Chapter 1317 Pika Ta! Author's Note: Unedited Chapter -------------- Meanwhile, up ahead, a massive looming shadow with pink glowing eyes materialised out of thin air. Gustav raised his arm and was in the process of throwing another punch when the looming massive shadowy figure coupled its fists together and swung downwards with intensity. Boom! A cloud of dust spread across this area of the space battlefield as Gustav transformed arm immediately reverted to its original look while he crashed onto the ground. Ostril saw this as an opportunity to attack and sped in Gustav's direction. [Lightning Blitz Has Been Activated] Gustav turned into a streak of lightning but the moment he did, the pinkish glowing eyes Encour Clapsed its hands together. Thrrriihhhhh~ "Absolute Cancel..." Captain Ostril muttered while a pinkish wave spread across the entire vicinity. Thrraaazzzhhh~ To their utmost disbelief, Gustav's lightning figure blitz into the distance, disappearing from sight. -"What the hell?" -"Captain Ostril Absolute Cancel didn't work?" The Dracons in the vicinity were astounded after witnessing this scene. Captain Ostril cancelling abilities had worked on Gustav earlier but one she activated on a large scale didn't? It did not make any sense to them. "After them!" Captain Ostril yelled with a look of anguish after noticing that every single one of them were gone. Elevora and Sheila whom she was about sending off the platform especially made her rage since it now looked like wasted effort. They had spent the last hour battling just two earth representatives. No matter how she shameless she was, this still looked bad on them. Sheila and Elevora had given them a run for their money and even managed to take out up to fifty of them over the last hour. Now that it was finally time for them to achieve victory, Gustav and Angy came and snatched them away. Captain Ostril was not going to let this be. "What are you waiting for fools!? Move!" She yelled while charging in the direction Gustav had just vanished in. -"What is wronv with her tsk?" -"Does she think she is the boss of us?" -"I am getting tired of her controlling attitude," The participants from other planets had began complaining as they headed in the required direction but all of a sudden something unexpected happened. Thiikkiihh~ Thiikkiihh~ Thiikkiihh~ Thiikkiihh~ Thiikkiihh~ Thiikkiihh~ Massive walls of icicle like stones protruded out of the ground up ahead. It went so high and wide that it divided the entire battlefield in half, denying the others behind access to the middle of the battlefield. "Isn't that..." "Captain Crimson's doing," They paused after recognising this to be similar to the barricade that was formed around the medallion in the last challenge. In the next moment another occurence left them.with confusion... Zing~ A boulder sized orb had suddenly appeared behind them. It was filled with dark reddish destructive energy and purplish lightning arrcs swimming arounf it. Upon its appearance, everyone went silent in reverence and fear. The vibrance it emitted began to stir winds, causing space to tremble and twist. "What the hell is that!?" Someone finally broke the silence. "Nothing we can defend agai..." Before the other participant could finish their sentence a loud finger snapping sound rang out across the battlefield. And that was all it took... BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM! A reddish with a mixture of dark purplish wave of destruction blasted across the battlefield, instantly obliterating everything in sight. The spectators jaws dropped as they witnessed the spectacular sight of the reddish wave of destruction spreading across space and even rolling towards their direction. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚 Thiiingghhh~ Thiiingghhh~ Thiiingghhh~ Thiiingghhh~ Barriers appeared all over the spectators area as the tongues of reddish waves rolled over. Purplish lightning bolts toiled across the place along with them. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Cracks soon began to appear on the barriers surrounding the spectators area as the reddish waves slammed against them furiously in a bid to vaporise everything in its path. "Keep enhancing the barriers!" Handler One instructed. "But they already have up to fifteen layers," Handler Three said. "Do you not see the destructiveness of this attack? Do it!" Handler One yelled. Handler Three nodded and went to join the other Handlers who were currently infusing their energy into the barriers and adding extra layers. They began groaning as they realised the barriers were getting destroyed very quickly and eleven layers were gone almost instantly. "We have to redirect the energy!" Handler Three yelled. The others around nodded in understanding while they spread their hands forward to touch the barriers. Shadowy arrows began appearing all over the reddish and dark purplish waves of destruction. The Handler joined their strength and redirected the waves away from their location in space. The blast soon appeared in a different spot in space and obliterating everything around it, causing the death of a star. -"That was terrifying," -"To think an IYSOP participant is capable of such destruction," -"Who did it?" The spectators were left in awe as they peered forward and noticed that half of the space battlefield was gone. The island sized floating battlefield had been completely reduced to half its size and now it was only as big as four football stadiums. The battlefield had been artificially created and induced with the best materials for construction so as to make it extremely sturdy. It was created to withstand powerful attacks so destroying a huge chunk of them was supposed to be impossible. The crumbling that happened every one hour was triggered from within since they had put charges that would make it disengage from the inside out while in the process of creating it. This was because it wouldn't be possible to do it from outside due to how extremely sturdy the foundation of the battlefield was.... Yet... What they were staring at before them was something they never saw coming. Zing~ Zing~ Zing~ Zinh~ Zing~ Zing~ Zing~ Zing~ Fortunately all of the participants that had been in the eye of the blast got teleported to the spectators area safely. They also couldn't believe their eyes but this meant they were practically disqualified already. Some of them were glad as they'd rather get disqualified than obliterated. I'm just one go three hundred and twenty seven participants were disqualified. A couple of Dracons found themselves in the spectators areas and looked around with awe. "Where is the captain?" One of them questioned. ... "Looks like you managed to make it," Gustav voiced as he stood before a slightly scalded figure crawling on all fours. "Absolute C..." Before the figure could complete her sentence a kick to the face sent her spiralling across the air. Bang! Fwwhiii~ "That is to be expected when I drained the orb of fifty percent of its power," Gustav voiced after Ostril crashed into a rock up ahead. "The real battle begins now," He chuckled lightly while.stepping forward. The walls Gustav had erected before he activated the planet destroying orb's blast had been completely obliterated. Despite the fact that Gustav made this particular orb weaker than its original power, it would have still erased the entire battlefield if not for the modicum of control he had over them. He had managed to stop the waves from destroying this particular part, leaving the rest of the participants on this side unscathed. Some of the Dracons had managed to make it over the wall before the charge spread across the place but every other participant from the groups they gathered were all gone. Gustav had managed to get every single one of them disqualified. Currently only twenty four out of the original fifty planets were left on the battlefield. A lot of them were clueless as to who was responsible for what had just happened but Ostril and the other earth participants knew well who the culprit was. ######## In the Upside Down facility, Vikrush Insa suddenly opened his eyes widely and sat up before yelling. "Pika Ta!" "Pika Ta!" "Pika Ta!" The researchers around him struggled to hold him in place as their faces were laced with confusion. "What in the world is he saying now!?" One of them yelled. "I don't know," Another one groaned while trying to restrain him. Vikrush whose eyes remained widened reached out to grab one of the researchers before pulling him closer. "It is time!" Vikrush yelled in English. "Time for what?" The researcher voiced with a fearful look. Vikrush didn't answer... instead he looked up. "Let us sedate him now!" An earth researcher yelled. But in the next moment, the environment dimmed. A sudden chill spread across the vicinity as the researchers found their figures rooted in place due to deep fear. "What is... that...?" One of them questioned as his fingers shook. Thrrriihhhh~ Thrrrriihhh~ The whole facility began to tremble greatly but this wasn't just happening here, it was happening on every single disk of Planet Ozious. A strange dim had suddenly permeated the entire planet, turning day into nighttime as every single living being dwelling on the face of Planet Ozious gazed into the skies with looks of fear and disbelief. "WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT!?"
