"Boom!!!!"
A deafening explosion rang out.
The Four-Tails' mangled remains, its chest shattered by Might Duy's punch and its head blown apart by Guy's kick,

Guy's voice was hoarse, filled with barely suppressed pain and urgency.
Dai froze for a moment.
Seeing his son's face twisted in agony, his muscles torn from forcing open the Gates too far,
