Chapter 243: Ch 243 : Dottore, whose words dictate the law
"Arataki Itto" looked at everyone fiercely, ready to strike — but just then, Kazuha suddenly lowered his head and collapsed to the ground, motionless...
Immediately after, Su Yuan felt the consciousness of Raiden Ei enter his body.
"I'm sorry, Su Yuan. I shouldn't have entered your body without permission..."
Raiden Ei's voice echoed in Su Yuan's mind:
"But the situation is urgent now. I need to borrow your body in order to unleash even greater power."
"Go ahead, please take full control of my body!"
Su Yuan also understood that this was the only way to maximize their combat strength.
In fact, back at the Kamisato Estate, when Su Yuan was briefly alone with a temporarily recovered Arataki Itto, he had held back a bit — he didn't tell Itto that he could let Raiden Ei control his body to unleash incredible speed and strength...
And now, maybe this was the perfect chance to catch him off guard!
"Oh? Su Yuan, you've fused with Beelzebul again, huh…"
"Arataki Itto" watched the scene unfold without the slightest hint of surprise and spoke directly:
"Against this kind of move of yours, I just need to surround myself with Eerie power and form a protective barrier — it's enough to easily block your attacks…"
Su Yuan couldn't figure it out, couldn't understand — he had deliberately kept it secret from Arataki Itto, that he could let Beelzebul control his body.
So why did Itto act like he knew all along?
And just earlier, he had seized the perfect opportunity to use that transformed tongue to pierce and kill the greatest threat — "Kujou Sara"…
Everything was executed so precisely, as if someone had been guiding him from behind the scenes…
Could it be Dottore again?
Although, logically speaking, the blame couldn't all be placed on Dottore, the facts so far clearly showed — only Dottore had both the ability and the audacity to do something like this…
But even if Arataki Itto's current strange state was caused by Dottore, how was Dottore able to control Itto's eerie state so freely and precisely?
Could it be that the trigger behind Itto's current eerie state wasn't eating some kind of bean product, but something entirely new?
Granted, there had been intel from long ago suggesting that each person might have more than one condition that could cause them to undergo eerie state…
But for that theory to be proven true for the first time — and on Arataki Itto, of all people?
"Hey, hey, hey… Beelzebul? Su Yuan? Since you two already unleashed your fusion ultimate move, why aren't you following up?"
"Don't tell me… you're afraid of me?"
"Well then, I won't hold back — I'll make the first move!!!"
"Arataki Itto" burst into loud laughter, and in the next moment, the Eerie power around him erupted — the energy condensed into countless ghostly figures with horns growing from their heads…
"Ahahaha! A demon king's parade naturally comes with plenty of loyal followers!"
"Prepare yourselves — to face my wrath!!!"
As he shouted, "Arataki Itto" wielded his Oni King's Gold-Crushing Club, now wrapped in Eerie power, and charged toward the group alongside the horned phantoms formed from that same power!
"Everyone, be careful! Get out of the way, now!" Su Yuan shouted, while Raiden Ei took control of his body and used incredible speed to dodge the incoming assault…
"Paimon! Look out!!!"
Aether shouted as he leapt toward a stunned and frozen Paimon, overwhelmed by the terrifying scene…
Fortunately, he made it in time — both he and Paimon came out of it unharmed.
Kamisato Ayaka also successfully anticipated "Arataki Itto's" attack and managed to dodge it…
"Oh my, look at you all—so disheveled and pathetic. Not elegant at all…"
Rosalyne's voice suddenly rang out from the side, and both she and Kamisato Ayato appeared on the scene.
"Ayaka, come to your brother's side…"
Ayato smiled gently, reaching out his hand to Ayaka as he said,
"Let me protect you—just like when we were kids…"
Wait—seriously?
Su Yuan didn't even know what to say anymore.
Just one eerie transformed Arataki Itto was already more than their group could handle, and now Rosalyne and Ayato—both likely under Dottore's control—showed up at the perfect moment?
With all this, there was no way Su Yuan could believe that Arataki Itto's current state had nothing to do with Dottore…
"Su Yuan, I bet you're wondering right now—how exactly did I manage to control Arataki Itto and force him into an eerie state?"
As Dottore's voice echoed, his figure appeared on the scene as well…
"Dottore! So it was you behind all of this!" Su Yuan roared in anger.
"Thank you for the compliment, Su Yuan," Dottore said with a slight smile.
"The reason I did this was simply to weaken the forces around you—so I could take you away more easily…"
"What a shame—my segment that could willingly enter an eerie state was defeated by you in such an unexpected way…"
"But Su Yuan, I'm afraid I have to pour a little cold water on your hopes…"
"You never had the strength to do that. If he had truly wanted to resist, there's no way you could've unleashed that many slashes…"
"That segment accepted death willingly. Though on the surface he had reconciled with me and agreed to assist in my plans, it wasn't until the very last moment that he revealed his true thoughts…"
"He chose death—because he was tired of being under my control…"
So that's how it was… No wonder Su Yuan had felt something was off.
How could that Dottore have been killed by him so easily?
"It seems that truly reconciling with one's past selves is still incredibly difficult…"
Dottore sighed. "I never noticed these thoughts of his before…"
"So… the one standing in front of me now—are you the real Dottore?" Su Yuan asked.
"Su Yuan, what do you think?" Dottore replied with an indescribable smile.
"Who the heck are you people? Don't tell me you're here to steal from me, to steal our Arataki Gang's prey?"
"Arataki Itto" glared furiously at Dottore and the others, gripping his Oni King's Gold-Crushing Club as he charged forward.
But even as the eerie state and seemingly unstoppable "Arataki Itto" came at him, Dottore showed no sign of panic.
He remained calm and composed, smiling as he said:
"Arataki Itto, now that we've arrived and taken control of the situation—your mission is complete."
"Exit the eerie transformation, and then go die!"
The moment "Arataki Itto" reached Dottore, the eerie power surrounding him instantly vanished, and he reverted back from his eerie form…
Taking advantage of Itto's momentary daze as he returned to normal, Dottore seized the opportunity and drove his weapon straight through Itto's chest!
Su Yuan couldn't understand—why… why did Arataki Itto immediately exit the eerie state as soon as Dottore spoke those words?
