Crossover Anime: The King of Time? Actually, He's a Slacker!

Di Ming's figure shot out, two spiked clubs held horizontally in front of him. He first knocked Hui Yao, who rushed up, away like a roadside slingshot, and then launched a storm of attacks on Cai Ye.

Caiye staggered backward, her twin swords flashing like a dense curtain of blades as she desperately parried the powerful attacks. The crisp clang of metal against metal echoed one after another, numbing her hands and making her ears ring.

"It must be tough living in Tokyo all by yourself. Do you have enough money?" Di Ming asked while attacking, seemingly at ease.

"If you have difficulties, you should at least tell your brother, not your mother, right?"

"Shut up!" Caiye precisely seized the tiny opening in the opponent's combo, flipped her wrist, and the blade, accompanied by the sound of wind cutting, went straight for Diming's head.

"What you can do, I can do too!"

Di Ming seemed to have anticipated this, tilting his head slightly back to perfectly dodge the attack. But Cai Ye was no pushover either; she guessed it wouldn't be easy, so she immediately followed up with a side kick.

"Not bad~" Di Ming chuckled, lightly touched the ground with his toes, and performed a graceful backflip, opening up a distance of several meters.

Seeing this, Caiye couldn't help but feel a sense of defeat.

Yes, she couldn't possibly beat her brother, after all, he'd been playing this game for a long time.

"Sneak attack!" Huiyao suddenly appeared from behind Diming and slammed his hammer down heavily.

But Di Ming didn't even turn around. He simply dodged to the side and delivered a clean and swift back kick to her chest.

"Ugh!" Radiance flew out again.

"Your health is quite low, Huiyao-chan," Diming kindly reminded him, his tone tinged with a hint of teasing.

"Damn it!" Huiyao punched the ground in frustration. Her perfect sneak attack had failed.

Di Ming, with a smile on his face, didn't look at her and continued speaking to Caiye:

"How about going home after the game?"

"Mom is just stern in words, but she misses you very much."

"I will prove that I can live well on my own." Aya stubbornly raised her chin, her voice trembling slightly.

"So much time has passed, are you still resentful towards her?" Di Ming asked softly.

"Are you lecturing me? How condescending." Caiye's knuckles turned white from the force, and her voice was as cold as ice.

"I thought at least you would understand me..."

"Yes, it's different from me. You've been a genius since you were a child, how could you understand the feelings of an ordinary person like me?"

Di Ming was speechless for a moment, and just looked at her quietly.

After a long pause, he sighed softly.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought this up."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force with his feet, instantly closing the distance between the two.

"For now, let's focus on the game!"

clang--!

The ear-piercing clang of metal clashing rang out again. Caiye barely managed to block the attack, letting out a muffled groan.

"Since you're so eager to prove yourself," Di Ming suddenly increased the force in his hand, sending Cai Ye flying. Then, he flashed forward and pressed his advantage, bringing down the spiked club with tremendous force before she could regain her footing!

"Then try to defeat me!"

Oops!

Caiye's pupils contracted sharply, but her body didn't have time to make any defensive movements.

But at this critical moment—

A streak of silver-blue light, carrying the force of thunder, suddenly tore through the sky and crashed down between the two with a devastating force!

boom--!

The violent shockwave spread out instantly, abruptly interrupting Di Ming's attack. He was forced to retreat more than ten steps before regaining his footing.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated.

When he finally saw the figure standing in the middle of the smoke and dust, his pupils contracted sharply, and his face was filled with disbelief.

"Hey, long time no see." Lin Shiye stood there with an arrogant smile on his face.

"I've returned from hell."

"Why are you here..." Di Ming asked through gritted teeth, as if he had just thought of something.

"What happened to Naiyi and Lei? What did you do to them?"

"Who knows?" Lin Shiye said casually as he twirled his cloud-like movements.

"I'm afraid... he won't be unharmed."

"You bastard!" Di Ming frowned, but then a surge of fighting spirit followed.

"Great, Shi Ye!" Hui Yao scrambled over to Lin Shi Ye's side, turned around, and viciously gave Di Ming the middle finger.

"Stop pretending! Weren't you so cocky just now? Come on, have a go at this guy!"

After saying that, she immediately leaned close to Lin Shiye's ear, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered:

"Dad, I really can't beat him, you have to take him down!"

Emperor Ming: ...

Caiye walked over and stood side by side with Lin Shiye and Huiyao.

"Now, what are you going to do?"

[Oh my god! Mumu has successfully defeated Naiyi and Lei in a one-against-two battle! He has now reached the main battlefield!] The commentator's voice was trembling with excitement, and he almost jumped up from the commentary booth.

[This is dangerous for Di Ming! Faced with such a huge numerical disadvantage, can he still create a miracle and turn defeat into victory?]

"Well done, Lin Shiye! You're awesome!" Iori and Kohei shouted in the audience.

"Hahaha! How delightful! So delightful!" A kind-hearted citizen waved his hand casually, and golden lucky coins rained down from the sky like a downpour.

"This is my reward, take it all!"

"Holy crap! The boss is so generous!"

"Don't anyone try to take it from me!"

"Lucky Coins! My Lucky Coins!"

The audience erupted into chaos. Iori and Kohei, who had been cheering just moments before, instantly changed their expressions and pounced on the fallen lucky coins with a howl.

"That guy..." Emiya Shirou looked at the chaotic scene over there, his forehead covered in black lines.

"Hmph, King of Heroes, you have no manners of a king at all, what a disgrace!" Artoria mumbled, stuffing a handful of popcorn into her mouth.

It's amazing that you can taste such realistic food in a game.

Sakura smiled gently beside her, turned around to say something to her older sister, but immediately saw Rin Tohsaka rush into the crowd of people robbing money.

"..."

Let's return our attention to the match.

"You think you've got me cornered?" Di Ming's gaze swept over the three people in front of him, and he smiled disdainfully.

"I admit you're strong, Mumu. But after such a tough battle, your health is in pretty bad shape."

"Two with low health, one with half health... Do you think you can bury me?"

Just as Caiye was about to utter some harsh words, she heard Lin Shiye's laughter beside her.

The next second, he clenched his iron fist and slammed it heavily into his chest!

Boom-!

A dull, drum-like sound suddenly exploded, and the terrifying power caused the surrounding air to tremble violently. The hard arena floor cracked in response, and spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly outwards from the center.

A suffocating pressure instantly enveloped the entire area. Caiye and Diming's eyes sharpened simultaneously, and they instantly understood what he was about to do.

"It's so noisy and nagging!"

"We've come this far, so let's stop wasting words!"

Caiye and Diming also raised their hands at the same time, and surging energy burst forth from their bodies.

Upon seeing this, the commentator immediately realized that something big was about to happen, and quickly zoomed in, revealing three solemn faces on the big screen at the same time.

Could it be...?

"Beast Soul True Form! x3"

"Beast..." Huiyao's eyes widened.

"Wait, wait a minute!"

boom---!

Three enormous phantom figures shot into the sky!

The azure water dragon raised its head and roared, stirring up towering waves.

The nine-tailed red fox swung its tail, which was burning with flames, and foxfire danced in the sky.

The phantom of a blue-faced, fanged demon, wielding a giant axe, let out a deafening roar.

Three illusory figures stood in a tripod formation, their terrifying energy sweeping across the entire arena, causing the air to boil.

"Let the battle rage on!"
