"This move... it's useless against me."
Zane said calmly, summoning a giant tengu in an instant. The massive creature wrapped around him and soared skyward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
All the energy waves struck the tengu's skeletal frame, reflecting a blinding white light.
Then, as if controlled by Zane, the light waves circled the tengu's outer shell before surging into Zane's body at the heart of the tengu.
Immediately, they radiated from within Zane, circulating over the tengu's form.
It was like a massive, dazzling, human-shaped beacon of light.
"I didn't expect this move could combine..."
Zane murmured from his position suspended at the tengu's hollow heart, then suddenly shouted:
"[Glint-Glint - Tengu's Solar Strike]!"
In an instant, the tengu conjured solid, brilliant arrows of light in rows, encircling its massive form.
With his hands poised as if drawing a bow, Zane aimed at the armored figures surrounding him.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom, boom, boom!!!
A thousand arrows fired simultaneously, piercing through with incredible speed.
The armored figures had no way to escape, each pierced by the swiftly advancing light arrows.
With his [Mangekyo Sharingan], Zane captured the image of every orange-red armored figure vanishing from his sight.
A look of understanding crossed his face.
"Just as I thought..."
In mere moments, every orange-red armored figure had been pierced by the light arrows, leaving only a single armored figure holding a glowing sphere in his palm, standing alone in place.
The expression on his face showed no hint of loss.
With each armored figure's disappearance, a surge of energy flowed into the floating sphere.
As it accumulated, the sphere slowly began to reveal a silver weapon.
"After all that fighting, you still have so much energy left."
"Even with a high-level energy conversion, achieving this would be impossible without the infinite capacity of [Omnipotence]."
As he finished speaking, the glowing sphere in his palm transformed into a silver metallic device with a handle.
"If it's [Omnipotence], that would explain how you've advanced to such high dimensions so quickly."
"Unlike us deities, whose dimensional level was predetermined from birth with a natural limit,"
"Beings with [Omnipotence] can break through dimensional barriers as long as they continuously replenish energy."
"That's something I both envy and, to some extent, fear."
"But fortunately, my ultimate weapon is now fully formed. Let it make its debut here..."
"To the being with the power to destroy everything, I grant you the name... [Ultimate Eraser]!"
"The [Ultimate Eraser]... I spent a hundred thousand years slowly crafting it to completion."
"I cut fragments from ten extinguished dimensional universes to form the silver shell of the [Ultimate Eraser]."
"Then, I searched across countless newly born dimensional universes to find the most suitable one—more precisely, a micro-universe that had just condensed into a [Singularity]."
"I placed it inside the [Ultimate Eraser] as the energy core."
"In theory, this small silver device can destroy anything—even the creators of this universe."
"Not only that, but it can also annihilate timelines, erasing anything within dimensions one through ten."
"It can even obliterate space itself within those dimensions."
"Of course, it's still limited by the energy capacity of its wielder, and after all, I'm not [Omnipotent]."
The orange-armored figure held the silver [Ultimate Eraser], its silver glow aimed squarely at Zane.
"Absolute Darkness Field!"
Swoosh!
The orange-armored figure raised the [Ultimate Eraser], and boundless beams of light gathered from all directions, frantically pouring into the silver device.
In an instant, what little light had remained in the area vanished, leaving it as dark as pitch, as if even the faintest glimmers had been swallowed.
The endless darkness wrapped around Zane, making him feel as though the entire universe had fallen into the same night.
A voice softly echoed through the silence:
"[Disintegration Beam]!"
Swoosh!
A thick beam of light suddenly shot forth.
In the darkness, it resembled a furious dragon, reaching Zane in the blink of an eye.
Zane's eyes flashed red. He drew his black scythe and slashed at the beam's weak point.
The beam burst apart like a balloon, releasing swallowed light that dimly restored the surroundings.
Yet Zane noticed that the Reaper's scythe's blade had lost a small fragment upon contact with the beam.
"Does this destroy molecular structure?"
"Luckily, I executed a swift, clean strike."
Spotting the issue, Zane promptly returned the scythe to the [King's Treasury] for automatic repair.
Then, he murmured while observing the orange-armored figure before him:
"I'll need to find a way to deal with him..."
"Oh? A different set of eyes now? How many eye forms do you possess?"
The orange-armored figure noted the change in Zane's eyes—from a rotating triangle to a solid red glow—and spoke slowly:
"Those eyes... they actually make me feel a sense of danger."
"It's as if every hidden part of me is laid bare, vulnerable to a fatal strike at any moment."
"No wonder you could kill so many of my kin so effortlessly..."
"But your luck ends here, against me!"
"Perish, earthling!"
"Hyper Pulse!"
Boom!
An orange beam, as wide as Zane was tall, shot from the orange-armored figure's silver [Ultimate Eraser] and hurtled toward Zane with massive force.
"[Glint-Glint Fruit - Light Wave]."
Zane's red-glowing eyes flickered, and with a casual flick, a golden beam of light struck the center of the orange beam.
The beam instantly shattered, scattering into a high-speed vortex of debris spinning toward Zane's position.
Zane shifted to his elemental form to evade, and in the blink of an eye, his golden form vanished.
"Hmm? What ability is this?"
"Did he hide himself within seven-dimensional space?"
The orange-armored figure gripped the [Ultimate Eraser] tightly.
Seeing Zane vanish, an unsettling feeling crept into his heart.
"In that case, I'll just destroy the entire seven-dimensional space!"
