The collision between the two of them created a huge crater in front of the lake, causing water from the lake to start pouring in continuously.
Meanwhile, inside the kingdom, Merlin, along with Meliodas and the old king, had begun discussing the formation of the Seven Deadly Sins, but the selection of members was still in progress. Suddenly, Merlin paused.
"What's wrong, Merlin? What's happening... Wait, this power... Escanor, who is he fighting?"
Because Merlin is a researcher herself, she immediately noticed the drastic change in Escanor's power level. Although Escanor's power fluctuated daily, it had never increased so rapidly before.
And Meliodas also sensed this power directly with his terrifying intuition.
"What happened?"
The old king, not being a combatant, asked with curiosity upon seeing the reactions of the other two.
"It seems like Escanor is fighting someone. His power level skyrocketed in an instant and has now reached fifty thousand!"
Merlin said as she looked at the device she used to detect the power level.
Hearing this, the old king was shocked.
Even the current Meliodas wouldn't be a match for Escanor. Unless it was the Meliodas from three thousand years ago, no one else could content with Escanor. Now, someone was actually fighting Escanor, they wondered how such thing was possible.
"It seems like the battle is quite intense. Your Majesty, we'll go take a look. After all, this matter seems complicated. You shouldn't go; your body can't handle such power fluctuations. Merlin, let's go!"
Meliodas was extremely curious about what was happening and immediately took Merlin with him. As for the old king, although he wanted to say something else, he couldn't. That's just how it was when you were weak. He naturally knew Escanor's situation, so he couldn't get close to such a battle. At this time, all he could do is wait for news here.
On the other side, after Meliodas and Merlin left the castle, they quickly flew over and saw Asahi colliding with Escanor. The weapons they were using were exactly the same, and the aura of power emanating from them was also identical.
"How did this happen? Another Divine Axe Rhitta and another Sunshine? How is it possible for two individuals with this power to exist simultaneously? And he even managed to control this power!"
The current Merlin and Meliodas both know Escanor, or rather, the entire kingdom knew Escanor well, after all, he is too famous. However, there is not much contact between Merlin and Escanor currently.
"I have no idea what's going on, but this battle is really intense. I can hardly contain myself!"
Meliodas, being a fighter himself, also had a penchant for battle. Seeing such an intense fight, he suddenly felt the urge to join in.
"I advise against it. The current you are not you from three thousand years ago, and their power levels are still increasing. I can't measure that person's power level, but his power has affected Escanor's transformation. It's almost noon, so you should know what he'll become by then!"
After Merlin reminded him, Meliodas felt helpless. Although he is very strong now, he couldn't intervene in a battle during noon, especially the dangerous one minute.
"Let's move back a bit. If those two keep fighting, this lake will probably disappear!"
After saying this, both Meliodas and Marlin stepped back directly.
Meanwhile, the battle between the two became increasingly fierce. Escanor's strength continued to rise, and his movements and strikes became more powerful. However, Asahi seemed nonchalant, almost indifferent.
With each collision, the surrounding mountains, lakes, and land were completely devastated, leaving nothing but scorched earth.
Boom!
However, in the next second, Escanor threw away his Divine Axe Rhitta and his body rapidly expanded, quickly reaching a height of five meters, turning into a muscular giant.
This scene reminded Asahi of his past. He had gone through a similar transformation, but after gaining control, he was no longer the same muscular brute.
Now, Escanor appeared as a super muscular giant.
"It's started. It's entering that minute now. Escanor's strength should reach one hundred thousand!"
Meliodas's expression became extremely serious. In fact, Escanor's power level is not only that much.
In the later stages of the original story, one of the Four Archangels with a power level of two hundred thousand was still easily defeated by Meliodas. However, Escanor's power could counter even the overwhelming power of the Four Archangels.
Not surprisingly, his power has probably reached hundreds of thousands by that time.
Of course, that's only when he's releasing the strongest attack within that one minute.
At this moment, Escanor had entered the state of unparalleled dominance during that minute.
"Do you want to use your real weapon now? Then let's give it a try!"
Asahi also put away his Divine Axe Rhitta. After all, Escanor's weapon wasn't... that axe. The Divine Axe Rhitta was only prepared to suppress his power and store it. And his true weapon is his own body.
"Divine Sword, Escanor!"
It can be said that Escanor is extremely arrogant. He used his own name to name his technique.
However, Asahi directly countered with his Divine Sword.
Although it was the two of them clashing with their bare hands, after the collision, it turned into two incredibly sharp and terrifying swords.
Both parties' hands were unharmed after the clash, but behind them, hundreds of miles of cracks appeared.
Fortunately, there was no one around, otherwise, countless casualties would have occurred by now.
However, the commotion was significant. The entire kingdom was constantly trembling from the immense power unleashed.
"These two monsters have used such moves, but thankfully, the one minute should be over soon. Escanor's body shouldn't be able to withstand such immense power now, and he should be injured by now!"
Meliodas also realized Escanor's current condition, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
And as Meliodas guessed, after the minute passed, Escanor immediately collapsed. His body couldn't bear such a massive power, so he fell into a state of unconsciousness.
