Chereads / The Strongest Mutant And Primordial Monster / Chapter 25 - CHAPTER 25 - No Love No Trust

Chapter 25 - CHAPTER 25 - No Love No Trust

"This..." Baron kabasa and his goons stared in surprise at boss Ajasa whom was enveloped in an oval shaped transparent shield and a bunch of bullets floating in front of him.

"Hahaha!" Boss Ajasa threw his head back in a fit of laughter. "You fools! Did you think it will be that easy to kill me?!"

"I see" Baron kabasa's eyes twinkled with understanding. "I guess this is the special merchandize that our dear courier has decided to grace us with"

Baron kabasa's gaze landed on Tobi who flinched and shrunk his head in fear.

"Unfortunately for you kabasa, you will never get your hands on this device" Boss Ajasa raised up his left arm, which showcased the glowing bracelet.

"What makes you think so?" Baron kabasa raised an eyebrow. "This device may be impressive enough to block our bullets, but I doubt that it will be able to stop my boys from beating you to a pulp"

"They can try!" Boss Ajasa pulled out a gun cartridge case filled with bullets and replaced the previous one. "But they will be picking up their dog lives from the afterlife!"

"Then we will have to see whose deterrence is stronger!" Baron kabasa's eyes gleamed dangerously.

"You won't live to see anything!" Boss Ajasa swiftly pointed his gun at kabasa while kabasa's goons lunged at him.

~Blam!~

Baron kabasa stood without moving as the bullet shot from boss Ajasa's gun flew just few inches past his face and buried itself on the wall behind. This was not due to the fact that boss Ajasa was a terrible shot, but because his aim was interrupted.

"Jimmy!" Boss Ajasa gasped in shock at his second in command whom he thought was shot down by kabasa's goons.

Jimmy was the one who knocked boss Ajasa's aim way off as he struck Ajasa's hands with a broken furniture. Boss Ajasa felt his arms explode in pain due to Jimmy's sudden attack. All at once, baron Kabasa's goons pounced on the disarmed Ajasa as they rained down punches on him. Boss Ajasa tried to fight back despite the pain in his arms, but he was easily overwhelmed.

"That's enough boys!" Baron kabasa sat down on a chair in a relaxed position. "Wouldn't want to kill him just yet now would we?"

Receiving his order with swift obedience, his goons dragged a beaten and battered Ajasa whom had a seriously swollen face while bleeding from his nose and mouth.

"You shouldn't have been so cocky Ajasa" baron Kabasa said with a contemptous smile. "The shielding device only protects you against heat generating projectiles"

"But I hate to see you like this" baron Kabasa said with false sorrow. "You know what? I don't want to hurt you anymore than I should and I know that this device on your wrist has been programmed to recognize your blood alone"

"S---so what?" Boss Ajasa said with labored breath, while he gave Kabasa a murderous glare.

"So open it" baron Kabasa simply said.

"Hahaha" boss Ajasa gave a bitter laughter. "And if I don't?

"Look here Ajasa, you may think you have a choice but you don't" baron Kabasa said with killing intent. "It's either you comply or you regret it"

"Go to hell you swine!" Boss Ajasa roared before he was punched in the face.

"Well then" baron Kabasa signaled at his goons with his finger. "Bring the courier over here"

Tobi's heart skipped a beat as Kabasa's goons walked over to him and pulled him forward. Standing before Kabasa, Tobi's mind raced on how he could survive this situation.

"Hey courier or should I say Tobi?" Kabasa had a playful smile on his face. " You've been holding out on us man. I mean why would you come to this animal with such a precious merchandize instead of coming to us?"

Kabasa was the baron of the dark Axe gang which was one of the underworld subordinate gangs which were subservient to the three underworld lords namely: the mafia, the python syndicate and the sons of hades.

While Tobi's mind raced, his ears caught boss Ajasa's voice which was a bit distorted and coarse.

"Why Jimmy?"

"What?" Kabasa bent his head a bit towards Ajasa who was in a kneeling position. "What did you say man?"

Raising up his head, boss Ajasa's gaze landed on Jimmy whom was standing close to Kabasa. "Why would you betray me?"

Boss Ajasa was no idiot. He always knew that there was a mole in his gang and was already setting up traps to catch this traitor. But he couldn't have known that it would be Jimmy, whom was like a son to him. Ajasa even planned to make Jimmy the next boss when he retires.

Seeing those eyes that demanded answers, Jimmy gave a low snicker.

"You ask me why?" Jimmy's eyes portrayed ridicule. "Because you are getting old and no longer fit for the job that's why and as you've always told me, you're either fit to stand or about to fall. And we all know what happens to those that fall in this world of ours. They don't get up"

"You fool!" Boss Ajasa cursed. "Do you know what will happen to you when the don discovers your betrayal?"

"Who told you that I am acting without the knowledge of the don?" Jimmy gave a mocking smile.

"What did you say?"

"Hahaha, my dear Ajasa. Its seems you have no idea what's going on do you?" Boss Kabasa shook his head in ridicule. "You've been put down old man. That's what we do to dogs that have lost their teeth"

"No...." boss Ajasa shook his head in disbelief. "The don would never do that to me!"

"Oh really?" Baron Kabasa raised an eyebrow.

"Besides, taking me out like this would only cause an uproar in the gang. The don would never betray me!"

"What? You think you're that special?" Boss Kabasa gave him a mocking glare. "Open your eyes old man. In this world of ours, everyone is expendable. If you want to keep your dog life, then you got to keep your teeth and claws strong and sharp for the master or else you will become food for other canines"

"Sorry old man". Jimmy had a cold look in his eyes. "But you always told me to put the gang first above all others and that's what am doing. I hope you'll understand"

Getting the full gist of the situation, Ajasa could only stoop his head low and dropped his shoulders. At this moment, he seemed to age a few more years. Seeing the pitiful state of his long time rival, baron Kabasa had a satisfied look on his face.

"Well then, now that we have exchanged pleasantries and unpleasantries, we should get this over with" snapping his fingers towards Tobi, he said "courier, we want you to unlock this device on his wrist"

Tobi seemed to be hesitating.

"We don't have a lot of time courier" Jimmy said in annoyance. "Or should we persuade you too?"

Catching the meaning of the word 'persuade' from Jimmy's statement, Tobi knew there was no point in stalling.

"On one condition" Tobi began.

"What condition?" Baron Kabasa inquired.

"That I leave here in one piece"

"Of course, you're still useful to us courier. No point in killing you, now is there?" Baron Kabasa said smilingly.

"We also have our conditions" Jimmy still maintained that cold look in his eyes. "From now on, your services are hereby limited to the black hand and dark Axe gangs, understand?"

Sighing, Tobi nodded "I understand"

He wasn't really surprised by what happened today. After all during his past years in the underworld society, he had experienced similar situations of betrayal and insubordination. There is no such thing as love and trust among the underworld gangs. While he was about to deactivate the device, there was a sudden noise of clinking sounds as a bunch of little metal balls came rolling into the room.

"What the....?" Everyone stared at the metal balls in confusion, before Tobi widened his eyes and cried out.

"Watch out!"

~Pow!!~

~Pow!!~

The little metal balls suddenly exploded by releasing powerful shockwaves, which sent everyone and everything in the room flying.

~Bam!~

~Crash!~

The shockwaves were quite strong that it caused men and objects to crash into one another. After the energy within the little balls had been expended, the commotion in the room died down leaving the room to be a bit more messy in comparison to the earlier scene of gunfire.

Seconds later, someone walked into the room with heavy strides as he knocked out anyone who was still conscious. Tobi could barely stay conscious as he felt someone grab his arm and pulled him up saying "you're coming with me"

Meanwhile.....

Agent Tolu was becoming restless after listening to the various sounds of commotion coming from the building. At this point, he was restraining himself greatly from running into the building to assist captain James. Few seconds to the moment of totally losing his calm, he heard captain James' voice from his comm device.

**Hey Tolu come help me up here would you?**

*********************

Tisane was like a phantom of death as he moved effortlessly through the group of fleeing monsters and reaped their lives one by one. It wasn't long before every monster that came to assault him earlier was killed. After cutting down the last monster, Tisane sighed in satisfaction while he calmly played with his sword which was soaked in blood.

~Who are you?~ The lightning monster inquired as it stood up from its fallen position while it kept its eyes on Tisane. The monster was no fool, at this moment it knew that Tisane was a more terrifying adversary than the ninja girl. Though it was unwilling to admit it, but if it were to go into battle with this male human, it would die. In this case, the monster decided to retreat and call for reinforcements.

Tisane could already sense the minute actions of the monster and knew it was getting ready to run away. Of course, how could Tisane allow that?

"Hey monster. I have a proposition for you" Tisane said as he waved his hands and immediately lots and lots of red glowing stones appeared and floated before him.

Seeing those stones, the monster's eyes became saucers as it almost lunged forward to grab them from the hands of the human male. Only by remembering whom it was that held the stones, did the monster hesitate. A smile appeared on Tisane's face because he knew his plan was working. The crystals he held in his hands were extremely important to monsters who love feeding on it to grow stronger.

"I will give you all this crystals if you are able to defeat and kill her" Tisane pointed at the ninja girl whom had a dumbfounded look on her face.

The monster's gaze moved to the female human and then back to the male human as it frowned.

~Are you asking me to kill your fellow human?~ The monster was trying to figure what Tisane was thinking to make such a request.

"I don't know her" Tisane replied nonchalantly "and besides knowing how strong you are, I don't wish to fight you anymore"

~Huh? So you'll just give me all those crystals if I kill her?~ The monster still had a hard time believing that Tisane would back down without a fight.

"You don't believe me? Well then..." Tisane waved his hands as all the crystals were wrapped up in a transparent material and dropped in between the monster and the ninja girl. "As you can see, I won't be able to reach the crystal before either of you do. So, in other words, whoever wins, takes the crystals"

Tisane moved back some miles in order to show his sincerity.

Seeing this action, the monster was assured that the human male wouldn't try anything dodgy. Even if he did, it was confident of snatching the crystals and running to safety before Tisane arrived. As for the female human, it very much knew that she was weak and could easily be defeated.

While the monster was preparing itself to snatch the crystals lying few miles away from him, it saw and heard the ninja girl pointing fingers at him and cursing loudly.

"Hey you ugly son of a bitch!" The ninja girl began. "Don't you dare think about getting your filthy hands on those crystals! They are mine and mine alone!"

~Hmph! Puny human, it seems you don't know your place! Well no matter, it would be my pleasure to devour you for good this time!~

The monster had a disgusting smile on its face as its long elongated claws crackled with lightning, while blue winding arcs of electricity circled its body.

Few minutes earlier....

The ninja girl was becoming confused at the statement of Tisane.

'Is he actually making a deal with the monster to kill me?' She thought incredulously.

While her thoughts were about to spin out of control, she heard a familiar ethereal voice in her head.

~Little Tina~

'What?!' She jumped in shock as she stared at Tisane who was still talking to the monster.

~Its me Tina. I will explain later but right now, I need you to go along with my plan~

'C---can it be?' The ninja girl's body shivered greatly. 'M---master?!'

Keeping her blue eyes fixated on Tisane, the ninja girl felt the space around her freeze as Tisane winked at her and gave her a wonderful smile. It was a smile and gesture that she knew all too well.

'Master, he's back. My master is back' she almost grew crazy with joy as her heart beat accelerated. Feeling two stream of tears flowing her eyes, she smiled as she wiped her eyes.

~Tina you okay?~ The voice this time was a bit concerned.

'Yes master, am alright' she replied with a refreshing smile.

~Alright, pertaining to the plan, I need you to go all out. No holding back this time, got it?~

'Yes master' she nodded as her expression became serious this time and not just being serious, her eyes seemed to emit a strange and powerful new light as she felt a whole new flow of qualitative energy into her body.

Her aura also went through a qualitative transformation as it glowed with sparkles. Taking in a deep breath of air, the ninja girl felt strength that she had not felt in a very long time as she pointed her finger at the monster and roared.

"Hey you ugly son of a bitch!" Don't you dare think about getting your filthy hands on those crystals! They are mine and mine alone!"
