Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

"Overlord Slash!"

The water angel could no longer stand idly by.

Its eyes widened instantly, and countless water wings formed an even larger ice sword in its hand, which it used to block Yan Ming's attack head-on.

boom--

"too slow."

By accelerating his own time, Yan Ming swung his sword at a speed surpassing that of Kanzaki and Mizuki.

The sword energy, infused with colorful power, not only shattered the water angel's ice sword in one strike, but also slammed it into the ground with a horizontal slash.

The first attack was successful and effective.

Under Yan Ming's absolute sword technique, known as the Overlord Slash, the angel's body instantly fell into the sea.

"Did it work?!"

As Kanzaki's voice rang out, the pointer in front of Yan Ming's eyes instantly began to spin.

A vision of the future appeared before my eyes.

"It's still a long way off."

Bang! A much larger figure reappeared on the water's surface.

Things have changed.

It was no longer the human appearance of Michael Chloejef... but a monstrous form.

Its entire body is composed of dark ice, and its eyes are pure white. It looks similar to a woman, but in reality, it is a completely genderless being.

Those were God's apostles.

"The power of God, Gabriel... has finally revealed his true colors!"

From this moment on, the angels have truly entered the battle.

It stared at the two enemies before it and unleashed countless hydrofoils in an overwhelming manner.

"Ugh..."

Kanzaki couldn't help but cover her hand. Seeing this, Yan Ming immediately waved his arm and wiped out the vast majority of the hydrofoils.

Despite this, the overwhelming hydrofoils still fell in fragments.

Their launch speed was so fast that after Yan Ming pulled them all out of the timeline, the phenomenon of dimensional chaos could no longer keep up with their speed.

Kanzaki gritted her teeth and quickly used her most prized technique—Yisou—to cut in multiple directions.

"Are you still able to fight?"

"I...I'm fine, sir. Please allow me to fight alongside you!"

Kanzaki was panting heavily, while Yan Ming didn't say anything more.

The enemy, known as the Angel, only truly unleashed its power at this moment.

But Yan Ming was in the same state.

Facing his enemy, who was an apostle of God, the Demon King raised his twin swords, facing the foe with nothing but absolute fighting spirit.

"You can't beat me. Bring it on, do what you can."

Volume 5 of A Certain Magical Index: Chapter 156 The Final Battle Between the Time Demon King and the Angels

The more she fought, the more Kanzaki felt her body was nearing its limit.

Kanzaki is a saint, possessing power far exceeding that of ordinary magicians. Her physical body can also draw upon a portion of the power of a divine child, allowing her to easily reach speeds exceeding the speed of sound and gain an incredibly strong physique.

However, this power cannot be used continuously for a long time.

Even though she is a saint, Kanzaki Kaori is still just a human being. She cannot sustain this power, which is equivalent to stepping into a realm beyond humanity, for an extended period of time.

In order to draw out the full power she possessed as a saint, she developed a deadly technique called "Only Flash".

Ultimately, the main purpose of the Flash is to unleash a finishing move, rather than a continuous series of attacks.

Since the start of the battle, Kanzaki has used the "Only Flash" move at least seven or eight times.

Her body gradually began to give way.

As if suffering from heatstroke, Kanzaki's entire body began to heat up, her face turned red, and she was constantly sweating. Even the wrists holding the Seven Days Seven Swords began to tremble.

The Only Flash is not a move meant to be used for a long time. If Kanzaki is unable to defeat the enemy with Only Flash in a short period of time, then her body will be overloaded.

In this state, she was almost at her breaking point.

however--

A point that Kanzaki found unbelievable was right in front of him.

"How is that possible..."

Standing on the beach, Kanzaki stared ahead with a shocked look.

On the sea, a young man named Shilun Yanming is fighting against an archangel who symbolizes the water element in legend.

He was just a human being, no different in essence from myself.

Yet he easily kept up with the speed and strength of an angel.

Under Kanzaki's watchful gaze, Yan Ming darted back and forth across the sea, brandishing his two swords and relentlessly launching close-quarters attacks on the angel.

Faced with the overwhelming array of water wings, he simply waved his hand, and they all vanished.

It was such a fantastical scene, it was as unrealistic as a fairy tale.

Kanzaki is a saint, a powerful being far beyond most ordinary people, yet—even a saint like her cannot maintain a domain for long, yet that young man so easily and casually stayed within it?

It's not just about staying in the same place; it's even about doing it better than yourself.

Kanzaki knew very well that she couldn't possibly fight an archangel to this extent on her own.

That was practically... a situation where both sides were evenly matched.

"Shilun Yanming... just who are you?"

Under the watchful gaze of the saint, Yan Ming remained on the sea, doing his utmost to deal with the angel before him.

Clang—!

Their swords clashed; the angel was wielding an ice sword over fifty meters long, while Yan Ming was using two swords: the Time Limit Sword and the Strongest Limit Sword.

The blades were crossed and fastened to the ice sword, and the purple energy materialized as a tangible force, continuously pressing down on the angel.

Each time the twin swords were pressed down, huge whirlpools would appear on the sea beneath the angels. This was a secondary phenomenon caused by the sea being unable to withstand such immense force.

In reality, relying solely on the output of Zi-O II is not enough to completely rival the Angel.

Although the strongest ultimate sword, when held tightly in Yan Ming's hand, would have an output power far exceeding the destructive force to split mountains, this power alone was not enough to counter the power of the angel at this moment.

Even a single water wing from an angel possesses the terrifying energy to destroy an entire city from its very tip; however, a horizontal slash that far surpasses the power to cleave mountains is not enough to match this output.

But what if—one's own power were to increase exponentially?

That's another bodily function from Zi-O's second form, a power overdraft enhancement.

By overloading the user's own body, the system's output function can continuously increase its strength by a relative percentage.

Now, every sword strike Yan Ming unleashes is about three or four times stronger than the power he possessed in his most basic form.

Zi-O II, already several times stronger than Zi-O to date, will gain even more terrifying power, several times stronger than before.

The angel glared at Yan Ming, and at the same time, countless blue lights shot out from the sky once again.

Those were the water wings of angels, falling one by one towards the earth and the sea at a speed faster than a missile.

Each of these hydrofoils alone possesses the terrifying power to destroy an entire city. There are already more than 50,000 of them in the sky. If they were all to fall to the ground, the destruction would probably not be as simple as just the Japanese islands.

Yan Ming, however, didn't even lift a hand.

While gripping his twin swords tightly to suppress the angel's movements, he used his unique spacetime manipulation abilities, unique to him as the second-generation Zi-O, to manipulate the entire sky.

The hydrofoils, falling like raindrops, suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Then, just like reversing a car, it reversed back into the sky at the same speed it had come from.

But it's not over yet.

As the hydrofoils retreated, they also exhibited a very strange behavior. Their tips gradually began to melt, turning into droplets of water that slowly flowed down to the sea surface below.

Yan Ming had already analyzed from the previous battle that the method of removing these water wings from the timeline was no longer effective. If the archangel got serious, their speed would exceed the speed at which things themselves began to collapse after being pulled out of the timeline.

These hydrofoils would crash directly to the ground before the collapse even begins, by which time it would be too late.

Therefore, Yan Ming chose a completely new method of attack.

By using the time reversal ability, the entire action of the hydrofoils "shooting towards the ground" can be reversed, so that they will all fly back into the sky.

Then, maintain this state, and infinitely accelerate the time of the hydrofoils themselves... until they are accelerated to the point in time when they completely dissipate.

Time reversal and time acceleration—both abilities can be applied to countless identical objects.

To be honest, being able to master even one of these abilities would already make one an absolute powerhouse, but to be able to master two different time-related abilities, and even to manipulate them with such exquisite skill...

The word "genius" is probably not enough to describe Yan Ming's combat talent.

Although Yan Ming could use abilities like time acceleration or time reversal to affect the angel in front of him, unfortunately, the angel would not change regardless of whether it traveled back tens of thousands of years or tens of thousands of years in the future.

However, Yan Ming was still able to suppress his opponent by relying on his own strength.

He once again used the Time Limit Sword to block the ice sword in front of him, while simultaneously using his thumb to flick the pointer of the strongest limit sword.

"Zi-O is the strongest!"

iridescent energy enveloped the tip of the ultimate sword.

The angel watching this scene was suddenly filled with extreme shock, its expression, which should have been devoid of any emotion.

"Overlord Slash!"

Everything happened in a fleeting instant.

The enormous, iridescent energy blasted the angel away in a slashing motion.

The enormous figure instantly created unparalleled waves on the sea.

The angel's body flew several kilometers away, while Yan Ming used the reaction force to fly back to the beach in one breath.

Wow... Absolutely amazing!

The scene before her eyes completely shocked Kanzaki Kaori.

This was the first time she had ever seen a human being so powerful as to knock an angel to the ground.

Even fairy tales don't go this far... Is reality really more exaggerated than fantasy worlds?!

Suddenly, Kanzaki felt an even stronger and more terrifying aura than before.

That aura was coming from the other side of the sea, which means—

"Watch out! That angel's power is even stronger than before!"

boom--!!!!

The archangel's attribute is water, so naturally, when it comes into contact with things related to this attribute, it becomes even stronger than before.

Yan Ming can amplify his own power several times over, and the Archangel can do the same.

Its wings plunged deep into the sea, and the global sea level seemed to drop slightly as a result.

"Did it absorb the ocean to increase its output...?"

Yan Ming calmly raised his two swords and merged them into one.

"Wait—you plan to fight that angel in your current state?!"

no respond.

Yan Ming simply overlapped the two swords together.

"Stop! That's too reckless!!"

"The ultimate Finish Time!"
