Physical attacks, Blood Aura, and Qi, all of these powers that Quinn had focused on training the most were useless against the phoenix, and to top it off, he was suffering from a side effect from the phoenix's power lowering his strength in general.
Not only that, but being so close to the phoenix in this type of heat seemed to somewhat affect him as well. He was feeling tired far quicker than usual, and he hadn't even moved that much.
'The only thing that works so far is the shadow so I'm just going to have to use that!' Quinn used the shadow portals to hop by the side of the phoenix's face, while still encasing both of his gauntlets in the shadow.
His fists were around ten times bigger than they usually would have been, and with the Nitro Accelerate active most of his speed had recovered. With this, he swung his hands twice, hitting the phoenix on one side of its face.
