"Hanging blade formless white"

Walker blade ejects from his scabbard akin to firing a high powered bullet from a rifle's chamber. purple hollow energy traces leak out, following needle sized strings formed all around his blade. 

 Adam, not having a full amount of time to react, sees the blinding light flash in his eyes for but two seconds, Then Boom! He comes crashing down falling through another area within the black star ship gapping maw landing on a large pipe that dwarfs him in size. 

Blood gushes out from his chest across to the top of his right shoulder. 

His mind goes dizzy and everything feels like the world is falling in on itself, infact he's only felt a sword attack with this level of swordsmanship once before against man named wandering swordsman.

"Gah!". He lets out a cough of blood using the silent step to muffle his hollow energy signature, dashing into one of the nearby rooms to hide for few seconds. 

Walker, noticing the drop in hollow energy presence, immediately he goes into a defensive stance again his blade sheathed back into its scabbard. while building up his hollow energy again to use another "formless white". 

"Where are you, ya lil shit!, I'm not gonna be waiting for much longer, I'm gonna begin slicing through all these nice people you've been trying to keep away, so you better decide on being a hero and get out to face me now!." Walker screams out with tone of cold malicious intent. 

Adam in one of the rooms nearby finishes healing via self restoration.

it took much longer to heal by a few seconds due to the attack strength. 

Taking out his white & red hand cannon from his holster, Adam quickly loads up three orb rounds into spinning the chamber then readying it for fire. 

Bang! Bang! Two shots ring off zipping out a dark hole in the room made by Adam earlier when he entered in it, Bang! Then the third shot rings off following after the first two. 

Walker in the distance senses the traces of hollow energy, Boom! Bap! One hits the roof above Walker head manifesting a large picture frame that ripples rapidly Changing sceneries until it comes upon painting of oceans. 

The Second orb, Following through after, hits a wall nearby about 25 meters away from Walker radius its shifts between colors of black,blue,green and then the color of orange smashing into and bursting with energy as multiple Adam's appear in simultaneous fashion all running at the mad swordsman. 

The third shot is a deep blue color. it splashes onto the ground towards the mad swordsman, creating a freezing effect of over 100 meters in the area. 

Using this moment, Adam activates burst flow once again, propelling himself 

over the freezing Cold ice shards that are washed across the ground. 

" A Head on attack ain't too smart now boy." Walker tone meticulous. 

"Let me cut you down in one fell… before he could utter another word Walker leapt into the air with instinctive precision. 

He realized that the two orbs fired earlier weren't just for show but means to push him away from the main population bit by bit, while bein wary of what's around him, shortly after the clones that Adam summoned earlier from his orange orb mirage surround Walker, all using burst flow within the air simultaneously aiming and gesturing their hands in the motion of finger guns. 

Walker feels the hollow energy spark building up from 15 Adam's all pointing around him and knows that this attack will deal hefty damage, So thinking on the fly & forming a simple but straight forward plan he'll tear through them before they can get any attack off. 

1 2 3… and Now the second formless white that he had been charging since earlier in the fight was fully outputted and in less than 0.001 seconds in 360 degree circular motion, the blade swings out cutting through the entire two upper levels and splits open a large chuck of the planet sized ship. 

Adam seeing this massive output of power, in the same instance as the blade slash is careening through the air getting ready to cut into the area, he utilizes the yellow orb to time stop the full effect of taking out the rest of black star ship. 

The yellow orb covers third,fourth and roof level of the entire black star ship, freezing the attack in place and stopping any more damage that's already occurred & haulting all motion. 

Walker notices this yellow space cover his slash quickly turning towards the main Adam after the 15 that were around him were swiftly cut down. 

"You're one quick little bastard". Walker resheathes his blade as multiple strings start emanating off his body and wrapping around him create a suit of stringed together razor samurai armor made of his trigger ability, he calls this transformation "sky splitter". High amounts of hollow energy radiates off his body, his eyes still partially covered by bandages & his hands calmly on the hilt of his sword ready to tear through everything in front of him. 

Adam's senses a powerful occurrence coming from walker, realizing he can't hold back too much power but also not wanting to endanger the others. He decides on gamble without second to waste, he dashes forward his eyes now sparking with strong hints of golden energy, he echoes out " partial manifestation" strange and intricate tattoo markings of golden color wave over the right side of his body, with half golden crown floating over above his head & single butterfly wing.

bursting out from the back of his right shoulder blooming with immense hollow energy now flowing out of his body, dropping his knees down close to his chest with both feet kicking off the air instantly again through burst-flow Adam flies straight towards Walker, accelerationing thousands of times greater than sound itself moving at immensely high hypersonic speeds. 

Boom !! Boom!! Boom!! 

Each use of burst flow causes precise thunderous sonic booms around the area. 

Adam aims & gestures his hand into finger gun motion 25% output testament magnifeco.. with these silent words muttered inwardly; adam blasts forward a condensed beam of his golden hollow energy akin to shooting a high caliber sniper. stretching out into 110 meters of length targeted at him. 

Sou! Thoom! Clang! 

Whizzing through air, 40 meters away from the shots initial release, Walker quickly reacts to incoming sniper attack sensing the build up of hollow energy present; pulling up his blade in vertical motion diverts apart the beam splitting it off partially and diverting it to wall nearby while the rest of the beam digs into the initially layer of his armor causing slight damage. 

Pulling back both arms and raising them over his head, he swings in downward motion the blade slicing through air like a cloud, strings begin wrapping around his blade once again, hollow energy pulsing through each thin razor line. 

 Swoosh! Clang!!

The blade flies down, clashing with the partial manifestation of Adam's butterfly wing, it expands, forming it into a massive golden hand that blocks the blade's initial attack making a deep cut through hand reinforced skin. Golden weaver wing whilst still covering the front of his body glows with brightly shining golden hue, under the hands cover Adam thinks of a plan on what he can use to pull away Walker from this black star ship effectively.

I'll need to bring him into an alternate space.. using one of my imagination orbs being the maroon one picture crash, alright I got my idea.. without letting a second pass him up, pulling his wing as it reshapes into a five fingered hand that fires off more condensed beams of golden energy from its finger tips, pressuring the mad swordsman to hopefully ether bait a dodge or go to use another move. 

Due to his natural instinct & intuition coupled from thousands of battles over his years of fighting and surviving Walker quickly steps backwards few feet away from Adam, sword now sheathed within the scabbard his eyes constrict whilst darting between different routes he plans to gain a leverage over him. 

Razor overheat.. Hazonoki shoots out a thick tensile rope made of bounded strings from his palm, his blade whips around towards Adam at high speeds greatly exceeding speed of sound so much so that the whip burns up from sheer friction excusing absurd amounts of heat causing it to spark yellow flames. 

The whip slashes across two different diagonally directions creating a X-formation its heat sparking explosions through the air aimed directly for Adam's chest and two arms. 

Adam third eye splits open vertically atop the hunter head peering into the ripples of cause & effect; he sees the outcome of what will happen if doesn't dodge or defend against the attack. Now following through on his gamble he extends his right arm outwards his index finger pointed directly at Walker. 

Picture crash 25%output.. maroon colored orb fires out from his hand expanding almost at the same speed of when he fired that finger gun shot from earlier, forming into a large human size picture frame, pulling his right arm down with exerted force he captures Walker bringing him into the alternate space successfully. 

Picture crash sends the two of them into a mountain range of grandiose size, Adam lands on one of the nearby mountain peaks while Walker lands directly opposite of him blade already unsheathed and readying to strike; twisting his left hand into reverse grip motion & right hand lowered down by the blades hilt at the bottom with his right index finger pointed outward, sword-god purity style: bloom of thousand cuts.. muttered under his breath the hollow energy around him builds up rapidly and the oncoming feeling of an occurrence nearing. 

A combination of lunges and diagonal strikes using both grip alternations in rapid succession of each other he builds up even more hollow energy then he had a moment ago using the initial iai stance as misdirect for bounty hunter. 

After the sixth sword strike came diagonally towards Adam, released all at once was a blossoming explosion of 1,000 compressed slashes, each one blooming outward in a spiraling lotus pattern cutting deep into his body 

and blood gushing from every conceivable orifice around his body . 

Bleeding out from the top of his body to the bottom, the young bounty hunter thinks fast on his feet using combination of two different abilities, one is his complex configurum which creates 1,000 human sized drone to continue taking the brunt of the thousand slashes released onto him & second ability 50% output thought barrier.. one of his main aces utilized in combat against powerful opponents; creating a field around himself warping the rest of the blade slashes away from himself and bending them back to fire at Walker whilst giving time to use self-restoration to deal with the damage. 

Seeing the slashes fly towards him he bounces between mountain peaks watching as the cuts cleave & level multiple country side mountains ranges through like butter against a hot knife. 

After few seconds split between the clash of attacks. the swordsman's looks around for young bounty hunter as he's noticed his hollow energy signature spike then disappear from the moment he was bombarded with those drones he had sent out, teleporting right after he got immediately cut from his sword technique, where is this boy… he can't have gone far in this place especially with the fact this ability still in function.. thinking inwardly to himself while still moving around walker picks up his hollow energy signature immediately bolts with haste to where he sensed the boy. 

As he moves towards the area he quickly realizes that he begins feeling more of the same hollow energy signature and in the blink of an eye above him coming in a torrential mechanical tsunami. waves of drones drop down onto walkers each one either punching, kicking , or stabbing into him with wrist mounted blades. The onslaught of attacks don't let up and continue stacking upon another not leaving him any room to breathe or fight back as best he wants to. 

Clan! Clang! Clang ! Clang clang ! 

Echoing sounds of metallic parts grinding and clashing against each other to get at the swordsman's doesn't stop, in between the drones Adam pulls up his right arm lining it up & Aiming right around Walker right upper shoulder testament magnefico adjust.. Instead of a condensed sniper beam firing off in that instance a massive output of hollow energy swirled around his finger tip expanding then contracting outward in range of 100 meters in front of him. 

Wanting him to believe this, Adam had formed idea from beginning of the fight to lead Walker on with his sniper shots thinking that he'll only place at a distance from him and not attempt to go for anything mid to close range. 

attack lands right onto Walker body due to its sheer volume and the initial assumption of him not noticing until it expand onto him, force of the finger gun shot knocks him into side of a mountain half of his body is heavily damaged & parts of his Samurai armor are now broken such as the right shoulder pad and left gauntlet as well large chunks of the chest piece. bandages wrap around his face come unraveling with blood trickling down from his head, breathing in & out almost rhythmically. 

Adam across the other side of the mountain range staring at him, reloads

his hand cannon with two orbs, cocking the trigger back readying to aim. 

Bang! Bang! 

Two shots are fired off one after another, Adam dashes forward with burst flow giving him an added boost of relativistic movement speeds, whilst still maintaining his thought Barrier another flurry of walkers string blade attacks go off due to him setting up traps similarly to the bounty hunter. Bundles 

of razor sharp strings ripple across the Barrier of Adam warping around it. 

The two orbs from earlier land one hitting the mountain Walker still standing on, its color is light reddish hue, making contact it immediately shrinks in on itself crushing the mountain instantly taking away the samurai's footing causing him to instinctively use burst flow to create footholds in the air. quickly unsheathing his blade, in upwards motion, hollow energy strings trace behind & holding his sword with both hands, grip firmly around its hilt swings down with immense force, compressed air slash fired towards Adam. 

In Split-Second the yellow orb burst open splashing and covering the 100 meter radius in front of him, freezing the air slash walker released in its completely momentum for 10 seconds.
