Chapter 607: Absolute Kill
The golden-haired muscular man descended with enormous威势, landing precisely on the energy core located at the chest of the White Bone Giant. Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s body was instantly engulfed by the surging Death Energy, the eerie green energy rushing toward him like a streak of bloody sharks, crazily closing in.
“Zila—”
The moment the Death Energy touched his skin, his flesh and blood began to decay and dissolve. Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s body swelled up, veiled in grayish-white skin that formed a gruesome armor, blocking out the surrounding, overwhelmingly dense Death Energy.
At this moment, Kazumi made her move. The girl did not activate [Soul Fury] within Takeru Kamikami again, as his body could no longer withstand the Death Energy surging from inside. Instead, under Kazumi’s exquisite manipulation, she directly molded Little Black’s body into a large pancake, stretching it to the limits to envelop Takeru Kamikami, resembling an oddly-shaped leather suit.
Sa Tō Shin’ichi paid no attention to this transformation. Deep down, he knew that opportunities were rare; he had to seize this chance with a balanced approach of hard and soft, hitting with all his might when the moment came.
Sa Tō Shin’ichi did not hesitate. He gathered all his strength into his fists, causing them to transform into iron hammers, rushing towards the energy core with the power to shatter everything.
His muscles swelled once again, violently writhing like waves. Each muscle fiber explosively unleashed amazing power. Sweat beads formed on the surface of his skin but were instantly evaporated by his internal heat, enveloping his body in a white mist.
This was Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s ultimate ability; by rapidly contracting each muscle, he accelerated the flow of blood within his body, compressing all his strength to the utmost. However, the price for this was that the overheated muscles would quickly lose internal moisture, and if he continued for too long, it would lead to his dehydration and demise.
At this moment, though, the young boy pushed those thoughts aside.
His left fist, shrouded in the green fire of Death Energy, descended like a meteor falling to the ground, striking directly at the energy core’s location. Each blow landed precision on the same spot.
The shockwaves generated by the collision of his fist against the Death Energy created turbulence all around.
“Bang bang bang bang—”
A series of crashing sounds echoed like war drums. Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s fists blurred into shadows, and the terrifying power seemed to shatter the surrounding space, forming minute cracks.
The Death Energy wrapping around the energy core was dispersed under his attack, exposing a large section of the pale, bony chest armor behind it.
“Roar—”
The sudden change occurred too quickly. It wasn’t until Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s fists collided with the chest of the White Bone Giant that White Bone came to react, an angry roar erupting once again.
The giant’s chest cavity suddenly produced a piercing sound of bones grinding together, countless sharp bone spikes protruding instantly like a shield from the surface of the chest armor.
These bone spikes were densely arranged, each glimmering with a greenish hue, forming a stark white bony barrier in front of Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s fists.
“Clang clang!”
The iron fists crashed into the bone spikes, producing a thunderous clamor of metal against bone. Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s fists dug deep into the spikes, and the skin on his knuckles was torn and bloodied by the sharp protrusions. But the battle spirit in the young boy’s eyes only intensified; the first punch was quickly followed by another.
The bone spikes in the White Bone Giant’s chest continuously multiplied, new ones coated in a viscous corrosive fluid that produced hissing sounds every time Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s fists struck.
Large charred marks appeared all over the grayish-white flesh armor created by Little Black.
“Bang bang bang bang—”
Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s onslaught showed no signs of diminishing. Each punch struck precisely on the same spot of the bony barrier. His arms were already covered in blood, yet his strikes became heavier. The defense of the White Bone Giant’s bone spikes began to crack, the outermost spikes splitting apart.
When the seventh punch landed, the bony barrier finally shattered open, creating a gap.
Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s eyes lit up with determination; he seized this fleeting opportunity. His long-prepared final punch, like a cannonball, burst through the gap and heavily struck the chest core of the White Bone Giant.
“Crack!”
With a crisp sound of shattering, the chest armor of the White Bone Giant was finally broken by the boy’s powerful fist. It revealed a hollow skeletal frame inside, where a naked man was held captive by the pale bones, connected to a White Bone Giant. The man’s eyes glowed with green flames, signifying that he had transformed into the White Bone through the Heavenly Source’s body!
“I advise you not to approach recklessly. Is it worth risking your life for two enemies of the Dark organization? He is just using you!!”
The head of White Bone suddenly lifted, speaking quickly to the golden-haired man before him, a hint of urgency creeping into its voice. With White Bone’s words still echoing, numerous sharp bone spikes erupted wildly from the giant’s interior, blocking the space between the two men firmly.
“Boom—”
Sa Tō Shin’ichi responded without uttering a word; all he delivered in reply to White Bone was a heavy, bloodied punch that slammed into the mass of bone spikes.
The young boy’s fist, wrapped in rising heat waves, crashed ferociously against the bony barrier. As bone fragments scattered, his knuckles exposed stark white bones, yet he still surged forward unyieldingly.
“Bang.”
The last layer of bone spikes shattered upon impact.
White Bone, in a panic, sat up from within the giant’s chest, the green flames wildly flickering.
He hastily raised both arms, a fierce gust of wind bursting forth from his body, the remaining wind elements of the Heavenly Source’s ability. White Bone sought to create distance between them using the force of the wind.
“Bang!”
A dark arm shot out from the abdomen, perfectly grasping White Bone by the throat. It was a portion of Little Black’s separated body, seizing White Bone at the crucial moment and offsetting the force of the gust.
No! White Bone’s terrified eyes shone, the green flames thrumming. In that fleeting moment, Sa Tō Shin’ichi’s charged stone fist had already broken through the final defense—
“Boom!”
Wrapped in steam and clouds of blood, the iron fist struck heavily against the White Bone Giant’s chest. At the moment of contact, the purple fissures on his fist fell away, seamlessly covering the ribs of White Bone’s chest.
“Boom!!”
A deep, resounding roar emanated from the chest of the White Bone Giant, and the sound was clear enough that even Kazumi, far above the city walls, could hear it.
“Heavenly Source Huang!”
In that instant, the energy within Kazumi erupted violently, and at the same time, the Heavenly Source Huang activated his ability.
In another chamber nearby, the transparent female ghost at the center suddenly opened her eyes, her previously serene expression turning immensely sinister. Opening her mouth wide, the air within the chamber grew suddenly still.
The妖女’s transparent body instantaneously glowed with a crimson light.
Her distorted face ripped open as a visible sound wave rippled from her mouth.
“Ah ah ah ah ah—”
The crystal walls of the special device immediately resonated, layering the energy of the sound waves. The runes in the corners of the chamber lit up one by one, forming a net that compressed the incoming sound waves into a delicate energy beam no thicker than a hair.
This condensed mass of Death Energy, amplified countless times, was ultimately compressed to the very end of the device.
And at that end, flickering ominously, was a purple fissure almost identical to that covering the chest of White Bone.
