The first trident crashed down, striking the Kusanagi Blade hard in mid-air.
As the ferocious force surged through his body, Aoi's knees buckled, and a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed into the air...
Before he could even react, the second trident came slamming down!
"HOLD ON!"
When the second weapon collided with his blade, Aoi's arms nearly gave way.
A sharp crack echoed as bones fractured. It was a struggle, but he managed to hold his ground.
Yet there was no time to catch his breath. The third trident followed instantly. This time, the impact shattered the bones in his legs.
After just three strikes, Aoi's limbs were all broken and mangled!
Seeing this, the six-armed Asura was so overjoyed he could have wept. Finally... this brat is going to die!
"Brat, what was the point of struggling? This strike takes your life!"
The sharp trident descended. If nothing changed, this would be the end of Aoi...
Everyone from the Land of Birds held their breath. Never had they desired victory so badly.
Facing a monster who wouldn't die and only grew stronger the more you hit him was an unbearable psychological strain!
Ono Shimura closed his eyes in pain. It seems miracles truly do not exist in this world...
On one side stood an eight-meter tall Asura with six arms; on the other, a three-year-old child less than a meter tall. The disparity in power was simply too vast.
Perhaps he should never have hoped from the very beginning!
But...
Shimura waited and waited, but the cheers of the enemy never came.
Confused, he slowly opened his eyes, only to see the soldiers of the Land of Birds standing frozen, mouths agape like startled ostriches...
"AGAIN!"
The familiar voice rang out. Shimura snapped his head around.
Silver scales crackling with lightning gleamed brilliantly under the sun. Pure white dragon horns emanated an indescribable, majestic aura.
Coiled around his arms were two lively and ferocious spirit serpents, their silver eyes shining with nobility and authority!
Yet right now, within those noble eyes, there was a glint of amusement. "Old man Akahi... I hope you can keep this up until I actually get serious!"
"KEEP UP MY ASS!" Akahi had completely lost his mind...
The seventh trident smashed down. Aoi didn't even flinch, standing as steady as a mountain...
The eighth trident fell. Aoi showed no sign of strain at all, and even demanded more: "Come on! Hit me harder!"
"Again? Again your sister!" Akahi finally snapped. He gritted his teeth and swung his weapons wildly.
"Asura Ninjutsu: Forest of a Hundred Tridents!"
At last, Akahi could hold back no longer and unleashed his ultimate technique...
Everyone watching understood: in a way, this meant Akahi had already lost. But right now, he was past the point of caring.
"DIE!"
Six tridents fell from the sky, multiplying instantly — one became two, two became four.
In less than a second, the entire sky was filled with countless weapons, descending like a dense, endless forest of spears.
"EXCELLENT!"
Aoi swung the Kusanagi Blade, deflecting every single trident that came near.
But even two hands are hard-pressed to fight against four, let alone hundreds of weapons!
Gradually, Aoi began to miss a few...
Slish...
One trident tore a deep, bloody gash across his calf. Blood flowed freely.
"FINALLY! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU NOW!"
Akahi was overwhelmed with emotion. Never in his life had he felt such gratitude. He could finally breathe a sigh of relief...
"The Eight Gates Formation — Gate of Pain, OPEN!"
Pale green chakra steam erupted violently from his body. Aoi's strength and speed surged several levels higher.
At this level, it didn't matter if there were hundreds of attacks — thousands wouldn't be enough to stop him!
"Oh my... you managed to force me to use a little more of my power." Aoi grinned broadly. "Don't lose heart! Keep going, and maybe... just maybe, you might actually win!"
Pfft...
Akahi was so furious and frustrated that he spat out a mouthful of old blood. Never in his entire life had he fought such an agonizing, humiliating battle!
