Infinite Anime Strategy Guide

All eyes were focused on the fire wave that Shana had unleashed. Although it seemed unbelievable, it did not appear to have much power on the surface. Only Lin Yu could vaguely sense the power contained within it.

That was a force that even he had to be on high alert for!

call out!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, each with their own thoughts, Yan Bo finally landed precisely on the 'Heavenly Ladder'...

boom!!!

An unimaginable burst of flames erupted the moment the two touched, a true fire wave that almost covered most of the sky. Even those thousands of meters away, like Rentaro Satomi, could feel the intense heat.

The firelight illuminated everyone's astonished faces. Satomi Rentaro's face was full of disbelief, Natsume's face was full of shock, and Kohina's face was full of fear, like a frightened little animal curling up in Lin Yu's arms.

Seeing humanity's ultimate weapon perish in the sea of ​​fire, the Heavenly Ladder was reduced to ashes by the scorching Crimson Lotus Flame. Shana's Crimson Lotus Flame symbolized judgment and sentencing, and was far beyond the reach of ordinary flames. Even a being like Shudenan would be wary of it, let alone a weapon built by humans.

"How could this happen? How could this be!"

Rentaro Satomi roared at Shana in mid-air.

"Don't you understand?"

Lin Yu had a happy smile on his face.

"You can still laugh! This is the only hope of killing Stage V!"

Blinded by anger, Rentaro Satomi had clearly forgotten something.

"The only hope? Ha, you really don't take me and Shana seriously at all!"

As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, Rentaro Satomi calmed down, but his fists were still clenched tightly, and his eyes were fixed on Lin Yu as if he wanted to devour him.

"If I could, I'd really like to punch you!"

Rentaro Satomi looked very serious. Clearly, he would have done this if he hadn't considered the enormous gap in their strengths!

"Oh? Then I'll have to look forward to it."

Lin Yu didn't take it seriously at all. No matter how much Rentaro Satomi trained in this world, he would never be able to reach his current level. This had nothing to do with talent. In a world without any mystery, a person's strength was very limited. Defeating Lin Yu would not be so easy.

"Give me the phone. Kogi and the others probably have something to say to me."

Lin Yu stretched out his hand, as if he had expected this all along.

"whispering sound!"

Although he was unhappy, Rentaro Satomi understood that things were now extremely urgent. The destructive power of Stage V was terrifying, even without witnessing it firsthand.

"Brother! What exactly do you want to do?!"

The moment the phone was brought to his ear, he heard Mugeng's roar, thinking to himself that her temper was much hotter than before.

Lin Yu hadn't expected him to ask Xia Na to do that; even someone with the temperament of the Holy Emperor would probably be furious by now.

"It's just a small thing, why are you getting so worked up?"

Lin Yu maintained a relaxed tone, even with a hint of teasing.

"What do you mean by 'a trivial matter'!"

Kisara immediately went berserk.

"Brother, don't you know? That's Stage V! Last time you fought Stage V, you disappeared for ten years. Do you want to disappear for another ten years this time?!"

Mugeng's mouth was like a machine gun, once he started talking, it seemed endless. Lin Yu wasn't annoyed at all; in fact, he seemed quite pleased.

"Oh my, that naughty little girl from back then has learned to care about others now."

Lin Yu made this remark with considerable emotion, appearing quite relaxed, but the conference room was in an uproar. Apart from the Holy Emperor and Kikunojo Tendou, who remained silent, the other high-ranking officials were extremely anxious.

"Can I have the phone?"

The Holy Emperor spoke to Mokusei in an inquiring tone.

Kisara paused for a moment, staring at the other person's pale face, which was almost expressionless, before finally handing the phone to the Holy Emperor.

"Uncle, it's me."

The Emperor's gentle voice came through the phone, and Lin Yu's lips curled into a pleased smile. The plan was officially underway!

"Saint-chan, I'm so sorry, Uncle has been too busy lately. I can only bring your Shana-nee to see you again in a while."

Silence fell on the other end of the phone.

"Uncle, what exactly do you want to do?"

The Emperor's uniquely soft voice finally came after a long while. Lin Yu shrugged rather uninterestedly; he still wanted to tease his former little niece.

"Well, the requirements are simple. Just broadcast the battle here live to the entire Tokyo area like you did ten years ago. We'll take care of Scorpio!"

Lin Yu's request surprised the Holy Emperor, who became even more confused about Lin Yu's plan.

"That's all?"

To confirm, the Holy Emperor subconsciously asked a question, but then regretted it. What if there were other requests?

That's all!

What she feared did not happen; Lin Yu gave a positive answer.

The Holy Emperor turned her gaze to Kikunojo Tendo. Although she was nominally the supreme ruler of the Tokyo area, the real power lay with Kikunojo Tendo, her assistant. Without his consent, even the Holy Emperor could not make a decision.

"Are there any other options?"

Kikunojo Tendo looked at the figure on the screen in front of him, who was exactly the same as he had been ten years ago, and asked in return.

The Holy Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. She knew very well that if Lin Yu's request was not granted, he would absolutely not take action, even if it meant letting the entire Tokyo area be destroyed!

It was precisely because he understood this that Kikunojo Tendo agreed so readily; otherwise, even if he didn't know Lin Yu's plan, he would never have agreed.

"That's right, I'm sure you wouldn't dare to lie to me."

Lin Yu smiled happily and turned his gaze to Shana, who was waiting for his next instructions in the sky.

"You must all be very curious about just how strong Shana is, right?"

When Lin Yu said this, everyone who heard it subconsciously turned their gaze to the small figure in mid-air who had easily destroyed humanity's ultimate weapon.

"It's quite a coincidence. Even I'm curious, so..."

"Shana, why don't you show us your true strength?"

Shana glanced at Lin Yu in mid-air and revealed a stunning smile. The next second, her petite body was surrounded by surging red lotus flames!

[Exclusive body pillows are about to be released, so get your sunglasses ready!]

142. Crimson Lotus Greatsword!

"what!"

The sudden burst of flames on Shana's body took everyone by surprise. Although they had seen flames on the greatsword Shana held before, and even seen Shana with a pair of fiery wings on her back, they never expected that Shana would be completely engulfed by flames this time.

Indeed, in the eyes of Rentaro Satomi and Enju, Shana seemed to be in danger at this moment. Only Natsume looked thoughtfully at Shana, who was enveloped in flames in mid-air, after seeing that Lin Yu's expression remained unchanged.

"I was originally planning to give you a surprise at a crucial moment, Xiaoyu."

Shana's calm voice came from within the flames, and Lin Yu's smile widened even more.

"But since you want to see a truly massive battle, I'll show it to you ahead of time!"

Leaving behind these words, Shana, her figure enveloped in flames, flew towards the sea, where the massive body of Scorpio could be faintly seen ahead.

At this moment, after a decade, all the screens in the Tokyo area have once again changed to a unified image. Compared to the Tokyo area that suffered a major disaster ten years ago, the Tokyo area is more prosperous today. It can be said that the streets and alleys are full of screens used to play advertisements. But now, all the advertisements have disappeared, and only a satellite image remains.

Even if Kikunojo Tendo was unwilling, he wouldn't dare to make any underhanded moves on what he had already agreed to. He knew Lin Yu's temper; if he really went back on his word, Lin Yu would definitely dare to destroy the giant stone monument that provided protection for the Tokyo area with his own hands!

People who were busy stopped in their tracks when they saw this change. Although Kikunojo Tendo was not kind enough to provide an explanation, the scene on the screen spoke volumes. The familiar giant stone monument and the overhead view said it all – the scene showed Tokyo!

"What is that, a monster?!"

"How could it appear next to the Tokyo area? Aren't Gastrea supposed to be afraid of the magnetic field of the megalith?!"

"No, that's not right! There's another type of Gastrea that's immune to magnetic fields!"

"What! You mean Stage V, where we were defeated by the hero ten years ago?!"

Because of the upheaval ten years ago, almost all residents over the age of sixteen clearly remember what Stage V Gastrea meant—a monster that finally died from its self-destruction after the lives of two heroes were sacrificed!

The entire city of Tokyo was in an uproar. Due to Kikunojo Tendo's information control, apart from the top police officers, no ordinary residents knew that the two heroes who had perished with Taurus had returned. The battle ten years ago was still vivid in their minds, and they could hardly imagine who could stop such a monster now that the two heroes had been lost.

"What exactly is his purpose?"

Kikunojo Tendo stared intently at the screen. He had a very bad feeling. With the Heavenly Ladder destroyed, he was completely helpless. The only way was to meet Lin Yu's demands. Otherwise, the entire Tokyo would be destroyed by Scorpio!

"If it's an attempt to manipulate public opinion."

His eyes, which had begun to become cloudy, gleamed with a sharp light. Although Kikunojo Tendo had grown old, his mind was not rigid. He vaguely understood Lin Yu's thoughts and was just waiting for the battle of wits and courage to begin after the fight was over.

Kikunojo Tendo never imagined that he would have to face this young man who had surprised him ten years ago.

"If it were him now, he might kill me."

A faint, enigmatic smile appeared on Kikunojo Tendo's lips, but it vanished in an instant...

scoff!

As Shana gradually disappeared into the distance, everyone noticed that her figure did not seem to shrink at all.

"No! It's not that it didn't shrink!"

Rentaro Satomi's mechanical eye was still on, and after his vision was enhanced, he was horrified to discover a fact.

"She's constantly getting bigger!"

Upon hearing Rentaro Satomi's exclamation, the little girls, who possessed strength far exceeding that of ordinary people, took a closer look and confirmed that, just as Rentaro Satomi had said, Shana's figure was indeed growing larger and larger!

"It's not so much that Shana is getting bigger, but rather that the flames on her body are getting bigger."

Whoosh, whoosh!

With each flap of Shana's crimson wings, they grew larger, looking just like the final fire giant of the Seven Sins. The flames that had been large began to solidify, and a hundred-meter-tall fire giant with wings appeared on the sea!

Lin Yu chuckled. He finally understood what Shana meant by "surprise." Shana's current appearance was practically an enhanced version of the Flame Hand!

In the original story, Shana learned the Free Magic 'Flame Hand' from Margery Dale. However, it seems that Shana has improved upon the Flame Hand, perhaps it could be called—Flame Garment?!

The Hand of Flame can transform Shana's Crimson Flame into an extension of her arm, making it a highly practical and powerful technique that greatly enhances combat strength. Shana, in particular, has constructed the extension with flames all over her body, placing herself near the heart of the Flame Giant.
