Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1451: Two Swords

Kyodushima Saeko said with a grin, her voice filled with murderous intent and greed.

Its pale lips opened slightly, revealing sharp teeth, as if it would pounce and tear Busujima Saeko to pieces at any time.

"I want to replace you and enjoy the bloody pleasure of killing, and Luther..."

It licked its lips, and even its tongue was pale, like a snake's tongue.

In the eyes of Kyodohima Saeko, Luther is not only the most important person in Saeko's life, but more like a prey emitting an alluring aroma. Its greedy eyes are full of covetousness for Luther.

In its perception, as long as it replaces Busujima Saeko, it can possess Luther and fully enjoy the satisfaction brought by conquest and possession.

Busujima Saeko's face changed and anger surged in her heart.

Luther is the most important person in her life, someone she cannot give up no matter what.

She exclaimed, "No way, those are all mine!"

Hollow Poison Island Saeko laughed wildly and said, "Do you think you can stop me? You are just a weak person bound by emotions, and I am the real strong one. As long as you are still hesitating and still bound by those so-called love and morality, you will never be my opponent."

Busujima Saeko understood what Hollow Busujima Saeko said, is it the theory of instinct?
A conversation between Kurosaki Ichigo and Kyohaku Ichigo.

What is the difference between a king and a mount? I am not asking you about childish guessing games like man and horse, two legs and four legs. Regardless of posture, ability and strength, they are two identical beings. I am asking you, what is the difference between the one who becomes the king and dominates the war, and the other party who becomes the mount to increase combat power? There is only one answer, instinct!

White Ichigo represents the id, advocating abandoning the constraints of reason and using instinct to drive power; Kurosaki Ichigo represents the ego, trying to control instinct to maintain humanity.

The essence of the line is the ultimate provocation from the id to the ego: "What you call power and control is nothing but self-deception."

The "king and the mount" metaphor also echoes Nietzsche's "will to power" theory - the essence of life is the desire to conquer and dominate.

White Ichigo denies the shackles of morality and claims that instinct is the source of transcendent power.

At this moment, Kyodokishima Saeko's words were similar to Kyodokashima Ichigo's remarks.

Like Kyohaku Ichigo, Kyohdokujima Saeko believes that emotions and morality are shackles that restrict her power.

In her opinion, as long as she abandons these so-called love and morals, she can become a truly strong person and can control everything as she pleases.

She seemed to have seen herself replacing Busujima Saeko and enjoying everything that Busujima Saeko had.

She realized that this was not just a question of power and dominance, but also a contest of human nature and instinct.

If she was completely driven by instinct like Saeko Kyodokishima, she would lose herself and her emotional connection with Luther, becoming a beast dominated by power.

But she didn't want to be that kind of person.

She wants to prove that even with great power, you can still hold on to your beliefs and your humanity.

She wants to use her actions to tell Kyodokishima Saeko that a truly strong person does not gain strength by abandoning emotions and morals, but is someone who can find a balance between strength and humanity.

"You're wrong." Busujima Saeko raised her head. "Power is not everything. Emotion and morality are the foundation of us as human beings. If we abandon these in pursuit of power, then what is the difference between us and beasts?"

When Kyodokushima Saeko heard what Busukushima Saeko said, she laughed even crazier.

"Huh, that's ridiculous. Do you think your emotions and morals can protect you? In this world where the strong prey on the weak, strength is the only truth." Before she finished speaking, Kyodushima Saeko swung the bone blade on her right arm violently.

The bone blade flashed with a chilling cold light, as if it was a weapon summoned from the abyss of hell. It slashed towards Busujima Saeko with an overwhelming force.

The bone blade cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, as if it was going to tear the space apart.

Busujima Saeko was prepared, and her eyes instantly became sharp, like cold stars twinkling in the night sky.

At this critical moment, she quickly dodged to the side, her body as agile as a ghost.

At the same time, she swung the demon sword in her hand violently, and the two swords, one big and one small, collided head-on in an extremely delicate trajectory.

There was a loud "clang" sound, as if a thunder exploded in the sky, sparks flew everywhere like blooming fireworks.

The powerful impact spread out in all directions like a surging tide. Busujima Saeko only felt a huge force coming along the blade, causing her to involuntarily take a few steps back.

Her arms trembled slightly, and she felt a sharp pain at the base of her palms, as if she had been hit hard by a heavy hammer.

She was secretly surprised in her heart. The power of this Kyodushima Saeko was beyond her imagination and more difficult to deal with than any opponent she had encountered before.

Kyodushima Saeko took the opportunity to launch a new round of attacks. The slender and narrow blade of her left arm stabbed out like a flash of lightning.

Her left arm also had no palm or forearm, only this two-meter-long blade, which flashed a cold light in the dim light.

The blade was moving at an extremely fast speed, carrying a fierce murderous aura, and it went straight to Busujima Saeko's throat.

Busujima Saeko quickly held the Youdaohime horizontally to block the attack from the virtual Busujima Saeko.

The blade collided with the blade, making another harsh sound, as if metal was rubbing against each other violently.

Busujima Saeko clenched her teeth, veins bulging on her forehead, and tried hard to steady herself.

She could feel Kyodokishima Saeko's power like a surging tide, rushing towards her wave after wave. Her body was under tremendous pressure, as if being pressed by a mountain.

But she had no intention of retreating, and she had only one thought in her mind: she must not fall down!

"Is this all you have?"

Busujima Saeko suppressed her physical discomfort, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and revealed a mocking smile, "I thought you were so powerful, but it turns out you are just like this. It seems that your so-called strong man is just a facade."

When Kyodokishima Saeko heard what Busukishima Saeko said, she became furious.

Her eyes turned red, as if burning with fire.

She increased the strength in her hands, and the bone blade and long knife seemed to be injected with infinite power, becoming even more ferocious.

She swung her sword frantically, each blow carrying the power to destroy the world, trying to completely defeat Busujima Saeko.

Busujima Saeko struggled to resist the attacks of Hollow Busujima Saeko, her body constantly dodging and moving amid the flashing swords and sabers.
