Upon hearing his younger brother's call, the Eso's purple eyes looked at his pale face, which was streaked with blood and tears, and he softly comforted him.
"It's alright, Kechizu, we'll win!"
"Really, Onii-chan?"
Listening to their conversation, Mahito glanced at them but didn't say anything more, instead turning his gaze to the beach.
Yuji Itadori was seen holding a knife in both hands.
The pitch-black Demon Power surged forth, and with a slash at the feet, the immense Demon Power instantly soared into the sky, like a volcanic eruption.
What they gained was by drowning themselves.
This means that all nearby fish -Shikigami are annihilated, and the guaranteed hit effect is temporarily suppressed.
Just as Dagon was waiting for the smoke to dissipate.
Suddenly, several jet-black crescent-shaped slashes emerged from the dark smoke!
It tore apart the Shikigami along the way and headed straight for Dagon and the others.
The jet-black slash tore through the waves.
Seeing this Dagon and the others immediately dodged, trying to avoid the attack and using their Shikigami to temporarily withstand the speed of the attack.
Then the main body leaped into the air.
A pair of bat wings on its waist propelled it into the sky, leaping into the air to look down at the dissipating smoke on the coast.
And in the smoke.
A figure also appeared.
That was none other than Yuji Itadori. He held his sword with both hands in a charging stance, and the flames burning on the blades were like a bright lamp illuminating the dark night sky!
"Dance of the Fire God: Ultimate Technique - Purgatory Dragon!"
The flames erupting from the twin blades formed a giant dragon that enveloped them.
The moment he stepped on the ground, the sand beneath his feet burst forth, and Yuji Itadori transformed into a blazing dragon.
It attacked the Mahito above the sea level.
"You're coming to me first? Yuji Itadori!" Seeing Mahito, Masato didn't dare to be careless and immediately released the Transfigured Human he had prepared in advance.
At the same time, it changed its body shape, its arms transforming into a pair of wings, as if it wanted to take flight.
Meanwhile, the Dagon above released its Shikigami to try and stop them, but the effect was minimal, and Dagon could only offer a warning.
"Get out of the way, Mahito!"
Upon hearing this, the Mahito would respond with a smile.
"No problem, don't worry."
The two paid no attention to their Eso and the Kechizu on their backs.
Until Yuji Itadori gets through the obstacle.
Upon seeing the Mahito already halfway up in the air, it was clear that they could no longer continue the pursuit, leaving only the two Eso in front of them.
But just as he was about to kill the two men...
Asuramaru's reminder echoed in her mind, "Wait a minute, I felt something was off earlier. These two guys seem to be your half-brothers."
Upon hearing this, Yuji Itadori was completely stunned.
What does "half-brothers" mean? I just don't understand...
But in his sight, the strangely-looking Kechizu was already trembling with fear at the scene before him, "Onii-chan..."
Without a second thought, the Eso beside him immediately stepped in front of his younger brother, unleashing the blood wings on his back to shield him from the attack!
But the expected blade did not come.
Although Yuji Itadori was still confused about the situation, he ultimately changed the direction of his attack, making a second change of direction.
"Head Dance!"
The pressure of turning caused him to bleed from his mouth and nose, but the power and speed were also increased exponentially.
Demon Power emerged beneath his feet as he stomped on the ground.
The body wielding two swords shot out instantly, also soaring straight into the sky.
But this time the target is Dagon!
"Am I the target?!"
Chapter 148 The Transformation of Mahito!
Facing the oncoming fiery dragon, Dagon flapped its wings and swiftly dodged while raising its right hand to release its Shikigami.
"The ocean is the source of all things, and my Cursed Technique, the Death Swarm,' is Limitless stream of Shikigami that you can never touch!"
The words were finished.
The water mist below burst open.
From within surged forth countless fish -Shikigami!
The moment its figure vanished, it instantly appeared beside Yuji Itadori, but it was utterly powerless to stop the dragon even for a moment!
The Demon Power gathered beneath his feet, acting as a springboard, propelling him swiftly through the air.
Seeing this, Dagon watched as Yuji Itadori drew ever closer and immediately activated the Cursed Technique again, causing the flesh and blood in his abdomen to contract.
Two unique fish -Shikigami emerged from it, diving directly from the sky into the seabed, and then reappeared.
Its size has increased several times over!
The Shikigami's ten-meter-long fish head opened its blood-red maw, and one of the Shikigami even leaped onto the path that Yuji Itadori bound to take.
They swallowed the incoming flames and the giant dragon whole!
Dagon followed closely behind, looking over with his two yellow vertical pupils, and said coldly, "Hmph! Your flames are utterly insignificant in the face of the ocean!"
Compared to it.
The two Eso below were still somewhat dazed from the life-or-death crisis they had just faced, but when the wicked smile came to its senses...
It was almost certain that that last strike could have easily killed both of them, so why didn't he make a move?
They were already so close, one strike would have ended their lives, why did they give up? And what was the meaning of the boy's final expression inside the dragon's mouth?!
It couldn't understand it.
He was awakened by the Kechizu beside him.
"Onii-chan, Onii-chan..."
Upon hearing this, the wicked smile finally stopped thinking and focused on the present moment.
And when he turned his head to look...
What they saw was a giant dragon piercing through the belly of a fish, but its course changed once again, instead of attacking Dagon, it became Mahito soaring in the air!
The pressure from the second turn caused Yuji Itadori to bleed uncontrollably from all seven orifices, but his speed and power were increased several times over!
This time, the speed.
Mahito has no chance to dodge!
By the time it noticed Yuji Itadori, the fiery dragon had already devoured him, and all that awaited it amidst the flames was Yuji Itadori's blade!
"Go to hell, Mahito!!!"
In an instant.
He slashed down with both swords.
The two figures intersected, and then Yuji Itadori, supported by the Demon Power beneath his feet, floated in the air.
The Mahito person behind him was severed in two, cut in half at the waist, and fell helplessly into the ocean current below.
Asuramaru also offered a fitting reminder.
"That guy isn't dead yet."
"Thanks for reminding me!"
Upon hearing this, Yuji Itadori gathered his strength in his sword, ready to unleash Getsuga Tensho to press his advantage!
"Mahito!"
But the Dagon, not far away, couldn't help but shout out anxiously, but received no response and had no time to grieve for its departure.
He immediately activated the Cursed Technique.
On the water's surface, countless fish -Shikigami emerged from all directions, simultaneously attacking Yuji Itadori, who was positioned at the center.
But Yuji Itadori remained completely unmoved.
Instead, he finished gathering his strength with both hands.
"Getsuga Tensho!"
It unleashed a powerful, crescent-shaped, jet-black slash downwards, reaching a length of over ten meters, before disappearing straight into the seabed.
However, it reveals its own weaknesses.
He was also captured by Dagon, and a large number of Shikigami swarmed forward instantly, frantically devouring Yuji Itadori's body.
Even though he immediately released his Demon Power to drive away the surrounding Shikigami, large chunks of his flesh had already been devoured, and the flesh on his left forearm had been eaten away to expose the bare white bones!
Despite this trauma, Yuji Itadori showed no emotion, but instead asked in his mind, "Asuramaru, is Mahito dead?"
"No."
Asuramaru immediately answered this question.
In the deep sea, where it is difficult to see with the naked eye, the Mahito body that was broken in two was reunited with the current.
"That was close! Luckily, I severed my body before the strike hit, but even so, that one strike still severed 30% of my soul!"
That crescent-shaped slash also eroded one-tenth of my soul... but it also made me truly and clearly perceive the shape of my own soul!
He placed his hands on his forehead.
"Idle Transfiguration!"
Its own flesh and blood instantly swelled up, proliferating in large quantities like a mass of rotten flesh, but the next moment...
It was as if nothing had ever happened.
The original Mahito has now completely transformed and has been truly born into this world!
Its body was now covered by a layer of gray flesh armor, and two sharp blades grew from its arms.
A long, slender tail has appeared on its back.
"Instant Spirit Body of Distorted Killing!"
Feeling the power at this moment, the Mahito smiled wickedly and leaped out of the deep sea, standing on the surface of the water.
It is Yuji Itadori, still as imposing as ever!
Meanwhile, the Dagon that was releasing its Shikigami saw the Mahito return and asked excitedly, "How are you feeling now, Mahito?!"
Upon hearing this, the Mahito laughed heartily, looking up at the sky.
"I've never felt this good!"
But as it laughed, it nodded slightly in the direction of Yuji Itadori, and said with a wicked smile, "It was your strike that made me see the true nature of my soul. I thank you!"
But only by killing you can I truly be born into this world!
The words had barely left his mouth.
This time, Mahito chose to charge directly, running straight towards the water with his feet on the surface, the blade at his elbow pointing towards the location of Yuji Itadori.
It shot out in an instant.
Fortunately, Yuji Itadori was prepared, "Dance of the Fire God - Sunlit Flower Thrust!"
He strode forward across the water, the blade in his hand bursting with blazing flames. Holding the Azakana, he thrust it forward with a fierce thrust, several fiery halos erupting from the blade and encircling his body!
