## Chapter Chronology

**Chaosy, Part ①**  is the first part of the thirtieth chapter of the manga *Choujin X.*

## Summary

Choujins develop different obsessions with their abilities such as pride, anger, or pleasure. A Choujin who steals the powers of others also takes the complexes on which they are based, thus creating a new one.

The fight between Simon and Noh Mask quickly turns into a clash of swords: between the **Pierced Viscera** and **Madomori**, capable of turning what he touches into mire.
Blinded by the rage of being outclassed by a skill stolen from his own clan, Simon activates **Rimbo**: a very fast circular blade that slices cleanly the opponent's torso.

However, Noh Mask does not break down and by activating **Dry Dawn** he uses moths to move his separate body parts.
Suddenly Simon realizes that something is wrong. Each successful hit on the enemy only results in a new moth cloud.
His body and senses quickly begin to fail, and he realizes the scales of the moths are responsible.
Having rendered the boy helpless with his new hallucinatory poison, Noh Mask plans to steal the monk Rimbo's main sword as well. Mysteriously he stops, stating that he doesn't want to give in to his collector's greed and that he doesn't have time for theft, but soon he will.

Back at the Tower Ruins, Yubiko, an abomination of limbs and heads, towers over Azuma, exhausted after she tore into his abdomen, leading him to realize he was defenseless against her attacks.
However, this does not stop the boy who, using his imagination, visualizes a new defense: the metal of his handcuffs takes the form of a medieval armor that covers his torso, arms and head, without being able to cover even his legs.

The second round begins with Yubiko determined to test the new armor but her heads and arms shatter on the Azuma's blades. The woman rejoices in the evolution of combat. His theory is that men who get stronger take a completely different path from others, and real men are forged on the battlefield. Anyone who thinks they can achieve them only with training is deluded. Yubiko is sure that the boy will become really strong ... if he survives.

As a mass of fingers protrude from her face and the body's limbs fuse together, the woman activates her **Chaos** form.
In her new form, a monstrous body built for fighting, she's ready for round three.

**Chaos** is the state in which a Choujin who goes berserker ends up. Their abilities impose themselves on them and so does their complex, which leads them to lose part of their sense of self.
Some religious organizations declare that **Chaos** is the means to reach 'god'. An abyss on the way to enlightenment.
It's actually just an out-of-control anomaly. And people like Yubiko just use it as another power, willingly plunging into the abyss where they leave too much of their humanity or even abandon it. Some come to proclaim themselves divinities.

Dancing at an impossibly fast pace, Yubiko repeatedly punches the boy through his armor, driving him to the point of losing control and declaring his will to kill her with hatred.
