Batibat anticipated Yaotl's attack and successfully dodged the incoming wooden sword aimed at his head. Without missing a beat, he seized the opportunity to retaliate and lunged at Yaotl with his rapier, hoping to inflict a significant blow.
The tip of his rapier made contact with Yaotl's body, but the wound it caused was not deep enough to pierce any of the vital organs.
Yaotl was quick to react, and with one of his hands, he extended his razor-sharp claws in an attempt to intimidate Batibat and keep him at bay.
The Jaguar Man was aware of Batibat's fighting skills, and he knew that he had to be cautious to avoid any more injuries. The claws on Yaotl's hand glinted menacingly, ready to strike at Batibat's unprotected areas if he made a wrong move.
Yaotl's attempt to hit Batibat with an upward slash was met with another quick dodge from the blind swordsman.
Despite the agility of his opponent, Yaotl kept pressing on with his erratic and powerful strikes. Batibat had to rely on his superior sense of hearing and reflexes to avoid each and every blow that was directed at him.
The battle between the two men continued for several more minutes, with each of them trying to gain an advantage over the other.
Batibat managed to fend off most of Yaotl's assaults by using his wooden sword to parry them. However, the obsidian edge of Yaotl's blade did manage to inflict a few dangerous scrapes on Batibat's arms and shoulders.
After a few more exchanges, Batibat finally saw an opening and lunged forward with his rapier. The blade managed to penetrate Yaotl's guard and inflicted a wound just above his waist. However, the rest of Batibat's attacks were prevented by the sturdy wooden sword, which Yaotl wielded with great strength and skill.
Despite the wound he had received, Yaotl continued to fight on, his jaguar-like reflexes and supernatural strength allowing him to keep up with Batibat's every move.
Batibat acknowledged that carrying a sword different from his current one would have been advantageous for him in the ongoing battle with Yaotl.
However, his preference for using his rapier and parrying blade in combat was too strong, and he only resorted to other weapons in exceptional circumstances.
As Batibat continued to fight, he noticed that Veronica's twin sabres, which she had drawn at the start of her fight with Orcus, were lying on the ground nearby Veronica's body.
He realized that these sabres would be much more effective against a heavy weapon like Yaotl's Xocoyotl wooden blade than his current weapons.
Though Batibat did not take up the twin sabres at that moment, he filed the thought away for future use. He continued to fight with his rapier and parrying blade, using his supernatural senses and honed skills to avoid Yaotl's attacks and counter with his own.
However, Batibat's obsidian blade did inflict some dangerous scrapes on his opponent, proving to be a formidable weapon in its own right.
In an attempt to gain an advantage, Batibat resorted to a simple but effective strategy of kicking rocks and dust towards Yaotl. The cloud of dust blinded the Jaguar Man, causing him to retreat backwards to avoid it.
Taking advantage of this momentary blindness, Batibat quickly sprang to his feet and vaulted over a pile of bricks, aiming to reach the twin sabres lying a few meters away from Veronica's body.
As Batibat got closer to the sabres, he noticed that the dust cloud was dissipating much quicker than he had hoped for. Realizing that he might not have enough time to escape with the swords, he leaped towards the ground, sliding forward to grab them.
Yaotl, however, was quick to react and managed to leap over the dust cloud, landing on the other side with his wooden sword raised and ready to strike at Batibat.
Despite being in a disadvantageous position, Batibat was determined to make use of the swords to gain the upper hand. He picked up the sabres, taking a quick glance at them before readying himself for a counter-attack. Meanwhile, Yaotl lunged forward with his wooden sword, attempting to strike Batibat with all his might.
Batibat quickly grabbed the twin sabres and crossed the blades in front of him to create a defensive barrier against Yaotl's attack. However, the Jaguar Man's strength was too much for Batibat's defense, and he managed to break through it and strike Batibat with his wooden sword.
Despite his blindness, Batibat's enhanced senses allowed him to sense the incoming blow and try to evade it while maintaining his guard.
But it was not enough as the wooden sword landed on Batibat's shoulder, causing the bones to dislocate painfully. While Batibat suffered from other wounds, the dislocated shoulder was the most agonizing at the moment.
The pain was unbearable, and Batibat had to grit his teeth to avoid crying out in agony. The injury also limited his mobility and made it challenging for him to fight effectively. Batibat knew that he needed to find a way to end the battle quickly before Yaotl could land another blow.
As the pain became too much for Batibat to bear, he let out a terrible scream that echoed through the air. Unlike his previous companions Little Rouge and Orcus, who had succumbed to their wounds without much of a sound, Batibat was unable to suppress his agony.
