Boom——! !

Even with his strongest effort and maximum output to date, Kakine Teitoku was still unable to advance any further.

He was completely suppressed.

The power composed of immense primordial matter, even a tiny fraction of which would be enough to destroy any other world, is utterly insignificant in the face of this opponent.

He unleashed all his power from his entire body.

Even so, there was still no way to completely extinguish the light of destruction before them.

"hateful!"

The second one shouted angrily, having even exceeded the limits of his own power and transcended the concept of infinity.

Even so, it still couldn't stop the opponent's attack.

It's like two identical poles repelling each other, but if you use overwhelming force to forcibly hold them together, they simply can't resist each other in the slightest.

Kakine Teitoku, that's the situation he's in now.

However, this situation bought some time for Accelerator behind them.

The first one stood up again.

He flapped his enormous pure gray wings behind him, unleashing the same power as chaos forward.

boom! ! !

Gray and pure white, two distinctly different lights, twisted together to form a spiral beam of light.

The beam of light canceled out the rays emitted from the giant's eyes, thus triggering a massive explosion.

The aftershocks of the explosion mercilessly blasted Kakine Teitoku's body onto the floor beneath him.

"Hello…!"

Accelerator grabbed his body and quickly began to examine his anatomy.

Fortunately, the second person who possesses the Unknown Matter does not need to worry about damage to their physical body. Even if their main body is destroyed, they can simply use the Unknown Matter to create a new body.

But the results observed by Accelerator shocked him.

That attack just now, through Kakine Teitoku's Unreal Matter Network, destroyed all the other clones in the other worlds that were equivalent to him in one fell swoop.

How could this be? Even Accelerator expressed disbelief. He knew very well the second-ranked psychic in Academy City.

Although the network of undifferentiated matter appears to be interconnected, it is not actually completely connected.

Destroying the main body doesn't actually affect the other clones. Therefore, killing one clone or the main body would cause damage to the remaining clones, which is something no one should be able to do.

…But the giant before them completely ignored this point.

Not only that, that was just a routine attack from the opponent. Now it continues to focus its attention on the first and second ranked individuals, intending to devour them all.

"asshole…"

Accelerator was filled with anger.

But he was helpless in the face of this.

What should he do? He couldn't help but look at the pair of pure gray wings behind him.

Even as the strongest ace in the battle, he couldn't make much of an impact. The situation just now proved that even using these gray wings could only barely negate one of the opponent's attacks, let alone reverse the battle in the current situation.

Could it be that everything is about to end here?

…wrong.

"It shouldn't be that simple."

Accelerator suppressed all his complex emotions and did his best to calm himself down and think things through in this race against time.

That giant... as an extraordinary being existing outside of countless worldviews, must possess considerable power, yet it insists on being fixated on Accelerator alone, which must have some strange reason behind it.

In other words.

There must be some way within myself to defeat that guy!

Didn't it just say that?

Accelerator continued to recall what the enemy had said to him earlier.

"Come on, all your superfluous tactics are useless. Unleash the true essence of your abilities, manipulate the 'direction' of all energy, and defeat me with my own power."

That guy... was deliberately guiding me, using his superpowers to control the direction of the other person's energy, in order to harm them.

Extra measures are useless.

This means that apart from Accelerator's superpowers, no other force can effectively harm this guy.

He can only harm the enemy by using the enemy's own energy.

but--

Recalling the way that guy spoke at the time, Accelerator had reason to believe that the other party had this idea from the beginning—to let him manipulate the opponent's moves by controlling the direction of energy, and to defeat the opponent with the opponent's energy.

There must be some kind of trickery involved. If I actually do as they say, I'll definitely fall into their trap.

but--

Besides this, do I have any other choice?

Rumbling sounds echoed from the giant's body, accompanied by incredibly violent impacts.

Facing the rapidly descending platform, it raised its hand without hesitation, clenching its five fingers into a fist.

It slammed towards him with an intensity that surpassed all notions of speed.

In this way, the other party has absolutely no means of resistance.

…click.

Click click click click click click—

Just as the giant's massive punch was about to shatter the entire platform.

Its enormous, overwhelmingly powerful fist—

Slowly, it curves upward.

No.

To be precise, it should be said that it was bounced away.

Boom——! !

reflection.

The absolute protective membrane, capable of deflecting all external impacts, once again proved effective throughout the entire body.

The giant's fist was deflected, and Accelerator slowly stood up from the platform.

"..."

The giant seemed silent for a few seconds, and in that instant—

Accelerator directly manipulated the vector beneath his feet, shooting straight towards the enemy.

boom! !

He crashed into the giant in an instant, producing a tremendous sound.

Of course, all of this should be an ineffective technique.

However, this had a rather significant impact on the giants.

Its enormous body swayed slightly from the impact of Accelerator's attack. It tried to grab the first thing on its body, but Accelerator ignored it.

He raised his hand and grabbed the giant's chest.

In a blink of an eye.

It completely manipulates the direction of some immense energy.

Click——! !

In front of the giant, the first person to tear open the giant's thick chest with his own strength.

The roar echoed throughout time and space.

The giant roared, seemingly trying to crush the tiny insects on its body, but the first one manipulated the energy and pulled the giant's arm in the opposite direction.

It once again cast its gaze toward One Way Pass.

As before, the pair of eyes, one blue and one red, with a gaze power surpassing even the Evil Eye, attacked Accelerator head-on.

boom----

but.

Although Accelerator was engulfed by the blue and red light, he managed to stand up.

"...I've figured it out!"

However, the number one spot in Academy City will not fall easily because of this.

His legs were trembling, but he used all his strength to stand up straight.

And concentrate all your energy on manipulating the direction of the opponent's energy!

boom--! !

The brilliance formed by red and blue was deflected by an invisible protective shield.

The enormous beam of light pierced the giant's thick chest without mercy, tearing apart part of its arm in the process.

"what…"

Accelerator immediately returned to the platform.

The surrounding flames burned even more intensely, and the platform descended at an increasingly faster pace.

He then smiled.

"Haha! That's more like it, this is the main event!!"

So that's what the other party was afraid of.

The essence of one's ability is to control the direction of energy. If this effect is used well, one can easily control the energy of the other party.

I shouldn't have relied on any extra power in the first place.

Doomsday Destroyer, Nathius, Apollo, or even black, white, or gray wings—there's absolutely no need for any of that.

All I need to do is use my most basic abilities to deal with this guy.

I don't need any help from others at all.

"I can win!" A tremendous sense of confidence welled up in Accelerator's heart. He believed that he no longer needed the so-called limitations of computing power, so there was no need to consider the upper limit of energy manipulation.

There's no need to manipulate other energy directions; the only energy that needs to be manipulated is the giant's own energy.

That's right, only by utilizing the enemy's own energy can the enemy itself be destroyed.

Everything else is unnecessary!

"That's good... The battle was really easy."

Accelerator's eyes were bloodshot, and he smiled with a fierce fighting spirit.

He looked at the giant in front of him, who was struggling to hold on due to the series of attacks.

Next, all you need to do is use your abilities to further manipulate the direction of the opponent's energy to defeat them.

This method works! No, this is what I should be doing! Until now, relying on any kind of wings or the power of other people's weapons has only led me astray!

Unbeknownst to him, the pure gray wings on his back had completely vanished.

All of this stems from Accelerator's own will.

He stretched out his hand as if in a trance.

The giant is on its last legs. If it launches a few more attacks using its own energy, it will be destroyed forever.

And everything.

And so, all of this will come to an end—
