101 To dust you shall return (1/2)
”DO YOU THINK I WILL ALLOW ANY OF YOU TO BE KEPT ALIVE AFTER THIS?” Im asked while gazing at Izan. He slowly stood up from the throne he was sitting on.
The clones moved and went by his side. In total right now, Im was standing in the middle of 10 clones. And all of them were staring at Izan like he was their mortal enemy.
”I don't have time to squander.” Izan mocked Im before slowly walking on the air towards Im. Each of Izan's steps were the same length apart, Izan is able to control his body to such a level that he can do this without thinking of it.
But even strong people as Whitebeard, Garp, Dragon, Shanks and Mihawk couldn't control their bodies to such a degree as Izan.
Izan reached out his right hand and flickered his wrist and grabbed the scythe that appeared in front of him. ”There is no need for any of us to speak any further. Your existence is like a bug, whereas my existence is like a plague for you. Now all that is left to do is to fight and see who is the last one standing.” And the moment Izan finished speaking he started running towards Im with a great speed.
The 500 meters distance took only 0,2 second for Izan, his scythe was already in a sweeping motion towards Im's neck.
Im wasn't an easy target for it to work. Im was already prepared and blocked the incoming scythe with his long and slim sword. The sword seemed to be rather old yet it also seemed very sharp.
*Clang!*
Both Izan's scythe and Im's sword didn't move after the clash. Their Conqueror's Haki was released and it ruptured the air around them.
A grin appeared on Izan's face as he coated his scythe in Armament Haki and used his Observation Haki. He wanted to use everything he has whilst fighting Im, he wanted this battle so he could improve himself.
And as Izan started using his Hakis, Im also did the same. The two coated weapons clashed against each other with unimaginable speed and such a huge force behind them too.
Craters were made beneath where they were fighting. The ground trembled and the air seemed to rupture with the constant clashing of the two.
And as Izan was occupied with fighting Im, he could sense someone ambushing him. Izan hastily stepped to his left while tilting his head backwards.
Two incoming swords stabbed towards where Izan stood at. There were two clones that ambushed Izan.
But that wasn't all... Izan blocked an incoming sword attack from the original Im before using his left hand to swipe the clone behind him. Izan was holding his scythe in his right hand to block Im's fierce attacks while he moved around to avoid attacks and using his left hand to block attacks he couldn't avoid.
Izan didn't know for how long he has been fighting, perhaps only two minutes in total, but he had already drops of sweat running down his face as he had to use all of his concentration in this battle.
He could have asked Jiutian or Defying to deal with the clones, but he didn't do so as he wanted to push his limits! This was his opportunity to become stronger, and he wouldn't miss it no matter what! Because he knew that this was barely the starting point and things would get much worse in the future!
”Comeon!” Izan roared as he pushed Im back with a kick to his stomach before spinning around with his scythe. And in the motion he did so, his scythe cut through the bodies of two clones at once.
Izan's mood was pretty good right now, but he suddenly felt a pain going through his back before he felt himself being sent flying away.
Im had used the moment to brutally kick Izan's spine, wanting to make him a crippled person. In Im's mind, the only challenge in taking this world was – Izan. The clones could deal with the others. A sneer slowly appeared on Im's face, but he couldn't help but to snort when he saw Izan standing up from his attack like nothing had happened.
As Im thought, Izan really didn't care about the attack towards his spine. His physical body was very strong, even to the point of being much stronger than Kaido's body.
Izan started grinning while gazing at Im and his clones. ”It seems like that you have to work harder if you want to beat me.” After mocking him, Izan began running forward with a cold glint in his eyes. Even if the attack didn't harm him greatly, the attack still did bypass his Hakis, which pretty much meant that Izan was still lacking!
The remaining 8 clones and Im began surrounding Izan once again and started attacking Izan from all sides whenever there would be an opening.
While they were fighting, the people watching nearby couldn't help but be baffled by the sheer power and strength Izan and Im is showing off right now.
