The moment the words left Fang's mouth, his muscles squirmed once and then… whoosh! He vanished.
One instant, he stood beneath the blood moon, and the next, the space he occupied ruptured, the rope fibers beneath his feet shredding apart from the sheer force of his launch!
The poisonous clouds exploded in a circular shockwave, the only thing most viewers managed to see.
Meanwhile, Levi's Harmonic Spine kept up with Fang's enhanced speed… but just barely. Levi pivoted instantly while sweeping the chained staff upward to intercept. But Fang sharply changed his trajectory and swung his terrifying claws a half step deeper into Levi's blind angle.
It was as if he had calculated the precise point where Levi's defensive arc thinned for a fraction of a heartbeat… It might have worked against others, but too bad.
Ting!!
