"Couldn't you make it taste a little better?"
"As the saying goes, good medicine tastes bitter, but I can try to improve it next time."
How about making it strawberry flavored? I love strawberries the most.
As if she had come up with a great idea, Shinobu clapped her hands together and jumped around happily.
"Hey, hey, hey, stop talking to yourself!"
Perhaps feeling annoyed at being ignored, Rize Kamishiro's kagune pierced directly into Shinobu Kocho's body.
"I still wanted to be friends with you, but it seems we can't get along."
Despite Rize Kamishiro's attack, Shinobu Kocho remained completely calm.
Her figure, just like her name, was as agile and swift as a butterfly.
Faced with Rize Kamishiro's kagune attacks, she constantly dodged and weaved.
I initially thought her butterfly-like dress was just for decoration, but now it seems...
With her agility and the loose clothing she wore, Shinobu Kocho was even more enigmatic, making it impossible to discern her true identity.
However, it's not that Rize Kamishiro's attack was weak or ineffective, if one really has to say.
Rize Kamishiro's control over her kagune is absolutely top-notch, truly deserving of her title "Glutton."
Although Kanzaki Teru had seen many ghouls before, and quite a few of them possessed powerful kagune.
However, this was the first time he had ever seen someone who could control their kagune so flexibly and freely, but what puzzled Kanzaki Teru was...
Shinobu Kocho never drew her sword, even though she had many opportunities to strike.
However, she seemed to be waiting for something, although her eyes looked somewhat empty.
But it was as if she was always staring at a certain point, coupled with her ever-changing figure.
What makes it even more difficult to predict what she will do next is something Kanzaki Teru can tell that she is not as weak as she appears on the surface.
Whether it's the aura she exudes or the rhythm of her breathing, Shinobu Kocho is very different from ordinary people.
Especially her breathing style, as if she was always keeping her whole body in optimal condition, her breathing style felt very special.
"Oh dear, you really show no mercy."
While Kanzaki Teru was pondering, Kocho Shinobu (cdfb) was like a butterfly frolicking among the flowers.
She easily dodged Rize Kamishiro's attacks.
"Don't be so arrogant, little girl!"
This time, Rize Kamishiro was clearly enraged, and four more kagune appeared from behind her once again.
Including the original four, there are now a total of eight kagune.
"In that case..."
"careful!"
Although Kanzaki Teru did speak up to remind him, it was clearly too late.
"Go to sleep."
At that moment, Nightmare once again unleashed his technique that forced people to fall asleep.
This time, Kanzaki Teru finally saw clearly how he used this move.
Even before Nightmare's head had fully recovered, he was able to speak normally.
Kanzaki Teru was still wondering how he managed to do it, and now he finally understands.
Suddenly, a gaping maw appeared on the back of Nightmare's hand, and it was this mouth that spoke.
The ability to force people to fall asleep is also activated through the sound emitted from this mouth.
This time he was farther away and noticed it in advance.
So this time it wasn't affected, but Kanzaki Hikaru's reminder was clearly a little too late.
Shinobu Kocho was directly affected by this technique, while Rize Kamishiro clearly did not let this opportunity pass her by.
"Die!"
Completely different from her previous gentle and refined demeanor, she now fully revealed her identity as a ghoul to Kanzaki Teru.
In an instant, the eight kagune behind her pierced straight towards Shinobu's chest, and even the air emitted a sharp whistling sound.
At this distance, even if Kanzaki Hikaru wanted to go and provide support, it would be too late. If he wanted to save her, Kanzaki Hikaru would definitely have to be prepared to withstand an attack from the enemy.
However, in the brief moment he hesitated, a scene that surprised Kanzaki Teru unfolded.
Chapter 230: Insect Breathing
Shinobu Kocho, who had been unconscious, only staggered slightly before instantly regaining consciousness.
"Oh, thank you for letting me have a sweet dream."
The moment she woke up, Shinobu's face seemed to show a different emotion for a fleeting instant, but it was only for a moment.
The smile that she had been wearing returned to her face.
"The Breath of Insects - The Dance of Butterflies [Teasing]".
In less than the blink of an eye, Kanzaki Teru saw Kocho Shinobu use her sword to instantly perform a five-hit combo forward.
The target was Nightmare, and its speed was so fast that no one had time to react.
Even so, Rize Kamishiro still managed to react.
In the next instant, he stood in front of Enmu, using his kagune to withstand Shinobu Kocho's five-hit combo.
Because of its rapid attack speed, it sacrifices attack power.
These five consecutive strikes only pierced the tip of Rize Kamishiro's kagune, without even causing any visible damage.
However, for some reason, Rize Kamishiro's expression turned exceptionally unpleasant.
The next second, he cut off all the parts of himself that had been stabbed.
"Wow, you're so perceptive!"
Seeing Rize Kamishiro's reaction, Shinobu Kocho was clearly somewhat surprised.
"It's a pity, your poison doesn't have much effect on me."
Rize Kamishiro's severed kagune quickly grew back.
"Really? I'm actually quite confident in my poison skills."
As she raised her sword again, Shinobu's aura subtly shifted.
Kanzaki Teru could tell what she was about to do, but he didn't expect that Kocho Shinobu would recover from the dream so quickly.
This really surprised Kanzaki Hikaru, and it was only then that he noticed that the sword in Kocho Shinobu's hand was quite different from the sword Kanzaki Hikaru remembered.
The biggest difference is that the blade is not a single piece, and it looks much lighter than a knife made of steel.
Moreover, only the tip of the blade retains the shape of a normal blade; the rest is exceptionally small.
It looks like it could be broken with the slightest touch, but the person in question seems to really like this weapon.
And judging from her appearance, she must be quite used to using this weapon in combat.
"Insect Breathing—"
The air around Shinobu Kocho trembled slightly, and the air currents seemed to be moving closer to her.
"The Dance of the Centipede [The Belly of the Hundred-Legged Snake] - "
Shinobu Kocho stomped her foot on the ground with a speed far exceeding what she had just experienced.
With her unpredictable movements and footwork, she vanished in an instant.
However, Kanzaki Teru could hear a muffled sound coming from the air.
"Little tricks!"
Although she couldn't see Shinobu's figure, Rize Kamishiro didn't just stand there and wait to die.
The four kagune behind her completely enveloped her and Enmu's figures, and then the other four kagune slammed wildly into the surrounding area.
Even if Shinobu Kocho is not visible, the opponent will be helpless against the indiscriminate attacks from all around.
Although Rize Kamishiro's idea was good, she did not expect that Shinobu Kocho's strength far surpassed hers.
Facing the four wildly waving kagune, Shinobu Kocho used her nimble figure to maneuver and dodge.
·· ···Request flowers······
He dodged all the attacks and instantly closed in on the two of them.
"Insect Breathing - Dance of Bee Teeth [True Dance]".
As she approached her opponent, Shinobu Kocho leveled the blade in her hand.
Then it thrust forward in an instant, and this attack was completely incomparable to the previous one.
She concentrated all her strength on the tip of the knife, combined with her unique movement technique.
This strike was enough to pierce through the opponent, just as Kanzaki Teru had predicted.
With a muffled "thud," Rize Kamishiro's kagune was pierced through.
It looks like it hit the opponent's body; the opponent must have been badly hurt by that attack.
Just when Kanzaki Teru thought the outcome was decided, suddenly, without any warning...
Shinobu Kocho seemed to have fallen asleep again, even though Hikaru Kanzaki hadn't heard a sound.
"Forced fainting sleep - eye".
His tone remained perfectly calm, as if there were no ripples in his voice.
Below Rize Kamishiro's kagune, a giant eye suddenly appeared.
No, it's not just one eye; to be precise, there are countless eyeballs attached to Rize Kamishiro's kagune.
The blue pupils seemed to pull people into an abyss; anyone who met their gaze would immediately fall asleep.
