Chapter 36 - Chapter Thirty-Five: Between Resilience and Willpower

The double triple barrier trembled with the sheer power emanating from within, while the audience stood in stunned silence, audible only to the frantic beating of their own hearts.

Inside the cube, Yui Urahara embodied the very essence of resilience. Despite her injuries, she summoned every last vestige of her forest magic, transforming her bow into two sharp blades, and began to parry Dan Wataru's relentless attacks.

Yui (breathlessly): "I won't... let you... pass through me!"

But Dan was toying with her. His speed, increasing with every blink, made him seem omnipresent. With a devilish laugh, he unleashed a yellow lightning bolt that enveloped her body, completely immobilizing her.

Dan: GERD (Thunder Shock)

Yui screamed in agony, while Naofumi, despite the pain and blood covering his face and arm, continued his relentless struggle to break through the wall. Naofumi: Not yet. I won't give up. This is nothing compared to what Ivan faced that day in the dungeon.

The Horrible Moments:

Here, the fight turned into a terrifying spectacle. Dan began using Earth Magic to create tiny rock thorns that slowly pierced Yui's limbs, relentlessly torturing her both physically and mentally.

Not content with that, he let his "Thunder" energy seep into her veins, causing her to feel an excruciating pain that tore at her insides.

Yui's agonizing screams began to pierce the barrier. They were deafening screams, echoing in every corner of the grand amphitheater, making the spectators tremble with terror as they imagined what was happening to that brave girl inside.

Ritsu: Your Majesty, you must intervene immediately.

Emperor: That can't be. Look, Ivan has disappeared, and that means he's the one who will defeat Dan.

Retsu: It's true that Ivan is strong, but Dan's strength has increased tremendously.

Rindo: Ryota, what's happening with your squad member? Don't you find it strange?

Ryota: I know what you mean. Dan now possesses the power of a demon within him.

All the captains were shocked by what Ryota said.

Yahiko: This is truly insane.

Hanamiya: This means one thing; there's no going back on what he's doing, isn't there?

Nagai, the lieutenant: I never imagined something like this would happen to him.

Yui Urahara was bleeding, but she didn't give up at all, under Dan's watchful eye.

Dan: Good, good. Entertain me even more, elf girl.

Yui pumped a massive amount of her magic power and combined it into her bow, then leaped upwards, saying: Father, Ivan, everyone, this is the best I can do!

She unleashed a devastating attack of magic arrows, and to Dan's shock, the barrier shattered. Speaker: What a historic moment! Look, she's truly brilliant.

Yui was completely exhausted; her magic power had failed her.

Yui: (panting) Ivan, I did my best.

In a tremendous moment, Dan's scream echoed everywhere.

Dan: I'm losing! I'm losing! I'll die before that happens!

A terrifying and destructive demonic aura appeared simultaneously, to everyone's astonishment.

The demonic figure appeared behind Dan as Dan's eyes turned red.

Dan: Now I'll show you what true terror is.

Then he charged at her with insane speed and began attacking her repeatedly as she writhed in agony.

Naofumi leaped towards Dan.

Naofumi: Stop it, you bastard!

Dan: Mind your own business, you insect!

He then punched him hard in the stomach, inflicting severe fractures.

All the members of the Ninth Division attacked him, but to no avail; he defeated them all.

Only Noah remained, standing and trying to heal them.

Meanwhile, Dan returned to torture Yui Urahara in a horrific manner as she screamed in agony.

Afterward, he summoned the spirit of the colossal Earth Titan, seized her, and began preparing the bondage contract.

Dan was about to place the bondage mark upon her when...

In a magnificent and legendary moment, he was struck in the face with tremendous force, crashing into the arena dome to everyone's astonishment.

Speaker: What happened?! Look! There's someone carrying Yui through the dust! The Emperor smiled, saying, "Finally, we'll see you fight, Jin's heir."

Yes, it was Ivan, appearing, carrying Yui, his face serious.

Ivan: "Noah, I'll leave her in your care."

Noah: "Leave it to me."

Dan emerged from the wreckage, furious.

Dan: "So, you've appeared, you failed member of the Ninth Division."

Dan's immense aura erupted as he walked towards Ivan, and Ivan responded with a powerful fiery aura. A massive clash ensued between them, leaving everyone stunned.

But the Emperor appeared between them, halting their attacks. He said, "We'll make a change. Ivan will be Yui Urahara's replacement. Because she can't continue, one of her acquaintances is entitled to fight in her place."

Zora smiled. "That's interesting. Finally, I'll see how strong you are, boy."

Alice Frankenstein: "He's the boy who fought Elena in that dungeon."

The tournament's spokesperson: "Now, a fierce battle will take place between Dan Wataru and Yui Urahara's replacement, Ivan, a member of the Ninth Division." Let the excitement and suspense begin.
