Chapter 126 - CHAPTER 125: Yamanashi Showdown, Part 7

Raiden's movement was swift and decisive as he dashed towards Enishi, his intentions veiled in the midst of battle. Enishi, ever the vigilant adversary, prepared himself to block whatever attack Raiden had in store, expecting nothing more than a mere blow or perhaps a lightning bolt at best. Little did he anticipate the true nature of Raiden's impending assault.

As Raiden closed the distance between them, his lips moved in silent murmurs, his focus unwavering as he prepared to unleash his next move. Enishi, however, paid little heed to Raiden's muttered words, his attention solely fixed on the imminent clash that lay ahead.

Then, in a moment of electrifying brilliance, Raiden's voice cut through the air like thunder, his words resonating with power and purpose. "Fulminant Judgment," he proclaimed, his command invoking the wrath of the heavens themselves as a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, heralding the onset of a devastating assault.

Enveloped in a relentless barrage of electrifying energy, Enishi found himself engulfed in the searing fury of Raiden's attack. Despite the overwhelming force of the onslaught (10 Quintillion volts), Enishi remained steadfast, his resolve unbroken as he weathered the storm with unwavering composure.

Amidst the chaos of battle, Enishi's thoughts raced, his keen intellect analyzing the situation with keen insight. "This attack is 100 times more powerful than his last... Interesting," he mused, his mind alight with the thrill of battle as he recognized the growing intensity of Raiden's efforts. "So, he's finally getting somewhat serious. I'll give him more time to show me what he's capable of," Enishi resolved, his confidence unwavering in the face of adversity.

Despite the ferocity of Raiden's assault, Enishi emerged unscathed, his steely demeanor unchanged as he addressed his adversary once more. "I decided to give you the chance to live longer. Give it your all," he declared, his words carrying a hint of respect for Raiden's newfound determination.

Raiden's response was a smile, a silent acknowledgment of the challenge that lay ahead as he prepared to unleash more of his power against his formidable opponent.

Raiden's movements were fluid and deliberate as he retreated, his lips moving in silent contemplation as he muttered to himself. Enishi, ever the vigilant observer, couldn't help but be intrigued by Raiden's demeanor, though he dismissed any notion of imminent danger, confident in his own superior strength.

As Raiden prepared for his next move, Enishi maintained his composure, recognizing that Raiden was still holding back his most formidable abilities. Despite the impressive display of power thus far, Enishi remained unruffled, his confidence unshaken by the spectacle unfolding before him.

Then, with a resounding declaration, Raiden unleashed his next attack: "Thunderous Nova." The air crackled with electricity as Raiden channeled a surge of energy into a concentrated ball of lightning, releasing it in a breathtaking explosion of sound and fury that reverberated across the battlefield with devastating force (800 Quintillion Volts).

Enishi stood firm amidst the chaos, his stoic expression betraying no hint of concern as he weathered the onslaught with ease. Though the power of Raiden's attack was undeniable, it paled in comparison to Enishi's own formidable capabilities, leaving him unscathed and unmoved by the electrically-charged devastation.

Observing Raiden's efforts, Enishi couldn't help but acknowledge the gradual increase in power behind each strike. Yet, despite the growing intensity of Raiden's assaults, Enishi remained unfazed, his confidence in his own superiority unwavering.

"He's not doing terribly," Enishi reflected, his thoughts a calm counterpoint to the raging storm around him. "The power beyond each strike increases, though... It's nowhere near enough to be a challenge."

Raiden's voice cut through the tumultuous din, breaking Enishi's reverie as he remarked, "You're liking this, aren't you?" Enishi merely offered a faint smirk in response, his amusement tinged with a hint of boredom as he awaited Raiden's next move.

Meanwhile, Raiden plotted his strategy with calculated precision, his mind racing with possibilities as he sought to catch Enishi off-guard with his next attack. "Voltic Cataclysm better work," he thought to himself, a surge of determination coursing through his veins as he prepared to unleash his most powerful technique yet.

As Kaito's urgent cry pierced through the charged atmosphere, Enishi pivoted on his heel, his senses instantly alert to the approaching threat. With practiced efficiency, he prepared to intercept Kaito's advance, muscles tensed and senses honed to a razor's edge.

Yet, before Enishi could unleash his next strike, Kaito's voice rang out once more, echoing with determination and purpose. "ENISHI!!!!!!" The intensity of the shout caught Enishi off guard, his gaze snapping to Kaito as he surged forward with unwavering resolve.

Enishi's instincts screamed for action, his mind calculating potential strategies in the blink of an eye. But just as he poised himself for attack, Kaito unleashed an unexpected technique: "Blood Transmutation."

In an instant, the crimson fluid coursing through Kaito's veins underwent a startling transformation, morphing into a weapon of deadly efficiency. Coalescing into a whip forged from coagulated blood, the weapon crackled with latent power, its serrated edges gleaming ominously in the ambient light.

Enishi's reaction was swift but measured, his curiosity piqued by Kaito's unorthodox approach. Observing the weapon with a keen eye, he noted its flexible yet formidable design, recognizing the potential threat it posed in close-quarters combat.

"Kaito seems to be decent at using his technique," Enishi mused inwardly, his interest stirred by the display of skill before him. Yet, even as he acknowledged Kaito's proficiency, he remained steadfast in his conviction of his own superiority, his confidence unwavering in the face of adversity.

With a calculated calmness, Enishi assessed the situation, weighing his options with a cool detachment. Though Kaito's whip presented a new challenge, Enishi remained undaunted, his focus unbroken as he prepared to counter whatever tactics his adversaries employed.

Meanwhile, Raiden observed the unfolding confrontation with a steely determination, his mind racing with strategic calculations and potential outcomes. Though conflicted by the need for distraction, he remained resolute in his commitment to the battle ahead, his resolve unshaken by the formidable opponent before him.
