Hanon gasped, "Hiss—you don't actually have feelings for me, do you? Are you really going to commit suicide...? It's hard for me to respond to something like this right now..."

"Pfft—hahahaha, what are you thinking!" "Holy Spirit" laughed loudly, his spirits lifted: "I consider you a confidant! Unlike you, I don't have many close friends. The time I've spent with you has been one of the happiest days of my life."

Hanon wanted to say "Me too," but unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Thanks to the memories of a transmigrator, she escaped the shadow of the car accident that was almost "Hanaon's destiny," developed a variety of hobbies, and made many friends, relatives, and lovers... But Hanon could still respond from the bottom of her heart: "When we first met, we were talking and laughing in the Tokyo Skytree in another world. That time it was at the top of the tower, but this time we are fighting together at the bottom of the tower. We have a really deep bond with this place. I am also very happy with you."

"Alright, then let's stick together through thick and thin."

The spiritual exchange was completed in an instant. As Kanon from both worlds reached a consensus, the clones of Kanon from the other world swarmed in and launched a full-scale attack.

Four clones attacked Hanon from four directions with "Razor," "Demon Spear," "Rakshasa Palm," and the ordinary "Exploding Core," completely sealing off Hanon's space to maneuver. Unexpectedly, Hanon remained unfazed and quickly devised a countermeasure. She stepped forward and charged towards one of the clones using "Exploding Core," using a technique to manipulate the flow of power to redirect this easiest attack to the clone using "Rakshasa Palm," causing the two to collide. Then, she used the "Illusory Transformation" technique to change direction and turn back to face the clone using "Razor," using the "Thunderbolt" technique to withstand the attack. Hanon was unharmed, and the clone's offensive was neutralized.

In terms of physical ability, these clones are no less than Kanon, and their skills are only slightly inferior. However, in combat, experience and imagination are also very important, especially between top masters, where a single thought can make a world of difference. Kanon has just demonstrated this point, easily turning a four-person attack into a one-on-one battle without even activating "Valkyrie Mode".

Only the clone wielding the "Demon Gun" was still attacking, but in a one-on-one fight, no one in the world could match Hanon at this moment—her heartbeat sounded like a battle song, her eyes were bloodshot, and her skin was bulging with veins. She activated "Valkyrie Mode" and threw a punch at the clone's "Demon Gun".

This punch was not only a "core-exploding" punch, but also a shockwave technique. It was already very powerful. And it was a fist against a finger. With a few "crack" sounds, the clone's finger bones, wrist bones, and arm bones broke all at once, and the entire arm went paralyzed.

Even so, Kanon was still not satisfied: "The damage is lower than expected. It seems that 'Black Robe' has individually adjusted the resonant frequency of the nanobots for each clone. This is the worst-case scenario. We need to collect data from each clone again."

Having broken through the attacks of four clones in one go, Hanon had already demonstrated the strength of the world's number one fighter. However, she didn't have time to think much. As soon as the four retreated, four more clones surrounded her in the blink of an eye. The clones' attacks were coordinated and managed by the "black robe," and they even had a precise set of coordinated moves, all to make it impossible for Hanon to fight them all.

But Kanon wasn't alone; the "Holy Spirit" resided within her, and its assistance went far beyond simply having extra fists. With a flick of the "Holy Spirit's" superpower, the four newly arrived clones were sent flying—their fighting power was practically comparable to a thousand-armed, thousand-eyed bodhisattva!

After the "Holy Spirit" exerted its power, it also created time for Hanon to recover. In fact, because her recovery time was particularly short, she still had the energy to actively attack the clone after adjusting! It was still that unlucky guy with a missing arm. He couldn't withstand Hanon's fierce attack at all. In the blink of an eye, he was hit by several heavy punches from Hanon. Each of them was "blown away with one hand." Waves of energy rose and fell in his body. Several streams of energy condensed into wild winds, turning his internal organs into a mess. This clone didn't utter a sound and just collapsed to the ground, dead.

The combination of Kanon, who is the strongest in the world in terms of strength, and the Holy Spirit, who is considered to have the strongest superpowers in the world after the "evil spirit" was suppressed, is simply the "world's strongest duo"!

"One falls, but a whole bunch more will follow... Phew, let's go!"

Author's Note: It looks like I'll have to finish writing it tomorrow. That's fine, I'll try to finish the ending this afternoon and not release it late at night.

Section 961, Chapter 952: The Wall of Sighs

Despite being exhausted, the combination of Kanon and "Holy Spirit" truly represents the pinnacle of individual combat power in the world. They fought their way in and out of the clones of "Black Robe" Kanon without any hindrance. In the end, the clones couldn't even leave a single scratch!

It's truly baffling. Each of the clones is a formidable woman with unparalleled combat power, yet they managed to fight like this despite being outnumbered. Initially, this was due to a difference in experience and adaptability, but it's not that "Black Robe" couldn't learn from experience and adapt. As the battle continued, "Black Robe" became increasingly adept at controlling the rhythm of the fight—her car accident had given her extraordinary scientific talent. While this didn't mean she was a genius in every other area, it was undeniably helpful in learning combat. Moreover, the deeper "Black Robe's" understanding of combat was applied to the clone horde, instantly creating a tenfold, even twentyfold, boost—making them incredibly formidable.

The fact that these "black-robed" figures and their clones still couldn't defeat Kanon and the "Holy Spirit" can only mean one thing: Kanon and her companion are growing faster in battle than the "black-robed" figures!

On one hand, Kanon and the "Holy Spirit" are becoming more and more in sync and skilled in their cooperation; on the other hand, Kanon is also gradually figuring out the frequency range of the clones, and their power is constantly increasing during offense and defense.

Speaking of which, Hanon hasn't been learning the Vibration Technique for very long. Although she has plenty of practical experience, the total training time is still a bit short, and there's still a lot of room for improvement in how Hanon uses it.

She learned many techniques in this battle, such as how to quickly figure out her opponent's resonance frequency, how to use the technique of vibration in defense, and how to efficiently transmit vibrations for a fatal blow...

"Bang!" A clone struck Hanon, but instead, Hanon trembled all over, spat out a mouthful of blood, and collapsed in front of her.

This is because Hanon incorporated the shockwave technique into her defense, strengthening her original "Fengxian" move. This time, the shockwave from the counterattack traveled extremely far and was at the optimal resonance frequency, directly hitting the clone's vital organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys. Under Hanon's terrifying attack, the fallen clone twitched a few times and then stopped breathing, clearly beyond saving.

Unexpectedly, Kanon, a martial artist who adheres to the "non-killing" principle, has finally unleashed her killing spree, but the target is a clone of herself from a parallel universe...

However, Kanon had no time to savor the feeling after the killing, as the fierce battle was still going on!

"I'm so tired!" Hanon yelled, and immediately felt a cool sensation surge from her heart, quickly spreading throughout her body. Her limbs felt lighter, and she regained her strength. This was once again the work of the "Holy Spirit," who used her superpowers to restore Hanon's energy.

Moreover, the "Holy Spirit" waved his hand, forcing back the other clones that had seized the opportunity to attack, creating an opportunity for Hanon—after recovering her strength, she directly activated "Boundless Transformation" and rushed towards the "Black Robe" main body.

The clones are no longer a concern; it's time to catch the kingpin!

Just as Hanon was approaching the "black robe," her arm suddenly bent with a "crack" sound, her elbow dislocated. An almost irresistible force suddenly pressed down on her arm, causing Hanon's body to fall downwards, just like the clone that had suddenly landed halfway through its flight.

Despite the sudden change, Hanon remained calm, as if she had been prepared. She somersaulted in mid-air and used her superb "force dissipation" technique to relieve the pressure and stand still.

"Not surprising, it turns out to be a gravity field." Hanon calmly repositioned her dislocated elbow, thinking to herself.

Setting bones on the spot is not difficult for a fighter like Kanon, and with the "Holy Spirit" helping to control her nerve sensations, she feels no pain at all. The sudden attack just now was Kanon and the "Holy Spirit" testing the "Black Robe" to find out how she managed to take down the clone that was smashing towards her.

"I've considered several possibilities, including creating a gravity field around her. It's not unexpected that she uses this method for self-defense, but it's a very troublesome situation." "Holy Spirit" also responded to Hanon: "Not only that, I've been trying to attack her with my mental power since the start of the battle, but it dissipates as soon as I get close. This gravity field not only restricts physical attacks, but it's also ineffective against superpowers. It's practically a 'Wall of Sighs'... Huh? What's with that expression?"

To the surprise of "Holy Spirit," Hanon displayed an exaggerated, incredulous expression, her eyes wide open. If the battle hadn't been so urgent, she might have even rubbed her forehead to enhance the effect.

"'Wall of Sighs'? You're overestimating her." While dealing with the clones that were attacking again, Hanon analyzed the battle situation with "Holy Spirit": "Her gravity wall is indeed very powerful. It could crush my arm in an instant if I broke through it. Your superpower is useless. A frontal breakthrough would undoubtedly be a dead end—but who says we have to go for the frontal breakthrough?"

"what do you mean……"

“Go up or down, we live in the three-dimensional world, and the battle space is three-dimensional.” As a fighter, Kanon’s understanding of the battle situation and her response to various situations are obviously more flexible than “Holy Spirit”: “Her gravity field cannot be extended indefinitely. It may only be limited to this laboratory. It is not difficult to bypass it. In fact, the gravity field needs a generator, which is placed on the ceiling or under the tiles.”

"You're right! I was so busy fighting that I didn't even notice." If the "Holy Spirit" had a physical form at this moment, he would definitely be slapping his forehead: "If I can't destroy the gravity wall, surely I can destroy the ground and the ceiling!"

Without hesitation, the spiritual power of the "Holy Spirit" radiated from Hanon's body. With a series of "crackling" sounds, the tiles on the laboratory floor and the plywood on the ceiling were lifted up, revealing the secrets inside in the blink of an eye—sure enough, there was a fist-sized machine on each of them, which must be the device that generates the "Wall of Sighs".

Although he had seen the target, "Holy Spirit" sighed again: "This is not good. I tried it, and these two devices, I don't know what material they are made of, are immune to my superpowers and cannot be destroyed."

Kanon practically rolled her eyes to the heavens: "If superpowers can't destroy machines, then control rocks to smash them! Hey, leave it to me—"

Just then, four or five clones attacked from behind. Kanon used her superpowers to push them away, while she used "Unbounded Transformation" to dash forward and attack the gravity wall generator.

Just as the punch was about to land, a clone suddenly appeared from the side, slashing at Hanon with a "finger razor" attack.

This clone had been lying in wait underground, protecting the gravity generator and serving as a surprise attack when necessary. Now is the time for her to make her move... just kidding!

“I knew you were prepared—and so was I.” The clone’s “razor” also missed. Hanon leaped into the air, stomped on the clone’s shoulder, and the shockwave sent it crashing down. Hanon then rose up and smashed the machine on the ceiling with a punch.

It's done! Hanon fell diagonally downwards, breaking through the original gravity wall's boundary without being affected at all. Clearly, this "Wall of Sighs" has been breached, and all that's left is the "black robe" itself... eh?

Hanon's falling body suddenly stopped, as if she had been grabbed by something and could not move.

“I knew you were prepared—and so was I.” The “black-robed” echoed the tone of Hana’s earlier words, with a hint of mockery.

The "Wall of Sighs" is not just a gravity wall. It turns out that the "Black Robe" has another line of defense: a bunch of mechanical tentacles connected to the tubes behind her head. They are very flexible and powerful. What's even more terrifying is that these tentacles are transparent!

Author's Note: That's all for today, see you tomorrow!

Section 962, Chapter 953: Each Giving Their All

What kind of move is this?

What's terrifying about this isn't that "Black Robe" Kanon predicted Kanon's prediction, but that these mechanical tentacles are actually transparent.

The "black-robed" version of Kanon, who wreaks havoc in her own world, would be an almost cataclysmic event in any timeline. But what makes her terrifying is not how high her energy level is, but how insidious and bizarre her black technologies are.

Destroying the Earth is difficult, but wiping out humanity is relatively easy. It doesn't require individual combat power to destroy the world; just a few nuclear bombs are enough to trigger nuclear coercion. After the world is at nuclear peace, everyone will be picking up bottle caps together. What ambitious people need to do is become the person who controls the nuclear bomb button, or the person who controls the nuclear bomb button.

The "Black Robe" is like that. In the original timeline, she did not trigger a nuclear war, but she used her abilities, which are far beyond what ordinary people can understand, to assassinate many dissidents who stood in her way, manipulate many useful key people, and easily mine and gather global energy. In just a few years, she almost emptied the earth. When she finally began her journey to seize the emotions of other "Ye Huayin", the energy crisis in that world was already on the verge of exploding.

This is the terrifying aspect of stealth technology; it represents the endless bloodshed and darkness behind the "black robe," and it also foreshadows that if she successfully replaces Hanon, the future of this world will be in grave danger.

Entangled in mechanical tentacles and brought before the "black-robed" figure, Ye Huayin, the world's number one martial artist, was completely immobilized and had no power to struggle at all!

But what's more devastating than physical setbacks is mental exhaustion.

Kanon recalled her journey, from being frail and weak after the car accident to fighting with thugs at Tsurumine Academy, from encountering Aguya and Oni-no-Shan during her martial arts training to defeating countless powerful opponents and winning the championship in the Deathmatch Tournament, from the China Martial Arts Province Sea King Tournament to the world's underworld "BIG" tournament, from competing in the Tokyo Dome underground arena to the fierce battle against the five death row inmates, from defeating the primitive man Piko to encountering the resurrected Miyamoto Musashi, and after Musashi, there was Hanma Yujiro. Just when she finally reached the level of the world's number one, a superpowered person and a villain with black technology appeared...

Hanon felt like Captain America from Marvel. He finally became a super soldier, fought off a few waves of enemies, and then suddenly fell asleep in ice for seventy years. When he woke up, the world had changed. He was surrounded by high-tech tycoons, aliens who claimed to be gods, and incredibly powerful mutants. His opponents had also become various black technologies, superpowers, and aliens... Enough is enough.

Hanon stopped struggling, her heart filled with weariness, as if she were saying, "Destroy it already, I'm tired," and let the "black robe" do as it pleased.

In the nick of time, thanks to the "Holy Spirit" shouting in Hana's mind, she was jolted awake: "Hey! Wake up! Don't fall for her tricks! She's absorbing your emotions!"

The souls of the dead have already dissipated, so when the "Black Robe" absorbs the souls of the "Ye Huayins," it cannot let its prey be completely dead. It is best if the prey is exhausted, severely injured, and half-dead, so that its soul can be absorbed and integrated into itself. This is why the "Black Robe" personally finishes off the "Ye Huayins" that were captured before. The only exception is the "Evil Spirit," who ran into the "Black Robe" right after committing suicide, and its soul had not gone far... Cough, speaking of which, although Huayin was not in a near-death state, she was also extremely tired. As mentioned before, the "Black Robe's" remaining strong emotions were almost entirely greed for the happy lives of the other Huayins, so it began to absorb her emotions as soon as it locked Huayin in, which caused Huayin's positive emotions to be lost.

"Ah!" Hanon exclaimed, truly awakened by the "Holy Spirit," but even in her dazed state, she was still helpless: "Damn it, if I can't break free, all is lost!"

“All her mechanical products are immune to mental manipulation, so I can’t help you directly,” the “Holy Spirit” said. “But your advice to me just now was very good—if you can’t destroy them directly, just smash them with stones.”

With a creaking and twisting sound, a steel pipe snapped in half as the roof was lifted, swiftly slicing through the invisible mechanical tentacles and breaking it in two.

The mechanical tentacles instantly lost their invisibility and immense strength, allowing Kanon to break free. She grabbed the severed tentacle, threw it aside, and smashed off another tentacle, sending sparks flying.

The "black-robed" woman's indifferent face finally revealed a look of anxiety. Perhaps it was because her trump card had finally been figured out, seen through, and cracked by Hanon and the "Holy Spirit," or perhaps it was because she had just absorbed a bit of Hanon's emotions when she was interrupted, and the feeling of being suspended in mid-air drove her crazy. In any case, the invisible tentacles also started to grab wildly. Even though they couldn't see the physical form, they knew from the sound of the wind that the tentacles were attacking Hanon.

"Holy Spirit" said anxiously, "Damn it, these tentacles are fast and flexible. I have limited materials to control, and it's hard to defend against them!"

"Relax, as long as you prepare in advance, leave the rest to me." Having regained her freedom, Hanon's fighting spirit was rekindled. Judging the location by sound is a martial artist's specialty, and even if she can't see these tentacles, she is still capable of fighting.

With a swift movement, Hanon grabbed an incoming mechanical tentacle, using the momentum to leap into the air. She then stepped onto another tentacle and ran forward, closing in on the "black robe" in just a few steps. As the "black robe's" tentacles returned to reinforce, Hanon jumped away again.

For a moment, Kanon moved lightly and gracefully among the mechanical tentacles. Because the tentacles were invisible, Kanon looked like a fairy flying in the air.

But Hanon knew what she was doing. She wasn't just mindlessly dodging; she would occasionally grab or strike the tentacles, guiding them to her advantage: "It's a bit strange, but this is a rare 'group technique' giveaway from me, Hanon!"

It turns out that Hanon used positioning and active guidance to gradually twist those invisible mechanical tentacles together, causing them to tie themselves into knots and continuously weaken their mobility.

The "black-robed" figure also saw through Hanon's intentions. She didn't want to do this either, but once the pursuit of the tentacles slowed down, Hanon rushed close again, forcing the "black-robed" figure to continue using the tentacles... After all, it's better to fail later than to lose now.

As for the clones, the "Black Robe" couldn't count on them either; with the "Holy Spirit" suppressing them, they couldn't get close at all.

"All done!" Hanon finally grinned and let out a hearty laugh: "Now you move again, you bastard!"

The deadlock of the invisible tentacles is now complete, and it seems that the "black robe" is powerless to stop Kanon!

"Whoosh—" "Holy Spirit" followed up at the right time, manipulating the steel pipe to slash at the base of the tentacle, cutting off all the knotted tentacles, and a tangled ball of mechanical thread appeared in everyone's sight.

"What... should I do next?" Looking at the immobilized "black-robed" figure, Hanon hesitated. Although she had just killed several clones, should she really attack her counterpart from another world? Could she bring herself to do it...?

After all, she was a good girl who had grown up in a harmonious society. Hana's momentary mercy caused her to hesitate, and the "black-robed" figure underwent a change. Actually, it wasn't her who changed, but rather the clones that charged forward again. Normally, the "Holy Spirit" could have suppressed them with a wave of her hand, but this time was different. The first clone leaped into the air, its chest emitting a bright red light, followed by a heatwave and a deafening roar—just like the clones in the previous battle at the stadium, it would self-destruct!

The explosion was some distance from "Black Robe" and Kanon, so it didn't cause any real damage, but the hot wind was so strong that Kanon was losing her balance.

This is the "Black Robe's" final madness! She controls her clones to rush in from different angles, self-destructing, gambling on whether Kanon will kill her first or she will blow Kanon up first, even at the cost of mutual destruction.

As the clones rushed in from all sides, with waves of sound and heat constantly surging forth, even the "Holy Spirit" couldn't cope. Without thinking twice, Hana grabbed the steel pipe and stabbed it into the "black robe" buried in the pipeline.

Let's make a bet and see if you explode faster or I sprint faster!

It's a gamble on speed, and the stakes are lives. Everyone is "Ye Hana-on," but who can break free and continue living as "Ye Hana-on"?

"boom!"
