Kuragami called Isamu and Homura closer, urgency in his voice.
"Listen, both of you," he began, his voice firm.
"I have another plan, but we need to act quickly if we want to defeat Binsa."
"Yeah because your last one was so great. What do you got now?"
"What if, we use Kyanseru!"
Isamu and Homura both face palm.
"This guy is a idiot. This is your friend by the way."
"Hey, he was your friend at one point too."
"Listen I know it sounds dumb but I believe there's a way we can force Kyanseru to release out of my body."
"And how do we do that?"
Kuragami's lips curved into a determined smile.
"We need to create a diversion. Isamu, you and Homura will engage Binsa in combat, keeping her attention focused on you. While you distract her, I'll concentrate on releasing all the aura from my body. So that I only have a little bit left."
"Why not man. Either way we're dead."
Homura nods in agreement.
Kuragami's voice grew more intense as he continued.
"It won't be easy. Binsa's earth techniques are powerful, and she will do everything in her power to stop us. But if we want to defeat her, we have to push beyond our limits and seize this opportunity."
Isamu clenched his fists.
"We'll do whatever it takes to keep Binsa occupied while you release your aura. The plan is still stupid though."
Homura nodded, his fiery gaze locking with Kuragami's.
"We're a team, Kuragami. We'll fight with everything we've got and trust in your plan."
Kuragami's face lightens up.
"Thank you, both of you. Your trust means everything to me. Now, let's move! We have no time to waste."
The trio sprang into action, charging towards Binsa with unwavering resolve. Their coordinated attacks and strategic maneuvers created a whirlwind of chaos, drawing Binsa's attention away from Kuragami, who focused on the arduous task of releasing his aura.
"What are they planning?"
As Isamu and Homura fought valiantly, they could feel Kuragami's aura gradually dissipating, and so can Binsa.
"Releasing his aura that fast? Kuragami Nozomi has gave up! This means, those two are dead meat."
Binsa starts laughing. The intensity of the battle heightened, each move calculated and executed with precision. They could sense Binsa growing power.
Isamu and Homura found themselves pushed to their limits, their bodies aching with exhaustion.
Isamu and Homura fought with all their might, their attacks aimed at diverting Binsa's attention away from Kuragami. They dodged and weaved and struck, doing everything in their power to keep her occupied.
"Hurry up Kuragami!"
Kuragami focused his efforts on expelling the aura that had coursed through his veins. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he concentrated, his body trembling with the strain of releasing such tremendous power. The process took time, and Isamu and Homura could feel their strength waning as Binsa pressed harder against them.
Just when it seemed all hope was lost, Binsa managed to break through their defenses, leaving Isamu and Homura vulnerable and unable to continue the fight. She turned her attention to Kuragami, her eyes gleaming with malicious intent. Closing the distance between them, she unleashed a surge of Kyanseru directly at him, intending to bring him to his knees.
"No! I have to try it now, I have no choice!"
Kuragami stood resolute. He absorbed the full force of Binsa's attack, enduring the intense pain that washed over him by swiftly using Ice Coating for the moment. In that moment, he grabbed hold of Binsa's throat, his grip tightening to prevent her from escaping his grasp. The Ice Coating fades away. He uses ice on his hands to keep it on her throat, using the remainder of his aura.
With a calm yet fierce resolve, Kuragami stared into Binsa's eyes, his voice laced with conviction.
"You told me that without Kyanseru, one cannot defeat a Kyanseru user. And that the strength of Kyanseru can come from strong bloodlines."
Binsa groans.
"But what you don't know, Binsa, I come from a lineage of strength. My father was one of the strongest Disciples ever, and my older brother is one of the strongest alive right now!"
As Kuragami's fist tightened, an eruption of Kyanseru energy began to emanate from it, crackling and pulsating with an unparalleled intensity. The aura of his ancestors surged through his veins, fueling his resolve. He looked directly into Binsa's eyes, his voice resounding with newfound power. Kuragami chuckles.
"You two looking?"
Isamu and Homura ses Kuragami using Kyanseru. They both smile.
"I told you it would work."
In one swift motion, Kuragami unleashed his Kyanseru-infused strike, a surge of energy so potent that it overwhelmed and engulfed Binsa's own Kyanseru. The clash of energies reverberated through the battlefield, shattering the earth beneath their feet. Binsa's defenses crumbled before the might of Kuragami's unleashed power, and she was defeated.
Kuragami released his grip on Binsa, allowing her to crumple to the ground, defeated and powerless. The once indomitable Kyanseru user lay before him, her aura diminished. Kuragami's chest heaved as he caught his breath, the weight of the battle finally settling upon him.
Binsa starts mumbling on the floor.
"No way I've been beaten by a bunch of kids!"
She tries to get up.
"Kuragami Nozomi! I'll remember that name, and when The True Supreme King returns, you will fall to us!"
"Isn't he already here? I'm ready for him!"
She laughs and runs off. The three of them tries chasing her.
However, the strain of their combined efforts weighed heavily on them, causing their knees to buckle and their strength to wane. They struggled to maintain their balance, their breaths ragged and labored.
With a collective gasp, the trio collapsed to the ground, their bodies unable to endure any longer. The impact sent tremors through the earth, echoing the toll their fight had taken on them. Dust and debris danced in the air, settling around them like a shroud of weariness.
Isamu groaned, his muscles protesting as he lay sprawled on the ground.
"I can't... I can't move anymore," he muttered, his voice strained.
Kuragami, his face etched with fatigue, let out a sigh.
"We've reached our limits." He closed his eyes briefly, his body aching with every breath.
"We underestimated Binsa... her strength
... was beyond our expectations."
They all then close their eyes and rest, hoping that Sasaki and the others will be able to finish off the mission without them. They then become unconscious.
