Night Raid: Reborn

Chapter 49: Tatsumi vs Torosu (Part 3)

"That's some body, for me!!" Kaizoku said.

"What?!" Leone said.  

"Mind Swap!!" Kaizoku said.

Kaizoku then fired his mind swapping beam at Leone in hopes of switching bodies.

But TJ picked up the squirrel and threw it the way at the last second. In doing so, TJ got his mother to return to her body and Kaizoku back into the squirrel's body.

"That was a close one, huh?" TJ chuckled.

"Yeah, if I only knew what happened." Leone said.

Mine came to her senses and realized she was in her body again.

"TJ!!"Mine ran over to her son and hugged him tightly.

"Wait, that was you in that squirrel mom?" TJ asked.

"Yeah, that stupid weird ass rodent pulled one over on me." Mine huffed.

"You should probably get out of here mom, it's not safe yet." TJ said.

"How come?" Mine inquired.

But as Mine was having a conversation with her son, the entire area got leveled which caused Mine to be sent flying away.

"God damn it!" Mine screamed.

"Mom!" TJ yelled as he watched his mother get swept away by the harsh winds that were caused by Tatsumi and Torosu's battle.

Torosu was giving Tatsumi a beating of a lifetime. Tatsumi couldn't keep track of Torosu's lightning speed movements.

"Come now. Feel free to make this more entertaining for me if you'd like." Torosu said as he continued his assault on Tatsumi.

Tatsumi managed to dodge an attack and put some distance between them by getting to a rock.

Torosu then unleased and attack called the Saw Slash, Tatsumi was barely able to dodge it and when he looked down at the damage, he was shocked. 

Torosu managed to carve an entire gash through the planet. 

"What the fuck kind of technique?" Tatsumi said in utter disbelief. 

"Not to be a bore, but if I happen to so choose, this planet's destruction will be a matter of mere seconds." Torosu said. "Quite fitting it should share that fate as Esdeath's tribe though."

"Damn it he's got me in a pinch, I can't win." Tatsumi acknowledged. 

"There's no way we just saw that." TJ said.

"Fuck that guy." Leone growled.

"That bastard just carved a trench through Zulo." Chelsea said. "Is Tatsumi flying by the seat of his pants or something? This fight is looking hella one-sided now."

"Of course it does." Akame said. "Why? Because Torosu is stronger than any of could have possibly imagined. There's nothing we do at this point. He's just too powerful."

In the Spirit Realm:

"What are you saying?" Sayo said. "Tatsumi can't just give up."

"This isn't good at all." Bulat said. "Tatsumi is more or less it at full power and this Torosu guy is wiping the floor with him with half his strength?"

"Worse than that." King San said. "Torosu said he's using less than half."

"Bullshit!" Najenda snapped.

"Damn it. I knew nothing good would come of this." King San said as he fell to his knees. " That's why I told him not to fight.... he's no match for Torosu."
