Akira's world was a blur, his senses dulled and his body aching. He fought to steady himself, his vision struggling to focus. Kazuki, seizing the opportunity, closed in for the final strike.
But then, a surge of energy coursed through Akira, a brilliant white light emanating from his chest. In an instant, he vanished from Kazuki's view, reappearing before him.
Kazuki's eyes widened in astonishment, his attack thwarted by the sudden teleportation. Before he could react, Akira's voice rang out, filled with unwavering resolve, "Silverbloom: Judgemental Leaf!"
With breathtaking speed, Akira's hand met Kazuki's chest. The impact was cataclysmic, a force that shattered bone and sent Kazuki hurtling through the air.
A collective gasp echoed through the arena. Time seemed to stand still as Kazuki crashed to the ground, his body crumpled in agony. The sheer power behind Akira's strike was astonishing, a testament to a strength born of unyielding determination.
Silence settled over the arena, the air thick with disbelief. The impossible had unfolded before their very eyes.
Akira stood victorious, the battle was won. In a rush of exhilaration, Kasumi dashed forward, her eyes shining with pride and admiration. She wrapped her arms around Akira, congratulating him on his incredible feat.
