Chapter 36 Flying Hit

"First battle, Cyril Reeds vs (Insert name here)" 02 said and in a flash of light I appeared on the arena. 'I am first, again?' I thought in annoyance as I gazed at my opponent.

He took out a sword as he gazed at me with piercing eyes. "AHHH" He screamed while charging towards me. A few seconds later the swordsman had appeared in front of me. "Haki!" I said as I blocked his sword with my haki coated hand.

"CLANG!"

The sword vibrated as it slid of my hand. Immediately the swordsman began to fall to the side as I punched towards his gut. But my hand never connected as he suddenly flashed to the side while muttering "Dash."

Once he stabilized he looked towards me with an even more serious expression. "DOUBLE HIT!" He yelled as his sword swung downward. Along with it appeared a phantom image. To this I simply dodged to the right and appeared behind him.

"KAAA-MEEE-HAAA-MEEE-HAAAA!" I screamed as I slammed both my palms onto his back. "AGHHH!" The boy screamed as he hurdled through the air and crashed onto the arena.

He didn't give up though as he quickly got up as his wounds slowly regenerated. 'Wait he has passive regeneration!? Is this a videogame?' I though in annoyance although it was to be expected from an rpgesque type.

Seeing that he was becoming stronger the more time passed, I quickly dashed towards him. Once I appeared in front of him I punched towards his chest. In a split second he deflected my fist with his sword and slashed towards my waist immediately afterwards.

As the sword drew nearer I quickly coated my waist in haki to block the attack. "CLANG!" Thankfully it worked as the sword was repelled backwards yet again.

"Fine! Since you wanted to play the hard way we'll play the hard way." I said as I rushed backwards. "Purifier." I muttered as Purifier appeared within my hand. "What!?!" The swordsman said in shock. Even those in the crowd were confused as they had though that I had picked martial arts as a weapon. Of course those in my year already knew.

Immediately I began to swing Purfier as I neared closer and closer to the swordsman. Seeing this he wasn't idle either as his sword began to glow red. Once I had reached a distance of 10 meters away from him, he moved his sword as he shouted "DASH!" "DASH!" One after the other.

With that he bolted towards me with his sword piercing towards me. To this I simply swung Purifier towards him, but he didn't block instead he sped up towards me. His sword an inch away from my heart was blazing in heat, when suddenly I flew into the sky.

This all happened in the time it took a person to blink. "BOOM!" Purifier had slammed onto the ground propelling me into the air. As I flew through the air my feet suddenly hit a wall of sorts. 'As I suspected.' I thought as I jumped off of the invisible barrier with all my might.

"PUUU!" The air quaked as I hurdled towards the swordsman while swinging Purifier in front of me. I now had the appearance of an old plane as I reached the boy. He couldn't do anything now apart from stabbing his sword forward.

Before it could even touch Purifier though, it hit the phantom images which immediately knocked the sword out of his hands. The second one the knocked him to the otherside of the arena with immense power.

Last but not least, Purifier's through body hit into the arena slowing down my descent. The swordsman now lay bloody and bruised, he was lucky to be alive. Soon enough 02 stated "Cyril Reeds wins."

With that I was transported to my area while the swordsman was taken to be healed. "Man that was tiring." I said to myself as Purifier disappeared. Everyone now looked at me as if they had seen a devil.

"COOL FIGHT!" Jack shouted from his area in support while Drake gave a thumbs up. "Thanks, I wish you guys luck!" I told them both as the matches continued.
