Joker's Reversal had completely undone the catastrophic damage from the clash between Singularity and Anti-Magic Singularity. The landscape, once shattered and broken, was restored to its original state as if nothing had happened. Joker and Kaipo stood face to face once more, the tension between them palpable.23Please respect copyright.PENANAskZs3Dm6fM
Joker's body began to glow with a deep purple light. He smirked and said, "Adapt."23Please respect copyright.PENANAVtIV8g5wBH
Kaipo's eyes narrowed as he watched Joker. "Adapt" was an ability that allowed Joker to adjust to any concept, power, or ability over time. The more Joker encountered that power, the faster he adapted to it. Now, Joker had fully adapted to Kaipo's Tenth Jewel, rendering any attack from it useless.23Please respect copyright.PENANAGFR76cigyt
Joker laughed menacingly. "Your tricks won't work on me anymore. I've adapted to your Tenth Jewel. Your power is now meaningless against me."23Please respect copyright.PENANA23qQDllyl2
Kaipo's frustration grew. It seemed as if Joker was always one step ahead, his Corrupt Heart abilities giving him an edge that felt almost unfair. But Kaipo wasn't finished yet.23Please respect copyright.PENANAt6IEgQMqB5
"Now!" Kaipo shouted.
In response, the Land of Spade army arrived once more, led by Kanju. The soldiers, ready to aid Kaipo in the battle, formed ranks, prepared for a final assault. Joker laughed, thinking Kaipo was calling for help out of desperation. But then he noticed Kaipo kneeling and praying.23Please respect copyright.PENANAyrh3qlcDhe
"What are you doing?" Joker sneered. "Praying won't save you."23Please respect copyright.PENANAHrVvl3txft
Kaipo's voice was steady as he prayed. "Forgive me for what I'm about to do, for it is an evil greater than anyone could commit."23Please respect copyright.PENANAVsNz0i5A3m
The Land of Spade army, believing they were back to assist Kaipo as part of the plan, stood ready. But Kaipo had something else in mind. He clapped his hands together and said, "Essence Manifest: Give."23Please respect copyright.PENANAfjNMfn56xA
In an instant, all the members of the Land of Spade army received a unique Essence Manifest based on their own abilities and powers. The soldiers marveled at their newfound strengths, ready to turn the tide of battle.23Please respect copyright.PENANA7dpc6E8UAR
But Kaipo's voice cut through the air again. "Take."23Please respect copyright.PENANAxpxJo6CewY
With a single word, Kaipo stripped the entire army of their Essence Manifests, absorbing over a thousand unique and powerful abilities into himself. The soldiers, left without their life force, collapsed lifelessly to the ground.23Please respect copyright.PENANAHSHPjCjdc3
Kaipo's personal Essence Manifest, ChronoGenesis Nexus, activated. He unleashed its Specialty Technique, "Eclipse Pulse," a massive pulse of energy that alternated between healing life force and nullifying anti-magic. This pulse restored Kaipo while simultaneously stripping the army of their magical abilities and enhancements.23Please respect copyright.PENANAnwYtYeSjUg
The energy and life force of the Land of Spade army were drained and absorbed into Kaipo, leaving the entire army lifeless. Kaipo's body glowed with a menacing red aura, his power exponentially increased by the essence he had taken.23Please respect copyright.PENANAiiGFM0Kbqh
Kaipo began to laugh, a sound filled with dark triumph. "You thought you could defeat me, Joker? You have no idea what true power is."23Please respect copyright.PENANAw0EiIwHclc
Joker's smile faltered for the first time, a hint of uncertainty in his eyes as he faced the new, overwhelmingly powerful Kaipo.23Please respect copyright.PENANAD2qg3RwpMS
The chapter ended there, leaving the future uncertain and the scale of the battle more devastating than ever before.23Please respect copyright.PENANA9TXuFgfJfx
