After taking up his sword again, Nova slowly sheathed Muramasa, his gaze stern as he fixed his eyes on one of them.
Nova would not make the same mistake again. However, the one capable of Mind Attack was indeed the most troublesome of them all.
Therefore, Nova's next attacks would all be focused on that one person.
The other party looked at Nova and wanted to use another mental attack, but Nova had already anticipated it.
"Twin Dragon Flash..."
Nova instantly withdrew his defensive barrier and performed two consecutive Draw Sword Slashes.
This was completely different from before. Twin Dragon Flash was one of the more powerful techniques in the Flying Dragon Sword Style.
After the two Draw Sword Slashes were completed, two flying dragons suddenly appeared across the entire area, charging directly toward the man who could use mental attacks.
Yet Nova was not in a hurry to sheath Muramasa at that moment. Instead, he watched the two flying dragons as they surged forward.
This attack targeted only one person. The man capable of mental attacks could no longer remain calm, hurriedly retreating, but he was nowhere near as fast as Nova's attack.
Just as the other party was about to deploy a powerful defense, Nova instantly sheathed his sword and shouted, "Dragon's Roar Flash..."
This was entirely different from his previous attacks. The earlier ones had all been Draw Sword Slashes, but this time he sheathed his sword, using the rapid sheathing technique to unleash ultrasonic waves and disrupt his enemies.
After the sword was sheathed, the ultrasonic waves released by Dragon's Roar Flash instantly made all of them crouch down and cover their ears.
Dragon's Roar Flash was, after all, a technique close to the ultimate move of the Flying Dragon Sword Style, and Nova displayed its full power at that moment.
Once the opponent stopped defending, the two dragons instantly pierced through the man capable of mental attacks.
Although he seemed perfectly fine after being pierced, just as the others froze in shock, his entire body slowly collapsed to the ground. Not a single wound was left on him, and not even blood appeared.
"Die..."
Seeing his companion fall, Omoro could no longer restrain himself. The Silver Moon Wolf's eyes glowed blood-red, while the others also held nothing back and attacked Nova with all their might.
With every attack Omoro made, intense light shone between his wolf claws, and each strike tore several deep cracks into the ground.
If not for his spatial abilities, Nova would not have dared to confront someone like this head-on.
Moreover, the entire space was filled with countless bubbles. The moment he touched any one of them, it would trigger a chain of explosions.
In other words, the man in the red tie had used this method to restrict Nova's next moves.
The other two were not idle either. Their speed was like lightning, and every attack was powerful and fierce.
Faced with such coordination from four people, Nova could only use his spatial ability and remain there on the defensive.
But this could not go on forever. For now, he could only watch and search for a weakness among them.
Every attack they made seemed exceptionally sharp, and they were already going all out. Any mistake from Nova could have gotten him killed on the spot.
However, while his ability was active, the Nova before them was no longer his real body, but merely a Space Mirror. The real Nova had long hidden behind this section of space.
Omoro and the others continued attacking for nearly ten minutes, while Nova remained standing in the same place for nearly ten minutes.
Watching them pant for breath, each of them was now afraid. After all, they knew little about spatial Devil Fruit abilities, and in this state, their attacks were practically useless.
When using spatial techniques, Nova himself exposed a major weakness: he was in a void-like state. Others could not attack him, but at the same time, he could not attack them either. He could only maintain his original state and stand quietly in place.
But the instant they stopped, Nova suddenly moved. Demon Blade Muramasa in his hand was swiftly drawn once more.
Seeing this, Omoro immediately shouted, "Dodge..."
The others scattered instantly like startled birds, even activating Haki to defend themselves.
The crucial point was that Nova had no intention of giving them another chance. Just as one of them raised his defense, Nova was already before him. With a faint smile on his lips, he seemed to whisper into the man's ear, "Goodbye..."
Muramasa, originally bright red, was instantly coated in Haki. With Armament Haki empowering him, Nova swung the sword with his right hand while pressing down on its back with his left, slashing from above and cutting directly through the man's throat.
Although that man had coated his entire body in Armament Haki, it still proved utterly useless in the end.
This slash did not sever his head, but it made him clutch his neck uncontrollably as blood rapidly gushed out between his fingers.
The others no longer had any room for negotiation, and their attacks were completely ineffective against Nova.
"Kova, how is the search going on your end?"
Omoro shouted in anger and helplessness at his companion, who was searching for a way to break the barrier.
"Boss, none of my attacks have any effect on this barrier at all! I'm still speeding up the search!"
Kova was equally anxious, constantly testing every part around the barrier without overlooking a single spot.
Omoro felt that facing Nova this time was the most agonizing experience of his life. He could not hit his enemy, three men on his side had already been lost, and though Nova was injured as well, he at least seemed unconcerned.
Yet Omoro had not considered that even if this barrier shattered, they still would not be able to leave the Tru Kingdom.
The people outside were already standing by in full battle readiness.
Junhe stood before them, constantly using Observation Haki to sense every movement inside.
At the slightest sign of anything happening, he would lead the group in without hesitation.
Those outside had not realized what was happening within, and even the soldiers who had died in the palace had already begun to be dealt with.
Even the ground had now been cleaned spotless.
