My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—
Chapter 400 Defenseless StrategyWith the taming process successful, Satoshi welcomed the Scarlet Scythe to his team with open arms. At the moment, he finally had four Representatives in his party, which should've been impossible for a normal trainer.
This was mentioned by Yun Zhe before but apparently, even the most talented beast tamer could only tame two to three Representatives at the maximum. That was the set limit throughout history. But then again, a year ago it was widely accepted that the maximum tamed beasts a beast tamer could integrate with is one. That's it. But this year it was proven wrong. As it turned out, one could integrate with as many tamed beasts as they could as long as they have the mental capacity and control.
"Wow, your team is pretty scary." Yun Zhe commented but he was not in the least bit fazed by it. He was plenty strong as it is, and he knew that in terms of control, he was better than Satoshi. This underestimation of Satoshi's power led him to believe that Satoshi couldn't possibly defeat him.
"You're team is pretty solid as well. I've seen your fight during the semifinals. It was pretty one-sided." Satoshi commented. He could tell that Yun Zhe was used to his team, and that's why he was capable of integrating with five of them all at once.
"Are you sure about adding the Scarlet Scythe to your team? Can you even integrate with the Scarlet Scythe? I'm sure you can't. There's no way you can integrate with a tamed beast after it joins your team, much less when we're talking about a Representative." Yun Zhe confidently muttered.
"Hoh, are you sure about that?" Satoshi said, smirking.
Nevertheless, Yun Zhe perceived Satoshi's words as mere false confidence. It was impossible for someone to integrate with a tamed beast they haven't bonded with. That's why Yun Zhe was really confident that Satoshi won't be able to integrate with the Scarlet Scythe.
"Then again, that puts us on equal ground. I can only integrate with five of my tamed beasts at the moment. So I'll only be using five of my tamed beast while I bench my sixth one." Yun Zhe continued.
Honestly, it's taking all of Yun Zhe's mental strength to keep his Penta Beast Integration stable. That's why he didn't have the capability of commanding another tamed beast on top of that. It's not like he had a choice when it came to leaving his sixth tamed beast... it's just that he couldn't really do anything else if he activated his Penta Beast Integration.
"I see. Well, let's see if what you're saying is true." Satoshi responded with the same blind confidence— or so that's what Yun Zhe thought he was doing.
Seeing that the two were done riling each other up, the referee finally found the time to start the match. After raising his hand, he brought it down and yelled. "FIGHT START!" He then dashed all the way to the side of the grand stage in hopes that he won't be caught in the crossfire while the match started.
Seizing his chance, Yun Zhe immediately extended his hand and called out for his five tamed beasts that completed his 'exodia' transformation. His sixth tamed beast was actually a fire salamander— a literal placeholder since they've decided on six tamed beasts for the finals match.
As for Satoshi, he realized that Yun Zhe was still doubting him, just like the people in the audience who were skeptical about the appearance of the Scarlet Scythe. There was still debate whether what the Scarley Scythe said was true or not, but the majority more or less assumed that its owner, Jana, was really dead. Yun Zhe, on the other hand, decided not to believe everything, trying to be sanguine about the entire situation. Since he has not heard from his Manager that Jana was really dead, he decided not to dwell on the thought too much. If something earth-shattering (for him) as Jana's death was to happen, then he was confident that his Manager would tell him about it.
Right now, he still hasn't heard a single word from his Manager regarding the topic, so he assumed that the Scarlet Scythe simply chose another master since Jana was not capable of taming it or something along those lines. Still, there was a nagging feeling deep within him that said Jana was really dead.
"Let me show you something," Satoshi called out, snapping Yun Zhe back to reality.
At that moment, Yun Zhe had already completed his Penta Beast Integration. As usual, he looked like an unstoppable entity with his full-armor mecha and the wings and steel ring on his back.
"Then show me."
Without hesitation, Satoshi ran toward Yun Zhe, accelerating at full speed. Simultaneously, he ordered all of his familiars to stay where they were.
Filled with bewilderment, Yun Zhe had no idea why Satoshi was defenselessly charging at him. 'Is this some sort of a mind game? What did he intend to show me?' He asked himself in confusion. Regardless, he didn't get out of the way while Satoshi approached him. He couldn't beat the living daylights out of him without him approaching, after all.
And then he jumped.
Now, Yun Zhe was perfectly convinced that Satoshi had no idea what he was doing. He simply charged at him and then jumped like a madman without any sign of attacking or defending at all. Even the audience started screaming at Satoshi— that he'll lose by a landslide if he keeps it up.
Even then, Yun Zhe was level-headed enough to defend against any surprise attack. 'I believe Satoshi wouldn't move so carelessly like that without a plan. He should be planning something... but what did he want to show me?' Yun Zhe asked himself.
There was a brief flash, followed by the clanking of metals.
When Satoshi was within arms reach of Yun Zhe, his body lit up in a split second. One moment, he was as defenseless as a newborn fawn, the next moment he was wielding the Scarlet Scythe and had successfully integrated with it. The scarlet and black armor that instantly enveloped Satoshi stood out more than Yun Zhe's steel armor.
In that instant, Yun Zhe managed to block Satoshi's strike with the Scarlet Scythe. A smile appeared on Yun Zhe's face. Previously, he wasn't sure whether Satoshi was taking the finals match seriously or not. But now, he was fairly certain that he went to the finals to win and not to play around.
"Now we're talking." Yun Zhe grunted, pushing Satoshi out of the way before using the Primordial Excalibur on him. Another clang was heard as both weapons connected, driving home the fact that the Primordial Excalibur and the Scarlet Scythe are more or less equal in terms of durability.
Some of the audience stood up in disbelief when they realized that Satoshi had easily integrated with the Scarlet Scythe. It should've been impossible since they never had any bond in the first place, but Satoshi pulled it off, impressing everyone. Luke Skyrunner had to rub his eyes before he commented on Satoshi's achievement. For a moment, he thought he was dreaming. Never in his life did he expect to witness such a smooth integration between a beast tamer and a tamed beast.
"What was that?"
"That's impossible, right?"
"Even if it were possible, I'll still find it hard to believe."
"This Satoshi kid, he may be the best beast tamer to ever live."
A man hung his mouth open in shock as juice flowed from his mouth. Some of the audience started screaming, and those who were calling out that Satoshi was throwing the match, well, they were put in their place and they kept quiet for the rest of the match.
Without missing a beat, Satoshi integrated with Sera and Ghast, giving him the much-needed support needed so he could go head-to-head with Yun Zhe. Ghast provided Satoshi with instant teleportation, and Sera gave him all the buffs he needed. She also provided him with the ability to fly, so he won't have to worry about Yun Zhe kiting him from in mid-air.
"That was quite a performance, but I'm just getting started." Yun Zhe declared. This time, he was the one who charged Satoshi while pointing his Primordial Excalibur upward. Once he caught up to him, he smashed his greatsword right on Satoshi's face.
Satoshi was quick to react, however, and he teleported out of the way, flanking Yun Zhe and swinging the Scarlet Scythe with his bodily momentum. From the corner of his eyes, Yun Zhe saw Satoshi's attack as if it were in slow motion. With his thought, he activated the gigantic steel ring that floated behind him. It started spinning rapidly, protecting his six as his other shield.
"I'm just getting started as well," Satoshi responded. This time, he deactivated his beast integration after he descended to the ground. And then, he smirked at Yun Zhe while dusting his shoulders.
"What are you doing?" Yun Zhe asked, appearing in front of Satoshi in an instant while he was defenseless. He proceeded to mercilessly lunge at him with the greatsword, intending to cut his body in half.
