The overwhelming pressure pinned even Kawashiki down, leaving him unable to rise.
He could only watch helplessly as Shisui shot toward him.
But Kawashiki did not resign himself to his fate. With difficulty, he pulled a red fruit from his person and ate it without the slightest hesitation.
Seeing this, Shisui immediately guessed what Kawashiki intended to do. Anxiety rose within him, and even his descent quickened.
In the end, Shisui was a step faster. Before Kawashiki could transform, his long blade pierced Kawashiki's body, instantly shredding his chest.
But a dazzling white light suddenly radiated from Kawashiki, instantly enveloping them both and obscuring what was happening inside.
The glare forced Shisui to close his eyes as well.
But just then, an enormous black fist suddenly appeared and struck Shisui square in the chest.
Shisui immediately spat out a great mouthful of blood. His chest caved in, and his body flew backward high into the sky before crashing heavily to the ground not far from Kawashiki.
Shisui was in terrible condition. Not only was his aura extremely weak, but his entire body kept convulsing. Clearly, his body could no longer hold out, and he had suffered considerable backlash.
Meanwhile, a figure slowly emerged where Kawashiki stood.
His black limbs were exceptionally thick, and countless white hairs covered his body. There was a large hole in his chest, though it was slowly repairing itself.
His mouth and nose also protruded, marked with irregular black markings, and he even had a pair of horns on his head.
Although this was the first time anyone present had seen such a creature, they could all guess that this must be Kawashiki's second form.
At the sight, they all sighed inwardly:
"In the end, we still couldn't stop him from entering his second form?"
