The sharp grappling hook pierced into the back of the Skeleton Titan. The trigger was pulled, and the steel cable instantly retracted, pulling Levi's body rapidly toward the Skeleton Titan.
The blades, reinforced with black-gold bamboo material, were incomparably sharp. Two cold-glinting blades were tightly gripped in Levi's hands.
The Skeleton Titan's hideous, twisted face showed no change, but at some unknown moment, its withered arm suddenly blocked in front of Levi, as if trying to grab him like a chick.
But… he was Levi!
The gas from the Vertical Maneuvering Equipment instantly stopped spraying. Losing forward thrust, Levi's body still surged forward due to inertia, but his speed dropped sharply.
Just as the Skeleton Titan's palm came within a few meters of Levi, his body happened to fall downward, exquisitely dodging the grab.
After evading the Skeleton Titan's arm, Levi pulled the trigger again mid-fall, and his body shot into the air once more.
Like lightning, he flashed behind the Skeleton Titan's nape.
"Get out here!"
With a look of disgust, Levi tightened his grip on the twin blades and slashed down in a zigzag pattern.
...
On the other side, facing the Eldian Revival Army ahead, the royal-blood Jaw Titan behind, and the soldiers of Paradis Island above, sweat seeped into Magath's palms.
And just as Serena was brimming with confidence—an unexpected change occurred. Inside the hardened crystal grasped by the royal-blood Jaw Titan, Lara Tybur's eyeball actually moved.
Historia had been safely inside the nape, but in the next second, her vision spun violently. By the time she reacted, she found herself more than ten meters above the ground.
"Huh? What just happened??"
Just moments ago, without any warning, a thick hardened crystal pillar burst out of the ground, piercing straight through the royal-blood Jaw Titan like skewered candied fruit, lifting its massive body over ten meters into the air.
At the same time, the hardened crystal in the royal-blood Jaw Titan's grasp began to emit astonishing golden electric arcs. A long hardened tube extended outward, and a Titan body began forming from it.
Only when the War Hammer Titan was about to reappear did Historia realize her mistake—she had underestimated it. She hadn't expected the War Hammer Titan to still have the stamina to transform again.
As the royal-blood Jaw Titan struggled, the gray-white War Hammer Titan reappeared on the battlefield. In haste, white light condensed, forming a hardened longsword in its hand, which it swung down toward the royal-blood Jaw Titan.
Crack!
But the crown-like blade protrusion atop the royal-blood Jaw Titan's head possessed unimaginable hardness, actually blocking the strike. However, the War Hammer Titan quickly changed tactics, slicing off the arm holding the hardened crystal that contained Lara's true body.
Then it swiftly caught it and shoved it into its own nape.
"Your Majesty!?"
On top of a tall building, Petra and the other members of Levi Squad cried out in alarm. They immediately led the soldiers of Paradis Island into action, charging together toward the War Hammer Titan.
The War Hammer Titan did not continue attacking the royal-blood Jaw Titan. At this moment, Marley's side was already at an absolute disadvantage. What mattered most now was taking its brother, Willy, and escaping.
A hardened shield formed in the War Hammer Titan's hand. Without even turning its head, it stood in front of Magath and the others, uttering a single word:
"Go!!"
Magath snapped back to his senses and roared to the soldiers behind him, "Follow the War Hammer Titan and break out! Now!"
"Spread out!"
Seeing the War Hammer Titan charging forward, Serena quickly ordered her subordinates to scatter. They only had ordinary rifles—there was no way they could withstand a Titan.
"The War Hammer Titan has appeared again! Mikasa, let's stop it!"
Eren climbed out of the nape of the Attack Titan. Mikasa said nothing, only nodded, then held Eren once again as they rushed toward the War Hammer Titan.
"The War Hammer Titan still hasn't been dealt with?"
Airi and Zofia, who had just arrived near the venue, also spotted the distant War Hammer Titan.
"Zofia, go help our comrades in the Revival Army and calm the people in the internment zone. I'll stop the War Hammer Titan!"
Airi turned her head and instructed Zofia.
Zofia nodded.
"Don't worry, I'll do my best!"
After speaking, Zofia quickly ran off obediently.
Airi took a deep breath. She had only just recovered a bit of stamina, and facing the legendary War Hammer Titan still put immense pressure on her. She could only hope that Boss Yago would finish quickly and come help.
Gripping her small dagger tightly, Airi ran straight toward the War Hammer Titan.
"Tch… this is a bit troublesome, you ugly freak."
Levi spat lightly. He had already attacked the Skeleton Titan's nape over a dozen times, dulling two blades in the process.
And Levi realized that every time he cut open the Skeleton Titan's nape, strange black mist would instantly rise from the wound, and it would rapidly regenerate.
Levi landed atop a piece of rubble, knocked off the blades in his hands, and drew two fresh ones. Across from him, the Skeleton Titan timely revealed an ugly, mocking grin.
That grin successfully enraged Levi.
So you can regenerate, huh? Let's see how long you can keep it up!
Levi reversed his grip on the blade handle with his right hand, assuming the starting stance of his signature move.
Thud—
The Silver-Split Titan tossed Bazel and Litt down like dead dogs. Ivanor sat on the ground, her face pale. Bill climbed out of the Silver-Split Titan's nape, frowned, and walked over to Litt.
Then Bill took out a small box from his pocket. From it, he pulled out a small syringe and a vial of liquid, drew the liquid into the syringe, grabbed Litt's arm, and injected it directly.
Immediately, Litt's originally weak body trembled violently. Then his body began shaking uncontrollably. He suddenly opened his eyes, and faint crimson electric arcs flickered within his pupils.
"Hurry up and get up. The Marleyans are about to be finished—we should leave too."
The Skeleton Titan let out an unsettling roar, but this time, there seemed to be a hint of shock mixed within it.
Splat!
In midair, that figure could no longer be described as merely fast—its speed had reached the extreme. It was impossible to see clearly, only a blurred silhouette and flashing blade light.
In the blink of an eye, the Skeleton Titan's arm shattered into countless pieces. That figure then struck behind the Skeleton Titan, grappling hooks deeply piercing into its nape. Levi's eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Go on—smile again for me."
Using inertia and the propulsion of gas, Levi's body spun at high speed like a tornado. The speed was so fast that as his twin blades rotated, they formed a deadly halo of light.
This move—
As Yago would say—
No Titan can withstand the Captain's whirlwind spinning top.
