"Hahaha!"
Hearing Uzui Tengen's wild laughter, Kamihara Tetsuya's heart sank. That was too fast.
Score!
Sound Pillar, Uzui Tengen's unique combat calculation formula involves studying and judging the rhythm of an enemy's attack movements, converting them into a melody, and thus understanding the opponent's attack habits and blind spots.
Like adding chords to a song, as long as one attacks the gaps in the melody, one can hit the enemy.
Once Uzui Tengen completes his score, he will gain temporary strength to directly contend with Upper Moon Six, Gyuutarou.
The drawback is that it requires observing the enemy during intense combat, and the analysis takes a certain amount of time.
Kamihara Tetsuya thought it would take Uzui Tengen at least another half an hour to complete his score. He had underestimated him too much.
Actually, Uzui Tengen was even more surprised.
Fighting an ordinary Lower Moon, he only needed three to five minutes to complete his score.
Because Yasuo's methods were endless, it dragged on until now, and he finally completed his score.
Bang!
No sooner said than done, Uzui Tengen darted out, his footsteps as loud as thunder.
"Fifth Form: String Performance!"
Uzui Tengen swung his spinning nichirin blade at Kamihara Tetsuya, moving faster and at more tricky angles.
He released gunpowder balls from his fingers, and the strong wind created by his swinging nichirin blade precisely blew the gunpowder balls around Kamihara Tetsuya, surrounding him without leaving any gaps.
Kamihara Tetsuya's expression changed. His Sharingan in his eye sockets moved rapidly, taking in the surrounding situation.
"Thunder Breathing, Sixth Form: Electric Rumble and Flash!"
Kamihara Tetsuya quickly reacted, blood-colored lightning erupting from his body as he swung his nichirin blade, unleashing countless lightning slashes.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sharp nichirin blade slashes collided head-on, the intensity far exceeding the previous battle.
Explosions were continuous, and the gunpowder balls were deflected, blasting out one deep pit after another on the ground.
"I've seen through all your moves!"
Everything in Uzui Tengen's eyes disappeared; whether it was the large fire on Purple Wisteria Mountain or Yasuo in front of him, only the appearing musical notes remained in his eyes.
"One! Two! Three!"
Uzui Tengen swung his nichirin blade, the slash tearing through the void. Its strange angle directly targeted a gap Kamihara Tetsuya hadn't even noticed, instantly making him feel a fatal danger.
Kamihara Tetsuya raised his nichirin blade to block. The moment of contact, the heavy force almost sent him flying.
Immediately after, another nichirin blade slash came.
Kamihara Tetsuya's expression darkened. What a fast slash; he couldn't react. Even the Sharingan's powerful dynamic vision was within the opponent's calculations.
However, he still had the protection of his shadow!
"Muda Muda Muda Muda!"
Uzui Tengen laughed wildly, his twin nichirin blades creating countless afterimages. The sharp nichirin blade slashes instantly tore through the shadow wolf on Kamihara Tetsuya's body, revealing his true form inside.
Bang!
Kamihara Tetsuya instantly sustained countless injuries on his body, and even his left hand was severed, sending him flying.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Kamihara Tetsuya's remaining right hand raised his nichirin blade to block, his body being continuously pushed back.
Uzui Tengen's twin nichirin blades heavily struck the nichirin blade, each slash growing more terrifying in strength.
Crack!
Kamihara Tetsuya keenly heard a slight sound. He looked down and saw a crack appearing on the nichirin blade in his hand, gradually spreading across the entire blade.
"For a nichirin blade to be used by a demon like you, it's a disgrace!" Uzui Tengen laughed loudly, raising his twin nichirin blades to unleash his most ferocious slash.
Bang!
The two clashed head-on. Finally, facing Uzui Tengen's brutal slash, the nichirin blade in Kamihara Tetsuya's hand could no longer withstand it and broke into pieces.
Uzui Tengen pressed his advantage, following up with an iron mountain strike, heavily impacting Kamihara Tetsuya's chest.
Boom!
Kamihara Tetsuya's body flew backward at an extremely high speed, continuously crashing into seven or eight large trees that were being burned by the raging fire, and landed deep within the sea of fire.
His body was immediately engulfed by the raging flames, and the scorching sensation rushed straight to his brain. Kamihara Tetsuya was in unbearable pain.
"Pfft!"
Kamihara Tetsuya spat out a large mouthful of blood. His chest felt as if it were clogged with a suffocating feeling, extremely uncomfortable.
Uzui Tengen's fierce impact had almost shattered his ribs and internal organs, turning his insides into a mess.
Outside, Uzui Tengen was eyeing him like a tiger. If he didn't want to die, he had to pull himself together.
Thunder Breathing, Blood Demon Art, and Sharingan had all been calculated into Uzui Tengen's score.
In other words, if he continued to use these abilities to fight Uzui Tengen, he would only be beaten soundly.
He needed a new ability to break Uzui Tengen's score.
There were two choices.
Expose Flame Breathing, or…
Kamihara Tetsuya secretly thought, "Submit mission!"
The mission has been successfully submitted. Congratulations to the host for completing the mission "Destroy the Final Selection." The host's persistence time was eight hours, twelve minutes, and seven seconds…
"Extract ability!"
Kamihara Tetsuya had no time to listen to its nonsense.
Whoosh!
The starry sky descended, countless stars emitting dazzling light, and the illusion of ability extraction appeared in Kamihara Tetsuya's eyes. A star fell into his body.
Ability extraction completed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining "Armament Haki."
Armament Haki: One of the three types of Haki from the Pirate World. It can increase one's defense and attack power, and can also be imbued into weapons. It can be trained to the highest level, allowing one to shatter a city with a single punch!
The system panel popped up again.
Kamihara Tetsuya quickly scanned it, then grinned, a hint of joy appearing on his face. Not bad, Armament Haki that can directly increase combat power.
In the Pirate World, if this thing was cultivated to the extreme, one punch could blow up an island.
"I don't need you anymore." Kamihara Tetsuya casually discarded Muichiro Tokito's nichirin blade that he had picked up.
On the outskirts of the sea of fire, Uzui Tengen exhaled a breath of stale air, his cold gaze fixed on the depths of the raging fire. "You'd better just die like that!"
Having fought until now, Uzui Tengen's exhaustion was also very severe.
Uzui Tengen had never encountered an Upper Moon before. Yasuo in front of him was the strongest demon he had ever encountered to date.
Abnormal recovery ability, complex and ever-changing Blood Demon Art, and even the Demon Slayer Corps' Breathing Technique.
Uzui Tengen's hopes were destined to be dashed.
A blood moon appeared, and a figure as red as blood walked out from the depths of the sea of fire. Against the backdrop of the raging flames, he looked like an ancient fire god descending upon the world.
Seeing Yasuo completely unharmed, and even his severed left hand recovered, Uzui Tengen cursed inwardly, thinking, "This is too abnormal."
Is this guy's stamina endless?
One should know that before his great battle with him, Yasuo had already fought a battle with Muichiro Tokito, whose strength was close to a Pillar.
Soul Manipulation: Divine Machine Myriad Changes!
Armament Haki: Elementary!
Kamihara Tetsuya's hands transformed, turning into two sharp blades. Subsequently, the silver blades were dyed a dark black color, emitting an incomparably sharp, cold glint.
"This is…"
Uzui Tengen frowned. His intuition told him that something was wrong, very wrong!
