Chapter 190: Blaize vs Meruem
Meeting the punch head-on, Blaize's face changed for a moment as powerful force traveled from the King's strike and pushed him back.
His figure skidded back a meter before stopping. Even before Blaize could stabilize his body, Meruem dashed forward and whipped with his powerful tail.
Seeing the future with his Observation Haki, Blaize calmly leaned back his head, evading the tail that whizzed past his face. At the same time, he attacked the latter by blasting a powerful aura from his right hand, taking the King by surprise.
At such a close distance, Meruem couldn't dodge the attack. The aura blast banged his stomach and sent him flying far away.
But, the strike did little to do damage. Unfazed by the attack, the latter madly charged forward, exploding with cent percent of his aura and face full of excitement.
'He's fast!' Blaize thought. The next moment, golden lightning sparkles covered his entire body that heightened his speed, rivaling the King.
'Bang!' 'Bang!' 'Bang!'
Flashes of afterimages clashed in mid-air, generating shockwaves and booming sounds.
The speed of Blaize and Meruem was beyond what the human eye could follow. In a matter of minutes, both of them exchanged thousands of moves.
If not for Blaize's Observation Haki, the King would have injured him multiple times.
Though the King has just been born, his reaction and fighting skills are on another level, as if he's practicing them for decades. Without a doubt, the chimera ants' long evolution has pinnacled in him.
He's a perfect Chimera Ant with immeasurable strength and innate talent.
The scary thing is, the King's skills were growing at an alarming rate. In no time, he got accustomed to Blaize's future prediction; his moves were getting unpredictable and erratic.
Blaize gets the feeling of being cornered. 'I have to stop falling into his rhythm.' But before he could do anything, he sensed King's next attack and crossed both his hands to block.
"Bang!"
The King's tail came out of nowhere, smashed his body, and sent him flying away.
The King didn't give him a chance a recover he rushed forth and bombarded him with aggressive attacks that dropped on all parts of his body.
Before Blaize could put up a fight, Meruem ended the barrage with a powerful kick to his face that knocked him back and crashland far away.
"Human, I'm just beginning to have fun, don't die too soon." Meruem grinned, revealing his sharp teeth.
Coughing a mouthful of blood, Blaize rose to his feet wincing slightly in pain. All the thrashing tore some of his muscles and broke some of his bones.
His life aura surpasses other Nen users of the HxH world, but it's not his forte. Furthermore, Meruem's Nen is far more boundless than his.
Wiping the trail of blood near his lips, Blaize silently triggered a drop of God's Blood. In the next second, all the injuries on his body healed at a rate visible to the naked eye.
The residual energy of God's blood elevated his physical strength. The rise in physical strength also directly enhanced his devil fruit powers.
'He's indeed a tough opponent to kill with formidable strength, high speed, endurance, and an endless supply of Nen. The King is no weaker than Yonko!' Blaize thought.
Meruem was stronger than he anticipated, with innate combat talent while his use of Nen is as fluid as one's breathing.
'Well...if he wasn't this strong, I would have been disappointed. I just hope he would force me to my limit.'
An overbearing momentum burst out of Blaize along with Bluish-white flames! The flames streamed out of him and flowed like a river, covering everything within a 1 km radius.
As for the King, he resisted the high intense flame of Blaize with his powerful Nen and remains unharmed.
"You had your fun, it's my turn. Don't die, Ant king." Blaize took a fighting stance while the sea of flames suddenly receded and flew back into his body.
The next moment, a dark bluish membrane shrouded his body like a layer of clothing!

As Blaize and King started their next round of battle, Netero engaged in a fierce fight with Pitou.
Though Netero's aura output is incomparable to that of the Royal Guard, he was able to fight on par with the latter with his Nen ability: 100-type Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Furthermore, Pitou exhausted her Nen and was injured slightly before the fight by Blaize's previous attack.
Pitou wanted to destroy the human before him and help the King, but the latter's ability didn't allow her to do as she wishes.
On the other hand, Morel, Knov, and Kite watched the battles from far away, keeping some distance. As for Shaiapouf, he was imprisoned by Morel's smoke jail.
Since the former is injured heavily and reduced in size, he won't be able to break the smoke with his current strength.
"Sigh! Both of them are monsters to be able to fight those things. If we fight them alone we won't even survive a few minutes!" Morel spoke.
"Just the Royal Guard's ominous Nen alone scares and makes me shudder." Knov shook his head.
"Thankfully, we destroyed the other Chimera ants and acted in time. If we had given them more time, it could have resulted in a severe problem." Kite expressed his thought while Morel and Knov agreed.
"I don't know whether that young man can deal with the King. The King is far stronger than anything I have heard! His aura is far more dangerous than the Royal Guards!" Morel spoke.
"Let's wait and see. Chairman has already planned for the worst outcome! So even if the King emerges as the victor, he can't escape!"
