"Could it be..." Hao Jiu suddenly thought of a possibility, "No matter the reason, we can't let him achieve his goal. We must destroy the knife he's trying to pick up first!"
"Good!" Xiang Yu is very fast now and can continue to attack Liu Xiu while destroying the sword. It's just that Liu Xiu will take fewer hits.
Click!
Just as Liu Xiu approached a ring-pommel sword, Xiang Yu swept it in two with a single halberd strike.
"Finally found out, but it's too late!" Liu Xiu smiled slightly, and at the same time sheathed the Wado Ichimonji, a ring-pommel sword appeared out of thin air in his free hand.
"Divine Skill: Hell Travel!"
Click click click...
The cracks spread from the handle to the tip of the blade, and then...
With a snap, the ring-pommel sword shattered, and a new one appeared in Liu Xiu's hand.
"Divine Skill: Fierce Tiger!"
Click click click...
Crack! Shatter again!
Hao Jiu and Xiang Yu finally understood what was going on: the opponent's moves consumed weapons!
"No wonder that guy was switching between three swords. I thought they weren't quite right for him, but it turns out those three swords couldn't withstand the wear and tear from the gravity skill." Hao Jiu cursed inwardly. In the One Piece series he had watched, Fujitora was always wielding the divine gravity sword when he first appeared, and there was no mention of the swords wearing out!
Although Xiang Yu was able to withstand the pressure from Liu Xiu's Hell Tribe and escape the gravity suppression range, his speed was very slow. Before he could even get out, the ring-pommel sword shattered first, and the Hell Tribe's skills automatically terminated.
In short, under Liu Xiu's repeated powerful attacks, Xiang Yu and Hao Jiu could only watch helplessly as the other side sliced off a piece of land and flew into the sky, followed by a series of shattered blades.
Violence...
An eagle in the sky was startled by Liu Xiu taking flight, and several of its feathers fell out.
Oh, or maybe it wasn't because they were scared by Liu Xiu, because bright spots appeared one after another in the higher sky.
"Divine Skill: Meteor Shower - Fire Sacrifice!" Blood tears streamed from Liu Xiu's eyes, but he revealed a victorious smile. It was the heavens' help.
"Oh no! A massive meteorite eruption has occurred! Xiang Wang, you must not let the Hell Tribe control it again, or all those meteorites will hit us!" Hao Jiu exclaimed in shock. Was Fujitora with the Gravity Blade really this terrifying when he went berserk?
Hell Traveler's attack range isn't very large, and it's not truly instantaneous, so it's still possible to dodge it. However, it's quite stealthy, and by the time you notice it, you've probably already been hit.
Xiang Yu's method was to move in a continuous and rapid direction, not giving Liu Xiu any chance. At first glance, it looks a bit like the "Shave" move in the Six Styles, but the principle is completely different.
Shave is an explosive force generated by stomping on the same point repeatedly, creating an effect that is almost like teleportation. Xiang Yu, on the other hand, stomped on the ground once, using the power of his domineering energy to enhance the muscles and achieve a critical strike effect.
The key is that there are stamina-boosting drugs, so Xiang Yu could not possibly feel tired or fatigued, and continuous jumping was not a problem.
Swish, swish, swish...
"Such fast movement speed!" Liu Xiu's head kept moving with Xiang Yu's landing point, trying to catch Xiang Yu by anticipation, but how could Xiang Yu let Liu Xiu see the pattern, or rather, there was no pattern at all, only a general trend, which was to get closer and closer to Liu Xiu.
However, even if the Hell Tribe cannot restrict Xiang Yu's actions, the meteorites summoned by Liu Xiu may still hit their targets.
Because this time Liu Xiu captured a cluster of meteorites in the sky. The meteor shower was no joke; there were a lot of them. If they were properly guided and arranged, they could all fall at the same time and cover a large area.
Finally, half a minute passed, and the meteor shower with its long tails crashed down.
In an instant, flames shot out, thick smoke billowed, and explosions resounded everywhere, as if the entire earth was trembling, enduring the apocalyptic judgment from the sky.
Boom boom boom...
Such an attack would be unbearable even for an army of hundreds of millions, let alone a million!
"God of Wine, this..." Even Xiang Yu, a veteran of countless battles and with unparalleled mental fortitude, was deeply shocked by the scene of such a catastrophe.
"No problem! I have a powerful move too! Come on, I'll admit defeat if you can hit me!" Hao Jiu said, then took out the Resentment Bead again, replenished some resentment, and his luck value was full again!
Chapter 284 The Decisive Battle of Kunyang (Part Twenty-One)
Kunyang's weather today: heavy rain turning to clear skies followed by a meteor shower.
Doomsday catastrophe is underway!
Boom boom boom...
Dozens of meteorites fell almost simultaneously, some even colliding and scattering into small pieces that filled the screen, igniting almost everything flammable on the ground.
Thick smoke and heatwaves filled the area, and the scene was extremely chaotic. Even if Liu Xiu hadn't been blind, he wouldn't have been able to find Xiang Yu in that area, or perhaps he had already been reduced to ashes.
After the last meteorite crashed down the city wall, the battlefield gradually returned to calm, but the thick smoke and fire still severely interfered with visibility and the search capabilities of Observation Haki.
Liu Xiu was certain that the other party was still in that area when the meteor shower fell. Even if he wasn't directly hit and turned into a charred corpse, he would definitely be seriously injured by the fragmented meteorites. However, he dared not be careless. What if he wasn't killed?
It's not a matter of chance; there's at least a 50% chance he won't die. We must find him as soon as possible; even if only his head remains, there's a possibility he could be resurrected.
Liu Xiu activated his Observation Haki to its maximum, searching for any living creature that was breathing.
"Found him!" Without saying a word, Liu Xiu immediately broke another sword and sent it flying.
The other party didn't respond!
Although he didn't die, he was covered in blood!
Is the healing medicine exhausted?
"Summon another meteor to finish it off." The system's voice was sweet, but the suggestion was really ruthless, and also very safe.
"Alright!" Liu Xiu didn't take any chances. Who knew if the other party would suddenly launch a sneak attack after he moved closer? He had already suffered two losses like this before, and he couldn't fall for it again!
"Divine Skill: Gravity Light!"
Click click click...
The ring-pommel sword shattered, and the gravitational waves drew a meteorite down from space.
Liu Xiu was somewhat listless. He had just been lucky enough to summon a meteor shower, but because he didn't have the divine artifact Gravity Blade, he suffered a backlash from the skill, overdrawing his mental energy. Even healing potions couldn't restore him in the short term.
This time, using gravitational waves to summon meteorites was a bit beyond my capabilities; it was practically a forced effort.
"It looks like Liu Xiu is at his last gasp." Hao Jiu really didn't believe that Liu Xiu could act like nothing had happened after unleashing such a powerful attack.
"Then let's stop pretending. He's being careful; he won't come any closer." Xiang Yu prepared to continue his attack. The effects of the Dragon Ball hadn't worn off yet, but there wasn't much time left.
Hao Jiu looked at the last ten healing pills in his hand and sighed, "Let's wait a little longer. We'll make a move when the meteorite is about to land. If the Dragon Ball's effect wears off, so be it. We can just eat more. We've already eaten two, why should we care about a third one?"
Besides, the effect of that Dragon Ball wasn't that great; the damage was excessive, and the speed boost was minimally reduced by gravity. In short, I could kill him without the Dragon Ball. Just charge at my command in a bit.”
Actually, Hao Jiu wanted to wait and see if anything unexpected would happen, because his luck value was still at its maximum. What if the meteorite fell and hit Liu Xiu off course, killing him?
As for the third Dragon Ball, Hao Jiu was just saying it casually; of course he cares!
Xiang Yu frowned. Although he didn't quite understand Hao Jiu's plan, the two had been working together for so long that they had a basic level of trust.
So Xiang Yu continued to rest in the meteorite crater, while practicing his domineering aura release, only releasing a small amount of domineering energy into the air to maximize the range of release.
But obviously, it's not that easy. Once the Haki energy leaves the body and is more than a certain distance away, it becomes completely undetectable. How long will it take to achieve the effect of Conqueror's Haki...?
After a moment, Liu Xiu's expression improved. "Could it be that the opponent has really exhausted all the healing medicine and is on the verge of death and unconscious? Otherwise, why didn't they take the opportunity to ambush me?"
"Perhaps they saw through your act, which is why they didn't move. The meteor is coming, Hell Journey can begin its extreme suppression. This time, we'll witness him turn to ashes with our own eyes," the system reminded us.
"In the final moments, let's use Wado Ichimonji to send him on his way, it'll be safer." Liu Xiu said, then gripped the hilt and scabbard with both hands and slowly drew the sword.
"Divine Skill: Hell Travel!"
Swoosh...
The person is gone!
"You were indeed faking your death! How despicable!" Liu Xiu was furious. He activated his Observation Haki to the fullest extent and instantly locked onto the other party's location.
If Liu Xiu hadn't gone blind, he should be able to see his own feet right now!
In just a moment, the other party had already rushed directly below him!
Liu Xiu was greatly alarmed and hurriedly flew away from the place. The reason he could roam freely in the sky was because he was not afraid of the moonwalking method of flight.
Each step of Moonwalk doesn't allow you to fly very far; no matter how fast you push off with your legs, your actual speed won't increase much.
As the opponent approaches using Moonwalk, Liu Xiu could easily apply gravity to press the opponent down from the air.
However, the only place where he couldn't do that was under Liu Xiu's feet, otherwise he would fall down with him!
"Die!" Xiang Yu's Dragon Ball effect hadn't worn off yet, and with a leap he was already in mid-air, not far from where Liu Xiu was, but he had already begun to fall.
Just then, Hao Jiu threw a stone out of his storage space. Xiang Yu used the stone as leverage to leap up, like walking on the moon, and instantly caught up with the fleeing Liu Xiu!
"Stop running!" Xiang Yu swung his Overlord Halberd and cleaved it in two.
Clang!
Snap! Boom!
The earthen flying device beneath Liu Xiu's feet shattered with a crash, and then Xiang Yu cleaved it away!
"Ah!" Liu Xiu cried out in surprise. In his haste, he controlled a large piece of gravel to fly out with him and stand upright on it, just big enough to put his feet down.
Xiang Yu, stepping on the remaining rubble, once again used the Moonwalk and Shave techniques to catch up with Liu Xiu, and then swung his halberd down again.
This time, Liu Xiu seized the opportunity to use his gravity skill on Xiang Yu. However, just as Xiang Yu fell a little, a stone suddenly appeared under his feet. He stomped on it and instantly escaped the range of the gravity field.
Then, using another stone as a stepping stone, Xiang Yu once again found himself directly beneath Liu Xiu!
Liu Xiu finally understood completely: the opponent didn't know Moonwalk or Shave at all; he was simply using stones thrown out of his system to jump in the air after his body had become strong enough!
But the opponent managed to achieve the combined effect of Moonwalk and Shave!
Click!
The stone beneath Liu Xiu's feet split in two again. Liu Xiu took one half and escaped, standing on it like a golden rooster standing on one leg, almost losing his balance.
But Xiang Yu had no intention of letting him go, and he became more and more skilled at using the Moon Step and Shave techniques, his combat talent was simply outrageous.
This time, Liu Xiuguang was distracted by maintaining his balance, and when he fired a gravity field, he didn't even manage to touch Xiang Yu's shadow.
Clang!
As the swords clashed, Liu Xiu fell off the small rock, and then...
"Ah! Ah! Ah!..." Liu Xiu screamed in terror, as if he had entered a state of weightlessness, kicking his arms and legs wildly.
Hao Jiu's lips twitched violently. No wonder Fujitora always had to ride on something to fly. "Xiang Yu, what a great opportunity!"
