Chapter 400 - Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [170]
400. Country of Sakura, Cherin and the Seven Holy Swords [170]
Ability of the soul dress, 100 Million Year Sakura ― “Perfect Regeneration”.
This is to give the enormous life energy of the 100 Million Year Sakura to the designated target and completely regenerate the wounds of that person.
Bacchus used this power to regenerate Ria’s heart, erase the deadly poison that eroded Rose and the other girls’ bodies, and healed his own injuries just now.
It is thanks to this power that he, who suffers from an incurable disease, is able to live life as a normal person.
The only drawback is that it consumes tremendous spiritual power.
The power to restore even a shredded heart in a matter of a few seconds has already gone beyond the limit of “recovery” and stepped into the realm of “regeneration”, and was once feared as an “invincible soul dress”.
Now that Bacchus has unleashed the 100 Million Year Sakura, until his spiritual power is completely exhausted, he will not die in battle.
「NUOOOOOOOOO!」
Bacchus launched a fierce onslaught.
「You monster, your era ended long ago! Accept it like a true man and die already!」
「You sure can move with such a tattered body!」
Von and Deal responded head-on to Bacchus’ onslaught.
(Not yet… I can’t collapse until the kids fly away from here…)
Bacchus bit his lips and forcibly kept a strong reign on his fading consciousness.
Under the unfavourable conditions of one-vs-two,
「Sakura Blossom One-Sword Style – Consecutive Sakura Flash!」
「Kuh, Shield Whale!」
「Shit… Venom Strike!」
「Bararara… Too soft!」
The old swordsman displayed magnificent swordsmanship, not bringing shame to the title of former world’s strongest.
However, every time he launched a slash, beautiful sakura petals dropped and scattered from the 100 Million Year Sakura.
Those were literally petals of life.
Every time a petal fell, “death” was steadily approaching.
Time passed steadily. About when three minutes had passed,
「Ba-Barararara! At this distance, you won’t be able to get your hands on them anymore!」
The corners of Bacchus’ lips curled, having achieved his strategic goal.
Allen and the others had boarded the gliders and had flown far away over the sea.
They were out of the range of〈Sand Whale of Purification〉and〈Hydra〉.
It can be said that their safety was completely secured.
「Indeed, you’re right. Deal and I can’t use our abilities to get to them anymore, but the same is also true for you.」
「…What do you mean?」
「Hmm, exactly what it sounds like. At this distance, even you can’t interfere, right?」
Von said, smiling fearlessly. He then took out a small radio from his pocket.
「Von Mustang here. The target has been changed from Bacchus Valencia to Allen Rodore. His group is currently flying over the high-skies. All members, deploy your soul dress and eliminate the target with maximum output!」
The moment he gave such an order,
「W-What the hell is this!?」
A tremendous number of gliders appeared from the thick clouds above, surrounding Allen and the others in a pincer move.
