12 Rise up to Capture The Real Threat

The outcome was revealed with the assassin bullet pierced through Sparror opened palm and moved forwards from inside. He closed his eyes, endured the pain, and sealed his screaming lung with the flaming ropes coming from his damaged palm.

Another flaming rope extended itself to the inside and managed to constrict the bullet from going further. Furthermore, he lashed out the bullet away from inside his hand to the blue with a trail of blood following.

The flaming rope unleashed a tiny explosion wave that eradicated the existence of the assassin bullets. Nonetheless, the crowd screamed in shock and luckily N.T.P.D policemen rushed onto the crowd declaring a safety protocol.

"FOLLOW US NOW!" The policeman shouted on top of his lung and waved his persuasion arms.

Some of the people followed the policemen in frantic running and Prime Minister Kamiya was frozen by a shivering shock. Misaki's worriedness increased and sent a lot of sweat drops on her forehead.

"Guards, escort Papa to safety now!" Misaki shouted with a commanding voice.

The guards obeyed by nodding as he cautiously grabbed the Prime Minister's arm as he left the wooden stage together. Misaki locked to the Flaming Hero that slowly fell down to the ground and conservative expression emerged.

Sparror locking eyes managed to capture a sight of Hollow running away from him and shot down the drone with his sniper easily. Flaming twister wrapped around his whole body and vanished from physical existence, leaving Misaki in worried confusion as her hand tried to reach him.

The flaming twister reappeared, distant from Hollow unfazed sight. Without hesitation, he aimed the sniper without even looking at the locking scope once again that it felt like holding a normal pistol in his eyes.

As Sparror already gained the physical presence, The White Assassin pulled the trigger and unleashed the rocket fly yellow capsule bullet. The bullet smoothly penetrated The Flaming Hero skull at lightning-fast speed and vomited a gulp of blood as his body became immobilized, fell down like a corpse in frozen disbelief buried within his eyes

Hollow put down his sniper as he clenched his fist that omitted a mixture of white and blue energy. Furthermore, The Silver Assassin hopped into the building gracefully before it left a white clone alone on the previous rooftop for initiating his escape as bait.

The Flaming Hero landed hard on the ground and caused a tiny shockwave to its surroundings. However, his entire body was still fresh as usual after he fell from a very tall building due to a flaming wave enveloped his entire body.

His eyes were still stunned in disbelief and a flat bloody pool was created beneath Sparror lying down the body. The N.T.P.D police car that contained Tabata and Takayashi, stopped their movement and the senior officer harshly opened the door before he ran to The Flaming Hero in a mixture of stoic and worried.

Takayashi also opened and much to his dismay, he frowned with Sparror that slept like a lifeless husk. Any sign, sound, and inch of movement didn't appear. the only thing that happened on The Flaming Hero was a bloody pool that enlarged from his forehead that had a hole.

"Wake up, Sparror." Tabata uttered in a deep tone.

Takayashi was shot by confusion with his senior act towards Sparror who was pretty much dead he directly received a bullet on his head. As a result, He gritted the unnerving teeth towards Tabata from behind.

"Sir Tabata, as much as I don't want to accept this, that wound already killed him." He murmured with a line of tears dropping, "How do you expect that he will wake up?!"

"I know I kind of dislike Superheroes, but if they died, I felt guilty because we still needed their help to stop most of the Superhuman criminals that we could only slow down until they arrive." He added in despair mannerism.

The response from Tabata was completely empty and Takayashi's confusion increased within him as hopeless feelings began to scar him. The senior policeman looked down to The Flaming Hero's corpse and clenched a regretful fist.

"At least, he attempted to stop it." Takayashi tried to comfort the senior with unnerving tears, "It's just the enemy was much better than him….and let's just capture the killer to honor his death."

Tabata looked upon the forehand that had a Kanji painted on it that suddenly glowed a ray of light, calming his own frantic expression. The senior officer sighed deeply before he glared at The Flaming Hero that seemingly was on the brink of death.

"WAKE UP, SPARROR!" He screamed in distress, "We already lost so many Superheroes in Neo Tokyo city and you were the only one that we had right now. Nippon Carnival, Raytom, Chemistra, and Shockerman either died or went missing in ACTION! What Zero? That guy has his own city to protect in Americanary and he was not even full-time here!"

"What, Narajime?!" Tabata added in fiery anger, "Yes there was a rumor that he still lives, but that asshole couldn't be trusted and the last thing he did, almost fucking destroy Neo Tokyo and caused the death of Raytom!"

"Remember yesterday, I saw you grew a new arm and I know these injuries mean nothing to your regeneration power. Please wake up now!"

Takayashi was completely stunned with his senior with his desperate hand trying to reach. Furthermore, a sense of hopelessness invaded his mind as he dropped a single line of tears from his eyes socket when approaching Tabata,

Till a spark of clarity emerged in the policeman's eyes due to a glimpse of flaming light spread out like a dawn sun. The corpse-like Sparror smoothly raised from the bloody pool and the trail of blood on the body was evaporated by a flaming swarm as well as the hole on his forehead, leaving no bullet mark on the forehead.

Takayashi dropped his jaw and rolled over his eyes in stunning disbelief unlike his senior, Tabata who gave a glimpse of a grateful smile as he witnessed Sparror regain his consciousness. The Flaming Hero landed on the ground slowly and as his feet tapped the ground, a flaming swarm consumed the entire bloody pool.

Sparror locked to the policemen and nodded down in guilty, yet uneasy yellow eyes with them. Therefore, he bowed towards the two policemen who were surprised by his actions.

"Thank you and sorry." Sparror apologized as he swallowed his saliva, "For being a burden like this."

Tabata responded by a chuckle, while the younger policeman took further steps of oddness and confusion through his raising eyebrows.

"No need to say that," Tabata replied in a calm voice and gave a glimpse of a smile.

Sparror raised up his bowing body and sighed in relief before he gazed at the sky above that illuminated a yellow divine light. Soon, a tremblingly yellow glimpse of a long ponytail hair woman and short hair glasses man shone on Sparror very eyes that made him stood motionlessly like a statue for about a second in yearning eyes before he turned back to the two policemen's attention

"Eh, officer, do you have any clue where that white half-naked guy appeared?" Sparror politely asked.

Tabata rubbed his police hat swiftly and gave a deep smile of enjoyment. Takayashi 's looks ventured in oddness and disbelief with all of these happening, especially his senior reaction that made him roll his eyes.

N.T.P.D drones surrounded the sky and locked their stare to the moving target that hopped into other buildings and left his white transparent clone, alone on the rooftop. It also boosted his jumping speed and made the mini-missile fired from the drone, missed the main target.

Instead, the missile hit the transparent body that phased through the skin and continued the free aimless movement. Four N.T.P.D policemen from below the building aimed their dark blue riffle and pulled the trigger, causing a rapid-fire of bullet row on Hollow.

The White Assassin gracefully blocked by jumping in reverse, left, right, forwards. The four-direction continuously moved as he danced like a professional ballerina and every incoming bullet couldn't due to each of them only hitting the clone especially for those bullets that were about to make harsh contact with his skin, he called out a white misty clone to take his role as target practice and helped him to evade it

Even a combined force of a couple of missile shots from the drone, couldn't hit the target that spawned the tributing clone, while he took a safe space. The worst thing came for N.T.P.D policemen's eyes when Hollow hoisted a sniper and fired each capsule bullet in a rapid-fire way due to a boost blessed by his own aura.

Every single drone penetrated bullets that made them omit damaged blue electricity and fell down to the ground in a broken state. The officers slowly dropped their rifles when they witnessed the rooftops were full of a display of clones whom Hollow created after hopping from building to building.

Each of the leftover clones was on the rooftop. decided to split its consciousness into a cloud of white dust before it flew freely to the blue sky that soon turned into a speck of dust. Nevertheless Hollow found a good spot for shooting the policeman with his sniper rifle.

Thus The N.T.P.D policemen's eyebrows raised up and frighteningly shivered their spine with Hollow aimed his sniper one-handed. There was even a policeman who slowly took step by step in a reverse manner and the sweat of fear dropped faster than the raindrop.

As Hollow's finger was ready to press the sniper trigger, the laming twister arrived on the scene and debuted Sparror beside him. Moreover, The Flaming Hero called upon a giant flaming hand in a grabbing position.

The White Assassins swiftly pushed himself backward, leaving the intangible white clone to be captured by Sparror's giant fist. Afterward, Hollow pushed himself to the right making a triangular line, and locked his unfazed stare to The Flaming Hero that turned around to meet with his sight.

"Do you want to settle this, somewhere safe?" Sparror politely asked.

Hollow just stood in silence like a statue as Sparror started to observe his body from up to down and left to right. More oddness was the only thing that The Flaming Hero found from The White Assassin's unfazed reaction.

"This guy was most likely mute and even though his costume was literally a half-naked guy." Sparror commented by bringing his oddness toward his mind, "He was quite odd to face with".

Sparror glared at the sniper in a short time and moved his sight to the clone that watched him aside momentarily. His eyes continued to scan the functionality or determine whether the clone would be a possible threat for him to face too.

"Somehow, he could summon a duplicate of himself and I really hoped it wasn't alive." Sparror commented in a little pessimistic voice towards his mind, "Even so, his marksman skill was insane especially because he just shot a sniper with only one hand and the worst thing about was he didn't use a scope for getting an accurate shot."

Without any warning sign, Hollow ran to Sparror before drawing a fist, clouded by blue and white energy. The Flaming Hero pointed his molten hand to summon a flaming arrow to construct that thrust out from the open palm intangible.

The arrow was so vast that it already closed on The White Assassin in less than a second, but Hollow had a new trick in his sleeve, and this time, he jabbed back with his shoulder. As a result, his body was swiftly pulled back like a magnet towards the leftover clone at lightning speed.

The arrow in a hurry redirected the direction after it noticed the target was out of its range and changed into a giant gripping flaming fist. As the grip was closed enough to capture Hollow, he fired another yellow capsule bullet onto the unnoticed Sparror as The White Assassin landed on the clone position, mashed its existence with his bare body in the process.

The flaming fist stopped moving with Sparror realized by raising his yellow eyes in shock. Nonetheless, he switched his attention completely towards the yellow capsule bullet that smoothly flew down to the policemen and forcefully let go of the thought of capturing Hollow.

In the nick of time, the flaming twister consumed The Flaming Hero's entire body before he vanished in instance and The White Assassin put down his sniper as a sound of a high pitch robotic girl voice that repeatedly said, "Warning, Warning, out of ammo, out of ammo." Afterward, he hopped away by leaving a duplicate of himself in the previous position and prepared himself for a free fall.

The N.T.P.D policeman that became a main target for the assassin bullet didn't even raise his awareness that his life was going to be taken away due to the bullet movement was faster than a sound could reach. However, Sparror reappeared in front of his sight and cast out an elongated flaming hand from the molten hand, and caught the bullet with its grip.

The policeman was indeed shocked by dropping his jaw, and his three comrades also did the same thing. The assassin bullet was evaporated into a cloud of dust by the burning grip before the construct vanished away from their naked eyes.

"Hello, officer, are you okay?" Sparror asked in a relaxing tone.

"Sure….maybe." The policeman answered in a nervous manner

Sparror sighed in gladness before he called forth the flaming twister to binding the whole armor as he had another mission. A respectful salute was given towards the policemen by The Flaming for his own form of farewell.

"Sorry, I have to go, officer." Sparror apologized in pity.

Therefore, Sparror instantly vanished on the scene without leaving any physical traces. Instead, it gave a hopeful atmosphere through the policemen in the form of a smirked and sighed.

"Alpha squad, retreat now from chasing missions. Right now my order is to ensure the safety of citizens because we can't spawn a barrier due to the criminal coordinate kept moving." Tabata's voice echoed through their earbuds and The N.T.P.D policemen nodded in silence, hoping the new hero might stop this criminal.
