He bent his legs slightly, gripped Shusui's hilt with both hands, leaned forward, and assumed a stance ready to attack. Then he shouted, "One Sword Style—Ashura Slash!"
As the furious roar rang out, an utterly terrifying aura erupted. Countless wisps of black mist surged from behind Moke like a tide, condensing in the blink of an eye into a gigantic Asura statue dozens of yards tall, radiating an evil presence!
At that moment, Moke fiercely swung Shusui and slashed forward. In an instant, blade light flashed as though it would tear the entire space apart! On the other side, Kaido refused to be outdone, swinging his massive spiked club to meet the attack with overwhelming force.
The two powerful forces collided with a heaven-shaking boom, distorting the surrounding air. Yet this fierce battle was far from over.
Almost at the same time, intense sounds of combat came from the sky. King and Shiryu were engaged in a breathtaking duel!
Shiryu flashed forward, charging toward the airborne King like lightning. Raiu was drawn from its sheath in an instant, and accompanied by dazzling lightning, it slashed straight at King.
Faced with such a fierce attack, King showed no fear. He gave a low cry, "Imperial Flame!" Flames immediately blazed across his body, and with the mysterious fire within him, he conjured a scorching giant fireball out of thin air and hurled it at Shiryu.
It had to be said that King, as a top-tier Vice Emperor-level powerhouse, possessed unfathomable strength.
Whether in attack power or reaction speed, he was first-rate. After blocking Shiryu's attack, he immediately made a sharp one-hundred-eighty-degree turn in midair and pounced downward like a savage beast, claws bared, toward Shiryu below.
Shiryu clenched both hands around his lightning-wreathed weapon and thrust it forward with all his strength.
