Tanuki Rise of the Yokai Clan

Chapter 200: The Blizzard Group

Chapter 200: The Blizzard Group

"He is over there!"

"Catch up!"

"Don't let him slip away!"

The Blizzard Group, the biggest faction group on the Hero Association, worked as usual, and now, their target was Banero, a C-Class criminal and serial arsonist.

Many buildings had been burnt by him, and many victims appeared because of him.

As a hero, they couldn't allow his actions to continue any longer!

When they saw him, they quickly chased after him and got ready to catch him as this criminal needed to be taken down.

Fubuki, their leader, also prioritized their group to chase after him, so they did that.

With their teamwork, networks, strategy, and a little luck (most of it), they were able to find Banero, and they quickly chased after him. Passing over the crowd and many other places, they quickly cornered Banero.

"Stop!"

"You have been surrounded!"

"You should give up! With this number, there is nothing that you can do!"

With their superiority in numbers, no one thought that Banero could escape from them.

Standing in the alley and surrounded by the Blizzard Group, Banero grinned under his hoodie.

"Hehehe.... do you think I will give up so easily? I am not going to back down! Let me burn you so you know what the price of messing up with me is!"

Suddenly, he took several bottles of Molotov cocktails from his hoodie. In the past, he worked as a barista, who was famous for his acrobatic moves, but then to develop his skill even further, he tried to use fire, but an accident happened, and he burnt something.

While nothing had happened, he saw the beauty of a fire, and from that point, he thought that fire was beautiful.

Starting from a bonfire, his greed continued before he started to burn a building.

By then, he had become a pyromaniac, and his goal was to burn the world, so there was no way he was going to give up!

"Hahaha, burn!"

However, Banero was the only C-Rank villain, and he could do nothing in front of the group of B-Rank heroes, the Blizzard Group.

"Fight him!"

"Beat him hard!"

"Don't give mercy!"

Being surrounded by many heroes, Banero could only be passively beaten.

"Ah! Ah! It hurts! Forgive me! Forgive me!"

He begged, but they didn't give mercy, so in the end, he was beaten until he was black and blue, yet; because of this, they let their guard down and let one of the Molotovs burn.

*Crack!*

The glass bottle cracked, and the fire burnt the gasoline inside.

Unlike normal Molotoves, Banero had developed his own special; when the fire burnt the gasoline, it would burn everything.

"Ah, it's the fire!"

"Stop it! Stop it!"

"Water! We need water!"

Everyone panicked.

As B-Rank Hero, they weren't weak, but even so, they couldn't defeat a fire.

The fire started to spread everywhere and started to burn some parts of the building.

As they became panicked, suddenly, the fire was pulled by something before it disappeared.

"That's..."

"Geez, how can you let your guard down in this situation?"

A helpless voice sounded and caused everyone to be excited.

"Fubuki-sama!"

"As expected of Fubuki-sama."

"Marvelous performance, Fubuki-sama!"

When they panicked as they didn't know what to do, their leader, Fubuki, became their light and solved their predicament.

Unlike the others, she wore different clothes, as if telling everyone that she was the leader of this group.

Yet, as they were immersed in their success, Banero, who was beaten, moved slightly. His fingers twitched as he opened his eyes with all of his might. Everything might be hazy, but he could hear clearly how happy they were. Hearing their happy voices, he was filled with hatred.

Dammit!

If they didn't gang him up, then he would win!

However, this hero group was like a gang!

He hated this hero group and wanted to destroy them!

I want power!

He screamed inside his heart, and suddenly he felt his body trembling. He felt that his body was hot as if he was burning.

"ARRRGGGHHH! DIE!"

He cried an angry roar as his body twitched before it transformed.

The scream startled them, but the intense heat that came from Banero changed their expression.

"Wh-What's happening?"

"Didn't we defeat him?"

"He-He becomes a monster!"

Yes, Banero became a monster!

Banero's body wasn't those of a human. His body became a giant Molotov with two hands and two legs. He also had a face made of fire, along with a burning head.

"Hahaha... amazing! I feel boundless power inside me!"

"Everyone! Hurry up and get away!"

Fubuki realized the situation wasn't good and quickly told all of them to evacuate.

Everyone was stunned. Frankly, they wanted to run away, but hearing Fubuki's words, how could they run away?

"No way!"

"There is no way that we will run away from this monster, Fubuki-sama!"

"We are going to fight this monster with you!"

They were all the followers of Fubuki!

All of them were members of the Blizzard Group!

They weren't a group of cowards that would cower behind their leader's back!

They were going to fight along with their leader!

"You guys..."

Fubuki was moved before she turned her attention toward the monster once again.

"So, let's do it! Let's fight this monster together!"

"YES, FUBUKI-SAMA!"

"Have you talked enough? Then let me burn you!"

Banero, who had turned into a Molotov-like monster, unleashed a flamethrower-like attack toward all of them!

"Hahaha, be burnt to the cinder!"

With how they had beaten him, it was impossible for him to forgive them!

He was going to burn all of them into a cinder!

All the members of the Blizzard Group were startled and could only see a sea of flame was about to swallow them, but their leader protected all of them!

"Hurry up and get away!"

"Fubuki-sama!"

Fubuki erected a psychic barrier to protect herself and her subordinates.

As an esper, it was an easy thing for her, yet the flame of this monster was stronger than she had thought.

"So what if you can block my attack?! Die while being swallowed by my flame! DIE!"

"Kuh!"

Fubuki brought her everything to block this flame, yet as expected, it was tough!

While she was an esper, she wasn't as strong as her sister. Moreover, she also needed to protect all of her subordinates as this attack would have burnt all of them!

"Hurry up and get away!"

All of her subordinates showed painful expressions, yet what could they do?

In this situation, they were only her burden!

"Hurry up! I can't hold on any longer!"

Everyone cried tears before they followed Fubuki's order!

"Fubuki-sama! Please hold on! We'll call it reinforcement!"

"Water! Let's get water!"

"Let's get a firefighter too!"

With how intense the flame was, it started to burn the surrounding building and caused even more panic.

Still, Fubuki sighed in relief when all of her subordinates ran away.

However, she could tell that this was her end.

"Kuh... is this my end?"

She wanted to show her sister that she wasn't an existence that needed to be protected and that she was also strong enough to match her sister's strength.

That's why...

"That's why I can't fall here!"

She strengthened her barrier, but in the end, the fire was stronger.

Yet, when she thought that everything was going to end, something fell from the sky and smashed the monster into pieces.

*Crack!*

A bottle of Molotov is like a monster cracked into pieces before the fire was swallowed, as if a fire had never existed in this place, but without a doubt, it existed as the scorched mark could be seen in the surrounding area.

The monster was unable to do anything and was destroyed in one attack.

Fubuki opened her mouth wide as she was unable to believe the scene before her.

Then her eyes met with the person who had saved her.

He was a young man.

She could tell that he was younger than her.

However, the young man ignored her and walked away.

She blinked her eyes and quickly chased after him. "Wa-Wait a moment!"

She wasn't going to let go of this chance!

With this young man, her Blizzard Group was going to become stronger!
