Bang!
More than half of Ulquiorra's body was shattered, and his remains were blown away by the aftermath.
On the other side, Grimmjow, who was a step slower, had his pupils contract, and he immediately slammed on the brakes, preparing to pull away.
However, at the same time, Tatsuma's gaze fell on him, and he punched through the air.
Boom!
Another roaring sound echoed, and the terrifying wind pressure transformed into a fierce tiger that engulfed Grimmjow. Without any room to resist, Grimmjow was smashed into the ground by this blow.
"What the hell!"
Grimmjow spat out a mouthful of blood, a look of disbelief on his face.
After consuming Ophis's Snake, his strength had increased by ten times compared to before. Coupled with the amplification of Resurreccion, he could now even fight a Satan head-on.
But why was he unable to even get close to Tatsuma with such powerful strength?
Looking at the lightning falling towards him, Grimmjow rolled away to dodge. After that, he raised his finger towards the sky, and a surging Reiatsu continuously gathered.
"If you have the guts, take this hit and see!"
A roaring sound echoed, and Gran Rey Cero pierced through the sea of lightning and went straight towards Tatsuma.
At the same time, Ulquiorra, who had recovered through High-Speed Regeneration, appeared in the sky. After activating Segunda Etapa and further expanding his aura, he also fired a Gran Rey Cero.
"A little interesting."
Looking at the two Ceros, one blue and one black, Tatsuma drew Gram and swung it. Like a hot knife cutting through butter, the Ceros were easily cut in half.
After that, Tatsuma did not counterattack, but instead looked up at the sky.
"Hello. Red Dragon Emperor, long time no see."
Walburga walked out from the Teleportation Magic Formation and immediately entered her Balance Breaker state.
Countless purple flames emerged from around her, gathering in the sky to form an Orochi. However, unlike when they last met, this time the Orochi was much larger.
By just a rough estimate, it was over a thousand meters tall, covering the sky and sun like a giant beast of the apocalypse.
Tatsuma said, "Looks like you also consumed the snake."
"Of course, otherwise how would I dare to challenge a monster like you?"
Walburga chuckled lightly, raised her hand and snapped her fingers, activating Teleportation Magic.
Hundreds of Magic Formations appeared on the ground, and the newly arrived Stray Magicians and Old Satan Faction Devils once again filled the playground.
At the same time, Katerea's figure also appeared in the sky, several water dragons emerging around her.
"Red Dragon Emperor! You actually killed Creuserey, today I will make you pay for him!"
"With just you guys, you're not qualified."
Looking at the enemies surrounding him from all sides, Tatsuma laughed loudly and activated Boost.
"Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost Boost!"
A series of mechanical sounds echoed, and hundreds of Magic Formations appeared simultaneously in the sky and on the ground.
The next moment, a torrent of magic roared down.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
"Hey, what is all this mess?"
Looking at Tatsuma, who was covered by a torrent of magic, fighting one against four and suppressing a group of people, Azazel, who was originally setting up a barrier, was stunned on the spot, a look of shock on his face.
This... this isn't right, is it?
Didn't Tatsuma go out to buy time?
Looking at this situation, it seems like he wants to wipe out the enemy by himself.
"Is this the Red Dragon Emperor's true strength? It's even more exaggerated than the rumors."
Sirzechs's voice suddenly sounded. "No, this is not Tatsuma's full power yet."
Azazel was stunned when he heard this, a look of suspicion and uncertainty on his face. "Really? Sirzechs, you're not joking, are you?"
"No, I'm serious."
After staring at Tatsuma for a moment, Sirzechs looked down at the playground.
In order to consume more of Tatsuma's energy, Walburga and Katerea had been continuously summoning subordinates. However, neither of them noticed that every time they summoned new Devils and Magicians, these people would be eliminated in the first instant.
Once or twice could be said to be a coincidence, but seven or eight consecutive times?
That couldn't be a coincidence.
"Although I don't know why, Tatsuma's attention is not on Katerea and the others. He has been staring at the endless stream of Devils and Magicians appearing to consume his energy."
"Huh? Is that so?"
Azazel was stunned for a moment, looking down at the playground.
Not only him, but Michael and the others who heard the prompt also turned their gazes towards the playground.
Three minutes later, the expressions of the people in the conference room became complicated.
"He's doing this on purpose, right?"
"Mm, he's doing it on purpose."
"Why would he do that?"
"Accumulating the souls of the dead to activate a special forbidden technique?"
"Doesn't look like it."
A series of discussions sounded, and Michael and the others confirmed Sirzechs's point of view.
Tatsuma was doing it on purpose.
In high-level battles, it was normal for collateral damage to clear out some cannon fodder.
But to have the enemy's cannon fodder get instantly killed upon landing, and for it to last for several minutes?
This didn't look normal at all.
"I don't understand, what good does this do him?"
Azazel scratched his head, unable to understand the reason for Tatsuma doing this.
Michael and Gabriel exchanged glances, also having no clue.
"Speaking of which, Akatsuki's internal requests all seem to be about sealing and detaining evil spirits and wanted criminals."
Just then, Serafall seemed to recall something, her eyes widening in surprise.
"Could it be that Tatsuma is enjoying the killing?"
"This... surely not?"
Sirzechs's confidence wavered slightly.
He had been secretly observing Tatsuma and had directly interacted with him once. Aside from liking training and women, he didn't seem like that kind of pervert.
