whapow! whapow! whapow! Jolly hit vora three more times as she tried reaching out grabbing the whip made of thick twisted vines with red vibrating thorns on it. he managed to scrape and scratch her up in areas her armor had gaps in and pushed forward throwing out multiple vine spears.
Vora was caught off guard with Jolly's sudden attack. and just when he created a second vine whip while rushing in, multiple green balls shot towards his side which he quickly put up a vine wall longer than usual that would also guard his advancement.
He swung both whips aiming at her head and legs when an explosion went off in front of him after a purple marble sized ball of energy appeared in his face knocking him back. as he was flung back he commanded the branches from the trees and swatted berry and his soul beast like a fly.
while jolly faced vora, berry's soul beast used its horns to cut and break the vines that had berry confined to a tree. once he got loose, he attacked jolly leading to this moment.
berry didn't see the sudden attack and wasn't expecting the trees to come alive and suddenly attack him. the tree branches slapped him from tree to tree and wrapped around him tightly. they were much more difficult to break than Jolly's vines.
jolly attempted to push back forward when more explosions went off behind him. the impact blasted a partial hole in his leather armor as it knocked him forward into a harry black leg with purple shades of energy waving from it. Jolly raised his arm entangling vines around it preparing to block when at the last minute a vine stretched out from a tree grabbing him and yanking him out the way.
" that was a close one, this chick is tough. that kick probably would have broken or fractured my arm." he thought to himself.
he then created multiple walls boxing himself inside.
" those walls will not help you." vora shouted as purple roses sprouted from the vine walls exploding, shattering them to pieces but jolly was nowhere to be seen as vora eyes darted around slightly. vines and tree branches grew longer and larger reaching out. the vines tried to trap vora while the branches of the trees swatted at her.
With her claws on her hand and feet she sliced branch after branch and vine after vine. for a second it looked as if she could keep up the pace but soon became overwhelmed. it was just too many trees that were being controlled by Jolly's ability.
seeing her being overwhelmed jolly felt his plan worked but he had two more tricks up his sleeve. before leaving from his hiding spot he made a replica of himself out of vines and commanded other vines to pull it up in the tree he was behind. he was just about to move when another purple rose grew out of the tree right beside him.
He got out of the way just before the rose detonated. vines stretched from other trees grabbing and pulling him to safety, at least that's what he believed until a set of purple energy balls appeared in the air along side his aerial retreat.
Boom Boom!
Jolly's body crashed into a tree knocking the breath out of him. his eyes bulged out as his back crashed into the trunk of a tree. while falling down more small marble balls were in the air surrounding him.
Regaining his composure while flailing down he attempted to command a few vines in other areas that were in the clear to swoop in and pull him out like he had done a few times already but this time vora was ready.
The vines shot out reaching for jolly but once they got close the energy ball closest to jolly exploded blasting him up and out of its reach. more vines and then branches began reaching out but was obliterated as one rose sprouted from every tree jolly was controlling. the purple roses were now the size a grapefruit as every tree one sprouted on was turned into a small crater being blown to pieces.
Ding! Vora bolt has defeated Berry wade. there are 9 contestants remaining.
A transparent screen appeared in everyone's vision all at once.
upon destroying a small portion of the forest they were currently in, berry was still confined by branches from trees for a while before his soul beast once again helped free him. this time though jolly kept him busy with his multitasking methods and so the second round of jolly vs vora berry was battling branches and vines from the nearby trees attacking him.
Once vora did what she did the multiple explosions were much bigger and stronger. during berry fight with the forest itself he was captured in multiple explosions which knocked him out and after he crashed in the dirt from the explosive impacts Shield labeled him done for the match. to lose a person had to forfeit, be knocked out, disqualified by the ring or unable to continue. and berry was knocked slap out from vora's attack.
she didn't care about berry and wasn't focused on him. she was just simply clearing a chunk of the area because she realized Jolly slick had the advantage because of the forest. she managed to knock berry out by chance, only because he was so focused on fighting the continuous attacks from the trees.
vora didn't stop there, hundreds of marble sized energy balls surrounded her and jolly in a circle that had a 30 meters radius. floating in place, high and low like they were waiting on something. she had completely cleared the area of vegetation.
Jolly smiled at vora who stood as if she didn't have a care in the world. "so you think trapping me in this little circle of exploding orbs and getting rid of the trees and vegetation in this small battle area will make me handicap or something huh."
"as a matter of fact, yes I do. it seems your ability involves the controlling of trees and vegetational life. without that around I'm sure you won't be much trouble to get rid of anymore." vora said with confidence.
"well I can see why you think this little tactic of yours would work and you're not wrong about my ability but I must say you have underestimated my power. you've let your eyes deceive you." jolly says as his finger tips began to glow red and the area they were in immediately began changing color. the ground to be more specifically, stretching from beneath jolly feet was a black grey dusty substance with streaks of red pulsing energy. the ground
was turning to ash itself the same way it was when jolly and Damon first saw Kimbo back In village city.
Back then jolly fingers began to pulse red and with every step he took the ground beneath his feet turned to ash. Jolly was good at learning and once that occurred back in village city he never stopped thinking about it and in secret practice while walking anywhere he went. He tried and tried to learn how he had done it and even with the walk over to obsidian city with everyone he was practicing generating his dark forest mana through the ground under his feet.
shield had given jolly a little advice after seeing him fail so many times. shield mostly stayed with Damon but could still feel both of their minds through the system and could tell when either one was going through something mentally tough.
Shield tips had given jolly the chance to figure it out.
As the area they were standing in changed to ash. branches and vines from the trees outside the desolate circle they were in shot forward and we're intercepted by Vora's power which was being used as a line of defense in some way.
each time a purple orb exploded another would form taking the previous one's place. any attacks coming from the outside of the orb circle didn't make it through.

Jolly ran forward with vine whips in his hands whipping them forward. "that won't work this time vora spoke bluntly while catching both whips before they were pulled back. the thorns on the whips were being crushed by her claw like wolf hand in which jolly didn't expect but everything was still going according to plan as the ash continued covering the ground.
the whips turned to ash like vines suddenly and the thorns grew back pulsating red sapping vora's energy. she tried letting them go but they surfed up her arm wrapping around them tightly. once the area vora was standing in turned to ash as well, her feet began sinking through the ash as red and black roots jumped up and dived in the ash covered ground like fishes jumping out the water and back in swimming towards her sunken feet grabbing them and pulling her lower half deeper.
the ground began pulsating red in areas sapping her energy as well.
Vora's body tensed up as her face expression changed from calm to worrisome. her energy was being drained much faster now that jolly was using multiple points of contact with her dark forest magic. his previous plan was shattered the moment vora destroyed the area but he quickly hatched another.
the trees on the outside of the ring vora made stopped attacking as green energy left them. jolly was currently using his ability to take energy from all living vegetational things and as well as his dark magic that would steal energy from a person or beast as well.
Energy began rising inside him as he stretched out one of his arms releasing one of the whips. A red and black ball of energy appeared growing bigger as energy poured into his being. "this, I feel super powerful, so this is what I can truly do with my power. he thought to himself as the ball began to spiral.
Vora's purple balls she used to make a line of defense shot towards jolly at immense speed but were blocked by roots that shot up from the ash covered ground that glowed red.
instead of an explosion occurring something else happened as the balls were colliding with the roots. purple glow of the balls became red as they too became energy for jolly.
Seeing this Spade nearly jumped out his seat witnessing what was happening on the jumbo transparent monitor of the fight. "it seems Damon's not the only one with extraordinary potential,looks like vora will have to stop playing games and get serious to win this fight."
