"Not good, this blood not only has a burning effect but also contains poison!"
Ronan felt the spiritual pressure within his body suddenly stagnate. As Ronan's attack intensity weakened, the Chameleon Hollow, which had been suppressed by Ronan, began to regain its ability to move.
Realizing the danger, Ronan wanted to retreat, but it was already too late!
"Pfft!"
The bone thorns, held tightly in the Chameleon's two front claws, directly pierced through Ronan's back!
"Ah! This beast can actually use weapons!"
Apparently, this Chameleon Hollow was using bone thorns from an unknown source as a weapon.
These two sharp thorns easily penetrated the keratin layer of Ronan's back, piercing into his flesh, causing Ronan to cry out in pain.
From his transmigration until now, over two months, although Ronan had already advanced to a powerful Hollow, the reason he evolved so quickly was mainly due to his human thinking, systematically hunting or acquiring resources. He still lacked experience in one-on-one direct combat like this, which is why he was caught off guard and interfered with by the poisonous blood.
Not to mention, the target he was fighting was a Giant Hollow, one rank higher than him.
Therefore, while taking a heavy blow, Ronan also desperately resisted the pain to keep himself calm and come up with a countermeasure.
Because he knew that the opponent's spiritual pressure and size were both superior to his own, if he accidentally fell into the opponent's attack rhythm, he would surely be in grave danger.
"Flash Lightning!"
With a furious roar from Ronan, dark golden lightning arcs began to erupt all over his body.
Currently, Ronan couldn't use Flash Lightning as a long-range output method, but as luck would have it, the Chameleon Hollow had directly stabbed two bone thorns into his back, which coincidentally gave Ronan an opportunity to counterattack.
"Zzzzt!"
Feeling the enormous current transmitted through the two bone thorns in its claws, the Chameleon Hollow immediately wanted to drop the bone thorns, but how could Ronan give him the chance?
He directly clasped the Chameleon Hollow's two front claws in a backhand grip, and at the same time, his centipede tail quickly wrapped tightly around the Chameleon.
Enduring the pain of the two bone thorns piercing through his back, he continued to release lightning arcs without stopping.
"Die!"
"Ah!!!"
The Chameleon Hollow, having just gained a slight advantage, was swiftly countered by Ronan, becoming charred black all over from the electricity.
He could only speak with difficulty to beg for mercy, clearly this Hollow, like Ronan, retained human intelligence.
"I was wrong, spare me! I will never... abuse dogs again!"
"Abuse dogs? Are you kidding me? Do you think I'm killing you because you abuse dogs? No, no, no, I just simply want to eat you!
Besides, you don't really know you're wrong; you just know you're about to die!"
Ronan looked at the Chameleon begging for mercy beneath him with a sneer on his lips, but he showed no sign of stopping, still releasing Flash Lightning at maximum power.
Ronan knew that if he stopped, he would surely face a frantic counterattack from his opponent!
"You can speak, you must be like me, possessing memories from your human period. We are the same kind! We can team up to hunt these lower-level creatures. With you and me working together, even a Hollow can be taken down!"
The Chameleon Hollow continued to babble.
Ronan remained unmoved, a hint of sarcasm appearing on the corner of his mouth beneath his mask:
"Since you choose to be a hunter, you must be prepared to become prey yourself! Why say so much? Just go peacefully!"
After speaking, Ronan opened his mouth, and a trace of black-red spiritual pressure gathered before his mouth—it was Cero!
Since Ronan had previously released Cero through his fingers, but this time both hands were suppressing the enemy, he could only release it through his mouth. Therefore, the release speed was significantly slower than when released by fingers, but at least it was successfully released.
Looking at the Cero that was about to be fully charged in front of him, Ampere Jinshi knew that if this Cero exploded at such a close range, he would surely die!
He immediately wanted to stick out his long tongue and begin to counterattack, but unfortunately, his most prized tongue had already been destroyed by Ronan's first Cero.
"You lunatic, if Cero explodes at such a close range, you'll also be heavily injured!"
However, Ronan completely ignored Ampere Jinshi's hysterical roar, and the Cero was quickly charged.
"Boom!!!"
After a loud bang, dust billowed everywhere.
Ampere Jinshi was originally a criminal in Karakura Town. Because he loved torturing and killing cats and dogs from a young age, he was disliked by his classmates, teachers, and even his parents.
As he grew up, he committed all sorts of crimes and evil deeds. During a robbery and murder, he was shot by police with a shotgun and died on the spot.
After his death, his obsession remained, and he transformed into a Hollow, entering Hueco Mundo. However, he never expected that he, unlike other Hollows, would not lose his sanity but instead retain his memories from his time as a human.
In just a few short years, he advanced from a Freshman Hollow to a Giant Hollow, and was even not far from becoming a Gillian.
One day, he finally found a remarkably intelligent dog-shaped Hollow and thought about torturing and killing it for fun, which is how he encountered Ronan.
"Cough, cough!"
As the dust cleared, Ronan, battered and tattered all over, let out a violent cough.
Looking around, he saw scattered pieces of flesh and broken mask fragments everywhere. The Chameleon Hollow had been blasted to smithereens by the Cero.
Ronan endured the intense pain and quickly pulled out the two sharp bone thorns embedded in his back.
"Gurgle!"
Crimson blood flowed from the two bloody holes in his back.
"Ah!"
Ronan grimaced in pain, but at the same time, he looked at the remains of the Chameleon Hollow in front of him with a smile in his eyes.
Ronan had single-handedly killed a Giant Hollow one rank higher than him, and not just any ordinary Giant Hollow.
"Woof woof woof!"
The dog-shaped Hollow, which had been scared away by the residual effects of their battle, ran back to Ronan.
It was holding a broken mask fragment of the Chameleon Hollow, which had been blown off by the Cero, in its mouth.
Ronan understood its meaning, extended his large hand to take the mask, and casually threw this piece of mask into his mouth.
As the high-concentration reishi dissolved within his body, Ronan felt comfortable all over. His originally bruised and battered body slowly began to recover, and the spiritual pressure that had been blocked by the blood poison also began to restore.
This dog-shaped Hollow now truly looked like a small dog, gazing at the enormous Ronan in front of him with a very human-like fawning expression on its face, desperately wagging its tail.
Unfortunately, its tail had been scorched by Ronan's Cero earlier.
This resulted in a somewhat comical sight as it tried to wag its tail but couldn't, instead just wiggling its backside.
"I was just hunting; saving you was just a side effect. If there's nothing else, hurry up and get lost, or else I'll eat you too in a bit!"
Ronan, seeing Little Yellow Dog's hesitant posture, immediately spoke impatiently.
He then began to feast on his spoils of war.
But then he looked at the pitiful dog-shaped Hollow in front of him and casually picked up a small piece of meat from the ground and threw it to Little Yellow Dog.
"Once you're done eating, hurry up and get out!"
For Ronan, it was a small piece of minced meat, but compared to the Little Yellow Dog Hollow, it was larger than its entire body.
Little Yellow Dog laboriously carried it aside and also began to eat.
