Boom-
Boom-
Boom-
Deafening roars echoed through the air of Crocus City from time to time.
With each roar, a giant dragon was slain.
Soon, all the dragons within the city limits had been completely eliminated by Kenichi.
"All the dragons inside the city have been dealt with. Now, only those near the Eclipse Gate remain!"
After slaying the last dragon, Kenichi turned and set his gaze on the location of the Eclipse Gate.
Erza had already reached the Eclipse Gate.
"Kenichi is finished over there. Now, I just need to close this gate!"
Erza glanced sideways towards the city area.
After the sounds of explosions from the air ceased, she withdrew her gaze and looked at the massive Eclipse Gate before her.
"Requip!"
Without any hesitation, Erza immediately activated her magic power.
In the next second, a dazzling light erupted from around Erza.
After the light dissipated, the armor on Erza's body had changed into the Giant's Armor.
Once a dragon's body had completely emerged from the Eclipse Gate, Erza's pretty face hardened.
"Now's the time!"
She didn't hesitate, pressing her palms against the heavy gate and pushing with all her might.
The Giant's Armor was renowned for its strength.
Erza, clad in the Giant's Armor, possessed immense power.
Then, under the astonished gazes of Princess Hisui and the others, the heavy gate actually began to slowly close.
"Incredible strength! To push such a massive gate alone!"
Arcadios looked at Erza, first exclaiming in admiration, then ordered the surviving royal soldiers: "Quick, help her!"
Upon hearing Arcadios's command, the royal soldiers rushed towards the other gate leaf.
Pushed by dozens of soldiers, the heavy gate also began to slowly close.
However, just as the two heavy gate leaves were about to shut completely, a pair of dragon claws covered in scales reached out from the gap between them.
"Oh no!"
Arcadios's old face changed dramatically upon seeing the huge claws.
He didn't hesitate, immediately strode over quickly, and shouted: "Close the gate quickly!"
But it was already too late when Arcadios said this.
The gate leaf being pushed by the royal soldiers was violently forced open by a tremendous force.
Instantly, those dozens of royal soldiers were all sent flying.
Erza, who was pushing the other gate leaf, also had her pretty face change.
Soon, Erza also felt a terrifying counterforce coming from the gate.
Although Erza used all her strength, she was still no match for the power of the dragon inside the gate.
Then, under Princess Hisui's despairing gaze, the nearly closed Eclipse Gate was forced open again.
"Roar-"
The dragon that pushed open the Eclipse Gate raised its head and roared.
Accompanying this roar, a violent air wave instantly swept out.
The royal soldiers who had fallen to the ground were all blown away.
Erza, clad in the Giant's Armor, although she crossed her arms in front of her, struggling to resist the air wave, was still slowly pushed back, her feet sliding on the ground.
Boom-
Just then, a terrifyingly loud noise echoed through the air.
Hearing this noise, Erza, Princess Hisui, and the dragon whose half body was still inside the Eclipse Gate all looked up.
But when they clearly saw the situation, Erza was overjoyed, Princess Hisui was stunned, and the dragon wore an expression of disbelief.
"Kenichi!"
Erza looked at Kenichi, who had just shattered a dragon's body and was now walking slowly towards them, and spoke with delight.
Boom-
Soon, another loud noise echoed through the air.
Another dragon was instantly killed by Kenichi.
Seeing Kenichi kill the dragon so easily, Princess Hisui and Arcadios were shocked beyond words.
And that dragon also stood still in place, not moving a muscle.
'Am I seeing things?'
'Is this guy really human?'
'What era is this? Why are humans so strong?'
At this moment, many questions flashed through the dragon's mind.
Next, a series of loud noises echoed through the air.
Boom-
Boom-
Boom-
With each loud noise that came, a dragon was killed.
And Kenichi was getting closer and closer to the Eclipse Gate.
Later, whenever the loud noise sounded, the dragon with half its body out of the Eclipse Gate felt its heart tremble violently along with the sound.
By now, it had begun to regret pushing that gate open.
'What the hell did I push that gate open for?'
'Wouldn't it have been better to let it close?'
Just as the dragon was thinking this, Kenichi had already walked up to the Eclipse Gate.
"Do you leave on your own, or shall I send you off?"
Kenichi looked at the dragon before him, his tone flat.
Before the dragon could answer, Kenichi had already launched his attack.
He saw Kenichi leap up, his fist directly smashing towards the dragon's head.
There was no fancy technique in his punch, only boundless power.
The moment Kenichi's fist landed on the dragon's head, the dragon's head directly burst apart.
And its massive body was sent flying back into the Eclipse Gate.
The Eclipse Gate was connected to 400 years ago, and the other side of the Eclipse Gate was the world of dragons.
At this moment, a large number of dragons were gathered at the location of the Eclipse Gate.
After the dragon suffered Kenichi's blow, its body flew out from the gate, sending all the dragons in a straight line behind the gate flying.
This sudden turn of events also shocked those dragons.
When those dragons saw the dragon that had flown out from the Eclipse Gate had its head exploded, they were all filled with shock and doubt.
"What happened?"
"What is behind that gate?"
With this precedent, those dragons didn't dare to easily set foot into the Eclipse Gate for the time being.
But there were too many dragons, and there were always a few fearless ones.
A dragon that seemed made of steel was the first to walk towards the Eclipse Gate.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the other dragons, it slowly walked into the Eclipse Gate.
