The cannon of Zero-State Force tore across the city, raging through space and reaching Hako in the blink of an eye—far too fast for the clown-like Curse Eater to dodge.
Just as it seemed the attack was about to land, Sozing appeared in front of him. The man raised his palm and released a repulsive force identical to the one that had sent Cain flying earlier. The Zero-State cannon was violently repelled, blasted away into the distance where it detonated harmlessly against the dark skyline.
"That power again," Cain muttered, his eyes sharpening.
The strength of that ability was immense, and it was clearly connected to the strange time dilation that had slowed his first strike. Cain knew he needed to find a way around it, but there was barely time to analyze it as the battle did not stop.
"BOOM!"
