CHAPTER 224 – DEFEAT

When the magic hit, it caused a huge smokescreen.

"Is this over?" - I asked myself as I looked at the crater.

But he couldn't be more wrong because a laugh was heard from the crater and suddenly, the other Kazuya came out, however, he was completely intact, with no injuries, not even his clothes had been scratched.

"I'm disappointed, I thought you'd know how to do more than just throw magic" - said the other Kazuya.

What Kazuya cast was not normal magic but one of his original magics whose destructive power would of damage to Sirchezs gravely, however, the other Kazuya didn't even get scratched.

"This is going to be hard" - I said as a drop of sweat poured down my forehead.

"Do you only know how to do that? Then let me show you what a real punch is" - said the other Kazuya with a smile.

Suddenly, the other Kazuya disappeared leaving only a residual image.

"Where did he go?!" - I asked in amazement.

"I'm here" - said a voice.

It was the other Kazuya who was positioned behind him.

"Prepare for the blow, this is going to hurt" - said the other Kazuya.

Suddenly, Kazuya received a powerful punch in the stomach that sent him crashing to the ground in the same crater that the other Kazuya had caused earlier.

Our Kazuya was in pain, the other Kazuya's punch had been so strong that he had even spit out a large amount of blood and the pain he had in his stomach was such that he could hardly stand up.

"Fuck!" - I said as I sat up.

The punch I had just received almost knocked me unconscious, I'm afraid I have no choice, I will have to use my maximum power or I will die fighting this guy.

"What's the matter, you could only take one hit? What a disappointment, I expected more from you" - said the other Kazuya with a smile.

"That's not all my power!" – I said.

"Then show me all your power, I will crush you anyway, no matter how much power you use!" – shouted the other Kazuya.

I nodded and simply turned the dial on the Omnitrix and transformed into a Devilukian.

"Is that all your power? I admit that in that way you are a little stronger, but it is not enough to beat me" - said the other Kazuya.

"How noisy, this has only just begun!" – I said.

Then I put my hand in my mouth and started blowing.

As he did so, Kazuya's body began to swell into a large ball, which was mostly covered in Haki.

"You...!" - exclaimed the other Kazuya, surprised.

"GEAR FORTH, BOUNCE MAN!" – I shouted.

Kazuya had used the Gear Forth.

"Interesting, you have the Gomu Gomu no mi, hahahaha, incredible, of the hundreds of Kazuya I killed, you are the first to have such an interesting power!" – said the other Kazuya excitedly.

He had killed hundreds of Kazuya and they almost always used to have the same powers, some magic and abilities, some of them even had powerful abilities, however, the other Kazuya defeated them all and absorbed their power, but this Kazuya was the first to have this power, a power that increased his own power explosively.

"Interesting, hit me with everything you have!" – said the other Kazuya.

"I'll do it!" – I said.

Then, I immediately used the Kaoiken and with astonishing speed headed towards the other Kazuya.

The other Kazuya was surprised at his counterpart's speed and couldn't react in time before a punch from Kazuya hit him, the blow was so strong that he was sent flying hundreds of meters while spitting out a large amount of blood.

It had been a big blow, a blow so strong that he couldn't believe it, it's the first Kazuya to cause him such damage, he was surprised because of the hundred Kazuya he killed and absorbed this was the most unique because its strength didn't correspond to his estimates, however...

The other Kazuya seemed to have taken tremendous damage as he had taken flight several hundred meters away while spitting blood from his mouth, however, he eventually pulled himself together in mid-air.

"I won't let you attack, Gomu Gomu no... KING KONG GUN!" – I shouted.

A large number of punches were directed at a high speed towards the other Kazuya who had just pulled himself together and was unable to counterattack, so all of Kazuya's punches hit him squarely impacting him into the ground.

"Kaioken x3!" – I shouted.

I'm not going to hold back my power, I'll send him to hell in one fell swoop.

Kazuya's strength increased considerably causing the other Kazuya to feel enormous pain as he was hit by hundreds of blows at the same time, but in the end, our Kazuya exhausted all his energies and had no choice but to revert back to his human form.

"I think it's over" - I said as I returned to the ground.

My energy was almost exhausted and I felt a huge pain in my muscles, these are the consequences of having used the Gear Forth with the Kaioken, but it has been worth it because I have defeated him r so I thought...

"Hahahaha, it's not bad, in fact, I must admit that you are amazing!" – laughed the other Kazuya as he got up from the ground.

But unlike before, this time he did have torn clothes and numerous wounds were on his body while he was bleeding quite a bit, apparently, this time he had indeed suffered a lot of damage, but not enough to defeat him.

"You're a fucking monster" - I said weakly.

I can't believe he survived that attack, not even Sirchezs could have withstood it, how strong was he?

"Don't get depressed, I must admit that you are the Kazuya who has given me the most problems, the strongest I have ever faced and the only one to cause me so many injuries, absorbing you will increase my strength considerably, be proud of that" – said the other Kazuya with a smile.

"I don't understand, why are you doing this?" – I asked.

"To take revenge on those who deserve it, but for that, I need the power to do it" - replied the other Kazuya.

To take revenge on whom?

"Enough talk, you've been a good opponent, but that's goodbye, bye bye, Kazuya" - said the other Kazuya.

I got into a fighting pose to try and avoid the blow, however, I couldn't see when he moved and when I saw him again he was in front of me.

"Good...bye" - said the other Kazuya.

And without waiting a second, he hit Kazuya with a blow so hard that it pierced his chest, right where his heart was, crushing him completely and causing Nemesis to shoot out of his body.

"Now that he is dead, I will begin the ritual before his soul dissipates" - said the other Kazuya.

But Nemesis watched in horror as her husband lay in the pool of his own blood and with a hole in his chest.

"Kazuya!" - cried Nemesis.

The scream was so loud that everyone heard it and turned their heads to see this horrible scene happening before their eyes.

All but the bad guys were horrified by that scene, but none of our heroes were much better, the villains were stronger than I thought and almost at the limit of their strength, the side of the good guys was going to lose, it was a matter of time.

"Son of a bitch, I'm going to kill you!" - exclaimed Nemesis.

She then headed towards the other Kazuya with her top speed, however, she was sent to fly right where her husband's body was.

The blow was so strong that he could only crawl to Kazuya's body while for the first time in his life, he shed tears of pain.

"I'm sorry, but it's necessary for my revenge" - said the other Kazuya.

He felt no pity for Nemesis' enormous sadness.

Nemesis didn't know what to do, Kazuya had just died, he no longer had a heart in his chest and she was desperate, what should he say to the girls, what would be his reaction? She didn't know.

Everyone was devastated at Kazuya's death, even Reina was sad, however, she noticed something special, surprisingly her slave necklace had not come off her body!

"Nemesis, my slave necklace has not fallen off!" - cried Reina.

"It's impossible!" - said the other Kazuya.

Nemesis was also surprised, because when the master died, the slave would be freed immediately, but Reina was not freed, which meant that Kazuya was still alive.

"It's completely impossible, I used my ability to nullify all of his regeneration abilities, it's impossible for him to be alive!" – the other Kazuya exclaimed.

That's right, that's this Kazuya's special ability, an ability that helped him kill most of Kazuya, his special ability, "Anti-Abilities" nullified any enemy abilities.

But just as he was about to check on Kazuya, a white glow surrounded Kazuya's body and lifted him into the air causing everyone present to be shocked, but that wasn't all, but in the next instant, Kazuya began to speak, but not in his normal voice, but in a robotic voice.

"USER KAZUYA MINAMOTO HAS DIED, THE HIDDEN SKILL "RECONSTRUCTION" HAS BEEN ACTIVATED, THE HIDDEN SKILL "DUPLICATE" HAS BEEN ACTIVATED, THE HIDDEN SKILL "BACKUP" HAS BEEN ACTIVATED, THE HIDDEN SKILL "INSTANT REGENERATION" HAS BEEN ACTIVATED, PROCEEDING TO THE RESTORATION OF THE USER'S BODY" – said the robotic voice.
