Chapter 27: Giant

At present, although William feels that Ito's performance is a bit strong, his shortcomings are also obvious. As long as you can keep up with his speed, guns can cause considerable damage to him. So from this point of view, Ito's threat is not too big, at least he can be described as a humanoid creature.

And just a few seconds after this idea was born, it was completely crushed to pieces.

In the small open space outside the apartment, a terrifying cyclone suddenly erupted, carrying flames and forming an extremely spectacular fire tornado. Ito stood in the eye of the storm and grabbed Toyokawa Kamikii's double blades with both hands.

"No, I can't hold it anymore!"

Fengchuan felt the skyrocketing temperature and scarce oxygen around him, and he shouted in panic, decisively entering a state of illusion, appearing as a cloud of mist and slipping away.

William, who had just been hit against the wall by the cyclone, stood up with difficulty with the help of his subordinates. He looked up at the fire tornado with a bitter expression. At this moment, smoke was coming out of his whole body, and although his hair was still there, there was a burnt smell coming from it.

"Major, Team Leader Noguchi is here!" A subordinate heard the news from the walkie-talkie and happily reported to William.

"Fengchuan! Hold him back! I know you still have real skills!" Upon hearing this, William immediately shouted towards the front.

Fengchuan, who was hiding in the illusion, rolled his eyes. How much money is it a month? He is not willing to risk his life. If he really can't do without the various entertainments of human society, he would have found a way to retreat to the mountains with his mother long ago.

"Noguchi is coming. Wait until he arrives. I'll let Hoshino Nanako perform a show just for you!"

"A word is settled!"

Fengchuan's voice came out from nowhere.

And the next moment, he appeared behind Ito in the eye of the storm.

Who told you that I only have these two knives?
Double guns activated!

Boom!

Before Ito could attack, he appeared in another direction in the blink of an eye.

It's just like the flash fights that are common in anime.

Toyokawa used his ability to walk in the void to continuously shoot at Ito from all directions, making the latter overwhelmed.

For a moment, from the looks of the situation, Ito was actually suppressed.

In just less than a minute, Fengchuan's "flash" speed slowed down significantly. It can be seen that it was his burst skill just now and it could not last long.

Ito blocked the bullet again, looked at Fengchuan who did not leave immediately, and slowly said: "Do you know? My favorite game type is JRPG turn-based."

Fengchuan breathed in the thin air around him greedily. Hearing this, he did not want to be outdone: "Oh, then are you going to say 'It's my turn now'?"

Izuku shook his head.

"In fact, I don't know the limit of this body. Next, I will release all my negative emotions. Maybe even I can't control myself. So, now is your last chance to escape."

Before Toyokawa could continue speaking, Ito's body gradually became illusory, and it looked like it was about to merge into one with the flames.

William could not see the increasingly violent fire tornado from his position. At this time, he was busy arranging for the residents in the area to be cleared, blocking the streets, and stopping some news media or self-media who wanted to get close without knowing the consequences.

But before Noguchi Takeshi could provide support, Toyokawa appeared in front of William in a disheveled state, with a look of horror on his face.

"We can't win! We can't win at all! Call the Self-Defense Forces and the U.S. military over!"

"What happened?" Before William could finish his question, a gust of hot wind swept in. The flames were like dust, blowing around and then extinguished.

But it also made the originally invisible Ito appear again in everyone's sight.

No, he can't even be called a human being now.

The terrifying body, nearly thirty meters high, made the small apartment next to it seem like a special effects prop, just like the water element in many artistic imaginations. What appeared in front of everyone at this time was a magnificent fire element monster.

He had no legs, and a tornado of fire still remained at his bottom. The rest of his torso was a normal body and arms, and his head had no facial features, but William could feel the other person's gaze.

The morale of the investigation team was crushed in an instant.

When facing a monster like Godzilla, shouldn't it be Ultraman who comes out to deal with it?
Some people looked at William, as if asking: Boss, if you don’t transform, we’re going to be in trouble.

“Try to protect it.”

In the sky, an object resembling a missile with a tail flame was coming straight towards the fire giant from not far away.

The giant waved his hand, and the missile exploded, scattering a large amount of white dust, which covered up the raging fire.

The next second, dozens of missiles came from all directions with flames trailing behind them!

"Major, it's Team Leader Noguchi who's here. He said the 'Water Bomb Unit' has been assembled. He wants us to protect the civilians in the area and find cover wherever possible."

William finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The so-called water bomb unit was proposed by him when he applied for Toyokawa's assistance. He believed that since Ito's ability was related to fire, he would apply for an emergency joint organization of a "water bomb unit" with the fire department and the Self-Defense Force to come to support.

Originally he didn't have much hope because time was too tight, but he didn't expect that he underestimated Takeshi Noguchi. This guy was quite reliable at critical moments.

Chu tu tu tu——

The sounds of a large number of helicopters were heard, launching a second round of attacks on the fire giant, whose fire seemed to have been greatly reduced after being bombarded by a series of missiles.

"Follow orders, team up to find shelter nearby and protect the people!"

William gave the order, as he was too close to the battlefield and might be taken away by Ito's attack at any time.

"Yes!"

The investigation teams left one after another, leaving the scene of the fight between gods to the main force.

At this time, the fire giant finally fought back. He aimed his right hand at a helicopter. In the next breath, a jet of flames instantly enveloped the fire helicopter completely.

The pilot died without feeling any pain. The entire helicopter dissolved and twisted like a fireball. It was ejected thousands of meters by the airflow and fell to the ground like a meteor, smashing a company leader who had been speaking on the stage for half a day while a team-building activity was taking place in the park into a pulp.

There were screams and fireworks everywhere, and the crowd pushed and shoved each other and scattered.

"All means were changed to long-range strikes. The helicopters retreated. The Self-Defense Forces were called in to conduct bombing tests. The fire missiles were fired at a lower frequency. The main method was harassment and delay."

Takeshi Noguchi issued orders at the temporary command center based on the situation on the scene.

After all this happened, only five minutes had passed before the fire giant seemed to have finally adapted to its body and floated towards the apartment building ahead.
