As Kaito and Shin launched their coordinated assault on Enishi, the battlefield crackled with tension, the air thick with anticipation as the two warriors sought to breach their opponent's defenses. With a calculated precision born of years of training and experience, they moved in unison, each strike aimed with deadly accuracy as they sought to gain the upper hand in their duel against the formidable Enishi.
With a swift and fluid motion, Enishi turned slightly to his left, his four arms moving with ridiculously fast speed to intercept Kaito's blow and Shin's jab. His upper and lower left arms deftly blocked Shin's attack, while his upper and lower right arms intercepted Kaito's strike, effectively neutralizing their combined assault with effortless ease.
"You don't deserve to fight me," Enishi declared, his voice carrying a hint of disdain as he effortlessly countered their attacks. With a quick flick of his wrist, he unleashed three slashing strikes aimed at both Kaito and Shin, the razor-sharp edges of his attacks slicing through the air with deadly precision.
Kaito was sent hurtling backward, his body propelled by the force of Enishi's blows, while Shin felt the sting of Enishi's attacks as they cut through his defenses. Despite the severity of their injuries, Shin remained undaunted, his resolve unshaken as he quickly healed his wounds with a display of remarkable resilience.
"I assume you were saying that to Kaito," Shin remarked, his voice calm and composed despite the chaos unfolding around them.
"Of course," Enishi replied, his expression unreadable as he surveyed the battlefield with a cool detachment. In that moment, it was clear that Enishi viewed Kaito as little more than an annoyance, a mere obstacle to be overcome on his path to greater glory.
As the battle raged on, the clash of Enishi and Shin echoed across the battlefield, a testament to the fierce determination of those who fought upon it. With each passing moment, the stakes grew higher, and the fate of those involved hung in the balance as they continued their struggle against the relentless onslaught of their adversaries.
As Kaito observed the ongoing clash between Shin and Enishi, he couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at him. Despite his best efforts to steel himself for the battle ahead, doubts crept into his mind, casting shadows over his resolve.
Utilizing his Enes and the Life Enes, Kaito focused his energies on healing his injured arm, his mastery over blood clotting manipulation allowing him to accelerate the process with practiced ease. With each passing moment, the pain subsided, replaced by a renewed sense of determination as Kaito prepared himself for the challenges that lay ahead.
"As long as I don't suffer the same injuries as back in Shibuya, I should be able to fight Enishi," Kaito thought to himself, his mind racing with strategies and contingencies as he sought to find a way to overcome his formidable opponent.
However, as the battle raged on, Kaito found himself grappling with a difficult decision. The prospect of unleashing the full power of Altharion, the ancient entity that resided within him, loomed large in his mind. But doubts clouded his judgment, as he weighed the risks and consequences of such a drastic course of action.
"Should I let Altharion take control and fight Enishi?" Kaito pondered, his thoughts swirling with uncertainty. "But, he was holding back in Shibuya and still defeated us..."
Even as he contemplated the possibility, Kaito couldn't shake the nagging suspicion that Enishi, too, had been holding back during their previous encounter. The prospect of facing off against an opponent of Enishi's caliber filled him with a sense of trepidation, as he grappled with the daunting task that lay before him.
"Even if Altharion was, for some reason, unable to go all out... Enishi was holding back, too," Kaito mused, his brow furrowed in concentration. "Ugh... Should I do it when I get pushed to my limits and can no longer fight?"
As Kaito wrestled with his inner turmoil, Shin found himself on the receiving end of another powerful blow from Enishi. Despite the force of the attack, Shin remained steadfast, his resolve unbroken as he weathered the storm of Enishi's onslaught.
"Heh, that was a good blow," Shin remarked, his voice laced with a hint of admiration for his opponent's skill. Despite the odds stacked against him, Shin refused to back down, his determination unwavering as he prepared to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
As the battle continued to unfold, Kaito knew that the time would soon come for him to make a decision. Whether to unleash the power of Altharion and risk everything in a bid for victory, or to continue fighting on his own terms, trusting in his own strength and abilities. But for now, all he could do was watch and wait, as the clash between Shin and Enishi reached new heights of intensity.
As Enishi and Shin engaged in their intense hand-to-hand combat, the air crackled with anticipation, each blow exchanged between the two combatants sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield. Enishi, with his four formidable arms, moved with unparalleled agility and precision, while Shin, despite facing an opponent of superior strength, held his own with remarkable skill and finesse.
As Enishi dashed towards Shin with ridiculous speed, the sheer force behind his punch threatened to overwhelm his opponent. However, Shin's keen reflexes allowed him to evade the attack with grace, swiftly countering with a well-placed jab that caught Enishi off guard. The impact of the blow sent Enishi staggering backward, a rare display of vulnerability from the normally invincible warrior.
"You're not half bad," Enishi conceded, his voice tinged with a hint of respect for his opponent's prowess. Shin, undaunted by Enishi's praise, remarked, "You could have used your left arms, but I assume you were too overconfident."
Enishi's expression hardened at Shin's words, a flicker of annoyance crossing his features. "You like talking a little bit too much," he retorted, his gaze narrowing as he prepared to resume their duel.
Shin, however, remained composed, his focus unwavering as he addressed Enishi's underlying reluctance to unleash his full power. "Surely, you realize that this fight will not end until we use our Enes and not just hand-to-hand combat, right?" he pointed out, a note of challenge in his voice.
Enishi's smirk widened at Shin's declaration, a glint of anticipation dancing in his eyes. "Is that what you want?" he inquired, his tone laced with a mixture of amusement and curiosity.
"I don't mind fighting you in full power," Shin replied, his own Enes reserves beginning to surge as he prepared to unleash the full extent of his abilities.
As Enishi assumed a more aggressive fighting stance, his aura of Enes reserves expanded, casting a towering shadow over the battlefield. Back in Shinjuku, Ayame and Haruka observed the unfolding spectacle, their expressions betraying a sense of amusement at Enishi's reluctance to unleash his full potential.
"Enishi is still holding back," Ayame remarked, her voice tinged with a mixture of fascination and amusement.
Haruka chuckled softly in response, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. "I know," he replied, his confidence in Enishi's abilities unwavering as he awaited the outcome of the clash between Enishi and Shin.
