Everyone Suffers in Wars

"Boom! Boom!" 

In the forest, Eren, who had transformed into a titan, began to attack the female titan without stopping, with heavy punches, elbows and knees. Eren's style was very violent and the female titan was hit again and again. 

She had consumed a lot of physical strength all the way here, she became a titan for the second time, so Annie could not have much strength to resist Eren in her energetic state. 

Eren learned his fighting skills from Annie, and also learned fighting skills from Takashi. Although Takashi felt that he still lacked much more experience to beat Annie without making use of his Chakra, most of his Eren skills he learned himself. 

At this moment, Eren was attacking the female titan with a basic boxing stance taught by Takashi, attacking again and again without stopping. 

Fighting, Eren couldn't help but be puzzled, he felt that the enemy's blocking was a bit familiar to him, and he even felt that the female titan seemed to know his fighting skills very well, so many of his fierce attacks were dodged and blocked by her. Eren, who watched her attacks hit us, was a bit anxious. 

"Roar!" 

Eren in his titan form became irritable and swung his fist at the female titan. The female titan avoided the heavy blow, turned around and ran away while Eren chased her mindlessly. 

Not that the female titan couldn't be defeated, but she has to study the enemy and wait for Eren to make a mistake. Although Eren kept his sanity after transforming, the death of one of his teammates from Levi's squad still left him a bit overwhelmed. He should retreat at this point, but Eren didn't want to let the female titan escape.

Thus, the two titans chased each other into the forest. Meanwhile, Takashi and Petra followed closely behind them, both of them could not participate in this battle otherwise Eren would be distracted. 

On the other hand, Captain Levi followed Commander Erwin's advice and refueled his tanks, then rushed to fight where his squadron started the fight against the female titan. 

After learning where the squadron was, Captain Levi saw the lifeless body of Private Gunther Schultz lying on the ground, his body split in half had been bitten by the female titan. 

Levi's expression became more indifferent and his eyes became sharp, he looked at the tracks left by titan blows and knew that Eren had transformed. 

What relieved him a little was that at least he didn't see the bodies of Auruo, Petra and Erd, they might still be alive. 

Just as he was about to look for where Eren and the others were, he heard Erd's voice in the distance, "Captain, over here!" 

Levi averted his gaze and looked at Erd in the distance at the top of a tree, with his maneuvering gear he approached him immediately, "Erd, what's the situation, how are you feeling?" 

"The female titan surprised us, a soldier in our legion's uniform appeared next to us and after seeing the second signal in the sky, we knew it was an enemy." Erd's expression was pale and he said, "Gunther died, if it wasn't for young Takashi we could have all died, I should follow them." 

"Where are they?" Levi looked at Erd and knew he had been wounded. 

"Takashi and Petra went in that direction, Auruo went to call for reinforcements." Erd said with a suffering smile. 

"I understand, I'll take care of what's left, rest here and wait for reinforcements." Levi said with a cold expression. 

"Captain, finish off that female titan." Said Erd happy that his captain had arrived late but just when it was needed. 

"Good job." Levi gave Erd one last look before chasing the tracks left by the titans, and on the other side, Mikasa, who was aware of Eren's roar after he transformed, also chased the rest. She left much later and was closer to Eren than the reinforcements. 

But she felt something much more for Eren and changed course, her speed was too fast completely ignoring the waste of gas she was making. 　 

At the same time, Auruo Brossard, who went to call for reinforcements, joined Commander Erwin and reported the process of the battle in detail. 　　 

Commander Erwin's complexion was grim, he underestimated the strength of the female titan, it turns out that she was able to transform again. He already knew the hardening ability, but he did not know if the high healing factor had used it before. 

Thinking about this, Takashi had to use his power to face the white titan who was successfully killed. According to reports, compared to the power of Eren and the female titan, Eren's power is not good enough and his chances to win against the female titan are not great. 

Commander Erwin looked at Auruo, who was touching his arms with a face full of despair, and asked, "You said Petra was saved by Takashi, how is she doing?" 

Auruo Brossard was puzzled for a moment and said, "His speed was too great, but mysteriously he didn't attack the female titan after saving Petra, is something wrong?" 　　 

Commander Erwin looked off into the distance calmly, "Forget it, it may be exhausted from the long battle it has done since the expedition began." 

Erwin Smith speculated that the wear and tear on Takashi's body had been from using his power and he wasn't entirely wrong, Takashi had suffered some sort of wear and tear that prevented him from continuing to attack the female titan. 

Takashi after having used his Susanoo and a weapon once again, he didn't want to make use of that power if it wasn't necessary. Today he had lost about thirteen years of useful life, another heavy blow to his life and what he could live from now on. 

He was aware that the power of the female titan was not too great, he was sure that he, his uncle Levi and Mikasa could take down the female titan with ease. However, now is not the time, after being attacked by an unknown titan, they all needed to regroup. 

Mike also reflected and remarked, "The one in trouble now is Eren, I hope he wasn't killed or captured." 

Auruo Brossard was very disappointed and said, "It's our fault, we revealed our position to our enemy and failed to contain the female titan, Eren transformed to save us." 　　 

The commander shook his head. He knew Eren's character better and would not blame Levi's squadron. Once Gunther was killed, Erd was injured and Takashi along with the others were in no position to fight, Eren would definitely have to fight. Now that most of Levi's squad was alive, this outcome was considered somewhat timely. 

As Auruo Brossard gave the report, two squadrons in perfect condition were sent to the support of Levi and Eren's squadron. They could not afford to lose Eren, as long as they survived, the war would never end. 

After Takashi and Petra were overseeing the battle of Eren and the female titan, all they could do was stand aside. They could not help in this battle. 

Eren, who was still fighting, was once again suppressed by the female titan, he was stunned by the female titan's fighting skills. 

"Shua!" 

Seizing the opportunity, the female titan kicked Eren's head and with the hardened foot, in a matter of seconds the attack came without Eren being able to do anything! 

"Plaf!" 

Eren in his titan form lay motionless on the ground, stunned not knowing what had happened and before he could know he had been defeated, he looked up at the female titan. 

How would Eren continue to fight if his head had been torn off? In this situation, there was nothing else he could do.　 

"Petra, you go get Eren and I'll take care of distracting the female titan!" shouted Takashi as he saw that Eren had been defeated. 

"Be careful!" Petra agreed. 

Taking a long breath, Takashi prepared to attack the female titan, the only thing he could do now was delay her while Petra took Eren. 

"Swoosh!" 

Without the female titan discovering Takashi's existence among the trees, he took advantage of the moment he was distracted with Petra and attacked. 

"Cut!" 

Moving as fast as he could, Takashi was able to hit one eye of the female titan successfully. 

Moving quickly through the trees, Takashi pretended to attack several times to make the female titan's defenses go up. 

In the distance, Miakasa looked at Eren and rushed to help, she had to save Eren and get out of this place. 

"Cadet, what are you doing? Go help Takashi, I'm in charge of getting Eren out of here." Petra shouted with a cold stare. 

It was then that Mikasa reacted and looked at Takashi who was dodging the female titan's punches with a lot of work. 

However, just before Miaksa joined the battle, a shadow came out of the forest and blinded the other eye of the female titan. 

Takashi, who sighed in relief at the sight of the reinforcements, backed off leaving room for Levi to deal with the female titan. 

Seeing Levi's dexterity in making use of his three-dimensional maneuvering equipment, Mikasa felt that Takashi was very similar in dexterity. 

The female titan no longer had the physical strength to continue facing Levi and other more soldiers that were closing in as she continued to fight. Reluctantly, Annie found an opportunity to defend herself and get away from Eren. 　　 

Levi's operation was perfect, he wounded the female titan badly before stopping. It was not safe to continue fighting in this condition, Takashi seemed to be in very bad condition and Erd still needed to be rescued. 

When Levi had the opportunity, he retreated along with Takashi and the others. After Captain Levi stepped back, he looked towards the female titan and to his surprise, the female titan was crying. 

Outsiders can't understand Annie's mood right now, it's not just that the mission failed. 

When she first entered this island she lost someone very important in her group, because of her fear she could not become a titan to save him. Times were tough and Reiner took on the role of leader to continue the task, he almost died numerous times before he was able to reach the wall Maria. 

After destroying the wall, they mingled with the inhabitants of these walls. She worked day and night for the mission to be completed. She joined the gendarmerie but discovered nothing and just as she was about to capture Eren, everything went wrong. 

Not only did everyone know her weaknesses, but there was another human with a power far more fierce than any other titan. Even the warhammer titan was completely defeated. Now he knew that this mission could not be completed by just the three of them. 

They had to wait for the beast titan to appear, there was no other way to defeat Takashi.
