| The Cyber Ascension | Ganchio-Sae Arc 8 | Volume 8 | Chapter 84 : The Lunar Cage Death Cell |
Sanji Youta roared in fury, veins bursting along his arms as he hurled punch after punch—each blow cracking reality itself.
The air screamed.
Mountains trembled.
The barrier warped violently.
But then—
Karasuya raised one hand.
The world froze.
A deep, cosmic hum echoed as space itself folded inward.
A massive, spherical domain erupted outward—99 meters in all directions—the ground beneath transforming into silver-black stone etched with glowing lunar sigils.
The sky vanished.
Stars ignited above them.
A void-like cosmos replaced reality.
Karasuya:
"Lunar Cage — Death Cell."
Sanji Youta's eyes widened.
His next punch… slowed.
His power began to bleed away.
The violent red aura around him flickered, distorted—then stabilized at a far weaker output.
Sanji Youta clenched his teeth.
Sanji Youta:
"What… did you do?!"
Karasuya stepped forward—
his presence now crushing, his movement blurring beyond perception.
He vanished—
—and reappeared behind Sanji Youta in the same breath.
Karasuya:
"This domain enforces balance."
He placed a hand on Sanji Youta's shoulder.
Karasuya:
"If you are stronger than me… your power is reduced to my level."
Sanji's eyes widened.
Karasuya:
"If you are weaker… I rise to yours."
He leaned closer, voice cold and absolute.
Karasuya:
"In here… there is no god. No king. No hell."
The ground shattered beneath Sanji Youta's feet as gravity multiplied.
Karasuya:
"Only fairness."
Sanji Youta screamed as his body slammed into the ground, bones cracking under invisible pressure.
Sanji Youta:
"YOU DARE—!"
Karasuya raised one finger.
The air collapsed.
A shockwave exploded outward, carving a crater across the lunar floor.
Sanji Youta's body skidded violently, blood spraying across the stone.
Outside the barrier—
Haruko covered her mouth.
Eirien felt his knees weaken.
Kiyoshi whispered in disbelief:
Kiyoshi:
"…He's not fighting him."
A pause.
Then—
Kiyoshi (horrified):
"He's controlling the rules of existence."
Inside the cage, Karasuya stood calmly as the artificial stars above rotated slowly.
He stared down at Sanji Youta—broken, furious, but not yet defeated.
Karasuya:
"Now… struggle."
The lunar sky pulsed violently.
Something far worse was about to happen.
