I, Kiriko, the Cheater

Although Noro was identified as an SS-level ghoul, it was obviously stronger than the general SS-level, because it was almost immortal.

The reason why I say almost is because in reality no one is truly immortal.

And with this terrifying ability to regenerate, even the special investigator, if he didn't know that Noro could regenerate in advance, he might be killed in a sneak attack by mistake.

Looking at the fierce battle in the field, Amon Kotaro, who was originally injured, couldn't help, so he could only watch Kiriko and Noro fight.

Of course, he didn't just watch, he used the walkie-talkie to call for support a minute ago, but the shopping mall occupied by the bronze tree is relatively large, so the ghoul investigators scattered all over the place need to finish their battles before returning to the mall. Come on, it will take some time.

Before that, Amon Kotaro could only pray that Kiriko could last as long as possible.

Accompanied by a loud bang, the lamprey used to block was cut in half, and even Noro was cut into two from the top of his head, but even so, it was not finished, the bridge where Noro was standing The surface was directly shattered, and the remaining force even smashed a deep pit on the stone road on the ground below the bridge.

Ye Lu, who was turned into two halves, fell from the air and fell into the pit with two slaps, like two tattered sacks.

However, something unreasonable and expected happened. A large number of tentacles emerged from the body of Noro, who had been cut in half again, and repair work began again.

Tongzi stood on the edge of the hole that was punched out, looking down.

"I've killed you 66 times, and you can still be resurrected like this? It seems that your resurrection ability should not be the same model as Kakuzu's..."

"Moreover, the speed of regeneration and the degree of repair are no different from the original one. It should not be that the Philosopher's Stone in the body will be consumed after every resurrection..."

"Could it be that you are like an ogre, even if there is only one liver left, you can still regenerate, and you can only be destroyed with fire and strong acid? Hey, hey, if that's the case, it's too unreasonable."

Noro didn't answer Tongzi, but silently repaired her body.

From the beginning to the end, from the time he fought Amon Kotaro, until the opponent was replaced by Kiriko, Noro has never spoken.

He has been fighting in silence.

"I'm almost tired of playing, so let's just move a little more seriously."

Tongzi turned the long sword around, turned the tip of the sword downwards, and stabbed like that.

She was standing on the bridge, and Noro was lying under the bridge a few meters away from the bridge. No matter how long Tongzi's hands were, as long as she didn't have the ability of Luffy, it would be absolutely impossible for her to stab Noro with the sword .

But just as she made the movement of stabbing downward, an invisible wave of air suddenly burst out from the sword and landed on Ye Lu's body.

The next moment, there was a sharp and ear-piercing vibration, and Amon Kotaro, who was standing far away on the other side, hurriedly covered his ears, but even so, he could still feel that piercing the eardrum was like a needle prick. General pain.

The blasting air wave spread out in all directions with Yelu at the center.

The ground around it first cracked countless cracks, and then the stone chips that were blown up also disintegrated inch by inch in the spreading air waves.

The ground between the main building and the annex of the entire shopping mall was like being punched hard by a giant.

As for Ye Lu in the center, naturally there is not even scum left.

……

When Jason and Noro were expelled, it actually declared the victory of CCG.

The remaining ghouls were either expelled or fled.

And Kirishima Ayato retreated early after the main building was about to be breached, and had no intention of retreating to the other building to resist.

So far, CCG's large-scale annihilation operation is over, and the bronze tree stronghold in District 15 has been successfully destroyed.

The cadres of the Bronze Tree, Ye Lu and Jason, were expelled, as were a large number of ghouls, successfully preventing the Bronze Tree from penetrating into District 15.

In comparison, the CCG's personnel losses were much lower. The main casualties were the confrontation with the hot weapons of the ghouls at the very beginning, and the encounter of Amon Kotaro's team with Noro and other teams with Kirishima Santo casualties suffered.

But in fact, if at the beginning after guiding other residents to evacuate, the mall was directly razed to the ground with missiles, even if the missiles were not made by Quinke, even if one missile was not enough, two more missiles would be enough to destroy the mall and the shopping mall. The bronze trees in it evaporated.

In this way, there is no need to pay any loss of life.

When a large number of CCG troops gathered in the 15th district, it also gave the Bronze Tree an opportunity. The cadres of the Bronze Tree, Tatara and Aite, led a large number of elite ghouls to raid the ghoul prison Kuikulia in the 23rd district.

The guards responsible for the security and defense of Kuikulia suffered heavy casualties, and even the warden, who was the special investigator, also died in this attack.

The Bronze Tree released a large number of A- to SS-rank ghouls from Kuekulia, as well as many B- and C-rank ghouls, who escaped when the guards were killed or resisted the Bronze Tree's invasion.

Therefore, it is also difficult to judge from the results whether the CCG's action this time does more good than harm, or whether the harm outweighs the good.

By the way, Nishio Jin, who was captured by Jason at the beginning, killed a cannon fodder ghoul of the Bronze Tree after escaping from the "Fun House", and put on the clothes of the Bronze Tree.

Because Jason subconsciously ignored the ghoul wearing the bronze tree crimson cloak when he was looking for Nishio Jin, that's why he couldn't find Nishio Nishiki.

As for the bloody smell on Nishiojin's body when he was tortured, there was no need to cover it up at all. This is the stronghold of the Bronze Tree, and so many ghouls needed to eat, the bloody smell was already stronger.

In addition, the ghouls absorbed into the bronze tree are a group of violent elements, unlike humans who at most greet each other's relatives, friends and family members on the Internet, if the ghouls of the bronze tree get angry, they will directly attack.

And the Bronze Tree doesn't have the clause "no internal fighting", so there are many people who are injured all over their bodies due to private fighting.

However, although Nishio Nishiki managed to blend in among the ghouls of the Bronze Tree, he couldn't leave because of the heavy siege of CCG outside.

He was worrying about how to escape, when Tongzi killed the ghouls' hot weapon troops, opened the gap, and a large number of CCG investigators rushed in from the front, which allowed him to take advantage of the confusion and mingle with the ghouls who had lost their fighting spirit. The population fled from other directions.

……

The annihilation of the Bronze Tree stronghold in District 15 came to an end.

From the perspective of results, although the Bronze Tree lost two cadres and some cannon fodder ghouls, it absorbed many A-level to SS-level ghouls from the ghoul prison Kukulia, and also killed seven of the CCG. One of the Grand Investigators, the prison chief of Kuikulia.

Therefore, the Bronze Tree should still be considered profitable.

But no matter which one of them wins or loses, these are none of Tongzi's business, but her life has returned to calm.
