VSXANXUS lay on the ground, struggling to raise his only movable arm. He still wanted to shoot Akasaka.
Akasaka sighed and gently lowered Mahiru from his back, laying her safely on the ground.
"Wait here a moment. I'll take care of a little nuisance."
Mahiru nodded obediently. "Mm."
Then, with a whoosh, Akasaka vanished.
It was Soru, one of the Six Powers.
Before VSXANXUS could react, Akasaka appeared in front of him and kicked him in the stomach, launching him into the air.
It was Rankyaku, another of the Six Powers.
Bang!
VSXANXUS crashed into the ruins.
Afraid he might get back up and cause more trouble, Akasaka used Soru again to flash in front of him, then struck with Conqueror's Haki Infusion—Thunder Bagua!
Akasaka had no spiked club, so he used his arm instead.
He swung it like a club and brought it down on VSXANXUS.
The move looked a little like the Raikage's Rayleigh's Hot Knife.
Black-and-red Conqueror's Haki crackled like lightning around his arm as it slammed squarely into VSXANXUS's face.
VSXANXUS spat blood. Several teeth flew out, and his face caved in.
His eyes rolled back, showing only white, and he lost consciousness.
Akasaka smashed VSXANXUS into the ground.
The earth shook violently, and an enormous crater opened up.
VSXANXUS fell into its bottomless depths. Whether he lived or died was anyone's guess.
Akasaka quickly checked with Observation Haki and found that he was still alive.
Barely...
Akasaka dusted off his hands, returned to Mahiru, and carried his wife on his back again, ready to leave.
He had beaten VSXANXUS so badly that he would need at least half a year to recover...
At least VSXANXUS would not bother them during those six months.
Superbi Squalo, Mammon, Lussuria, and the rest of VSXANXUS's subordinates hardly dared
