The energy bullet hit Sam.
Just as White thought, Sam indeed removed his fusion form and stood in front of the energy bullet with no visible defense whatsoever. The hit landed on his chest.
*BOOM*
The bullet hit him with a massive explosion. Surprisingly the force only stunned him. It spread across his body to halt his muscles as well as energy circulation. If someone who has a weak control over energy got hit by this, then they would have problem with recoils.
However, with Sam's current control, he was only forced to stop moving.
To achieve that only a small portion of energy from that energy bullet as utilized. The rest of the energy moved in a spiral motion as it dissolved from that energy bullet form and spread around Sam, creating a large sphere with nodes at specific areas.
The last portion of the energy again hit Sam.
It is just like a regular recoil hit.
Sam wobbled and flew to one of the nodes of the sphere.
*BOOM*
