"Boom----"

On the ravaged ground that was riddled with holes, as Vali Lucifer fell here, there was a dull sound and smoke and dust rose high.

It was only then that the thunder that was constantly resounding in the sky gradually dissipated, and the loud explosions in the air slowly subsided, allowing everything to gradually return to calm.

Leo also slowly landed from mid-air. When it was close to the ground, it suddenly put away the five pairs of Devil Wings behind it and landed steadily on the ground.

"Cough----!"

At the same time, a cough sounded in the smoke, causing a stream of blood to be coughed out, staining the ground red.

"It's really amazing----"

Vali Lucifer's laughter also rang out.

He stood up with difficulty from the pothole where the smoke and dust had dispersed, but the smoke was still coming from his body. Only a bunch of tattered fragments of the pure white dragon-shaped armor remained embedded in various parts of his body, and even the light wings behind it became dim.

"He actually broke my Balance Breaker into pieces. Is this the power of Sacred Gear, the second strongest person in the world?"

Vali Lucifer wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Leo across from him. His eyes were not angry, but full of joy.

Obviously, the power displayed by Leo made this fighting maniac very satisfied.

"Are you satisfied? White Dragon Emperor?" Leo seemed neither sad nor happy, as if he had never experienced the fierce battle just now, and said with a half-smile, "If you are still not satisfied, do you want me to go back and call Red Dragon Emperor, and play with you?"

"That guy?" Vali Lucifer recalled the scene he saw when he arrived at the Kuoh Academy, and sneered, "I have no interest in him now."

When he arrived at the Kuoh Academy, Issei Hyoudou had already been knocked unconscious by Kokabiel.

Therefore, although he knew that it was his old enemy, Vali Lucifer could not help but feel disappointed in him and could not arouse any fighting spirit against him.

In his opinion, someone who cannot defeat even a character of Kokabiel's caliber is not qualified to be called his old enemy.

Therefore, Vali Lucifer has no interest in the current Issei Hyoudou.

Instead, Leo and Vali Lucifer are becoming more and more interested in him.

"I am only interested in strong people, and you have this qualification."

Vali Lucifer said this.

In this regard, Leo has only one thought.

"As expected, he is the host chosen by Tianlong. His warlike heart is more like that of a dragon than anyone else."

Leo who said this obviously didn't want to continue fighting Vali Lucifer.

"It's not that I'm not interested in you, but let's stop here for today." Leo glanced at the surrounding area, which was almost reduced to ruins and scorched earth, and said, "If the fight continues, the impact will be too great."

Although the battle was taking place outside the town, the large amount of movement gave Leo reason to believe that all forces had noticed this place and began to rush here.

He didn't want to be watched by a group of guys hiding in the dark.

So, he was ready to stop.

Originally, he came here just to meet Vali Lucifer and see what White Dragon Emperor, the strongest in history, was like and how capable he was.

Now, he has a rough idea of Vali Lucifer's strength, and he doesn't want to continue fighting.

However, Leo wanted to stop, but Vali Lucifer was not very willing to agree.

"I haven't even seen your Balance Breaker yet, how could it end like this?"

The fighting spirit burning in Vali Lucifer's eyes has not weakened at all, but has become more vigorous and powerful.

If he is willing to give up even though he knows that his opponent still has stronger power that he has not yet shown, then he is not Vali Lucifer·Lucifer.

"Do you still want to fight?" Leo raised his eyebrows and said with a lack of interest, "Although it's not impossible, it's pointless, right?"

Because of the protection of the armor, Vali Lucifer avoided being seriously injured by a direct hit, but when Balance Breaker was shattered, his condition has become not very good. Even if he can fight again, he probably won't be able to show the strength of his heyday.

And even Vali Lucifer in its heyday has been reduced to what it is now, so what's the point of continuing to fight?

You know, Leo is in an unscathed state. At most, it only consumes some Demonic Power, but its consumption is definitely much smaller than Vali Lucifer.

Even if you think that Leo is constantly using Calamity Class when fighting, he actually consumes a lot of Demonic Power. In fact, his Demonic Power is still abundant. Even when he stops to talk to Vali Lucifer like now, his Demonic Power is constantly recovering quickly.

This is also a benefit that you only have after becoming Perfect Devil. Whether it is physical strength or Demonic Power, the recovery speed is amazingly fast. If you are injured, you will recover very quickly, at least not slower than being treated by a second- or third-rate therapist.

Leo is already Special-Class Devil of Ten-Winged Class, which is one level higher than Vali Lucifer of Eight-Winged. This means that his Demonic Power is also much stronger than Vali Lucifer.

Under such circumstances, even if Leo uses "Zenith Tempest" wantonly, it will not cause too much loss, at least this is the state when Balance Breaker has not been activated.

Although Vali Lucifer's Demonic Power is also very large, he used Balance Breaker as soon as he came up, and also outputted Demonic Power to use the "Divine Dividing" ability as he did just now. In this way, his consumption is definitely much greater than that of Leo.

One side is unscathed, Demonic Power and stamina are still very full, but one side is already injured, Demonic Power has lost a lot of energy, and his stamina is also overdrawn. No matter how you look at it, there is no need to continue fighting.

Vali Lucifer naturally knows this too.

Just----

"I still have a stronger power that I haven't used yet."

Vali Lucifer's words made Leo's heart skip a beat.

Others may not know what Vali Lucifer refers to, but Leo, who is familiar with the original work, knows it very well.

Generally speaking, the ultimate of Sacred Gear is Balance Breaker. There is no stronger field than Balance Breaker.

However, there are a very small number of Sacred Gear that are able to release stronger power due to special reasons.

This extremely small number of Sacred Gear is usually made by sealing the power or soul of some kind of monster inside, like "Boosted Gear" and "Divine Dividing".

Because the core of this type of Sacred Gear is the soul of these monsters, if the seals on them are lifted, the power of these monsters can be Infinity controlled, allowing their former power to be reproduced in the holder.

It can temporarily and forcibly release Sacred Gear's control over the internal sealed objects and liberate the sealed power. This is the unique power of this type of Sacred Gear.

People call this power - "hegemony".

If the monster sealed in Sacred Gear is a monster, then the ability is to dominate the beast.

If the dragon is sealed in Sacred Gear, then the ability is Juggernaut Drive.

The former depends on how powerful the sealed monster was during its lifetime. The more powerful the sealed monster was during its lifetime, the more powerful the Sacred Gear holder will be after the seal is released.

The latter is usually stronger than the former, especially "Boosted Gear" and "Divine Dividing|Longinus", because they seal the soul of a heavenly dragon that can rival gods. Once used, they can temporarily gain power that rivals gods.

Of course, such a powerful force cannot be used without risks.

Whether it is a domineering beast or Juggernaut Drive, the stronger the power gained after releasing the seal, the higher the risk. It will cause an extremely serious load on the user, and may even significantly reduce the lifespan of the host, causing it to lose its mind and seriously lose control, until it completely destroys the surrounding area and even itself is on the verge of Power of Destruction.

If the Issei Hyoudou mentioned earlier is completely out of control, it may come into contact with the deeper power of "Boosted Gear" and explode into terrifying strength. This refers to Juggernaut Drive.

As the host of "Divine Dividing", Vali Lucifer can naturally use Juggernaut Drive.

Moreover, unlike Issei Hyoudou, he can freely use this power for several minutes without losing control by consuming the innately huge Demonic Power.

"Although there is a risk of shortening my life, your words qualify me to use this power at any cost."

Vali Lucifer The fighting spirit in his eyes has gradually been replaced by a sense of madness.

Behind it, the light wings that had become dim suddenly lit up at this moment, and the blue jade above them bloomed with an extremely dazzling brilliance.

"I

Leo felt it almost instinctively, and a creepy feeling emerged from the bottom of his heart without any warning.

Devil's intuition was telling him that something extremely dangerous was about to appear in front of him.

"Vali Lucifer!"

Suddenly, a voice came out from the light wings behind Vali Lucifer.

Hearing this voice, Leo felt something in his heart.

"That voice----is it White Dragon Emperor?"

The White Dragon Emperor he said did not refer to Vali Lucifer, but to the Tianlong itself that was sealed in Sacred Gear.

In other words, it was the Heavenly Dragon Soul that once caused chaos on the battlefield of the ancient war, was annihilated by Three Factions's team, and was captured by God of the Bible to be made into Sacred Gear.

"Stop it, you can't control Juggernaut Drive in your current state!"

The voice of Tianlong said this and also gave Leo a wake-up call.

The original Vali Lucifer could indeed control the power of Juggernaut Drive for several minutes with its innately huge Demonic Power, but at this moment Vali Lucifer Not only was injured, but Demonic Power also suffered severe wear and tear. If he enters the state of Juggernaut Drive, he will most likely lose control and be unable to control himself at all.

"I can do it, Albion."

Vali Lucifer looked directly at Leo and replied to Tianlong Soul.

"The powerful enemy I want is right in front of me, and I haven't used all my strength yet. If I still have reservations, I can't be called White Dragon Emperor, let alone Lucifer!"

Saying that, Vali Lucifer raised a hand high, regardless of Albion's obstruction.

"I am the awakened one"

He began to sing.

That is an ominous mantra.

That was the curse word that lifted the seal.

(It will be destroyed into ashes!)

(Destroyed into ashes!)

It was as if some entity full of resentment was responding to Vali Lucifer's incantation, making a sound of hatred, which made the creepy feeling in Leo's heart become more and more intense.

"Seriously----"

Leo couldn't help but be speechless, and his eyes gradually became serious.

Even he had to raise his heart at this moment.

Although there are great risks and the possibility of losing control, it is certain that once Vali Lucifer uses Juggernaut Drive, it will be able to temporarily gain power that can rival God.

That is a power that can rival the gods!

With the same level of power, there are only transcenders like Sirzechs and Ajuka Beelzebub. Even Super Devil Class, Serafall and Grayfia Lucifuge, and even Tiamat, who is the most Strong Dragon king, are far inferior!

Even if it is only temporary, out of control, and a cursed power, it is definitely not something Leo at this stage can contend with head-on!

If he doesn't deal with it seriously, his end will definitely be miserable.

"There is nothing I can do----"

Leo took a deep breath and released all the Demonic Power.

"Boom!"

Pure white arrogance suddenly erupted from Leo's body, setting off a storm.

That is a pure white flame that is different from Vali Lucifer.

If the pure white arrogance of Vali Lucifer is as bright as a star, then the pure white arrogance of Leo is as dazzling as the sun.

The former is sacred and untainted, the latter is natural and vast.

When this pure white flame, which was even more terrifying than Vali Lucifer's Balance Breaker, erupted from Leo's body, behind him, the sixth pair of Devil Wings began to slowly appear.

Seeing this scene, Vali Lucifer's pupils shrank, and then he laughed even more happily.

"Balance Breaker"

Leo spit out this word.

"Heavenly Dragon who was robbed of everything by the principles of hegemony"

Vali Lucifer also continued to chant the ominous mantra.

The fluctuations in power that appeared on the two men had already caused the entire earth to shake.

"Buzz"

Suddenly, the space around Leo and Vali Lucifer was distorted.

"Wait! Leo!"

Leo A figure appeared next to him and held his shoulders.

"Lord Sirzechs?"

Leo's power that was about to explode stagnated, and he uttered a voice in astonishment.

The person who came was surprisingly Sirzechs.

"Stop it too! Vali Lucifer!"

A figure also appeared next to Vali Lucifer and grabbed his arm directly.

That was a man who didn't look decent, nor young, and looked rather exotic, like a foreigner.

The man is wearing an exquisite robe that is no worse than Sirzechs. His facial features are quite handsome, and he exudes a frivolous atmosphere. He looks somewhat similar to Riser Phenex, with a bad boy feel, but it is decisively different from the gangster-like Riser Phenex. At least the man in front of him will not make people feel disgusted, but has a bad man-like appeal.

"Azazel?"

Seeing this person, Vali Lucifer also stopped and made a sound of surprise.

Leo immediately looked at the other party, his eyes flickering.

Azazel, Fallen Angel's Governor General, the highest Fallen Angel of Twelve-Wing, the leader of the Fallen Angel camp who is one of Three Factions----

The person who is the most persistent, knowledgeable, and well-researched about Sacred Gear, and also has the smartest mind in the original work, finally appears.

Right in front of Leo.
