Anime Survival - Chapter 59

Crowley joined his palms together, the ground beneath Crowley’s feet liquefied again before turning into liquid silver, then solidified and a dozen solid silver spikes transpired across the void towards James.

James also joined his palms, from which a spark and a draught escaped and opened them as a blue flash of lightning passed through his hands, followed by a shock wave and a warm wind that deflected the silver spikes.

Astonished Crowley wanted to put his palms together again but at the same time James stopped and struck the air in front of him.

The air around his right fist cracked as a small amount of aura in the form of swirling fists hit the Crowley 2 meters away.

Crolwley was hit by Nen’s fist which broke his ribs before ejecting him several meters further.

James rushed towards him wanting to finish him off quickly, but before he could get to him, he stopped and bent down to avoid a cannonball that had nearly shredded him.

Grand, who had just destroyed a militiamen group, jumped from a building which then exploded and threw a punch in the direction of James.

James narrowly avoided the powerful punch that shattered the ground, but before he had time to breathe a red lightning bolt passed behind him, feeling the strange fluctuations in the air, James used all his last reserves of Nen and concentrated them on his back and the back of his skull.

*BOOM*

A violent explosion sounded, the shock wave hit him so hard that all his internal organs trembled, causing him to fly about ten metres before he landed on the ground.

Crowley who had just gotten up looked at Grand and Kimblee with a slight anger.

“I didn’t need your help.”

“Haha calm down Jack, it was just a little help.” Said Kimblee with joy and a big friendly smile, but Crowley and Grand ignored him again as if he didn’t exist.

“Stop chattering, let’s hurry up and get on with our mission.”

Grand interrupted the two of them as they moved towards the city center, Kimblee and Crowley followed him, but suddenly the three of them felt a warm air current followed by a powerful shock wave that threw them backwards, hitting them hard.

Even the surrounding buildings trembled slightly under the power of the shock wave.

The three who were pushed back, finally managed to regain their balance with difficulty, as their eyes fell on James, who was constantly coughing up blood and walking towards them.

His shirt and jacket was completely blown away by the explosion, revealing a badly burned back, arms and legs.

“You managed to survive my explosion, interesting.” Says Kimblee with a smile.

“*Cough* *Cough* you almost killed me you bastard, three to one aren’t you ashamed *Cough*. Didn’t your mothers teach you pride and dignity?”

James joked as he coughed up blood, he staggered towards them before stopping and removing two scarlet stones from his pockets.

“I found *Cough* his little “jewels” before I destroyed your laboratories*Cough* .”

Seeing the two scarlet stones in James’ hands, the faces of the three changed.

“Though you don’t know what these stones are made of,*Cough* as an alchemist you must have some idea of how they’re produced.”

Hearing that, Grand and Crowley’s eyes went dark with a little reminiscence, only Kimblee was still smiling.

“If you didn’t know it, *Cough* this stone is made of souls, every time you use it you destroy a human soul *Cough* and make it suffer, for example, the two stones in my hands contain exactly 1691 souls.

isn’t that despicable?”

Crowley eagerly walked towards James as his face became serious again.

“Assuming what you say is true, you too used those two stones earlier, aren’t you as despicable as we are?”

James’s face didn’t change, he just joined his palms together as Crowley, Kimblee and Grand did the same.

“I have a feeling we’re going to have some fun!” Kimblee shouted as he opened his palms, several red flash crossed the street and completely surrounded James.

*BOOM.*

A powerful explosion ravaged all the buildings for over 100m creating waves of flames and a powerful shock wave razing everything in its path.

“Hahaha! Isn’t it beautiful?! Haha…”

Kimblee laughed maniacally but suddenly a warm wind blew them away.

“Look out!” Crowley screamed and clapped his hands on the floor.

The next second, an indescribable shock wave razed everything in a circle of 200 yards, sweeping away the ground, the debris from Kimblee’s explosion, and even the flames.

Fortunately for Kimblee and Grand, Crowley wrapped them in a ball of liquid silver, which absorbed most of the shockwave.

Kimblee laughed maniacally but suddenly a warm wind blew them away.

“Come behind me!!” Crowley screamed and clapped his hands on the floor.

The next second, an indescribable shock wave razed everything in a circle of 200 yards, sweeping away the ground, the debris from Kimblee’s explosion, and even the flames.

Fortunately for Kimblee and Grand, Crowley wrapped them in a ball of liquid silver that absorbed most of the shockwave.

After the shock wave dissipated, the three left the silver ball and saw a crater about 100m in diameter.

“You’re right, I’ve used the stones well, but I’m not like you!”

James walked towards them with his body covered in red lightning, all his burns were immediately healed.

“I spent a month talking to every soul in those stones, apologizing to them and asking for their help.”

“You think you’re three against one but in reality you’re three against 1692.”

James slammed his palms together and hit the ground.
