Meanwhile, Muichiro Tokito, who had been blown away, wanted to return to the battlefield as quickly as possible.
"I was blown a long way away. I have to get back to the battlefield as soon as possible!"
Muichiro Tokito raced through the forest when he suddenly saw a huge fish with four limbs chasing a child.

Lin Guang's Nichirin Blade unleashed pale blue blades of ice in an unending flurry, instantly neutralizing Sekido's violent electric currents.
