Kaipo stood still for a moment, holding the two newly acquired Jewels in his hands. A smile slowly spread across his face as he began absorbing their energy. The power surged through him, each Jewel adding to his strength in ways that were not yet fully revealed. The battlefield around him seemed to hum with the raw energy being unleashed.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxPs6FWmyL
Novachro’s fury was palpable as he watched Kaipo. In a blink, Novachro appeared directly in front of Kaipo, his speed so incredible that it seemed as though he had teleported—he was just that fast. With a flash of rage, Novachro swung his Shoku no Ken at Kaipo, intending to cleave him in two.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDsIg3hURd
But Kaipo was gone.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S7RWLVysq
The narrator’s voice cut in, revealing the truth behind Kaipo's sudden disappearance: he had used Jigen no Mon, an ability of the Vortex Jewel, one of the two Jewels he had just absorbed. The second Jewel’s power remained a mystery for the moment, but the first Jewel had already made Kaipo a master of dimensional and spatial manipulation.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUTSi4orfG
Kaipo reappeared some distance away, a confident grin on his face. Something had sparked inside him, reawakening a fraction of his Essence Manifest power. He channeled this new energy, calling forth the full might of the Vortex Jewel, and activated his new Essence Manifest: Vortex Jewel.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOd3PdIRsr
The Vortex Jewel was the pinnacle of dimensional and spatial manipulation, granting Kaipo absolute control over the fabric of reality itself. The jewel manifested as a radiant, multifaceted gem that hovered near him, surrounded by a swirling vortex of cosmic energy. Kaipo’s eyes glowed with a deep, iridescent light, and his form flickered between different planes of existence. Ethereal patterns and symbols of ancient knowledge swirled around him, symbolizing his newfound command over space, time, and the void.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXEYJtWm84
Kaipo began laughing, his voice echoing eerily as he spammed Jigen no Mon, teleporting all around the battlefield in a blur of motion. Novachro struggled to keep up, his eyes darting wildly as he tried to predict Kaipo's next move. But Kaipo was too fast, too unpredictable.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA90IunhZYM
Suddenly, Kaipo appeared directly in front of Novachro, his fist enveloped in the dark energy of Kyomu Sōsa. Though Kyomu Sōsa was not typically meant to be used in this way, Kaipo had wrapped the void energy around his fist, intending to land a devastating punch. With Kyomu Sōsa, Kaipo could control the void itself, creating and shaping pockets of nothingness that could nullify energy, matter, and magic, effectively erasing them from existence.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd29jRm1Wb
Just as Kaipo was about to strike, Orion intervened, appearing in a flash of light between Kaipo and Novachro. Orion’s body was clad in Tentai no Yoroi, a brilliant armor made of pure starlight that provided unmatched protection and enhanced his strength. The Celestial Armor absorbed Kaipo's void-powered punch, its radiant light shimmering as it deflected the attack.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8Z8NRG75f
Mike, who had been observing the battle from a distance with Zara and Drew, dropped down beside them. "My illusion must have worn off," Mike muttered, then quickly corrected himself. "No, that can’t be—only I know how long it’s supposed to last. Somehow, Orion must have broken free."234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55x8sQVBkr
But Kaipo wasn’t deterred. He quickly activated Enerugī Kyūshū, the energy absorption ability of the Vortex Jewel, and began draining the energy from Orion’s Celestial Armor. The starlight that once surrounded Orion dimmed as Kaipo absorbed it into the Vortex Jewel, the gem glowing brighter as it accumulated power.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLQ5JfG4E4
Realizing his vulnerability, Orion vanished from the battlefield, teleporting back to the remaining Jewels to protect them. But when he arrived, he discovered that two more Jewels were missing. In a flash, Levi appeared beside Kaipo, handing him the two additional Jewels before disappearing once more to continue his battle with Orion.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCtFMWOOEa
Kaipo began absorbing the new Jewels, their power surging through him as he grew even stronger. But before he could fully integrate their abilities, Novachro struck again, his Shoku no Ken slicing through the air toward Kaipo with lethal intent. Levi, however, was quick to intercept, blocking the attack with his Blade of Eternity.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfoBFrib73
"Go," Levi ordered Kaipo. "Get the rest of the Jewels. We'll hold off Novachro."234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSgmRgJgTu
Kaipo nodded and vanished using Jigen no Mon, reappearing in front of Orion, who was now desperate to protect the remaining Jewels.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgGJ6Asac9
Kaipo walked slowly toward Orion, five of the nine Jewels in his possession. "This isn’t the fight you want," Kaipo warned, his voice steady and calm.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQ2sYYxreh
Orion’s eyes narrowed. "I’m in no way, shape, or form inferior to you," he retorted.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjMhZZp93E
With a sweeping motion, Orion summoned Hoshi no Rakka, a barrage of meteors and shooting stars rained down upon Kaipo, each impact releasing bursts of cosmic energy. The ground shook as the celestial assault intensified, but Kaipo dodged effortlessly using Jigen no Mon, teleporting out of harm’s way.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTM1Jw0fkU
Meanwhile, back on the battlefield, Novachro had turned his attention to Zara, Drew, Lyn, and Mike. With a single wave of his hand, he uttered "Off," and the energy within Zara, Drew, Lyn, and Mike vanished. They collapsed to the ground, their presence and life force seemingly extinguished.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyK5nm8TfQ
Levi, unaffected by the attack, felt a cold rage build within him. "What did you do to them?" he demanded, his voice trembling with anger.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah14wuqBHX
Novachro’s expression remained cold and detached. "Their energy has been removed from their bodies with Kyomu no Issen. They are beyond saving. This has gone too far—I must end this now."234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM0T4Q3I6K
In a flash of fury, Levi appeared before Novachro, his eyes blazing with anger. He swung his Blade of Eternity with the force of Tentai no Shūsoku, slicing off one of Novachro’s arms. The Celestial Convergence surrounded Levi, stars and galaxies converging around his blade, making the attack unstoppable.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMPgLZPUKL
But Novachro’s arm regenerated almost instantly, his body healing as he ascended into the air. "Owarinaki Zetsubō," he declared, summoning all his dark energy to unleash a massive, all-encompassing attack. The void of despair began to expand, erasing everything in its path.
Before Novachro could release the full force of the attack, Levi charged up Junsei no Ken. The area around him began to melt, all elements, forms of life, and reality itself disintegrating under the quasar’s intense heat. The two ultimate attacks hurtled toward each other, their destructive power poised to clash in a catastrophic explosion.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZUhtjl1Oa
But just before the attacks could collide, Kaipo appeared between them, using Kyomu Sōsa to nullify both attacks. The void manipulation consumed the quasar beam and the void of despair, leaving nothing but emptiness in their wake.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHujQD2zqvc
Kaipo turned to Levi. "We can’t let him use that attack again. It’s the strongest in the entire universe."234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0SDkIiqLC
Levi nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. Kaipo disappeared once more, reappearing in front of Orion. The final confrontation was drawing near, and the battle for the Jewels—and the fate of the universe—hung in the balance.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZFXZz9f3c
The chapter ends, leaving the battlefield tense and charged, with the final, decisive moments yet to come.234Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fBsXNhI6l
