Transformation into the Marvel Universe

Chapter 248: The Old Man with a Stick



(⌒▽⌒)☞☜(⌒▽⌒)

===================

Realizing her shortcomings in her techniques, Daisy was too lazy to engage in a back-and-forth with them. She raised her shield and slapped it directly at the ninja wielding the short knives.

The ninja was agile, moving like a giant monkey. But he underestimated Daisy's strength, assuming she was just a weak woman based on experience, according to the information—a scientist who, even after undergoing special training, should only be slightly better at skills like driving and combat than an average person.

This misjudgment cost him his life.

The dual-wielding ninja somewhat looked down on Daisy's seemingly unskilled move. However, he didn't completely let his guard down. In mid-air, he curled up into a ball, using both knives to press down on the edge of her shield while twisting his waist and preparing for a counterattack.

His move was only halfway complete when he heard a loud "bang" next to his ear. It felt like he had been hit head-on by a speeding train, leaving him disoriented. Before he could react, he flew horizontally like a wisp of smoke, crashing into a tree over ten meters away.

It wasn't until then that his body reacted. Blood gushed out, his eyes turned bloodshot, and more blood sprayed from his mouth, the pressure overwhelming his mask. He looked like a burst of blood mist, with most of his bones broken. His limbs twitched violently a few times before he collapsed by the tree, breathless.

Daisy felt a wave of relief, her annoyance lessened. She chuckled, facing the other ninja wielding the chain hammer, who was turning to flee, she raised her hand and unleashed a shockwave.

Slightly different from before, this shockwave seemed to be wrapped in a layer of subtle flames. After colliding with the air, it enhanced the burning of the flames.

The shockwave, carrying raging flames, struck the ninja's chest. This one died even faster than the one knocked away by her shield. A burnt hole appeared in his chest, and he was split into two in mid-air.

The change in her ability made Daisy curse inwardly, but the sight of blood and gore strangely excited her.

"Bakuto, you're next!" After dealing with the two, she swung her sword back to kill the three handless hand ninjas who hadn't recovered yet. It didn't take much time for Daisy to end the lives of these five ninjas. With swift steps, she approached Bakuto.

As a cult leader in the Hand, Bakuto was familiar with the ninja's attack style. He just didn't use it often. To buy time, he pulled out a bunch of miscellaneous items from his pocket and threw them at Daisy.

Darts, needles, throwing knives, shurikens, and unknown pills flew toward Daisy.

A pale green mist enveloped the surrounding space of dozens of meters. Daisy didn't think her body had reached the point of being immune to all kinds of poisons. She could only go around the outskirts.

Seeing Daisy wary of the poison mist, Bakuto regained some confidence.

There had been too many intelligence errors. He didn't understand the initial silver thread, but he clearly saw the fire fist later. She was a fire-style ninja(mutant)!

He was ready to leverage his organizational advantage. Since all his elites had been wiped out, Bakuto didn't mind throwing in more cannon fodder to delay her.

In his view, every mutant had a limit. Having lived for centuries and killed many superpowered people, Bakuto believed he still had the upper hand.

Retrieving an emerald-green bamboo whistle from his pocket, he blew it with all his might. The sound of the whistle echoed through the forest, and within less than a minute, the rustling of footsteps could be heard.

Bakuto's heart soared as he saw a large number of his subordinates arriving. He was almost tempted to shout "help" for reinforcements.

Daisy felt annoyed. These Hand members always relied on their numbers. Since they came to die, she had no mercy in her heart. So be it!

However, she had not become retarded after being affected by the Phoenix. Using things like her earthquake ability in the mountains would be stupid. If there is an avalanche or something, everyone would have fun...

Lacking large-scale killing abilities, she was also wary of the changes in her shockwave ability. She could only rely on her sword to kill her enemies.

Raising her sword single-handedly, it was as if she was performing a sword dance. Over fifty ninjas emerged on the other side. Judging from their pace, speed, weapons, and clothing patterns, they were clearly not as elite as the previous dozen. However, these ninjas seemed to have a blank look in their eyes, whether naturally or influenced by Bakuto's whistle earlier was unclear.

The ninjas drew their weapons and surrounded Daisy.

While the ninjas prepared for a desperate battle to buy time, Bakuto's sole focus was on escaping. Daisy had no choice but to also call for reinforcements.

Daisy shouted into the dense forest on her left, "Old man, stop watching the show and show yourself. What about your men? You didn't come alone, did you?"

A thin, old man wearing a tattered shirt, jeans, and sunglasses stepped out of the woods. He pulled out a samurai sword from his cane and tilted his head as if trying to discern something. "I'm not watching the show, because I can't see."

Daisy didn't care about the old man being sarcastic, because he was her only ally.

"Your swordsmanship is too poor. I'll kill Bakuto." The old man strolled into the battlefield leisurely, sniffing the pale green mist spread by Bakuto on the battlefield, and walked into it casually.

Show-off! Daisy had some criticisms about the old man's pretentiousness, but she could only face the over fifty ninjas in front of her.

There was no need for defense against a group of weak chickens. Daisy put away her shield, grabbed her lasso with her left hand, and her long sword with her right, charging towards the miscellaneous soldiers like an arrow leaving the string.

The soldiers didn't know how dangerous she was. They threw a large number of shuriken and throwing knives at her.

With the assistance of the mental power provided by the endless Phoenix Force, her magnetic control had improved by a notch.

Normally, moving a fork or a spoon was effortless for her, but now facing a large number of hidden weapons flying at her with tricky angles and high speed, some using special throwing techniques, she felt there was no need to show off.

She flicked away the weapons approaching her with her wrist guard. Amidst the rain of projectiles, she closed in on her enemies.

"Come here!" She threw her lasso like a whip, tightening it around a ninja's neck. The opponent, unaffected by the pressure of fear, proved that these people lacked self-awareness. Daisy had to rely on her strength to pull him closer and then decapitate him.

Two samurai swords came at her face. Daisy used her wrist guard to deflect them and simultaneously thrust her long sword upward.

The long sword sliced through the neck of one ninja holding short knives on her side then slashed open the chest of another samurai sword ninja.

Blood and viscera gushed out, but Daisy had already swiftly moved on, searching for her next opponent.

Still locked in combat with the old man Stick, Bakuto shouted a command in Japanese, and suddenly, the ninjas scattered. Some ran from left to right, some charged from behind to the front, more moved diagonally, and two threw smoke bombs right under Daisy's nose before disappearing.
