I survived by drawing cards after being transported to One-Punch Man.

"It's pretty bad, but it's still within my acceptable range."

Although Lin Yu had put in a lot of effort, the battle was still one-sided. Relying on the super-strong regenerative power of the Imperial Arms Beast King Transformation, he was able to keep Leone at bay for a short time, but it was a life-or-death struggle.

Zheng——

After a crisp impact, a meter-thick old tree snapped in two, the break as smooth as a mirror.

Leone's pupils constricted; she knew perfectly well that if that sword were to fall on her neck, she would not survive.

As the old tree crashed down, the surrounding withered leaves were swept up and flew through the air.

Two and a half minutes later.

Leone's body was covered with crisscrossing sword wounds; she had lost count of how many swords she had taken.

Each wound was deep enough to expose the bone, and even a piece of her furry animal ear had been cut off.

"Huffing and puffing."

Leone gasped for breath, her body already stained red with blood, a pool of blood quickly forming at her feet.

"Has she reached her limit?" Lin Yu stared at Leone, whose figure swayed precariously in the dim light.

Leone's consciousness began to blur, and she felt her life force rapidly draining away.

"I'm not reconciled to this, to die like this!" she cried out in her heart, but her body was no longer under her control. Her vision went black, and her body finally gave way, collapsing limply.

Even with her extraordinary recovery abilities, she was powerless in the face of such severe injuries.

However, she did not fall directly to the ground, but instead hovered in mid-air like a puppet being pulled by invisible strings.

"They've finally arrived. The reinforcements were too slow." Lin Yu frowned, his tone clearly showing his dissatisfaction.

Nourishes—

A rapid contraction of the threads was heard, and Leone's body was quickly pulled away into the distance.

"It really is you, Lubbock." Lin Yu stood still, his gaze piercing through the forest, locking onto a certain direction.

He didn't chase after the fallen Leone, but looked in another direction because he was going to deal with the three corpses.

Lubbock's Imperial Arm is Cross Tail, which is shaped like a spool with threads made from the fur of a legendary super-dangerous creature (dragon) that inhabits the clouds in the East Blue.

These threads, made from body hair, are stronger than all known metals, and users can manipulate them with dexterity. They are soft, sharp, and strong.

However, these threads are quite interesting. When I didn't activate my telekinetic scanning, I couldn't even detect them by relying solely on my senses.

These Imperial Arms abilities are really interesting; they elevate the user's strength by several levels.

"But is it really okay for me to do this to you?" Lin Yu suddenly stopped in his tracks. A few centimeters in front of him, a faint, cold light flashed by, almost invisible to the naked eye.

Lin Yu slowly extended his finger and gently touched the almost invisible thread.

"Tick!"

A soft but clear sound broke the surrounding silence as a drop of blood fell to the ground.

Lin Yu's fingertips were cut by the silk thread, which became faintly visible against the backdrop of blood.

Lin Yu withdrew his finger and gently sucked on the wound on his fingertip: "It actually broke through your defenses, hmm... it deserves a compliment."

If Lin Yu were to pursue directly without any psychic protection, the sharp edge of this thread would be enough to sever his neck. This is the strongest of the Cross Tail, known as the "Boundary Severing Thread," whose toughness far surpasses that of other threads.

They even left me with such a deadly trap during their retreat, but that's normal; Lubbock has a very high combat IQ, far exceeding that of the others in the Night Raid.

"This performance was perfect; it's time for the next one." But the enemy is still waiting for him.

Beside a stream outside the forest, a handsome young man with green hair and wearing a gray trench coat opened his eyes.

"To be able to detect my boundary line, what amazing perception," Lubbock muttered to himself as he began to retrieve his threads.

After bringing back the badly injured Leonera, Lubbock's face showed an angry expression.

"This bastard!"

Seeing that Leone's upper body was almost completely naked, Lubbock quickly took off his trench coat. Although he usually seemed a bit lecherous, he would never take advantage of Leone in this situation.

"This injury, and the bleeding, what should we do?" Lubbock was a little anxious because he didn't know any medicine.

"I'm...it's okay, I'm still alive." Leone woke up, thankful that she was still alive thanks to the regenerative power of her Imperial Arms, Lion King.

"Big Sister Leone, you..." Leone, her face covered in blood, smiled slightly as she faced the anxious Lubbock.

“I was lucky to only lose an arm under that perverted man’s sword.” Leone raised the severed arm, now only a fragment remained.

“I haven’t forgotten this, I’ve already retrieved it.” Lubbock picked up the severed arm beside him, which he had retrieved using silk thread.

Using the Cross Tail to control the threads and suture the severed arm, combined with Leone's regenerative abilities, the two work together seamlessly, allowing even severed arms and legs to be healed.

"As expected of my good partner." Leone's smile was a little forced. She recalled the previous battle. She was powerless against that sharp sword, but she could feel that the man was holding back. Although the attacks were deadly, she was able to avoid vital parts with every sword.

After stitching up Leone's severed arm, Lubbock stood up.

“Big sister, you should rest for a bit. That guy hurt you like this, I have to go settle the score with him.” Lubbock tried to sound relaxed and comfort Leone, but he was burning with rage inside.

However, before he could take more than a few steps, he felt his trouser leg being grabbed tightly.

"Big Sister..."

"Don't go, you'll die. I don't care how badly I'm injured, I'm begging you, please don't go, please don't go." Leone's voice trembled slightly, she was afraid that Lubbock would die at that man's hands.

The man toyed with her like a cat playing with a mouse. Although she didn't know why he didn't kill her directly, the difference in strength between Lubbock and him was too great; she would die.

Lubbock lowered his head: "But..."

“Unless we launch a full-scale night raid, we can’t win without suffering casualties.” Leone gripped Lubbock’s trouser leg tightly, trying to make Lubbock realize the reality of the situation.

“I understand.” Although Lubbock was filled with resentment, he knew he could not leave after Leone’s earnest pleas.

He sighed and sat back down next to Leone.
