Chapter 452: Terrifying Clown

*Shuuaaa

Gently spinning his sword, Yuki opened the first door, passed through the wire threads, appeared in front of Kanzaki instantly, and swung his sword down.

"!!"

Kanzaki was surprised for a moment. This clown moved too fast. If her body hadn't been reinforced by Magic, her eyes wouldn't have been able to see this clown. She quickly recovered, leaned her body, and with her Nodachi, blocked the sword that was mercilessly coming towards her.

*Clang

Unfortunately for Kanzaki, she underestimated Est too much. When it clashed against her Nodachi, the force of this powerful sword combined with Yuki's monstrous strength caused her arms to move back in an irregular direction, and she was forced to tilt her body, thus avoiding receiving the full impact of the sword. Unfortunately, she still received the impact of the blow, which sent her flying.

*BAMM

The ground opened up, creating a sword fissure over two meters deep and approximately 200 meters long.

*BOMM

But it wasn't over yet, as the building in front of Yuki was cut in half and collapsed in one blow.

Dust rose, and the barrier trembled. Seeing this, Yuki couldn't help but sweat a little.

As expected of Est, it had barely used 10% of its strength and was enough to split a nearby building in half. Undoubtedly, the damage would continue if it weren't for the barrier that received the impact. Otherwise, Est could split an entire district in half.

"It's very strong..."

[Thank you, Master...]

If this was capable at 10%... What would happen with all its power? What if they use a combined attack? Yuki didn't even want to think about it. This was too terrifying. At this moment, Yuki felt like a child playing with a bazooka. No matter where he fired it, it would cause great destruction.

*Cough.. Cough..

Emerging from the dust cloud, Kanzaki's hands trembled. This single attack made her tremble. Also, a small crack appeared in her Nodachi.

Est is a great spirit of the sword. Any ordinary sword will be destroyed in its presence. Now that Est's power had advanced, even the katanas of the Shinobi world wouldn't be able to withstand a blow. The fact that Kanzaki's Nodachi could resist Est meant it wasn't an ordinary Nodachi. Unfortunately, Est was still far above her level. An attack at 10% showed cracks, and it was only a matter of time before it was destroyed.

"Dangerous... It's very dangerous!"

Just by looking at the state of the powerful sword, Kanzaki knew she was in serious trouble.

(If I hadn't dodged in time...)

A second slower, and Kanzaki would have been knocked out. Her defensive spell wouldn't have been strong enough to withstand the power of that sword.

"I advise you not to hold back, Miss Santa, otherwise, you'll suffer..."

Walking slowly, Yuki made his way through the dust cloud, his eyes gleaming, and the sword in his hand gleamed too.

Kanzaki's expression sank, but she knew she couldn't face that clown as she was now. Such a powerful and unknown magician, bearer of a very powerful sword.

As Santa, Kanzaki knew for certain that this clown could face a magical Organization by himself. Now she understood why this clown said that Academy City is his territory and why there are no other magicians in this city.

It's not that they don't dare to enter this city; it's because this clown had eliminated them. With such power, no common magician could confront him, not even the Saints would have problems.

If they had known that there was such a terrifying magician in this city, Kanzaki and Stiyl would definitely not have let Index live in this city.

Unfortunately, it was already too late; the clown already had them under surveillance from the beginning.

"Well then? Are you willing to fight seriously, or do I have to force you?"

As he said these words, Yuki's Chakra increased, and the wind around him began to fluctuate strongly.

(I have no choice...)

Adjusting her breathing, Kanzaki closed her eyes slightly before opening them forcefully. If possible, she wouldn't like to use this spell, but in front of powerful opponents like this clown, it was either this or be defeated.

"Oh?..."

Through the Sharingan, Yuki could detect how Kanzaki's energy was increasing. At the same time, this spell began to exert great pressure on Kanzaki's body...

Yuki smiled under his mask and raised his sword to his shoulder.

"Hihihi, good~ Will you fight seriously? Let me experience how strong the Amakusa style is."

"..."

Kanzaki didn't respond but assumed a fighting stance...

"Yuisen!..."

Suddenly, Kanzaki disappeared, and something cut through the air. Yuki's Sharingan rotated, and his sword struck hard, but this wasn't over. Strong sword strikes hit towards his body...

*Clang.

*BOM

The Nodachi and Est clashed again, but this time, the Nodachi was supported by Mana, so it could resist the blow. At the same time, Kanzaki's strength increased dramatically, managing to withstand Yuki's strength.

*Clang

Again, the Nodachi and Est clashed, causing a shockwave that knocked down nearby buildings and left large trenches in the ground.

Yuki moved quickly and struck, and Kanzaki was matching his speed.

But this was to be expected. Kanzaki had entered the Breaker of God mode, basically a magical mode in which Kanzaki could enter by regulating her breathing. While in this "mode," Kanzaki's abilities would increase tremendously to the point where her performance could only be described as "superhuman." Due to this, her blood vessels, muscles, nerves, organs, and bones gained the ability of the God Breaker under the spell, providing her with a layer of protection, which is why Kanzaki could be on equal footing with Yuki.

But even though it was an impressive spell, it had its disadvantages. The spell exerted great pressure on Kanzaki, and it had a high consumption of magical power.

Kanzaki's power increase was only temporary. That's why she didn't hesitate to launch her strongest attacks to defeat her enemy.

However...

"Hahahaha..."

Instead of feeling pressured, Yuki was smiling under his mask, and he made the slightest movement to counter Kanzaki's attack. Est was powerful enough that a single swing was enough to neutralize Kanzaki's attacks. Literally, Yuki was playing while swinging a sword capable of destroying a Level 1 World.

He wasn't even trying to use his chakra or his monstrous physical strength. This was a test of power for Est, and Yuki was satisfied with it.

*Clang, Clang

Kanzaki gritted her teeth. Her spells weren't working. This clown was more powerful than she thought...

Suddenly, Kanzaki lowered her center of gravity, and her body flashed, moving even faster.

"Raikiri!"

Using a spell with the power to cut a lightning bolt, the Nodachi cut towards Yuki, while the latter watched through his movements in slow motion.

The tip of the Nodachi dangerously approached his body, and just as it was about to pierce him, Est glowed...

"Est, increase to 20%"

[Yes, Master...]

*CLANG

*BAM

Spinning at high speed, Est clashed against the Nodachi again, where the cracks grew on its blade, causing a massive shockwave that devastated the surrounding area, and Kanzaki was sent flying by the incredible impact...

The barrier trembled incessantly, while the dust cloud rose, the buildings were destroyed, leading Kanzaki to crash into the rubble...

"?! Guh!"

With blood coming out of her mouth and her body severely damaged, Kanzaki tried to stand up, only to find that her right leg was twisted in an irregular position.

Seeing this, Kanzaki couldn't help but grit her teeth and turn her gaze forward.

"What a powerful sword..."

Outside the smoke cloud was Yuki, holding Est in his hand, while the ground in front of him cracked like a spider web, and several debris lifted.

Except for Kanzaki, everything that had been hit by Est was destroyed, including the Nodachi. Several cracks had formed, bringing this weapon to its limit. Only one more blow was needed, and it would be history.

"I'll have to use it... Stigma"

With no choice, Kanzaki used her Nodachi for support as she prepared for her next move.
