Chapter 70. Alien Technology, Kid!
Chapter 70. Alien Technology, Kid!
"A pointless provocation..."
"It's nothing but a fit of impotent rage," Jin Yi said, ignoring Su Na Gui's clamor and calmly questioning the mechanical Zetton in the main control center.
"Has the data collection on Scia parasitism been completed?"
"The basic data is complete," the electronic female voice responded, "but some parameters require closer monitoring for better accuracy."
"Alright... I'm bored anyway, so I'll play along with this guy."
Boss Jin yawned, the sound of gunfire abruptly stopped, and the white dragon above the clouds retracted its wings and slowly stepped into the verdant forest.
"Ha, good lad, you've got some guts—but that's enough!"
Covered in dust and dirt from the hail of bullets, Sukuna's nameless fire burned even more fiercely. He opened his mouth wide, and flames of thousands of degrees Celsius burst forth, creating a raging fire dragon that lunged at the white dragon!
But that wasn't enough. Sukuna-ki's head rotated 180 degrees, the hair on the back of its head was lifted up, revealing another face, from which howling winds spewed out!
Sukuna-ki, also known as Ryomen Sukuna, is a monster with two faces, one appearing in front of people and the other hidden under the hair at the back of its head. It can breathe fire and exhale wind, and countless exorcists have fallen victim to its unexpected attacks.
The wind fanned the flames, and the fire dragon's size expanded instantly, engulfing the white dragon in a flash. At the same time, it ignited the dense forest beneath its feet, sending plumes of thick smoke into the air.
Su Na Gui felt a surge of joy.
"Did you get it?"
But his smile immediately froze.
The rising smoke obscured Sukunaki's vision, but from within the flames came muffled footsteps and the sound of trees snapping. A few seconds later, Galactron reappeared in his sight.
It was completely unharmed, except for a layer of dust on its surface.
"Being able to withstand the burning flames... is not surprising, but you've now entered my attack range!"
The failure of the flames did not disappoint Sukunaki too much. Although opponents who could defend against this move were rare, they did exist. Only such opponents were worthy of being Sukunaki's first opponent in his resurgence!
Although it's Hakuryu and not Ida Keiryu... whichever it is, they will all bow down at my feet!
Sukuna-ki mustered all his strength, clenched his fist, and the mysterious white sphere not only helped him grow flesh and blood quickly, making the craters left by bullets disappear, but also greatly increased his strength.
He roared, and suddenly, his muscles exploded with unparalleled power. This punch was as heavy as a mountain and as fast as lightning, and it slammed heavily into Galactron's chest!
clang!
The sound was as clear and crisp as the tolling of an ancient temple bell, but a thousand times louder, echoing through the mountains.
Watching the game, Jinglong Ida instinctively covered his ears, startling even the birds on the neighboring hilltop, which fluttered their wings and flew away.
"..."
Unfortunately, this powerful punch did not achieve the effect that Sukunaki had hoped for. The breastplate, which was expected to be shattered in one blow, remained intact on the white dragon's chest.
If one had to pinpoint any effect, it was probably that the force of the punch blew away a significant portion of the black ash covering the chestplate, making Galactron's chest even shinier.
"What's wrong?"
Sukuna was stunned for a moment, but the warrior's instinct made a judgment: if one strike missed, then ten or a hundred strikes would surely be enough to defeat the White Dragon!
The mysterious white sphere entangled in the heart burst forth with power once more, and Sukuna raised his fist again, slamming it into the same spot. This punch was faster than the previous one, and the third punch was even faster and more ruthless than the second. The punches, as fast as bullets and as dense as a rainstorm, all slammed into Galactron's chest!
This is what is meant by continuous striking without breathing!
Ding ding ding ding ding ding!
The force of the punch was so powerful, and the wind from it was so fast that the resulting gale bent all the trees within hundreds of meters of them, but the sound of breaking was quickly drowned out by the dense ringing of bells.
People twenty kilometers away covered their ears in unison, and even sleeping babies were awakened and started crying loudly.
But how effective is this so-called continuous punching without breathing?
Galactron, watching Sukunaki who was fully focused on attacking with incredibly fast punches that even left afterimages, did not retaliate. Instead, he put his hands on his hips and straightened his chest.
Like the original Ultraman, he used his chest muscles to withstand the relentless onslaught.
How can hastily formed muscles possibly move hard metal from outer space?
"Idiot, it's time to wake up..."
Extremes beget their opposites. The energy provided by the Sphia life form was also limited. Sukuna's fists gradually slowed down, but his heart grew increasingly anxious.
"What? What? Why aren't you dead yet?!"
The response to Sukuna-ki was an incredibly heavy slap!
"What happened?"
Sukuna's head was momentarily emptied, and he couldn't understand what was happening at all. His whole body floated in the air, completely bewildered.
"Alien technology, kid!"
Then came Galatron's beautiful roundhouse kick!
Brilliant shot!
A deafening roar, like thunder, shook the ground, and some of the evacuated people even fell to the ground.
The entire body of Sukuna Oni was deeply embedded in Mount Sukuna. A boulder rolled down and hit his face, the pain making him more alert.
"impossible……"
Sukuna's hand unconsciously reached into the mountain, groping around. Finally, Sukuna found what he was looking for—cold and hard, yet it gave him a sense of immense peace.
The famous sword – Ryuzanmaru.
Hundreds of years ago, this sword wasn't called by this name, but when its master's head was severed by Jinglong, no matter what the sword was called before, Ryuzanmaru became its only name.
What is Jing Tian Jing Long? What is Bai Long?
Everything will be split in two!
Galactron did not take advantage of the situation. Sukunaki's enormous body emerged from the soil, shook off the pebbles from its hair, and stared at the motionless white dragon.
At the same time that Sukuna-ki obtained the weapon, a giant sword also quietly appeared in Haku's hand.
Sukuna-ki struck a perfect pose, so precise and solemn that even the most discerning samurai couldn't find anything wrong with it.
With mind and spirit united, and spirit channeled into the sword, nothing else exists in the world; everything slowly disappears.
The tree disappeared.
The mountain disappeared.
The sky disappeared.
Even the ground beneath their feet had disappeared.
Even the self is about to dissolve, leaving a place without heaven or earth, where only the enemy exists.
How can you possibly defend against such an unexpected strike?
"Zetton, increase the computing power, analyze the sensor data, calculate the trajectory of Sukuna-ki, and the trajectory of the sword..."
You have superhuman skills, I have advanced technology.
Boss Jin calmly issued orders, and the Zetton core roared, calculating all the possibilities.
Actually, there's no need to block this move at all. The thrust from the jets under Galactron's feet can propel the machine thousands of meters high. Those who can't fly can only watch helplessly.
Jin Yi didn't understand swordsmanship, but when his opponent struck a cool pose, he still had to show some appreciation, otherwise he would be too insensitive.
Knife fighting is also a rare kind of romance!
The two men reached a strange understanding and stood facing each other.
I don't know how much time passed, but finally—
At the touch of a hair.
It's like that day from a hundred years ago is repeating itself.
Jinglong Jingtian held his breath.
A flash of light appeared.
Two figures flashed past.
Victory or defeat —
It's settled.
Sukuna Oni, his hands trembling, raised the famous sword Ryuzanmaru. This incomparably sharp divine weapon was now only half intact, the other half deeply embedded in the soil.
He stared at the broken blade.
"Impossible... My beloved sword was forged from steel refined through countless hammer blows, and imbued with centuries of resentment... How could it break so easily?!"
Galactron laid down his weapon. His greatsword, made of Pedanium alloy, was unharmed. There was no need to continue using weapons against an unarmed enemy.
"Heh... brat, Pedanium alloy is the culmination of tens of thousands of years of scientific research by a highly advanced extraterrestrial civilization!"
