Chapter 119: The World!
[Gauge: 70% -> 43%]
Isaac breathed heavily, his mask still on his face, on one knee as he struggled to move.
His muscles felt like jelly and every bone in his body was broken or completely shattered.
Additionally, a searing pain shot through his body, making him cough blood and place both hands on the ground to keep himself up, a result of forcing his gates open.Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m
Doing anything more than what he had might have caused the Thing to emerge.
However, upon seeing the sight before him, he didn't regret it one bit.
Upon the dust settling, the sight of Aizen laying in a crater, his eyes rolled back and showing all white, drenched in blood and his clothes tearing, revealing the heavy bruises on his body.
Despite this achievement, Isaac wasn't done.
Turning behind him, he locked eyes with Logan, who stayed in a trance, coming to his senses upon noticing Isaac turned to him.
"Do you know one of the reasons that drove Oliver to become a professor at Aurelius?"
Logan did not answer, still staring at the downed Isaac with the devilish mask.
"His first duty as a professor was going to be investigating and soon shutting down whatever is going on in Section Z. For you. Because of the story you told us."
Logan's breath came to a stop as his bottom lip slightly twitched.
"I'll be honest, I want nothing more than to do to you what I did to Aizen. I'm angry...I'm so pissed...but if there truly is a part of Oliver left inside of that body, how would he feel upon seeing us killing each other?"
Half of Isaac's mask slowly came undone as his pupils returned to normal, revealing his watery eyes as he put up a forced smile that looked like it would crumble at any second.
"So please..."
Isaac extended his hand, offering it to Zach.
"Let's end this."
Everything else seemed as though it had lost its importance, the only thing that seemed to matter being that hand extended toward Logan.
Logan stared at it, his eyes glued on it as he flinched a little, soon his hand moving upward.
"Seeping crest of turbidity. Arrogant vessel of lunacy. Boil forth and deny. Grow numb and flicker. Disrupt sleep. Crawling queen of iron. Eternally self-destructing doll of mud. Unite. Repulse."
Isaac's mask instantly returned as the boy snapped his head back.
"Fill with soil and know your own powerlessness! Black Coffin!!"
Aizen yelled while pointing his finger in the sky, barely on his feet with his back arches and hair dishevelled, gis expression failing to show its usually cocky self.
'How...I hit him with a full-powered Ko in my 5th gate while my tail drained his Reiatsu.'
Isaac thought. However, he wasn't given much time to figure it out as the surrounding area went dark, a familiar VUAM ringing out.
He tried to move his legs, but his healing was working too slowly.
'Shit, I can barely move. If he gets me with that...'
But before Isaac could finish, he caught something in the corner of his eye, making him turn.
Where Logan was standing, a black square with a purple hue manifested from the ground, far bigger than before.
"Zach!"
Isaac yelled, watching the white-haired boy look around, trying a way to get out while throwing a blood-lusted glare at Aizen.
"You were barely able to survive after the Coffin, bypassed your healing with spiritual attacks. What do you think will happen to him?"
Aizen taunted, gripping his abdomen as he wore a sinister smile.
'Come on, get up. Get up, damnit!'
Isaac yelled at himself, stumbling back down as he tried to force himself.
He was healing at a rapid rate, but not nearly fast enough to reach Logan in time.
Additionally...
[Status: Intense Hunger]
Partial Zombification was out of the question.
The Coffin grew at rapid speeds around Logan, and with seemingly no way out, he turned his head to Isaac who desperately tried to get to him.
Seeing this, in the next few seconds, the two of their eyes met as for once, without it being an act or a ploy, Logan smiled.
If these were his last moments, he didn't know what to say or do. He felt it was impossible to get everything off his chest in this short time.
And so, he hoped this smile would be enough.
"I think so."
Eli answered; he and Logan were standing side by side and facing Aizen.
"Logan, for what it's worth..."
A grin appeared on Aizen's face.
"...it was Xavier who was supposed to kill you once you'd outgrown your usefulness."
Logan glared, his eyes narrowing as he took a step forward.
-BANG
It wasn't long until they kicked off the ground, Logan's Kagune snapping into action and Eli followed by his stand.
-WHOOSH
Logan stabbed each of his tails at Aizen, and the latter dodged effortlessly as if all his fatigue and injuries had disappeared.
"THE WORLD!!!"
With this, Eli suddenly appeared from thin air behind Aizen, his Stand pulling back its fist.
-BANG
The fist landed as Aizen tried his best to block but to no avail.
Before he could shoot away, Aizen felt something crawl up his leg and looked down to see Logan's tail clinging to him.
-BANG
Pulling him, Logan slammed Aizen on the ground, raising him once again as he...
"What a spectacle. There's no entertainment more satisfying than watching monkeys perform in a circus."
"Eli, Zach!"
Aizen and Isaac watched as Eli and Logan fought against nothing, swinging their fists in midair.
No matter how many times Isaac yelled or even nudged them with his tail, they wouldn't snap out of it.
"You heard Merlin..."
Isaac turned his head, meeting Aizen's line of sight and seeing his expression as that of a rare seriousness.
"You, Isaac, are the key to this all."
Aizen raised his sword to shoulder length, gripping it in a reverse grip as Isaac narrowed his eyes in preparation.
"You are destined for more than hiding your strength in a city and school filled with lesser individuals. That is why you can't afford to be held back by weak earthly attachments."
Looking back to the two boys, with a heave, Aizen hurled his sword as if it were a spear.
But, to Isaac's dismay...the sword wasn't aimed at him.
Meanwhile...
"Zach!"
Eli yelled, gaining a nod from Logan as the latter picked Aizen off the ground, wrapping him tight in his kagune as he tossed him.
"ORA!"
Eli's stand let out a flurry of punches as Aizen...
"Zach!"
In an instant, the Aizen the two boys had been fighting had disappeared, instead, they turned their heads as they heard a desperate cry.
As Logan did, the first thing he noticed was a sword about to plunge him through his heart.
And just as this happened, the three minutes timer had passed.
