Mercenary Enrollment - Ch. 270

One is a monster among monsters; he would have been a terrible leader for the Numbers. They would have all tried to kill One, or One would have killed them.

 

[HeadHeldTooHigh]

He may be One, but he's not the true "one." Ijin is the true "one" since he's well liked amongst the Numbers and a good leader back then. One may be good at combat, but his incessant killing with the trainees and instructors is not the role of a good leader.

Now i want to see 001 vs one. And thanks for the chapter Kay

So Mad Dog was always a pussy who couldn't control his men lol.

 

[AViolaineDiCiliegia]

One is the exact opposite of Ijin. He's even willing to kill 002, his own little brother. This explains why the team cares so much about 001/Ijin.

 

[Samdobb]

This kind of helps explain the near undying loyalty the numbers had toward Ijin. Imagine having One who killed off trainees for the slightest failure and then when Ijin becomes 001 the first thing he does is protect one of their comrades after he failed.

They weren't surprised he defeated Mad Dog in the process they surprised he cared at all.

Bingo! A few days ago I said that "One" reminded me of the killer from the "Lazarus" series (Soryu / "Phantom Killer" / Hundun). The construction of One is pretty much like that, and well, it seems to be the construction of Ijin's antagonist.

While Ijin grew up in the "Camp" thanks to teamwork (and even the "mercy" of Mad Dog), "One," on the contrary, wanted to be "the best of all," and in fact he was, for one simple reason: he killed without mercy.

I went back to rewatch the initial chapters of the series, which reminded me a bit of Ijin's past in the camp. From what I understood, Ijin's time there was the best for everyone because he reacted without hesitation and somehow also knew how to manage his group. However, due to remembering the past of his fall, he decided to leave the camp because he didn't know what to do and didn't want to kill uncontrollably anymore (even though he was more controllable than One).

Dude is definitely a problem. Thanks for the chapter!!!

 

[Purplelibraryguy]

Well. Creepy guy. But the question is, what side is he on, if any?

Chapters have been getting shorter for a while now but this one felt like less than half of older chapters were like.
