Barn chuckled, but the hazy silhouettes of those ghosts and gods appeared behind him once more...
"Your aura's gotten stronger. Not bad. But can you really kill me?"
Kaido naturally noticed the hazy figures behind Barn too. His gaze sharpened, then quickly settled again, but his enormous body vanished in an instant!
"What!"
Barn had apparently never expected Kaido's mountain-sized body to move so swiftly. Yet his Mind's Eye had never lost track of Kaido, and he turned around almost immediately!
But what he saw through his Mind's Eye was a fist closing in, and...
At this distance... I can't dodge!
"Kalla!"
Barn shouted, and a spectral blue figure behind him seemed to become a gust of wind, wrapping around him in an instant!
Bam!
Barn was sent flying backward, but Kalla absorbed most of the force behind Kaido's fist, leaving Barn without any real injury.
Barn had never been one to stand there and take a beating. The instant he was sent flying, an icy blue figure behind him wrapped around the First-Generation Onikiri in his hand!
"Saya, Extreme Ice Wave Sword!"
