Chapter 58: The Fourth Great Coalition War

The Coalition host had gathered and made way for the Imperial capital Lakashia. On the way to their destination they were met by Great General Clyne's Army of 2.9 Billion men.

"I have to say, you sure got some stones trying to pull off something like this." Great General Clyne said as he met face to face with Toro.

"Great General Clyne, you've done a lot to help me get stronger over the years and I owe you a lot. So I'd prefer if I didn't have to fight you here, but I will crush you if I have to." Toro said.

"Ha! Don't get cocky boy. Don't forget who trained you to begin with." Clyne said. "That being said, because I trained you that I know how much stronger you've become. I doubt even I could beat you one on one. Luckily I didn't come here to fight."

"Oh, so what did you come here for then?" Toro asked.

"I didn't gather these men to fight against you. I gathered as many men as I could find that wanted to fight beside you." Clyne said as he turned towards his men. "After all, our mission is to crush the ones who are threatening the Empire, and who's a bigger threat to the Empire than those snakes at High Command? Let's crush them and save the Empire!!!" His men then cheered thunderously as a response.

"Thank you, I'm grateful for your help. It'll be great to see your men at my side during this campaign." Toro said.

"As much as I'd like that, I know that they are sending Great General Majole here to engage your forces. I'll hold him off so you can advance unimpeded." Clyne said. "You can't afford to lose anytime being bogged down in fights like this."

"I really appreciate everything you're doing for me here. Just don't get yourself killed out here if you need help don't hesitate to call me, I'll send reinforcements." Toro said.

"Ha! You're about 1000 years too early to be worrying about me, boy. After all the one with the real dangerous task is you." Clyne said.

Toro and the rest of the Coalition forces then continued their advance towards Lakashia. In the meantime, the clash between two Great Generals was about to begin. This would be the first battle to be fought during this war. The opposing armies consisted of Great General Majole's Army of 3.4 billion Imperial troops against Great General Clyne's Army of 2.9 billion men. Their clash would take place in an asteroid belt between two galaxies called the Ajut Beltway.

"How fortunate it is to see you here, you traitor. Now I'll get to kill you myself." Great General Majole said as he arrived and met face to face with Great General Clyne.

"I don't feel like I've betrayed anyone. The way I see it, it's High Command that have betrayed the trust of the people." Clyne replied.

"I have no interest in those kind of idealistic views. I simply follow my orders, I care about anything else." Majole said. "And right now my orders are to crush you completely."

"I sure hope you don't think it'd be so easy." Clyne said as he drew his sword.

"I don't doubt that you will be a challenge, but the result will still inevitably be your defeat." Majole said.

"I wouldn't be so sure about that!" Clyne said as he rushed towards him and their attacks clashed.

The dual between the two Great Generals would be an epic battle, with the outcome of the entire battle hanging in the balance.
