DxD: The Holy Knight! Chapter 55 55: Jaggernaut drive

"You are the current red dragon emperor!?"

When their issues had just been sorted out, Kuroka started causing trouble again.

Kuroka had spent a lot of ti with Vali and was very sensitive to the aura of dragon power.

Unknowingly, she felt the aura of a dragon coming from him. Most importantly, in terms of its quality, it was obviously at the sa level as Vali's.

There are not many dragon species that have the aura of a heavenly dragon like Albion.

Other than the red dragon emperor, Draig.

She was, after all a mber of Vali's team, and so naturally she knew the white dragon emperor well.

She could feel clearly that this dragon power was the exact opposite of the white dragon emperor's light wings.

Only the holder of the longinus, the red dragon emperor's gauntlet had this power in the world.

Kuroka found it hard to believe looking at Issei who was only a low class devil.

"Yes, I'm the red dragon emperor, here see my gauntlet."

Issei smiled smugly and revealed his sacred gear not knowing the strange look Kuroka was giving him.

Yasuhiro had been the center of attention ever since he returned and Issei being his brother was a supporting character at best.

The only thing that made him feel superior was the boosted gear. It was the one thing that gave him an edge on his brother.

During this ti he toughened his body with the intensive training of Yuuto. The power that was amplified by the sacred gear was enough for him to move from a low class to a starting middle class in a short ti.

It was enough to make him proud.

"I do feel bad for Vali. His rival, the red dragon emperor is only low rank devil in strength."

"You might be the weakest red dragon emperor in history."

Kuroka's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Issei's head, snuffing out the pride born in his heart.

As his master, Rias did not want her servant to be belittled like that and instinctively wanted to speak up but she didn't know what to say.

She didn't want to admit it, but it was just as Kuroka had said.

Issei lacked strength.

If he wasn't lucky enough to be chosen by sacred gear, he'd be utterly useless.

This made people realize that not every red dragon emperor was a living powerhouse.

"Who is Vali?"

"The current white dragon emperor, and also your enemy."

Yasuhiro butted in.

Issei's expression was a little unpleasant.

He just got called the weakest red dragon emperor in history, and a rival just popped out.

Judging by their tone, it was not difficult to tell that this so called white dragon emperor was powerful.

Rias looked at Issei in concern.

The white dragon emperor and the red dragon emperor, their duels across history had been chronicled countless tis in the underworld's history.

At the sa ti, it also affected many other pantheon forces and the results were all tragic.

"There's nothing to worry about in fact. That guy is not as strong as you think. In my opinion, there isn't much difference between you and him."

Kuroka rolled her eyes hearing Yasuhiro's words.

She was afraid that everyone here wasn't that different in his eyes.

All of them were the kind that could be beaten in one move.

"Vali himself is not that strong, just at the level of an ultimate class."

"What are you talking about?" Issei had just breathed a sigh of relief but he couldn't believe his ears when he heard his brother.

What did it an that he wasn't strong and had only ultimate class strength?

How common did it beco to describe the power of such monster?

His master Rias was only a high class devil, soone he had to look up to.

If he had that strength, then that ant he was on the sa level as his brother?

In their minds, everyone including himself felt Yasuhiro's strength should be at ultimate class.

They completely disregarded the aning of Yasuhiro's previous words.

"Tch, but that was only when Vali didn't use his sacred gear. Even among maou class powerhouses, Vali wielding his sacred gear is still considered strong."

"A maou class powerhouse!"

Sona and Rias were shocked by those few words. As pureblooded devil nobles from the underworld, they understood the aning behind these words even more.

"He's THAT strong?!"

Rias muttered to herself.

After all, he was the white dragon emperor, but the power of an ultimate class was still within her acceptable range, but ...

On the surface of the world, Maous were top tier combatants, and so pantheons main gods were nothing more than that.

Take the underworld for example, among the 72 pillars, there weren't many pureblood devil nobels with the strength of a maou, in fact they were extrely rare.

The last war among the three factions made the devil race's strength plumt but it also showed how scarce maou class were, no matter which faction they belonged to.

"Already afraid of his strength? Now Vali has even completed the juggernaut drive."

Yasuhiro felt the previous information wasn't explosive enough so he imdiately released an even more info.

"Juggernaut drive!?"

Issei had, apparently, never heard of this term before, having an impression of entire unfamiliarity with it.

"You don't even know about the juggernaut drive? You haven't talked with that dragon, have you?"

Issei was even more of a disappointnt for Kuroka, he was hopeless and beyond salvation.

Issei looked down at the boosted gear in his hand and felt a wave of sha. First ti he'd heard that a dragon was sealed inside.

Yasuhiro shook his head.

"Normal sacred gears would reach their limits when developed to the point of a balance breaker like yours."

"However, the Longinus have evolved past the balance breaker. By releasing the power of past holders sealed within the gear. You can achieve a form called the jaggernaut drive."
