An Intermediate level of Hawkeye's strength was truly formidable.
The flying slash Ryuu unleashed slammed violently into the ocean of azure light, threatening to carve through the energy just as it had done before.
However, right at that moment, a dangerous gleam flashed in the behemoth Vaccine Man's eyes. The blinding blue light within its massive jaw exploded with even greater intensity.
Row after row of jagged lightning discharged from its maw, instantly stacking and merging into the vanguard of the energy wave.
VROOM—!
Under the crushing weight of this overwhelming, dense concentration of power, Ryuu's emerald crescent slash suddenly creaked under the pressure before being completely shattered by the swarm of plasma!
Without losing a single ounce of momentum, the cascading wall of lightning continued its relentless descent, poised to swallow both Ryuu and Fubuki whole!
Sensing the incoming cataclysm, Ryuu's eyes narrowed. In a swift, decisive motion, he scooped Fubuki up into his arms and vanished from the spot.
Swish!
With a burst of high-speed movement, Ryuu successfully carried Fubuki out of the blast zone, leaving the ground they had occupied to be vaporized.
Seeing them dodge, Vaccine Man let out a hideous, booming laugh. "Hahaha!!! Do you finally comprehend the absolute majesty of my power, you wretched human?!"
The moment its laughter subsided, its face contorted with pure malice. It raised one of its massive, trunk-like legs and slammed it violently into the earth!
BOOM—!
Accompanied by a deafening tremor, an unbelievable sight unfolded before them!
