213: Together

Together

Vital Burst's features were extremely dark by now as he jeered at him, "Actually, I don't know who you are nor do I care… but now that you've had the rotten luck of meeting us..." Pausing entirely, he suddenly raised his head and directly staring into the Island ugly's eyes, he stressed, "You have to die!"1

The next thing that could be perceived was that Vital Burst was already charging toward the Island ugly while some traces of vaporation began to rise from all over his body.

Then, he was already upon the Island ugly as he sent a punch toward his face.

Bam!

The moment they clashed, a muffled noise reverberated around the area. Seeing the result of his punch though, Vital Burst was surprised because he realized his opponent had stopped his punch by grabbing his sturdy fist inside his palm!

'He's strong.' Surprised, Vital Burst pondered as he directed another punch his way.

Bam!

Seeing the same result happen again, Vital Burst didn't seem to be that astonished anymore as he sent a series of punches one after another.

Bam! Bang! Bam!

He continued his chain of attacks when the Island ugly abruptly muttered, "That's enough." And immediately, he sent a hook toward Vital Burst's stomach.

Bang!

Vital Burst was almost successful in dodging the hook, but unfortunately, he was late by a slight period of time and in this timeframe, that slight margin of error decided the final result as his fist connected to his opponent's stomach which pushed him back for around two meters before Vital Burst was at last successful in being able to restore his balance and stop. There was also a line of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

His face was so dark after receiving that hook that his features almost couldn't be recognized anymore. However, the steam that was rising from his whole body until now suddenly doubled in amount!

Psss~

"Now you did it!" He cried as he rushed at him once again. This time, it was the Island ugly's turn to be astounded because his speed had risen to an abnormal degree as he instantly arrived in front of him and sent a heavy jab at his face.

Bang!

Although the Island ugly was successful in defending against the jab, much to his shock, he was pushed two meters back as even a trail of his feet were drawn on the ground itself!

'How can he become so powerful all of a sudden!' Stunned, the Island ugly thought to himself with his eyes wide open.

Regardless, Vital Burst wasn't going to give him any time to be flabbergasted, so he immediately arrived in front of him and attacked once more.

Bang!

This time, the Island ugly was punched away even further as he felt even more power behind Vital Burst's iron-like fist!

'His strength is increasing by every second, I must finish this as soon as possible… or else, I'm not gonna be able to even react to his attacks!' As this notion popped up in his head, the Island ugly didn't hesitate any longer and directly connected to the azure ring on his finger and shouted out loud, "Activate!"

Instantly, the azure ring began to melt as it covered his entire right fist immediately.

Shhh~

Soon, the shape of a silver glove began to take form on his right fist and its fingers. However, that was not the end because next, his five fingers transformed into five golden claws.

Afterward, on the back of each finger, a line of azure light appeared which continued all the way until they all connected to one another at the back of his palm.

"Burn!" He said.

And with that command, his golden claws began to lit in amber flames which covered the whole area of his sole silver glove. Though the amber flames were the most intense in the claws area as it became less intense on the palm area.

Seeing this bewildering transformation, even Dusty Mercury who was staying still at a corner while watching the whole battle in a very relaxed manner had a look of disbelief on her face as she murmured, "Just what the fuck is that?! Some kind of advanced technology? Or maybe a trait?"

After the flaming claw gloves were ready for attack, not wasting a second more, the Island ugly charged at Vital Burst.

Seeing those amber flames burning while covering his sharp claws, an intense sense of doom appeared inside Vital Burst's mind as he had this feeling that if the claws connected to his body, he would be in grave danger, maybe a life-dangering one!

So, pushing himself even further, an even intenser steam rose from his body!

By now, the Island ugly was already upon Vital Burst as he slashed with his claw at his body.

Sss~

However, what happened next made the Island ugly's eyes go wide open because he witnessed that Vital Burst had easily dodged his attack and instead sent a counter-attack upset punch at his stomach the very next moment.

Bang!

This time, the Island ugly was incapable of comparing speeds with him as was sent flying away for a few meters before the force behind the punch finally ended and he dropped on the floor with a rather mutilated chest.

Pff~

All of a sudden, Vital Burst coughed out a mouth full of blood. It was clear that whatever he had done to get himself that powerful so fast was having a backlash on his body.

Nonetheless, not paying any attention to the strain that seemed to have wounded his body, Vital Burst charged at him again once again as he began kicking the Island ugly's fallen body non-stop.

Bam! Bang! Trgh!

Every strike was so powerful that a lot of damage was gradually accumulating on the Island ugly's body while he felt one part after another breakdown and get crushed inside his body.

'Fuck… it seems I won't be able to defeat him… if only I could make my claw-attack connect to his body directly!' Deliberating to this point, he unconsciously thought of his master, 'I hope he's not angry at me because of this.'

In the meantime, Virus had already laid down on his bed with his eyes shut off completely. It seemed as if he had long fallen asleep as an absolute silence was looming over the whole room.

However, his eyes abruptly opened widely with a strong light passing through them as he grunted in annoyance before starting to curse, "Ahhh fuck! I'm tired, why won't these monkeys allow me to sleep a bit! Damn it… no, they're not monkeys! They're flies! Flies!"

"Ah!" The golden beauty who was watching her master's peacefully sleeping face in a relaxed manner was greatly startled and dumbfounded as she gazed agape witnessing this unexpected 180 percent change in Virus' temperament.

"What… what happened, master? Did you have a nightmare?" Still a bit scared by the sudden turn in her master's behaviour, she inquired in a muddled manner.

"Sigh… no, just two flies invading my atoll and the Island ugly incapable of dealing with them, that's all. It appears I have to show up myself." Notwithstanding, regaining his calm almost instantly, he summarized the situation.

"Hmm… how about master sleep and I go deal with them personally?" Looking at his tired expression, the golden beauty couldn't stop herself from suggesting this solution while looking at him worriedly.

Seeing her worried look, Virus was a bit moved as he thought unconsciously, 'Cute…' And just like that, his demeanor and temperament improved a lot as he articulated, "No… these two seems to be rather strong. We should both go. Together."
