Chapter 76 A Dead Zombie

Although Cody had given a warning, it was hard to understand what he was talking about. What exactly did he mean when calling another person superhuman? However, it didn't take her long to find out, as she could see a knife being slashed toward her.

'How did he get here so fast? Wasn't he on the other side of the room? He covered around ten metres in an instant!' Pink was alarmed.

She suddenly felt a jerk on her hip as someone kicked her, and the blade had hit nothing but the air. Luckily, there was a teenage boy who knew what was coming, having fought against Cobra before, so he kicked Pink to save her from an incoming attack.

"You are annoying." Cobra flipped the blade, so now it was in his hand backwards and was going to strike Cody.

While on the ground, Pink saw what was going to happen, so she quickly got up and went to kick Cobra on the back of the leg, causing one of his legs to give in and bend slightly. Seeing this as an opportunity, Cody threw out a fist, but Cobra easily blocked it with his forearm.

There wasn't much strength in Cody's attack since he still hadn't recovered, and at the same time, he was a teenager whose body had yet to fully develop. This disadvantage was what propelled Cody to use weapons.

He was skilful, fast and agile, but the first time around, when they fought, he never expected someone to have a super speed like him.

Still, Pink was already up and ready to attack again. Throwing her own hand out with her sharp nails, ready to dig them into Cobra's temple. Hearing the grunts, Cobra quickly sped up and ran straight back away to where the group was, making Pink's attack hit nothing but the air.

"You monster." Cobra snarled, "I can't even fight against you fairly. If you hit me even once, I'm done for."

This was true, and Pink knew it as well, which was why she was trying to use her zombie self to her advantage.

While this fight was ongoing, Fingers was fighting for his own life as well.

He was avoiding the deadly machetes. It was a large bladed weapon, and it was hard to defend against it. In the first place, out of everyone in the Reborn, Fingers wasn't a fighter. He had learnt a few things from Shark, but even Jelly, who had been left behind, was a better option for fighting compared to him.

Still, his Zombie self had a slight advantage over humans, like feeling no pain and the extra increase in strength. Another thing was, if he got wounded, it wouldn't really be fatal unless it was a blow to the head. Because of this, he was able to avoid all the strikes from the others and quickly ran to where Pink and Cody were.

Cobra could see now that the three that were on the same side were now standing together.

"I'll deal with the troublesome one. You guys get rid of the extras." Cobra ordered and set his eyes on Pink.

There were six people in the Cobra gang, and five of them had brandished their weapons as they walked toward Cody and Fingers. Their odds didn't look good at all.

"I think I have a plan." Fingers gulped while whispering to Cody, "The zombies, they're right behind us. Let's run into them."

"What!" Cody shouted.

"I mean all of us, you don't understand, the zombies won't attack Pink or me, but at the same time, the others will be reluctant to jump in. We can use them as a type of shield. They might go after you, but Pink and I can protect you."

It sounded like a crazy idea, but Cody didn't know what else to do.

And before he could even decide, he noticed that Fingers was already on the move, and Pink glanced back and forth between the two of them. In the end, she grabbed Cody's shirt, and they were now going with the flow.

Fingers pushed some of the Zombies out of the way as they got in deeper and deeper. The zombies started to turn as they got a certain smell, and soon, the three of them were standing in the middle of the hoard.

Pink started to kick some of the Zombies away while Fingers was pushing them. They didn't need to kill them but just keep them from getting Cody. Honestly, his heart was racing as he stood in the middle of this all. He could see some hands breaking through the two of them and reaching out, but they were quickly hit away by the other two.

The only good thing was that these zombies were already injured and beyond hurt, so it was easy for the two of them to push them back.

"Boss, what do we do now?" One of the men asked.

"It's simple. We get them and kill every single one of these zombies!" Cobra growled. He was the first one to use his blade and stick it right into the skull of one of the zombies.

The gang members came out strong and swung their crowbars and machetes at the heads of the zombies one by one.

"Make sure you kill them all, don't let them get behind us. Otherwise, you risk yourself getting turned!" Cobra warned.

The three of them at the other end gulped. They had never expected this gang to risk their lives for this. This wasn't part of Fingers' plan. He thought there was just too much risk for a human to dive into a horde of zombies even if they were weakened just to kill some people.

In his head, the rational thing a normal human would do was to run away, but everyone was different, and these people, especially Cobra, didn't view Zombies as such a scary thing. They had put all of these guys in the container for their own entertainment in the first place.

"Now what we do, this is only going to buy us about three minutes at this rate," Cody explained.

"Buy time." Fingers replied. "Maybe if we just buy enough time, the others will come to help us…and..and they should get tired from fighting the zombies. This is still the best plan, we just have to stick with it."

"Just be ready to fight, human," Pink said as she kicked one of the Zombies so hard in the stomach that she sent them toward their attackers. It hadn't died but soon turned to one of the nearby gang members, only to get stabbed right on the top of the head.

"Oh, what's this one?" Cobra said out loud.

'.',

Looking at Cobra, one could see he was standing in front of a zombie and was looking down at the ground. There was a single one that was coming toward him, trying her best as she pulled on the floor.

"If I remember correctly, isn't this your dear sister? Well, this is great. Now I get to kill her twice." Cobra laughed as he lifted the blade in his hand.

"I can't watch this!" Pink said as she went to leave the circle, but Fingers quickly grabbed onto her hand.

"Pink, you sister, she's not like us... she's already dead. Our priority is to survive." He pleaded.

Shaking Fingers off, Pink didn't care, but when she turned back around, it was too late. Cobra had stabbed his black dagger right into Jasmine's head. She was no longer moving, it was clear the zombie was dead, but even so, he lifted the blade out of her head and stabbed her again in the head.

"Haha, this might be more fun than when she was alive!" Cobra continued to laugh as he did the same action over and over, just digging his blade into the dead zombie's head.

"Stop it! Stop it!" Pink screamed, and not being to take it anymore, she ran through the Zombie horde, knocking over some of them in the process while heading straight for Cobra.

"I guess it's time for a change of plans!" Fingers muttered, knowing that he wouldn't be able to hold them all off on his own. He ran out as well, and Cody followed closely. They were out of the pit of zombies but now were back to where they had started and were here a lot sooner than Fingers had expected.

Seeing Pink continue to run toward Cobra, he grabbed his black blade and threw it straight toward her. In an instant, it had gone right through into her stomach, and blood poured out, but it didn't slow her down for a second.

"You really are a monster!" Cobra smiled as he stood up with the bloodied knife in his hand

The others were now standing between Cobra and Pink and were ready to give the final blow to Pink.

"Stop!" A voice shouted from the back.

The instant everyone inside heard this voice, they halted, and when turning around, they saw two men standing there. Both of them had similar scars over their body, like Fingers and Pink, and in their hands and on their back were several weapons.

"There are…more of you?" Cobra said as he looked at both Shark and Kun.
