Kuro had never considered the idea of a golden lion with its rudder removed.
The golden lion's aura was rapidly diminishing, but correspondingly, its madness was surging upwards.
This old guy is really courting death!
The rubble struck Kuro's Xuanwu Secret Technique, making a crackling sound.
It wasn't an ability, but rather the air currents stirred up by the golden lion that caused the surrounding area to vibrate.
Conqueror's Haki!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The golden lion's maniacal laughter echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
The famous swords [Sakura Ten] and [Wood Dry], which were bound to his legs, were pulled off his legs. One sword landed in his only hand, while the other floated around him.
He gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and pointed it at Kuro.
"Kid, catch this."
"Slash Wave!"
The powerful aura, mixed with golden slashes, transformed into a black-gold color, and the strike hurtled straight down.
Speed, extremely fast!
Bang!
With a single slash, Kuro's Xuanwu profound technique shattered completely, leaving behind fragments of illusory light like glass.
The shattering of the Xuanwu Mystic Art caused Kuro to stagger, staring at the Golden Lion in horror.
The power of this strike is incomparable to anything before!
Putting aside the fact that this is not the Golden Lion's original strength, the difference between using his feet and his hands is two completely different things.
Taking advantage of his momentary lapse in concentration, Shiki swung his sword again.
call!
The attack came hurtling towards him.
"Slash Wave!"
Kuro assumed an iaido stance, his advanced Haki swirling like a whirlwind around the scabbard, and unleashed a slash of his own. The black and gold strikes collided in mid-air, causing the earth to tremble once more.
A cold glint emanated from around Kuro.
Kuro swung his sword backhand and slashed at the cold light.
The golden lion had already appeared there and slashed at them with his sword.
Bang!
Kuro flew backward and crashed into a large, protruding rock. The rock shattered, burying his body inside.
The next instant, the surrounding rocks parted, and Kuro, his body wrapped in Armament Haki like armor, exhaled softly, his face grim.
This old guy is even more difficult to deal with!
"They really were saving their energy!"
Shiki laughed, "Kid, if you don't go all out, you really are going to die!"
Kuro swung his sword down, blowing away the surrounding rubble. The phantom of the white tiger reappeared on his body, with a water dragon coiled within it.
"I was saving my strength just in case. I originally thought three secret techniques would be enough to deal with you, but now it seems they're far from sufficient!"
Upon hearing this, Shiki's expression turned ferocious, and he charged forward, his aura carving a deep trench in the ground beneath him.
"The Unknown Divine Wind and Romance - Xuanwu!"
Kuro swung his blade again, using the Xuanwu Secret Technique to shield himself, while the head of the giant serpent stared at the golden lion.
This time, however, the golden lion did not dodge at all, but instead glared at the black tortoise. The form of the giant snake gradually disintegrated under this gaze.
Conqueror's Haki!
Even Kuro was shaken by that glance.
He had sensed the Conqueror's Haki of a top-tier expert!
"The Mysterious Art of the Unknown God's Style: Vermilion Bird!"
Kuro slashed two fingers across the blade, and a flame enveloped his body, gradually expanding. With a bright cry, the flames formed a giant firebird that charged towards the golden lion.
"Oh? A phantom beast formed from flying slashes?"
Shiki smiled and slashed at the giant firebird. The firebird flew towards Shiki, and the two crossed paths. The firebird flew onto Shiki, and half of its form dissipated, revealing Kuro's figure.
However, in the next instant, the vanished form was restored and transformed back into a firebird.
"The phoenix? But even if Marco came in person, it would be nothing special."
Shiki unleashed a slash, shattering the phoenix's form once more.
Boom!
Two more floating islands descended, and Shiki lost his balance, his body lowering slightly, and the swords floating around him almost fell as well.
Seeing this, Kuro narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Old man, you're not up to it anymore."
"Hahaha, it's still early!"
Shiki laughed heartily, "Killing you before that is enough!"
"Yeah..."
Kuro unleashed the Vermilion Bird Secret Technique, his body landing on the ground, the blade emerging from the air, and said earnestly to Golden Lion, "Old man, this is your final move, get ready!"
This time, Kuro moved his two fingers towards the blade extremely slowly.
"The Unknown God's Romantic Journey..."
With a soft chant, the form of a white tiger enveloped his body, the form of a black tortoise stood in front of him, the azure dragon coiled around him, and he himself appeared in the form of a vermilion bird.
"Old man, my sword technique is called [Unknown Divine Wind Style]. You've seen the four great secrets, and there's one more ultimate secret technique. Watch closely."
He gripped the sword with both hands, raised it above his head, and uttered, "Ultimate Technique: Yellow Dragon."
The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise flew into the sky together, disappeared into the heavens, and the next moment, a gale howled, pressing down on the trees on the island and making them all bow their heads.
Boom!
A flash of lightning illuminated the gloomy sky, and the first downpour began, striking the island.
Shiki subconsciously looked up, his eyes widening involuntarily, and sighed, "You can still do that...?"
A huge yellow dragon head gradually appeared in the clouds.
The dragon's head, along with its body, descended from the clouds, baring its fangs and claws at Shiki.
That was formed from sword technique, without any inherent power.
That's why Shiki was amazed.
"Is this your strongest move?" Shiki asked Kuro.
Kuro nodded: "Yes."
"Indeed strong, but I am the Golden Lion!"
Shiki smiled excitedly, leaped up, and headed straight for the falling yellow dragon.
