Chapter 108, Battle 2: The Clash Between Blazing Flame and Azure Sky
Chapter 108, the second battle: The clash between blazing flames and the azure sky.
"Heave-ho~"
Under Brian's watchful gaze, Agni, the Fire Rat Girl who had been basking in the sun on the rock and watching the battle, instantly revived and leaped into the arena. "Master, I'm ready!"
"I am also ready."
A voice came from above, a gentle breeze blew by, and the figure of Lioness Griffin appeared in the arena, facing Agni.
"Alright, then the battlefield is yours to handle. Let's begin."
Brian nodded, then disappeared and reappeared beside the two of them.
Agni and Griffin exchanged a glance without saying much, and their powerful auras erupted instantly.
In the center of the battlefield, two completely different yet equally powerful auras are clashing fiercely in the air.
On one side is Agni, the embodiment of blazing flames, a monster girl of the Mythical Zoan type, Rat-Rat Fruit, Fire Rat form.
Agni's petite body hovered half a foot above the ground, her slender tail swaying and burning like a real flame, its tip constantly flashing and radiating suffocating heat.
Her fiery red eyes burned with fighting spirit, and she was surrounded by visible, distorted heat waves, as if a small sun had descended to earth.
On the other side is the ruler of the sky, the Mythical Zoan type, Cat-Cat Fruit, Griffin form monster girl.
She possesses a physique that perfectly combines the ferocity of a lion with the agility of a giant eagle. Her strong body is covered with short brown fur, she walks on all fours, and her sharp claws are deeply embedded in the rocks.
With a pair of enormous and magnificent eagle wings, the wingspan was astonishing. Each feather was like gilded steel, shimmering with a cold light. She simply stood there, exuding the natural pressure of a predator and the arrogance of a king of the sky.
Behind them, the monster girls watched the second battle and discussed it amongst themselves.
Privately, they even started making bets on who had a better chance of winning.
"Chirp!!!"
After a long standoff, it was Agni, who usually seemed a bit silly and cute, who broke the deadlock.
Agni let out a clear yet scorching cry, and her petite figure transformed into a streak of fire.
She pushed her hands forward, and the flames surrounding her instantly condensed into dozens of fist-sized, yet terrifyingly hot, orange-red fireballs, which rained down on Griffin like a meteor shower.
"The Secret Technique of Blazing Flames: A Thousand Blades of Sunfire!"
The fireball pierced the air with a hissing sound, as if even the air itself was ignited, blocking a large portion of Griffin's space to dodge.
Faced with the dense barrage of flames, Griffin let out a high-pitched, sharp eagle cry, full of disdain.
With a sudden flap of her enormous brown eagle wings, the powerful airflow instantly ripped up rubble from the ground, and her massive body soared into the sky with an agility disproportionate to her size.
Numerous fireballs grazed past her, striking the ground where she had just stood, blasting open scorched craters where lava flowed.
"Is that all, little fire rat?"
Griffin's voice had a metallic quality and the arrogance of a sky overlord.
She gracefully circled in the air, then flapped her wings again, not to fly, but to transform the condensed wind pressure into countless crescent-shaped, visible cyan wind blades, which poured down on Agni below like a torrential rain.
"Azure Battle Technique - Sky-Splitting Wind Formation!"
The wind blades are incredibly sharp, cutting through the air with a piercing whistle, covering a wide area, and moving at an astonishing speed.
Agni's petite advantage was on full display at this moment. She nimbly soared up and down in the air, like a fire spirit, dodging most of the wind blades with the slightest breath.
Occasionally, when she couldn't completely avoid a few attacks, she would conjure a small fire shield to withstand them. The fire and wind blades collided, producing a violent explosion, with sparks and turbulent air currents flying everywhere.
"Wow, that's fast!"
The dog-girl Ling, who was watching the battle, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"The cutting power of those wind blades is ridiculously strong."
Tiger Girl was shocked; such a wind blade could probably take her life with just one.
"It's really good, as expected of the Griffin."
Leona expressed her admiration, saying that as a fighter of the same level, she would also need to expend a lot of effort to withstand this attack.
Beros remained calm and said indifferently, "The wind blades are good, but the flame shield is not good enough; it's not refined enough."
As expected, just as Boros had predicted, Agni's fire shield was ultimately outmatched and shattered by the wind blades.
Agni was clearly aware of this, and she increased her altitude again, confronting Griffin from afar in the air.
She took a deep breath, and the color of the flames burning around her suddenly deepened, changing from orange-red to a more intense bright white.
"Fire Rat's Ultimate Technique: Scorching Bone Flame Wheel!"
A massive ring, several meters in diameter and composed entirely of bright white flames, like a fragment of the sun, swirled and roared toward Griffin, carrying an aura of incineration.
Wherever the fiery wheel passed, space distorted violently, and the rocks below even began to show signs of melting.
Sensing the terrifying heat contained in this attack, a hint of seriousness flashed in Griffin's amber eyes.
She dared not be presumptuous, and let out a long howl that pierced through the clouds and split rocks, her whole body bursting with dazzling golden light!
She folded her wings in front of her, the golden feathers at the tips of her wings standing upright like two huge golden shields, with wind pressure barriers flowing across their surfaces as if they were real!
"Griffin Arcane Art: Steel Wing Protection!"
The bright white flame wheel crashed violently into the golden, steel-winged guardian!
"boom!!!"
A deafening explosion echoed across the deserted island!
The blinding white light mixed with the golden light was so intense that it was impossible to look directly at it.
The raging fire energy and sharp wind pressure violently annihilated and destroyed everything! The shockwave spread out in a ring, briefly dispersing the clouds in the sky, and the rubble on the ground was swept into the air before falling like raindrops.
The monster girls watching the battle once again used their abilities to defend themselves.
Yin and Xuan exchanged a glance, then stood in front of their weaker sisters, unleashing their domineering aura to shatter the falling rocks.
Feixue and Aila automatically reappeared the Dragon Might Barrier, while Mia and Aura continuously thrust their snake tails, shattering the rubble.
Another burst of freezing energy erupted in front of Coco, shattering the rocks into ice sculptures that fell to the ground.
The most domineering one had to be Peros. He glanced at the impact, unleashed a mental shockwave, and instantly cleared everything without even lifting a finger.
The light faded, and the view in the sky became clear.
Griffin's protective wings had disappeared, and a few feathers on her magnificent brown-gold wings were charred, making her look somewhat disheveled, but her main body was not seriously injured.
After slightly adjusting his aura in mid-air, a flash of cold light appeared, and the charred wings instantly fell off, restoring his sharp and fierce state.
Its feathers spread slightly, ready to attack again.
After Agni unleashed such a powerful technique, his aura noticeably weakened, and the flames around him dimmed considerably.
In that instant, Griffin seized the opportunity presented by Agni's slight openings in mid-air.
