N-A-A Chapter 544 Fierce Battle, 1 Against 5 (The End)
Chapter 544 Fierce Battle, 1 Against 5 (The End)
The black rope was drawn with a clang, and a cold, sharp luster emanated from the blade.
Araki Kazuto held the black rope high with both hands, still maintaining his sweeping, slashing stance.
At the same time, the sea of clouds surged and churned, and the enormous black blade phantom stood in the sky like the long sword of a celestial being.
Nine tornadoes surged forth like giant dragons across the heavens and earth, while countless blazing white electric chains rushed towards them even before they could.
"Come!"
With a fierce shout, Arataki Ichito swung his sword down with both hands!
Armament Haki + Black Rope!
Black Rope - Falling from the Sky!
This name was created by Arataki Ichito for the combination of these two techniques. It has no unexpected abilities or effects; it has only one purpose.
That's strength, sheer power derived from the sheer accumulation of numerical values.
No need to charge up, no cost, use it without any worries!
Furthermore, due to the improvement in Arataki Ichito's Armament Haki, the power of this move increased exponentially.
The black blade phantom began to tilt, like a god from beyond the heavens wielding it, and crashed down upon everything in its path!
Black Rope: Heavenly Fall VS Immortal Magic: Nine Winds of Silence!
The destructive tornado and the crisscrossing longswords collided like meteors in the eyes of the two, and in an instant, the ultimate brilliance rose slowly between heaven and earth.
"So... I really don't like this kind of firefight at all, the light is too blinding!!"
Ignoring the deafening roar that shook the earth, Arataki Ichito stared intently at the tornado-shaped longswords that were being consumed in the mid-air as they clashed and merged into one, transforming into a hemispherical sphere of light that devoured everything. Then, it roared and broke through the clouds, forming a pillar of light that seemed like a miracle.
Neither Arataki Ichito nor Xiao were idle. In the very first second of their clash, the former switched back to the Red Horn Stone Crush, stepping on the stone pillar and transforming into a black cannonball that hurtled straight at Xiao.
Coincidentally, the latter thought the same thing.
The moment the blue comet clashed with the black cannonball, a surging wave of pure white air roared around like a hurricane, sending both of them flying backwards.
Xiao was no match for Arataki Ichito's overwhelming power, while the latter was unable to gain leverage in the air after his Sage Technique was blasted away.
The two plummeted downwards, and the moment they landed, they touched the ground with their toes and charged at each other at lightning speed.
The spear and the blade were separated in an instant; before the sparks from their friction had even dissipated in the air, a strong wind and golden light had already risen in another place.
The clanging of swords and spears lingered for a long time, and two afterimages flashed frequently as they engaged in several more rounds of fierce fighting.
boom! !
He was thrown heavily back to the ground again, then charged back into the fray to fight once more.
Aside from his old injuries, Xiao's left leg was now broken, with only some skin and flesh connecting it. His hands were split open at the base of his thumbs, his skin was cracked and bleeding all over his body, and there was a large gap in his right waist and abdomen, with a small part of his internal organs pierced through on the spot.
Arataki Ichito's right hand, which was holding a knife, had lost three fingers. He had switched to using his left hand, which only had four fingers left, to hold the knife. Bone spurs were piercing his flesh all over his body. The wound in his abdomen was almost completely cut open, and his intestines could be clearly seen inside.
Although he can quickly regenerate body tissue with the help of geckos, it still takes time, and a level six gecko doesn't yet have the super life repair skill.
To maintain his focus in battle, Araki Ichito even went so far as to deliberately suppress the regeneration of the geckos.
And thanks to this, Arataki Ichito is now completely and severely injured and on the verge of death, his combat power has almost tripled.
The terrifying numbers once again relentlessly pounded down on the head of the mutated fake Xiao.
A dark green gale roared and howled, and Arataki Ichito raised his hand and brought down another slash!
The golden and red sword light, like ocean waves, dispersed the raging wind, while Xiao rushed towards the distance.
"Don't run!"
Araki Ichito followed closely behind, his feet creating large spiderweb-like cracks in the ground as he rapidly advanced.
In the blink of an eye, the two found themselves in a deep pit.
Araki Ichito recognized this place; it was the center of the clash between him and the black rope earlier.
Since the start of the battle, the vast land has been ravaged by the enemy, with deep pits and cracks everywhere, resembling the cratered surface of the moon.
This is the most severely damaged area. The huge, sunken pit resembles a miniature basin, with tiny elemental particles remaining inside, and the residual high temperature causing white smoke to rise from the sand.
Araki Ichidou crashed to the ground with a "thud".
Xiao stood opposite him, watching him.
"Run, run, Xiao! No matter how fast you run, this will be your final resting place..."
Arataki Ichito thought to himself, his expression growing increasingly cold. He tapped the ground with his toes, transforming into a gust of evil wind as he charged towards the fake Xiao.
“Ahhhh——!!”
Xiao roared angrily and, along with Pu Yuan, charged towards Huanglong Yidou.
The two clashed with swords and spears in mid-air, but in less than a second, Xiao was caught off guard and kicked away.
Araki Ichito landed safely, but his expression was one of dissatisfaction.
"What's going on? You're full of openings. Young man, are you letting me win?"
"In this life-or-death battle, you... um? Wait a minute."
Arataki Ichito narrowed his eyes, carefully examining the immortal in the distance, his Observation Haki instantly enveloping him.
Xiao fell to the ground, his trembling hands supporting his body. He tried to stand up several times, but failed repeatedly because of his left leg.
"I see……"
Araki Kazuto suddenly realized, and couldn't help but laugh, "After fighting for so long, I forgot that your stamina was already exhausted. You were just overdrawing your body before."
"Damn it! I almost forgot that our stamina and health bars are not even in the same league. It's really impressive that you've managed to hold on until now and still be able to unleash a little guy's ultimate move."
Before he could finish speaking, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Xiao, and the Crimson Stone Pestle, carrying a terrifying force like an overwhelming tidal wave, slashed down fiercely at his head!
"Since you can no longer fight, then let me send you on your way!"
Araki Ichito's voice rang out almost simultaneously with the infinitely magnified golden light before their eyes.
Xiao gritted his teeth, and with his exceptional reflexes, he raised his hand to hold He Puyuan horizontally in front of him, the gun swirling gently in the wind.
In fact, Xiao had no strength left to use even a single magical technique. Now, it seemed that he could only place his hopes on the gun in his hand.
pound--!!
The deafening explosion echoed like thunder from the heavens, a golden crescent moon rose from the ground, and soil and rocks collapsed and flew on both sides, like the prelude to a major earthquake.
With a whoosh, Xiao's figure transformed into a black streak and flew backward again, crashing into a crater hundreds of meters away.
This time, his left leg was completely broken, and blood gushed out in large amounts. A line of blood stretched from his forehead to his abdomen, almost cutting him open as well.
The mangled, bloody fingers were twisted and irregularly contorted.
He Puyuan, which was placed on either side of him, had been split in two.
There was nothing Xiao could do; he was truly helpless this time.
He risked everything, with his brothers and sisters following one after another, and even his own life as a stake.
Why? Why can't we defeat that monster?
Why doesn't he fall down?
Why won't he back down?
Why is he fearless in the face of pain?
Why? Why?!
"Aaaaaahh ...
A hoarse voice, like the mournful cry of a demon, came from Xiao's mouth, its tone filled with sorrow, resentment, and extreme pain.
Two lines of bloody tears fell from his face, making him look extremely ferocious.
He didn't know where the strength came from, but he grabbed the broken spearhead with one hand and threw it into the air!
The spear pierced the air like a bullet.
Meanwhile, in the sky, Araki Ichito dragged the Akakakushi Kuchiki and hurtled straight toward Xiao with the force of a meteorite impact.
Araki Ichito completely ignored the flying kite.
In an instant, Pu Yuan and Huang Long clashed.
The spear tip struck the heart squarely, but before it could advance even an inch, it was firmly blocked by the flesh and tendons.
At the same time, the falling Araki Ichito slashed down with a single sword strike!
laugh! !
A head flew off, blood gushing like a fountain, then covered in endless golden light.
The dog bites the red lotus!
The magma hound pounced and swallowed the demon's corpse whole, leaving behind only a vast expanse of flowing magma and flames.
Araki Ichito pulled out the spearhead and threw it into the lava. The flickering firelight illuminated his face, revealing an almost ruthless seriousness.
He stood up and stood still, watching the flames burn silently, his scarlet eyes reflected in them, speechless for a long time.
The Golden Roc General, the Demon-Slaying Great Sage—Xiao, is dead!
