Sukiyaki's heart trembled uncontrollably, and intense fear welled up inside him as he looked at Ares...
Fear!
Terror!
Incredulity!
·········
He couldn't understand how Ares had become so powerful!?
At that moment.
The samurai were all deeply shaken.
The weaker ninja directly lost their fighting ability.
Several daimyo and Kozuki Oden rose to their feet, staring in horror at Ares, who stood proudly above the entire field like a 'demon god.'
Shimotsuki Ushimaru's mouth twitched. "Why is Ares so powerful!?"
Shimotsuki Yasuiie's arm had gone numb. "What exactly was that move of his? Why did it have such a terrifying... shock wave!?"
The bandages on Kozuki Oden's body had torn apart, reopening his wounds as blood seeped out again. "That guy really wasn't using his full strength the first two times... The difference is actually this huge!?"
"·········"
Shimotsuki Ushimaru, the 'grandfather' of the future Zoro and a man whose appearance greatly resembled Zoro's, gritted his teeth. "Hey—you're samurai! Even if we lose, don't lose this disgracefully. Bet your lives on it and show Ares what samurai are capable of!!"
"Good—" Ugetsu Tempura said with a determined expression and a relieved smile. "We have to show Ares the spirit of the samurai, too!"
The group regrouped once more, each unleashing their strongest power and pouring all their 'Armament Haki' into their bodies.
They launched attacks at Ares one after another.
In an instant.
All kinds of dazzling slashes tore through the air from every direction, hurtling toward him.
Ares filled every inch of his skin, flesh, muscles, and bones with his Haki.
He completely transformed into a 'blood-red demon god'!
Using his hands and feet like blades, spears, swords, and halberds, he blocked the samurai's slashes one by one.
Clink, clink, clink—
Clang, clang, clang—
Every part of his body
