Chainsaw Man: Mangekyo Sharingan

Chapter 89: Chapter 89: The Adorable Gun Devil

Kotone Asaba teleported above the lead armored vehicle and dropped inside while phasing.

The mafia members inside the armored vehicle behind it saw someone suddenly appear in midair ahead of them, leaving them instantly stunned. That person even went straight into the vehicle in front of them, and they began wondering if their eyes were playing tricks on them.

At that moment, Kotone Asaba was in the back seat of the armored vehicle. Before the two men in the driver’s seat and front passenger seat could react in time, his hands had already landed on their shoulders.

He immediately used Angel Devil’s ability to absorb their lifespans.

Since the ability to absorb lifespans could not work through clothing, he deliberately pressed his little fingers lightly against their necks. There was no clothing blocking him there.

Both of them thought it was one of their companions messing around, so they did not pay much attention to the feeling on their shoulders.

But they had forgotten that no one was sitting in the back seat. The other people in the vehicle were farther back in the armored compartment.

Not until the man in the driver’s seat casually glanced at the rearview mirror inside the vehicle did he suddenly see a strange mask.

He did not react right away at first. Just as his gaze was about to return to the road ahead, his eyes suddenly snapped back to the rearview mirror.

His eyes widened instantly.

"Who are you?!"

Only then did the man in the front passenger seat suddenly turn around. At some point, a mysterious figure wearing a strange white mask, whose true face could not be seen, had entered the vehicle.

They were all wearing black head coverings. The person before them was definitely not one of their own.

In that short span of time, Kotone Asaba had already absorbed several years of lifespan from each of them.

Angel Devil’s ability was not so terrifying that it could drain all of a normal person’s lifespan in an instant, but absorbing several months with even a slight touch was already absurd enough.

In the original story, when Angel Devil was controlled by Makima, he had not drained everyone in the tribe of their lifespans in an instant. Rather, his memories cut out while he was being controlled. When he came back to his senses, he discovered that he had already drained everyone’s lifespans one after another. From that point on, he no longer remembered anything about those people.

Not until Makima finally exposed her identity as the Control Devil in front of Aki Hayakawa did he suddenly recall the memories he had lost under the influence of control.

The man in the driver’s seat hurriedly slammed on the brakes, while the man in the front passenger seat quickly pulled the alarm.

However, the moment the vehicle braked, Kotone Asaba directly sucked both men into the Kamui dimension.

Although the mafia members in the rear compartment did not know what had happened, they immediately entered a state of alert, holding well-made firearms and preparing to deal with whatever situation was about to occur.

The other armored vehicles behind them were the same. At the warning of the alarm, they stopped one after another. The mafia members got out of their vehicles and watched their surroundings vigilantly. Their equipment was so advanced that they almost looked like regular soldiers.

At that moment, Kotone Asaba floated out through the roof of the armored vehicle and stood on top of it, looking down at the crowd slightly.

"Who are you?"

The muzzles of the mafia members’ guns all pointed at Kotone Asaba in unison.

Kotone Asaba did not answer at all. He suddenly teleported in front of one of them and sucked him into the Kamui dimension.

That man had no time to react at all. Before he could even pull the trigger, he was thrown into an unknown alternate space.

Another person beside him was frightened by this bizarre scene and directly held down the trigger, firing at Kotone Asaba.

However, Kotone Asaba could activate and deactivate his phasing ability at will. All the bullets passed through his body, and that man instead accidentally shot his own teammates.

Two mafia members were hit in the abdomen and leg respectively, but their willpower was still different from that of ordinary people. Even while lying on the ground and enduring the pain, they raised their guns and fired at Kotone Asaba.

But doing that would only injure their teammates again...

They had not yet realized that they could not hit Kotone Asaba at all.

"Cease fire! He should be a Devil Hunter! We can’t hit him!"

Just as everything was about to descend into chaos, someone shouted loudly.

This person seemed to be a minor leader. After his warning, the others suddenly came to their senses.

"You must be a Devil Hunter sent by the military. You really do have some skill. Let’s see whether my Poison Gas Devil can deal with you!"

The man looked at Kotone Asaba with a calm and serious expression, preparing to use the Poison Gas Devil’s ability.

This group of people had successfully intercepted the military transport carrying the Gun Devil’s heart, so they certainly had not relied only on firearms. The power of Devil Hunters was also necessary.

The Poison Gas Devil. Just hearing the name made it sound far from ordinary.

But how could Kotone Asaba give the other party a chance to use Devil power? The moment the man started saying so much useless nonsense, his fate had already been decided.

As soon as the man finished speaking, Kotone Asaba teleported in front of him and sucked him into the Kamui dimension.

Even if the other party had mentally prepared himself for it, Kamui’s suction was not something an ordinary person could evade. No amount of mental preparation was of any use.

In truth, at that instant, if the people around him had kept firing at him continuously, they would have caused him a bit of trouble, because whenever he launched any attack, his phasing state had to temporarily shut off.

But after the people around him were warned, they were afraid of hitting their teammates and did not dare open fire. That only allowed him to act even more recklessly.

After personally watching even their strongest captain vanish, the remaining mafia members grew even more panicked.

"Forget about him! We need to get out of here! We have to get that thing back intact!"

They felt that there was nothing they could do against this mysterious masked figure, so they decisively chose to flee.

The "thing" they mentioned should have been the Gun Devil’s heart.

How could Kotone Asaba let these people escape? He sucked them into the Kamui dimension one after another.

After a while, only one armored vehicle had slipped through the net. That armored vehicle had already started, and the gas pedal was floored as it charged away. The mafia members inside thought they had luckily escaped, and the Gun Devil’s heart was also inside that vehicle.

But they never expected that Kotone Asaba could catch up to them in an instant, and even throw the entire vehicle into the Kamui dimension directly.

Kotone Asaba suddenly appeared in front of the armored vehicle, floating in midair, with one hand pressed against the front of the vehicle. His right-eye Kamui activated at once.

He and the vehicle became as still as if time had stopped, all movement frozen in place. Just like that, the entire vehicle was sucked into the Kamui dimension.

After that, Kotone Asaba cleaned up all the remaining things at the scene, including the armored vehicles, and placed them all inside the Kamui dimension. He left almost no obvious traces behind, then immediately left the area himself.

It was as if nothing had happened there at all.

Kotone Asaba entered a deserted forest, then released a random mafia member from the Kamui dimension first.

The first thing he saw was that the man’s face was full of helplessness and terror, so he immediately controlled him with genjutsu.

For an ordinary person like him, controlling him was naturally easy.

However, Kotone Asaba was not planning to have this person help him do anything. It simply made it more convenient for him to absorb the man’s lifespan.

To be specific, he planned to absorb the lifespans of all the mafia members in the Kamui dimension and store them up as one portion of his power.

That was why he had gone to the trouble of throwing all those mafia members into the Kamui dimension instead of directly killing them.

Mafia members like these, who killed without blinking, had who knew how much blood on their hands. Absorbing their lifespans and letting them die without pain was already the height of mercy.

After the other party was controlled by genjutsu, he could not struggle at all against Kotone Asaba absorbing his lifespan. He also did not know that his lifespan was being absorbed, because the process of having one’s lifespan absorbed did not involve the slightest pain or even the slightest sensation.

He would not know how he had died even up until death. He might not even realize that he had already died.

Quite some time later, more than fifty years of lifespan were obtained just like that.

At this moment, the man’s appearance had not changed either. He simply died peacefully.

He looked to be in his twenties, which meant he originally could have lived normally until his eighties.

Immediately after that, Kotone Asaba first threw out the armored vehicle containing the Gun Devil’s heart.

Originally, there had been several mafia members inside this armored vehicle, but when he threw it out now, they were all gone. Clearly, they had already gotten out inside the Kamui dimension.

However, the Gun Devil’s heart was still inside the vehicle. Kotone Asaba immediately entered the armored compartment and searched around, soon finding the Gun Devil’s heart.

Inside a cage made of a very special material was a small gray animal. Its appearance looked rather cute, with a pair of adorable big eyes.

There was a handgun growing out of its head, its tail was shaped like a gunstock, and there was something like a trigger on its abdomen. If its front and hind legs were treated as the front and rear grips of a gun, then this little creature was practically a modified handgun with extra grips.

This was definitely the Gun Devil’s heart. Just like Pochita, the Chainsaw Devil’s heart, it was miniature, and they were extremely similar.

Speaking of which, Pochita was also in the Kamui dimension, but Kotone Asaba had placed Pochita somewhere else, where the mafia members would not encounter him. Kotone Asaba could also monitor the inside of the Kamui dimension at all times and take action.

Even if Pochita did encounter those mafia members, with Pochita’s strength, dealing with them would be no problem at all. It was just that Kotone Asaba still had a use for them. Otherwise, how else would he store up lifespans?

[Affinity Codex activated: Gun Devil]

[Reward obtained: Constitution +1]

[Current Affinity: 0%]

The Gun Devil’s main body that Germany had stored only accounted for one percent, yet it could still activate the Affinity Codex.

This also meant that Kotone Asaba only needed to raise Affinity with this little creature in front of him. He did not need to search for the Gun Devil’s hearts in other countries.

Looking at the human in front of it, the little creature inside the cage had no particular reaction.

It had probably been well cared for by the German military for a long time. An existence with a nature similar to a nuclear weapon had to be regularly maintained even if it were an actual nuclear weapon, let alone a living little creature like this. Of course they would have to treat it like some precious little ancestor.

On top of that, after the Gun Devil was killed by Pochita, it had completely lost its memories. After losing its memories, the first humans it came into contact with gave it very good care, so it was not especially wary of humans.

Although Devils instinctively wanted to harm humans, the various countries definitely had methods for controlling it. Compared to before, the amnesiac Gun Devil no longer had such great malice toward humans, and because of that, the various countries could use it perfectly.

Incidentally, aside from this little creature in front of him, any country that had divided up the Gun Devil’s main body, such as the Soviet Union and the United States, should each have an identical little creature of their own.

"Can you understand what I’m saying?"

Kotone Asaba asked this little creature very directly.

This little creature probably did not even know it had been hijacked. It showed no emotions like panic, unease, or nervousness at all, so there was no need for him to say something meaningless like "I’m here to rescue you," because this little creature had no idea what had happened to it in the first place.

Strictly speaking, it was not really a "rescue" either. As far as the Gun Devil’s heart itself was concerned, whether it was the military or the mafia, neither side felt absolutely righteous. They were all just acting for their own interests.

The Gun Devil’s heart did not respond to him. There was no response of any kind, no sound and no movement. It only looked at him quietly with those adorable big eyes.

Perhaps it was because he was a stranger it had never seen before.

"Forget it. I’ll let you out first."

Kotone Asaba easily destroyed the cage with Kamui.

No matter what special material this cage was made from, it was useless in front of Kamui, which was equivalent to true damage.

Although this little creature looked adorable, Kotone Asaba did not dare be too careless. Who knew whether this little creature would suddenly shoot him?

However, there was also no need to be too cautious. His Mangekyo Sharingan could predict this little creature’s movements in advance and slow them down in his perception. As soon as it showed any intention of harming him, he could react in time.

Kotone Asaba also did not plan to control this little creature with genjutsu.

First, he needed to raise Affinity, and controlling it with genjutsu would not raise Affinity. His genjutsu could only make it unable to defy him, not forcefully raise its emotions. In plain terms, he could only obtain its body, not its heart.

Second, this little creature was the Gun Devil’s heart. Even if the portion Germany held was only one percent of the Gun Devil’s main body, meaning this little creature only had one percent of the complete Gun Devil’s power, he still did not want to casually try controlling it with genjutsu.

If he wanted to control a Devil or Fiend with genjutsu, the stronger the other party’s Devil power was, the harder it would be for his genjutsu to take effect, and the greater the consumption would be.

Even one percent of the complete Gun Devil’s Devil power was not to be underestimated. If it drained him to the point of overexertion, the genjutsu on those Soviet military higher-ups would automatically be released. If that happened, he would be in serious trouble.

Controlling this little creature with genjutsu was meaningless to begin with, so there was no need to take that risk.

"Do you have a name? Or should I just call you Gun Devil?"

Kotone Asaba did not casually touch the little creature. Instead, he asked tentatively.

However, the little creature still ignored him. Even after the cage was opened, it only slowly walked out.

Kotone Asaba pondered for a moment, then took a bag of snacks from the Kamui dimension.

"Want some? Give it a try."

Kotone Asaba opened the snack bag. What he did next was just like feeding a small animal.

This little creature actually did finally react a little. It tasted a small bite of the snack Kotone Asaba held out.
