Robot Akame Ga Kill!

Chapter Thirty-Five: Kill the Doctor

Meanwhile, at the Hideout, Akame and Toby were having a long, drawn-out fight, while Jessie and Lubbock were fighting off the Giants behind them, Akame had to defend herself against the mechanical assassin. They counterattacked each other's attacks and defenses. However, Toby, left way too many openings, not to mention that he managed to put Akame in a corner for a short while until she found an opening for her to strike - and struck she had. She chopped off one of Toby's arm, blood hurled out of his arm like a runaway water fountain. His face was not of that of pain but of frustration. He slid on the ground like a typical skater.

"If I cannot finish you in a single hit, then I have to chop you to pieces. And its gonna hurt. You better get ready." Akame threatened with a venomous, cold tone in her voice.

Toby scoffed with a helpful smug on his face. "Hmm, that's where you're mistaken. Given my condition, I can't feel pain anymore!" Toby dashed towards the skilled assassin with all of he's got. He jumped up and swung his bladed heel directly towards Akame; only to be frustrated when she expertly dodged that attack. He leaned back, grew a blade from his stubbed arm and struck on Akame's blade. However, what Akame does not know was that he activated a gun, from his mouth, and fired. Akame, acting quickly, dodged the bullet and chopped his arm off. He grew a gun from his new flesh wound, another gun, and fired again, only for Akame to repeat and sliced his other leg.

Toby was about to turn around until he was immediately struck by a rogue, blue, energy sphere. He was sent flying to the ceiling, bounced off and then was struck again by another blue orb added by a spear that lodged through his chest.

"Damn you both, this wasn't even your fight!" Toby hissed.

"And?" Jessie asked.

"We just got bored, so we attacked you for shits and giggles." Lubbock said, earning Jessie's giggle, though a little disgusted about how he acted. She was far warned not to intervene on their assassinations, much more like Braedey had by Professor TimeLine.

"Ah, well, at the rate this was going, I would have lost that battle anyway. But it shouldn't be me you should be worried about." He said.

"What boy?" Akame asked.

"The boy with a strange watch with the power to transform into Danger Beasts. I was far warned by Seryu to not cross paths with him. Dr. Stylish said that he could be powerful than..."

"You're talking about my cousin?" Jessie asked, "Er... I mean Braedey?"

"I guess he is." Akame said coldly. "What does Dr. Stylish want with him?"

"Isn't it obvious? He wants to weaponise him. Ever since his fight with Esdeath, she became interested in the boy. Anyone who strikes down the General must be purged. And he's gonna start by testing on that replica Seryu found on the ground."

"What watch?" Jessie asked.

"The one that has a dark demon face as the insignia." Dr. Stylish said. "It's in his lab right now. And once he perfected this weapon, not only Braedey the Transformer will fall, but the whole revolution will!"

Akame clutched on her sword tighter, her heart rate increased to Road Runner levels, and her eyes shaded into a darker shade of red. "Braedey can overcome anything thrown at him." She said with a cool head with a hint of rage thrown in. "But this I cannot allow."

"Oh, and who says, Aka..."

Akame, with a clean cut, sliced Toby's head off. "Because I said so."

Jessie and Lubbock backed off from an enraged Akame.

"Let's save our friend." She said.
