Chapter 1041 Confrontation
Outside the ship, Vicente didn't wait for his enemies to attack him first. He raised one of his arms in the air and formed all 14 of his pentagrams, bringing out his best.
The enemy group had beings from the middle of the 8th stage, and they were from races he didn't know. In the dark about their abilities and how the effects of being at sea could make the fight easier for them and harder for him, he went in search of the deaths of these creatures.
As a Throne of Light and Darkness formed behind him, he pressed the weakest creatures in the area, low-level Grand Magus, using his magnetic powers.
The sea was not the best place for him to use his magnetic powers. The continent had a much higher concentration of metals than the sea, which naturally raised Vicente's proficiency with his magnetic powers.
He felt this in his skin as he found it more difficult to blow up the bodies of his enemies with his ability. However, he had several killing methods in mind and when he saw that one wouldn't work; he switched to a more appropriate one.
Although his attempt to kill the first opponents while the domain of darkness and light was forming in this area failed, he managed to stop the enemies from moving into ambush.
Soon afterwards, metal left his spatial ring and the sea itself, forming weapons that traveled through space by wormhole until they reached the first of those fish men pressured by his suppressive action.
The weakest were wounded, but to Vicente's surprise, his weapons managed to do no more than scratch off some of the strongest individuals he had acted against.
He frowned. 'Tsk! As I expected. They're strengthened in their natural habitat and I'm weakened...'
Giving up his magnetic powers, Vicente focused only on Light and Dark, elements that couldn't be weakened just because he was at sea.
Certainly, the fact that it was daytime weakened his darkness a little, but it strengthened his light just as much.
Several golden spears appeared in the air around Vicente, firing in sequence at the wreckage just in front of where he was floating.
Darkness spread using the protection of the light and as soon as the 25th second had passed since Vicente's action began, it covered the day and turned that area of the sea into a hell of darkness.
Shadow demons emerged from within the sea, attacking the creatures trying to escape Vicente.
They hadn't expected to find such strong targets that day. The group despaired of losing contact with the rest of their group far away, as they watched their enemy's figure grow as if he were the devil himself.
The forbidden entity, bearer of light and darkness, acted, using supreme darkness and light at the same time, blinding them as it attacked.
Vicente's body glowed so brightly that it seemed to have become a star, while the shadow devils continued to act, unaffected by the light generated by their own master.
But the glow from Vicente's body not only made the many fish men lose track of their surroundings, it also strengthened the light attacks even more, which finally broke through the vigorous defenses of his enemies.
The sound of pain from those first affected by him in this barrage of attacks hardly spread through the surroundings, given the noise of the monsters of darkness fighting against the fish men trying to use the sea to their advantage.
Some of them even used the large amount of water around them to launch counterattacks and try to escape, but after the first fell, the chances of the others plummeted.
Meanwhile, Vicente saw through his glowing body, feeling the power of his 7th pentagram. His latest pentagram could give him light abilities, including bringing daylight into even the darkest environments and strengthening light strikes.
The ability also gave its user an extremely resistant shell, capable of withstanding high-powered blows without posing a risk to its user. In fact, for a few moments, Vicente would be almost immortal. As long as he escaped within three seconds, even damage capable of killing him would recover.
It was no wonder that the name of the beast that gave him this pentagram was the Rebirth Butterfly!
Rebirth Butterfly didn't have that chance with Vicente back then, just as he wouldn't if he eventually failed to escape the threat capable of seriously injuring him after the 3-second time limit. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Today, however, was not the day for him to worry about this ability of his. He had killed 80% of the fish men in his path after making use of his 7th skill, feeling a heavy burden for spending the amount of mana needed to deal with so many Grand Magus at once.
As many times as he had fought individuals of such a stage, never before had he faced so many opponents simultaneously.
As he acted to take down the large number of pirates in front of him, he used up a great deal of his energy, learning in the process about their weaknesses and strengths in sea combat.
Those who didn't die ended up badly wounded. When Vicente's body returned to normal and the darkness of his domain gradually gave way to daylight again, his crew and he saw the situation of the survivors around the remains of a wrecked ship that had previously caught the group's attention.
Vicente sat on his throne, still visible in that place, and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the survivors, noticing that they had a line of communication with other beings that had remained out of their reach.
Vicente promptly destroyed that communication, giving the survivors no chance to send a signal or even to live much longer after witnessing what he had done.
With a shake of his dominant hand, Vicente used the darkness he had made to enter the bodies of those fish men, finally managing to blow up some enemies on his second attempt.
'I'm stronger, but obviously I have to get used to my current circumstances.' He thought as he checked the bodies of the enemies and the remnants in the surrounding area.
That really seemed to be the remains of a destroyed ship and not just a trap. Among the wreckage, he found some interesting items, which he took the trouble to collect in order to return to his ship and leave this area as soon as possible.
There was no time for Nan's group to collect those resources calmly. As soon as this fight was over, he returned from where he had left, already signaling the people on the ship to prepare for their hasty departure from the area.
