A gust of wind swept through, scattering the smoke and dust in the Royal Palace ruins, while wisps of cold air drifted away into the distance.
"Old Smoke, why don't you use the Smoke User to probe a bit?"
Mizaki's voice came through the wireless earpiece.
"Why not send your Frost Giant? It's more suitable for this task."
"The cold air it emits can reduce the Ant King's speed, so it can't be shattered."
"..."
Old Smoke glanced at Mizaki, then took a deep drag from the cigarette in his hand.
"Hoo~"
Old Smoke blew out a large cloud of smoke, which gathered in front of him and finally formed a figure identical to him.
"Chairman Netero, why don't you take a shot at probing? I can cover you."
Old Smoke didn't use the Smoke User, instead he created a smoke clone, which had the exact same aura as him, not just a disguise but a genuine appearance of another Old Smoke.
"Just what I had in mind."
