Chapter 89: An Ordinary Punch
Sensing the human's vitality rising like a blazing sun before him, Boros's pupils constricted to pinpoints. He realized what King intended to do.
Trying to launch a powerful strike while I'm regenerating...?
Normal logic would dictate immediate defense or finding a way to dodge King's [Night Guy].
But Boros was different. He was the Dominator of the Universe, a lonely powerhouse. He would never choose to dodge!
If that's how it is, then come!
With his arms destroyed, Boros unleashed his full energy. While regenerating his limbs, he gathered energy into the eye-like pattern on his chest.
Instantly, a berserk beam of blue energy erupted with unstoppable momentum. While similar in form to Genos's Incineration Cannon, its power was hundreds of times greater!
Inside the colossal spaceship, the beam of destructive blue energy collided head-on with the thousand-meter Crimson Dragon. The resulting energy storm shattered the ship's hardened interior, melting through layers of structure.
Many lower-level combatants living inside the ship were vaporized in terror and despair before they even knew what was happening, turned into cosmic dust by the energy storm.
Boros, at the center of it, saw everything clearly.
He watched as his energy beam was split in half upon collision with the red vitality dragon.
Moreover, when Boros tried to move, he found that the space around him was twisted. He couldn't move at all; he had to take this hit.
To twist space itself?! Is this your true power, King?!
Facing this kick capable of warping space, Boros felt no fear. Instead, he revealed an unprecedented smile of pure joy.
To fight such a warrior... my trip to Earth was not in vain!
In the next second, [Night Guy] landed on Boros's abdomen.
"Gah!"
Blood sprayed from all six of Boros's orifices. His giant eye bulged out, and his internal organs were mashed into paste by the kick.
The Crimson Dragon slammed into him directly. Although he tried his best to resist, his body was pushed back uncontrollably by the dragon's force.
During the struggle, Boros and King smashed through layer after layer of the spaceship's hull, eventually piercing through the entire ship and crashing onto the surface of the planet.
Finally, cracks began to appear on Boros's body, expanding rapidly. Each crack sprayed a mist of blood.
The force, violent as a tsunami destroying everything in its path, instantly reduced his powerful body to a bloody mist.
Boros's remaining half-eyeball floated in mid-air, looking at his disintegrated body in disbelief.
Such a powerful attack... I couldn't block it at all...
In that case!
The eyeball spun rapidly, instantly restoring itself into a complete, massive eye. The whites turned pitch black, and the pupil shifted to an eerie purple.
Unparalleled regeneration activated. Boros's misty remains reassembled in less than 0.1 seconds. His skin turned pink, covered in dense black markings.
Power far more terrifying than before condensed within his body, making the surrounding space tremble.
The ground beneath him shook under the immense energy. Spiderweb cracks spread, and the surface began to collapse.
[Meteoric Burst] Mode!
Boros's gaze sharpened. In this state, even as the Universe Dominator, he couldn't maintain it for long. It was like anaerobic exercise, heavily burdening his body and significantly shortening his lifespan.
But for a fight with you! I am willing to pay any price! This is the pure combat I've been seeking!!
"RAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!"
Boros turned into a pink streak of light. Crossing thousands of meters in less than 0.1 seconds, he smashed a lightning-wreathed fist forward.
King, having just delivered the Night Guy kick, showed no signs of fatigue. Facing Boros's sudden punch, he raised his arm to block.
In the next second, when King's arm collided with Boros's fist, a massive energy shockwave penetrated his body.
Hm?
The clear sound of bone cracking echoed in King's ears. After taking this punch from Boros, the bones in his forearm fractured, and the skin covering them was scorched.
It seems taking on Meteoric Burst Boros in the Seventh Gate state is a bit of a stretch. This form is stronger than my current state.
In Meteoric Burst mode, Boros far surpassed his previous speed and strength. His figure flashed continuously across the battlefield, leaving a dense web of pink trails in the void.
With every pass, a barrage of heavy punches landed on King. Even when King counterattacked, he was suppressed by even stronger force.
"What's wrong?! No strength left to resist?! I know you still have moves you haven't used! Use them now!"
Hearing Boros's demand, King slowly raised his head amidst the relentless assault. The blue steam on his body rapidly shifted to a blood-red crimson.
"Since you asked... as you wish."
Eight Inner Gates: Eighth Gate of Death — OPEN!!
Vitality powerful enough to suppress heaven and earth surged forth. King's overall physical stats skyrocketed, and the sense of danger he projected to Boros instantly peaked.
"Heh... HAHAHAHAHA! That's more like it! This is my greatest opponent! Come, King! FIGHT ME!"
Boros moved behind King at a speed invisible to the naked eye. Each of his punches carried enough force to destroy an area of several kilometers, and he threw hundreds of them in an instant.
At this moment, Boros held enough power within him to destroy the planet's surface, but instead of releasing it as a blast, he channeled it all into enhancing his physical body.
In the split second those hundred punches landed, amidst the roaring crimson vitality flames, King raised his hand and landed a plain, ordinary punch on Boros's chest.
"URGH!!"
