Chereads / Heavenly Swordsman: World Redux / Chapter 22 - Rivu Aiasan [2]

Chapter 22 - Rivu Aiasan [2]

A Kappa lunged towards the group of four, however it was shot through the chest by Keyati, shattering its core and causing it to fade away. Keyati cocked her shotgun again and looked back to Kei-Kei, Shintawa, and Dasizai.

Keyati: "Go deal with the big one. I got these damned Kappa."

Dasizai nodded, Kei-Kei and Shintawa following suit, beginning to run down the body segment of Rivu Aiasan that they were stood on. As the three ran, more Kappa appeared before them. Shintawa charged ahead of Kei-Kei and Dasizai, crossing his blades over his chest and leaping up into the rain filled air.

Shintawa: "HEAVEN PURGER!!!"

Shintawa crashed down with his Heaven Purger, successfully dicing a large amount of Kappa. However, more of the turtle like Yo-Kai kept coming. Kei-Kei punched one with his free left hand, the incantation with the Dakuenaji in the fist blowing the head clean off, followed by a stab through the core.

Some of the Reiryoku from the Kappa flowed into Mochi, causing the blade to surge with Kami no Chikara separate from Kei-Kei's own.

Kei-Kei: "Woah..."

Kei-Kei smirked, cutting through several Kappa quickly, even punching a few of them. More and more Reiryoku gathered in Mochi's blade until the entirety of Mochi's metal edge began glowing gold. It shined bright in the rainy environment and with a slash, aimed at a Kappa, a giant explosion of Kami no Chikara occurred, destroying the rest of the Kappa and even slightly damaging Rivu Aiasan's scales.

Rivu Aiasan let out a loud roar and began moving again. It dove into the water, the body segment that the four were all on quickly whipping around, launching Kei-Kei, Shintawa, Keyati, and Dasizai into the air, multiple Kappa flying up after them. Keyati was pretty far away from the other three and closest to the Yo-Kai, still shooting the Kappa.

However, then Rivu Aiasan's tail fin came up, smacking Keyati and then Kappa into Kei-Kei, Shintawa, and Dasizai. Kei-Kei noticed whilst they were falling and his eyes widened.

Kei-Kei: "Is Keyati flying towards us-"

Keyati's head crashed into Kei-Kei's, both of them continuing to fall. They Kappa with their weak bodies had already faded away, being killed by Rivu Aiasan's tail. All four members of the group crashed into the water, Kei-Kei and Keyati having a far less grateful landing than Shintawa and Dasizai.

Then, Rivu Aiasan's head lunged out from beneath them. Kei-Kei and Keyati regained their senses after the head bump, looking down the God Class Yo-Kai's throat. Keyati pulled a grenade infused with an Exorcist Talisman, throwing it in then grabbing Kei-Kei.

The grenade blew up, knocking Kei-Kei and Keyati to the right of Rivu Aiasan's head. Also knocking Shintawa and Dasizai to the left of it. Rivu Aiasan didn't flinch at the explosion, crashing back into the sea. Its body segments rose to the surface again, allowing the four to land on them.

More Kappa jumped from the water, coming for all of them, however more Kappa went for Keyati and Kei-Kei. Dasizai noticed that and grabbed Shintawa, tossing him over to them.

Shintawa: "Hey what the hell!?"

Dasizai: "Help them out, I'll handle myself."

Shintawa nodded, landing near Kei-Kei and Keyati with a Heaven Purger. Dasizai flung off his jacket and pulled up his shirt, revealing three seals on his chest, something he had only done against Barahoshi. And much like that, Dasizai was ready...

Dasizai: "Seal Breaker!"

With that incantation, Dasizai freed from within himself, Okami. His eyes changed from brown to red, his canine teeth enlarged, nails sharpened and blackened, and his dyed black hair, which was already fading from the rain revealing his white hair, changing a light blue. Parts of his hair forming into wolf ears. A female voice emerging over Dasizai's.

Okami: "What the...ah."

Okami raised a hand, the sharpened nails that were once Dasizai's extended and got sharper. Reiryoku from Okami and Kami no Chikara from Dasizai mixing in the claws. Doing the same with the other hand, Okami lunged forwards.

Okami: "Bestial Slaughter!"

Quickly with several swipes, most of the Kappa around Okami were sliced and destroyed. However, a large quantity of bubbles came from beneath the water and a large Kappa came from it. The lily pad like extension that surrounded the scalp larger than the other Kappa. Its claws larger, its beak sharper. And overall, it seemed an advanced specimen. A Kappa Ao.

It lunged towards Okami, however its larger form made it easier for Okami to dodge, hitting the Kappa Ao with another Bestial Slaughter. However, it was bulkier and more resistant to the attack, regenerating quickly. Okami smirked and opened her mouth wide, focusing Reiryoku into it.

Okami: "Wolf Queen Bomb!"

A ball of Reiryoku fired into the Kappa Ao, exploding on contact. The large Kappa jumped from the smoke at Okami, regenerated and angry. Okami scratched off one of its arms and swiped at the side of its body.

Okami: "Haunted Claws."

The attack left a large scratch on the shell of the Kappa Ao, the bulky Yo-Kai roaring in pain. It landed and quickly grew its arm back. However, the mark left by Haunted Claws did not regenerate. Okami cracked her knuckles and jumped up high into the air.

The Kappa Ao looked up and with a great burst of power, launching its massive mass into the air after Okami. The Yo-Kai puppeting Dasizai's body extended her claws and maneuvered in midair to crash down, Kami no Chikara and Reiryoku conjoining together.

Okami: "Let's end this you fat Kappa."

The Kappa Ao roared and put water around its claws, preparing a great slash. However, Okami quickly shot directly through the center and shell of the Kappa Ao. A weak yell coming from the Yo-Kai's throat as it faded away.

Okami landed with grace. She looked to Kei-Kei, Keyati, and Shintawa, who were still fighting some Kappa. Okami got on all fours and began rushing towards them, then she sliced through all of the Kappa.

Okami: "So, Dasizai brought the same people who fought that Oni with him huh? How in anyone's mind you ended up here is perplexing."

Kei-Kei: "Dasizai?"

Keyati: "No you idiot. Dasizai has Yo-Kai sealed in him, he unsealed some for different purposes. He already unsealed her before against that blood fucker!"

Kei-Kei: "Oh yeah."

Shintawa noticed Rivu Aiasan's body beginning to move again, the rumbling as they all slowly lost their footing being quite easy to sense.

Shintawa: "We don't have time for this little chat right now! The damn thing's moving again!"
