Surprisingly, Da Hong did not retaliate immediately.
He simply stood there, completely motionless, allowing the bullets screaming toward him to embed themselves into his body as if he felt nothing at all.
Only when several bullets struck his eyes did the aura around him suddenly begin to surge.
Da Hong had always been violent by nature.
The reason he usually appeared calm—almost as if he had taken tranquilizers—came from a tragic story.
His original name was Kirenenko.
He once had an older brother named Killeruk.
Before they were imprisoned, the two brothers had been notorious gang leaders in the underworld, running a powerful syndicate together.
His brother had a gentle personality.
Da Hong, on the other hand, had always been volatile and explosive.
Eventually they were betrayed by their own subordinates.
Gravely wounded, the brothers were captured and thrown into prison.
Inside prison, Da Hong's injuries were catastrophic—
one of his eyes and half of his head were gone.
To save him, his brother gave him one of his own eyes and part of his head.
After the surgery—
His brother disappeared forever.
After recovering, Da Hong was no longer as explosively angry as before.
Most of the time he simply read newspapers, sat on the toilet reading newspapers, or carefully polished his canvas sneakers.
Often he even wore two different sneakers.
One was the style he liked.
The other was the style his brother had liked.
Because of that—
No one was allowed to touch his sneakers.
They were the last memory he had of his brother.
After receiving his brother's eye and half of his head, Da Hong's personality split into three distinct states.
Calm State (Brother's Temperament)
Quiet and composed.
Usually reading newspapers or polishing sneakers. Anger State
Triggered when someone attacks him or treats him rudely. Berserk State
Triggered when someone damages or dirties his canvas sneakers.
In that state—
He becomes a monster capable of slaughtering anything in his path.
One day in prison, he saw a pair of red canvas sneakers in a newspaper advertisement.
Completely obsessed, he broke out of prison with Green Rabbit, carrying a suitcase full of cash, gold bars, and carrots.
But the moment they escaped—
A mysterious power suddenly transported them into a completely unfamiliar world.
Following that mysterious force, Da Hong eventually found Kairo in a café.
The moment he saw Kairo—
He felt an inexplicable familiarity.
For a brief moment, Kairo even reminded him of his brother.
Because like his brother—
Kairo disliked meaningless violence.
Later, Kairo brought them to Foosha Village.
He even bought Da Hong many pairs of canvas sneakers.
At first, Da Hong hadn't actually liked canvas sneakers.
He liked them because his brother had liked them.
So he had planned to buy a pair and give them to Kairo—
To his new big brother in this world.
But he never expected that simply trying to buy a pair of shoes would lead to humans chasing him down like this.
Enough was enough.
The flames of rage exploded inside him.
The next second—
Da Hong's eyes widened.
The bullets embedded in his body suddenly shot back out like missiles.
In an instant, a large group of soldiers surrounding the shoe store were blasted off their feet.
"Damn it!"
Seeing dozens of his men fall instantly, Simon reacted quickly.
He drew his sword and deflected several incoming bullets while shouting:
"Spread out! Everyone spread out!"
"The rabbit's gone berserk!"
"Fall back! Fall back!"
The soldiers who had already witnessed Da Hong's terrifying strength immediately retreated.
But by then—
It was too late.
After launching all the bullets back, Da Hong stepped forward.
A terrifying aura exploded from his body.
His face flushed red.
His eyes turned brilliant gold, shining with an almost supernatural glow.
"ROOOAAAR—!"
With a roar that shook the air, the berserk Da Hong moved like a demon released from hell.
In the blink of an eye—
He appeared in front of a soldier.
Before the man could even react, Da Hong's fist filled his vision.
BOOM!
The soldier shot upward like a rocket.
He disappeared into the sky within seconds.
But Da Hong didn't stop.
He charged straight into the formation of soldiers.
Boom after boom echoed across the street.
One soldier after another was launched into the air.
Within seconds—
Every soldier who had come to this street was sent flying into the sky.
None remained.
In just two breaths, hundreds of soldiers had vanished.
Only Simon, the captain of the guard, remained standing.
His eyes were wide with terror.
He stood frozen in place.
Da Hong, still wearing his terrifying berserk expression, suddenly appeared in front of him.
His massive fist slowly rose above his head.
Meanwhile — High Town
In another part of Goa Kingdom—
Saint Charloss, the Celestial Dragon from Mary Geoise, walked arrogantly down the street wearing his bubble helmet.
He was surrounded by bodyguards and accompanied by the Goa Kingdom royal family.
Nobles from High Town knelt on the ground to greet him.
At that moment, a CP0 agent approached him and bowed.
"Saint Charloss, please relocate to the palace immediately. A monster has invaded Central Street."
Hearing this, the King of Goa Kingdom standing nearby turned pale.
Goa Kingdom was known as "the most beautiful country in the East Blue."
For years they had maintained strict isolation policies, forcing all undesirable people and things outside the city walls.
Now a monster had invaded the capital.
That alone was already humiliating.
Worse—
A Celestial Dragon was present to witness it.
Even if the monster never threatened him directly, the mere fact that such chaos had occurred would severely damage Goa Kingdom's reputation.
"A monster?"
Saint Charloss frowned with displeasure.
"Isn't Goa Kingdom supposed to be the most beautiful country in the East Blue? How could monsters appear here?"
He paused.
Then suddenly remembered something.
"Wait… isn't that annoying Marine Vice Admiral Garp also in Central Street?"
"As a Vice Admiral of the Marines, he has a duty to protect all World Government member states."
"If Goa Kingdom is under attack, he is responsible."
"Go tell him to deal with it immediately."
"Otherwise, when I return to Mary Geoise, I will report this matter directly to the Five Elders."
