Even though Blythe's blood-binding abilities let Ayuka and the others think they had won the battle on the shore, Adhita eventually managed to free herself and evolve into a full-grown elephant.
They came up with a plan to cooperate, but Adhita wasn't their only foe. Maxim had also been set free, and Blythe was incapable of fighting at full power.
"I don't think the chances are in our favor. We may be more in number, but our strength in comparison to theirs is like paper against scissors." Explained Trap, holding his cords close to his body.
Yumiko looked at him from the front. "Well, then I'd say we're equal. We have numbers. They have power." She explained.
She looked to be the most confident and bravest among them. "Blue's right. I'm sure we can figure out a way to take them down." Kira added, glancing at Adhita. "Starting with her." Kira extended her legs and feet while energizing her spiritual aura.
Her blonde hair started to sway left and right, and her eyes turned orange as her blonde hair glistened with red and orange tones.
Ayuka was in amazement looking at her, but she refrained from asking any questions in favor of concentrating on treating Kizu's injured body.
"I suppose you're right. It'll take some skill and strategy to take down that giant elephant, but you know what they say; the bigger they are, the harder they fall." Unwrapping his cords and getting ready, Trap yelled.
Maxim stepped forward, crossing his arms behind his back. "If you believe Adhita will succumb to the likes of you at her full power. You're sadly mistaken." Laughed Maxim and kept a grin, but before he could continue, Adhita swung her massive trunk in his direction.
She shattered his ribs and slammed him against the wall, which on impact, crumbled and collapsed onto the ground. "I want to crush, crush, crush!" Adhita roared and yelled in frustration.
Maxim's body stumbled on the ground as a puddle of blood poured from his mouth. His vein exploded with fear, and his eyes shook with anguish and shock. "A-Adhita! Y-You m-moron! I'm on your side!"
Adhita swung her enormous trunk around in the air while standing on her back legs. Maxim's spine shattered when she slammed her heavy feet on his back, causing him to scream in agony and faint.
"She's out of control! She doesn't even know who her allies and enemies are! She's going to crush everyone!" Shouted Bruno.
Adhita hurriedly pulled her trunk behind and whipped it toward Yumiko and the others. "Here she comes!" Shouted Trap, leaping away with the rest while Yumiko crossed her swords in front of her chest.
She enchanted her skin and swords with steel-hard metal to increase durability and then felt Adhita's trunk ramming into her blades.
A clanging noise could be heard throughout the area when Adhita's trunk slammed into the blades. Yumiko shuddered when she felt the trembling of her blades.
Soon Yumiko was unable to maintain her grip for much longer. She got propelled through the air at high speed, weight, and force of the trunk.
Then, Trap took out his cord and threw it in Yumiko's direction. As they wrapped around Yumiko's waist, Trap held on firmly but struggled to hold her back due to the speed at which Yumiko moved.
While his feet were slipping on the ground, he abruptly heard enormous feet behind him. Adhita was almost ready to stomp him to the ground when she stood on her rear feet.
"Guys! Some help here would be nice!" Trap called, sweating from fear. Bruno and Kira zigzagged across each other and moved closer to Adhita. "Fatass! We're right here!" Shouted Kira, drawing her attention to them.
Adhita stomped to the side, sending a shockwave through the earth's surface. Kira and Bruno got nearly hit by the tremor she formed.
They jumped out of the way in the air, but Adhita formed herself in Kira's view.
Adhita snorted and roared, swinging her trunk from behind and all the way to the front. "I can't block it!" Shouted Kira, "I'd get crushed!"
"Trap! Toss me over!" Yumiko shouted.
He pulled the cord around her waist forward and sent her blasting through the air while hurriedly swinging his second cord in Adhita's direction and wrapping it around her trunk.
He pulled back with as much might as possible and managed to give Kira enough time for her to drop to the ground. "Thanks a lot, cable guy!" She thanked him and then saw Adhita swinging her trunk, where she dragged Trap through the air.
Bruno enchanted his fist and dashed forward. He leaped high in the air to match Adhita's height and pulled back his arm. He charged his spiritual aura into the tip of his fist and then rammed it in the middle of Adhita's head.
It stunned her for a moment as Bruno landed. She recovered quickly but gave Bruno enough time to retreat.
Yumiko raised her second blade above her head while placing the grip in her mouth. "Violent Swing!" She sliced downward with her sword, drawing a violet crescent.
She knelt down and pierced Adhita's skin with her blades. She landed on the ground after carving a line into Adhita's flesh. She quickly moved back, which caused the purple slice to erupt and shock Adhita's entire body.
Everyone observed what occurred to Adhita from a safe distance, yet the wound Yumiko inflicted was insufficient. Adhita stayed upright, enraged, and hostile.
Yumiko lowered herself to the ground and took her blade out of her mouth. "Are you serious? I sliced deep and accurately! How is she still not down?!"
The white bubble around Kizu disappeared, and Ayuka looked down at him. She slowly watched him sit up, grabbing his stomach. "Damn it... That jerk got me good. Thanks a bunch. I owe ya." Kizu said while coughing to catch his breath.
"You're welcome, but stay still and don't move. Your body needs some time to rest. Do not partake in any fighting; if you get into it, I won't be able to heal you again."
Kizu nodded in agreement. Ayuka quickly got to her feet and ran for the sea. She froze the water in front of her to provide a route in order to skate toward the ship where Ralphie landed.
Bruno looked at Kira, Yumiko, and Trap. "This isn't working. We might be able to hold her for a few more seconds, but I don't know how long until she falls." Explained Bruno as Yumiko raised her chin, looking at him.
"We need Blythe's help, but he's been knocked out for a while. If we can use him to cast a blood-binding spell on Adhita's body, we can take her down."
Trap argued with her. "What? Didn't you see what happened earlier? She broke through his blood-binding spell like it was nothing." Trap explained, but Yumiko didn't surrender her suggestion. "Yeah, but this time she's wounded. That wound I caused might not seem like it affected her power, but she's clearly weaker than before."
Everyone looked at each other before nodding. "Try to rouse Blythe up, Kira. We'll hold back Adhita." Kira shared a nod.
She quickly turned around and rushed toward Blythe as her hair and eyes changed back to normal.
