Reincarnated in One Piece - Chapter 34
Colorful light continued to extend through the steam as Eren’s severed hands rapidly regenerated.
Sitting atop the Female Titan, he roared with his mouth wide open while the Female Titan, with her hands pressing against Eren’s chin, looked calm. Underneath her short blonde hair, her blue eyes remained serene.
Despite being suppressed, she didn’t panic but stayed remarkably composed.
“I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”
From the nape of the Attack Titan, Eren’s snarling face bellowed, his eyes glowing green as his hands quickly regenerated.
At that moment, the Female Titan clamped Eren’s head with her legs, flipping him off and freeing herself. She then planted a single-handed kick into Eren’s abdomen, sending him flying into a giant tree, where he lay amidst clouds of steam, unable to rise for a moment.
The Female Titan assumed a combat stance, remaining vigilant.
Roars echoed through the sky as Eren got back up, also taking a fighting stance. Both sides watched each other warily until Eren launched the first attack.
Unlike the calm Female Titan, Eren was overly aggressive.
He threw a straight punch with a sound like cracking wind, but the Female Titan dodged, her correct hand hardening into a crystalline structure, and delivered a right hook to Eren’s face.
Eren’s jaw dislocated, his body spinning 360 degrees before crashing to the ground, sending stones and dirt flying.
The surrounding environment was thrown into chaos by the two Titans’ battle.
“I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”
Eren kept shouting, determined to eradicate all Titans.
Steam rose from his body as the bloody wound on his face healed rapidly. Eren got up again, charging at the Female Titan with a wild knee strike.
The Female Titan, more agile, swiftly evaded, causing Eren’s attack to miss and shatter a tree as wide as five men could embrace, demonstrating his immense strength.
However, Eren’s knee was overstrained, leaving him unable to rise momentarily as it needed time to heal.
The Female Titan stood by, hesitating before decisively stepping forward and delivering a spinning kick with a hardened right foot. Eren’s head separated from his body, shooting like a cannonball into a tree and disintegrating into steaming pieces.
The Female Titan approached Eren’s body, tearing open the nape to reveal his proper form.
Tang An, hidden in the treetops, remained still, waiting.
He knew Mikasa and Levi would soon appear to rescue Eren, and Levi would severely injure the Female Titan. That would be his cue to act.
Sure enough, the sound of ODM gear approached, and Mikasa was the first to appear.
Seeing the Female Titan about to eat Eren, her face twisted with rage.
“Stop.”
“Give Eren back… Give Eren back to me.”
Seeing the Female Titan trying to leave, Mikasa’s eyes filled with bloodlust. She only had one thought: kill the Female Titan and save Eren.
Eren couldn’t be dead.
“Mikasa, where’s Eren?”
Levi appeared, sensing something was wrong as he saw Mikasa pursuing the Female Titan.
“She has Eren in her mouth. Eren must still be alive.”
Mikasa fixated on the Female Titan.
“Stay calm. She’s moving slower than before.”
Levi followed steadily, drawing his blades.
The world seemed to hold its breath as Levi tensed up; his breathing halted, maintaining a distance from the Female Titan.
Suddenly, the Female Titan turned and punched.
“Now.”
Levi’s eyes gleamed with cold light. He spun through the air, slicing along the Female Titan’s arm like a flash of lightning. Before she could react, he descended from above, aiming for her nape.
It was a feint. The Female Titan blocked her nape with her hands,
but Levi redirected his attack, blinding her with a double-bladed strike and severing her Achilles tendons, leaving her both blind and immobile.
Levi hung in the air, covered in the Female Titan’s blood, his series of movements as fluid as a beam of light.
“I can kill her.”
Watching from the side, Mikasa saw the Female Titan leaning against a giant tree, her nape exposed.
“Stop.”
Seeing Mikasa about to strike, Levi’s expression changed.
She wasn’t a mindless Titan but an intelligent one.
“Clang!”
Mikasa’s blade shattered against the hardened nape.
A shadow loomed over her as the Female Titan’s right hand struck with a slicing sound.
“Crack!”
Levi appeared just in time, pushing Mikasa aside, fracturing his right foot. He then sliced off the Female Titan’s cheek and pulled out the unconscious Eren.
“Eren.”
Mikasa’s mind was solely on Eren.
“Let’s leave. He’s still alive.”
The previous attack had drained Levi’s strength, and his right foot was injured. With the Armored and Colossal Titans potentially appearing, retreating was their only option.
Protecting Eren was the priority.
Mikasa nodded, following obediently.
She had regained her composure.
If Eren hadn’t been rescued, she wouldn’t have left.
In the treetop, Tang An watched Levi and Mikasa leave. Looking down at the Female Titan, who was surrounded by steam and regenerating, he pulled out a vial of serum.
“A bottle of Ymir’s Bloodline Serum.”
“Description: Drinking this grants you half of Ymir’s bloodline (Eldian), with no side effects…”
Without hesitation, Tang An opened the vial and drank it.
It tasted foul, like real blood.
After drinking it, there were no adverse reactions or side effects. Instead, it felt eerily calm.
Descending from the air, Tang An stood before the Female Titan.
She had regained her sight and was surprised by Tang An’s sudden appearance.
“Hello, Annie.”
Tang An waved, seeing her expression change.
Without warning, the Female Titan raised her right hand to swat at Tang An. Stones and dirt flew, but the Female Titan saw Tang An, now floating midair, reappear in front of her eyes as if by teleportation, causing her more tremendous shock.
He wasn’t using ODM gear, so how did he suddenly appear and hover?
A blinding light flashed, and Tang An’s hands wielded diamond-encrusted daggers, shining in the sunlight.
A single slash cleaved the Female Titan from mouth to nape, faster than Levi’s strike, leaving Annie no time to react or harden.
“Slash…”
With the sound of cutting flesh, Annie appeared in the nape of the Female Titan. Amid excruciating pain, her arms were severed, and she was sliced in half.
Tang An grabbed Annie by the hair, landing on the ground and pulling out a syringe filled with spinal fluid.
Tang An knew Annie could harden herself, just like in the original story, so he had specifically severed her arms and cut her in half for good measure.
Now, with only her upper half remaining, Annie’s body was enveloped in steam, trying to regenerate but unable to harden again due to the severe injuries.
Annie was terrified.
Facing this man with a syringe, whose skills surpassed Levi’s, was the stuff of nightmares.
