"Damn it, what kind of monster is this!"
Dhuruv cursed under his breath.
His two summoned spirits had initially inflicted considerable damage on Mahoraga.
However, it wasn't long before the smaller spirit's attacks were directly repelled by Mahoraga's robust physique.
The Great Fish spirit was nearly killed by Mahoraga's slam.
"You old man don't even know what Mahoraga is?"
Uro Sakurako looked down on Dhuruv with disdain.
But despite her scornful words, Uro Sakurako was also filled with caution towards Mahoraga.
She hadn't held back in her previous attack.
Yet now, Mahoraga stood there as if nothing had happened.
"You shameless little girl, do you want to die?!"
Dhuruv, already angered, directly summoned his spirit in response to Uro Sakurako's provocation.
"Enough!"
Tamamo-no-Mae shouted sternly.
She had noticed that while Uro Sakurako treated her well, her attitude towards others was quite poor.
Of course, the same applied to Ishiryu.
This team is difficult to manage.
Tamamo-no-Mae thought to herself.
"That is the legendary strongest summoned spirit, Mahoraga. It's not something you can defeat by fighting alone."
Tamamo-no-Mae's gaze swept over Dhuruv and Uro Sakurako.
"Hmph."
Uro Sakurako snorted and turned away from Dhuruv.
Dhuruv also shifted his gaze back to Mahoraga.
The strongest summoned spirit?
The word "strongest" finally restored a bit of his pride.
Ding.
Mahoraga's wheel spun once more.
Just as Tamamo-no-Mae was about to direct the fight, Mahoraga decided not to wait any longer.
Mahoraga stomped its legs, each step crushing the earth.
The Demon-Slaying Sword on its right arm was raised high and thrust towards the Great Tengu.
In Mahoraga's judgment.
The Great Tengu and Kuromushi were the easiest enemies to kill.
The Great Tengu was startled.
It flapped its wings continuously, and soon the Great Tengu flew a hundred meters into the sky.
Dhuruv once again summoned the Great Fish spirit, which was taller than a building.
Mahoraga, having returned to its normal size, was knocked back by the suddenly appearing Great Fish spirit, but it didn't sustain any damage.
The Great Tengu grabbed with both hands, and a longbow appeared in its grasp.
Feathers transformed into arrows, which the Great Tengu nocked onto the bow.
Whoosh.
An arrow was shot, and propelled by the strong wind, it flew towards Mahoraga.
Mahoraga, which had just landed, sensed the attack.
Just as it was about to dodge, Mahoraga was controlled by Uro Sakurako, who had suddenly appeared behind it, using a cursed technique.
Uro Sakurako grabbed Mahoraga forcefully, and the distorted space prevented Mahoraga from escaping the arrow's attack range.
Whoosh.
Under the full-power attack of the Special Grade Cursed Spirit Great Tengu, Mahoraga's body was successfully pierced by an arrow.
Ding.
The wheel spun again.
Uro Sakurako, who had intended to fling Mahoraga away, suddenly found herself unable to budge it.
Whoosh.
This is bad!
Uro Sakurako's heart skipped a beat, and she violently arched her body backward like a bridge.
The distorted Demon-Slaying Sword grazed Uro Sakurako's forehead.
Uro Sakurako dodged the Demon-Slaying Sword that had almost cut her in half.
The next second, Mahoraga's massive foot kicked her.
Crack.
The sound of breaking bones echoed.
Mahoraga kicked Uro Sakurako into the sea.
Just then, a volley of arrows rained down from the sky.
Puff puff puff.
Arrows pierced Mahoraga's body, and the strong winds ravaged its form.
The Great Tengu, having understood Mahoraga's defense through a single probing attack, began to continuously inflict damage.
Mahoraga swung its sword to intercept the arrow rain, and two disgusting insects, holding a ball, crashed into Mahoraga's right hand.
This was the effect of the Special Grade Cursed Spirit Kuromushi's Cursed Technique, Earth Worms Crawling.
Immediately, a dozen more arrows struck Mahoraga.
From a distance, Eiji, who was engaged in a physical combat duel with Ishiryu, inwardly cursed his bad luck.
One-on-one, none of them were a match for Mahoraga.
However, when a group of them attacked together, they posed a considerable threat to Mahoraga.
The reason was simple: Mahoraga couldn't adapt.
Each person's Jujutsu might require more than just one type of adaptation.
For instance, Mahoraga had to adapt twice to Dhuruv's two Summoned Spirits.
From Mahoraga's feedback, Eiji knew there were several more things it needed to adapt to.
This feeling was somewhat similar to Eiji's own method of buying time back then.
At that time, Eiji had desperately entangled Mahoraga with his Shadow Servants and Summoned Spirits. Although he didn't inflict much damage, he successfully prevented Mahoraga from moving freely for a short period.
It was a case of "two fists can't beat four hands."
The current situation was somewhat similar, and most importantly, the enemies Mahoraga was facing now were much stronger than Eiji's Summoned Spirits back then.
I must buy Mahoraga time to adapt.
Eiji made a decision in an instant.
"Hey, don't look around! Sandblast Shockwave!"
While Eiji was contemplating a strategy, Ishiryu wasn't idle.
He restrained Eiji's movements with his hands, preventing him from retreating.
Then, he thrust his head forward, and the cannon on his pompadour charged up.
He unleashed a point-blank, face-to-face bombardment on Eiji.
Not good!
Eiji's heart leaped in alarm. The shadows beneath his feet churned, and he instantly sank into them.
Seeing this, Ishiryu stopped charging and fired the cannon.
The immense impact drove Eiji headfirst into the shadows.
"Tch, playing that trick again."
Seeing Eiji disappear into the shadows, Ishiryu immediately fired curse-energy cannon after curse-energy cannon into the shadows.
After all, the shadows were Eiji's domain. Even if he was confident, he wouldn't willingly step into the opponent's advantageous territory.
"Huh?"
Ishiryu suddenly felt something was wrong.
The shadow beneath his feet suddenly bulged and then erupted like a volcanic eruption.
Eiji, his face covered in blood, emerged from the shadows.
"Maximum Technique: Ten Shadows Wheel!"
The Ten Shadows Wheel above Eiji's head began to spin.
A massive, constantly rotating sphere of shadow appeared on the ground.
"Nue, Tiger Grave!"
Nue and Tiger Grave emerged from the shadows.
"Chimera Beast: Tiger Hawk."
Tiger Grave and Nue merged. This time, to increase the Chimera Beast's aerial maneuverability, Eiji chose Nue as the main body, unlike with Qiongqi where Tiger Grave was the main body.
After the Tiger and Eagle fused, wind and thunder surged around him, and he instantly launched an attack towards the Great Tengu.
"Sandblast Shockwave!"
Seeing Eiji, who he had just injured, dare to ignore him now, Ishiryu's anger grew hotter.
"Orochi!"
From Ishiryu's shadow, Orochi suddenly appeared and bit down hard on Ishiryu.
Ishiryu's cannon fire also veered off course due to the sudden attack.
"Sandblast, damn it!"
Ishiryu was preparing to blow Orochi up with his cannon fire.
But Orochi clearly knew his intentions.
Orochi thrashed its body, then charged into the sea with Ishiryu.
Suddenly submerged in seawater and unable to breathe, Ishiryu's spellcasting was interrupted once again.
The shadows falling from the sky, under Eiji's control, transformed into countless arrows, completely engulfing the area where Tamamo-no-Mae and the others were.
