Chapter 128: Gid Lucione Deviluke 1

(Ryoto's pov)

Shit shit shit! He is too early! Hopefully, it's only a spontaneous visit, but my spider-sense says otherwise.

I turned around to see Gid in his child form. He looked harmless, but I knew otherwise.

Ryoto: "Ah, if it isn't Gid Lucione Deviluke. How should I call you? Father? Your highness? Papa?"

Gid: "Stop wasting time! You know why I'm here, don't you?"

Karen: "Ryoto, it was nice knowing you."

'Same, but I don't plan on dying.'

It's the worst possible situation. That's why I did a few hand signals behind my back to Lala so he wouldn't notice. I did it in a way that it looked natural. Thankfully Lala saw my signs but was hesitant to leave me alone with her dad.

Who knew that the hand signals that we learned to kill Koro-sensei would be useful in that kind of way. Once more, he helped me more than he realized.

I did a few signals again, saying that I would be alright so she'll believe me, but I didn't like my chances. On the other hand, I plan on being there when my child is growing, so dying isn't an option.

It's almost funny that I, who didn't care if he would die the next day, would hold onto life using everything he could.

Gid: "Lala, leave us alone."

Gid unknowingly helped me by giving Lala an excuse to go.

She left us alone but not before looking at us for the last time. She then used her anti-gravity wings to complete her part of the plan.

Now I was standing before Gid. I was obviously taller than him but the pressure he emitted dwarfed mine.

To battle this pressure, I released Haoshoku Haki, but it did nothing to him even though he felt that.

Gid: "Hoo~ It seems that you aren't a pushover. That's good. But do you really think that's enough to beat me?"

He increased the pressure, but I didn't plan on kneeling before him.

The problem with fighting Gid is not only is he stronger, not only he is faster, not only he is more experienced, but he has aoe attacks as well. That's why I can't use my eyes too much to scare or confuse him. Otherwise, he'll destroy the entire city, maybe even the planet. I'll need to use them only in crucial moments.

I don't want to win. I just want to survive long enough, and my maximum limit is 20 minutes, and that's saying very optimistic.

Ryoto: "Thanks for the evaluation."

Internally I was, however, a mess. His tail would be enough to break my legs with that sweep. If I covered one of them with Haki, I would have a chance to save it, but it would probably still hurt like hell.

Gid: "How about your defenses then?"

He pointed his tail at me. If I dodge, then he'll destroy houses behind me.

God dammit!

Analyzing the energy output on his tail in milliseconds, I decided that I'll be able to stop it.

I focused energy in my hand, creating a big blue hand.

Ryoto: "God hand!"

A beam made contact with my hand. Let's just say that it was a new experience feeling a laser on the projection of your hand.

It was challenging, but I managed to stop the laser even though I was pushed back a bit. Afterward, the hand disappeared.

Everything goes according to calculations.

If I had glasses, I would push them while they would reflect the light making my eyes not visible.

Gid: "So you could protect not only yourself but the houses behind you as well. But what if..."

I didn't let him finish as I noticed the energy gathering once more but more, which is bad.

I quickly shot a web at his face, and he used his tail that was gathering energy to cut it. Using this short moment, I started gathering lightning. Usually, it would take too long to gather enough energy to fire it out but knowing Gid, he would allow me to do it, and I was right.

With a confident smile, he said.

Gid: "Ryoto Yuuki, let's see what more you've got!"
