It was a Life and death standoff. The result of this Battle will decide whether Luke Will be able to walk the Earth Or not. One wrong move and Lives will End In a Matter of a few seconds. Especially When Serious Injuries Was now Present on both Luke's and The Black Panther's Body.
Luke, Who was now Silently Fighting the urge to Groan because of the Extreme pain that came from his chest, Stared intently At the Big cat's Eyes. Unwilling To break Eye contact as One Mistake from his side will surely end the Story of his new life.
His Hands that were once gripping the Thick branch Were now Shaking due to the excessive force he Used Earlier In their First Head clash.
"Come, Bring Me All you've Got. I will end you with a Single Swish Of my Hands!", Exclaimed Luke in the pretense of Looking Strong towards his opponent. Luke knew that showing weakness Especially in a battle Like this Was Stupid as it will Only boost The Beast's Confidence and morale.
Hearing his Fearless Words or tone, The Black Panther narrowed its eyes as it Clamped down to the Thick branch that's was embedded in its front Leg. Enduring the pain, The Beast threw the Beach away as it started Circling Luke.
Both Never break Eye contact as The Wait continued For a few more minutes before the Black panther once again made its Move.
Hind legs springing into Action, The Big cat Charged Towards Luke at Terrifying speed With its eyes narrowed at Luke Intently.
Seeing the Panther make its move, Luke Also sprang into action. Turning his body To his left, Luke sprinted towards the direction where the Branch was Thrown by The Beast Earlier.
Time seems to slow down As the Movements of both Luke and The Black Panther Entered the Sights Of the Spectators Around them.
With his life Depending on it, Luke grabbed the Thick branch and Swung it Towards his Back with full force. The Thick branch trembled as A Loud Crack was heard reverberating Throughout the battlefield.
The Thick part at the end of the Branch smashed at the Panther's Injured Front leg, Breaking the bones that were Slightly exposed because of the Stab that Luke did with the Thick branch earlier.
Roar!
The Panther Let out a roar in pain as it Limped At the ground for A Few Breaths before Pouncing in Luke. Luke, Who was In the middle of recovering his balance Due to The Excessive Force He used earlier, Was Caught off guard by the Sudden pounce and can only use His Right arm To shield His neck from the beast's Terrifying Fangs.
The sound of Something hard entering The flesh resounded Before being followed by a Painful Scream. blood Splattered to Luke's face as the Panther's Fangs Embedded themselves Around his Arm. The Panther Clenched It's Jaws and was about to shake head in an attempt to rip the Fleshy Part Of Luke's arm in its mouth when The Thick, Hard surface of the Branch in Luke's Other Hand Smashed At the Panther's Head, Making him Hiss in pain as the vibration and impact Caused More damage to his arm.
The sudden Attack, Fortunately, Manage to make the beast Let off his arm. Using this opportunity, Luke Grabbed The Thick branch in a Reverse grip before 'Slashing' It to the Beast's Jaws.
Unfortunately for Luke, The panther Manage to recover In time And was able to Dodge The Incoming Swing By Ducking BeloIts's Trajectory.
"Fuck! This piece of shit!"
Seeing the Panther dodge his Attack almost made Luke cough out blood In anger. Gritting his teeth, Luke Miraculously Summersaulted Backwards with surprising strength, Unknowingly Dodging a Fierce swipe of The Beast's Claws Before Landing on his knees with a thud.
The two were once again at a stalemate. Even Luke was Surprised that he was able to Fight the beast toe to toe without suffering More Severe wounds Than has expected.
As the two were Once again on a standoff, A Thought Suddenly Flashed Through his mind. Glancing At the Crystals in his Left arm, Luke Looked around and Found the suitable Target In the distance.
Growl!
A Low, Terrifying growl Emerged from the black Panther's Throat As its Patience was now depleting. It can't Understand how a Weak looking Ape Can resist its Attacks, much less Survive While fighting it With equal Skills and ferocity.
ROAR!
just like before, It was the black panther that made the first move At this third Round. However, Unlike Before, The Beast decided to end This Silliness Of fight And charged At Luke With extreme Killing Intent and Viciousness.
It decided to End Luke's Life In a Strike.
Seeing this as a signal, Luke Turned around and Sprinted towards his target. The sound Vanished Around him as his heart beatattfaster than normal. There was only one goal in his mind and Luke was willing to bet his Life At the Succession of his plan.
'I hope this works'
In the Forest floor Of the Jungle, A Man and A Black Panther can be seen running towards the trees At astonishing Speeds. The Man at the front Was Dragging A Now Short, Thick branch Behind him as the Panther Chased him with Extreme Ferocity and Viciousness.
"PANEL!"
The Man running in the front suddenly Shouted with all his might, Startling both the animals Around then and the Panther Before Throwing his Short, Thick branch Towards a Resting Owl On a branch.
The crystal On his Wrist started shining before Rays Of Multi-colored lights began To Appear. The Multicolored rays Flickered above his Wrist before a Square, Holographic Panel that contains texts and Numbers Started Forming.

Seeing that his gamble was a Success, Luke Readied himself before Jumping into the air with his legs bending Behind him. During Mid-air, Luke saw how the Panther pounced at him before He delivered a hard, Skull crushing Roundhouse kick To its lower jaws. Knocking it back into the ground, allowing him to Gather his Strength and Jump towards the Now falling Dead owl and Bloody Shirt branch.
Using his Left hand, Luke grabbed the Short branch before Striking The dead spectacled owl Like A professional Baseball Batter.
