Chapter 84: Breakthrough (2/2)

Ed summoned Gobuta and Goburou. Raikou also came out of his shadow. Ed wasn't going to fight his father, who was now at Immortal Establishment alone. This sparring was also a way for both of them to know how much Ed had improved.

Arthur was stunned looking at the new monsters. Both of them were as strong as Ed and were releasing a threatening aura. ”You're getting stronger” Arthur was happy seeing the monsters. But, his breath stopped for a second when they withdrew their weapons. Although their weapons were only Epic quality, they were made by Ed who was a master blacksmith. Making them much better than other weapons of the same quality.

Both parties took their stance and started fighting. Arthur suppressed his power to Earth Establishment level 6, only two levels higher than Raikou who was now level 4.

Ed made the first move and rushed ahead with his Ren in full activation. His speed was astonishing, surprising even Arthur. Both of them clashed swords for a couple of times, sending shockwaves around the room. Ed's companions were providing him with support, while he handled the main fight. Ed's abilities were greatly enhanced with his Ren, making him able to fight equally with Arthur who was suppressing his power.

However, it was only thanks to his monsters' support. Arthur noticed that they Ed was still not fighting seriously, so he increased his power to Earth Establishment level 10. Ed felt the increase in power and activated his Sharingan, Rysui Seikken, and En. This was the only way he could react to Arthur's movement speed. He was also using Ren in this state.

Ed and his companions were basically helpless even when using their full power. Only Raikou could handle Arthur somehow in his powered-up state. Arthur was only using a normal saber, but his abilities made him capable of handling it in a miraculous way. Ed was forced to use all three of his swords to be able to handle Arthur's swordplay.

Ed also used Shunpo while increasing its speed with his Spectral Shadow Steps. In this way, his speed was actually equal to Arthur's. This was an achievement no one in King Establishment could achieve, other than Ed. Raikou also used his lightning clad, while Gobuta and Goburou used Ken, maximizing their aura amount in their feet. All four of them were able to keep up and put some pressure on Arthur in this state. But, it wasn't long until they were fatigues due to using so much of their energy.

”You've greatly improved again, Ed” Arthur very proud. Although the academy was interrupted, Ed's improvement was worth it. ”But what is that power you used? It feels very familiar.” Arthur was referring to Nen.

”I wanted to talk to you about that, father.”
