Along with Heracles's roar, dazzling light bloomed on his body.
In Satoru's eyes, this light gathered on Heracles's hands, feet, and back, forming some kind of thick protrusions.
"Missiles?"
With the help of the Six Eyes, Satoru immediately saw what those protrusions were.
"The sacred gear's ability is to cause explosions, so after Balance Breaker, the explosion power is further increased?"
"That's right! Let's start the second round!"
Heracles aimed the missiles formed after Balance Breaker at Satoru and began firing them continuously.
Roars constantly echoed, and the cursed energy within Satoru began to slowly decrease.
Looking at Heracles, who was constantly generating new missiles and bombing him, Satoru finally realized the enemy's tactic. Heracles was trying to forcibly exhaust his cursed energy by relying on his superior stamina and magic power.
"It seems there really isn't time to hesitate."
Satoru raised his right hand and made a gesture, the cursed energy on his body beginning to gather frantically.
"That's right! This is what makes a battle interesting!"
Heracles's laughter became even happier. "Gojo! Use your Domain!"
"Let me see whether your Domain is stronger, or my Balance Breaker is stronger!"
"I personally think I'm stronger."
As Satoru replied, the cursed energy on his body suddenly dissipated, and the raised right hand also slowly lowered.
"But now it seems there's no chance to test it."
"Huh? What do you mean!"
Heracles instantly became enraged. "Why aren't you using your Domain! Are you looking down on me!"
"No, his meaning is that there is no longer any need for that."
Just then, Tatsuma's voice unexpectedly sounded behind Heracles.
Heracles's pupils contracted, his originally boiling fighting spirit extinguished instantly as if falling into an ice cave.
Seemingly realizing what had happened, he suddenly turned around and punched towards his back. However, before that, a cold light streaked through the air first.
Swish!
The tempered steel body was torn apart in an instant, and Heracles's arm flew into the air.
After that, the demon sword covered with Power of Destruction did not stop at all, turning and slicing downwards towards Heracles.
Swish! Swish!
Just like his right arm, Heracles's legs were easily severed. In just an instant, three of his limbs were gone.
Unspeakable pain instantly filled Heracles's mind, and his eyes were covered with bloodshot veins.
Heracles let out a miserable scream, and the Balance Breaker on his body could no longer be maintained, dissipating into white light.
"Quiet down."
Tatsuma raised his weapon again and mercilessly cut off Heracles's only remaining left arm.
"If you do that, he'll just scream more fiercely, won't he?" Satoru walked over and complained.
"I'm just finishing him off normally, ensuring he completely loses the ability to resist."
After piercing Heracles's abdomen with the demon sword and pinning him to the ground, Tatsuma activated Senjutsu to attack Heracles's spirit, causing his mental defenses to collapse rapidly.
However, just as he was preparing to further probe Heracles's memories, a magic circle suddenly appeared on his body.
The next second, a projection of a young man appeared before Tatsuma and Satoru.
"It's even more tragic than I imagined."
His gaze swept over the demon sword in Tatsuma's hand and Heracles's limbless body on the ground.
Georg pushed up his glasses and spoke slowly, "Nice to meet you, Red Dragon Emperor. Interested in making a deal with me?"
"No, get lost."
Tatsuma snorted coldly and shattered the magic circle on Heracles's body.
"Huh? Aren't you going to listen?"
Satoru, who had originally been ready to probe the other party's identity, had a subtle expression.
"There's nothing worth listening to. All he wants to say is probably to give me some benefits and ask me to let this guy go."
Tatsuma didn't have the habit of showing mercy. For enemies like Heracles who actively come looking for trouble, his attitude is very simple. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
"Since you want to kill me, then be prepared to be killed."
After collecting the necessary information from Heracles's mind, Tatsuma raised the demon sword again.
Swish!
[Congratulations! You have successfully defeated Heracles and obtained the purple trait 'Variant Detonation'.]
[Variant Detonation (Purple): When activating an attack, an additional explosion damage is dealt. The power of the damage is determined by the injected energy.]
Average.
Tatsuma glanced at the new trait's effect, then threw it into his storage, preparing to use it as upgrade material.
"Actually, I think it would have been better to leave him alive rather than killing him directly."
Satoru withdrew his gaze from Heracles's corpse and looked at Tatsuma.
"What are you planning to do next?"
"What are you referring to?"
"Of course, Principal Gakuganji. You shouldn't be planning to let him off so easily, right?"
"Of course, it won't end that easily."
Tatsuma chuckled softly and walked in front of Satoru.
"What are you planning to do? Are you going to stop me?"
"That depends on the situation."
Satoru shrugged, "Although I don't have much fondness for that old man, acting against him without evidence would still be very troublesome."
"I understand."
Tatsuma raised his right hand, clenched his fist, and swung down.
Boom!
When Satoru reacted, he was already lying on the ground.
"How is that possible!"
Satoru's pupils contracted, his face showing shock.
"How did you ignore Infinity?"
"Not ignoring, but penetrating."
Tatsuma came before Satoru, activating the Boosted Gear's penetration ability again.
"When I saved Yuji before, you said you owed me a favor, right? Since that's the case, let's use this favor here. Please obediently fall asleep."
Bang!
[Congratulations on successfully defeating Satoru Gojo, obtaining the Red trait 'Six Eyes']
[Six Eyes (Red): Gain a 360-degree ultra-long-range vision without blind spots, while greatly improving control over energy, allowing for deeper fine manipulation.]
