Chapter 538 Full Bloom

Rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble rumble!!!
As the deafening roar that ripped through the sky gradually faded away, the atmosphere became slightly eerie after Yuuki Yuna completely withstood the wrathful attack from the Thunder God.

The stardust and noise continued to fight each other in the sky, but the gods, who should have been enraged and launched a full-scale attack, seemed to have fallen silent and remained still, appearing extremely cautious and careful.

Now, Yuna Yuuki has completely figured out one thing—

The gods may not have spared humanity out of mercy because of the priestess's sacrifice or the protection of the sacred tree; they could have easily ignored all of that and directly unleashed destruction.

Therefore, the reason why humanity has been able to continue to eke out a living in the four kingdoms for another three hundred years is simply because of—a purely perverse sense of humor.

They just want to see the ugly struggles of humanity, the despair after falling into a dead end, and every time humanity finds new hope, they will tell them again with cruel facts that no matter how much mortals struggle, they are just playthings of the gods.

Humanity's desperate resistance, the burning lives of heroes, the sacrifices of young girls... in the eyes of "gods," they may just be wonderful performances that amuse them, serving as entertainment in their long lives, dramas they never tire of watching.

How could the ants possibly touch those high above them with their bare hands?
But... the mighty fist that can shatter heaven and earth can even defeat a "god"!
When Amaterasu descended in person, wielding the Yata no Kagami, a divine artifact symbolizing her divinity, intending to utterly destroy humanity, she was instead defeated head-on by the heroes of this generation, waking all the gods from their complacency.

No matter how arrogant.

Even God learns from failure.

At some point, the ants on the ground had evolved deadly fangs.

In order not to repeat the failure of their careless leader, no matter how furious they are, they will be extremely careful and pay utmost attention to these arrogant humans, gathering all their strength to defeat and kill the blasphemers.

Although there should be no existence in this universe that can be compared to them, Yuuki Yuna's performance just now forced God to remain silent.

That domineering and fierce, seemingly indestructible heavy blow was actually blocked, a power that even they found astonishing.

Where does such power come from?

After careful consideration, only one conclusion can be drawn—indeed, we must do everything in our power to kill these fish that slipped through the net.

The mythical being silently emerged from the void behind the army of "stardust".

As the light coalesced, one 'god' after another descended from the distant Takamagahara, observing and watching with a cold and indifferent gaze yet another group of humans who dared to defy them.

Enormous sword-shaped totems, spear-shaped patterns, and jade-shaped designs, exuding an ancient and sacred aura, filled the entire world. Compared to that day, an even more terrifying aura coalesced, still possessing a despair-inducing intensity.

then……

"So this was the omen of death..."

As those "gods" who could rival the blazing sun and arbitrarily alter the universe and create life with their will gradually appeared, wielding divine artifacts, a scarlet light flashed before the girl's eyes once more.

"...Sister Xiang, do you see that red star next to the Big Dipper?"

It has many names, such as "Ominous Star," "Death Omen," "Accompanying Star of Kaiyang," and "Flag of Death," but none of them can change the ominous nature of this star.

Last time, she didn't quite understand what it meant, but this time she knew everything, and a heavy, deathly shadow appeared on the girl's face.

“…I see.”

However, the girl, who was armed with fragments of the "God-Slaying Spear," simply said this in a relaxed tone.

"But I don't care! If it's a star, I'll smash it; if it's a flag, I'll break it! At most, it's just a stepping stone I have to step on! Only my own fists can decide everything and determine the future!"

That was an attitude of not taking this thing seriously at all, and completely abandoning fate.

“…That’s true.”

Yuuki Yuna snapped out of her daze, her anger and hatred churning like magma within her. She would not back down because of the appearance of the Death Star.

Unlike Hibiki Tachibana, her only feeling towards this star was rage.

An uncontrollable rage!
"Even if there's not a 99% chance of winning... even if there's only a 1% chance... I will fight. This is my destiny as a hero. Even if I die, I will never admit defeat!! I must kill them!!"

Her expression was twisted and ferocious. This ominous star in front of her was truly an obstacle, and a powerful force was surging forth from her heart due to the anger in her heart. She felt as if a supernova was about to erupt inside her body!
"...So much has happened...To be honest, my brain can't keep up, but Yuna-chan, we're here to defeat the gods, so don't utter the word 'death' so easily..."

Seemingly sensing something, Hibiki Tachibana, as the senior, patted Yuna's head with concern.

The warmth and cheerfulness she used to have are completely gone from her now…

Although this was inevitable, if it were Hibiki Tachibana from the past, having experienced so much before, and had encountered the same fate as Yuna Yuuki, perhaps her heart would have been consumed by "anger" and "sadness"...

Although she wanted to offer advice, her words couldn't fully reach the girl's wavering heart; all she could do was—

"...Yona!"

Navigating an enormous ship laden with all sorts of firearms, Togo Mimori gently approached her and tenderly took her incredibly warm right hand in his.

She continued to gaze intently at Yuuki Yuna, feeling that terrifying, burning "death will" emanating from her friend—a will to fight at all costs, even at the cost of mutual destruction.

“Yuna, you… have always been putting on a brave face, always forcing yourself, but no matter how hard you try, you can’t bear everything alone.”

"It's alright, Togo-san, I didn't force myself!"

The girl said this with a smile, but her voice trembled slightly.

Ignoring the heat, Togo Mimori gripped Yuna's hand even tighter, gazing into Yuna's eyes, and whispered:

"...No matter how much you try to be strong, I can see through it."

"Haha... I didn't..."

Yuna Yuuki's gaze began to waver slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Nogi Sonoko came to her side and spoke in a gentle tone.

“Friend…you have always been fighting, you have endured more pain than anyone else, but you are less likely to say discouraging words or give up than anyone else, we all know that.”

"Huh... such discouraging words...?"

Miyu Karin reached out from behind and put her hand on Yuna's shoulder, gripping her tightly until her knuckles turned white from the force. "That's right... we all know you've been pushing yourself too hard."

“…Dried fish, even you…”

Inubozaki Itsuki, carrying a giant sword to project the aura of Raoh, the boxing champion, shouted at Yuna in dissatisfaction:
"This isn't just your battle! We're all in the same boat! All the feminine strength I've honed up until now has been for this day!"

Inubobo looked at Yuuki Yuna with an indescribable sadness, gazing at the girl who was the first to lead them to stand up and take action.

“Yuna-neechan… even though you’ve become stronger than all of us, and gentler than anyone else… you can still rely on us, so please don’t say things like ‘even if it means death’!”

As her partners, they could certainly tell that her appearance was completely different from the usual Yuuki Yuna.

The forced smile seemed incredibly empty, the "anger" in his eyes was terrifying, all his expressions were filled with gritted teeth and "hatred," and there was that "sad" back view.

Although there is a saying that "anger" is the essence of boxing, such "anger" is definitely not the essence of boxing; it is merely the burning flame of life.

Yuna Yuuki gently closed her eyes and exhaled a long breath.

—At that moment, she realized for the first time how terrifying her expression looked.

Yes, no matter how strong she is, no matter how close her body is to a god, she is still human after all, with a fragile human heart.

The shadow and gloom cast by the power of the gods on that day have not yet dissipated to this day.

Not only her, but every girl present who had participated in that day's battle carried this shadow in her heart.

However, the shadow in Yuuki Yuna's heart was exceptionally large... large enough that she would risk her life and follow the world into destruction.

Who says that achieving a "miracle" comes without a price?
This may be the price they paid before they even gained power.

Nogi Sonoko nodded: "That's right. No matter how strong you are, no matter how tough you seem... we want to support you. Please rely on us until you fall!"

"That's right, this won't do! What if Yuna breaks...?! If you break, I'll never forgive you!"

Togo Mimori spoke in a distinctive tone that bordered on threatening.

The warmth of her friend's hand, the warmth of everyone's bodies, gradually eased her tense nerves.

Perhaps, we can rely on this warmth now...

Such an idea suddenly flashed through her mind.

Yuna's expression began to crumble without her realizing it.

Her bluff and ease just now, as Togo Mimori and Nogi Sonoko saw through, were her performance at her limit.

Yuuki Yuna, who had given up trying to be brave, began to change her expression.

Nogi Sonoko: "Tomo, it's important to be strong, but it's not something you can do alone! Please... even just a little bit, please cherish yourself."

Having been active since the previous generation's hero, she has faced the same predicament and understands more than anyone else: "Strength is not something one person has to bear alone. True strength is being able to rely on your companions. You can definitely rely on us."

"..."

Inubozaki Itsuki: "Yes, rely on us... sometimes... rely on us too."

Miyoshi Natsumi: "This time, please let us support you. I swear, I will be your sword, your fist."

Tree of the Great Barrier: "You're strong... but we will absolutely not lose to you!"

Togo Mimori smiled quietly and gripped her hand even tighter.

Yuna was speechless.

Every time I try to say something, my throat gets choked up.

She desperately held back the tears that were about to spill. No, now was not the time to cry! She, Yuuki Yuna, was the last hero! Even if she had to cry, it would only be tears of joy!
The pink-haired girl smiled at her friends, patted her cheeks, and her expression, which was on the verge of tears, returned to its usual gentleness and vitality.

"I'm cheering now! Thank you everyone!"

So what if you see the Death Star?
Whether it's the Death Star or the Banner, she fought to avoid an unwanted future and returned to avert a tragedy that shouldn't have happened, so that she wouldn't become part of that tragedy herself!
Despite the formidable enemy at hand, with the god who had destroyed everything they once possessed hovering above them, everyone laughed together.

"...But I really want to shout it out."

Yuna looked at Tachibana Hibiki not far away again.

Now, she has no more confusion in her heart.

"Isn't there any need to endure this?"

Hibiki smiled as she looked at her and the other girls in the Hero Club. Although Yuna had not yet understood or comprehended the meaning because she had only been a disciple of Hokuto for a short time, it didn't matter now.

That thing is—

The essence of Fist of the North Star is "love." A fist filled with hatred cannot defeat any enemy!

Yuuki Yuna took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, raised her clenched fist, and assumed a fighting stance. The most powerful energy she had ever generated overflowed around her, and the space itself became unstable due to her astonishing aura.

One after another, enormous pink cherry blossoms appeared behind her. The illusory flowers overlapped like magic circles, blooming magnificently. The powerful energy transformed into visible ripples, sweeping outwards like raging waves.

— "Full bloom," "Full bloom," "Full bloom again!"
With a stark contrast of extreme violence, two enormous mechanical fists appeared behind Yuna—that was…

It belongs to Yuna Yuuki, a giant fist capable of grasping the heavens!
The girls of the Hero Club exchanged glances, as if by telepathy, all understanding what Yuuki Yuna wanted to shout out: they were comrades, the Hero Club that would always be together!

Bloom in full glory! Bloom in full glory! Bloom in full glory!
Beams of light shot straight into the sky, shattering countless "stardust." Behind each person, flowers of various colors appeared, each filled with a powerful will, a strong belief, "courage," and... "love"!
Before we reach the end of our lives, before we reach the end of the heavens, let the flowers of courage bloom in full glory!

A sudden gust of wind howled through this deserted hell, and Yuuki Yuna's figure vanished in an instant, while the other heroes also soared into the sky as if traversing space.

The sea of ​​fire surged, and the cries of the heroes' souls echoed throughout the universe.

"Bring it on!!!" x5
