V2 Chapter 3 - Tech Leak
MCdowell's shop in the suburbs of Tokyo.
Kaito dropped the two kitchen knives on the ground. The two swords with broken teeth sank into the ground. Several kitchen knives were scattered around him, all of them damaged knives.
"I said, even if I don't have my powers anymore, you can't beat me."
Kaito's fast food restaurant apron was still clean, with only some dust left. He removed the dust with his hands and said.
"You'd better go back, son of Ikeda. This one isn't where you can find trouble yet."
On the other hand, the First Sword Master, who was holding a broken samurai sword made of iron, looked down at his hand in disbelief. He had been wearing a good-looking samurai kimono, but now he was covered in swords and blood. Normally in the first sword master's battles only the enemy's blood would be stained on his body, the exception this time was that his suit was filled with only his own blood. His whole body was full of stab wounds, and if Akaigami hadn't just touched him, he would have surely died.
Satan Dowell, who had tried to stop the two of them, also thought of the cracks on the metal body and said angrily.
"Looks like I don't have the power to stop both of you at the same time." Even though it was possible for Satan to defeat either of them one-on-one, he had no luck in stopping them both. In order to stop the two mutants from attacking, the power must be at least twice as powerful as the two of them combined.
"Go ahead and eat it, even if I have to die today, I'll kill you. Even if I don't die because you kill me, I'll kill myself."
First Sword Master said. Kaito folded his arms and stood still, pretending to be disinterested. His form doesn't seem interested in fighting at all.
"Do you think Mirai is the daughter of your wife and I'm her father? I'm sure that's not the case. If you don't believe me, do a DNA test. Don't tell me you haven't already."
The big yakuza's face fell at the words of Akaigami, who pretended to be blunt all the time.
"Go die, what if it's your child?" Akaigami also frowned at the unexpected answer.
"Aw, so you haven't checked yet. By the way, you're thinking that she is not your child just because she has the power of fire, and you're coming to kill me, who used to have fire power? You're a very arrogant person. I think I'll have to hit you again to make sense."
Akaigami pulled out his mind hole and the last remaining kitchen knife, a large meat cleaver, and stepped forward. The samurai raised his sword and prepared to attack.
...
It was in a hall of a traditional Japanese wooden house. A middle-aged man in a black western suit repeatedly kicked a man lying on the floor with his foot.
If you look closely, the person on the floor is a woman in a western dress, and you can see the Sakura brand brooch made of real gold on her coat.
Western dress and golden sakura blossoms are the signature of the second sword master of the Yamaguchi family. Unlike the First Sword Master, who dealt with Japan's internal affairs, the Second Master Tanaka was in charge of foreign affairs.
Now, the second sword master kicked the woman on the floor, not even thinking about it as a woman.
There was a gash on the woman's head, and blood was dripping onto the tatami mat, staining it. The woman's face was purple from being beaten and it was hard to even recognize her face. Aori would not have known if it wasn't for the ground power gathering around the clenched fist. Aori was shocked and didn't fight back even though she knew her guilt. After a while, the middle-aged yakuza stopped the torture.
"You have failed in your duty to protect my son. Today, I will only cut off one finger. But keeping you alive is only to avenge the person who took my son's body. If you fail in the next 3 years, I will have to kill you myself."
The Second Sword Master took out a pocket dagger from his coat pocket, pulled out Aori's fist, and sharply cut off the left pinky. Blood was pooling on the floor, and the girl's face did not even make a sound. His eyes were shining with hatred.
As a bodyguard to Aizawa, a potential lord of the Yamaguchi family, Aori fails in her duty to protect his life. Therefore, her sin deserved death, and if it wasn't for revenge, Aori would have died.
Aizawa's father was the second sword master. The current Yamaguchi family has four sword masters and five young masters of the new generation. The First Lord had Usaki, who was the strongest of the new generation, and Mirai, who had the power of fire, but both of them were not good son jewels that could carry the family name to the next generation, so Aizawa was running number one in the succession chart. The third sword master and the fourth sword master also had children, but they didn't catch up with the previous three. Therefore, Aizawa's death was an irreplaceable loss.
The Second Sword Master looked at Aori with disdain for the last time, turned his back, and left the hall. The other Yakuzas also followed behind the Second Sword Master, not even glancing at Aori.
Only the girl who was lying in a pool of blood was able to control her trembling body and slowly stood up and walked out of the hall. Blood was still flowing from the cut finger, so she had to hold it with her other hand. Aori was about to lose consciousness due to the pain, but she bit her lip and tried hard not to lose consciousness. If she fell in the family yard, no one would come to help him until she bled profusely and died.
"3 years... In these 3 years, I have to take revenge for my master." As Aori walked out into the hall, her gaze automatically went to a cherry blossom tree in the courtyard.
"Aori, look at this tree. It was planted by my grandfather himself when I was born. As long as this tree exists, it was planted so that I could live a long life." When he said those words, Aizawa had just entered middle school. Although autumn is almost over, the cherry blossoms are still in full bloom on the cherry tree. The leaves on other plants in the yard are already turning red and falling.
"The master left earlier than me." The Yamaguchi family adopted Aori, a nomadic house rat, for her power. Aori's earth power used to be at A- rank, and because of that power, she was very useful to the family. She was raised to become an assassin and later became Aizawa's loyal servant. Unfortunately, Aori suffered from a rare disease common among mutants, and her powers began to diminish over time. Right now, Aori's magic power was only B level.
"3 years... Isn't that enough time for all my powers to disappear?" Aori, who was pale as if there was no blood in her body, laughed dryly. The cold breeze of autumn was like a sharp knife for him.
...
Silver knight came to a high-rise apartment on the outskirts of New York City. All the ground floors of this apartment are closed with locked metal folding doors. Only the small door next to the apartment is open for people to come and go. Even though there was a lot of people going in and out of this old apartment, it was all men, and most of them were wearing leather jackets and jeans.
If it's an ordinary apartment, there are children screaming because families live there. The sounds of pots and pans Talking to each other and making noise
Although it must be lively, this apartment can be very peaceful.
Medana, still in her silver military uniform, scanned the interior of the apartment using both radar and infrared vision. Some fully armed men were patrolling downstairs, while others were busy with large, colorful printers to print fake money.
Madana smiled at the sight. Today She caught a big fish. She connected the police radio channel with her suit system and reached out to Linda.
"Linda, do you know there are local police on Long Island? I've caught a big fish here."
After a while, I heard a reply from the other side. "What, you're teleporting our radio station from outside the area? By the way, which team this time?"
Medana looked at the situation inside the building and answered. "I think it's a counterfeiting place, Russians from the sound of their talk."
"You took down the yakuza, and now it's Russian Mafia? I'll contact the police there. Will they need a SWAT team?"
"No need, by the time the local police show up, these guys are all broken."
As the silver warrior spoke, she punched through the metal door with a sword-like fist, and while sliding her other hand in, she tore it open to make a huge hole.
Inside, the Russian mafia are watching how she destroyed the gate of their camp.
"Hello, I didn't knock on the door. But are you going to give me the same look?"
When the Silver Warrior entered the building and began to speak, all the mafia came to their senses. All the guard mafia carried pistols, They surrounded the silver soldier with Uzi guns.
shi... shi... shi... ding ding ding Dedededede...
Within seconds, the old apartment was filled with gunfire and bullet casings littered the floor. But they don't think the silver warrior suit was even scratched except for a few sparks every time the bullets hit it. A few minutes later, the mafia ran out of ammunition.
"Durak, deris' svoyey rukoy" After a while, the mafia, who appeared to be a young leader, spoke to his people in Russian. Medana still understood it intuitively from the translation system of her suit.
"You fools, use your hands to fight."
Soon, all the mafia grabbed their weapons and ran towards Medana. One of them came up with a large fire cleaver and cut down the silver warrior. Madana raised his hand, grabbed the policeman and punched the mafia in the face.
"Mudak!" The Russian still screamed, but he couldn't get up because his nose was broken, and he fell to his knees on the ground. The silver warrior didn't give him time. He raised his right foot and kicked until it was in the air. Then, He was bumped into a pole and screamed with a broken back bone.
Two more Russians have run in. They hit the silver warrior with steel chairs in their hands, but the chairs only broke. The silver warrior moved quickly and pulled the two of them from the column and slammed them head to head. After that, she ran into the running mafia group and started using the electric rings on his forearm.
A dozen people had fallen down with the shouts of "Haha...". Madana's forearm used up all of the electric field, so she used a magnet to pull it back. Only the young leader was left standing.
"Zapakh gryazi!" The man was still speaking in Russian, which Medana did not understand. Even though the translation system was showing what was being said, the Silver Warrior didn't want to read them all the time. So she ran towards the man like an Olympic runner. The man did not say anything. The Russians are quite brave. It is not the kind that is afraid of death. It is the bloodline of the people who defeated the Germans in World War II.
The Russian guy is also a mutant. Before reaching Madana's side, his claws extended. It looks like the claws of a big brown bear. And it seems to be harder than normal metals. But he was too weak to destroy the silver knight suit.
All his nails broken when it touch to Silver Knight Chest. The Russian screamed in terror as he looked back at his broken fingernails.
"It'll break, your nails aren't made of Adamantium." As Madana spoke, she grabbed Eddie Mafia's head and introduced him to the ground.
After a while, the mafia who were still on the top came down. After about five minutes, the local police arrived. Madana ran up the stairs and punched and kicked every mobsters she saw. She doesn't even use his sword.
When police got to the building, they saw the mafia hanging on the stairs. All they saw was mafia lying on the floor, so they just had to group them together and shut them down.
The silver knight continued to rise one after another. On the top floor, two young Russian twins nodded to each other as they looked at the silver knight on CCTV. After that, they came out of the security center room, holding small black boxes in their hands. Once outside the room, he pressed a button on the box and was already wearing the Metal Paladin outfit.
A moment later, the silver warrior coming up from the stairs came face to face with the twins. Madana herself was quite surprised. How come these guys have MP01 suits that are sold in limited quantities even to the Hero Association?
The twins came running towards her with those suits. But the metal paladin suits are a lower level version of the silver knight suit. The technology is very different. Also, Medana can hack devices using Technotelekinesis. Although not all devices are easy to hack. Hacking particularly advanced equipment like the Archmega suit takes a long time. But these dresses were invented by her. These are like her own feet.
Madana jabbed a single finger and the suit's energy core stopped, causing both Russians to fall to the floor due to the heavy suit. The MP01s are experimental, so they're even heavier than the Silver Warrior.
Medana pulled the two Russians off the couch and took them to the rooftop. Before the police come to this floor, there is something to ask them.
Medana put both Russians on the edge of the roof and threatened to drop them.
"Tell me, where did you get these suits?" In the blink of an eye, Madana had checked out these outfits. MP01's, but they don't have the label that they are produced by Metal Paladin. It might be a pirated version, but the manufacturing process is the same. It's not like removing each piece and copying it with a reverse tracking method. No one can copy her technique 100%. So there is only one possibility. The MP01 technology has been leaked and is on the black market. And these technologies could not have been leaked without an insider at the metal-paladin company.
'I need to talk to Freya about this now.' This is Madana's idea. The two Russians are still making loud scream in Russian. Medana, who couldn't stand it anymore, spoke in Russian with the help of a costume translation system.
"You bitches, if you don't tell me, I guarantee you'll end up like a patty in a burger." Medana didn't have to pull both Russian twins up into the air and actually throw them off the ground. The two were startled and screamed loudly.
"Moscow... we got it from the Dmitri family of Moscow, we don't know where they came from. Our Pietro family just bought it back. In Moscow, they're mass producing these." Medana also scolded herself because of what she found out about. The problem turned out to be worse than he thought.
"How did the Dimitris get this technology?"
"We don't know either, but they say the Metal Paladins have their people." Medana knew that he wouldn't know anything more from the two of them, so she put them back on the roof. She had already made it impossible for the metal paladin suits to come back to life, so even if they wanted to run, they couldn't run away.
After that, Madana descended from the roof to the ground. Sebastian is already waiting for him on the street.
"This is a big deal, I'm going to warn Freya."
