A few minutes after the battle with Slipknot, my new name picked me up on the flying board.

In the end, there were two bombings of the building. In that short prep period, the new name chose the least damaging building, plus tightening people out of the neighborhood. Besides, New York has plenty of fire extinguishing equipment and shelters to prepare for the collapse of the building in the first place.

But the injured were still not zero. The wounded were there.

The executive officer was Ning, but he was not blamed within Crimson. That's why I did it in two cases, and also that this made me the first person to survive being targeted by Slipknot, and that I was able to bring back some information on Slipknot. Rather, it can be said that Ning's assessment within the organization was raised as initially desired.

The Ning people in the hospital were very unhappy, considering the damage, but they were still running their thoughts depressed about the next measure.

Battle footage of Sonic Youth is being streamed on a nearby monitor in the hospital room.

"... I heard rumors that the speed of this guy is unusual... how good is this?"

The sonic use on the screen is running so fast that the camera can't keep up. Avoiding a series of machine guns.

That, too, can be seen by making it super slow, but instead of dodging the bullets fired heavily as a herd, they're moving into small pieces and dodging every shot. It's evidence that we're capturing the bullet's orbit. It was just superhuman reflex velocity.

Crimson then proudly advances to a large combat android, bursting with flashing straights. Android is blown away by the shock waves produced by ultra-fast, and Sonic Youth has already disappeared off-screen.

"Mmm. Nate, you're in the hospital, so you have to rest, yo. Yes, apples."

By the bed, she peeled off the apple as Annis sneered, and offered it.

"No, it's almost healed already. Nothing like watching footage..."

Injuries sustained in the transformed state heal quickly. That's probably why Annis is sneering around. When I was brought into the hospital room, I had a little trouble with the wow crying.

"Meh. Yes aan."

Annis seems in a good mood, and the glowing smile is very unattractive, but I was just told to do it.

"... thanks. But I can eat it myself."

"Oh... also."

Snag a fork and eat a munchkin 'apple. Annis seemed dissatisfied.

It was then. The door to the hospital room was knocked and an unexpected person came in.

"Hey, Nate. How's the wound?

"Ah! Dad!

It was Mr. Big. Double suits and moustaches are still set today. Annis' face seemed happy as well.

"Oh, hello. Much better now. Thank you."

Ning people thought it was sincerely good that they didn't get the 'ahem' earlier. Hopefully when I was invited to dinner before, I'm going to be disfigured to be Annis' companion if I stay like this. It's not like I know what kind of reactions I would do if I saw a sight like that right now.

"Mr. Big, what are you doing to me today?

"No what. It's just a compliment."

Mr. Big is the head of Crimson. Naturally there are many enemies. Information such as home is therefore kept secret, and not in such a way as to make it easy to walk away. It was uncomfortable that he came all the way to visit. Maybe you really like yourself.

"Thank you for your time"

If it was meant to be, it would be natural to think, 'Isn't there something behind it', but somehow I didn't feel that way. Or maybe this is Mr. Big's virtue.

"That's okay. You're a family. The Japanese eat melons when they're sick, don't they? I hope this fits your mouth."

Mr. Big was bringing a fruit basket. I already have tons of fruit, but I was happy. Ning politely thanked him.

"And I'm surprised. Fight Slipknot and survive."

"Hmm. ♪ Isn't that amazing?"

"... no"

I'm good at anise, but that's not like being appreciated. Ning people have come into contact with Slipknot to find out.

First and foremost, if Slipknot's ultimate target was himself, he'd probably be stuck like that and dead. Besides, if we had sacrificed Manhattan at the end of the day and attacked him, but it had also hunted him down to the point of defeating him, we would have eventually attacked him with sacrifices and other 'knowing' things. He will survive at all costs until he achieves his ultimate goal. That's why I pulled it on that spot.

Though I survived, obviously this one is more damaging. It was at the beginning that I was worn out.

I told Slipknot, 'It's my win' for a temporary spiritual advantage on that occasion, but if you think calmly, it's not a very victory. I just survived. I guess it's a good place to draw.

Nevertheless, as a crimson, it seems miraculous that he survived while being targeted by slipknots.

"No, I missed it."

Dare I keep it a secret that I let you get away with it. Because there is a lot of inconvenience.

But that's not the problem. At least for Ning people.

Slipknot was strong. We could have left, we could have survived, but we might not be able to defeat him.

Ning's self-conscious greatest weapon is the spiritual power of malice. Maybe on the ultimate occasion, that doesn't work for him.

"... To be honest, the fight with the Rocks over here is pretty tough"

In addition to such a slipknot, there's also this guy. Ning saw the image of the monitor.

"You're humble.... Sonic Youth footage?

Mr. Big sat down in a bedside chair and did his gaze on the monitor.

"Yes. This guy is strong, isn't he? If it's just speed, I think it's more than Dylan."

"Right. If that's what you mean, I'm sure.... What do you say? Do you have a chance?

Mr. Big has begun to hesitate in a gentle tone.

"... what do you think? If you don't try, you won't know."

The Ning answered honestly. I've thought about it a lot, but it's pretty hard to defeat Sonic Youth.

The first thing I thought about was darkness during non-combat. But this seemed impossible.

Sniping from a distance, for example, with his oversense, would make the sound of a bullet cutting the wind, or visually supplement and avoid it lightly.

I can't even get close to him and assassinate him from close range in my routine. Sonic Youth's private residence is perfectly secure, and you can't get near it.

Protection is also perfectly close when performing activities outside of combat, such as interviews and CM shooting. I can't kill them all together with explosives, etc. I get sensed by the smell, etc.

And once you wear a protector and a sonic roller and start running, no one can catch him.

"Right. Well, it doesn't seem too imposing. The first thing you need to do is heal your injury, Nate. Well, I'm done, Melon."

"Ah, Mr. Big. I have one question for you."

Ning stopped Mr. Big from trying to walk away. I was going to ask you this.

"Do you have any idea who Slipknot is?

At that time, Slipknot tried to get information by showing a picture of Crimson executives, including Mr. Big. And Slipknot is a hunter specializing in crimsons. Naturally, there had to be some relationship.

"No, you don't know. I know what you're trying to say. He seems to be searching for my information. Maybe he's bringing some resentment. But there are countless people who have a grudge against me. I've done a lot of things."

I couldn't feel a lie in Mr. Big's words.

This man has said it before. I've been scattering terrible things, so I can't complain if someone talks to me one day. I guess that's true.

"Really, excuse me. Thank you for today. Thank you, Mellon."

Ning had Anis come home with him, and he ate a melon while thanking Big for his favor. And one thought. I'm just like Mr. Big. How many people would resent me? Will someone come someday? If that's someone like Slipknot, would I survive?

During the absence of the Ning people, it was their new name who acted on behalf of the work. I'm going to handle a huge number of projects like stubbornness in the office.

"Uh, I'm tired. Darry......"

A new name to take a breath and stretch your back. And I thought about it.

You've never seen a senior get hit that far. Besides, some guys are called Sonic Youth. It looks like it at first sight.

"But, Ma, can you handle it?"

He managed to survive the battle against Slipknot. Sonic Youth seems strong, but if you're just a strong opponent, you'll have a fight. The new name is basically an optimist. So I decided not to worry too much about some disadvantage.

Beetle, Ramone was Class B, and the Nings beat this critically. Maloon Red beat C, normally for this. Maloon 5, Slipknot is above A level, none of this has defeated him, he's retreated, he just survived.

And that means that the strength of the Ning people is about a grade A given in Rocks.

Both Slipknot and Sonic Youth are Class A. We can fight each other. We'll figure it out eventually.

"Uh, it's okay. Maybe."

That was the time. Communications came into the office. With a code that means "Important." The new name started the call with a sigh.

"Manhattan's chief deputy, his new name. What's wrong, sir?

What I was told was unexpected.

"... Huh? Are you serious? Seriously!? Oh, oh, even on TV already?... Ugh, uh, I got it for now. If you find out more, please report it again."

The new name hurried to turn on the TV. If the report is true, it's a big deal.

Drama did it on TV, but it changes channels. I checked the news.

This is the scene footage.

That news was just doing it. Terop is out, too.

- Slipknot, fight with Sonic Youth -

"The bank robbery by a monster that appears to have been committed by Rooster, which occurred after noon today, was resolved three minutes after it occurred. This is for Sonic Youth, who rushed to the scene as soon as possible, and Slipknot, who first showed up during the day, and for the first time aimed outside of Crimson, fighting other Rocks for the first time."

The screen shows Sonic Youth swirling and attacking around the monster at high speeds, and Slipknot covering Sonic Youth, aiming precisely at the monster's steeple with a large rifle from slightly further away.

Be agile, accurate, continuous and efficient. The attack by the two Class A Rocks lightly defeated the monster.

I know my new name as information. Rooster is an asshole criminal group not a big organization, but the strength of one of the few of those monsters is comparable to that of Metallica.

I knocked it down in just a few minutes. Quiet strength.

To see the footage, it doesn't look like the two of us showed up from the start and fought together. Slipknots appear after Sonic Youth and suddenly look as if they have begun to provide cover.

"What do you mean...?

The new name snaps. Typically, the Rocks often move alone. That's for reasons such as not wanting each other to know their identity. Sonic youth, whose identities are known throughout the United States, were occasionally covered by other Rocks, except slipknots. It was only working alone. That's why?

I don't know what Slipknot really means, but the strength of the two top loxes in one is overwhelming.

That would be so. All Class C Maloon 5 are Class A. But on the news, there are two A's. Its strength is just overwhelming.

Evil Silhouette is not so strong a modified person so far. I'm only showing strength because I'm Ning. Simple specs shouldn't be so different from the monsters on the news. The likelihood of being killed instantaneously is great.

"... this is really bad"

The new name hurried to contact Ning.

"Senior! Are you watching the news?

"Oh... I don't know what kind of change of heart it is, but it's not good for us"

"It sucks... If they put each and every one of us together."

"Calm down. This could be just a whim. Or maybe he happened to be nearby."

Ning people's words would be the one called Hopeful Observation. There can't be any point in what Slipknot does.

The new name came to mind. Finally, he doesn't get confused? Did you think about working with the other Rocks because you couldn't defeat the seniors? So in favor of future activities?

It seemed like a possible story.

"Slipknot is suspected of collapsing the building. Maybe you want to get rid of that. Or maybe it has a different purpose. He looks blameworthy, but it's all for a purpose. I have something to aim for. Either way, it's not like Crimson was damaged this time, and I don't know how he's going to move in the future.... now we just have to see how it goes"

Ning said so in a hurried voice. Indeed, the status quo has no choice but to do so.

"... Roger that."

That's the end of the call.

Then a few days passed.

In conclusion, Ning's hopeful observations were off. Since that day, Slipknot has emerged from nowhere and continues to mean fighting with the sonic youth that was ahead of him.

Citizens' reactions to this action were mating.

Some slapped the lonely no-power hero.

No, originally he's a man who doesn't choose the means. Some thought there must be some reason.

Didn't you get to know Sonic Youth personally? Some speculated.

I don't care, but some supported the Rocks working together as a good thing, because you're strong.

From the way in, the two Rocks even appeared together at the scene. Rumors arose that Slipknot, who was good at gathering information, was spreading information about the crime to Sonic Youth.

It was a positive or negative slipknot, but as a matter of fact the incidence of crime in New York dropped and the resolution rate rose. And some Crimson humans were also defeated by them. There was no stopping them who fought together, and even executives were sometimes taken over.

Crimson in Manhattan was in danger.

Something even worse, something deadly happened.

The top Mr. Big disappeared.

The organization was upset to see if he was buried in Slipknot, but there was nothing the new name could do, and perhaps even the Ning people.

From the results, it can be said that Slipknot's act of collusion worked well for Crimson Hunter.

The new name feared the trend of slipknots that were surviving through style and surely coming hunting the neck of purpose.
