"How does Aki's junk feel?" "Denji-kun, is this really the time to be talking about that?" "Just asking casually." Denji felt somewhat jealous. He had never been actively looked at by a girl before. The only person who had ever actively looked at it was Arata.
"It doesn't look as good as Denji-kun's." Reze's single sentence instantly made Denji ecstatic. Crack!!! The sound of a whip lashing echoed through the air as the ultra-long black whip swung toward the two of them on the ground. Denji hurriedly pushed Reze out of the way. Crack!! The long whip struck the ground, leaving a long and deep scar. If that had hit a person, it would absolutely tear their skin open and shred their flesh.
"Denji-kun, go hide. Leave the rest to me. I don't want to have to deal with you while dealing with her." "Got it. If anything goes wrong, I'll step in and save Reze immediately." "Save me? Aren't you afraid of being controlled?" "I'm not afraid. As long as you're in danger, I'll absolutely step up. Even if I get controlled, I believe Master will definitely come to save me."
Denji's words brought a warmth to Reze's heart. Riding on an explosion, she charged into the sky toward Asmodeus. Crack!!! The long whip danced below, forming layers of protection. Reze moved like a highly agile secret agent, her body constantly weaving through the black whip. Once she closed the distance, she waved her hand, and a bomb exploded right at Asmodeus's feet. She thought the blast would cripple her, but the very next second, Asmodeus's legs completely healed.
At the exact same time, a random male somewhere in the island nation successfully lost both of his legs. "It's useless. I'm not the same as I used to be." Asmodeus saw right through Reze's scheme. With a pull of her hand, the black whip rapidly retracted. Crack!! Reze was bound instantly in mid-air.
Boom!!! An explosion rang out. But when the smoke cleared, the black whip remained as sturdy as ever. Seeing Reze tied up in the sky, Denji couldn't stand still down below. Just as he was about to make a move, someone suddenly shouted, "Die for this great one!!" Power hurled a steel blade into the sky. Clang!! But it was solidly blocked by the long whip, and she too was instantly bound in the air.
The black whip now moved like a long snake, darting rapidly down toward Power. Power quickly rolled away. Bang!! The whip struck the earth, sinking into the ground. When it re-emerged, the black whip wrapped around Power's ankles, hoisting her upside down into the sky. Boom!! Following close behind, several kunai struck the whip once again. When the explosions ended, the whip was still completely unharmed.
This instead drew the whip's attention. It shot downward, wrapping up Tenten, Himeno, and the rest of the women, hoisting them all into the air together. In the blink of an eye, the entire female Devil Hunter squad was wiped out. Down below, Denji refused to just stand by and watch. Using all his strength, he hoisted a car and hurled it into the sky. Mid-flight, the whip pierced cleanly through it, leaving the car suspended in the air. This was quickly followed by several more cars flying up. "Reze!!!" Denji screamed alongside the final car.
Reze instantly understood his intention. She fired a ballistic blast from her head, but she didn't aim at the cars—she aimed at Denji. The explosion went off, blasting Denji straight back to the ground. "Denji-kun, run away! You're no match for her. Even if you chop off her hands and feet, she can regenerate them instantly."
This crucial intel reached Denji's ears. He originally wanted to use Reze to detonate the cars and distract Asmodeus, allowing him to launch a sneak attack and sever her arms. Now, it seemed his idea was way too naive. "Denji, go find Arata!!" Himeno shouted. Right now, everyone was pinning their hopes on Arata. "No one is leaving." The whip plunged toward the ground again. As if it had a mind of its own, it quickly bounded toward Denji to tie him up.
But just then, a fierce wind suddenly kicked up all around them. A massive swarm of flies, wasps, and mosquitoes swept in. The incredibly tiny size of the insects made the massive whip completely useless. As the insect army swarmed her face, Asmodeus quickly retracted her whip. The women bound in the sky began to free-fall. In the instant the control was lifted, Reze saved Himeno and the others. Power landed on her own first. She watched Tenten rapidly plummeting but made no move to catch her.
The distance was a bit too far, and Power judged that she wouldn't be able to catch her anyway, so she might as well just stand there and listen for the splat. "Captain Tenten!!" Just as Tenten was getting closer and closer to the ground, a man suddenly appeared and caught her in his arms. The two slowly floated down to the ground. "Arata-senpai!!" Looking at the man who had just saved her, Tenten's eyes welled up with excited tears.
"Sorry I'm late." "You're not late. Arata-senpai, it's so good to see you." Tenten threw her arms around Arata. The entire reason Tenten came to Tokyo this time was strictly for Arata. Otherwise, she wouldn't have ignored her teammates' advice and led a squad here all by herself. Now that she was hugging the person she wanted to see, everything felt worth it.
"You guys go rest on the side. Leave the rest to me." Arata set Tenten down on the ground. "Arata-senpai, why has your voice gotten so high-pitched?" "You could actually hear that?" "Yeah. Don't tell me... your junk is gone too?" Tenten said in shock. As soon as her feet hit the ground, she reached back for a crotch grab.
But Arata caught her hand before she could make contact. She didn't manage to grab anything. "What are you doing?! Using that move on your senior?" "I just wanted to make sure." "No need to check, mine is still there."
"It's okay! Even if Arata-senpai lost his junk, I wouldn't mind." "You might not mind, but I definitely mind." Arata didn't stick around any longer, riding the wind to fly high into the sky. At that moment, Himeno and the others landed next to Tenten.
"Thank you. We really owed you for your help with the Snake Devil last time too," Himeno thanked Reze. "No need to thank me. After all, Arata is my teacher." "May I know your name?" "My name is Hou Sai Lei." This was the stage name Arata had helped Reze come up with.
"Hou Sai Lei." Himeno felt the name was incredibly awkward to pronounce. "Reze!" Right then, Denji ran over to greet her. Hearing the name Denji shouted, and noticing that the real Reze wasn't anywhere around, Himeno instantly figured out the identity of the devil in front of her. "You're Reze!!"
"Uh..." Reze glanced at the approaching Denji. She had wanted to maintain some mystery, but Denji's single shout completely blew her cover. "That's right, Himeno-senpai. It's me. Hou Sai Lei is my other name," Reze said, looking slightly embarrassed. "I always knew you were far from simple. I didn't expect your strength to be even greater than Denji's."
"Himeno-senpai, since Arata-senpai has arrived, I'll be taking my leave now." "Don't go just yet." Himeno wanted to stop Reze and take the opportunity to ask her about joining the squad. But by this time, Reze had already flown away. "Himeno-senpai, about Arata-senpai... he..." Tenten immediately cut in.
"What's wrong with Arata?" "His voice has gotten so high-pitched. I suspect..." "No way!! I clearly remember Arata never being attacked by Asmodeus." While the people on the ground were discussing it, Asmodeus had already been beaten to the ground by Arata in the sky.
Her injuries weren't regenerating at all. Instead, she stared in sheer panic at Arata as he slowly floated down. "What is going on!!!" "Could it be you..." "That's right. To deal with you, your big bro went and got a little minor surgery. I'm a genderless person right now."
"Attacks from men are ineffective against you. Attacks from women get redirected. The genderless people you modified get completely mind-controlled by you. The only one who can actually hurt you is a genderless person that you didn't attack." "No... don't kill me! I can be your woman." "I already told you I don't like women who are way too open. Plus, you rode on a shark, and you've eaten countless men's junk. Honestly, looking at you right now just disgusts me!!"
With a swift strike of his blade, Asmodeus's head fell to the ground. This time, the corpse did not disappear.
