[For the love of Chaos, what’s the point of a super powerful cannon if we can’t use it?! It’s even being environntally supercharged!,] Hurricroak complained while smacking the aforentioned cannon.
[It’s not our fault, it’s because of all that concentrated Dragon Force,] Frosttusk pointed out as the voice of reason.
[I know, but bullshit!]
[Calm down, Hurricroak. We just need to figure out a weak spot,] Nepherage inford her.
After Tor___ made his grand sacrifice play, the amount of [Chaos] in the waters of the [Abyssal Lands], at least around Undertow, skyrocketed to an absurd degree.
This was the first ti in their short existences that any of the kaijin felt this much [Chaos] in the environnt, including even the [Library of Nowhere] and that weird mont involving the [Storm Queen’s Galleon].
As such, the kaijin couldn’t help but want to flex their newfound powers and really give it to the [Shadow Sovereign].
Unfortunately, they couldn’t.
Due to the aforntioned concentration of [Chaos], Tor___ had managed to suppress the [Shadow Sovereign]’s dragon force into two places.
First, the giant beam of energy that was hamring down on Tor____’s defensive ability as he kept walking forward.
Second, an area that was about one to two feet around the [Shadow Sovereign]’s body.
In other words, the kaijin were unable to to lay a single finger on the [Shadow Sovereign] due to all of the dragon force being actively concentrated around it.
Regardless of whether they launched an attack from a distance or fired themselves at the chanical bastard with the cannon to get close, the kaijin’s attacks would simply bounce off of the skin barrier of dragon force.
This was the first ti the kaijin had ever felt completely useless.
Hell, they at least had a chance to deal damage to that Grub abomination guy by...
By...
Wait a minute.
[Hey guys...do you think we’re able to do combination attacks on our own?,] Hurricroak asked.
[What, like we simultaneously release attacks that rge with each other? A coordinated attack?]
[Not like that, Frosttusk. I an like...when the maestro uses the Godoku Gourd with us as the payload. You think we can do that without him?,] Hurricroak proposed.
[Oh.]
To briefly explain the difference between Hurricroak’s proposal and what Frosttusk was thinking, it can be best compared to the difference between multiplication and addition...and values.
A coordinated attack simply stacks the attack power of all the warriors together, because they’re using similar moves, while a fused attack multiples it all together because they’re incredibly different moves, which leads to weird shit.
Many warrior groups have attempted to perform fusion attacks in the past, with middling results. However, the kaijin had a surefire way to do this in the form of the [Godokue Gourd].
There was just one problem.
[Our Lord’s still fighting that angelic knock-off though.]
[I know, that why I suggested we do it ourselves.]
[Ah.]
At this mont in ti, Zhen Liu was unable to facilitate their usual thod of combining their powers by shoving them into a magic toy-like gourd, as such, the kaijin would have to figure this out on their own.
And so far...they had one really bad idea, and one that required a bit more help.
[Well, I had this one idea back when I had arms,] Springerdermain tioned to the others. [But it would require Razorstella to be with us at the mont.]
[Why?,] Frosttusk asked.
[She would be the payload. Have you wondered what happened if we managed to launch her at mach ten speed?]
[When...when did you co up with this?,] Nepherage asked with genuine concerns at the idea of any of her fellow kaijin going that fast.
[Watched a movie involving robots.]
[Ah.]
[Then we go with my plan,] Hurricroak declared while pulling out a shamisen from who knows where. [We recreate the instance that allowed us to form Ragnarocker!]
[Whoa, what?!]
[Bad idea!]
[Whoa, what the fuck?]
Thanks to their shared spiritual connections, Springerdermain was aware that Hurricroak , Nepherage and Frosttusk had sohow combined into a singular, overwhelming force of nature. However, he was unclear as to how they did it.
Which was why he was surprised seeing Frosttusk and Nepherage, arguably the fiercest of the Ringmaster’s kaijin, acting in such a scared manner.
Whatever this thod was, it has to be incredibly daunting.
[Look, I got perfect pitch, so I should be able to recreate the sound that caused our bodies to get all wobbly,] Hurricroak boasted while tuning her instrunt.[After I play the note, we just have to deal with a couple seconds of pain and-]
[Couple seconds my giant frozen ass,] Frosttusk interjected in a surprisingly heated manner. [It felt like I was getting trampled by a thousand dragon-blooded mammoths one after the other! No way in this world or the next am I going through that again.]
[Besides that, you have tendency to get creative with your music,] Nepherage added. [One flare of creativity and you could make a note that causes to explode or sothing.]
[No, I won’t! I am way too much of a...wait a minute...what the fuck was that surge in energy right now?]
[I...I don’t know...]
[It feels...old?]
[Wait a minute, where are those neo-knights flying towards?]
...At the exact sa ti as the above scene...
Above the [Darkshell Citadel], Wave Breaker, Slug-at-arms and Shellvalier were still doing their damndest in the destroying the external turrets.
It took them awhile to figure out a thod to bring them down in an efficient manner, but they eventually managed to do so.
[Aim for the ones in the back now!]
[Which back?]
[My back!]
[Got it! Scavenger’s Art: Crazy Toxic Tentacle Dance!]
The shadow of a giant jellyfish-like monster appeared behind Slug-at-arms for a brief mont as the slug-like kaijin released a barrage of spear strikes against the turrets.
These strikes were anything but normal though.
None of these strikes were strong enough to break the turrets, but they were coated in a strong poison that was so caustic and toxic, that it might as well have been acid.
Acid that made the turrets soft enough for Shellvalier and Wave Breaker to go in for the kill.
[Hamring Geyser Fist!]
[Wavebreaker!]
BOOM! BOOM!
In rapid succession, a wave-like blast of sword energy and a giant fist ca crashing down on the turrets and rendered the extrusions into piles of sludge.
At this point in ti, the Neo Storm Knights had managed to wipe out half of the artillery points.
[Ya know, big sis, I can’t endlessly produce toxins like this,] Slug-at-arms complained in a slightly exasperated tone of voice. [Even I got limits.]
[Fret not, brother!,] Shellvalier laughed while patting Slug-at-arms’ back a bit harder than necessary. [We have already eradicated half of those annoying cannons! All we have to do now is dig out whover is powering that cannon and bring them to the captain! It’s a piece of cake!]
[Indeed, Shellvalier,] Wave Breaker agreed.[And perhaps when we do so, we’ll figure out a way to take down that chanical monstrosity.]
[I hope so...]
Looming above the Neo Storm Knights, the [Shadow Sovereign] was maintaining a continuous beam of energy that hamred constantly into Tor___’s monstrous body and shield.
Despite this continuous assault though, Tor____ managed to maintain a sturdy pace as he walked closer and closer into striking distance against the chanical monster.
[Ya think our predecessor will be able to get in close enough to settle the score for real?]
[I’m not sure, Slug,] Wave Breaker admitted. [Sir Tor___ has great defensive ability but his offensive skills are lacking. He’d need an absurd amount of power to...to...do you guys sense that?]
[Sense wha...oh.]
[Why does this feel so...familiar?]
At so point during the ongoing battle, several distinctive sources of [Chaos] began to appear one after the other.
While the Neo Storm Knights had yet to visualize such things, they recognizes that these sources didn’t spring up from out of nowhere.
Rather, from their perspectives, it felt as if several ancient wellsprings of power were suddenly renewed after a long and lonely drought.
And now these wellsprings were coverging on to one point: the air space above Tor____’s head.
[Hey...should we go and see what the heck is going on?]
[Probably? I an...it feels like we should be involved...what do you think big-and she’s going. Co on!]
Before Shellvalier and Slug-at-arms could co to a consensus, Wave Breaker had already began to making moves to convergence.
As the trio swam on, they began to glow with a dark blue light.
...
|Here ends the sync.|
...
[Is this...what...my brothers...had to handle...on their own?! Damn...no wonder...there was barely anything left...]
Despite having returned to [Chaos], despite growing over a hundred tis his original size, Tor____ could barely keep it together as he approached the [Shadow Sovereign] in a ponderous manner.
[No...no! I can do this! Just...a little...further...]
