Raymond was stunned. Sofia was petrified.
It was not that they were scared but a blast of wind pushes them causing them to have such reaction.
Sofia eyes narrowed and Raymond punch the air in front of him causing the blast wave around him to explode to the sides
Spiraling wind gales flew toward the side, cutting stones and trees like they were paper and the wind is sharp swords.
Kaiju shouts create a blast that causes the wind to change and thunder to roar in the sky. Raymond saw the heavenly phenomenon that happened and the more he thinks about it, the more suspicious he became
He narrowed his eyes, looking at Kaiju like he wanted to confirm something
'I think I am right' he said to himself.
He heard what Kaiju said.
Raymond had never met Kaiju but he does know that around six months ago, after the event of the Multiversal Convergence, the Captain of the Soaring Sun Pirate, one of the Ten Pirate Lords was killed by someone.
This someone is Kaiju.
But that news is not something that ranks high in Raymond mind because the pirate and him steer out each other way.
Raymond is not wandering around the world relying on the name of the World Government and he has no intention of acting in official capacity.
Instead, he simply wanted to find his inspiration to forge his path forward.
He wanted to make sure that his path is correct and after truly understanding himself, he would break through toward the Divine Comprehension realm
Raymond had been roaming around the world this past six months. And yet, in this six-month journey, he never met any pirate lords.
One of the reasons is that the pirates does not want to forge enmity with him. The other reason is that Raymond travel incognito and he rarely goes to the Ten Seas.
But, even so, he has heard this name Kaiju before.
Sofia is also the same. She has many friends in the world and she is friends with many spies from the world powers.
But her knowledge of Kaiju is the same as Raymond. She knew that the Soaring Sun pirate change captain. But she didn't know it is a giant like creature like this man
And she certainly didn't know that he is this powerful. It reminded a bit of the powerful strength of Azief.
'If Sasha knows about this person, he would be in the Blacklist' she thought to herself.
Sofia immediately understood that this Kaiju is very powerful. In this world, only a handful of people could deflect her arrow.
As for someone who have body that could broke her arrows, she could count it with one hand. Kaiju is now only twenty feet away from them
Raymond saw that Sofia attack did not work
He looks at her and he said
'It's time to get serious' She understood what he means. Sofia simply did not use her full strength before. She did not think that she has to.
Sofia is not like Azief which could burst with explosive power every second of the battle. Her weapon is the bow and arrow.
It relates heavily to her concentration. Raymond could no longer wait
'Give it your all. Don't hold back. This thing is not human'
'What?' Before she could ask Raymond what he means, Raymond kicks the ground, dashing toward the distance of twenty feet in a burst of speed that broke the speed of sound in one second
Sonic boom bursted
Sofia face turns serious.
'I guess it is time.' Sofia retreated, leaving only dust and her afterimage.
Raymond clenches his fist, the ground around him become wavy like it is the sea. The element of the world seems to converge on his fist.
The speed is like lightning, the friction between him and the air seems to disappear around him, heat covers his fist.
Twenty feet traversed in a second.
And the punch forward
BOOOM!
The punch unleashed, a powerful explosion erupted, a twenty feet deep crater was formed, the dust surround Raymond entire figure.
But Raymond eyes is clear and his face shows no happiness.
He missed.
In that brief moment, Kaiju who looks like he would be slow with his weight moves almost in an instant.
All he could punch was his afterimage. The smell of heat around the area spread out all around but is drowned by the smell of scorched earth
'That's it?' the voice sends chills all over Raymond body. He turns back, to see Kaiju standing there.
'Earthshaker is only like this. Disappointing'
Kaiju clench his fist, the air exploded around his finger like he had compressed air around each and every part of his finger
BOOOM!
Shockwave exploded even before Kaiju makes any moves. The wind around him plucked out the grass and the blast causes the ground to splintered.
'HAHAHA!' he laughed and then he executed a powerful punch. Raymond also makes his move; an X block move is executed in front of his chest
The punch connected, the sound of broken bones echoes
All of this happens in the span of a blink of an eye.
BOOOOM!
Another sound of explosion echoes all over the area, another blast wave erupted, the ground exploded upwards, the clouds above dissipated.
And a punch landed on Raymond chest, the power of which created space tears and Raymond was blasted off one hundred feet away, rolling across the ground, smashing hills and large trees, crashing onto stony mounds and finally stopped
The dust around him made it hard to see where he crashed but a moment later, the wind blast that comes afterward, blows the dust away revealing Raymond
Raymond body was stopped by the banks of a large river.
A large trail could be seen covering one hundred feet distance between Kaiju and Raymond.
Raymond eyes is droopy but his eyes look toward Kaiju.
'Ha…Haa…Haaa..' he is panting heavily. His hand is trembling.
There is no obstacle of vision between them.
Kaiju punch has made his body become like a bowling ball that crush everything in this straight line.
Raymond coughed up golden blood, his armor falls down entirely, almost like it has vaporized. He looks down at his body and saw it is smoking.
The punch was so powerful and fast it created such powerful heat and kinetic energy that his armor that could withstand nuclear blast is almost vaporized.
His bones that are strong as diamond broken in many parts, his chest caved in, and some of the injuries that he seals has broken out of its seals, harming him even more.
'Four strikes' If there is anyone that watch the battle, unless they are of Divine Comprehension realm, they probably would be mistaken and think that Kaiju only strikes once.
But as the one that trade blows with Kaiju, Raymond knows that there is four strike.
The first strike broke his hand, breaking the cross hand block stance that he did. The second punches his face.
The third punches his chest and the fourth one is another punch toward his chest
All of this attack and strikes is done is such a swift and fast manner that it is hard to believe that someone so big and heavy could manage to do it.
And not only it is fast, the attack is also very precise. Kaiju targeted the same place for maximum pain.
But, he did not dare to stop.
Raymond even with all of these injuries, got up.
He looks toward Kaiju and smile. The smile is full of bravado.
Kaiju looking at this, smiles and his smile is wider.
'Hoh' there is a trace of amazement
'Stay down' Kaiju said.
Raymond spit to the ground, raise his clenched fist forward like he is about to box and simply said
'I could do this all day' Kaiju hearing this laughed.
'I guess you do have some guts'
Sofia in the distance look at Raymond and her face is not good.
'Shit. It doesn't look good. This Kaiju is even more difficult than I expected' Sofia seem to be muttering to herself.
Kaiju is not a Divine Comprehension leveler but the way he attacked Raymond so easily and so effortlessly, gives her the false impression that Kaiju is a Divine Comprehension leveler
Right now, she is in a hidden place but this hidden place could still see the battle
One of the requirement of becoming an archer is good eyesight. and for an archer that have magical power, their eyesight is even more powerful.
Even though there is hills and forest that block the view, her eyes could still see through it.
She is hiding but it is not because she was afraid. Because she is now pulling her bowstring.
She understood Raymond.
And she understood the plan.
There is a reason Raymond brought her here. It is to deter the Three Divine Comprehension leveler.
Jean knows who she is and he would give her face. Hikigaya might not be as affable but he also would give face to her.
Because the world knows who she is and what she means to Death Monarch. And with her here, Azief would not snatch the trident
Raymond did not hide this from her.
