Chereads / Infinite Worlds: Attack on Titan / Chapter 70 - Cleaning of the City

Chapter 70 - Cleaning of the City

The sound of artillery fire throughout the Trost district continued from morning until one o'clock in the afternoon and then gradually stopped. After Takashi and the others were ready, they began the cleanup operation. 

After taking the elevator to the wall, Takashi saw the familiar Captain Kitz Weilman again. 

Many of the Garrison soldiers looked at Takashi with slight relief. He is not someone unknown now and although he is not like Eren, his reputation has spread all over the walls and even started to reach the ears of the common people.

After two major battles, Takashi was someone known among the Garrison Corps soldiers who participated in the war and managed to save many children of worried families. He also led the operation that successfully sealed the wall, everyone had at least seen him yesterday. 

The two hundred soldiers of the garrison corps participating in this operation already knew him, and many others might recognize him.    

Captain Kitz looked at Takashi, the supposed "strongest bodyguard" and the one who was now known as the "strongest recruit" with a serious expression.   

Although he had already cleared his grievances with him, it didn't mean that he had good feelings towards Takashi. In fact, she still hated Takashi very much, but that would only remain silent. 

Because of his punishment that miraculously saved him, Kitz and Takashi's grievances remained private, otherwise, Takashi would now be awaiting a war trial. If such a trial were to take place, Takashi would most likely have gone to prison. 

Paying no attention to nonsense, Kitz issued a combat order: "After the garrison troops begin operations, once a combat squad finds itself in a situation it cannot handle, launch a red flare and the nearest squad will go to its support. 

Kitz paused and looked at Takashi, "I know your strength. I expect you to do your best today. If your group has no casualties, I'll buy you dinner." 

Takashi, who felt a little surprised, looked at Kitz and said, "Don't worry sir, I'm not in the habit of holding back with enemies."    

Kitz nodded, said no more words and everyone surrendered their hearts before acting quickly. 

On the other hand, the Survey Corps is divided into three groups. It is not difficult for them to eliminate these titans. After all, fighting in the city is much easier than on a flat ground outside the walls. That's why with favorable terrain, some titans will be captured for investigation. 

Half an hour into the battle, Ian and the elite team had already begun operations. 

"Ah! Don't eat me! Help! Help!" Desperately shouted a soldier who was caught by a titan. 

The five soldiers in his squad were sweating profusely and did not know how to save him. 

"Whoosh!" 

A figure flew swiftly over the back of the titan's neck, and a spinning slash caused a burst of blood. 

"Burst!" 

The titan fell to the ground and began to steam. The soldier freed himself from the titan's palm and looked up to look at Takashi, who was standing over the titan's head with a blood-stained sword. 

"Thank you!" There were tears in the soldier's eyes. He was almost eaten at this point, and he was terrified. 

Takashi nodded and turned to leave. "Good job, pay more attention to your training." 

After the battle actually started, he found a problem: the number of titans wasn't a problem, there was something else, they were all spread too thin and Takashi had spent a lot of energy from just running back and forth.  

Ian warned him that he was not fit to act alone, attacking in a group was more efficient.

On the other hand, Rico frowned, looking at an abnormal titan jumping up and down, he had already killed two soldiers. 

Rico gritted her teeth and said, "Where is Takashi, why hasn't he arrived yet?" 

A member of Rico's squad said, "I don't know when he will arrive, what should we do?" 

Rico was a little reluctant and pointed out, "We attacked him twice and missed. He's become a bit alert and now we can only contain him." 

"Shh!" 

The abnormal titan suddenly covered one of its eyes that was wounded, and before its other eye could see what was happening, a glowing shadow struck again, cutting its other eye. 

The abnormal titan, who unconsciously covered his eyes with his hands, froze, and in an instant blood gushed out the back of his neck and he fell to the ground with a thud.   

Takashi, replacing the blades of his swords, stood on the roof of a building and looked at Rico, "Are you all right?"   

Rico breathed a sigh of relief and her face was not very good, "Even though we got separated, it was too late, we just arrived and the squad that called for help lost two people." 

Takashi felt bad, there aren't many titans in their area, there shouldn't be more than twenty titans, but they are all spread out widely and it takes a long time to move around. 

Before he had time to say anything, a red ribbon-like bullet soared in the sky not far away. He didn't think much of it and hurried to support. 

On a street, Captain Kitz stared at the abnormal titan dancing in front of him with an ugly face. 

Even if two squads of twelve would face this titan, even though the cuts on his body were numerous, no one managed to hit him in the back of the head, now there were already three soldiers lying in a pool of blood.

Kitz looked at a frightened soldier and said angrily, "Why didn't you send up a flare earlier?" 

The squad leader had cold sweat on his forehead, "Before we fought him, he didn't behave abnormally." 

The soldier couldn't tell how hard it was to fight that titan at first. At that time, the titan was nothing special and walked as if it was just another titan without intelligence. 

As soon as they made a move, the titan started dancing nonstop and two of the soldiers were momentarily knocked out of the air.    

It must be said that although some of the abnormal titans are mentally retarded, they are really "talented", skilled in all kinds of steps that the others did not know, dancers, jumpers among other more variations.

"Damn! Retreat one after another!" Kitz was very nervous, but there was nothing he could do. He could only cover the retreat of the wounded squad while support arrived. 

In a tall building not far away was a group of people. 

"Mike, do they need us to help them?" Nanaba from Mike's Survey Corps squadron frowned at the sight of the dancing titan. 

"Those garrison corps guys can't deal with that titan! Let's kill it!" Mike shouted, he couldn't contain himself and was about to go chop that titan to pieces.

Although this was an abnormal titan and is under the responsibility of the garrison corps, it was not far from Mike's assigned area. 

Just as Mike was about to launch into the attack, he saw a black-haired man in the uniform of a training corps soldier move toward that direction. 

Mike returned his blades towards his team and said with a bit of curiosity, "Looks like there's no need to help them, a powerful boy has arrived."    

On the other hand, Takashi looked at the bodies of the soldiers on the ground, his expression turned cold and his eyes sharpened.  

His team's anchor flew out and pinned him to the building next to the dancing titan. The gas sprayed frantically and the retractable rope quickly retracted.

"Whoosh!" 

Under the action of a pulling force Takashi moved toward the abnormal titan like a sharp arrow. 

In the air, his left and right hands are inverted holding his knives. 

The blade of the right hand and the blade of the left hand in parallel position were poised, and the Chakra in his body began to mobilize, flowing through his limbs and blades. 

The dancing titan noticed Takashi's approach and slapped him quickly. 

With the enormous pulling force and the extra force of the gas pulled from his retractable rope, Takashi's body spun frantically, his movements making his blades spin like a spinning top.

Spinning along that abnormal titan's arm was contracted to his shoulder, producing a long blood show! 

"Slaap!" 

The moment it stopped spinning, Takashi jumped up and slashed the titan's eyes with a knife angrily. 

The abnormal titan shrieked in pain. 

Takashi used the titan's body as a fixed target and swiftly cut the tendons and joints of the titan's body.

Then two long slashes reached the tendons behind the knees of its legs.  

"Burst!" 

The abnormal titan suddenly knelt on the ground, arms drooping and eyes bleeding.  

Takashi flew with the help of his three-dimensional maneuvering equipment, stood on the wall of a building, fixed his waist to the titan's neck and once it moved, slashed swiftly. 

"Slass!" 

Blood splattered his hands, and the titan's neck was almost cut in half by Takashi, and its body fell forward. 

Kitz and the two squads at his side were relieved, there was surprise in their eyes. As the titan gave them the sword a moment ago, they did not see how Takashi had blinded the titan's eyes. 

However, they saw Takashi running towards the titan, cutting off its limbs, moving too fast and fiercely. 

"Brilliant..." Kitz froze, the titan's blood had reached his face. 

This time Takashi was fierce because he was angry, otherwise there would be no need to make so many turns and waste gas.

On the roof of a building not far away, a soldier from Mike's squadron took a deep breath: "Did you see what I saw? It seems to have spun on the titan's arm! Except for Captain Levi, are there any other people who can do that?" 

Nanaba's expression showed surprise and she said, "I think it's a bit different. I've only seen the captain use it a few times before, so I'm not sure."

Indeed, it is a little different. Because the Chakra burst out as an impulse, Takashi doesn't need much effort now to perform those moves. 

However, this is not only because of the Chakra in his body, but also because of the excellent control over the three-dimensional maneuvering equipment.   

The tall and sturdy Mike looked at the soldiers of his squad as if they wanted to ask him something.   

Captain Miki raised his eyebrows and said a little jokingly, "Tell you what, don't think you can learn this trick yourselves, it's not something ordinary people can learn. Don't ask me how I know it." 

Mike remembered when he saw Captain Levi's manipulation and wanted to imitate it.Result? Not to say, he was pretty sure it's not something ordinary people can learn at all. 

The soldier next to Mike said, "Captain Mike, I didn't want to ask you that, I also know I can't learn those moves at all!" 

"I practiced too, I almost cut my head off!" 

The soldier paused and said, "I just wanted to say that I ate meat last night and my stomach hurts, shouldn't I have offended you with my words, Captain?" 

Mike was silent, if they weren't in a dangerous place, he would have beaten that soldier for being such a fool.
