The Boundless Journey, Starting From Bofuri

"He’s so heavy!" Enduring Koro’s endless beating, Sheele could only defend herself with difficulty.

At that moment, Seryu took out a whistle and blew it, revealing a sinister smile.

"An attack like a storm, and even calling for reinforcements... this is truly... a crisis!" Facing this situation, Mine’s expression grew even calmer. She leaped into the air and directly fired an ultra-powerful shot at the frenziedly attacking Koro.

"Her firepower increased!" Feeling the intensity of the energy blast Mine released, Seryu found it somewhat hard to believe.

However, although it blew off half of Koro’s head, it clearly didn’t hit the core. Koro quickly began to regenerate.

"Damn, it regenerated so fast. What terrifying vitality!" Noticing the change in Koro, Mine frowned and said.

"Heh, don’t underestimate the fearsomeness of a Teigu!" Hearing Mine’s words, Seryu said with a wicked smile.

And then, Sheele’s figure swiftly rushed out from the thick smoke, heading straight for Seryu.

"A Teigu is just a tool. It will stop immediately once the user is taken down!" Sheele said softly.

"Extase!" After closing in on Seryu, Sheele released her skill. The scissor-blade instantly emitted a dazzling blue light, then swiftly launched a piercing attack at Seryu.

But Seryu wouldn’t give up easily. For the sake of avenging her family and teacher, she used the metal firearm in her hand to defend against Sheele’s attack...

"She herself isn’t weak either!" Feeling Seryu’s resistance, Sheele frowned, but the attacks from her hands didn’t stop.

And Koro, sensing its master was in danger, instinctively wanted to go to her rescue, but Mine blasted at it, stopping its movement.

"Your opponent is me. I won’t let you get past me!" Mine said coldly, glaring at Koro.

But because her sense of crisis had weakened, her attacks had weakened once again.

Seeing Mine trying to stop her, Koro angrily advanced towards Mine.

Over there, Sheele continued her swift attacks. Then, as Seryu kept dodging, she failed to notice a rock behind her. Her foot got caught, revealing a huge opening.

Sheele quickly seized this opening and slashed fiercely at her head. Seeing this, Seryu directly used her own arms to block the fatal blow.

Accompanied by the severing of her arms, Seryu let out a painful scream.

’She sacrificed her arms to block a fatal wound!’ Seeing this scene, Sheele paused for a moment, then charged at Seryu again.

"Justice will definitely win!" After being continuously attacked by Sheele, Seryu fell into a frenzied state. The moment Sheele got close, she revealed an evil smile, shouting as her arms transformed into firearms, instantly aiming at Sheele.

"Body modification?!" Sheele looked at Seryu with shock.

"This is the ultimate skill my captain bestowed upon me! Take this!" Seryu said with a wicked smile, quickly firing.

However, as the gunshot rang out, Sheele didn’t fall in a pool of blood as Seryu had imagined. Instead, at the critical moment, Sheele calmly used the huge scissor-blade horizontally in front of her, blocking the bullet.

"She blocked it?" Seryu looked at Sheele in shock.

And now Sheele was expressionless. She performed a fancy move with the scissors, and severed Seryu’s firearm arms again.

’It’s not over yet. If I use that move, Koro will temporarily become immobile due to overheating. But there’s no other way!’

Although seemingly driven into a corner, Seryu still didn’t intend to give up. "Koro, use the ultimate skill, Berserk!"

As Seryu’s voice fell, Koro’s appearance rapidly changed. Its body grew a size larger, appearing extremely strong. Most importantly, its whole body turned from white to deep red, looking extremely ominous.

And Mine, who was originally responsible for holding it off, felt an extremely ominous aura. Then, Koro let out a tremendous roar, forcing Mine and Sheele to cover their ears, unable to move.

’The opponent still has this kind of ultimate move?’ Mine thought incredulously. And it was this gap that allowed Koro to grab her directly.

"Mine!" Seeing this, Sheele couldn’t help but shout.

"Crush her!" And Seryu, in front of Sheele, screamed maniacally.

However, as Koro kept exerting force, a flash of silver light passed by, and Koro’s thick arm was directly severed.

It was Sheele, who had abandoned Seryu and arrived just in time, saving Mine.

"Sheele!" Mine, who had fallen, saw Sheele and revealed a look of joy.

"Made it!" Noticing Mine only had minor injuries, Sheele also sighed in relief. But before she could completely relax, a gunshot rang out. Sheele’s back was directly hit by a bullet, and blood instantly splattered.

It turned out that Seryu in the distance had used the gun hidden in her mouth to fire. The sudden change left Mine and Sheele somewhat unable to react in time.

"My body... can’t move!" Hit by this shot, Sheele briefly lost control of her body.

And in Mine’s horrified gaze, the berserk Koro had already opened its bloody maw, aiming at the immobile Sheele.

As Koro drew closer and closer to Sheele-

With a ’boom’, what came into view wasn’t the scene of Sheele being bitten to pieces.

It turned out that at the critical moment, an invisible attack suddenly blasted out, accurately smashing the berserk Koro away.

This change left everyone present unsure of what had just happened.

At the same time, not far away, Takeru seemed to sense something. Just now, he discovered that the Shadow Person he had hidden in Sheele’s shadow seemed to have taken action.

This also meant Sheele had encountered a life-threatening danger. Because under Takeru’s instructions, unless Sheele and Mine faced a certain-death situation, the Shadow Person would not act.

"Leone, Sheele and Mine have run into trouble. You go back first. I’ll go check on them!" Thinking of this, Takeru directly jumped off Leone’s back, shouted loudly, and quickly disappeared on the spot.

And Leone, who was originally walking, heard Takeru’s words and didn’t react for a moment. When she came to her senses, Takeru’s figure had long since disappeared from the spot.

"Takeru has such fast speed? Mine and Sheele! I hope nothing happens to you!" Leone didn’t doubt Takeru’s words. Although she didn’t know how Takeru sensed it, she still chose to believe him.

However, out of concern for her comrades and Takeru, she also prepared to carry out a rescue.

Thinking of this, she also quickly transformed, but she helplessly discovered that after Takeru went a little farther, he left no trace of aura at all, making it impossible for her to track him.

Seeing this, she could only choose to believe Takeru and first hurried back to Night Raid’s secret base on her own.

Back to Sheele and Mine’s side, Koro, who was blasted away by the invisible attack, was also furious. However, just as it wanted to counterattack, it was still being continuously attacked by something, unable to move at all.

"What is that?" Watching Koro being continuously attacked but unable to see the enemy hidden in the dark, Seryu was also furious.

"Sheele, are you okay?" Here, Mine also struggled to stand up, then worriedly came to Sheele’s side and asked with concern.

"Yeah, I’m fine. I can still hold on." Hearing Mine’s words, Sheele quickly replied.

"Damn bastard!" Then Mine also looked at Seryu angrily, wanting to shoot her with her gun, but her fractured arm made the gun-raising action very slow.

"Mine, there’s no time. The guards are arriving!" Sheele quickly reminded Mine.

"Damn it, I’ll remember this!" Seeing this, Mine quickly helped Sheele up and left. Up to now, they still didn’t know what had happened, but her mind instinctively thought of Takeru.

’Don’t worry, I will definitely protect you!’ Mine’s mind kept flashing Takeru’s words, and she stared blankly at the invisible person still beating Koro.

As for Bulat, Sheele and Mine directly ruled him out. If it were Bulat, he would have attacked Seryu long ago or prioritized getting them away, not desperately attacking Koro.

"Mine, we need to break through!" Looking at the numerous guards, Sheele loudly said.

Although she was shot in the back, Night Raid’s members wouldn’t be defeated by just one bullet. Or rather, if it were truly a fatal wound, then Takeru’s Shadow Person would have appeared long ago.

There was one thing Takeru hadn’t considered: his order was for the Shadow Person to attack only when faced with a life-threatening danger. So the Shadow Person also strictly followed Takeru’s will. If Koro hadn’t been about to tear Sheele apart, the Shadow Person hidden in Sheele’s shadow wouldn’t have appeared.
