Monferno disobeying orders was no small matter. In a life-or-death situation, the consequences of his mistaken judgment could very well get Ye Qing's entire team wiped out, leaving not even their bones behind!
Boom!
Just as Ye Qing had expected, the speeding Water Pulse collided with Mach Punch. Amid the violent explosion, Monferno was blasted straight back, his entire right arm trembling slightly.
