The fight between Dan and Ivan intensified even further after Dan unleashed his destructive demonic power.
The blows exchanged were so powerful and devastating that everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.
The Emperor: What happens next will determine who prevails. Jin's heir possesses the fiery Phoenix Shura power and also a mysterious force unknown to anyone. (He smiles) Yes, the power of the ancient Imperial Dragon, Tenjin (Dragon of Destruction). But I sense another power emanating from him, like the power of an ancient, legendary demon. It seems they will soon make a move for him, as he will be their greatest threat. (The Emperor is referring to the gods.)
The Competition Spokesperson: What's happening is truly astonishing! What a powerful battle between Ivan and Dan Wataru! It's pure madness! Who will emerge victorious in the end? Dan thought to himself: Ivan Muto, you are truly dangerous. I will eliminate you with all my might, even if it costs me everything. Also, I have prepared a plan for that elf clan from the Jura Forest. The angel Lilith, the holy hero, the King of Belgrade, are setting the stage for their great annihilation.
Dan: Earth Magic, Body Enhancement (and Torres), Multiple Spiky Armor.
The Multiple Spiky Armor appeared from all directions, enhanced by Yellow Thunder Magic, and Dan began attacking Ivan. Their speed was incredible.
Everyone present was talking about the battle taking place. One said, "Dan, who will win?" and another replied, "Ivan, who will win?"
Dan: I admit it, you are the best. I underestimated you for too long, but Ivan Muto, you (making a triangular gesture with his hands) will be finished here.
Come on, you ancient, destructive giant, Bondard. (Dan has two giants: his own Yabuda, and his family's Bondard, the Wataru.)
Dan leaped onto the ancient, destructive giant, Bondard, and unleashed a barrage of spiked armor against Ivan, which began to launch at tremendous speed.
Ivan tried to block them, but then came the biggest trap: all the spiked armor exploded simultaneously.
Dan laughed: "Now I feel the pain you made me feel."
All the members of the Ninth Division were worried about Ivan because of the overwhelming force of the attack.
A heavy silence fell over what had happened.
The tournament spokesman: "Dan launched a devastating attack on Ivan, whom we can't see. What's happening? Has he lost?"
Dan turned to the rest of the division, challenging them: "Look, this is what will happen to you, you scum of the Ninth Division."
Naofumi angrily: "Hey! Don't you dare chatter like that!" The entire squad prepared to fight him, but in a truly legendary moment, a majestic aura shook the entire place.
Dan: What? Impossible! (Shocked).
A fiery magic circle appeared, bearing sacred writing. Yes, it was the power of the Fire Phoenix.
A roar of cheers echoed, chanting Ivan's name.
Ivan appeared in the center of the magic circle, flanked by the Fire Phoenix Shura, in a breathtaking display. Emilia was in disbelief.
Emilia: How is that possible?!
Alice Frankenstein: It seems this fight will be a long one.
Dan equipped the two giants and began attacking Ivan frantically, who was defending himself with increasingly sharp and powerful blows.
Dan was panting with exhaustion, and the demon who had made the contract with him was also lurking, waiting to claim his body and emerge from the ancient underworld (Hell).
Demon Dracula: Boy, you can't defeat him in this state.
Dan: Shut up! I will never lose.
Dan strengthened himself with his full power, augmented by Earth Magic and Yellow Thunder, to prepare his greatest attacks, combining them with the two giants and himself to become a colossal giant.
Dan: This is my final attack, boy. Ivan, prepare yourself. I have decided to kill you now. Demonic Fusion Magic, Duntera (Destructive Bomb).
Ivan prepared his swords, augmenting them with Fire Magic, and said: The Art of Two Swords, Rashon (God Cutter). The two attacks clashed, amidst great tension from everyone, but Dan was the most shocked as Ivan's magnificent technique overwhelmed him, cutting off his main attack and completely destroying it.
Dan: Impossible! I lost, impossible.
Ivan: That's right. I'm not finished with you.
He kicked Dan hard upwards, his face contorted with pain, then grabbed his arms and broke them as Dan screamed.
Then, Ivan punched him in the stomach, making him spit blood from his mouth.
Ivan: What happened, Yellow Thunder Boy? Where's your will you were so proud of? Or are you just a pawn in his hands? (Ivan looks towards the demon Dracula.)
He delivered his final blow, grabbing Dan's arms again and saying: Fire Tornado.
He crushed Dan in a spectacular fashion, leaving everyone stunned.
Speaker: What just happened is pure madness. Look, Dan Wataru is completely crushed.
The medics were about to intervene to help him when the demon Dracula's energy began to emanate from Dan's body. Dracula: Finally, after five thousand years, the moment of my return has arrived.
Emperor: Everyone out of the arena now!
Dracula was about to unleash a powerful attack, but Ivan used a fiery barrier to obscure what was happening inside.
Dracula: I understand. You're not human, scarlet-eyed boy.
Ivan revealed his true form: his silver hair, scarlet eyes, magnificent cloak, and the true shape of his swords. This was because Dracula's strength didn't allow him to fight directly in his disguise.
The Emperor tried to break the barrier, but it was no use because Dracula had decided to fight Ivan with his full power.
Dracula: Keeping the weak away from you is brilliant, boy, and your decision is wise. Everyone will think I used the barrier.
Emperor's Adjutant: Your Majesty, what shall we do? Will Ivan be alright?
Emperor: We'll rely on him. We have no other choice. Everyone's life is in danger if the demon comes out. Ivan uttered a legendary statement: Ivan (with a terrifying look): "This is better... A demon like you, possessing energy that has lasted for five thousand years, will be a special and perfect meal for them." (He was referring to the black dragon Balerion and also Shura, the fire-bird phoenix.)
Dracula: What did you say?
The clash between them began with immense power, felt by all the holy heroes, as well as Sebastian Clarke and his organization.
Sebastian Clarke: I see. So, you appear, Dracula. I wonder who you are fighting?
Egon: A top-ranked demon. And who is his opponent? He possesses an enormous magical aura.
In the Celestial Kingdom, an angel was heading towards a certain room. He knocked on the door and said: "My God, Zosen, the heir of Jin has appeared in the Kingdom of Union. What do you want us to do?" In a powerful and majestic scene, the legendary leader of the gods, Zosen, ruler of the Entire Realms, appeared.
Zosen: Do nothing. Let us observe his development. In the end, he will be my new vessel. Zosen appeared in his majestic divine form, smiling, and said: "The perfect body." Finally, he appeared. Jane, you did well. No matter how hard you tried to hide your last heir from me, in the end my special vessel will mature and then he will be ready.
