Chapter 532 Acceleration, Sword Dance? The Final Foreshadowing!
"Buzz!"
Almost simultaneously, the dozen or so masked ninjas flying around the Night Demon Spirit burst forth with an extremely blinding white light.
The light instantly filled the entire venue, so intense that many spectators in the front rows subconsciously squinted.
The Night Demon, bearing the brunt of the attack, was completely exposed to the dazzling light.
"Dus!!"
The Night Demon let out a painful groan.
Caught off guard, its single eye was stung painfully by the bright light, and its vision was instantly plunged into a white blur, making it impossible to see anything around it, let alone lock onto its target.
It instinctively raised an arm, trying to block out the unbearable light, and the gravity it was about to exert was naturally forced to stop.
Did they even prepare this move specifically?
Xiao Zhi was somewhat surprised.
It seems that Shinji has indeed researched himself to the extreme.
This feeling is truly wonderful.
Despite being in the midst of a fierce battle, Ash suddenly felt a little dazed.
When he participated in the Lily of the Valley Conference in the past, he was the one who took Shinji as his goal and desperately tried to catch up, studying his Pokémon and tactics, and thinking about how to break through his defenses.
But now their positions have been reversed.
Now it's Shinji who's constantly studying him.
Even though Shinji had already taken control of the situation on the field, Ash, immersed in the competition and pursuit between his rivals, still couldn't suppress the upward curve of his lips.
He was able to return and fight Shinji again.
That's great.
......
It's not over yet!
Although both were completely immersed in the battle, Shinji's performance at this moment was quite different from Ash's.
He knew how strong Ash was. Even though he had thoroughly studied all of Ash's videos and Pokémon before the battle and had developed a strategy to counter Ash, even the slightest mistake could render all his efforts futile.
It was a huge mistake that Raven Leader failed to defeat Night Demon.
This crucial battle, which will determine the outcome of the war, cannot be taken lightly.
Taking advantage of the perfect moment when Night Demon's vision was temporarily deprived by the flash, Shinji issued his next command without hesitation, his tone cold and decisive: "Continue! Use Sword Dance!"
"Buzz!"
Hidden among the many clones, the real Iron-Faced Ninja immediately began to act.
It began to spin rapidly as its clones blocked its path, its two scythe-like forelimbs drawing mysterious trajectories in the air, while several sharp energy swords seemed to appear out of thin air and dance around it.
Sword dance?
Acceleration characteristics.
In addition, there's the boost from sword dance.
......
A vague sense of unease arose in Xiao Zhi's heart.
"Use taunt towards the 7 o'clock direction behind you!"
The Night Demon's vision is now obstructed, and the Iron-Faced Ninja is manipulating shadow clones to block its line of sight from the Night Demon.
The Night Demon's provocation was impossible to aim precisely at the moment, and it could only rely on luck, hoping that the provocation would bypass the clone and happen to hit the Iron-Faced Ninja's true form, preventing it from continuing to strengthen.
"Dus!"
Despite the discomfort in his eyes, the Night Demon, guided by Ash's instructions and his own vague senses, stretched out his finger in a general direction, and an invisible wave spread out.
However, this time luck was not on Ash's side.
The provocative wave passed through several shadow clones and eventually dissipated into the air, failing to hit the true form of the Iron-Faced Ninja hidden among them.
Swish-!
The sword dance was successfully completed, and the Iron-Faced Ninja's attack power was greatly increased.
And that's not even the worst of it.
Ash could sense that the energy of the Trick Space, which enveloped the entire area, was becoming unstable at a visible rate.
Fine cracks, like shattered glass, even began to appear at the edges.
The time for the magic space is approaching.
Sure enough, the next second!
Snap—Bang!
A crisp cracking sound rang out, and the pale pink energy barrier that had covered the entire area collapsed like a shattered mirror, turning into specks of light and dissipating into the air.
The magic space has ended.
As the magic space disappeared, the speed rules on the field instantly returned to normal.
This moment was like adding insult to injury for the Night Demon.
The Night Demon, which is already slow-moving, undoubtedly became a sitting duck when facing the Iron-Faced Ninja, who has the ability to accelerate.
call out--!
It was as if they were showing off their speed.
Almost the instant the magic space disappeared, the Iron-Faced Ninja's speed was fully revealed.
Its figure moved so fast that it was only a pale yellow afterimage, rapidly moving around the Night Demon, whose movements had become incredibly sluggish. The strong wind it generated even stirred the air around the Night Demon's body.
The shadow clones that were originally flying around the Night Demon Spirit have become even more difficult to catch now that their speed has been restored.
Everything is going in a bad direction.
It must be restricted as soon as possible.
"Nightmare, use Will-O-Wisp!" Ash quickly adjusted his tactics.
Since we couldn't stop the opponent from strengthening, we should try to put the Iron-Faced Ninja in a burned state to halve his current attack power. This would greatly reduce the threat posed by the Sword Dance.
"Dus!"
A ghostly blue flame gathered in front of the Night Demon as it strained to sense the rapidly moving air currents around it, trying to pinpoint the Iron-Faced Ninja's location.
call--!
Seemingly sensing the other's location, a ball of eerie blue ghost fire, radiating an ominous aura, quickly condensed and flew straight towards one of the clones.
However, Shinji did not show any panic when faced with Ash's counterattack.
Just as the will-o'-the-wisp was about to approach a rapidly moving afterimage, Shinji's voice rang out again, still as calm and undisturbed as ever: "Protect!"
hum!
A pale green circular energy barrier instantly unfolded in front of the afterimage, precisely blocking the path of the will-o'-the-wisp.
The will-o'-the-wisp crashed into the guarded barrier, but failed to have any effect on the Iron-Faced Ninja.
Another round has passed by without us even realizing it.
Shinji intently analyzed the situation on the field.
The Iron-Faced Ninja's special ability has been activated multiple times, and it's estimated that it won't take more than two rounds for him to reach his maximum speed and distance.
Should we wait for another round?
Shinji's gaze swept between the rapidly moving masked ninja and the weakened Night Demon.
He thought for a few seconds.
Although waiting another turn would make Ninjazuka faster, things could change in the meantime, and Ash's ability to react should not be underestimated. It would be bad if he got hit by Dusknoir's Taunt or another move during this time.
Insurance should still be the primary focus.
Shinji made a firm decision.
"Iron-Faced Ninja!" His voice echoed clearly throughout the arena, "Use the baton!"
