Conqueror's Coating Dragon Claw Fist
Hughes tightened his grip on Elefseria's shoulder slightly. "I don't have time to play games with you."
"Opportunities to seal the Five Dragon Gods are rare. You've waited over a hundred years and failed countless times. Why not let me give it a try!"
"Listen to my plan, then we'll have a fight. You can check the goods, and if you think it's acceptable, proceed according to my plan!"
Provoked by Hughes, Elefseria hesitated before nodding.
Seeing this, Hughes felt a surge of joy; the first step of his plan had succeeded.
He knew that using the Five Dragon Gods to lure Elefseria was the right move. The Five Dragon Gods were Elefseria's Achilles' heel, Elefseria had taught herself Dragon Slayer Magic in order to seal these dragons that were wreaking havoc on the Guiltina Continent.
Unfortunately, his will was not enough... and he ended up being seriously injured.
Hughes pulled Elefseria closer to the shoulder and whispered in his ear.
After a moment, Elefseria, having heard Hughes' entire plan, frowned. If the being outside the gate was indeed the legendary Dragon Mother, and together with the person before her, they might truly be able to seal the Five Dragon Gods.
After a moment's thought, Elefseria reminded them again, "Never underestimate the Five Dragon Gods. Countless powerful figures have tried to conquer them over the past hundred years, but not a single one has survived!"
Hughes pointed to the door. "You can underestimate me, but you can't underestimate the person outside."
"But let's make this clear first, I'll help you deal with the Five Dragon Gods, but sealing them all won't be a quick task; it'll take at least ten years!"
"I've waited a hundred years, what's another ten?" Elefseria waved her hand dismissively.
Hughes nodded, then gave him a few more instructions to keep quiet before letting go of his hand and walking to the other side, where he and Elefseria looked at each other from a distance of five or six meters.
"Use your full strength, Irene isn't someone you can easily fool!" Hughes said in a deep voice.
"Um!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a light green mist rose from Elefseria's body, and the silver-gray dragon reappeared.
The Law Dragon opened its ferocious maw, flapped its wings and roared, causing waves of air to surge and vibrate, displaying its awe-inspiring dragon might.
A massive magic circle formed two meters away from its mouth. The Law Dragon's silver-gray body paused, and its ferocious maw emitted a chilling light.
"The Law Dragon's Roar!"
Unlike its human form, the roar of a dragon manifesting in its dragon form can only be described as terrifying, carrying a world-destroying aura. Wherever it passes, the earth melts and space shatters.
Elefseria not only possessed Dragon Slayer Magic, but was also skilled in Space Magic. The combination of Dragon Slayer Magic and Space Magic caused the dragon's roar to pierce through the void and appear before Hughes in the blink of an eye.
Hughes, who was prepared, unleashed his full power of the Three Types of Haki, which he had mastered to an advanced level. His muscles bulged, and veins stood out like dragons on his body, making him appear three centimeters taller than Irene.
Faced with the roar that was now only a hair's breadth away, the pitch-black Hughes grinned and opened his arms, letting it bombard him.
A fight isn't about one move from you to another; it's about who breaks through the defense first and who makes the first mistake.
"Boom!"
The Law Dragon's Roar landed entirely on Hughes's body. Hughes, with his chest exposed, was firmly rooted to the ground and remained motionless, like a reef on the seashore, unmoved by the strong waves and fierce winds.
As the light faded, a completely unharmed Hughes brushed his chest and beckoned to Elefseria: "Are you tickling me? My little girl could punch me harder than you!"
Faced with Hughes's mockery and provocation, Elefseria grinned, her heart unmoved. A flash of golden light appeared on the pale blue crystal on her forehead, and her dragon body vanished without a trace.
Hughes immediately focused his mind, activating his Advanced Observation Haki to its maximum, paying close attention to his surroundings.
He didn't launch an attack earlier because he was wary of Elefseria's spatial abilities. He was afraid that as soon as he attacked, Elefseria would turn around and hide in another dimension, and then strike him a few times before he could muster his strength.
The Space Magic that Elefseria possesses is far superior to the Assassination Magic of Jacob Recho.
That's terrifying magic that can transcend continents and even dimensions...
Elefseria has hired assassins to kill the Five Dragon Gods for over a hundred years, and the reason he has remained unharmed is that, apart from the Moon Dragon God Five Dragon Gods, none of the other dragons can do anything to him.
His mastery of Space Magic combined with Dragon Slayer Magic was unparalleled. The Five Dragon Gods were originally called the Six Dragon Gods, but after he defeated and sealed one of them, they were called the Five Dragon Gods.
Suddenly, his Observation Haki detected a strange tremor in the space behind his head, but Hughes remained unmoved.
With a flick of his flaming fingers, crimson flames erupted from his fingertips, transforming into a blazing spear that pierced towards the space behind his head.
Hughes' attention wasn't on the back of his head; instead, he raised his fist and slammed it down on his calm, still left side.
"Oh!"
"How do you have the Dragon Slayer Power?!"
A cry of pain echoed from the void, Elefseria's suddenly appearing dragon claw retracted back into the alternate dimension.
"Old man, you're pretty good at using feints!" Hughes sneered.
Before the laughter subsided, a silver-gray dragon tail suddenly emerged from the ground beneath Hughes' feet, slapping Hughes away. "A feint?"
I wouldn't have bothered with that a hundred years ago!
"The Law Dragon's Roar!"
"The Law Dragon's Roar!"
Elefseria's massive silver-gray dragon body emerged from the alternate dimension, its two roars sealing off Hughes's movement. It intended to take advantage of the moment Hughes was trapped, enveloping its dragon body in magic and crashing directly into him.
But remembering that Hughes possessed the Dragon Slayer Power, he switched from physical attack to magical attack, unleashing two more roars.
"Boom!"
The roars from all directions came one after another, giving Hughes no room to hide, like a torrent bombarding him relentlessly.
The aftershocks were so severe that the Magia Dragon Guild, which had stood for over a century, collapsed with a roar.
"Kid, you still have a lot to learn!" Elefseria soared through the sky, her thick laughter a sarcastic response to Hughes's earlier mockery.
Outside the guild, Irene narrowed her beautiful eyes, staring at Elefseria. Was this the Hughes had mentioned who, like her, had been transformed into a dragon by Dragonization -Dragon Slayer Magic and could not revert to human form?
But something felt off, and just as Irene was about to grab Elefseria and get to the bottom of it...
Hughes's voice came from the swirling dust. "Irene, just seal off the space and make sure he doesn't escape. Leave the rest to me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, crimson lightning appeared in the void, and an aura comparable to the dragon's might emanating from Elefseria suddenly emerged from the dust.
A flash of shock crossed Elefseria and Irene's faces as their eyes remained fixed on the dust-filled ground.
The sound of footsteps grew clearer, and suddenly, Hughes appeared above Elefseria, his five black fingers bent into a dragon claw shape, and terrifying red lightning flashed around him.
"Dragon's Breath!"
The advanced secret technique of Dragon Claw Fist in the Conqueror's Coating state concentrates all the power of Hughes ' exaggerated body, which is capable of fighting against dragons, into his fingertips.
