Chapter 195 All Might's Wrath, Conan's Ritual (Fourth Update)
Gin knew that Ai Haibara was stalling for time, but he didn't care. He was well aware of the power he now possessed.
The Tokyo police? They were utterly laughable in his eyes. If he wanted, he could command Tindars Hounds to wipe out the entire Tokyo police force.
“I worshipped God for your sake too,” Gin said in a low voice, his eyes filled with fanaticism. “God used your information as a bargaining chip! And I offered my faith in return… Isn’t this a very clear exchange of equal value?”
"Is it really necessary to mention these?" Gin pointed at the Tindaros Hounds around him one by one, and the Tindaros Hounds that were pointed at barked excitedly. "These little cuties are apostles sent to me by God! The kind that won't die."
"...You're really getting crazier and crazier." Ai Haibara said expressionlessly.
She automatically replaced "God" with "organization," or rather, "someone within the organization." Then, she understood the situation.
It's likely the organization knew about her and sent Gin to handle the situation. Perhaps they also used her to test the organization's new biological weapon?
"I'll go with you." Ai Haibara stood up, her voice calm. "Don't hurt others... You don't want that, do you? If a massacre breaks out in this school, it will shake the entire country. Even you won't be able to leave this country then!"
"Are you joking?" Gin tilted his head and stared at Ai Haibara, puzzled as to why she would say such a thing. His voice was hoarse as he said, "Do you think these children would be completely unaffected after seeing God's apostles? Humans have no right to behold God's glory! Not even the glory of God's pets..."
"And... at first I was torn about what to do about your betrayal of the organization. But now I have a way... I can use the method given to me by God to make you one with me." As he said this, Gin became more and more excited.
Ai Haibara froze. She suddenly realized something, turned around and looked around, and found that all the children around her were lying on the ground, their bodies twitching from time to time. Some of the children even had fine scales on their exposed skin... as if they were transforming into a non-human state.
"How could this be?" Ai Haibara couldn't believe it, and she instinctively took a step back.
"My head hurts so much!" Kobayashi Sumiko slumped onto the podium, her body twitching intermittently.
As she watched, Ai Haibara suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head. She realized something and said in disbelief, "Are you crazy? You... your organization actually installed a bio-virus on these bio-weapons."
This is insane! Spreading a virus in Tokyo, the capital of Japan, goes beyond insane... it's downright suicidal.
Afterwards, the Japanese police will go completely mad, sparing no effort to completely eliminate the entire organization.
When a country goes mad, the resulting turmoil is beyond imagination.
Although the organization has been hostile to countries around the world in the past and still managed to exist, if Japan were to launch a full-scale attack, then no matter how strong the organization is, it would be destroyed...
Not to mention, releasing a biological virus in a country's capital crosses the line for countries around the world. At that point, it certainly won't just be Japan that takes action.
"He didn't use any biological virus!" Conan's voice suddenly rang out.
Ai Haibara paused for a moment, then reluctantly turned her head and saw Conan with his eyes open, staring seriously at Gin opposite him.
With a sharp hum and a whooshing sound, all the Tindaros Hounds around exploded.
A burly man with blond hair suddenly appeared next to Conan, staring intently at Gin with an extremely grim expression.
"In the end, I was too late... But no matter what, I cannot tolerate anyone laying a hand on a child!"
"...This guy." Gin's expression changed for the first time, no longer as relaxed as before, but showing great apprehension. The message in his mind told him that the person in front of him was not from this world.
Although he didn't know why people from other worlds were here, he believed the information appearing in his mind... after all, it was a special ability he had gained from worshipping the gods.
Needless to say, Gin believed that no normal person could unleash such power. He defeated all the Angels in an instant.
"But you can't stop me!" Gin roared, his body twisting as cold tentacles suddenly extended outwards, stabbing towards All Might.
"You're the one who deserves to die!" All Might roared.
All Might has discovered that even though he smashed all the Tindaros Hounds to pieces, the children around him are still being mutated and howling in agony.
He felt powerless, and a murderous intent rose within him towards Gin, who had caused all of this.
The terrifying fist slammed out, shattering the void, and Gin crashed into the outer playground like a cannonball.
Gin let out a sharp cry as his body shattered completely, yet he did not die. Instead, he began to regenerate, eventually transforming into an indescribable, gigantic monster with tentacles flying around. "Such unexpectedly powerful strength... In that case, let me fight you in this form."
"what happened?"
"The earth suddenly cracked open... and then this monster appeared?"
"It created a huge crater... How did this monster appear? Did it emerge from underground? Or is it an alien species that fell from outer space? Do alien species really exist?"
The commotion was so great that many people in the school were alarmed. They saw Gin completely transformed into a bizarre figure on the playground, and their reactions ranged from fear and panic to intense excitement.
All Might charged forward, chanting the words of the High Priestess, his fists pounding with all his might. The indescribable body of Gin was torn apart, then turned into wisps of black smoke, gradually offered to Su Han.
On the other side, Conan approached Ai Haibara with a serious expression.
"Kudo...it seems you've been hiding a lot from me." Ai Haibara stared calmly at Conan, forcibly suppressing the pain in her head. She looked down at her palms and noticed fine scales on them. "But there's no point in discussing this...after all, I'm about to die."
"Perhaps... I should have died long ago! Otherwise, I wouldn't have dragged so many children down with me... I ultimately underestimated the organization's ruthlessness."
Ai Haibara was gasping for breath; she felt her body transforming into another kind of life...
She clearly sensed this, and inwardly smiled bitterly. Was she going to become one of those zombies in the movies?
"That's not how it is!" Conan shook his head. He knew that this time it wasn't the organization's fault at all, but rather the work of the evil god.
His gaze swept over everyone else present: Ms. Kobayashi, Ayumi Yoshida, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, Genta Kojima…
"I won't let you die." Conan appeared calm on the surface, but he was extremely panicked inside. He closed his eyes and uttered the words of a ritual in his mind.
"Speaker of the council, I beg you... Even if it's based on the principle of equivalence... Take it, whatever I have, I'll give it all to you... I just want you to save these children!"
