The first to engage Mars was Takatsuki Sen, who was being extra cautious with the tragedy of Kirishima Arata fresh in mind.
Takatsuki Sen's Ghoul Speaker form was different from before; the prominent Heko on her back and the two Heko great swords on her arms had disappeared, replaced by a Heko resembling an arm shield on her forearm, she gave up all offensive Heko in favor of focusing on defense.
The appearance of a Heko depends on the ghoul's imagination, but few ghouls can achieve this. As an SSS level Ghoul, Takatsuki Sen can, of course, do it.
A heavy arm shield with a diameter of one meter stood in front of her, and Takatsuki Sen seemed noticeably more at ease.
Mars snorted coldly, launching a straight punch at Takatsuki Sen's arm shield, a punch full of tremendous force, accompanied by a strong whooshing sound.
Boom.
Everyone felt a tremor beneath their feet.
Mars's fist, encased in steel, slammed into Takatsuki Sen's arm shield like a heavy hammer.
