be nervous.
However, when he realized that the water temperature was already boiling, it was too late. The opponent had already added a large piece of firewood under the pot, and it instantly increased the temperature of the water.
However, to welcome death like this was something that no one could accept. Moreover, Number Two still had one last life-saving straw that hadn't been cut off yet.
"Number Three! Number Four! I know it's the two of you. How cunning of you to team up against me! " Number Two's voice rang out in the poisonous fog again. At this time, he was only left with the strength to resist bitterly, and it looked like he was about to fall at any time. However, his voice accurately transmitted into the ears of Aoki and Number Four.
"Although I don't know what exactly I have that is worth your attention, I don't know how the two of you plan to split the spoils after you've dealt with me.
Number Three! Number Four's strength is much stronger than yours. Aren't you worried that Number Four will attack you after you've dealt with me?! " There seemed to be some relief in Number Two's voice, as if he was sincerely thinking for Aoki.
What he said was very likely to be true. If he had 100% trust in the people of the Church of God, he was afraid that he wouldn't be far from death.
"Number Four! You're so much stronger than Number Three, and you've also contributed the most. Number Three is only on the lookout outside. Are you really willing to share a portion of the spoils with him?! "Number Two's bewitching voice rang out again.
Even if Number Four didn't have enough strength to deal with Aoki after dealing with Number Two, don't forget that Number Two and Number Four were both in the poisonous fog at this time. Even if he couldn't deal with Aoki, he could still occupy the field advantage of the poisonous fog and take all the benefits for himself. A 60-40 split was just a joke.
It had to be said that Number Two chose the right time to sow discord. When he was about to die, it was also theoretically the time when the conflict of interests between Aoki and Number Four was the greatest. Because it was unknown when Number Two would fall, it was almost the critical moment to split the spoils.
This was the time when the conflict was the greatest and most intense.
After hearing his words, although Number Four didn't say anything, the frequency of him commanding the elves to fight slowly decreased.
Noticing the change in Number Four, Number Two was overjoyed. He felt that he might be able to grasp a chance of survival.
If the one who joined forces with Number Four was really the old Bartram, it might really ignite the conflict between them. But unfortunately, the current Number Three wasn't the Bartram they imagined, but Aoki who was a member of the alliance!
While Number Four was hesitating, Aoki's voice rang in his ear. "I'll give you 10% more! You take 70% and I'll take 30%! Do you know the consequences of letting him escape?
Don't hesitate, kill! "
Aoki took the initiative to command the Geng Gui to launch a fierce attack. After hearing Aoki's words, Number Four no longer hesitated. An extra 10% was already a very good gain!
So together with Aoki, he launched the final attack on Number Two.
Feeling the instantaneous change in the rhythm of the battle, the joy in Number Two's heart fell to the bottom in an instant.
The opponent's elves' attacks were much fiercer than at the beginning. Number Two knew that the opponent was launching the final attack, but now he couldn't see any trace of survival. The elves were exhausted and he had lost the possibility of escaping.
In an instant, he made up his mind. Since those two wanted him dead, then even if he really died, he would bite off a piece of meat from them!
Don't underestimate any beast that was forced to a dead end!
"You forced me, Number Four!! Since you're so satisfied with your gains, why don't you try and see if Number Three will attack you after you're seriously injured!!! Hahahahaha — —
Fiery Red Fox, explode with flames!! Explode! Explode!! Explode!!! "Number Two's wanton laughter came from the poisonous fog again.
He knew that he had no chance of survival, so he was ready to drag Number Four down with him.
As a beast, when he was at his most desperate, his counterattack was also the fiercest.
"Damn it!!" Number Four's expression changed abruptly. She immediately ordered her elves to defend. Previously, in order to make Number Two hesitate, she didn't dare to use powerful fire skills to avoid igniting all the poisonous gas in the poisonous fog, which would cause her to be seriously injured first. Therefore, after a period of time, the poisonous gas in the poisonous fog had reached a very dense level.
Seeing the Fiery Red Fox's final explosion in despair, it almost instantly ignited the poisonous gas around Number Two. At that moment, Number Four's dual cannons immediately cut off the poisonous gas on both sides, preventing it from being blown over by the explosion.
At this moment, standing outside the poisonous fog, Aoki looked at such a "grand" explosion. If its power was reduced by half just like that, Number Two probably wouldn't be able to rest in peace.
Aoki had a meaningful smile on his face. Since this was Number Two's final wish, as a person who loved to help others, Aoki naturally wouldn't sit by and do nothing.
While Number Four's attention was focused on cutting off the poisonous gas, Aoki took out a pokeball and opened it in his hand.
"Sh * t!!" Flamingo appeared beside Aoki.
Aoki looked at the poisonous fog that was as dense as a dark cloud, as well as the poisonous gas that had completely merged with the poisonous fog. He said to Flamingo, "Flamingo, do you want to see a grand explosion?!"
Hearing Aoki's words, Flamingo instantly understood. With a flick of his hand, a condensed fireball was thrown from his hand. It drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed directly in the middle of the poisonous fog!
It was as if a stone was thrown into a calm lake, causing a layer of ripples to appear on the surface of the lake. It didn't seem like a big movement.
But then …
Boom!!!!
The sky above the entire area was almost illuminated in red. A huge explosion occurred with the fireball thrown by Flamingo as the epicenter.
All the poisonous fog disappeared in an instant, leaving behind only the raging flames and a large area of trees and rocks that were blown down by the aftermath of the explosion.
Flamingo stood in front of Aoki, blocking all the impact for him. This allowed Aoki to calmly watch the explosion.
Just the aftermath of the explosion required a lot of effort from Flamingo to block. What about the two people in the center of the explosion?
The second sprite had already lost most of its fighting ability. In the end, it could only rely on the formidable strength of the Fiery Red Fox to hold on. But in the end, the Fiery Red Fox also gave up all of its defenses and used its ultimate move, Explosive Flames, to bring about this grand explosion set.
Of course, if it weren't for Aoki's help, the explosion wouldn't have been so violent. Number Four, who was prepared for Number Two's final desperate counterattack, had already consciously let the poisonous gas in the poisonous fog shrink.
If it had gone according to normal development, the Red Fox's final counterattack would at most seriously injure himself and kill his trainer.
If Number Four didn't have absolute confidence in controlling the poisonous gas, he wouldn't have used such a tactic.
But Aoki was an accident. He helped Number Two fulfill his long-cherished wish. Number Four, who was focused on shrinking the poisonous gas, didn't even notice who the culprit of the explosion was. He only knew that his attention was on the flames at the time.
So he didn't know about the existence of Aoki's Flamingo, and also didn't know about the role Aoki played in the explosion.
Aoki put away Flamingo and looked at the huge crater caused by the explosion. There was no vegetation in it, as if it had evaporated in an instant, or had been completely corroded after being enveloped by the poisonous fog.
There was no combustible material, which led to the huge explosion, not a single spark was left behind. There was only a huge crater, but from the temperature in the crater, one could feel that the power of the explosion was extraordinary.
Aoki stepped on the hot mud and couldn't help but wrap his feet with his superpower.
As if he was strolling in his own backyard, he leisurely walked towards Number Four's location. As he walked over, a shadow appeared beside his feet. It was the Geng Gui who had perfectly dodged the explosion. He appeared beside Aoki unscathed.
Looking at his masterpiece, Aoki couldn't help but exclaim, "I'm really a good person!"
He helped Number Two, who died with his eyes wide open, fulfill his long-cherished wish and heavily injured Number Four. Wasn't that a good thing?
"But … I don't know which teacher taught me to do good deeds, but I can't leave my name behind. I think I finally understand the true meaning of that teacher's teachings." Aoki sighed as he walked.
If it wasn't for the Geng Gui beside him who had witnessed everything, people who didn't know would have thought that Aoki had done something amazing.
Aoki walked towards Number Four. Due to the explosion, he could only vaguely see his figure in the mud.
"Ptui! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! "Just when Aoki was thinking about someone, Cao Cao would always appear in time.
Number Four spat out the mud in his mouth and at the same time, he reached out his hands and patted the mud on his body. At this time, the superpower wave on his body had almost completely disappeared, even the superpower film on his face had disappeared. It was also the first time Aoki saw Number Four's appearance. He looked like a rather good-looking middle-aged man.
However, he looked a little haggard and his whole face looked a little gloomy.
Before he could finish cursing, Number Four, who was sitting on the ground, saw the unscathed Aoki and the Geng Gui beside him, as well as Marsala.
Number Four's face suddenly became a little vigilant. In his opinion, he didn't expect to be tricked by Number Two in the end. However, the opponent's fiery red fox was indeed strong.
However, his current situation wasn't very optimistic. His superpower had been completely exhausted in order to protect himself, and he couldn't even maintain the most basic superpower film. In the explosion, his sprites had more or less suffered different impacts, especially the gas source, Double Gas, which had almost completely lost its ability to fight.
The other sprites were also injured. It could be said that the impact of the explosion on the insect-type and poison-type Allidos was much greater than what Number Four had imagined.
The only fortunate thing was that the strong Nido King and the fast Cross Word Bat, which had dodged in time, hadn't lost much of their strength. Although they had suffered some injuries from the previous battle, at least they still had a certain amount of combat power, and his ace sprite hadn't lost its ability to fight either.
Therefore, although Number Four was a little wary of Aoki, it wasn't that he didn't have any ability to fight back.
Aoki looked at Number Four's vigilant face and didn't do anything. Instead, he walked to the place where Number Two had fallen to the ground not far away.
At this time, except for the fiery red fox, which still had some ability to move, the rest of Number Two's sprites had all lost their ability to fight.
This fiery red fox also couldn't stop Aoki from moving forward. He walked to the side of Number Two, who was beyond recognition.
Although his nose smelled a trace of barbecued meat, Aoki didn't have any appetite at the moment.
He rudely removed all the space equipment and pokeballs from Number Two's body. He didn't put them away because there was a pair of eyes staring at him from behind.
He walked to Number Four, who was sitting on the ground with a cold face.
"I, Bartram, am a man of my word. The value of the sprites in these pokeballs is the highest, especially that fiery red fox, and I only want this storage space.
As you can see, I didn't see what was inside, so I'll take thirty percent. These sprites are all yours! "Aoki threw all the pokeballs in front of Number Four.
Seeing these pokeballs, a look of surprise appeared on Number Four's face.
Just as Aoki said, these sprites were the most valuable and should be far more valuable than the storage space.
According to his own situation, all the things in his storage space, including the God's Stone, might not even be thirty percent of what he had.
Number Four didn't expect Aoki to be so trustworthy. Even though many of his sprites had lost their ability to fight, the other party didn't take advantage of the situation.
Number Four was even prepared. If Aoki wanted to take it all for himself, he would definitely fight back. But if Aoki chose to split it between two people, even if it was fifty-fifty, he could grit his teeth and accept it because his sprites really couldn't be injured at this time.
He didn't expect this to be the outcome in the end.
Everyone was happy!
Anyway, those sprites weren't Aoki's target. It was enough to be able to harvest all the other party's resources. Moreover, Number Four could play a greater role, so now wasn't the time to get rid of him.
In the end, Aoki and Number Four checked the scene together. After confirming that there were no traces left, the two of them left the place as quickly as possible.
After the two of them left, two more figures appeared. They were a man and a woman.
"Sir, this is the place, right?" The man asked aloud.
"It's here. Quickly finish what Sir ordered and don't leave any traces." The woman said.
Aoki's plan began!
