Yuria used the claw on his arms to climb up to the yacht and he looked extremely miserable. He was in an all-black attire and had a short knife which looked like a short fish bayonet held tightly in his hand. He looked like he had his fair share of experience in handling a knife.
As he managed to stabilize himself just for a moment, T-rex raised his hands as two machetes were unsheathed while he ran towards him.
Thud thud thud. The low pitched footsteps gave off an anxious vibe as its pace increased.
He crossed his machetes as she swung at Yuria, drawing two cold light in the air.
Yuria panicked as he rolled out as he attempted to evade the machetes.
"Too slow!"
Then, he relaxed his mind. Galouro had reminded him that this strange robot was the one that was ordered to capture him and his sister before he came to this place. As this robot had just caused a bloodbath, killing and leaving behind between fifty to sixty corpses in the scene, he had already viewed this killing robot in front of him as an extremely evil person.
"Pierce!"
The bayonet-like short knife pierced forward without mercy.
The knife came in contact with the opponent's abdomen and it tried to pierce into T-rex's abdomen. It was only then Yuria realized what he had done as his body moved and executed such a cruel technique on its own. He could not help but feel shocked as he loosened his grip.
Clank!
Unfortunately, while the tip of the knife had indeed came in contact with T-rex's abdomen, it was blocked by the extremely tough shell on his body and the damage was no more than a small white scratch. Instead, the huge recoil that came from the defense almost made Yuria let go of his short knife.
"Fool!" T-rex said as he revealed half of his mocking expression on his face. Although his movement was not fast, his arms were very agile as the machetes came striking down from above.
Boom!
He stared at the machetes striking the yacht's rail guard, cutting the metals in white paint into half. His enormous strength sent the debris flying about everywhere. Some of the debris landed on Yuria's body, causing him to flinch.
"He has such a high defense and strength!" He swiftly took a few steps back to distance himself away from him. It was fortunate that the yacht was larger than usual as it was a middle-size boat that could accommodate dozens of people. Hence he had enough space to move about freely.
"Is this all you got?" T-rex sneered as he kept waving his machetes towards him.
Boom!
The rail guard on the other end was destroyed. Yuria rolled away horribly from his original position as blood started to flow down from his face which was caused by the debris' cut.
Boom boom!
Two additional holes were created on the yacht's battering wall. The steel that had been bent into the holes became as sharp as the machete.
Yuria kept evading T-rex's pursuit like a monkey. Everyone could not help but feel anxious and sweat profusely for him as he would be sliced in half if he were to be careless.
********
"The situation looks very dire..." Garen rubbed his chin as he said."The opponent's weapon is not that threatening and he can not do anything but to evade all of his attacks. The battle is over the moment he is struck even once. I don't think there is a need to fight one on one in this battle. Won't it be better if multiple people attack him at one go?"
"This is where T-rex's quality shine, " Nine-Tailed Fox said lazily as she placed her arm in front of her chest.
"T-rex's quality? What would that be?"
"His strength is simply too overwhelming. He installed many more engines in order to gain more strength but this has caused him to be very slow in attacking. Hence, it was natural that this situation where he could not keep up with Yuria's reaction happened, " Nine-Tailed Fox explained."However, he has one advantage in this condition. he can immediately go oof if he were to face against multiple enemies at once!"
"Oof? What is that suppose to mean?" Garen asked curiously.
"It's oof~" Nine-Tailed Fox looked at him as if he was supposed to understand her.
"What is it? Can't you be clearer on this?" Garen felt speechless.
"It's that thing!"
"Brother's Saber Killing Move! Four Directional Winds!!" Suddenly, Yuria's scream could be heard from afar as he used Garen's Saber Art Technique with the fish bayonet.
Hopelessness could be seen written all over Garen's face.
"This guy... Shout as much as you like, but the first sentence of the scream is unaccounted for!"
Boom!
There were only three slashes from the Four Directional Winds which Yuria had executed. Although all three slashes had landed on T-rex, it was unfortunately ineffective. Then, he continued evading T-rex's ferocious attack miserably once more.
"I'm not done yet!!" Yuria screamed."I'm betting everything including my reputation as Saber Two in this match!!"
"You're not infamous at all!" Garen could not hold himself back as he shouted.
Nine-Tailed Fox covered her mouth as she laughed at the side.
Clunk!
Yuria's latest attack finally had an effect on him.
Yuria fractured one of his arms in exchange for landing a critical attack on T-rex's joint.
T-rex lost his balance and kneeled on one knee as he fell.
Then, it was at this crucial moment!
Thud!!
T-rex shot out a wide net which covered a wide area in all directions. It was shot out from his back and covered an area of at least ten meters square around him, completely shrouding Yuria in it.
"Xiaojie!" Yuria started shouting loudly.
Boom!
A gunshot could be heard from afar as a javelin-like item carried the net which had yet to completely fall to the ground far away from them and plunged it down into the sea at high speed.
"That's a close one..." Yuria wiped off the sweat on his head as he got up, looking at the Cyborg T-rex who only had one leg left.
Although this guy looks very ferocious, he's just an idiot with big muscle after losing his power. He's very easy to deal with."
"Is that so?" T-rex scoffed.
"Still acting arrogant?!" Yuria was filled with fire."Do you realize what you have done?! You've killed so many people! Do people like you from Vulture not care about the innocent people's lives?!"
A sense of mockery could be seen in T-rex's gaze.
"Do you really think you've won against me?"
"You can't even move your leg anymore. What else can you do?" Yuria tensed up as he looked around so that he would not be ambushed by the others.
"It's over, " the biological side of T-rex's face slightly opened his mouth.
Buzz...
An indescribable shockwave was shot out towards Yuria's direction as circles of ripples spread out.
"This... This is!!?" Yuria felt his body turning soft as if he had lost all of his strength at once and he felt unease and dizzy.
Thud. He kneeled on the ground with a very pale face.
The silent buzzing vibration reached Garen and Nine-Tailed Fox who were far away. It managed to travel up to hundreds of meters away.
Both of them frowned slightly as they felt a little bit uncomfortable.
"Infrasonic wave?" Garen whispered.
"Correct, " Nine-Tailed Fox nodded."What would you do if you're in this situation?"
"Me?" Garen frowned as he pondered."I think I would give my opponent the opportunity to keep using this infrasonic technique."
Nine-Tailed Fox smiled and she did not say a single word.
"It's time for Yuria to activate his true strength."
"His true strength?" Garen was somewhat shocked."What are you talking about?"
"The Four Great Cornerstones are the only four with supernatural powers on this planet. You wouldn't think they would only have one ability, right?" Nine-Tailed Fox started to curl her hair with her finger. Her black hair started moving up slowly until the end of the hair was curled up.
"Soon... You'll see."
Garen nodded his head gently as he wanted to see what kind of ability Yuria would activate as well.
Time ticked by as Yuria's face turned even paler and started to sweat even more. He then started to curl his body up on the deck. He did not even move at all as it kept trembling. It was obvious that he was in agony.
Boom!
A huge gunshot was heard from afar. It was from Yurijie.
She was holding up her gun as she stared calmly in that direction.
"Brother! Do you remember what Brother Saber had said?!!" She shouted. Although her expression was calm, anxiety could be seen in her gaze.
Yuria, who was curled up on the deck had awakened from his fading conscience from this gunshot.
"Brother... Brother Blade..."
His memories kept playing back in front of his eyes. It was the memory of Brother Blade giving him a cruel lesson. The images quickly flashing across him soon stopped at one of the frames.
It was Garen's gentle smile.
"I am the Great Saberm, " it was as if that gentle voice was ringing beside his ears and the background was filled with a beautiful golden light, which was made up by the brain.
"Don't you know that you need to retreat if you can't win!! You're as dumb as a pig!!!" Garen's expression turned for the worse."Idiots like you who would even sell your ass away need to know that staying alive is the utmost priority if you can't win against an enemy. As the head minister, this is the first rule that you need to obey for the rest of your life!!!!!!"
The end of that speech seemed to reverberate in his mind as Yuria could still remember his shocked expression upon hearing it.
"This... This is... Ridiculous!!" He and his sister were stunned.
"Saber One, Saber Two. Do you know the true essence of combat?"
"... No..."
"It means that you have to create a scenario where your opponent is weaker than you, " Garen looked at the sky and sighed."Do you know what it takes to create such a situation?"
"No..."
Garen then turned around and showed his big and tall back.
"The trick is to shock your enemy!!"
"Shock??!!"
"Shocking... If your opponent had taken off his pants to surprise you, you'll then have to take off more clothes to counter him back!!!" Garen turned his head around and said loudly.
"..."
"Why do you need to use the example of taking off one's pants..." Nine-Tailed Fox laughed loudly.
"It felt entertaining at the time..." Garen felt innocent as he did not expect he had landed such a huge psychological impact towards Yuria and his sister. If he recalled correctly, the siblings started calling him Brother Saber after that lecture and they looked at him with respect.
Now that he thought about it... He could not help but sneeze.
"Could it be that this is the Sword Master's essence! To become more b*tchy than everybody!?" Nine-Tailed Fox held onto her stomach as she laughed to the point where her spine could not stay straight.
"Brother Saber! Ahh!!! Power! Power is flowing out from me!!!" Yurian stood up, shouting at the sky as his voice traveled to the distance.
"F*ck. Why am I involved in this!" Garen could not help but shout out. He felt that it was pointless for Yuria to shout out his nickname in such a serious environment.
Tear!
Yuria's shirt was torn apart!
Tear!
His pants were torn apart as well...
Ah!
A few screams could be heard as the women watching from the sideline turned their line of sight away embarrassingly.
Yuria did not seem to realize it at all. His skin was purplish red and he was holding the short fish bayonet tightly with his hand. His lower body was censored with mosaic as he rushed towards his opponent. His posture had carved its way into everyone's memory forever.
T-rex was stunned by his impudent actions and the sound waves were instantly weakened.
Yuria was extremely delighted as Brother Saber's battle strategy was effective!!
He was convinced by Brother Saber's warning during the battle from the very bottom of his heart. He had finally placed the idea of shame behind his mind in order to achieve victory.
