A person in Honkai Impact, just became a Decade Knight

Did these two train their minds to an unparalleled degree, thus ignoring the effects of the Phoenix Bottle?

Or perhaps... it's for some other reason?

"Forget it, now is not the time to think about these things."

After throwing out a card that had just popped out automatically, the left and right halves of Gu Yu's body simultaneously began to emit an incomparably dazzling light.

【FinalAttackRide BBBBuild】

After the thirty bottles of organic matter and the thirty bottles of inorganic matter simultaneously unleashed terrifying energy, Gu Yu seized the slight opening left by the two after they released their ultimate moves, and directly grabbed their heads with his hands, which were filled with energy.

"Did you enjoy the fight, you two...?"

In the chaos, Gu Yu grabbed the heads of both Hong Gui and Zhan Gui, and Gu Yu slammed their heads together against each other's foreheads.

"Genius Attack Break!"

With the simultaneous eruption of immense power and energy, the two ferocious demons, who had just been incredibly vicious, were blasted into pieces by Gu Yu after colliding with each other on the spot.

Then, just as Ibuki was about to distance himself from him, Kouyu immediately activated the next Full Bottle ability.

"Want to run?"

【Rocket (Full Bottle of Rocket)】

After locking onto the Ibuki using the still-present Lock ability of the Full Bottle, Kouyu immediately conjured the Cosmos Builder, a device included with the Full Bottle, and launched the missiles from the device directly at the Ibuki.

Under the precise lock of the full bottle, Wei Chui Gui was unable to escape far before being blasted to the ground by Gu Yu's surprise attack.

Judging from the wisps of black smoke emanating from his body, it was clear that Wei Chui Gui would not be able to recover his fighting strength in the short term.

"Not bad, not bad. As a human being, you have done enough."

After finally escaping the camera's full-bottle power, Kabuki looked at the fragments at Kouyu's feet, then at Ibuki, who had been blasted to the ground by Kouyu not far away, and raised his hands to clap.

"Heh, the Demon Rider's recovery ability far surpasses that of other Riders. If this continues, Ibuki will probably be able to recover his fighting strength within a minute."

"But that's on the condition that... he really is a demon."

Just as Gu Yu had directly shattered the master and disciple Zhan Gui Hong Gui, he used his genius gauntlets to make contact with them and instantly analyzed their information.

The two possess the power of Slayer and Destroyer, as well as the skills honed through Slayer and Destroyer training. If Gu Yu hadn't used the genius gauntlets that analyze enemy information to come into contact with them, even he would have thought that the two were Slayer and Destroyer.

However, after analyzing the intelligence, Gu Yu finally understood that they were just puppets with power, not the two battle-hardened experts.

"There are eight of them in total, capable of creating puppets with demonic power... Heh, it seems that even the so-called 'Singing and Dancing Demon' is not your true form."

After noticing that Wei Chui Gui's body had completely collapsed, Gu Yu calmly revealed the true appearance of the enemy in front of him.

"Should I say this is our first meeting? A demonic monster that has survived since ancient times..."

"——Yama no Orochi."

After his identity was exposed, the domineering god who was fighting using the body of the Kabuki suddenly felt a chill.

"I never expected that even those fierce warriors couldn't figure out my identity at the very beginning of our meeting."

"I never expected that a mere brat under twenty years old could see through my true identity in less than five minutes of meeting me."

"It deserves praise, it deserves praise."

After uttering these words, the Yamata no Orochi, radiating intense killing intent, immediately swung its blade.

Only now did Gu Yu have the energy to observe the enemy's weaponry, and only then did she recognize the origin of the weapon in the enemy's hand.

"This weapon...!"

"Yes, this is one of the weapons that Hibiki used back in the Sengoku era. And I happened to acquire this weapon later on."

After revealing his weapon, the Warrior's Sword, Orochi chuckled and poured a great deal of power into it with both hands.

"Armor..."

"—Dress!"

Chapter 602. Arms Kabuki

Orochi, this monstrous leader, is, to be precise, one of the few bosses whose true form was never revealed in the TV series.

If Gu Yu hadn't read the SIC novels about Kamen Rider Hibiki and known the stories within them, he really wouldn't have been able to guess this guy's true identity from just a few dozen seconds of confrontation.

In the SIC Legends Gaiden, the demon Futakuchi-onna transforms into a Kabuki and battles the Seven Demons of the Sengoku period.

Then, the Yamata no Orochi, which split its body into eight, sent all its bodies to attack the seven demon warriors present.

Because one of Orochi's clones had already been killed by the demon, it could not create an additional body to gain an advantage through sheer numbers.

Hibiki seized the opportunity to unleash the Kusanagi Sword from that world, which is the same longsword that Kabuki Orochi is currently wielding, the Warrior's Sword. It evolved into Armored Hibiki Mode and led the group to destroy the bodies of six Orochi in one fell swoop.

Seeing that it could not defeat the group, the last giant serpent swallowed Futakuchi-onna, who had transformed into a Kabuki demon, as a sacrifice to regain its power before fleeing the battlefield.

Because of this incident, Hibiki and others from the Sengoku period chose to establish an organization called "Mōshi" to support the oni in their continued fight.

Judging from the fact that all the previous bosses were dead, Orochi might also be eliminated in the future.

However, considering that all those unlucky guys who were previously eliminated have been resurrected in this other world with full health...

The giant serpent has now regained its original eight heads and can now fight in multiple forms simultaneously.

"I see. In the battle against the demons, you recorded the battle data of the other seven demons, just as you recorded the battle data of the Kabuki demon."

"So now that you've split into eight, you also have eight bodies, so the 'ghosts' that my companions and I encountered also happened to be eight people."

"Yes, you guessed correctly. But what about now?"

After the [Warrior's Sword] in his hand evolved into the [Sonic Amplification Sword Armor Sound Blade], Orochi Kabuki was now dressed in armor made of Pan Shikigami, just like Hibiki.

"Armor... Kabuki."

"Yes, among the eight demons of the battle, the Kabuki is the most powerful. After unleashing the power of the Warrior's Sword, it has surpassed the Hibiki, which was the strongest at the time."

At this moment, Kabuki's armored body became even faster than before.

With a lightning-fast slash, Kabuki almost hit Kouyu's mask.

"I possess performance surpassing Hibiki's, as well as formidable combat experience. Now, not only is your body being corrupted by my power, but you also have to worry about those little brats."

He relentlessly slashed at Gu Yu's dancing ghost with the blade in his hand, his movements becoming increasingly ruthless.

"You fussy little brat, what makes you think you can fight me?"

"Just because of me..."

【Rose (Rose Vase)】

"I am not alone!"

After activating the Rose Bottle's power, Gu Yu used the ability to [transmit the transformant's burning passion to their companions, which can boost their fighting spirit] to transmit this power to everyone's bodies through the Smart Bottle's power.

"A direct assault. I've held off the enemy's strongest member, and their recovery ability is practically zero."

"If you can take them down, go for a quick attack by trading blows. If you can't, just stay put and wait for me and Fu Huateng to come to the rescue!"

"Yes!"

As she spoke these words, Gu Yu slightly raised her right hand and sprayed the calming scent of the roses from the vase directly onto Kabuki's face.

Even the most ruthless Kabuki, under the influence of the rose-scented bottle, became somewhat more hesitant in his actions.

"Are you... joking?"

After hearing Gu Yu's instructions to everyone, even though Orochi Kabuki's movements slowed down a bit, he still found Gu Yu's words ridiculous.

"You actually think that those little girls whose bodies I've corrupted... can unleash 100% of their Herrscher power to deal with those terrifying demons?"

"Stop dreaming, kid. Those ghosts are all battle-hardened demons. Their combat experience is enough to bridge the gap between them and the Herrschers."

"Your aggressive attack will only push them into a corner. They trust you and will never question your words. But they lack the strength to match your power..."

"It's so annoying how long-winded it is!"

【Obake (Ghost Bottle)】—Maintains transparency.

After her body became transparent, Gu Yu's figure vanished instantly from in front of the giant serpent Kabuki.

"Tch, what a boring little trick."

Hmph, idiot, this is a domain I created using the Herrscher core. I can easily sense you no matter where you are, since I have already corrupted you.

【Wolf (A Bottle Full of Wolves)】

After concealing his presence, Gu Yu immediately activated another crucial Full Bottle.

"Wolves in a Bottle" is one of the combination bottles that can be used in conjunction with "Smartphone in a Bottle." After activating "Wolves in a Bottle," the operator...

—By synchronizing their own consciousness with that of their partners, they can launch highly coordinated attacks.

Furthermore, during joint attacks, Gu Yu, connected to the consciousness of her companions, can also use the abilities of the Wolf Pack and the Smart Machine to see through the enemy's action patterns, grasp the movements of the surrounding enemies and partners without missing a single one, formulate group tactics to counterattack and eliminate them, and increase the success rate of the group's coordinated attacks.

While the giant snake was secretly preparing to launch a surprise attack on Gu Yu, Gu Yu transferred his mental energy to Lin and Wendy.

"This feeling is so strange..."

After sensing that her mind seemed to have connected to something, Wendy immediately thought of two possibilities.

First, she was being corrupted even more severely, which was a sign that the Herrscher of Corruption was about to completely erode her consciousness.

Second, this is Gu Yu secretly using his methods to prepare to assist Wendy.

However, if it were the first scenario, the three lackeys sent by the Herrscher of Corruption should not still be standing still.

After all, I have already shown my weakness. If it really is the Herrscher of Corruption who intends to completely corrupt me, these people will not remain inactive.

So... it really is Senior Gu Yu?

Alright, relax and let him take care of your body.

On the other side, Lin made the same judgment and, like Wendy, relaxed her mind and body.

In the eyes of the three puppet demons, Yujiki, Nishiki, and Koki, the enemy in front of them seemed to have lost consciousness and stood blankly on the ground.

If that's the case...

—The opportunity has arrived!
