Having traversed countless realms, can you possibly be as clever as me?

With just the simple act of standing up, the already ravaged earth within a radius of several kilometers around him sank several meters further, as if struck by an invisible hammer! The shockwave...

No matter when or where, the book club forum is your most loyal reading companion.

It spread in a ring shape, completely crushing the ruins into dust, and violently churning up the remaining water of the Weiyuan River, splashing it towards the distant embankment.

There are no fancy moves or skills; all you need here is pure brute force!

Tsugumi lacked and found it difficult to use the power of the weakened Saint Panel, but he transformed all the magic power of his Demon Character Card into the strength of this pure physical body through the power of jealousy.

Although it lacks the purity and power of Adam's posture, but—

That's enough!

The instant Tsugumi charged forward, Sukuna roared and unleashed the full power of the vengeful pill in his hand. The blade hummed, and a murderous aura soared into the sky as he launched the most violent vertical slash at Tsugumi, who had just gotten up!

This strike contained all its curses and destruction; wherever the blade passed, a dark, long-lasting crack was torn through the space!

However, Tsurugi did not dodge at all. Instead, she raised her left arm, which was covered by a thick carapace, spread her five fingers, and grabbed straight at the falling blade of calamity!

clang!!!!!!

It was like two steel mountains colliding at supersonic speed! An indescribable roar instantly tore through the atmosphere, and a visible circular shockwave spread wildly outward from the point of contact!

Wherever the shockwave reached, countless windows of buildings that were still relatively intact turned to dust. The ground was like a blanket lifted up by a giant, with layers of earth churning and pushing outward, turning up underground pipes, subway tunnels, and foundation debris to the surface, and then crushing them.

The nearest mountain peaks were even more unfortunate; the upper half of the rock mass collapsed and slid down under the combined effect of sound waves and vibrations, triggering a massive torrent of earth and rocks.

At that moment, Tsurugi's hand grasped the blade of Sukunagi. Sukunagi's face turned red, and the muscles manifested by its demonic body swelled to their limit. Its bulging blood vessels were like writhing earthworms. It roared and pressed down with all its weight and strength, trying to push the blade into that terrifying giant claw and split its opponent in two!

The blade scraped against the carapace, emitting a chilling shriek and sending up plumes of eerie sparks and energy fragments. The ground could not withstand the confrontation of these two immense forces; centered on them, a massive crater over five hundred meters in diameter was forming, its walls' soil and rock compressed by the extreme force into a smooth, mirror-like glass.

The stalemate lasted only a moment.

A violent light appeared in Tsurugi's burning pupils. With a roar, he grabbed the blade's left claw and twisted it to the side!

Snap! Snap!

A crisp snapping sound rang out, and the vengeful mace that had descended with Sukunaki and was manifested by the power of the Holy Grail to cleave mountains and earth was twisted off the middle of the blade by pure brute force!

The broken half of the blade spun and flew out like a runaway crimson comet, crashing diagonally into a hilly area several kilometers away. Where the broken blade passed, it sliced ​​a deep valley straight through the hill, the blade ultimately wedging itself deep into the earth, triggering an earthquake that caused the remaining parts of the Fuyuki Bridge in the distance to collapse with a deafening roar.

Sukuna roared, dropped the blade in his hand, and began to frantically swing his fists at Tsugumi.

The demon's fists, imbued with a scarlet aura, landed on Tsurugi's muscles, which were covered by thick scales, with each strike.

Bang bang bang bang bang! ! !

One blow after another, the heavy sound was like an iron hammer pounding on an iron felt, each strike carrying the force of ten thousand tons, and the tearing sonic boom was clearly visible!

However, this did not work.

Tsurugi grinned, his five fingers like the strongest cage, and grabbed the wrist of Sukuna Oni's sword-wielding arm! The scales rubbed against the oni's tough skin, producing a metallic, twisting sound.

Immediately afterward, Tsugumi's massive body began to move. He stepped back with his right foot, twisting his waist like a bow, and the power in his entire body—the accumulated power of the three original sins, a pure brute force powerful enough to shake the earth—instantly flowed into his right arm. His right fist clenched tightly, bone spurs grotesque, the fist blade radiating only the primal destruction brought by mass and speed.

One punch landed on Sukuna-ki's head, where the angry face and the inner face overlapped!

A deliberate, deliberate punch!

Sukuna only had time to hurriedly block with his other arm.

*Thud—Boom!*

After the dullest impact, came the terrifying sound of flesh and bones being crushed and exploded in an instant!

The moment Sukuna-ki's parrying arm made contact with the fist, it bent unnaturally, the sound of bones cracking like popping beans. The fist shattered its arm defense almost without resistance, and with undiminished force, slammed into its cheek!

The enormous head snapped to the side, its crimson skin on its furious face instantly ripping open, and broken teeth mixed with dark golden blood gushed out like a waterfall! The cold smile on its face was completely twisted into a look of agony!

The force of the punch was so great that Sukuna Oni's mountain-like body was sent spinning half a circle in mid-air before crashing heavily to the side and backward!

boom----!!!

Its body crashed into the already shattered city, like a giant meteorite falling! The ground exploded into a crater even larger than before, and the shockwave blew away and leveled everything above ground within a one-kilometer radius, whether it was building debris or tumbled earth and rocks!

Smoke and dust, mixed with the dark red light of the underworld, shot into the sky, forming a slowly blooming, filthy mushroom cloud.

Tsugumi dropped his left claw, which was clutching a severed half of the wrist, leaving Sukuna's mangled body convulsing in the giant crater. He took a step forward, his massive foot stomping down, completely turning what was once a park area into a sunken, scorched earth.

He lowered his head, his burning pupils locking onto the struggling ghost at the bottom of the pit, and slowly raised his right fist—the very fist that had just shattered the other's head. The blade was still stained with dark gold ghost blood and fragments of bone.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The relentless punches, carrying a force that shook the earth, rang out continuously.

Is this the kind of scene that should appear in the Holy Grail War?

Sitting atop the Iskandar chariot, Kenneth stared in disbelief at the battle scene below, feeling a chill run down his spine, his eyes wide with amazement, and his scalp tingling.

You're telling me that the Diarmuid I summoned is theoretically the same kind of thing as these?

What the hell is the point of fighting? Just give them the Holy Grail!

Oh, so they're rulers and therefore don't participate in wars?

But tell me, that thing doesn't look like a saint or an angel at all!

At this moment, the entire city of Fuyuki has been almost completely destroyed by the war between the two monsters.

Looking at all this, Kenneth felt only a sense of relief, in addition to being in a daze.

It's over, it's finally over.

Once the Holy Grail War is over, he can go home, and all of this can finally be over!

Tsugumi beat Sukuna to death.

He ripped off its head, shattered its body, burned every cell with endless flames and lightning, then smashed and swallowed its head whole. This monster, projected from another universe, was utterly destroyed, and the Holy Grail fell to the ground in emptiness.

At the same time, Fuyuki was also completely destroyed by him.

Is it over? Tsuruge narrowed his eyes. No, his nose could smell a million kinds of trouble, and the current smell hadn't dissipated yet!

And—it's still a little short.

Dongjiang lowered his head and heard the sound of horses' hooves. He looked down and saw an incredibly tiny figure.

Riding Red Hare, Lü Bu slowly approached him on the main road. Looking at Tsurugi, he lowered his tall head. Even though he was almost completely enveloped in Tsurugi's terrifying aura, this demonic general still revealed a ferocious smile to him.

He survived, he returned from the abyss of death! His spiritual core was shattering, and everything that sustained his life once again was fading away.

But Lü Bu was fearless.

"You still owe me the final blow!"

etc.

He pointed his halberd at the Dongjiang River and shouted loudly.

"What do you mean? I withstood three of your moves." Tsurugi's voice boomed like thunder, yet carried a mocking, half-smiling tone.

"I don't care, you're the strongest here. You were too perfunctory when you took my fourth strike last time, so you have to take my final move!"

Lu Bu answered in an almost shameless manner.

"It'll be the seventh day soon. If you survive, you might just win. At the very least, you'll be able to participate in the next round."

"I don't care about any of that!" Lu Bu said nonchalantly, slinging his halberd over his shoulder.

"I only know that you are a strong opponent worthy of my challenge! But if you leave, who will I challenge?"

“Okay, let’s do it then!” Tsurugi agreed readily.

A very small number of survivors watched this scene from the ruins. They saw the towering demon, its eyes like molten gold, and the small, yet fearless, figure standing at the monster's feet.

A surge of courage and passion, seemingly from nowhere, fueled their support for this voice!

"Charge! Defeat that monster!!"

Although the other side they are trying to defeat is the same person they were cheering for not long ago.

Lu Bu opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of fangs. He took a deep breath, and in an instant, he squeezed out every drop of blood and every bit of strength from his body!

His body withered instantly, his blood and strength vanished, and even his soul was transformed into the power of this attack!

Lean your body back, grip the halberd's end tightly with your fingers, and suppress your breath to zero!

The red hare beneath him, carrying its master, neighed and spewed blood as it leaped wildly forward!

Compared to him, Tsurugi was as tall as a mountain! He was just a tiny ant.

But at this moment, in this instant, the ant's brilliance shone brighter than the stars.

"sky--!!!!"

Having poured in his last strength and everything he had, Lü Bu unleashed his final strike!

However, halfway through, his body began to turn to ashes—in this world, a human body could no longer withstand the power of this attack, and the Holy Grail, whose magic power had been drained by Sukuna, could no longer provide him with magic power!

"Do not!!!!"

Lu Bu roared, howling with resentment! He still had one more attack to deliver, his strongest strike yet to be unleashed. Last time, his life ended here. Was he destined to repeat the same mistake this time?

At that moment, a massive amount of magical power was injected into Lu Bu's body from a distance.

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the huge demon god in front of him, laughed loudly, and once again gripped the halberd with his newly formed hand.

This debt of gratitude can only be repaid with a single blow!

The radiance of the Heavenly Eater ripped through the void, tearing apart everything, and with an unstoppable, terrifying power, swept towards Tsugumi!

Everything was silent and empty, and Lu Bu, after unleashing this earth-shattering blow, turned to ashes with a satisfied smile.

Dongjiang opened his hand, watching drop after drop of blood flow into his palm, followed by a fountain of blood! The surging, fading power flowed from the almost gaping wound on his head, but Dongjiang wasn't angry. Instead, he looked at the vanishing Lü Bu and smiled.

"I will remember you, Lü Bu. Farewell!"

With that, he threw a punch that pierced through the molten fire between heaven and earth, turning him to ashes!

The first rays of dawn shone down, their dazzling light illuminating the eyes of the avatar of the Tsurugi River, which were like molten gold.

The next moment, he felt an inexplicable force enveloping and absorbing him, and then, like a bubble wrapped in a thin film, he began to 'leap' backward!

Beneath his feet, the corpse of Sukuna Oni turned to ashes inch by inch, as if it had existed for millennia, before entering his enormous body. At that moment, the system's voice echoed in his ears.
