"Ryuuno!" Kanna chased after him to support him.
Little Shi also rushed over.
Seiji glanced at the others and left as well.
Logically speaking, he should have followed Izawa's instructions and stayed until the very end. However, it was impossible for him to watch his companions fight while he remained standing.
Even though Kanzaki was injured, he was still incredibly powerful. He managed to send Izawa flying with just a few kicks.
Then, he rapidly retreated and aimed his right hand at Seiji … no, at the people behind Seiji!
Rumble —
A thick black mist suddenly exploded and enveloped Masao Yanagi, Nobuhiko Kurosaki, and the others!
The black mist reappeared! Did Yoshihara's assistance end here!?
Screams could be heard … Seiji wanted to turn back to rescue them, but it was too late. Besides, compared to those people, he was more concerned about the safety of Little Shi and the others.
"Get close to me!"
Kanna and Izawa hurriedly ran over. Little Shi stopped her charge and turned around. Keimi also ran over with Shigure on her back.
The black fog erupted once more!
Seiji channeled his power into his right hand, forming a greyish-white barrier to defend himself.
He felt the pressure, but it was not heavy.
This meant that Kanzaki's black mist power hadn't completely recovered yet. Yoshihara's assistance was still effective! But it would probably become weaker in the future.
Just as Seiji was thinking about what to do, the black fog dissipated.
Kanzaki's entire body had turned pitch-black, and gray runes covered his entire body. Two spiraling runes that swirled with a black-red glow appeared where his eyes should be. Kanzaki's entire body gave off a powerful demonic aura … This was quite similar to Shigure Tendo's Berserk state!
So this is the Demon King transformation? Just what was going on with Shigure Tendo last week?
Seiji didn't have much time to think. The transformed Kanzaki was already rushing over at high speed!
You think you're awesome after transforming? Sorry, we have a trump card that can restrain you! Seiji activated his skill — —
Double Transcendence followed by White Calamity!
A pure white humanoid spiritual body suddenly appeared.
Izawa and the others were astonished.
Kanzaki's charge slowed down.
Seiji stepped forward as the Reaper's human form merged into his body. He rushed towards Kanzaki and raised his sword!
Bam!
Black mist erupted, and shockwaves spread out.
"You … Why …"
I don't care why!
No matter what Kanzaki wanted to say, Seiji swung his sword and attacked fiercely!!
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Every time Kanzaki blocked a sword attack, black mist would erupt from his body. Kanzaki's movements were obviously stiff.
He wanted to retreat, but Seiji held him tightly and chased him for more than a hundred meters!
He released a large amount of black mist. Seiji used the strength of his right hand to block it, and continued to slash wildly!
He counterattacked with a powerful move, but Seiji dodged it with "Bullet Time" and "Emergency Dodge" before continuing to slash wildly!
No matter what he did, Seiji chased after him and kept slashing at him.
Kanzaki never expected that he would be forced to such an extent.
Although Saito and Yuma weren't particularly strong as hosts, they were more than enough to deal with all the participants in this tournament. Even if he didn't rely on the power of his Domain, he would be able to kill everyone with just his body alone … At least, that was what he thought at first.
However, reality exceeded his expectations.
Shigure Tendo … Haruta Seiji … "Imbecile" and "trash" …
What a joke.
Kanzaki truly chuckled. He felt that this was truly amusing. And it just so happened that the two participants from the Yin Yang Master Families with the lowest evaluation were the ones who forced him to such an extent!
If this tournament had proceeded normally, what would the result have been like for these two people to fight? Kanzaki suddenly felt like he wanted to see it.
There would probably be a chance in the future.
If he got serious, it might be possible to kill these two brats. However, there was no need.
'Let's just leave it at that. I've done everything I need to do. All that's left is the details … '
Demon-slaying technique, [Doujigiri]!!!
Seiji took the perfect opportunity to use his strongest martial arts technique.
There was a flash of his sword, and the pitch-black figure was decapitated with a sound as soft as falling snow!
The black mist suddenly exploded. The area of effect was so large that even Little Shi and the others who were far away had to retreat.
'Is it … over?'
Shika Kagura anxiously watched on until the black mist dissipated. He saw two figures, one standing, and one lying down.
The one lying down was the headless Kanzaki.
The one standing was Seiji.
"Brother …" She ran over to him.
Izawa and Kanna ran over as well. Keimi obediently followed after them while carrying Shigure on her back.
Seiji's hands were trembling.
Although he had the upper hand in the previous battle, he was still injured.
Even though Kanzaki was countered, he was still quite strong! Even though Seiji had used [Bullet Time] and [Emergency Dodge] to dodge all the fatal attacks, his personal barrier had been destroyed five times. He couldn't help but take some damage.
Currently, his arm was numb and painful. His body wasn't in good shape either.
"Argh …" Seiji couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His legs felt weak as he knelt on the ground.
"Brother!" Little Shi hurried over and supported him.
"Master …" Izawa looked towards Kanna. Kanna immediately cast a healing spell.
Seiji heaved a sigh of relief after being healed. He felt slightly better.
Shika Kagura gently wiped away the blood from Seiji's mouth. She felt heartache and self-blame.
Seiji smiled and held her hand.
Kanna was rendered speechless.
Izawa cautiously checked on Kanzaki's condition and confirmed that Kanzaki had died.
"Yuuma Saito is the one who died. Kanzaki is probably … no, definitely still alive," Seiji told him.
The one who died was the host, not Kanzaki's true body. Kanzaki's true body was definitely still somewhere.
Seiji had spent so much effort just to kill off Kanzaki's "clone".
Just his "clone" was already so powerful. Just how powerful was Kanzaki's true body?
How should he deal with the possibility of Kanzaki taking revenge on him after offending such a powerful individual?
He could only discuss this with Yui.
Seiji decided to think about the rest later. Seiji looked around him.
Kanzaki had collapsed, but the mist in the surroundings hadn't dissipated yet. The cluster amaryllis flowers were still blooming beautifully, and the red moon was still shining in the sky.
Seiji's domain hadn't been dispelled yet, so he could only go look for Yoshihara.
'Wait a moment, did the red moon become larger?'
Seiji took a closer look and confirmed that it had indeed become larger. Not only that, it was still growing larger, and its brightness was also rapidly increasing.
…
"Whoosh!!! Ahhh!!!"
The gray mist suddenly started making indescribably strange noises as it rapidly expanded outwards. A large number of dark-red ghostly figures appeared!
The Kurosaki Family's combat squad started firing their weapons with the help of the Spiritual Ability users' spells, destroying these ghostly figures.
However, the number of ghostly figures rapidly increased. In a short period of time, there were tens of thousands of ghostly figures. This was far more than what the combat squad could deal with!!
Those who were infected by the ghostly figures would go berserk. They would attack their teammates to death or "infect" their teammates as well! The Spiritual Ability users were no longer able to handle the situation. The entire combat squad soon collapsed.
Everyone in the spectator stands hurriedly retreated. The flying transports speedily took off into the sky. However, with so many ghostly figures chasing after them, it wasn't that easy to leave.
The battleship opened fire at the center of the gray mist island!
Large-scale AOE cannons continuously shot into the dense horde of ghostly figures, causing blinding explosions. The scene was quite spectacular.
However, it still wasn't enough.
Although every cannonball destroyed a large number of ghostly figures, there were still many that remained, and the number was constantly increasing!
The battleship captain sent out an emergency request for reinforcements! This was no longer something that a single battleship could deal with.
Countless ghostly figures flew over the sea and surrounded the battleship. It was as if countless ants were surrounding an elephant. The battleship was forced to retreat as it fired its cannons.
The strange noises from the gray mist area became even louder. Then, a gigantic black figure gradually rose from the mist. The top of the figure split into the shape of a palm.
No … that was actually a palm!
