On the summit of the Moon, it was as white as noon, as black as midnight, and as red as blood.
Amidst this clash of three colours, a spine-chilling aura surged into the sky.
“Do you think they have any chance of winning?” Looking at Spirit Butterfly and Nether Tiger confronting Undying Blood Raven, Brewmaster suddenly turned to Sarcosuchus and curiously asked.
“I don’t think so.” After a moment of contemplation, Sarcosuchus replied and then further explained, “Unlike other Mutant Beasts, the most terrifying aspect of Undying Blood Raven is his immortality. It’s next to impossible for someone of the same level to destroy him. Although Spirit Butterfly and Nether Tiger have remarkable talents and have consumed Elemental Fruits, they are still likely far inferior to Undying Blood Raven.”
“En…” Brewmaster nodded slightly in agreement.
The methods of Undying Blood Raven were indeed hard to tackle.
Not long ago, Brewmaster and Undying Blood Raven had sparred with each other. Their spar lasted from day to night and then from night to day, with neither side able to overcome the other.
Undying Blood Raven could not break Brewmaster’s defenses. Similarly, Brewmaster had no way to deal with Undying Blood Raven who could easily transform into thousands of Blood Ravens.
*Tsk tsk…* Clicking his tongue, Brewmaster focused his gaze on the horizon and stated, “I’m quite looking forward to the power of these two Elemental Fruits.”
“I’m looking forward to it as well.” Sharing a smile, Sarcosuchus’s lips curved up slightly.
…
At this moment, in the space above…
No words were exchanged, just silent, sharp gazes.
Accompanied by this were the increasingly intense auras of the three beasts, causing a strange phenomenon to appear in the sky.
A round Sun rose behind Spirit Butterfly, radiating a glaring light in all directions.
On the other side, endless waves of darkness rose behind Nether Tiger, each wave higher than the last, which were ultimately about to crash over the head of Undying Blood Raven.
*Rooooooaar…* With a thunderous roar, Nether Tiger lunged at Undying Blood Raven. The boundless darkness seemed to come alive, twisting into a giant Black Tiger leaping into space.
At this moment, darkness seemed to be the ‘clothing’ of Nether Tiger.
What was even more suffocating was that this attack, although terrifying and tore the space apart, was deathly silent.
This was the power of darkness, silent but deadly.
“Good timing.” With a loud laugh, Undying Blood Raven advanced instead of retreating. He let out a fierce cry and dived down, transforming into a blood-red beam of light.
*Booooom…* Soon afterward, the two clashed with a thunderous roar. Their collision unleashed a terrifying shockwave that generated a Category 12 hurricane, sending countless Mutant Beasts sprawling.
Even more terrifying were the successive ripples spread across the space.
However, at this moment…
*Rooooooaaar…* A mournful roar echoed as the boundless waves of darkness began to retreat, seemingly unable to endure any longer.
However, before it could sink further, a warm and gentle voice suddenly echoed in Undying Blood Raven’s ear, “Do you know the speed of light?”
“What?” Taken aback, Undying Blood Raven, who was enveloped by blood-red Spiritual Energy, had a drastic change in his expression.
For at that moment, a brilliant light suddenly magnified in his pupils. So fast that it was really hard to believe.
Then, with a loud *boom*, the blood-red Spiritual Energy wrapping around Undying Blood Raven shook violently.
*Crack, crack…* With each cracking sound, the blood-red Spiritual Energy encasing Undying Blood Raven exploded into pieces instantly, as that brilliant beam of light, in a moment of daze, struck Undying Blood Raven’s wings with a deafening clap.
In a moment, the blood-red wings of Undying Blood Raven seemed unable to bear it, and much to the helplessness of Spirit Butterfly and Nether Tiger, it split into countless Blood Ravens, blanketing the entire space above.
And this was the terrifying aspect of Undying Blood Raven: After sustaining a certain amount of damage, he would transform into countless Blood Ravens and then sacrifice one to transfer the damage.
At this time, if one looked closely, they would see the Blood Ravens once again gathering, forming a blood-red wing, completely intact.
Only a blood-red feather remained in the sky, slowly drifting down.
“What a troublesome ability.” With rare complaint, Nether Tiger’s gaze became sharp before he let out a roar and pounced once again.
*Booooom, booooom, booooom…* Thunderous explosions filled the sky above as Spiritual Energy storms erupted one after another.
From time to time, strange phenomena also appeared: The brightly lit sky would suddenly be replaced by an endless night, but then all of a sudden, dazzling blood light tore through the darkness and daylight.
This was the terrifying clash of Spirit Butterfly, Nether Tiger, and Undying Blood Raven.
“The strength of Nether Tiger lies in his mastery of the Dao of Shadows. He can create multiple Shadow Clones and remains silent and elusive, with every shadowy corner serving as a potential hiding place for his true body,” Yu Zi Yu gave his evaluation, revealing a hint of admiration in his voice.
[As expected of the battle-hardened Nether Tiger. His battle sense is quite amazing. He is actually using Elementalization to travel through darkness and ambush Undying Blood Raven from shadows every now and then. As for Spirit Butterfly…] Turning his gaze, Yu Zi Yu looked at the sky, where Spirit Butterfly seemed to tear through the dark sky, like a streak of light.
Her form was unseen, only the light streaking through space was visible. Yet every time she streaked across, she would pause for a moment before shooting straight in another direction.
Although she was fast to the point of being incredible, she was clearly somewhat clumsy. Moreover, even if she managed to land an attack on Undying Blood Raven, it did not seem to have much impact.
“Her understanding of the Light Elemental Fruit is still lacking. While the speed brought by the Light Elemental Fruit is indeed terrifying, light travels in a straight line, making it easy to dodge. Also…” In his contemplation, Yu Zi Yu noticed that Spirit Butterfly did not seem adept at combat.
Compared to the battle-experienced Nether Tiger, which now attracted most of Undying Blood Raven’s firepower, Spirit Butterfly seemed more like it was occasionally taking advantage of the situation.
“This one still needs a lot of training…” Sighing inwardly, Yu Zi Yu began to consider the future of Spirit Butterfly.
Though Spirit Butterfly disliked combat, it was unavoidable. With great power comes great responsibility. One cannot let personal preferences affect what they needed to do.
After all, having consumed a top-tier Elemental Fruit, it would be a tremendous waste if Spirit Butterfly could not apply it in battle.
