On the street a hundred meters away from the commercial building.
"Hey, this isn't funny at all."
"When these two guys fight, don't they know how to hold back a little?"
Looking at the commercial building that had collapsed ahead and was being controlled by Telekinesis to smash towards Tatsuma, Joseph, standing on the street, sighed, feeling a headache coming on.
As an undercover agent planted by the government within Claw, his mission was to collect intelligence on Claw and provide assistance to the government at critical moments.
Just recently, after discovering that the Red Dragon Emperor had invaded Claw through surveillance, he left the headquarters immediately and reported the matter to the government. Thus, he received a new mission.
[Observe the situation, intervene at the necessary moment to control the two people, and prevent this battle from affecting ordinary people.]
Boom! Boom! Boom...
"How the hell am I supposed to control this?"
Looking at Toichiro, who was using skyscrapers as weapons to fight ahead, and Tatsuma, who was cutting through buildings with a raise of his hand, Joseph pulled out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, a hint of sadness appearing in his eyes.
He was just an ordinary superpower user, unable to even defeat the Ultimate 5. With this level of strength, let alone controlling the situation, it was a question whether he could even get close to Tatsuma and Toichiro.
However...
"Why hasn't the isolation barrier shattered yet?" A look of confusion appeared on Joseph's face.
After a moment of thought, his figure flickered and disappeared from the spot, searching the surroundings.
Soon, he found Sho and other members of Claw on the two adjacent streets. They had all evacuated and fled from the headquarters after sensing that something was wrong.
Under the command of Sho and Ryo, all the superpower users present were continuously injecting energy into the barrier's core to maintain the isolation barrier.
"No, these people alone aren't enough."
After observing from the side for two seconds, the experienced Joseph made a judgment.
The isolation barrier set up with the magic tool as the core was weaker than ordinary isolation barriers.
An insufficient structure, coupled with a drop in the bucket of energy.
Relying solely on these, it was simply impossible to confine Tatsuma and Toichiro to this area.
"Who is it? Is there a third party intervening in this battle?" Joseph frowned tightly, pondering in his heart.
However, just then, a voice sounded behind him.
"Aren't you the third party force?"
?!
Joseph's pupils contracted, and he subconsciously tensed his body and turned to look.
The next second, a burly white male who looked about thirty years old appeared in his line of sight.
"Who are you?!"
"Magnus Rose, the person who came to assist you in dealing with this conflict."
Magnus Rose?
Joseph, who had a slight impression of this name, fell silent for a few seconds, then suddenly widened his eyes.
"Magnus, the holder of the Unknown Dictator?!"
"That's me." Magnus nodded slightly, acknowledging his identity.
"I didn't expect the government to send you." Joseph breathed a sigh of relief, his expression relaxing.
The Unknown Dictator is one of the new types of Sacred Gears that have appeared in recent years.
After testing by the United States government, the higher-ups believe that the power of this Sacred Gear is comparable to a Longinus. In other words, the Unknown Dictator and the Boosted Gear are Sacred Gears of the same rank.
"Sir, you came just in time. If you hadn't helped reinforce the isolation barrier and seal off this battlefield, I'm afraid the aftermath of these two fighting would have already blown half the city away."
"I didn't do it."
?
"The person who reinforced the isolation barrier and sealed off the battlefield wasn't me."
Magnus looked up at the red figure in the sky above, moving through the current of Telekinesis.
"That was all done by that Red Dragon Emperor."
Huh?
Joseph's mind went blank instantly.
After a full few seconds of silence, he finally spoke hesitantly.
"S-Sir... you mean... that Red Dragon Emperor was still splitting off a portion of his power to seal off the battlefield while fighting Toichiro?"
"That's right. If he hadn't been doing two things at once, this battle would have probably ended long ago."
A stream of light flashed in Magnus's eyes. In his sight, he could clearly see that the energy around Tatsuma was divided into two parts.
One part was being used in battle.
The other part was being transferred to the isolation barrier through the Boosted Gear to strengthen its intensity.
"It seems the Red Dragon Emperor's danger level needs to be re-evaluated."
At the same time, on the battlefield high in the sky.
Toichiro released his power output to 100%, and his physique further expanded.
The ground was torn apart, and countless huge rocks smashed towards Tatsuma from all directions.
At the same time, he covered his body with psychic energy for reinforcement, making every punch he threw possess overwhelming momentum, utterly terrifying.
Deafening roars continuously sounded, and the clouds in the sky were dispersed.
Since birth, this was the first time Toichiro had used his full strength to fight someone. Yet, even so, he was still unable to gain the upper hand in the battle, and was even gradually suppressed.
"What a joke!"
Looking at Tatsuma, who was walking leisurely through the torrent of psychic attacks, taking his attacks one by one and launching counterattacks, Toichiro finally couldn't remain calm, his eyes wide as he let out a roar of anger.
"You've split off so much energy to maintain the barrier, why do you still have this level of power?"
"So that's it, you still haven't noticed."
Tatsuma chuckled softly and dispelled the Senjutsu that had been covering his body.
In the next instant, a bottomless torrent of energy appeared before Toichiro.
Looking at the natural energy continuously surging from within Tatsuma, a hint of disbelief flashed in Toichiro's eyes.
"Could it be... you can also accumulate energy?"
"Of course, this has never been your sole privilege."
