"I have some items in my storage space that haven't been affected by weightlessness. Just take them out and place them on Xiang Yu, and they will fall naturally. If Xiang Yu is interested, he can also take this opportunity to practice his Moonwalk. Just kick the air hard, like Liu Xiu did before."
Hao Jiu suddenly felt that he was a real genius, even thinking of this method. No matter how amazing Fujitora was, he couldn't possibly make the items in the storage space weightless.
Xiang Yu's eyes lit up. "Then I'll try out what it feels like to walk on the moon."
At this moment, Liu Xiu closed his eyes and slowly walked towards the direction Xiang Yu had flown away. At the same time, he drew the empty scabbard from his waist, held it in his left hand, and changed his right hand to grip the sword in a reverse grip.
A pair of invisible eyes quietly appeared on Liu Xiu's tightly closed eyelids, curiously observing Xiang Yu in the air.
"The height is about right, huh?" Liu Xiu paused.
"Wow~ You've already learned Moonwalk so quickly?" the system exclaimed sweetly.
Above, Xiang Yu flew down from the sky, alternating between stepping on the air, mimicking the movements perfectly.
"To actually use Moonwalk to counteract weightlessness, he's truly a talent. In that case... I'll lend him a hand." Liu Xiu sheathed his sword. "Divine Skill: Gravity Chaos!"
Xiang Yu, who was experiencing moonwalking in the sky, suddenly lost his weightlessness and began to fall normally, then suddenly accelerated and crashed into the ground!
If Xiang Yu hadn't done something at that moment, he would have landed face-first, at a height of only fifty meters, plus dozens of times the gravitational acceleration!
According to the anime's setting, it's possible to smash a circular crater in the ground, and there's usually a human-shaped hole inside the crater.
In the blink of an eye, the Overlord's Halberd suddenly appeared in Xiang Yu's hand. He then gripped it with both hands and thrust it into the ground. The instant it touched the ground, Xiang Yu exerted force with both hands to grip the halberd shaft, flipped over, and landed on his legs first with a thud, firmly assuming a horse stance!
"Wow~ Xiuer, you'd better keep it up!" came the system's sweet voice of encouragement.
Liu Xiu frowned slightly, then drew the sword a little further from its sheath. "The name Xiu'er is not suitable for me. Please call me Uncle Wen from now on. Divine Skill: Hell Journey!"
"Xiang Yu, be careful. If you see this guy waving a knife around, he's about to unleash a powerful attack." Hao Jiu thought to himself, "That's strange. Is Liu Xiu too immersed in his role? Why is he keeping his eyes closed the whole time? Is he cosplaying Fujitora?"
Having just finished healing his wounds and stood up straight, Xiang Yu suddenly felt immense pressure. Even with the Overlord's Halberd supporting him, he was almost crushed.
creak creak creak...
Xiang Yu clenched his teeth, feeling as if the bones in his body were about to shatter, but he stood firm.
However, the ground beneath his feet had collapsed, and his legs sank deeper and deeper...
"Hold on, Xiang Yu! His move is an extreme gravity strike from top to bottom. If you stand up straight, the area affected by the force will be smaller, and you'll be less injured." Hao Jiu grinned. It really is a cycle of karma. No one escapes the wrath of heaven. Not long ago, Xiang Yu planted Liu Xiu in the ground, and now it's his turn.
However, Liu Xiu only experienced simple pressure and impact, while Xiang Yu experienced extreme gravity. No one has calculated exactly how many times the Earth's gravity it was, but it is estimated to be around a hundred times the gravity.
Gravity not only puts pressure on bones, but also makes it difficult for blood to flow upwards to the heart, putting considerable pressure on various organs.
Every cell in Xiang Yu's body was under immense pressure, experiencing and pushing the limits of human endurance. The pain was indescribable.
Physical strength is one aspect of resisting this force, but more importantly, it requires willpower and an unwavering determination to die rather than yield!
"Xiang Yu, there will be even greater pressure the moment he sheathes his sword. If you can withstand that blow, this attack will be over. Then, act according to my command. Sigh, if only Xiang Yu could unleash his domineering aura, we wouldn't have to go through all this trouble." Hao Jiu remembered that Zoro had once fought Fujitora and used his flying slash, the Phoenix Sword Qi, to break through the gravity suppression.
"Unleashing domineering power... It'll be soon." Xiang Yu's eyes widened in anger. After fighting Liu Xiu for so long, he had long wanted a ranged attack technique, even more so than flying.
Xiang Yu used all his strength to mobilize the domineering energy within his body to protect himself and resist the damage from gravity. Hao Jiu also kept feeding Xiang Yu fragments of healing medicine to maintain a balance for the time being, waiting for an even greater challenge.
"Hey, watch out for the knife! This isn't the divine gravity knife." The system's voice was still as pleasant as ever, but it carried a different kind of emotion.
"Anyway, I only need one sword from now on. You wouldn't agree to switch back to Zoro, would you?" Liu Xiu sensed Xiang Yu's state and had to admit that this opponent was really tough.
boom!
The ground around Xiang Yu sank down, forming a circular pit about half a meter deep. The relatively soft soil on the surface was completely compacted, and the ground under Xiang Yu's feet was compressed to be as hard as stone.
Click! Click click click...
Liu Xiu frowned deeply; cracks had appeared in the knife in his hand, and it looked like it was about to shatter.
"It's time to end this battle. You are a respectable opponent, but unfortunately, we are destined to fight to the death. I will properly bury your minced flesh. Hell, open the gates!" As Liu Xiu spoke, he suddenly sheathed his sword, and then...
A deafening roar!
The circular ground where Xiang Yu was standing suddenly collapsed, and he was instantly pressed into a bottomless pit by gravity!
roar!
Chapter 281 The Decisive Battle of Kunyang (18)
Fujitora's Hell Journey technique truly feels like experiencing a journey through hell; it's incredibly powerful.
However, this move also has its drawbacks. The extreme gravity field is within a circular area, where it attacks indiscriminately regardless of friend or foe, and it is a continuous skill that can be interrupted.
During the unleashing of his ultimate attack, Hell Tribe, Fujitora was basically unable to move, except for the final burst of power when finishing the attack.
Of course, the Hell Traveler's attack is already quite powerful, capable of creating a deep well-like crater with a gravitational field. Such force could crush a person into a pie or grind them into powder.
The setting of anime is so confusing. Soil and rocks can crumble and collapse at will, but when they fall on people, they can basically keep their bodies intact, or even just be injured but not killed.
However, this plane is not the same as the anime plane. The ground is not so fragile, and the power of the Hell Tribe is terrifying to the extreme. If Xiang Yu hadn't been taking healing medicine all the time, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold out until the Hell Tribe's final burst of power.
Boom...
A deafening roar shook the earth!
An eagle soaring in the sky almost fell off, and locusts frantically devouring crops in the surrounding fields were startled and took flight in swarms.
This is the terrifying power that makes all things tremble with fear, a hellish journey where the sky collapses and the earth caves in!
Under normal circumstances, the surface soil layer of a plain is covered by sand, and below the sand is rock. A large amount of groundwater is stored in the gaps between the sand and the rock. If the pressure is high enough, squeezing out this water can cause the ground to sink tens or even hundreds of meters.
The final burst of power from the Hell Journey instantly elevated the existing extreme gravity to a new level. This power, when fully unleashed, was enough to crush even the most powerful opponents, turning them into a pile of minced meat.
But Xiang Yu was no longer just a formidable opponent; he was an opponent with superhuman abilities!
At the most critical moment, under the pressure of a hundred times the gravity of the Hell Journey, Xiang Yu spun the Overlord Divine Halberd rapidly, while simultaneously activating his domineering protective aura to its fullest extent.
Then Xiang Yu burrowed into the rock like a nail, and that was the solution Hao Jiu came up with.
To counteract the powerful gravity, one only needs to be stronger than the soil and rocks beneath one's feet. Simply applying downward pressure from gravity will only cause Xiang Yu to keep moving downwards.
After swallowing ten healing pills in an instant, Hao Jiu felt a pang of heartache, but the effects of the medicine did not disappoint him. Xiang Yu ultimately survived the massive outburst of the Hell Tribe.
Moreover, those who survive a great calamity are bound to have good fortune in the future. Xiang Yu's domineering level was soaring after that that he broke through to the Profound Realm!
The Overbearing Mystic Realm can not only greatly enhance the defensive power of the Overbearing Aura Body Protection, but also release the Overbearing Aura to attack and sense enemies, or infuse it into weapons to enhance their attack power.
During the latter half of his burrowing, Xiang Yu was already able to unleash a small amount of domineering aura to clear a path downwards. By the end of his hellish journey, Xiang Yu's domineering aura had reached a distance of half a meter.
However, Xiang Yu has only just stepped into the threshold of the Profound Realm. His domineering aura cannot yet be released from his body for attacks from a distance. He will need to practice for a period of time before he can truly possess the power of the Profound Realm of Domineering Aura.
"Finally, I've broken through!" Xiang Yu was overjoyed; the feeling of becoming stronger was just too good!
"Don't be too happy yet. We haven't defeated the powerful enemy. Let's hurry up and make some preparations. He'll be down soon." Hao Jiu came up with a plan.
Fujitora's Observation Haki is very strong, allowing him to sense distant places, making him more perceptive than a normal person despite being blind. However, he probably cannot sense the depth of this well, which is over a hundred meters deep, making it a perfect opportunity for an ambush.
On the ground, Liu Xiu frowned. Just a moment after he fell in, he seemed to sense that the opponent's divine weapon had moved. Could something have gone wrong?
"Xiuer, stop thinking about it. Go down and take a look. If the target system survives its weakened state and burrows underground, it will take even more effort." The system's voice was still sweet, but it couldn't hide its excitement.
Liu Xiu switched to another black sword, and with two swift strokes, he sliced off a piece of the ground beneath his feet. The sword then slowly floated up, forming a miniature floating island that carried him toward the center of the deep well before gradually descending.
At this moment, the dust in the deep well had not yet settled, and occasionally there were sounds of gravel falling and colliding from above. The deeper one went, the darker it became.
Of course, for Liu Xiu, it made no difference whether there was light or not; he couldn't possibly open his eyes. Don't ask why; the answer was that he would blind himself.
It is fortunate to be able to not see anything, for there are far too many filthy and despicable people in the world that are unbearable to look at!
Yes, this is Fujitora Issho's character setting. He is a righteous person, but he lives in a dark world.
As for Liu Xiu himself, he truly wanted to open his eyes to the world, but he couldn't, and even if he did, he wouldn't see anything. It wouldn't be unreasonable to say that this was the price he paid for gaining immense power.
Fortunately, his Observation Haki allows him to 'see' everything around him like a normal person, only without color.
Finally, Liu Xiu reached the bottom of the pit and saw fragments of the enemy's armor and clothing on the ground.
"Damn it, the opponent might not have had a weakness period at all. Luckily, I sealed off the dimension in advance..." The Good Voice System was a little unhappy, but the next second she had no time to be unhappy.
Because a sharp, gleaming light suddenly burst forth from the stone—it was Xiang Yu!
Not only were they not crushed by the Hell Tribe, but their strength actually increased!
Clang!
Liu Xiu reacted instantly, blocking the attack, thanks to his Observation Haki.
Xiang Yu's lips curled slightly, and a domineering energy instantly emanated from the Overlord Divine Halberd, like an extended blade of the divine halberd!
Once a weapon is infused with Haki energy, it can be considered part of the body; however, Haki cannot leave the weapon to injure enemies from a distance.
puff!
Blood splattered!
"Ugh..." Liu Xiu groaned, beads of sweat instantly dripping from his forehead. That was close! He almost lost his head again!
As granulation tissue proliferated and repaired the wound, Liu Xiu drew his sword and retaliated, unleashing a divine technique: Gravity Suppression!
As Xiang Yu was being pursued, he suddenly felt the intense pressure of gravity again, which was no less than the pressure of the first half of the Hell Journey. However, Xiang Yu was now a powerful expert with the domineering aura of the Profound Realm, and after experiencing the Hell Journey, his body had adapted to the multiple times gravity.
Therefore, even under the pressure of gravity, Xiang Yu was still able to wield the Overlord's Halberd to counterattack, and this time the range of his domineering aura was even greater!
Xiang Yu had gradually mastered the art of projecting domineering aura during the battle, which greatly boosted his confidence.
puff!
Another wound!
Puff puff puff!
Injuries upon injuries, one after another!
Liu Xiu never expected that Xiang Yu's strength had suddenly increased so much, and that he could even use sword energy!
But I have even given up my sight in order to gain power, how can I be defeated by him?
"Divine Skill: Gravity Blade - Fierce Tiger!"
Liu Xiu had been using Armament Haki to withstand the attack for so long, and this was the ultimate move he had been holding back. He accumulated gravity in his sword and swung it out, while simultaneously releasing a huge horizontal gravity along the trajectory of the swing. Moreover, it was a chaotic and intertwined force, essentially using gravity to knead and tear his opponent.
pain!
The excruciating pain forced Xiang Yu to use his domineering aura to envelop his entire body in defense, temporarily slowing down his offensive.
Liu Xiu seized the opportunity, flipped over and jumped onto a huge rock, and flew up. At the same time, he slashed at the air with his sword, and the stones and other objects on the ground flew up and smashed towards Xiang Yu.
