Lord Shadow

There is a reason why those twenty-four people ganged up on Raymond but not her.

Raymond…. they could kill.

They are enemies and the World Government might be mad, but they could withstand it

But her…. she is more valuable alive then dead. If she is dead, who knows what Death Monarch would do.

Some of those who participated in the attack might survive if they ran to the edge of the world or to some forbidden zones where Death Monarch couldn't find them, but those who kills her, is basically also killing themselves.

They could hide for a day, a week, a month, but could they hide for years and decade? They could not

Nobody wanted to know the consequences of angering Death Monarch.

It's different than the hunt that Death Monarch sanctioned. Killing her is making things personal.

The other reason is because she has Houyi Bow.

The people before not only know it is very hard to try to fight Sofia because of her bow

Even if one of the three Divine Comprehension leveler wanted to kill her or to imprison her, she still has an advantage.

There are still nine arrows. And she could still use nine strike that could even deter an Essence Creation leveler.

The stronger she became, the stronger her bow and arrow became. And she is Raymond trump card.

And right now she is charging her bow.

That is why she has to hide.

Her energy is now decreasing in an unprecedented rate.

From Disk Formation pinnacle realm, her power level dropped to Disk Formation high realm and then to middle realm to lower real and then back to Seed Forming.

Her bow is now surrounded by gales of wind and the Laws of the world around Sofia and the bow is distorting.

Time and Space bends and the elements went amuck.

But, the scope of this change and distortion is only in the radius of three meters around her. Sofia restrain the effect from spreading out too high or too wide.

She did not want to attract the attention of Kaiju. Not until the attack is ready

But her eyes are looking at Kaiju coldly, her bow is raised. The arrow is still inside her quiver.

'It is not time. Raymond. You still have to hold on' While Sofia is preparing top attack Kaiju, Raymond has already ready to go again

Even though he is battered all over, he knows he could not stay down.

If not, Kaiju would beat him until he could not get up. And Raymond eyes is different from other times is very scary

His hand is still in that boxing position.

Kaiju laughs echoes all around.

Then the laugh stopped. Kaiju eyes turns fierce again.

He is ready to fight again and Raymond even in his current condition do not back down. Raymond coughed a bit of blood from his mouth.

But he finally confirmed it. It is only after clashing with each other and feeling the prowess of Kaiju punch that he is finally convinced of his theory.

It makes senses that Kaiju appears six months ago and why he was silent before that period of time.

'You are not human' Hearing this Kaiju did not show any ounce of surprise.

There is a smirk on the edge of his mouth.

'It seems you have realized' Kaiju simply answered it with something that is without a doubt an affirmation

Even though their distance is one hundred feet from each other, they could hear each other very well.

'Hence, you should stay down and not provoke me'

Raymond only smiles. The words he said still lingers. And that smile is provoking Kaiju.

Like he said, unless Kaiju kills him, he would do this all day.

'A pity' Kaiju said

Kaiju took a step, the space around him seems to shakes as he traverses the distance of ten feet in one step, taking another step, another ten feet has been passed.

Raymond did not seem to care that Kaiju come closer and closer to him.

Each time, Kaiju moves ten feet forward, his momentum increases. The aura around him become so thick, it is like a solid wall.

His aura wipes out the grass on the ground, repels the wind and distorts the space and time around his body.

Each time he moves even a slight part of his body, there is roaring sound from it. Raymond knows why the effect is so exaggerated.

Most people in the world uses the energy to control the elements.

Magical energy if one had to categorize it. But there is another practice that could sometimes ignore the energy of the world.

The practice of the body refinement.

Of perfecting the physique.

Kaiju body probably is even harder than normal divine artifact.

Raymond could only think of only one person in this world that could match Kaiju physique and that person is Death Monarch.

Raymond sighed. Because he knows that this is not something that Kaiju practices consciously. It is innate.

'You are a- 'before Raymond could finish his word, Kaiju had already appeared only a few feet away from Raymond.

And a few feet are enough

Kaiju is ready to kill. His killing intent billowed to the sky, his eyes turns red and his face expression is full of fierceness

'DIE!' he shouted like it is proclamation from the heaven.

Kaiju clenches his fist, a powerful explosion erupted from the act of him clenching fist.

This time, there is also something different

thunder roars up in the sky. Lightning appears, cloud and wind gathers.

Raymond could feel it but he did not see it. His eyes are focus on that fist that is about to come down on him.

BOOM! BOOM!

The thunder roars like it is heralding the arrival of something. The lightning went wild. The patch of clouds above Kaiju head is like a domain of thunder and lightning

The lightning, countless of them gathers and combine with each other and then it fell from the clouds and shrouded Kaiju with its power

All of this happens in the span of two second.

The lightning swirls around Kaiju hand. The same hand that is now in the shape of a fist. In that time span of a few second, the lightning created a powerful aid for Kaiju

Kaiju smiles is wide and he punches forward

A roar of primordial beast seems to erupt the moment the fist is unleashed

thunder and lightning in the sky went wild.

'A dragon!' Raymond shouted the word, so that Sofia could hear.

Even as the thunder roars and the fist create rushing wind sounds, his shout drowns all of these sounds so that Sofia could prepare.

Kaiju only laughed

A domineering dragon roar. The sky seems to be splitting apart and the entire island shakes.

Small hills crumble in the distance and the forest in the radius of thirty kilometers of Kaiju flattened from the roar

The roar was accompanied with a blast of energy that pluck out grass pluck out tress and all kind of things that become its obstacle.

It is like the coming of a divine apocalyptic wind that sweeps everything on its path.

Thunder and lightning seems to be attacking the island, the wind join in and bring about a powerful storm ripping trees from the ground, whipping out the ground, plucking it out from the Earth, flying towards the cyclones of storms.

A powerful pressure seems to erupt out of Kaiju fist, the dragon roar sounded continuously. But this time, Raymond is not like before

Before, he was truly caught of guard.

Now, he is fighting back.

His eyes shine brightly and his fighting desire is burning in his heart.

Booming sound and shockwave exploded after one another, the silhouette of two people could be seen travelling in high speed

Wherever these two silhouettes pass by, there is a shockwave that follow, creating blast of heat and destruction

Raymond traded punch after punch with Kaiju. Gritting his teeth, his veins is tense and blood is spurting out from his wound.

The battle is very much a brute battle. There is no strategy, no moves, only brute force clashing with each other.

Wherever the forces of these two power passes, the area vaporized. And before they could inflict more damage, they would already be dozens of feet away, trading blows with each other.

It almost seems like the shockwave is a ripple that connected with each other

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOOM!

Sounds of explosion and shockwave blast become louder at every passing second, golden blood splattered all over the trails.

The trail of battle could easily be deduced as it is a path of desolation and death.

They did not know this but outside of this island, looking and trying to peer through the wind barriers are the pirates and someone with a golden mask.

But they could not see anything.

But they did hear the sound of thunder and see the bolt of lightning that seems to gather around the area of the island.

They might not see anything but they could guess that a fierce battle is happening on the island right now

Raymond and Kaiju however did not have time to think about anything else other than the fist that they keep trading with each other

Even though they move in a speed that surpasses sound, they could still see each other face expression.

Kaiju seems particularly excited while Raymond also has a smile on his face.

Raymond smile is an act of bravado. But as for Kaiju….it might be that he simply likes fighting. That would track with certain trait of a dragon.

Speed is relative. If you move in the same speed with the other, everything that person do would look like normal speed to you.

And that is how it looks like for both Raymond and Kaiju.

But to those who could not comprehend this speed, they could only see silhouettes and blast of shockwave that resulted

With each steps that these two people take, they move ten feet with each steps, and each ten feet is a scene of desolation.

The monsters in the forest all wanted to run, the life in the rivers and lake shudders. Some fly to the sky wanting to leave the scene of the battle

Some burrow deeper into the ground and some run far away from the forest, rushing fast

The monsters and beast and lifeforms that did not have the chance to run would turn into ashes

Kaiju laughs in every second of the battle.

He enjoys it.
