Tessai Tsukabishi: You One-Shotted Us with Kidō, Then Told Me You Weren't Actually Good at Kidō?

"Roar!!"

With a dragon's roar, a phantom 'Divine Dragon' composed entirely of reishi soared through the heavens. Araki stood atop the Divine Dragon's head with his hands behind his back, looking down at everything below from the corner of his eye, like an emperor surveying his domain.
