Chapter 230: A Battle Between One and Millions in the Sky
Yet, this was only the beginning.
Thousands upon thousands of Slaughterers surged forward like an unstoppable tide, fearless of death, showing no intention of retreating. Each swing of Usagi's blades ignited sparks and drew blood, but for every enemy she felled, more followed relentlessly. Her stamina was depleting rapidly, whereas these endless foes showed no sign of exhaustion.
"Damn it, these bastards are Death Servants!" Usagi's breath grew heavy, cold sweat beading on her forehead. However, her movements remained as swift as the wind, her figure weaving through the Slaughterers with lethal precision.
With each strike of her twin blades, crimson flames streaked across the sky. But this time, it wasn't just fire—it was a transformation! Between her blades, fragments of intertwining red and black light shimmered as if emerging from the void. These fragments clashed and fused, their impact echoing like a deafening metallic roar, converging into an unstoppable force.
As the fragments merged, a massive crimson-black cannon materialized, fusing seamlessly with Usagi's twin blades. No longer mere weapons, the blades became the conduit for this colossal firearm. The cannon, resembling a slumbering beast, pulsed with flowing streaks of red and black, emanating an overwhelming pressure.
Usagi took another deep breath, her slender hands gripping the twin blades firmly as she extended them forward. Crimson light flowed from her palms into the cannon, its muzzle surging with a blazing energy. The fusion of red and black reverberated through the air like rolling thunder, distorting space itself.
Behind Usagi, the atmosphere twisted unnaturally. As she focused intently, something eerie began to emerge—eight pairs of floating black orbs, appearing silently like phantoms. Each pair trembled slightly, gathering an unseen force before rapidly unfolding, transforming into small cannons.
These black spheres hovered around each mini-cannon, forming a disciplined formation behind Usagi, resembling an ominous honor guard. Black and crimson light interwove between them, creating intricate patterns of energy, each beam brimming with lethal intent. The lights pulsed in unison, like the synchronized heartbeat of a colossal entity, resonating ominously in the air.
Shrouded in this radiance, Usagi stood like a Valkyrie upon the battlefield. She slowly raised her hand, and at the slightest motion, the eight mini-cannons let out a low hum, awaiting her command.
But that wasn't all. A visor made of interwoven red and black fragments formed over her eyes. This was not just protection—it granted her enhanced precision, locking onto every enemy in sight. Through the visor, her crimson pupils gleamed with an even sharper coldness.
One hundred thousand Slaughterers spread across the sky, engulfing every inch of space. Waves of energy surged toward Usagi, an overwhelming tide of destruction. Beams of light, artillery fire, and blade-like energy rifts converged into an inescapable net, seeking to consume her entirely. Yet, standing at the storm's heart, her eyes remained as resolute as frozen stars, unwavering.
The eight mini-cannons behind her activated in unison. Crimson and black energy coursed through their frames. With a faint hum, tracking beams burst forth like a torrential rain. These projectiles did not follow simple straight paths—they danced like meteors, carving elegant yet deadly arcs through the air, pursuing their targets relentlessly.
Wherever the beams passed, enemy attacks shattered effortlessly, energy waves crumbling like fragile paper. The black-red streaks relentlessly pursued their prey, bursting with searing destruction upon impact. No matter how the Slaughterers dodged, they could not escape this inevitable death.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The cannon blasts collided with the Slaughterers' attacks, unleashing a chain of deafening explosions. Flames erupted in the sky, illuminating the battlefield in bursts of brilliant yet merciless light. Yet, amidst the chaos, Usagi's counterattack remained relentless.
The black spheres embedded within the cannon seemed impervious to all energy surges, slipping through the flames untouched, aiming directly at the Slaughterers.
"Whoosh—Whoosh—"
Like unyielding crimson streaks, the mini-cannon blasts pierced through the enemy ranks, obliterating any that dared approach. Each impact scattered bodies and debris through the sky, yet the formation behind Usagi never faltered—an unrelenting machine of slaughter.
"Don't panic! The cannon can't fire forever—!" a Death Servant shouted in desperation. But before he could finish, eight tracking shots locked onto him. In the next instant, he was engulfed in a fiery explosion, erased from existence.
At the center of this barrage, Usagi stood emotionless, her cold gaze instilling fear in those who dared meet it. She raised her hand again, and with a subtle flick of her fingers, the eight mini-cannons adjusted their angles. The rain of cannon fire intensified, transforming into a hurricane of destruction that devoured the battlefield.
The Slaughterers' assault crumbled under the onslaught. Their relentless charge became futile against the unyielding light, while Usagi's counterattack remained precise, dismantling the enemy forces bit by bit until the battlefield became a burning inferno.
Her power surged without end, the fusion of red and black composing a requiem of death. One against one hundred thousand—Usagi showed no fear, standing as the most lethal presence on the battlefield!
Above Sonya, the sky appeared to tear apart, bathed in crimson flames. The once-peaceful night was now consumed by destruction and dread. The eight mini-cannons rained devastation like falling stars, ruthlessly cutting down any who dared to approach. The deafening echoes of explosions and destruction filled the heavens.
Floating in midair, Usagi's seemingly delicate figure radiated an overwhelming aura. The massive cannon fused to her twin blades burned like a pillar of fire, illuminating the entire cityscape. Every citizen of Sonya turned their eyes upward, gazes filled with terror and disbelief.
Chaos erupted among the people, overwhelmed by Usagi's sheer might.
"What... what is that?! My god, what kind of monster is this?!"
"It's an Ability User! An Ability User is fighting!"
"Quick! Inform the Watcher!"
Yet, Usagi remained unfazed, deaf to the panicked cries below. She focused solely on the enemies swarming before her, her burning crimson eyes reflecting only battle and defiance. The colossal cannon at her side radiated an overwhelming crimson glow, like a war god descending upon the battlefield.
"Ultra Cannon: Lunar Usagi Overdrive!!!"
With a furious roar, the gigantic cannon unleashed its devastating energy, tearing through the sky in a blinding eruption. The crimson beam cut across the battlefield like a divine execution, reducing the incoming Slaughterers to nothingness.
The immense recoil sent Usagi's body staggering backward, but she gritted her teeth, steadying herself. The crimson beam continued its path of obliteration, leaving only destruction in its wake.
Though fatigued, Usagi refused to falter. Her twin blades pulsed with renewed energy, while the eight mini-cannons behind her remained poised for another strike. As she soared through the battlefield, she became an unstoppable force—a crimson rabbit dancing through death, weaving a symphony of fire and steel.
The sky above Sonya burned red, as the echoes of war and slaughter engraved this moment into the annals of history.
