*BOOOOOOOM!*
However, Karna wasn't a weak hero and fought back Raikou's attack.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
With the sound of explosions, the ground that seemed to be hit by an explosion was shattering, collapsing, then disintegrating, instantly destroyed without the hope to return to its former shape anymore.
Karna, whose body was covered in flames, flashed out from the barrage of the Raikou's thunder attacks and retreated.
However, almost at the same time, Raikou, who was covered in thunder also charged fiercely, like an electric light, and caught up with Karna in the blink of an eye.
"HAAAAAA!!!"
Raikou seemed to lose herself and her pair of red eyes flashing, like a demon, and suddenly slashed her katana at Karna.
"!!!"
Karna didn't hesitate to raise his spear to block this attack.
*BOOOOM!*
In the deafening sound, the strong wind exploded like a blast.
"HAAAAAA!!!"
However, Raikou didn't stop and as her katana glowed in thunder, she violently attacked Karna without mercy.
*Clang!* *Clang!* *Clang!*
The fierce clash that shook the earth sounded.
Raikou continued to swing, slash, and stab at Karna, causing the thunder to explode and the strong wind to spread, causing the earth and the sky to be swept away by how fierce her attack was.
Karna kept holding his spear, blocking Raikou's attacks one by one, but he was forced to retreat and couldn't counter, being forced in defensive pose all the time and it didn't take a long time before his defense was destroyed.
*Splash!*
With a tearing sound in the air, the katana bypassed Karna's spear and slashed Karna's armor, skin, and flesh.
However, that didn't end, and the katana kept slashing Karna's body, causing numerous wounds to appear on his body.
At that moment, that Karna began to frown and his expression gradually turned solemn.
Karna possessed an armor that was given by his father, God of Sun, Surya. By wearing this armor, no matter what kind of attack it was, as long as it was a physical attack, all of them would be reduced to one-tenth of the original power.
With that kind of damage, Karna could instantly heal his wounds.
Therefore, Karna, who possessed this armor, was called the undead hero, and even Arjuna who dueled with him on the story could only kill him after he had lost his armor.
Because of that, although he didn't possess an immortal body like Achilles, Karna's durability wasn't below Achilles and he also didn't have an obvious weakness like Achiless either. In other words, he was the most durable hero in this Holy Grail War.
If Jeanne didn't stay at Shinobu's body and greatly increased her status, then defeating Karna was something very hard to do.
Karna, who was known as one of the best heroes, was definitely not an empty talk.
Kavacha and Kundala, that was the name of Karna's Noble Phantasm.
A powerful defensive anti-unit Noble Phantasm Rank A, that protected Karna's safety all the time.
With that armor, even if it was Vlad III, who was summoned on his own land and also gained a boost from the Holy Grail under the Fortress of Millennia, it would be difficult to defeat Karna.
However, Raikou had a way to deal with this Noble Phantasm.
---
Mystery-Slayer (A-Rank): The declaration that she was the strongest Mystery Slayer of the Heian period becoming a Skill. This skill is effective Anti-Mystery and with this skill, she can deal with a lot of mystery beings such as monsters, demons, ghosts are particularly effective. and even servants that don't exist on historical facts. She can deal full damage, no matter how strong the defense is and it can only be resisted by a Noble Phantasm or skill with the same rank.
---
However, as long as a servant who existed on the myth was cornered, then this skill could be called the natural enemy.
Whether it was the immortal Siegfried who bathed in dragon blood, or the demigod of Greek, Achilles, or even Jack the Ripper, who would suffer great damage under this skill.
Karna also belonged to this category.
The hero of charity and the son of the God of Sun was recorded in the epic of Indian mythology.
In front of the strongest mysterious slayer, his armor would be penetrated by Raikou's attack and he would also receive more damage.
However, it didn't mean that Karna's armor was useless and it could resist Raikou's skill, but even if it could resist Raikuo's still, it didn't mean that it could affect Raikou's skill,
Under the effect of Mystery-Slayer, Karna's armor that could reduce anyone's attack into one-tenth of the original damage, now, could only reduce Raikou's damage into one-fourth, considering how her status was being upgraded by Haru.
Those remaining three-fourths possessed enough of a threat to Karna.
Coupled with the fact that Raikou seemed to have turned into an Oni, the previous superb swordsmanship also faintly brought a trace of frenzy, making the trajectory of her attack more unpredictable and the sudden onslaught caught Karna off guard.
As a result, this undead hero turned into a bloody soldier, his whole body was covered in wounds and blood.
Even so, Raikou attacked Karna!
Her eyes glowered red, her face was frantic, and she had become a madman. Her breathing became rapid and erratic, no matter who saw her at this moment, they could only think of one existence to describe her.
Oni.
However, her performance at the moment really fitted her identity as a Berserker-class servant.
After all, her usual calm act and lady-like performance didn't fit the description of Berserker-class servant.
Even if Raikou was in this condition, Karna's complexion was still calm.
Karna only said, "Have you awakened the "Oni" on your body?" As soon as the voice fell, he suddenly abandoned all of his defense, his sharp spear that was burning with flame suddenly moved very fast, stabbing Raikou's head.
At the same time, the thunder flashing Katana cut through the sky and slashed toward Karna's heart.
Head and heart.
The two of them the core location of the servant. Once it was crushed, no matter how strong the servant was, they could only disappear.
Raikou and Karna ignored the deadly weapons on their opponents' hands then hit the location of the core.
If their weapons really hit the cores of each other's bodies then without doubt the two of them would die together, and this ending was something that didn't want to be seen by one person.
Then suddenly someone appeared in the middle of Raikou and Karna.
"!!!"
Karna startled, but Raikou quickly recovered from her frenzy state, then both of them quickly stopped their attacks, however, Haru's appearance was so sudden that they couldn't fully stop their attacks!
Haru then took a deep breath and covered his hands with "Busoshoku Haki", gravity magic, armor from IS, and HI-ERO particles, causing his defense to increase several times, then holding both katana and spear on both of his hands.
"....."
Raikou and Karna stared blankly at how Haru clamped down their weapons with his hands. They were amazed by Haru's power since it was as if their weapons were being weighed down by a mountain.
"....."
Raikou quickly recovered and became nervous.
"Dear... I..."
However...
"Ouch!"
Raikou held her forehead since she was flicked, but she didn't dare to look at him.
"Good grief, what should I do with you?"
"I..."
Raikou wanted to say something, but...
"Wait here, I need to take care of something first, but when I return..."
Raikou shrank her neck like a child that was afraid of being scolded by her parents.
Haru patted Raikou's head and let out a sigh, then looked at Karna.
"I know that your fight is unavoidable, but can you stop your fight for a while?"
"Yes."
Karna nodded without hesitation.
"Then I will go now."
Then suddenly Haru disappeared in a flash since he didn't doubt Karna's character.
"....."
Karna and Raikou didn't say anything, but then they realized what was the thing that Haru needed to take care of before.
*Rumble!*
At that moment, the entire battlefield began to shake.
Immediately, they turned their heads and looked in one direction.
The ground was trembling as if it was crying, but it definitely not the sad cry, but rather it was a cry of happiness.
For the existence of the Noble Phantasm that was about to be born, the vibration swept the entire battlefield.
Soon after, everyone saw it, a giant slowly stood up.
