"The mighty member of the Phantom Troupe, still destined to die at the hands of us, the Shadow Beasts!!"
As if to confirm his words~
"Thud!!"
A figure swiftly darted past Uvogin's shoulder, sending a splash of blood into the air.
"Spit!!"
Rabid Dog spat out a piece of skin-covered flesh, grimacing slightly as he said, "It's really a tough bone to chew, even the meat is this hard."
Originally, Rabid Dog could easily tear off a large chunk of flesh from Uvogin's shoulder. But now, with Uvogin's body strengthened, achieving that feat wasn't so easy anymore.
"They were actually able to use hair and teeth to wound Uvogin's skin, which is as hard as iron. That's quite something."
Nobunaga tugged at his beard in surprise, "It seems they have some skills after all. Uvogin's in trouble now."
"Yeah, but is the opponent planning to toy with Uvogin?"
Morin watched the scene below, "If that Shadow Beast called Rabid Dog had aimed for Uvogin's neck instead of his shoulder, the outcome might have been decided immediately."
"So, still too confident in their own strength, thinking they've already got Uvogin under control?"
Feitan scoffed disdainfully, "Forgetting the basic taboo of a Nen user: never let your guard down against any opponent and their abilities. It's just pathetic."
"Such foolish thinking."
On this point, Morin shared the same view as Feitan. In group battles, the most feared thing is getting complacent when ahead and reckless when behind.
When the opponent holds the advantage yet squanders it by not killing when they should, it's no wonder they would be easily wiped out by Uvogin next.
"Hey, Uvogin!!"
Shalnark shouted from the side, "Need any help?!"
"Don't you dare interfere!!"
Uvogin's temper flared, simply put, he was getting a bit worked up: "I can handle these guys myself!!!"
As he spoke, another piece of flesh was bitten off by Rabid Dog.
"Hah, simple-minded, brawn-over-brain type."
Rabid Dog wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "A few hits and you'll be easily dealt with."
At this point, Uvogin realized something was wrong; his body started showing signs of sluggishness.
"Took two hits from me, yet it's only now taking effect. I can't deny, your body really isn't ordinary, you're quite resilient."
Rabid Dog, hands back in his pockets, boasted, "But my teeth contain neurotoxins that can paralyze your body."
"You're not injured above the neck, so you can still feel pain and fear."
"The toxin will gradually take effect, just wait and see."
A sinister smile of assured victory spread across his face.
"Indeed, it's this kind of despicable tactic to toy with opponents."
Feitan's eyelid twitched as he watched, "So he didn't attack the neck, just to leave the opponent with a sense of pain and fear?"
"Heh—"
Feitan couldn't even be bothered to comment.
Rabid Dog's tricks were all things Feitan had played with back in the day, utterly uninteresting to him.
Even Machi chimed in from the side, "Why not use a lethal poison, that would end the fight instantly."
Shalnark: "Maybe he enjoys slowly interrogating and torturing, just like Feitan?"
Feitan: "Heh."
At this moment, Leech approached, cradling his bloated belly with a peculiar smile.
"I have countless leeches inside me, all kinds."
"Some can cure diseases, while others can make people sick. I'll send the leeches into your body through your wounds."
He extended a long, flask-like tongue, "They'll crawl from the wounds, along your body, to your kidneys."
"Finally, they'll lay eggs in your bladder, and that's where the real fun begins."
His expression turned bizarrely grotesque, "The newborn leeches will be expelled with your urine."
"Most people die from the excruciating pain at this point..."
Crunch!!
Before he finished speaking, Uvogin's massive jaws snapped shut.
Before Leech could send the leeches into Uvogin's body, Uvogin had already taken the initiative.
"Clearly, your Nen ability doesn't require an explanation, yet you talk so much..."
Uvogin chewed expressionlessly, speaking indistinctly, "Did you forget while learning Nen and fighting, never to let your guard down against anyone?"
"A bunch of half-baked Nen users, learned well but use it poorly, spit!!"
Uvogin spat out everything he had chewed up.
Hmm, after learning so many training insights, Uvogin finally had a chance to teach others a lesson. Whether it's Feitan or Uvogin, the first sentence in their training insights always reads:
"Never let your guard down against any Nen user and their abilities at any time!!"
---
Uvogin remembered this point deeply and applied it well in battle. In contrast, these Shadow Beasts...?
The Worm was already dead, and Leech had his skull half bitten off by Uvogin, dead beyond any doubt.
"Really quite unappetizing, though I never had high hopes for the taste of strange things."
"Well then, next up~"
He turned his face towards Rabid Dog, who stood there with a look of terror.
Grinning widely, revealing blood-stained teeth:
"Looks like it's your turn now."
"Sorry about that, pretty boy!! How many steps does it take to provoke Feitan to death?"
"This guy..."
A drop of sweat slowly trickled down Rabid Dog's forehead, "He's a monster!!"
"What's wrong? Why so surprised?"
Uvogin's smile was terrifying, "You're not the only one who can bite."
"As long as I can move anything above my neck, it's enough to take you all down!!"
As his words fell, Uvogin took a deep breath.
A powerful gust of wind burst from his mouth.
At the same time, a small white chunk flew out with the gale, rapidly heading towards Rabid Dog.
Caught off guard, Rabid Dog could only hastily raise his right hand, gathering a layer of Nen to defend.
"Is this a bullet? No... it's Leech's skull!!"
This was the last thought that flashed through his mind.
When Uvogin spat it out, the skull piece was imbued with intense Nen.
Its speed and power were on par with a typical Nen bullet!!
It easily tore through the hastily gathered Nen on Rabid Dog's right hand, piercing through his palm.
And with undiminished momentum, it precisely struck Rabid Dog's skull, then penetrated his brain...
"And next..."
Sensing Rabid Dog's life force vanish instantly, Uvogin turned his head towards Porcupine on his right fist.
Porcupine: "???"
"What kind of brutal monster is this?!"
To think he could so easily take out Worm, Leech, and Rabid Dog in succession.
And this was while only being able to move parts above his neck, with his right fist essentially sealed, making it the worst possible situation.
Yet he still managed an extreme counterattack, taking down three Shadow Beasts in a row.
Bear in mind, there were only ten Shadow Beasts in total!!
Losing three-tenths at once, even the Ten Dons couldn't remain indifferent to such losses.
"But if you think the same methods used on Rabid Dog and Leech will work on me, you're mistaken!!"
Porcupine swallowed hard, offering himself a bit of reassurance.
However...
"Ha!!!!!"
Uvogin's deafening roar echoed in Porcupine's ears.
Thud~!
Two bursts of blood blossomed at his ears.
His pupils gradually lost focus.
"You can't block sound, can you?"
Uvogin laughed broadly.
"Hey, idiot! Give us a warning before you shout!!"
"Do you want to burst our eardrums too?!"
Nobunaga and Franklin both vented their displeasure.
"My apologies, my apologies. If I warned you, they'd be prepared, right?"
Uvogin apologized nonchalantly.
"Besides, you can easily cover your ears before the sound hits."
"That's true."
Morin nodded, putting away the [Echo Mountain] tool in his hand.
Feitan, Shalnark, Nobunaga, and Franklin: "You're the least qualified to agree with that, aren't you?!"
"Hahahaha!"
Uvogin laughed heartily below, "Morin, you must have a tool that can help remove the toxins, right?!"
"I do."
"Then there's no problem!!"
Uvogin shook his neck, "So hurry and help me clean it up, will you?"
