Chapter 609: What Was That Thunder Thing? (Third Update)
This flash of Lightning came so abruptly and was incredibly vicious, showing no regard for Leone in Bullet's hand.
"Ahhhhhh!"
This caused Leone to suffer greatly, even though Bullet seemed unaffected. She let out a shrill Scream amidst the dazzling Golden Light of the Lightning.
It was clear the Power of the Lightning was quite formidable.
"Hmph!"
Amidst the wildly spreading Electric Flash, Bullet saw this scene and let out a displeased cold snort.
He immediately released the Armament Haki within his Body, forming an invisible Haki barrier around the two of them, forcing all the Lightning away. This finally saved Leone from being electrocuted to death.
However, her current Situation wasn't very optimistic either.
Even after Bullet released her Right Hand, she was still half-kneeling on the ground with a face contorted in pain, using both hands to support her soft, hot, and numb Body.
This was the Terrifying Aspects of Lightning.
Even the 'Lion King' wouldn't fare much better if struck.
"Was I still a step too late? What a pity."
In the High Altitude, a cold voice echoed throughout the entire Battlefield.
Many people, including Bullet, subconsciously looked up.
They found that at some unknown point, the entire blue sky had been covered by thick Dark Clouds.
They saw a blond man wearing silver-gray full body Armor, a Black Coat draped over his back, and two upward-swept Bangs on his head.
His entire Body was bathed in Golden Lightning, floating in the Air beneath the Dark Clouds.
He looked down at Bullet from above, his Gaze and Face extremely resolute and stern and cold.
Only when his Gaze swept over Blande, who had completely stopped breathing, did a hint of regret, difficult to detect, appear.
"A pillar of The Empire has fallen just like that!"
This person was, of course, The Empire's Air Force General Bud.
His Imperial Arms was 'Admirer of the Thunder God's Wrath'.
It belonged to the same type of Element Manipulation Imperial Arms as Esdeath's 'Demon God Manifestation'.
However, it wasn't a Parasitic Type, but an Equipment Type, which was the set of Armor he was wearing.
Aside from the Defense provided by the Armor itself, its Ability primarily allowed him to release and control Lightning for attack, and he could even summon large-scale Thunderclouds at any time.
The reason he could fly in the Air now was due to a Development allowing him to levitate himself by controlling electromagnetic force.
He had rushed to the Battlefield here at Mount Famu as quickly as possible after the Imperial Capital received General Bulat's Support request last night, following the Emperor's Order and utilizing the Spatial Teleportation Ability of the Strategic Class Imperial Arm 'Dimensional Array'.
He hadn't expected to still be late, resulting in The Empire's greatest casualties to date.
As for Esdeath, although Bud didn't Understand why she had been out of contact for many days, he believed that with her Strength being greater than his own, it was impossible for her to be in serious trouble.
And right behind this General Bols.
One after another, Fire Dragons carrying Purgatory Knights, flapped their dragon wings and flew in the Air beneath the Thunderclouds. Their number was estimated to be over seven hundred.
In addition, there were countless Black Laing Giant Eagles, too numerous to easily count.
He had brought most of The Empire's Air Force Unit's main force.
"Invaders, you must Pay the most tragic price for invading The Empire and for the death of General Bulat!"
"Thunderstorm Descent!"
General Bols roared loudly, raising his hands wrapped in Electric Serpents high.
The next moment.
Amidst the Dark Clouds, the Electric Flash intensified, accompanied by Lightning and Thunder. Streaks of Golden Lightning, as if possessing Self-awareness, skillfully avoided their own Fire Dragons and Giant Eagles, striking down towards the Officers and Soldiers of the World Government.
"Roar!!!"
"Chew!"
At the same time.
Over two thousand Black Laing Giant Eagles, slightly larger than Fighter Aircraft, aggressively swooped towards the Flying Warships and Fighter Jet Group of the World Government in the distance.
The Empire's Air Force Vice Admiral Ran was leading the remaining three hundred and forty-two Purgatory Knights in an aerial battle there.
Large numbers of Black Laing Giant Eagles formed a dense black mass, appearing extremely imposing and giving off a strong Sense of Oppression.
At least in terms of quantity, they far surpassed the Fighter Aircraft.
This was unavoidable.
The transport Efficiency of the Small Stargate, even with the boost from the Shrinking Tunnel, made it difficult for too many Air Force Units to enter, as most of the Time was spent serving the Army.
However, in this World where Supernatural Power exists, the side with fewer numbers is not necessarily the weaker one.
Looking at the Purgatory Knights riding Fire Dragons, under the leadership of another Air Force Vice Admiral, Bols, they quickly flew towards the World Government's Army Faction.
Soon.
The Fire Dragons spewed surging Pillars of Fire downwards, while the Knights on their backs pulled the Trigger of the Dragon Fire Guns in their hands, unleashing Flames no less powerful than the former.
The most terrifying among them was the Imperial Arms 'Infernal Calling: Rubicante' in Vice Admiral Bols's hands.
The Flames it released, whether in Range, area, or temperature, far surpassed those of the surrounding Fire Dragons and Subordinates.
[Rumble...]
They created a raging sea of flames, swallowing up large numbers of the World Government's Main Combat Soldiers, and even Cold and Ruthlessly Sacrificed some of their own Soldiers who were intermingled with them.
Seeing this scene, Vice Admirals and Rear Admirals like Onigumo were furious. After quickly dealing with their Opponents, the Imperial Faction's Vice Admirals and Rear Admirals, they used Moonwalk and charged over.
However, their movements were met with powerful attacks from the Thunderclouds above. Large amounts of Golden Lightning crackled and struck down on their heads.
"Damn it!"
Onigumo's Face was filled with anger. He either used his eight Long Sabers coated with Haki to block the electric shocks or continuously dodged using Moonwalk and Observation Haki.
But no matter what, he was indeed held up.
Mainly because there was too much Lightning striking down, like Heavy Rain pouring down.
This move 'Thunderstorm' by Bud was similar to Esdeath's 'Blizzard'. It only consumed his Stamina when it was initially released.
During the duration, the wind, snow, and Lightning were actually powered by nature itself; his role was merely to guide the Lightning in the Thunderclouds.
This resulted in continuous, incessant Lightning attacks as long as the Thunderclouds didn't dissipate and Bud himself wasn't defeated.
"A bit too arrogant."
Bullet narrowed his eyes, watching the Lightning constantly striking the Haki barrier.
Bud had successfully provoked his anger.
"Hmm?"
But just as he was about to make a move and take down another Air Force Admiral of The Empire, he seemed to discover something and stopped his movements, simultaneously letting out a highly dissatisfied complaint.
"This Bastard, he clearly said he'd leave the big fish for me, but he didn't keep his word!"
Meanwhile.
In the Air.
Just as Bud was focused on controlling the Lightning in the Thunderclouds to strike the Invaders below, a massive shadow suddenly enveloped him from behind.
At the same time, a strong Sense of Danger caused Fear to well up in his Heart, making his Expression and Body involuntarily stiffen.
"Thunder Armor!!"
Bud didn't hesitate at all, nor did he look back. He immediately released a large amount of Lightning to surround his Body. And in that instant, the Armor on his back was struck by a fierce heavy blow.
[Duang----]
Like a true roar of thunder, visible Air Current accompanied by streaks of purple Lightning spread out. Bud's figure turned into a Golden Meteor and fell towards the Chaos on the Battlefield below.
And in that instant, his ears faintly heard a roar, most of its Sound masked by the Loud Noise.
"What was that thunder thing..."
