Boom! Boom!! Boom! Boom! Boom!!! Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat-tat!!!
"Attack! Attack!! Kill these monsters!"
"Ah, don't come any closer!"
"Help me…"
On Kamikura Island, the sounds of battle and slaughter continued incessantly, and the air was thick with the smell of gunpowder. If one sniffed carefully, they could also detect a faint scent of blood mixed in.
Carrying Karasuba, with Kusano and Matsu in tow, Sora and the others slowly made their way toward the seaside.
From time to time, stray bullets would fly their way, but they were always blocked by suddenly appearing ice shields. Occasionally, they would encounter some lone invaders, but they would be struck by purple lightning from the sky, turning into piles of black ash.
"Hey, Kusano, Matsu, you don't have to stay so far away, do you?" Sora said helplessly, looking at Kusano and Matsu, who had been keeping a considerable distance from him the entire way.
"Hehe, Matsu doesn't mind, but Kusano seems to still be scared of the one you're holding," Matsu, wearing glasses, said with a grin, pulling Kusano, who looked terrified.
Sora shook his head in resignation. It made sense; every time the little loli encountered Karasuba, it was always a scene of her look like a ferocious demon ready to kill. Such encounters had undoubtedly left a shadow on the innocent little girl's heart.
"Don't worry, Kusano. This fierce woman can't even move a finger now. You should come closer; otherwise, how can big brother protect you?"
Although he doubted it would work, Sora still tried to coax the little loli.
As expected, the little loli hiding behind Matsu kept shaking her head. Compared to the occasional stray bullets, she was clearly more afraid of Karasuba.
Even though the other party couldn't move at all now!
"Sigh… then you two be careful!"
Seeing the little loli so determined, Sora had no choice but to let her be.
He cast a disdainful glance at Karasuba in his arms, as if saying:
"See, crazy woman, this is all your doing!"
With a light snort, Karasuba naturally understood the meaning behind Sora's gaze. She turned her head to the side, a faint blush on her cheeks.
Uh, don't misunderstand. The blush wasn't because Karasuba felt guilty or anything; it was because of Sora's hands, which kept moving around on her body…
…
Splash… splash… rustle rustle…
The waves crashing against the shore, which usually sounded cheerful, now seemed somewhat subdued. The small animals seemed to sense the unusual atmosphere as well, all retreating to their nests.
"Hey? How should I put it? It's really quite a sight…"
Looking at the dense array of warships covering the entire sea, Sora's lips curled into a smile. He found a relatively flat rock and sat down, seemingly unconcerned about the cannons now aimed at him.
"Hehe, hehehe, I can't hold back anymore!" Licking her crimson lips, Karasuba also revealed an enchanting smile.
Along the way, her injuries had been healed by Sora, and she had regained some of her strength. It seemed that seeing her prey had excited her, and she struggled to stand up.
However, Sora's strong hands firmly held her down, and no matter how much Karasuba struggled, she couldn't move an inch. Glaring at Sora in annoyance, Karasuba eventually had no choice but to obediently lie in his arms.
"Um, Sora, I think we shouldn't stay here. It's really dangerous, ha… haha…"
Even the usually carefree Matsu, wearing glasses, couldn't handle this scene, her eyelids twitching. The little loli behind her also nodded vigorously, her face filled with fear.
"Well, I wanted to enjoy the view a bit longer, but since you all don't like it, I'll make them all disappear now."
Sora also sensed the fear of the two girls and decided not to tease them anymore. His lips curled into a cold smile as he activated the water power he had shared with Miya.
"Sky-Piercing… Water Pillars!"
Boom! Boom boom boom!!!
Massive water pillars erupted from the previously calm sea, their deafening roars piercing the sky, as if they were trying to tear through the heavens themselves!
Whether it was Matsu, Kusano, or even the usually fearless Karasuba, all were stunned by this sudden spectacle!
With the emergence of these sky-piercing water pillars, the dense fleet covering the entire sea instantly collapsed!
Some were capsized into the sea, some were pierced with huge holes, but most were sent flying tens or even hundreds of meters into the air…
Explosions, screams, countless fragments of wreckage, mixed with the rain, returned to the embrace of the sea…
In less than three minutes, the entire fleet covering the sea, except for the ten super-large cruisers, was annihilated!
"Well, didn't you say you wanted to become my blade? Now, destroy them all for me!"
Looking at Karasuba, who was still in shock, Sora whispered in her ear. Then, he kissed her cherry lips.
This time, it wasn't to make her recite a prayer; it was merely to transfer the power of the Sekirei into her body.
Feeling the surging power within her, Karasuba's face revealed an enchanting smile. She took her weapon and stood up.
"Yes, I am your blade, to cut down all enemies."
With that, Karasuba slashed at the void in front of her, then a second slash, a third slash…
Until the tenth slash!
With each slash, a massive sword energy blade shot out, cutting a warship in half and sending it sinking to the bottom of the sea…
When the last warship sank into the sea, a snow-white ripple spread out from the shore. Wherever the ripple passed, the sea surface froze, and in the blink of an eye, the entire sea had turned into a world of ice and snow.
"Ashikabi-sama!"
"Master!"
"Sora…"
With a series of whooshing sounds, figures began to appear one after another. It was Tsukiumi, Musubi, Akitsu, and Benitsubasa, who had completed their tasks and rushed over upon noticing the commotion here.
Looking at the frozen sea, occasionally spotting a human body or a fragment of a warship, the girls knew this was Sora's doing, and their faces showed expressions of awe.
But none of them said anything.
Sora was their Ashikabi-sama, their king. Even if he wanted to destroy the world, they would do it for him!
Moreover, the enemy was one that wanted to send them to the dissection table to be cut into pieces for research. No matter how merciful they were, the girls would not feel any pity for them.
"Bad news! Sora, they've launched nuclear missiles!" Suddenly, Matsu, who had been silent, opened her eyes, her face filled with terror, and urgently reported.
"A final counterattack? How many?" Sora's expression turned serious as he asked.
"Fifty…" Matsu herself seemed unable to believe the number she had just uttered.
Hearing Matsu's answer, the girls were all shocked. If it were just one or two, they could handle it, but now…
"Ha… one nuclear missile is enough to destroy the capital ten times over. Fifty missiles would mean five hundred times."
"How should I put it? My lovely little Sekireis, it seems the world leaders have been utterly terrified by you!"
"Since they can't have you, they want to completely destroy you, huh?"
With a mocking smile, even Sora hadn't expected the world leaders to go to such lengths!
"What should we do, Sora?" Kazehana stepped forward, her usual levity gone, her expression grave.
The other girls were equally anxious, all their eyes fixed on Sora.
Fifty nuclear missiles—even if just one landed, no one in the entire capital would survive!
Sora stroked his chin, his expression calm, as if he had made a decision. Finally, he spoke:
"Well, there's no other choice. We'll have to use that move!"
With a mysterious smile, Sora said something cryptic, then closed his eyes and fell silent.
Though the girls didn't understand what he meant, no one questioned him at that moment. They simply waited quietly. Only No. 2 Matsu, standing to the side, seemed to realize something, a sharp glint flashing behind her large round glasses.
At the same time, back at Izumo Inn, the Sekirei Queen, Miya, who had been standing in the courtyard, suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of beautiful purple irises.
"As you command, my king!"
With a breathtaking smile, Miya raised a delicate finger toward the sky, pointing at the floating mystical island…
…
"It's here!"
On Kamikura Island, Matsu, who had been monitoring the situation through satellite imagery, spoke up again.
The girls, including Sora, all looked up at the sky. From the distant horizon, a cluster of black dots was rapidly approaching.
But just then, an unexpected change occurred!
Light—blindingly bright light—emanated from the floating island of Kouten!
The island, supported by massive white wings, had transformed into a glowing white orb!
Without a sound, without any warning, countless people watched in horror as one energy beam after another shot out from the "orb."
If anyone had counted, they would have noticed that there were exactly fifty beams!
Boom! Boom boom boom!!!
Each beam struck a nuclear missile, and instantly, massive fireballs erupted in the sky. The terrifying energy storms seemed ready to tear the heavens apart.
Even though they were still tens of thousands of meters above the ground, the immense shockwaves caused the entire earth to tremble.
"What is this…?" The girls stared in awe as the glowing orb gradually returned to its original form as an island.
"The power of Kouten!"
