"Hahaha, as expected of the Red Dragon Emperor of the Two Heavenly Dragons."
Tannin laughed as he looked in Issei's direction, then turned to Shiro, "So, Saji boy, what kind of surprise can you bring this old man?"
Shiro didn't respond.
Regarding 'Dragon King Transformation', Azazel-sensei had told him that if he couldn't control it, he would go berserk.
He absolutely shouldn't try it before he had a grasp of it, and if he wanted to become a Dragon King, he needed to weigh the consequences, but now, he wanted to try.
"Hoo~"
"Tannin-sensei, are you ready?!"
"I'm starting!!"
Shiro spread his hands, his eyes serious; even if it was just training, he had to go all out like Issei!
"Hahaha, boy, come on, let this old man see your growth!!" Tannin laughed loudly.
Shiro took a deep breath, then slowly spoke.
"I am the Dragon King of Black Evil— "
"Cursed by my body, baptized by black flames— "
"Cursing all, incinerating all— "
"With my Cursed Black Flames, burn the entire world— "
"Dragonification!!!!"
As Shiro slowly chanted.
His whole body was engulfed in towering black flames, turning into a sphere of black flames.
At Azazel and Abel's location.
"Wow~ How impressive, truly my student."
"Juggernaut Drive, and Dragonification, today is truly interesting."
Azazel clapped his thigh, laughing as he spoke.
Falack's snake-like eyes watched the two pillars of light, deep in thought.
Behemoth, on the other hand, looked eager to try.
Everyone else watched the two's battle with a spectator's mentality.
When the black light dissipated, a black dragon radiating terrifying cursed power appeared before everyone's eyes.
Feeling the power within his body, Shiro felt incredibly exhilarated.
At the same time, deep within the Sacred Gear.
A black dragon, whose soul was slowly merging, opened its eyes.
This was Fafnir, the Black Evil Dragon, residing deep within the Sacred Gear; at this moment, it and its shattered soul were fully revived.
Shiro let out an excited roar, swung his black dragon body, and charged towards Tannin.
"Hahaha, well met!"
Tannin laughed loudly, then spread his wings and met him.
Then he punched Shiro, and as a former Sixth Dragon King, his light screen power was at the Devil King level.
Shiro was sent flying by this punch, crashing into a distant mountain, causing the entire mountain to shake and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Shiro coughed up a mouthful of blood.
So... so strong!
Is this Tannin-sensei's power? He couldn't even withstand a single blow.
Just like that, Shiro elegantly fainted.
At this moment, Shiro was dragged into a space.
"Are you my clone?"
Shiro's whole body stiffened, and he slowly turned his head, only to see a giant black dragon... no, to be precise, it should be a giant snake.
Its four eyes stared intently at him.
"Fa... Fafnir!?"
"Oh? Someone still recognizes this old man?"
Before Shiro could answer, Fafnir's gaze seemed to be able to see outside.
He looked at Tannin, who had a giant yellow horn and explosive muscles.
"It's Tannin, you're quite brave, daring to hit Tannin, one of the Dragon Kings."
"Huh?"
Before Shiro could react, he lost control of his body.
"Oh, my clone~ Let this Dragon King control your body and show you what Cursed Flames are!"
Tannin looked at Shiro, who had crashed into the mountain cave.
"Was it... too much force?" Tannin whispered.
Just as he was about to go over, those dim eyes lit up again.
"Roar~! Oh! Oh! Oh!"
Fafnir soared into the sky.
He circled in the air, looking down at Tannin.
"Long time no see, Tannin!"
"You're Fafnir!? What did you do to Saji boy?!"
"Nothing, just let him sleep for a bit."
Fafnir said, stretching his body, "The outside world is really nice, Tannin, come on, let's have a good fight!!"
Saying that, a ball of black flames directly attacked Tannin.
"Fafnir's soul returned from deep within the Sacred Gear?"
"It... it won't go berserk, right?"
Azazel said, his brows slightly furrowed.
Unlike Azazel's focus, Abel was different.
He looked at Issei in Juggernaut Drive and had a slightly bad feeling, always feeling like he had forgotten something.
Suddenly, Abel thought of something.
Raynare!
That woman who deceived Issei's feelings.
Even if he now liked men, this relationship was always a thorn.
Since that's the case, it's still necessary to be prepared.
Abel looked at Kiba Yuto and Gaspar, who had mostly recovered.
"Kiba, Gaspar, come with me."
"Mm."
"Hai! Senpai!"
Kiba and Gaspar didn't ask anything, obeying Abel's arrangements.
Then Abel looked at Azazel again, "Old man, I'm going down for a bit, set up a barrier later."
Azazel waved his hand, "Got it, got it, hurry up and come back."
Abel quickly left with Kiba Yuto and Gaspar.
On the other side, Issei, in Juggernaut Drive, was somewhat intoxicated by the continuous power flowing within his body.
This... is this power?
Issei slowly exhaled a turbid breath, his dragon eyes fixed on Elsha.
Elsha looked at Issei and did not make a move.
The first Juggernaut Drive naturally needed some time to adapt to the power.
After a while, the dragon head looked at Elsha.
"Elsha-nee-san, witness the Juggernaut Drive's..."
"Issei~"
Before he could finish speaking, Issei, in Juggernaut Drive, stiffened all over.
This familiar voice.
This voice that made his abdomen ache.
This voice that toyed with his love.
This voice he thought he had forgotten.
"Amano... Yuuma..."
Issei, who was originally preparing to attack, suddenly stopped, and all the jewels on his body dimmed.
Elsha frowned, this feeling, it was as if he had lost his will to fight.
"Hey, Elsha."
"Ddraig!?"
Elsha looked at her gauntlet and was stunned for a moment, "How did you get here?"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect to actually be able to transfer here."
Ddraig, who had moved into Elsha's gauntlet, laughed loudly, then said with a serious expression, "I don't know what's going on with Issei right now, his heart is closed off, that kid is going to have a problem."
"What!?"
"Elsha, you should know that for Juggernaut Drive, one must have a flawless mindset of pursuing power.
Overbearing to the point of no hesitation, but if there is even a hint of slack, then the fears deep within one's heart will be infinitely magnified.
So that kid definitely has a problem in his heart, and it's very serious.
We must quickly pull that kid out of his inner world, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!!"
...
(Eh heh~ That's how it is.)
(Just bear with it, I've been busy with completion acceptance and completion acceptance drawings these days.)
