Chapter 1152 The Birth of a Movie King
Lark had only lost control of his emotions because Barnett's words touched a nerve, but now that he had vented, his reason had returned.
Seeing Barnett's sword coming down with a chilling killing intent, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he raised his sword to meet it without hesitation!
The moment their swords clashed, he had only one thought in his mind—he wanted to show this guy who had blasphemed the "faith in the sword" just how strong a swordsman who was partners with a sword really was!
"Ding...ding..."
The crisp, metallic clanging sound was as dense as a sudden downpour striking a window, exploding across the empty battlefield and scattering sparks everywhere.
The two figures moved with ghostly speed, and the battle became increasingly intense. At the beginning, they were entangled in Armament Haki, and later they added Conqueror's Haki. The power that shocked the mind swept across the entire field, causing the surrounding rocks to tumble and even the air to seem to be torn apart with tiny cracks!
Judging from their fight, Lark had the absolute upper hand. After exchanging hundreds of blows, Barnett hadn't managed to land a single hit on Lark, while Lark's sword frequently left wounds on Barnett's body.
If Barnett hadn't been able to rewind time to heal his wounds, he would have died from blood loss long ago. This situation seems to confirm what Lark said: only by treating the sword as the closest companion can one unleash the strongest sword skills.
"Boy! Do you see that? This is the difference. Only by being devout to the sword can you gain a deeper understanding and comprehend the strongest sword moves. Your sword moves are so clumsy, you will surely die today!"
Lak seemed to have found the truth of the world, a maniacal smile on his face, as he swung his longsword wildly and struck Barnett!
Even their own immortality could be broken, so he didn't believe Barnett's "immortality" was invincible. He was confident that he could turn the tide for the Knights of God and kill the man in front of him!
"The outcome is still uncertain until the very end. Take this!"
Barnett didn't say much, but the aura surging into his longsword became even more powerful, and his attacks became swifter and more fearless, with a kind of resolute determination for a final gamble.
Lak sneered without replying. In his eyes, Barnett was now a trapped beast fighting for survival. He could kill him as soon as Barnett's domineering aura was exhausted.
Barnett seemed to be inspired by Lak. He was quick in his attacks and also looking for his opponent's weaknesses. However, even if the power of his moves increased, they still had to hit the target, otherwise it would be a waste of effort!
But Lak has been immersed in swordsmanship for decades, and his greatest skill is using the sword to fight enemies.
He saw through Barnett's thoughts at a glance, immediately restrained his arrogance, and unleashed his full Observation Haki, which enveloped him like an invisible net.
His defense was impeccable; every parry landed precisely on Barnett's blade, neutralizing his attacks.
Unable to find a weakness, Barnett's offensive became increasingly impatient.
His swordplay became increasingly chaotic, his once steady strokes turning into a jumbled mess, appearing full of flaws in Lak's eyes.
After a dozen or so moves, Barnett's aura weakened significantly, and the Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki he infused into his sword became increasingly thin, causing his momentum to plummet.
His face was as pale as paper, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hand holding the sword was trembling slightly, like an old lion driven to the brink of despair, being ruthlessly crushed by a new generation of lion king.
Of course, things weren't always the same for Lak; he also expended a lot of energy, having used up a considerable amount of Haki in order to block Barnett's attack!
As the defender, he expended less energy, but under Barnett's relentless attacks, his dominance was almost depleted!
Even with the ability to be immortal, his domineering aura couldn't be restored immediately without experiencing a brush with death. But seeing Barnett's sudden decline in condition, he was already prepared to reap the other's life!
"Radiant Eyes: Cycle of Life and Death"
The sword in his hand was deflected again, and Barnett's face was filled with determination, as if he were letting out a final cry!
The sword tip pointed straight to the sky, and under the flashing lightning, it seemed to be plated with a layer of silver light, which was extremely dazzling. Even Lak was a little stunned for a moment!
He had seen too many people's reactions before they died, but Barnett's reaction was a first, and it shocked him!
Although he was shocked, Lak wouldn't just stand there and let himself be attacked. He raised his sword again to block, ready to finish off his opponent in the next move!
The moment the two swords made contact, his expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with regret, which was then filled with anger!
It was truly astonishing that such an unremarkable blade emanated an unstoppable force. The moment they made contact, he knew that he simply could not withstand this sword strike!
He wanted to unleash his domineering aura, but found that it was almost depleted. No matter how much he tried to mobilize it, the effect was minimal!
At that moment, Lak understood that he had been tricked. It wasn't that his swordsmanship was so exquisite, nor that the other party couldn't hit him, but that the other party simply didn't want to hurt him!
The other party has already figured out his immortality and knows that as long as he doesn't experience life and death, the domineering aura in his body will be exhausted just like an ordinary person's!
This was the other party's ultimate goal. They even staged a desperate struggle, just waiting for him to reveal his true strength, and he fell for it!
The phrase "like a mantis trying to stop a chariot" perfectly describes Lark's situation at this moment. The instant the two swords clashed, his sword was pressed down without any resistance, and then his body was cleaved in two by Barnett's longsword!
Only when Lak's body, split in two, fell to the ground did crimson lightning burst forth from Barnett's longsword. The mind-shaking power surged outwards like a floodgate opening, attracting many eyes. Everyone knew that yet another divine knight had fallen!
Barnett is indeed a master of deception. Once he figured out Lac's Devil Fruit ability, he knew that this battle would not be easy. If he fought head-on, he might be the one to die in the end, even if he had the ability to rewind time!
The ability to rewind time also consumes physical strength, and the consumption is not small. After all, it involves the laws of time, so he cannot use time rewind indefinitely. Therefore, he immediately formulated a battle plan!
He had almost figured out his opponent's strengths and weaknesses, but his opponent thought his ability was just a low-level version of immortality and didn't realize that his domineering aura could be restored to its peak state at any time. This was the key to his victory!
So he's like a stubborn person who isn't proficient in swordsmanship but easily gets stuck in a dead end after a battle, just unleashing his domineering aura to fight, and will fight to the end even if he can't win!
This way, you can deplete the opponent's Haki, and then restore yourself to your peak condition. Since Lak is already an empty shell, he will naturally be killed in one blow!
