......
Uno ignored the two who were slowly turning into dust completely and focused his attention on the newcor who had just arrived.
This person was clearly around Shin’s and the others’ age, which signified that he was also a very young expert.
He was wearing a black leather jacket over a black shirt, which he paired with durable yet stretchable jeans and combat boots.
His style was quite simple yet also stylish at the sa ti, especially with that sowhat spiky hairstyle that he had.
He was carrying a huge ntal case with his right hand, which was hanging on his back like a regular office bag despite its size. A single look at this tal case was more than enough to tell those who saw it how heavy it was, yet this person was carrying it like it was nothing.
Rowan Blade, one of the brightest stars and most talented among all the young executioners of the Black Serpent Mafia.
Rowan glanced at the crumbling body of Feng for a while before shaking his head. "I have already warned him not to consu those cursed pills, no matter what, since it will spell his death right after taking them."
After ’mourning’ for his friend for a couple of seconds, Rowan finally cast his gaze toward Uno, who seed to be watching him with full interest.
"It has been a while, Uno. It seems like you have yet to change a few of your habits," he said, seemingly greeting Uno.
He addressed Uno as such for a different aning. He called the latter with such a na, not because he was aware of Uno’s real identity or anything. Instead, it was the title that they had given him during their days in the training program.
They might be from different training camps, but they all ca from the sa batch. Moreover, the Black Serpent Mafia was regularly conducting an exchange between the training camps, making sure that the competitive nature of everyone was at the highest level.
Uno and Shin were almost ranked at the top during those exchanges. They were especially ruthless after the incident concerning Alyssa, where they dominated everyone in almost everything.
Shin was more active during the studying and training sessions, while Uno took over their body during combat and more serious trials.
With their combined efforts, it was only natural for them to dominate the rankings both in the Joker Training Camp and the exchanges between all the camps.
Uno was the title that they had given ’him’ since ’he’ always placed first in everything.
Uno wore a nonchalant smile while looking at Rowan before replying. "So long as it is, it piques my interest."
Bang!
Placing the heavy tal case that he was carrying, Rowan shook his head and continued. "Ah~! It will be better if you stay in the organization and don’t run away from us. We should be working with each other rather than facing like this."
"After all, none of us wants to be your enemy," he added with a slightly solemn tone.
Pssh!
At the sa ti, he pressed a couple of hidden buttons on the side of the tal case, opening it.
Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!
Not long after, it revealed a variety of swords. These swords seed to co from different branches of swords and were used with different styles.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
With a casual wave of his hand, the swords started flying out of the tal case one after another before floating right behind Rowan like his most loyal and obedient army.
Seeing this, Uno raised his brows a little, carrying a hint of interest. He then smirked before comnting. "Magnetism Superpowers and Steel Manipulation? Along with your decent talent in swords, this should be entertaining enough."
"Hmph!" Rowan did not say anything more and started his assault.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Pointing forward, the swords floating behind him suddenly flew forward and headed straight to Uno, who was maintaining the devious grin that he was wearing.
’Demonic Blade Codex: Hail of Swords’
Whoosh!
The flood of sword ford a formation mid-flight and linked the energies connecting them. They then spiraled and ford a sword twister while advancing toward their target.
Uno maintained his cool look while watching the incoming attack. This ti, he was not planning to play around, especially when reuniting with a decent ’sparring partner.’
Whoosh!
With a flick of his wrist, the sheathed black katana suddenly appeared in his left hand. Without further ado, he quickly grabbed the hilt of the sword and swiftly unsheathed it.
Shing!
Along with the imnse amount of Golden Sacred Qi he channeled instantaneously, he suddenly thrust the sword forward and released everything.
’Yin-Yang Cultivation Arts: Extre Yang – Breath of the Sun’
Boom!
A blazing beam of light suddenly shot out from the tip of his sword, cutting through the air before piercing through the spiraling storm of swords.
Whoosh!
The intense energy covering the spiraling swords was instantly annihilated right after the blazing beam passed through it.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
However, the hail of swords itself still continued to fly straight to Uno.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Seeing this, Uno suddenly twirled the black katana in his hand before his entire arm seed to have disappeared for a mont, along with it.
’Yin-Yang Cultivation Arts: Absolute Yin – Snowstorm Blade’
Shing!
There was a series of flashes cutting through the air that appeared for an instant, intertwining with one another while clashing against the descending swords.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Sparks flew in the air due to the repeated collisions between the two sides.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The swords that were accompanying the storm earlier were all deflected, either stabbed into the ground around Uno or sent flying back in the air after the collision.
Whoosh!
Right after Uno had deflected all the swords, he suddenly flipped the sword for another ti, shifting his grip in a reverse manner.
Shing!
He then spun and swung the sword behind him.
Rowan, who had disappeared amid the storm of swords earlier, suddenly appeared behind Uno and was slashing with a longsword in hand.
Boom!
The collision sent shockwaves in every direction.
The ground sank during the process and created a deep crater while sending rock fragnts into the air.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The swords stabbed on the ground around Uno had been freed as well during the prowess.
Rowan then extended his free hand, which released a string of pulses in the air. The surrounding then responded to his actions, suddenly pointing in their direction before swimming in the air like a school of aggressive barracudas in the sea.
Their target? It was obvious that Uno was standing before their owner.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Uno’s pupils made a quick sweep in the surroundings, marking all the incoming swords and reading their trajectories.
Whoosh!
However, while he was doing all that, Rowan suddenly advanced and swung the sword in his hand multiple tis, transforming it into a series of shadows swarming at Uno.
He might not have any idea of Uno’s current strength, but he was very familiar with the special abilities of the latter, especially when they repeatedly clashed with one another during camp exchanges.
Rowan would not give Uno enough ti to fully utilize those scary eyes of his, which would give him a lot of trouble.
Unfortunately, that swift glance was more than enough for Uno, given his current abilities.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Ding! Ding!
By utilizing his strange foot movents, Uno was able to dodge the combined attacks of his opponent and those swords. As for those who managed to sneak through his movents, he blocked them with the sword and the sheath in his hands.
"Still a monster, huh?" comnted Rowan after seeing that even this was not enough to force Uno into a corner.
"Then, let’s pick up the pace!" he said before extending his free hand once again, sending another invisible ripple in every direction.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Those swords that were sent further away were pulled back as well, adding to the mix of the flying swords around the two.
At the sa ti, Rowan started executing a series of more complicated techniques while attacking Uno.
Whoosh!
Shing! Shing!
Seeing the more intense series of attacks and the more violent storm of swords, Uno knew that he had to put up more effort in this.
Swoosh!
There was a glint in his eyes, which suddenly turned sharp. This was the indication that he was planning to use his ’Foresight’ Talent.
Right after the activation of the talent, the world around him seed to have beco a blank plane filled with gridlines.
Within this world, Uno could see everything more clearly and predict the movents of everything that was within it.
It did not matter if they were objects, living beings, or energies filling the air – nothing could escape his eyes within this world.
The whole world seed to be within his observation and under his control under this special state.
Boom!
Right after he activated this talent, a strong and heavy pressure suddenly erupted from his body, producing an absolute being that towered over everything within the mortal world.
