Chapter 1065 Tai Tai No Sen
After Omega had taken out Kagura, the centerpiece of their team's battle formation with swift and precise attack, the team's overall prowess diminished by a huge margin.
Isshin's isolation barrier started cracking while Dosho's Buddha palms started disappearing, leaving them at half of their previous strength.
All of their hearts sank because now, they were drastically restricted in terms of the use of their skills.
"Good. Stand there like obedient children," spoke Omega menacingly and his image flickered.
Woosh!
Next, Omega's dreary figure, releasing an intense murderous aura appeared in the middle of the sky which was already filled with dark clouds and violent lightning bolts.
ROAARRR!!
Omega let out an ear-deafening roar that shook the nearby 5-kilometer radius while two sets of massive red eyes appeared above him.
As a result... the entire hero of space's party was paralyzed with shock and fear for their life.
[System, what ability is that?] asked Kahn.
[The subordinate Omega's awakened Fenrir bloodline has allowed him to merge the Lycan Tyrant's Roar and the Bloodlust skill to form a new Legendary Rank skill unique only to himself.
This ability is called Fenrir's Bloodlust.] reported the system.
[So he has unlocked his bloodline and evolved in a sense that even you could not allow him?
Looks like Omega has been training really hard during my absence.] thought Kahn to himself.
Meanwhile, even Ryuken felt a sense of threat as the tattoos of the divine tiger spirit on his hands started growling, raring to fight Omega. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yet, whether in the sky or ground, his allies were frozen and paralyzed in their respective spots, unable to move even an inch due to sheer terror running amok their minds.
Rumble!
The sky rumbled like a terrifying beast going berserk as Omega/Raiden raised both his katanas upwards.
In this radius, the party members were heavily injured and most of their bodies were charred black as the entire team was devastated from the attack.
Were they not high-ranking saints themselves with armors and attires with defensive powers, all of them would be facing a very dire fate.
Omega then spoke in a grim tone...
"Is that it? Just because I stopped you all from using your most powerful skills, you lot are already at the brink of defeat?
I even reduced the power of my dragonfire by two-thirds of its original strength." spoke Omega, seemingly disappointed.
"Let me tell you something... this is one of my most basic attack skills. I haven't even gotten serious yet." he declared in a kingly voice.
His cold tone sent chills in their minds and body.
Even Ryuken was having a hard time accepting the fact that this wasn't Omega's strongest skill but one of the most basic ones.
What Omega did just now was implement the 3rd strategy/method of forestalling the enemy taught to him by his master, Miyamoto Musashi... Tai Tai No Sen :
'When the enemy makes a quick attack, you must attack strongly and calmly, aim for his weak point as he draws near, and strongly defeat him. Or, if the enemy attacks calmly, you must observe his movements and, with your body rather floating, join in with his movements as he draws near. Move quickly and cut him strongly.'
In these three ways of forestalling, you must judge the situation. This does not mean that you always attack first; but if the enemy attacks first you can lead him around. From the start to this point, Omega had been leading his opponents around by their noses.
As the battle continued...
"Fine... I shall give you another handicap." said Omega in a playful tone.
Snap!
With the snap of his fingers, he dissolved the Howl of Chaos skill, and the 30-kilometer-wide radius was now filled with World Energy again, lifting the restriction on all of their bodies.
Now the Hero's Party was back at their full strength. Not only did they regain their original strength, but they also started healing very quickly, recovering from those fatal wounds at a visible pace.
However... this was not going to be the end of their nightmare.
Omega pointed Raijin at the fallen members of the Hero's Party as he spoke in a domineering as well as excited tone...
"Now, entertain me."
