Chapter 36 Conversation
In a room filled with smoke and smoke, a young man with dancing silver hair stood in it. There were six objects made of pitch-black bones floating around, about half a meter to one meter in diameter, and shaped like a sight.
Next to him, crouched a yellow spotted leopard with a graceful figure, metal shoulder pads installed on both shoulders, and a body full of explosive power and beauty.
A handsome guy, a beast, an avant-garde weapon with a skeleton style... When the three are combined, they appear in the thick smoke and fog after the explosion, which has a great visual impact.
Even Patton, who had been an agent for many years, was stunned by the sight.
"melon!"
Hayato Jokudera shouted, and the cheetah looked up to the sky and roared. The roaring sound blew away the remaining smoke and fog, and its muscular limbs bent and kicked on the ground, and shot out like an arrow from a string.
Fast, very fast.
Even with visual nerves and thinking speed that surpassed human limits, Barton could only see an afterimage passing by.
But his physical instincts, honed over years of martial arts training and a career as an agent, saved him and he took action before his brain could react.
Bend the bow and nock the arrow.
Three arrows equipped with explosive warheads were fired in advance.
The corridor space is very narrow and there is almost no room for hiding, but the cheetah is not only fast but also very flexible.
Facing the flying arrow, its speed did not slow down at all. When the arrow was approaching, it jumped to the left wall, ran for a few steps on flat ground, jumped to the right wall, and finally repeated the previous action to jump to the ceiling.
In just two breaths, it dodged the arrow and came to Barton, raising its right paw high and about to swing it down.
but……
"Boom boom boom!!!"
There were three violent sounds in succession, but the leopard dodged it, and the arrows shot into the ceiling, floor, and walls exploded, and the air waves carried flames and swept towards both sides of the corridor.
Leopard's attention was focused on Barton. When he reacted, the air wave had already hit, and his whole body was blown away, and then was swallowed by the heat wave in the air.
As for Barton, he rushed towards the house on the right as early as the moment he shot the arrow.
Although due to the difference in speed, the leopard came in front of me before I could pounce, I finally managed to hide inside before the heat wave hit.
Barton hid in the room, stood up quickly, leaned against the wall next to the door, and breathed heavily.
Although the amount of exercise just now was not large, I tried my best. In addition, the evasion was extremely extreme, and the mind was highly concentrated, which consumed a huge amount of energy.
While he was recovering his strength, he listened to the movements outside and was alert to the silver-haired young man's subsequent attacks.
"Da da da..."
Crisp footsteps echoed in the corridor, approaching from far away.
Barton held his breath, preparing to wait for the owner of the footsteps to get closer, then stand up and shoot... His previous shot was blocked by the opponent with unknown items or means, which showed that frontal shooting would not be effective.
The only way is to shoot at close range or attack unexpectedly, leaving the opponent with no time to react and defend.
His bow is made of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s black-tech synthetic materials. It is more powerful than an anti-material sniper rifle and can easily penetrate the armor of a tank.
When shot at close range, even an extraordinary person would have difficulty reacting.
However, just when the opponent was about to enter the ideal shooting range, the footsteps disappeared.
The silver-haired young man stopped moving forward.
What's going on?
Why not move on?
Did you sense the danger, or see through my intentions?
Something unexpected happened at the moment when the winner was about to be decided, which made Barton nervous.
"You are really amazing!"
The voice of the silver-haired young man came from the corridor.
"You don't have the flames of death, but you have nerve reactions and thinking speed that exceed human limits. Your sniper skills and strategic tactics are also top-notch, and your physical functions are trained to the extreme. As an ordinary person, you are really super powerful!"
Barton did not respond, but silently memorized the term "Death Flame".
"To show my respect, let me give my name first!"
"I am Hayato Gokudera, the right-hand man of the tenth generation leader of the Vongola family, and also the tenth generation guardian of Arashi of the family!"
Yudera Hayato, Judai, Guardian of Arashi...
Barton silently wrote down the key words, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked loudly: "Sorry, I can still understand the Judaiime, but I have never heard of the Guardian of Arashi."
This is a very risky move.
Because the other party most likely made the noise deliberately to lure him into revealing his position.
But in order to collect intelligence about the Vongola family, Barton gave up the chance of a sneak attack and exposed his position even though he knew it might be a trap.
But he was not a noob who didn't have any countermeasures. The moment he finished speaking, he rushed out of the room and prepared to run to the opposite room.
But when he just rushed out of the room and reached the corridor, he caught a glimpse of the silver-haired young man standing at the other end of the corridor from the corner of his eye. He just stood there quietly without any intention of attacking.
Barton couldn't help but stop and look at him in the corridor.
A relieved smile appeared on Jokudera Hayato's face, and then he said: "I know you are deliberately trying to spy on me, and I also understand what the people behind you are worried about, but..."
The expression on Jokudera Hayato's face suddenly became very unhappy, and his tone became a little more serious, "If you want to know, just ask directly! What's the point of hiding in the dark and monitoring our every move?"
"If only it was as easy as you said!" Barton stared at Hayato and said: "You suddenly appeared in Harlem, and then fought with the local gangs on the street and dominated them. Your origins, your power
, all your actions are causing others to feel uneasy. Who dares to contact you without knowing anything?"
"Yes!"
Gokudera Hayato was like performing a Sichuan Opera face change, instantly changing from anger to giggling while touching his head.
Is this guy a fool?
Barton was speechless for a while.
"But in your situation, this is what you call mediocrity!" Hayato Jokudera didn't pay attention to Barton's expression and said with a relaxed look.
Then, his expression changed again and became extremely serious.
Barton thought something unexpected had happened, and his vigilance, which he had just relaxed for a moment, became tense again.
"But I can't tolerate my family's every move being monitored." Hayato Gokudera raised his left index finger, pointed at Barton and said, "If you want to know anything, just send someone to ask. It's not a big deal.
To be honest, we are also confused about some things, and we plan to ask important people in this world to understand the situation. This country is behind you, please find a representative and let’s talk about it!”
"This world?"
Barton didn't pay attention to what Hayato Gokudera mentioned, but instead noticed a key word in his words.
