Chapter 2431 One Critical Attack
An attack to end the battle.
One that would define the future of the Kandrian Empire and all of East Panama.
And yet, he didn't land the attack.
No.
The one to land it was Rui.
BOOOM!!!
CRACK CRACK CRACK!
A thundering Yin-Yang Spear empowered by Flowing Canon and Outer Convergence devastated Ieyasu's ribcage, breaking some of his bones.
He shook.
Not from the impact or the pain.
But from the shock.
The shock of not being able to read Rui's mind anymore.
He stared at Rui in horror as he struggled to discern his thoughts. Try as he might, the trusty sensitivity to minds that he had been born with was failing him for the first time in his entire life. It shook him.
He stared at Rui with horror in his eyes.
"How did you—!"
BAM!
Ieyasu staggered as his nose broke from the jab that struck his face.
He didn't see that jab coming.
Despite possessing a predictive model on Rui, he didn't see the jab coming.
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
Rui's expression turned fierce as he blasted Ieyasu with attack after attack. There was no hint of arrogance in his fists.
BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM!!!
Rui blasted him with fierce aggression, attack after attack, as Ieyasu defended himself as if his life depended on it.
And it did.
Of the two of them, Rui was in a worse condition.
His stamina was almost entirely depleted. He could feel his body slipping as his vision grew increasingly hazy and blurry from the sheer amount of blood loss.
He had suffered far more damage.
There wasn't much time left. If he failed to not only equalize the battle quickly but also take Ieyasu down before the battle ended, then the Kandrian Empire was doomed.
It was not enough to survive.
He also needed to kill Tokugawa Ieyasu once and for all.
If Ieyasu survived and returned to the alliance, then they would gain access to the power of breakthroughs since everybody had seen him copy Rui. There would be no way to keep it from them anymore.
BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
Ieyasu's expression grew grave and severe as the reality of the battle finally dawned on him past his emotional shock.
The combination of the VOID algorithm and the SOUL System was too much. So long as he couldn't deal with these two powerful systems of thought, he would never be able to defeat Rui.
Yet, Ieyasu, despite his emotional turmoil, sensed Rui's physical weakness.
Profuse bleeding from the countless punctures in his body inflicted by the Vacuum Palms from before. More broken bones than intact.
Torn skin, flesh, and muscles from the Gyroblast Fists.
A single realization dawned on Ieyasu. Rui was just one critical attack away from defeat.
That was all it took. That realization shook him out of his turmoil, birthing a ferocious determination.
One critical attack.
That was all.
That was all he needed.
