The significance of fire to humans is unique.
There was even a time when many people regarded the mastery of fire as a turning point for humanity, completely differentiating humans from other creatures.
Even in some myths, there are legends of fire-stealers, saying that fire was stolen from the gods.
But was humanity truly the first creature to master fire?
-It's hard to say!
In 1969, the Saturn V was launched. That most powerful carrier rocket in human history lifted humanity's gaze from the battlefield of earth, where creature had fought creature for who knows how many years.
The formula for the thrust generated at that time was not exclusively mastered by humans.
A small insect called the bombardier beetle possesses similar, and in some sense, even more advanced jet propulsion methods.
Many people might not know the bombardier beetle, but this insect has a common nickname-the "farting bug"!
This small insect, which is not large in size, has evolved a jet system inside its body that occupies two-thirds of its frame, a system that could even be called "black technology"!
This small insect's body has two organs for storing gases, holding hydroquinone and hydrogen peroxide, respectively!
The organ connecting these two contains two enzymes!
Namely, peroxidase and catalase!
When this insect wants to "fart," the raw materials and the two enzymes inside it immediately combine, resulting in an explosion that erupts from its jet port!
This eruption can generate temperatures over 100 and vaporize one-fifth of the 'liquid bullet' to produce high pressure!
Furthermore, this attack also contains corrosive benzoquinone!
In other words, in addition to the high-temperature physical attack, its assault also includes a corrosive poisonous attack!
Finally, topped off with that foul, lingering odor!
If such things are hidden within a small insect, imagine a dinosaur, which is in some sense one of the evolutionary pinnacles of terrestrial life!
For these animals, in a way, body size is indeed the key constraint on their development!
Take, for example, the species known as the mantis shrimp.
Their eyes are much more advanced than human eyes, and their hammering club can strike at speeds exceeding that of a bullet underwater!
If their size were not so small, but as large as a dinosaur, it would be genuinely hard to say who would eat whom between them and the dinosaurs.
Animal evolution is very strange.
A significant portion of them have evolved functions that still qualify as black technology or cutting-edge technology even for modern humans.
Therefore...
It seems not entirely incomprehensible that a dinosaur at the pinnacle of evolution can breathe fire.
However, according to Nanami Mamoru's initial thought, this type of jet propulsion, which involves inhaling a large amount of gas, should logically fire from the back, not the front!
Firing from the back is more scientific!
Just like an improved version of the bombardier beetle's jet system!
But regardless of whether its fire-breathing method is scientific or not, the current scene is a set fact.
"Jaden!"
Erina looked at Jaden, who was instantly engulfed by the flames, her brow furrowed, her eyes filled with worry, and she instinctively called out his name.
At this moment, the others said nothing about Erina's soft call, as-their attention was entirely drawn to the scene on the screen!
The significance of fire to humans is unique.
So, humans deeply understand the lethal power of fire.
And Jaden...
Just as they were all entertaining various thoughts, the drone's sound capture system on the screen instantaneously picked up a sound... something like a machine gun firing, but cleaner and crisper than a machine gun!
With that sound, the Super Tyrannosaurus's exhale immediately stopped!
Flames no longer spewed from its mouth but continued to advance along the heat wave it had emitted, moving further and further away from it.
As the flames moved past, Jaden's figure darted out from the far side of the fire.
He was still holding his previous straight punch stance, but it was clear he had already thrown the punch!
His blood-soaked hands were in a stance, one guarding and one set as if having just struck, though the blood on his body had been dried by the flames, and his clothes were scorched black, mostly gone!
However...
Apart from his clothes, Jaden only appeared to be slightly smoked!
-Even his hair and eyebrows were just singed a bit, not burned off!
It was as if the flames could not incinerate his body!
Nanami Mamoru's eyes widened at this sight.
"How is that possible!?"
Following his exclamation, the people around him began to feel uncertain.
"Could it be... this is the legendary immunity to water and fire..."
"Impossible!"
The person had just opened their mouth when Nanami Mamoru denied them.
"The Super Tyrannosaurus being able to breathe fire might be due to special organs in its body storing different gases, but immunity to water and fire... that's impossible, that's unscientific!"
He said this aloud, but Nanami Mamoru's voice grew softer and softer.
Because now even he couldn't be sure if everything before his eyes, this battle, could truly be explained by science.
But in any case, he kept muttering "impossible," looking like his worldview had been shattered.
He was like this, and others also held different interpretations of the scene-but everyone's faces were filled with surprise and disbelief.
They were unclear what had just happened within the flames.
Hence, their guesses became increasingly outrageous.
In reality, while the event was indeed outrageous, it was not as they imagined!
After the flames arrived, Jaden was simply attacking constantly, nothing more!
For him, breathing fire was just a move used by his opponent; since it was a move, it was only natural to meet it with another move!
Super Mach Punch and Tempest Kick-
Such attacks were constantly thrown out by Jaden even in a state of exhaustion!
He preemptively pushed the air; the trajectory of his punches and the path of his kicks were calculated to be just right. So, if there were a drone right next to Jaden at that moment, it could have filmed a miraculous scene!
Fire... this substance of extraordinary significance to humans, after completely engulfing Jaden, still could not get close to his body!
Only the body hair on Jaden's hands and the trousers on his legs, and the shoes on his feet, were burned away by the high temperature due to their excessive proximity to the flames!
Such power was nothing short of a miracle!
However, at this moment, even Jaden had beads of sweat forming on his forehead, and his breathing was slightly more rapid.
He looked at the Super Tyrannosaurus, which he had approached and hit directly on the lower jaw with a punch, forcibly stopping its fire-breathing. As the surroundings cooled down a bit, he took another breath, turned his hand into a thrust, and plunged it toward the dinosaur's throat!
Puff!
Blood sprayed from the wound he had pierced.
But Jaden felt something was wrong!
Because...
He couldn't pull his hand out right away!
The huge Tyrannosaurus was now looking down at Jaden, and then-its massive body began to shrink!
Since Jaden's penetrating hand was still stuck in the creature's neck, he could fully feel its muscles changing!
The dinosaur's mud-like muscles began to contract inward!
This caused the already gigantic Tyrannosaurus to shrink by two size classes!
Feeling this, Jaden quickly exerted force to pull his hand out. The Tyrannosaurus in front of him immediately opened its mouth and, following the trajectory of Jaden's retreating hand, snapped down on his arm!
Its teeth were all gone, but its biting force remained!
Though its biting force was greatly reduced without teeth, it was still an incredibly terrifying amount of power!
It still vividly remembered Jaden's previous attack that had taken its teeth, so it didn't dare to bite down on too much of Jaden, intending only to fix the position of the opponent and incidentally restrict one of his claws!
This way, being toothless actually made it harder for Jaden to pull his hand out!
And during this process, the huge Tyrannosaurus was still shrinking!
Jaden could only activate his Tekkai (Iron Mass), using this technique to resist the Tyrannosaurus's biting force!
The Tyrannosaurus was not surprised by this.
Its goal wasn't to take one of the limbs of the creature before it, but merely to fix its position!
Its body shrunk by about five size classes; it looked as if its skin was glued to its bones before it finally stopped!
The muscles tightly compressed beneath its skin were still partially twitching with its heartbeat, looking incredibly bizarre, yet anyone could sense the power contained within!
Jaden's fist then struck the Tyrannosaurus's head.
He tried to make the creature release its bite, but it showed no intention of letting go!
Jaden's "God-Slaying Strike," gathering power from half his body, sent the creature staggering backward a significant distance, but even so, it didn't release its bite. Instead, it dragged Jaden with it, pulling him directly from the coast into the woods!
And during this process, its tail-which had become more flexible and sturdier, like a steel whip, due to the shrinking-swept directly toward Jaden's head!
Jaden's Observation Hakisensed the attack.
He instinctively wanted to dodge, but the creature used the head biting Jaden's arm to exert force, directly stopping Jaden's movement, and then snapped its tail across Jaden's face!
Slap!
The immense sound was like a steel whip striking air, and the crispness of the noise was enough to prove the speed of that attack.
Raina Kure, who was watching the battle, slowly frowned.
If it were him, taking such an attack would certainly cause considerable damage, and a few more times, even he couldn't withstand it.
But that bastard Yuki...
His thought stopped there, and Jaden on the screen reacted.
His head was whipped to the side, but he didn't even daze. He immediately flew a kick directly to the creature's throat, destroying its intention to inhale and breathe fire again. He then snapped his head back and landed a punch on the Tyrannosaurus's head!
At this moment, Jaden...
Had a streak of blood at the corner of his mouth, and a red mark on his face.
But...
-He was laughing wildly!
"So that's it. You want to use this method to end the fight, don't you? Although I don't know if it's intentional or instinct, it doesn't matter."
"I won't lose-I won't lose in any format!"
"If you want to play, then come on!"
"I... will see this through to the end!"
