In front of Aria's Mansion
All the Pains were ready for the fight, Deva path had sent Preta to attack first, he had a chakra rod in his hand. Mine had shot her pumpkin at Preta path but at the moment she did that, three things surprised her. First, it was the recoil that she received from shooting Pain that made her fall to her butt, second, it was the giant laser that came out from her best friend. The power used by her teigu was so strong that it overheated from a single shot. Everyone had to cover themselves with their arms and fix their foot on the ground to not be sent flying from the strong shockwave created from the blast. Mine knew that pumpkin could power up proportionally to the danger she was in but this was unexpected to her. Was she in that much danger by being attacked by this fat guy? and third, it was what Pain did next. Pain, surprised at the sudden shockwave and the giant beam coming towards him, widened his eyes and immediately had to put his hands in front of him to create a barrier that absorbed the blast. Night raid was astonished. What did this weirdo did just now?
"What!? Impossible! How could he defend himself from that powerful blast from pumpkin just like that!?" Mine shouted, her eyes widened, and seemed to be almost jumping out from its orbit. 'And now I won't be able to use pumpkin again until I do maintenance again!'. She thought desperately.
"Any power used against God is meaningless". Deva stated, and Mine chuckled.
"A God? what this guy is babbling about?". Mine asked while Preta retreated to near the other paths.
"Mine don't waste your time trying to understand this guy. Leave the rest to us!". Bulat stated going for an attack at Asura who dodged his spear and countering with a strong punch that he defended with his spear and its handle cracked a bit. "Are you kidding me!? how strong is this guy?". Bulat asked panicked.
"Damn! We're left with no choice if I can at least take one of them down...". Akame said while attacking Human path who had to dodge her slashes but the Pain was alerted when he felt something holding his leg, it was one of Lubbock's wires. "Now Akame! It's your chance!". Akame went for the kill, she slashed Pain on the chest and black markings started to appear on the Human path's body.
"Yes! One down!". Akame and Lubbock celebrated.
'Akame of the demon sword Murasame... according to that guard's memories, her sword is coated in a deadly poison that can kill someone within seconds, her relieved expression after the first slash just confirms this. Sasori would be delighted to analyze every part of that sword... huhu. Too bad for her that she can't kill what's already dead...' Deva path thought while eyeing the situation from afar with Naraka path on his side.
"She defeated one of Pain sama friends, this is not good...". Sayo said worriedly.
"I don't think Pain will lose that easily, let us just observe and see what happens". Tatsumi said.
"Yeah, someone with such godly powers can't lose like that". Ieyasu said.
"I hope you guys are right...". Sayo said turning her face to the battle.
The human path was being consumed by the marks on his body and Night Raid was happy that one of their enemies was down or at least, that's what they thought. Akame was about to turn to face the next enemy but she heard something that terrified her.
"You're not the only one that has a one-hit killing move". Human path said, surprising everyone. He then grabbed Akame's arm, starting to pull her soul out. The soul from Akame's arm was visible, making night raid panic.
'What is that!? is that... Akame's soul!? what kind of teigu can do such a thing...!?' Leone thought, paralyzed by the fear upon seeing an astral projection of her friend being sucked out. She already had felt that something was not right with this guy since their encounter in that tavern not too long ago.
