173 Leviathan (2/2)

The normal beasts that didn't had strong capabilities or were offspring of the imitations like Kulaan. They always felt like they belonged to the universe they resided in. This was also why Broly only felt the aura coming from the strongest and original imitations.

Broly had some confidence that no one beside Zeno would be able to detect the differences of these creatures. His confidence wasn't something that came out of thin air. He had a vision coming from a multiversal civilization that far surpassed that of normal individuals.

In fact, he still didn't know why he could see the way he did, there wasn't a clue about it in the information he absorbed, and the guards didn't have an idea either.

The leviathan struck at Kulaan with one of its tentacles at incredible speed considering its size. Kulaan saw this and prepared an attack. His mouth was overflowing with black flames. Before the tentacle reached Kulaan, he fired his scorching hot breath.

The moment the black flame touched the tentacle, the fire expanded rapidly, covering a huge ground almost instantaneously. It quickly devoured the tip of the tentacle and left nothing behind in its stead.

The leviathan roared out in agony that shook the space around them. Broly even felt like his inner organs were slightly trembling because of the roar. If he was slightly affected the same couldn't be said about Kulaan. He was convulsing and his black face even looked pale, although it was only Broly's imagination.

Broly quickly shielded Kulaan from the roar's effects. As soon as Kulaan was better he directly dug into the whale that Kulaan had killed and ate its flesh. Kulaan became energized by the whale's meat and surprisingly even looked stronger and taller than before.

Broly didn't bother with Kulaan' feast anymore as he had turned his attention towards the leviathan that was warily starring at him. He could see the hesitation in its eyes. Broly couldn't help but grin as he now had the opportunity to test his strength but more importantly that of the sword. His ki suddenly flooded outside, creating a storm that swept numerous whales inside its whirl.

His body grew to 2.5 meters and his hair grew longer. He had turned into his third legendary state, however, unlike before his power wasn't only oppressive, but it now had an ethereal feel to it. He was using his ki coupled with his improved soul power. Broly unsheathed his sword form his back and the aura of absolute power assaulted everyone's senses.

He looked at the leviathan while raising his sword. Whales were uncontrollably flung around Broly and seemingly calling out to the leviathan. The leviathan had sensed the danger coming from Broly and fear could be seen in its horrific eyes.

It panicked and started to charge its attack. Its whole skeleton got visible for outsiders to see as it began to glow in a blue electrical light. The leviathan shot out a beam of purely destructive force that devastated everything in its path. Some unlucky whales were caught inside the attack and were directly disintegrated.

Broly calmly observed the situation. His hand flashed as it slashed downwards. The attack suddenly split in half, opening a clear view towards the leviathan.

The leviathan froze and due to its grand size, it took a while until one was able to see that the leviathan was heavily bleeding in a line that divided this humongous being in two. Broly didn't bother with the leviathan anymore as he looked at the triangle on the back of his palm.

The three sections that filled the triangle were glowing slightly with the red section being the brightest.

As he wondered what this might suggest, he felt his body getting stronger with a pure lifeforce being supplied. He instantly knew what just happened as he looked at the split leviathan that was withering away at a visible speed.

With his vision of truth, he saw that some of the dissipating lifeforce, magic and soul was being absorbed by the sword and into the tattoo.

Much was lost in the process, but every bit was additional strength to which he wouldn't say no to. Broly was ecstatic as he knew that with this sword, he could erase a being almost completely and absorb it into his own strength.

After killing the leviathan Broly took the whales with him. He told Kulaan to make them his subordinate. After a few weeks he may be able to command them and place them between the island and the rift for a safe passage that the elites would need to traverse.

He discussed some things with the others and experimented with his newly gained advantages before he entered back inside his universe. He figured out that the tattoo was actually invisible to the others and the sword seemed to have a similar effect, even though it wasn't as perfect.

Broly thought about how he could take the sword with him without leaking its presence to others. After the thought arose, the sword disappeared in a flash. He felt the tattoo tickle slightly, so he looked at it and saw a mini version of his sword inside the triangle right in the middle.

It was covered by the three colors and Broly guessed that it was being covered by the energies inside his body. After confirming with the others that nothing different could be felt from him, they took the elites and once again returned to their universe.
