I didn't wait for the Inferno Kong to hit the water barrier. The bastard was using what looked like Flare Blitz (okay, I'm too much of a fan of Pokémon) and charging toward us while its body was completely wreathed in flames. Gritting my teeth, I stood my ground and unleashed a tidal wave at the Inferno Kong.
Aquarius's tsunami didn't help much, boiling and vaporizing instantly the moment the water came into contact with the flames. The Inferno Kong charged through the roiling inferno and slammed into the water barrier, breaking it upon impact. Fog erupted out as the water barrier collapsed and transformed into steam.
