Taiyo dogdes Laptuas attack.
"Roaring Uppercut!!"
Laptuas goes up in the air and attempts to attack Taiyo.
"Ring Spear!"
A line of mini meteors forms a spear in the hand of Laptuas.
Laptuas throws the spear.
Taiyo smiles.
"Thunder Strike."
In a flash of lightning, figuratively and Literally, Kyusoku destroys the spear and kicks Laptuas on the ground.
Laptuas lands on his hands and flips backwards, simultaneously dodging Taiyo's punches.
"Pociski Słoneczne!"
Taiyo shoots three medium-sized solar bullets, out of his fingers, towards Laptuas.
Laptuas dodges two but gets hit by one.
"Gravity Sense."
Laptuas movements are now faster than normal due to making his gravitational pull strong enough to be able to attract the gravity of the Earth's core .
Laptuas appears in front of Taiyo in mer seconds.
"Gravity Indulgence."
Laptuas had made his hand so full with gravity, that, even the slightest touch can make the part that was touched, get pulverised into nothing in a blink of an eye.
Luckily though, Kyusoku came in just in the nick of time to punch Laptuas and deactivate his ability using the lightning from his hand.
One of Kyusoku's lightning-covered hands disappears at the same time Laptuas' ability disappears. Both abilities were cancelled out by each other.
Kyusoku immediately recovers his hand and goes to punch Laptuas but he was too fast for Kyusoku to stop.
"How about I retry this?" Laptuas said while dashing towards Taiyo
"Gravity Indulgence."
"Thunder Legs." Kyusoku said.
Kyusoku zooms at full speed.
Despite his efforts, Kyusoku is one second late and will not reach in time.
Laptuas hand is nearly on Taiyo's cheek.
"Aika Blitz."
A random girl appears right on time and saves Taiyo by disturbing the flow of time itself.
Laptuas hand goes behind Taiyo and Kyusoku leg ends up right in front of Laptuas' face.
"Lovitură Electrică De Tornadă."
Kyusoku spins his body fast enough to generate electricity and kicks Laptuas' right cheek off clean, exposing his jaw and teeth on that side.
Laptuas gets thrown off balance for a sec but he uses his 'Gravity Sense' to get him back on balance.
"What just happened?" Kyusoku asked.
"I've only heard of it once," Taiyo began "but i'm pretty sure that this is one of the 4 forgotten elements, the element of time."
"Who ever it is, their are clearly on our side." Kyusoku said.
The girl looks over at Laptuas and,in a blink of an eye, is at his side immediately.
Laptuas attempts to attack her but she dodges it and choke slams him.
Laptuas falls back immediately.
Taiyo looks closer to view her face but her face is under a mask.
"WHY ARE YOU HERE, AIKA!!" Laptuas said in a loud and angry voice, "YOU SHOULD BE IN YOUR CELL!!"
"I broke out of that miserable thing." Aika said, "After 2 long years of getting my power drained."
*Aika?* Taiyo thought. *Sounds familiar...?*
Aika retreated to Kyusoku's side.
Laptuas started to restore his cheek.
"The Inverted Technique." Kyusoku said.
The Inverted Technique is a technique that is taught to every young elemental user.
It allows the user to pull the life force of their own ki and remove it from its "protective barrier" and the ki that has been removed turns into 'pure ki', which is the most dense and unstable form of ki possible and it has its own rotation, which can be used to accelerate the bodies repair cells production rate, therefore, making the body part being healed in a faster rate.
The Inverted Technique can also be used to restore ki by, once again, pulling pure ki out of regular ki but this time the pure ki goes leaks out and goes the opposite direction and, due to the sudden movement, it bursts inside of the body, causing a temporary ki boost, and allows the body to restore lost ki.
Laptuas finishes healing his cheek.
"I'm gonna say this now and once only." Aika said.
"What is it?" Taiyo asked in confusion.
"Since I was being drained on a constant rate, with temporarily stops to restore my ki, for two years, my body had gotten used to that schedule and it will take 3 months to restore my ki at a normal rate, therefore, I can only use my technique 3 more times." Aika said while looking forward.
"I think that will be enough for us to hold him off until Yuki finishes his ritual to summon the 'Der Speer Von Skadi'." Kyusoku said.
Yuki is shown chanting on the mountain top.
"Eis des Hel, Geist des Hel, Speer des Eises, Sythe des Todes, Klinge der Kälte..." Yuki goes on to murmur more chant lines.
"So this is for him?" Aika said.
"Yep." Taiyo said.
"ok." Aika replied.
Taiyo dashes and punches Laptuas.
"Gravity Distort."
"Câmpul de Tunete."
Both attacks cancel each other out.
Taiyo punches Laptuas into the tree and Kyusoku appears behind him.
"Lightning Slashes."
"Gravity Field."
Laptuas is too slow to react in time and gets slashed all over on his body.
Kyusoku smilies and Taiyo launches himself to Laptuas.
Laptuas is hit in the stomach and lifted in the air.
Laptuas gets slammed into the ground.
Taiyo lands and Laptuas jumps backwards.
Taiyo and Laptuas stares at each other.
"What's wrong? Having a hard time catching up?" Taiyo said mockingly.
"Think again." Laptuas said while charging up ki.
