Flat-Brim Samurai Chapter 119 - Understanding
An older man blocked the arm with a katana. A boombox hit him from the back BOOM and a fist came from below BOOM, delivering an uppercut. Of course these attacks did little, but the meaning wasn't for them to be damaging, just enough for them to get Apollo and Cias out of there. But who were they? Apollo looked over at the grown man, his eyes widened ,"DAD! NOAH! DEVAN!" His dad looked at his son, smiled ,"Are you done already?" Apollo smiled ,"NOT YET!" His dad wore a combat uniform that he'd recognized before, one of his? Apollo was reconciling that his father was actually part of their members of the interplanetary military. He'd known his father had all kinds of experience fighting but not like this, and not this strong. Kenji unleashed his dark grey aura, KABOOM. Noah summoned his Art: Spiritual Weaponry and Devan pulled out his assimilation weapon.
Theo wasn't afraid at all, he was excited even. He summoned more Art: Space Swords, bombarding the group with insane amounts of fire power. Noah and Kenji bulldozed forwards into the blades and either deflected or destroyed the spatial arts in an instant. Their power and emotions combined into a bullet of pure firepower. KABOOM They shot past Theo, he diverted their vectors and sent them flying at each other KABOOM. Theo flew away at insane speeds and spread his arms wide in front of a cluster of galaxies, he outstretched his hands ,"This should be enough power." He warped gravity to its absolute limit and formed an insanely massive black hole FWOOOMP, it sucked in every star and bit of energy within its radius. Hundreds of galaxies converged together into the galactic weapon.
Theo then flew directly at the thing, he forced the energy to condense to an even further degree. He shaped the black hole into a greatsword, and grasped the handle. He swung the weapon at the group and they tried their best to dodge but the gravity forced them to come closer and get hit by the powerful blade SLLLLAAAASSSHHHH. The force ripped them all in half. Their consciousnesses were on the edge but they all pushed through the massive amounts of pain and used Telikinesis and Recovery to reattach their bodies. Apollo, reattaching his top and bottom half felt something within him change, as though he finally understood the attack. Akarui was helping with the clarity of his fighting prowess.
Apollo gazed at the cosmos (I can see, everything). He was shocked with wide open eyes. Space, Matter and Time were not just a force, they were something within his control. The dimensional fabric in front of him was clear to him. He could feel all the forces pulling and pushing him, flowing through and out of his body. His connection to reality was both strengthened and weakened.
Apollo stepped forwards on the space in front of him using Art: Space. Theo was cautious ,"Did you start seeing the inner workings of the nexus?" Apollo responded ,"What do you mean?" Theo smiled ,"When one sheds a layer of their soul and glances into the essence of a nexus, that person can then understand the laws governing reality itself." Apollo smirked ,"I knew I was special." He dashed at Theo, Theo tried to divert his Vector but Apollo broke through that Art utilizing the same Art, SLASH. He was still not powerful enough to destroy him but under certain conditions, he could still defeat him. Noah was right behind him BOOM, blocked by the Gravity Blade, he was kicked away. Devan dashed at his side and swung with all of his might KABOOM. He only touched the Gravity Barrier outside of him. Even his father, who had so much experience fighting over the years had no chance, he'd been away for so long and he didn't have the experience of seeing into the Nexus. They were all swatted away like flies but Cias was still in the back, gazing at the same vision that Apollo was looking at, his flames turned hotter, his eyes shown an incandescent glow, his mouth agape (I can see it too, thank you Onyx).
