Chapter 46: Earthlings are born evil, we Guts aliens will personally...
"An alien? Caught just like that?"
"Captain Lin Yu, you?!"
Konomi was somewhat dazed and overloaded, unable to process the situation.
Today had brought far too many shocks; her brain felt like it was about to short-circuit.
"This alien looks so ugly. That head is bigger than its body."
Shinjo adapted quite quickly, after all, he was the one who had personally killed Alien Zarab under Lin Yu's command!
Besides, he was naturally carefree.
Without missing a beat, he complained and walked up, using his foot to tentatively prod the giant head of Alien Guts.
"I have a feeling this guy is very dangerous. Captain Lin Yu, what's his background? Is he dead?"
Daigo also stepped forward and asked.
"This is the Doppelgänger Alien—Alien Guts. You can tell from the name: it excels in replication techniques. Originally a bird species from planet Guts, it evolved into this form due to highly developed intelligence. Not an easy opponent, but this one isn't dead yet."
"He should be an accomplice of Alien Zarab and Alien Imperial, and the real mastermind who released Maga-Orochi!"
Lin Yu introduced casually.
Alien Guts was definitely an accomplice, but whether he was the one who released Maga-Orochi, Lin Yu couldn't be entirely certain—it was just a high probability.
Anyway, let's pin the blame on him first.
"What? He's an accomplice of those two aliens? And he released Maga-Orochi? Absolutely damned."
"Scumbags like this should be killed on the spot."
"Don't they know that once Maga-Orochi comes out, not only will it devour everything on Earth, but they themselves will also end up on the menu?"
Marina, Aihara Ryu, and George Banju all changed expressions instantly.
"Huh? Not dead yet?!"
Having poked and prodded for a long time, Shinjo—who was just about to squat down for a closer look—was startled out of his wits. With zero grace, he leaped backward like a giant toad, bounding three meters away.
Before he even landed steadily, he drew his gun and aimed at Alien Guts.
It amused Lin Yu to no end.
"Relax, even though he's not dead, he's not unconscious either."
Lin Yu said with a smile.
"Oh, as long as he's not unconscious, wait, as long as he is unconscious, wait no, as long as he's not unconscious..."
Shinjo sighed in relief, only to notice that several of his teammates had suddenly drawn their guns, their expressions turning tense.
"Huh? Why are you guys so tense? Didn't Captain Lin Yu say this bird-head is still unconscious?"
Shinjo didn't understand.
"Idiot, you need to clean your ears out. He's been awake for a while!"
Aihara Ryu cursed in a low voice.
"Aihara Ryu, you bastard, calling me an idiot again! Clearly, you're the one who looks more like an idio—wait? Awake? Who's awake?"
Only then did Shinjo realize what Lin Yu meant: he wasn't unconscious, he hadn't been unconscious at all!
He whipped his head around, only to see Alien Guts already had its eyes open, its gaze gloomy and cold.
Damn it!
This bird opened its eyes!
At that moment, Alien Guts scanned his surroundings and, confirming that the terrifying Maga-Orochi was nowhere in sight, he instantly grew bold again.
Though he didn't know how he ended up here, it didn't matter.
"Naturally foolish humans, you actually dare to discuss the brilliant Lord Guts? I will personally—"
Alien Guts stood up with a chilling gaze, intending to show these Earthlings who was boss with an overwhelmingly powerful posture.
The next second, a solid black iron rod twenty centimeters in diameter smashed down onto Alien Guts' head!
"Thwack!"
Both the club and the skull were solid.
Alien Guts immediately felt a wave of dizziness, a huge bump swelling on his head as if several little Alien Guts were circling around it.
Staggering, he had barely stood up before crashing back to the ground.
"Hit him! There might still be accomplices. Just leave him breathing enough to interrogate!"
At Lin Yu's command, the heavy iron rod struck again.
If this were the four-man squad from the Mebius theatrical film, besides Alien Zarab, Alien Imperial, and Alien Guts, there should also be an Alien Nackle.
They had to fish him out.
"Speak! Where are your accomplices?!"
Lin Yu delivered another blow, knocking over Alien Guts who was just trying to say something.
The others snapped to their senses and, without a moment's hesitation, rushed forward to help.
"Take that for being arrogant! Take that for releasing Maga-Orochi! Take that for scaring me!"
Shinjo unleashed an offensive ten times more ferocious than when he fought Aihara Ryu. Knee strikes, elbow blows, power punches—none were spared as he unloaded them all onto Alien Guts.
He beat Alien Guts so hard the alien's bird eyes were practically popping out.
"I..."
Alien Guts tried to say something.
Lin Yu struck him right across the mouth with the iron rod, achieving physical silence.
George Banju also unleashed the intimidation of a world-champion soccer player, executing a violent shot!
Well, the soccer ball happened to be Alien Guts' head.
"Ugh!"
Alien Guts spat out a mouthful of unknown liquid.
His voice was slurred.
"Gugaa..."
"If it weren't for you guys, Captain Serizawa and the others wouldn't have sacrificed themselves, you damned aliens!!"
Aihara Ryu's sandbag-sized fists fell like raindrops. Alien Guts' words were interrupted, and the sound of cracking bones could faintly be heard from his body.
Wait, who the hell is Captain Serizawa? What does that have to do with him?!
"Gugagoo..."
"Yakkity yak, what are you babbling about? Taste this move!"
Shinjo grabbed Alien Guts' leg and locked him into a textbook naked chokehold.
Marina said nothing, simply using her high-strength alloy-crafted sidearm like a hammer to continually pound Alien Guts.
Daigo and Konomi acted like fresh recruits, able to do nothing but watch.
"Stop, stop, stop!"
After a short while, at Lin Yu's call to halt.
Alien Guts twitched slightly, sprawled on the ground, beaten into a thoroughly flattened state.
He looked somewhat dead.
"Ha... that feels amazing. This is my first time beating up an alien, the tactile feedback is totally different!"
Shinjo panted heavily, declaring it a thrilling experience!
"If I go back and tell the guys about today, those fellows—heh, they're going to die of envy!"
"This is way more exciting than any World Cup final."
Like Banju, he stood with his hands on his hips, breathing heavily and smiling brightly.
Even Aihara Ryu looked to be in a much better mood.
"Wait, did we forget something?"
Marina had also enjoyed the beating immensely, but she had slightly more brains than these grown men. She scratched her chin and asked.
"Forgot what? Didn't forget anything."
Shinjo's gaze remained as brilliantly dense as ever.
"We were supposed to interrogate Alien Guts to see if he had accomplices, and if so, where they are..."
It was Konomi who raised her hand, speaking timidly like a schoolgirl.
"This guy has a hard mouth. He took a beating this long and this hard without cracking; what a tough guy!"
Lin Yu put away the twenty-centimeter-thick iron rod and looked at Alien Guts with admiration.
"Wuwuwu!"
Hearing this, Alien Guts thrashed violently.
"What's wrong with him?"
The others were puzzled.
"Uh, it seemed like he was trying to speak right from the start, but Captain Lin Yu, your club hit him right in the mouth."
Daigo also chimed in timidly.
Now he and Konomi were in the same boat.
Among the team, he was undoubtedly the quietest.
"What? Daigo, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Lin Yu widened his eyes and asked reproachfully.
Daigo: "......."
You guys were having so much fun beating him up, he never got the chance to chime in!
"My apologies, Guts, I wronged you. I'll give you a quick release in a moment. Come on, tell me where your accomplices are."
Lin Yu turned his back to the rest, supporting Alien Guts with an apologetic tone.
"Yew guyth, thee... thee er of teh Eath... Eathling, ah... ah whil not forgiv..."
Losing air through his gaps, Alien Guts now held a grudge greater than Alien Yapool's. Trembling, he prepared to grow to giant size!
He was going to make these Earthlings pay!
He was going on a killing spree, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!!
Yet as a flash of blue light crossed Lin Yu's eyes, Alien Guts was jolted.
He looked toward Lin Yu.
In Lin Yu's eyes—whether it was an illusion or not—he saw an Eleking and a Zetton.
This Zetton had evolved into an EX form, a rare depiction from cosmic legends he had only heard of and never witnessed, which effortlessly tore apart the nightmare that had terrified him out of his wits—Maga-Orochi!
Then, looking at the subtle smile at the corner of Lin Yu's mouth, Alien Guts, whose IQ was not low, understood.
This damn thing was no illusion!
The next moment, a smile uglier than crying appeared on Alien Guts' face.
"The... The Nackle Alien... he... was eaten... eaten by Maga-Orochi!"
