64 Finally I found you!

Gabriel, back in his human form, was running across another hall after leaving the others behind him in an half-dead state, before he backed away and the wall at his side was destroyed, revealing a floating armor.

?: I am the 6th Lea-Ugh!

before he could finish his introduction, Gabriel immediately slammed him on the floor with his tail before he stomped his head, crushing his empty helm, after that, he sprinted once again to the center of the floating island.

[Meanwhile]

An unsealed Moka was at the center of a giant circular room, there was a platform at the center of it, while on the edges there was only a dark and ominous hole, at the center, there was a magic circle, and Moka stood there, she was gritting her teeth, as if she was trying to resist something.

Under the platform, there was a giant mass of flesh that was constantly releasing Youki like crazy, and it was pulsating after every 2 seconds.

*Step*

Moka moved her head towards the source of the sound, that came from the main door…

*Step* *Step* *Step*

Suddenly, those footsteps stopped in front of the closed door, before the door was flung away towards Moka, she instinctively closed her eyes, but something blocked the door, which was revealed to be a barrier.

Gabriel: Surprise motherfucker!

Moka: Gabrie-UWAAAAAAAHHHH!!!

Something that looked like an electric current flowed in her body, and her rosary glowed for a moment.

Gabriel: Oi, Moka!

He panicked and immediately ran to her, but was stopped from a barrier that gave him an electrical shock.

Gabriel: Tch… Don't worry, I will save you.

Moka: No… You… Mustn't come… My power won't… Hold this thing back much longer… Run!

Gabriel: To hell with it! I'm taking you back, I'm killing this shit, and I'm erasing Fairy Tale… Now let me break the barrier…

Before he could punch the shit out of the barrier, he froze on his stop and turned around with a serious look on his face, the girl was back… From the floor.

Akua: No, I apologize… But that would be most troubling.

Gabriel: Yo, who the hell are you?

Akua: I am Akua Shuzen, an assassin from the Miao Family.

Gabriel: ...Shuzen… I heard a bit about you from Moka. As much as I want to chat with you, we clearly have different objectives.

Akua: You are right, however, just because you are Moka's boyfriend, it doesn't mean I will have mercy on you.

Gabriel: Welp… Hey Moka, can I kill her?

Moka: W-What? NO! What the fuck Gabriel?! She's my sister!

Gabriel: *Sigh* Alright…

Akua raised her arm, ready to unleash the Dimensional Sword on Gabriel, and then she kicked the ground, jumping at Gabriel, he used his own Dimensional Sword at Akua, blocking her attack.

Akua was surprised since people who can use the Dimensional Sword were popping out like mushrooms, and tried to use her Youki to strengthen herself, however Gabriel won't budge of an inch.

A shockwave came out from the clash between the two, followed from Akua's Youki taking form in a pitch black aura while Gabriel used a bit of his Nen, filling the entire room with black and dark purple.

Akua jumped away from Gabriel, and prepared herself for another attack, but Gabriel rushed at her same speed towards her, surprising her again, before using the Dimensional Sword once again, Akua sidestepped at her left, dodging the attack, even if some of her hair were cut off.

Gabriel followed her with his eyes before he stopped using the Dimensional Sword and backhanded Akua, she blocked the attack, even if it left a small bruise on her arm and was flung some meters away.

Akua: Tch…

Akua's bruise slowly disappeared thanks to her regeneration, after that, she took a stance and filled her body with Youki, then she sprinted at Gabriel.

The latter just walked towards her, and when both of them reached each other, Gabriel threw an upper kick at her chin, but she grabbed his foot before she reared back her arm and drived a palm strike on Gabriel's chest, that he caught with one of his free hands.

After that moment of silence, Akua let him go and backed away, and then she started to wait for his next strike, Gabriel didn't gave a fuck about knowing that it was a trap and threw a punch at her, Akua used one hand to move away his fist before delivering a devastating punch at his chest.

Like before, Gabriel easily caught her attack before lifting her up and slamming her on the floor, but she turned intangible before her face met the ground, Gabriel stood silent, waiting for any sign of sound or movement, before his eyes turned down and raised a foot.

Under his foot, an hand came out, but it failed to hit Gabriel, then Gabriel stomped on the hand using a variant of the Dimensional Sword on his foot, breaking it.

Akua: AAARRRGGGHHHH!!!

Soon, she came out from the floor while holding her left hand, which was broken.

Gabriel: That's all?

Akua: I...I'll kill you…!

Akua snapped and got all out against Gabriel, she tried to slash him with a Dimensional Sword, but he immediately threw a fist at her, surprisingly, she passed through Gabriel's body and came at the other side, using really the Dimensional Sword.

Gabriel just answered by stepping forward and throwing an horsekick at her, she crouched down and delivered an elbow attack on him, however, he stomped down his leg that was used to attack before he crouched down and swiped another leg under hers.

She stumbled down, but she supported herself with both of her hands before twisting her body around, delivering countless kicks at Gabriel, who just blocked them.

Akua: What's the matter? You aren't anymore that strong?!

The moment she finished that sentence, she was suddenly slammed against a nearby wall with an hand on her flat chest, blocking her movements.

Gabriel: So you think you will be able to win against that low level of power? Let me show you what means being "Overpowered".

In less than a second, his skin turned in ash and revealed his true form, shocking Akua from his appearance.

Akua: You…!

Gabriel raised his free hand and delivered a Nen-charged fist on Akua, sending her on the other side of the wall with some broken ribs.

Akua was unable to get up from there, so Gabriel just looked at her for the last time before he turned towards Moka.

Gabriel: Mok-

*Slash*

Gabriel immediately bent down his body, avoiding an hand that almost sliced him in half.

?: *Sigh* And I thought I was hiding my presence at the perfection…

Gabriel's tail shot behind him, trying to hit whoever there was, but it hit nothing, so he turned around and saw his opponent.

It was a woman with tanned skin and light blond, shoulder-length hair, she had violet eyes and was wearing an oversized commander jacket and under that there was a short black dress.

Behind her, there was Kahlua, looking at him with a confused gaze.

Gabriel: It was stupid thinking that you can easily escape my senses… So, who the hell are you?

?: Heh… Hehe… You are right, someone that reached this place alone isn't someone simple. I am Gyokuro Shuzen, the commander-in-chief of Fairy Tale.
