He wanted to find something that could wedge those rock slabs into the breach at the base of the Wall.
"Tsk, only a few gravity guns are within budget, but they can't move rock slabs weighing tens of tons."
Of course, there were also several types of teleportation items, both technological and magical. Unfortunately, they had many limitations due to their low cost and couldn't move anything too oversized.
Thinking about size, Asahi suddenly realized, why must it be stone?
Looking at the Titans swaying around, didn't he conveniently have "raw materials" large enough to plug the Wall?
So, he casually leaped off the bell tower, attracting the Titans crawling below to chase him.
Asahi arrived at the breach in front of Shiganshina, deliberately slowing his movement to let the Titans follow. As soon as he reached the breach, he took out a hexagonal object with a spider symbol in the center.
Spider Web Bomb.
When activated, the Spider Web Bomb explodes, forming a cluster of spider webs that seal a pathway. It is typically used in confined and narrow architectures for best effectiveness. Note: the larger the web, the lower the toughness and durability of the silk.
He threw the Spider Web Bomb right into the center of the breach in the Shiganshina Wall and activated it. Immediately, it exploded, creating a large layer of spider web that completely sealed the hole.
Although stretched, the web still looked quite sturdy. However, the Titans could easily tear it down. Asahi didn't rely on just this.
The foolish Titans were lured by him and rushed in to fill the spider web, causing it to nearly tear in the first second. Due to the obstruction of the web, the Titans were squeezed into a block, nearly filling the hole in the Wall, exactly according to his plan.
A device that looked like a sterilization machine, connected to a large tank on his back, appeared in his hand. Asahi flipped the start switch and pulled the trigger.
Industrial Adhesive Applicator Set.
Industrial adhesive, once released from the vacuum container, quickly sticks and hardens. The hardened adhesive can resist physical attacks to a moderate extent, is weak against energy attacks, and has a hardening duration of one year. Note: the adhesive is non-toxic, has good air permeability, is almost harmless when poured on a person, only dangerous when sprayed inside a person. It is advised not to follow the latter.
This item was created in some world for capturing criminals and suppressing riots, and was very popular due to its safe nature.
Asahi chose it simply for its hardening ability and its low cost.
Splat!
Each adhesive bullet fired out, exploding into patches that fixed the Titans together, sticking them to the breach in the Wall.
They struggled to escape, but unfortunately, the adhesive hardened too quickly and was very tough, just as advertised.
Looking at the hands still waving through the uncovered gaps in the adhesive, Asahi finally felt a bit satisfied.
Just then, the sound of gas firing appeared nearby. Over twenty Survey Corps soldiers descended near where Asahi was standing. Their faces held both admiration and apprehension. As the people who had dealt with Titans the most, they understood the horror of these creatures better than anyone, and thus were even more in awe of his strength.
As for the apprehension, just by looking at his appearance, one could tell he was absolutely not on the side of the righteous.
Only one person approached him with an expectant look: Erwin Smith.
"Sir, thank you for saving this place."
"Don't thank me yet, deal with that breach over there first."
There were still many Titans roaming in Shiganshina. A portion of them had already passed through the breach in Wall Maria. If not quickly sealed, all the Titans would flood in, causing a small-scale rampage.
So, Asahi continuously ran from one end of the district to the other, while telling Keith to command a few Survey Corps soldiers to lure some 12 to 15-meter-tall Titans over here.
Seeing him move across the rooftops at near-supersonic speed, the soldiers were incessantly terrified. In their entire lives, they had never seen anyone move so fast using only their legs.
"Commander, I thought you were exaggerating..."
"When have I ever joked? Today has had too many astonishing events. The Colossal Titan that towered over the Wall, the Armored Titan that breached Maria, and this mysterious person as well."
Keith sighed. Erwin suddenly moved closer to him and whispered.
"Commander, could this person be the Asahi we brought back earlier?"
"Your reminder just made me remember. The first time I saw this person was at Doctor Yeager's house, where we took Asahi..."
"Commander, what should we do? Keep his existence a secret? You know, those people in Sina won't care that he saved Maria; they only care about their own interests and the power he holds."
The latter words truly expressed Erwin's worries. This was a very cruel, very dark world. If Asahi showed any resistance toward the government inside Wall Sina, they could completely demote him to a criminal, fabricating all sorts of lies about him to force him into submission. No matter how many people he saved, or how great his merits, it would be useless.
But the worrying part wasn't that, it was Asahi's resistance. He was too strong, too terrifying, absolutely not something that the hedonistic Military Police in Sina could confront.
Erwin could perfectly imagine the scenario of Asahi storming the Royal Palace, taking the King's head in front of everyone. He wasn't joking; with that speed alone, the King would likely die before he could even close his eyes.
"Don't rush, this is just your speculation."
"Even so,..."
"If what you think could actually happen, we will conceal Asahi's origins."
Keith said in a deep voice, making Erwin realize.
That's right, Asahi had appeared before many people—residents, Garrison soldiers, and the Survey Corps—but he was wearing a mask. No one could fundamentally recognize him.
Thus, concealing it would be much simpler.
Apart from the two of them, no one would link the man rescued from the Titan's stomach to the powerhouse who had cleared out the Titans in Shiganshina and saved Wall Maria.
While the two were secretly discussing, Asahi had sealed the breach in the Wall, creating a massive protruding block made of Titans.
Afterward, he entered the territory of Wall Maria to slay the stray Titans.
Witnessing Asahi directly splitting a 3-meter-tall Titan in half, taking a running jump to behead a 5-meter-tall Titan, leaping up to stab the nape of a 7-meter-tall Titan, and vaulting across a rooftop to slice the nape of a 12-meter-tall Titan, the Survey Corps soldiers, who had spent their youth learning how to kill Titans, didn't know what expression to make.
It got to the point where they wondered if the Titans near Asahi were "broken" because they were killed so easily.
When the work was done, he climbed onto the top of the Wall to rest, watching the sunset descend.
"Now, we can talk."
"Keith Shadis, Erwin Smith."
He turned around, looking toward Keith and Erwin. It was clearly a very ordinary look, but both of them felt an immense pressure, as if a large rock was pressing down on their chests.
