No...
The air in the Mirror World is also surging!
A powerful shockwave spreads out instantly, centered on Master Ancient One, crashing into Uehara Naraku with massive force!
Uehara Naraku punches the air!
The air instantly begins to crack under this punch!
The entire Mirror World shivers under this punch, as an even stronger shockwave sweeps toward Master Ancient One!
"This power..."
Master Ancient One's expression becomes even more tense, her hands quickly forming Hand Seals, palm slapping in front of her, a prismatic space barrier appears in front of her!
This punch from Uehara Naraku is enough to crack all of America!
Even Master Ancient One's space barrier defense is futile!
Crack...
Just as expected...
The space barrier shield shatters instantly!
Master Ancient One only needs that brief moment; her palms move again, forming a same hand gesture, a heavier prismatic space barrier finally blocks the remnants of the punch...
In the past, when did Master Ancient One ever encounter an enemy like Uehara Naraku?
This guy alone, with his powerful physical energy, can fight a Supreme Mage who has pushed spiritual energy to the limit!
"You blocked the first punch well..."
Uehara Naraku's laughter quietly reaches Master Ancient One's ears: "So, what will you use to block the second punch?"
Crack...
The heavier layer of the space barrier in front of Master Ancient One shatters abruptly!
Uehara Naraku's figure arrogantly bursts through the fragments of the space barrier, rushing aggressively toward Master Ancient One!
"So fast..."
Master Ancient One's arm moves instantly, her body suddenly turning into numerous afterimages disappearing from the spot, her fingers never stopping even as she escapes Uehara Naraku's close combat!
A Gate of Space quietly appears beneath her feet!
This is also a common tactic used by mages... Through flexible use of the Gate of Space, most people can be toyed with!
"Black Hole Annihilation."
Uehara Naraku's hand spreads open, aiming at the Gate of Space beneath Master Ancient One's feet, immediately detecting her intention, cutting off Master Ancient One's thought.
In the next moment.
A jet-black light shoots out from Uehara Naraku's palm, instantly annihilating the Gate of Space beneath Master Ancient One's feet!
"Trouble..."
Master Ancient One's expression becomes more grim!
Her body quietly transforms into numerous afterimages!
It's only through such high-speed movement, almost like a clone form, that she can avoid Uehara Naraku's close combat attacks. The problem is this guy isn't just good at brawling!
Accompanied by the formation of afterimages...
Endless clones of Master Ancient One appear in the sky!
Compared to the Ninja World's Shadow Clone Jutsu, it's simply inadequate!
"Flames, burn."
Uehara Naraku's palm rises again, scorching flames instantly engulf all of Master Ancient One's clones!
Uehara Naraku's figure vanishes from the spot, using the flames as cover, slapping Master Ancient One's shoulder with his palm!
Bang!
A soul body is slapped out!
Master Ancient One's soul is directly slapped out by Uehara Naraku!
At this moment, Master Ancient One vaguely feels the world becoming absurd; she never thought that someone would use her own trick this way!
No...
They are different...
This guy, Uehara Naraku, can slap out her soul only because he possesses an extremely terrifying spiritual power, using brute force to knock out a person's soul!
The two individuals engage in a spiritual energy duel once more!
Flames are incinerating everything in the air!
The ocean waves, manipulated by Master Ancient One, sweep over, extinguishing the flames!
Scorching steam begins to spread throughout the Mirror World!
As the future Avenger Warriors leave this place, the entire Mirror World becomes the battlefield for Uehara Naraku and Master Ancient One!
"Wind Release."
Uehara Naraku raises his hand, creating a whirlwind, instantly blowing away the steam in the Mirror World, his palm swiftly aiming at Ancient One!
"Hadou No.90, Kurohitsugi!"
A square pillar-like structure imprisons Master Ancient One's soul!
The power that Uehara Naraku possesses is enough to deal with Master Ancient One's soul form; during their soul-level duel, Uehara Naraku even slightly dominates!
Accumulated over thousands of years through the Bleach World, and combined with the spiritual power of the entire Bleach World, it is enough to make Uehara Naraku's soul overwhelmingly intimidating!
Bang!
Kurohitsugi is shattered by a slap from Master Ancient One!
The Supreme Mage's gaze subtly changes to a more complex expression.
"Physical body..."
"Soul..."
"Element..."
Master Ancient One counts Uehara Naraku's abilities little by little.
This guy is truly all-around and without weaknesses...
In this battle, Master Ancient One did not use common magic powers of a Supreme Mage, because she knows they would be futile and only waste energy...
"Forget it, let's stop here..."
Just as Master Ancient One continues to ponder, Uehara Naraku suddenly interrupts the fight: "There was a bit of a mishap, the outside war is almost over..."
The New York battle had an issue!
It is the thing Uehara Naraku is most worried about.
Because the New York battle is the origin of his rise as a superpower user in S.H.I.E.L.D., it's also where he begins to act as Akatsuki, making the whole Earth accept Akatsuki's existence.
"Hmm?"
Master Ancient One's expression shows some confusion, her eyes gradually glowing as she uses her magic power to observe the situation outside.
The New York battle did indeed have a problem.
No, it should be said the Chitauri had a problem.
With the Akatsuki joining the battlefield, even though these people restrain their powers, they still inevitably launch a massacre against the invading Chitauri...
The Chitauri mothership...
Accidentally hit by a blue Cero.
All the Chitauri invading Earth seem disconnected, losing their nerve network they've entirely lost their lives...
The war...
Ended so abruptly.
No, it should be said that just one war ended.
"I must go clean up the mess."
Uehara Naraku raises a hand, releasing gravitational force to pull up Master Ancient One's soul!
Uehara Naraku pulls Master Ancient One's soul with one hand, her body with the other, combining them into one, this feeling becomes increasingly bizarre for Master Ancient One...
How did it come to this for her?
Wasn't she the one who used to project people's souls into reality?
"I must be leaving."
Uehara Naraku raises his palm, slapping the space barrier of the Mirror World with force. The space barrier instantly shatters before Uehara Naraku: "I hope you consider joining Akatsuki..."
A passage opens directly!
Breaking open the space barrier through brute force, seems more impressive compared to this world's mages using magic powers to open a Gate of Space!
One relies on sheer strength...
One can only rely on magic for cleverness...
After Uehara Naraku walks through the space passage, he gradually turns back, watching the space barrier close behind him.
Uehara Naraku and Master Ancient One glance through the increasingly narrow space passage, both wearing distinct expressions, their thoughts diverging.
Uehara Naraku waves his hand to bid farewell to Master Ancient One, his smile grows more radiant: "Even if you only have your soul left, you can't escape; death is never the end..."
Moreover...
Even if the future Master Ancient One dies...
Uehara Naraku can directly seize her soul...
Thus, another reason for Uehara Naraku ending this battle is because he sensed the strength of Master Ancient One's soul power... And of course, the most crucial factor is...
Someone has already returned the Time Gem.
Time is indeed fickle.
"Such a busy life..."
As for those future Avengers, they might have borrowed the Time Gem for a long time; it's just that the person returning the Time Gem is arriving at the next point in time.
"Let's first resolve the Tesseract..."
Uehara Naraku slowly lifts his head, looking at the space energy passage where the Tesseract is still operating, his figure instantly vanishing from the rooftop of the New York Temple.
"And then the Time Gem and Mind Gem..."
