The Human Giant



Having full confidence that his sticky inner vigor was strong enough, Yoze pulled as hard as he could and felt his blood whip instantly tensing up. Before he felt an equal and opposite force pull him towards the platform.

With the sudden force pulling him to the platform, Yoze swiftly reached the platform before Gel could stop him in time. The moment Yoze's feet landed on the solid floor, Geo silently cursed to himself before rushing towards Yoze.

Before Yoze could breathe a sigh of relief, his instincts activated his life-and-death alarm as he saw Geo coldly appearing in front of him with both of his spiked arm guards revealed. Understanding that their battle was about to go up a notch in intensity again, Yoze didn't stop Mindless Legs from taking control of his body and allowed it to deal with the situation.

With Yoze's full trust in it, Mindless Legs seemed to turn Yoze's body into a piece of string and manipulated his body to dodge each of Geo's strikes in impossible ways. Even as Geo used his martial arts technique to accelerate his attacks to the point it looked like he had grown twenty arms, he couldn't land a fatal strike on Yoze.

Even with Geo's composure, he couldn't help but feel increasingly frustrated that he couldn't land a single hit on Yoze. Even the attacks he managed to land were only because they were used to gain more distance.

"Yoze, you really are an extraordinary martial artist!" Geo shouted between his teeth as he paused his endless stream of attacks and moved to the opposite side of the obsidian platform.

"Since I can't get a good land on you with my current martial art skills, it will be better for me, the audience, and the immortals if I begin to use my spells. This way, I can put more pressure on you and make sure this battle doesn't just turn into who can last longer." Geo calmly said as he took a deep breath.

Just as he was going to continue his speech about what he was capable of and how he was achieving his dreams, Geo suddenly realized that he had lost track of Yoze. Suddenly feeling as if a predator was watching him, Geo instantly removed all distractions from his mind and noticed a red blur rapidly approaching him.

Realizing that it was Yoze and he had suddenly seemed to have reached a new level of speed, Geo silently gulped his saliva in nervousness and put up his guard. Just as he expected, even though Yoze seemed to have become faster, it wasn't to the point that he couldn't track him.

He was even able to realize the trick that Yoze had pulled to increase his speed; he had used another one of the multiple inner vigors in his body to decrease his weight. With his body weighing him down less, he was able to achieve higher speeds with the same amount of force.

"Luckily, it seems this is his first time using this method to increase his speed, or else I would have been caught off guard and eaten a powerful punch. " As Geo was once again surprised by how many types of inner vigor Yoze had managed to produce, Yoze quickly caught up with him.

Knowing that things would become worse for him if he allowed Geo to cast spells without any worries, Yoze didn't bother about being polite and ran straight toward Geo, planning not to give him a chance. Just as Yoze was merely a foot away from Geo, he transformed his blood into a giant one-handed axe nearly five feet tall.

As soon as he created the axe, he used his Armored Swordsman Slash martial art technique to cut off Geo's head. With the addition of the martial art technique, Yoze's normal axe chop became blurry and difficult for even Geo to track.

"Click"

Unfortunately, despite the increase in speed, Yoze's Armored Swordsman Slash simply wasn't fast enough to stop Geo from activating a spell. With the sound of Geo clicking his tongue, Geo's spiked arm guards silently exploded sending thousands of shards flying toward Yoze.

Feeling a wave of danger, Yoze changed the target of his axe swing and even used the blood sword he had secretly created to block the shards. Understanding that wasn't enough, given the nature of the shadow armor shards, Yoze gritted his teeth and caused the surface of his Blood Armor to explode.

"Bang!"

"Slurp, slurp, slurp, slurp!" 

The sound of thousands of shadow armor shards slurping up Yoze's blood engulfed the stage as Yoze escaped. Well aware that what was going to happen next was just the beginning.

As Geo watched the shards of his spiked arm guards absorbing nearly a tenth of Yoze's blood, he couldn't help but be excited as he knew that such a massive loss of blood would surely have a large impact on Yoze. Even though he couldn't see Yoze's face due to his remaining Blood Armor, Geo could imagine his pale face as he watched with helplessness as his inner vigor and his blood were being absorbed.

What Geo didn't know was that not only didn't Yoze lose a single strand of inner vigor, but he wasn't in a panic from the massive loss in blood as it was being quickly replaced by his Blood Heart. If it was another Blood Master, this truly would have been a massive loss as they wouldn't haven't been able to quickly retrieve their inner vigor from their blood.

But for someone like Yoze, who had obtained a talent in inner vigor manipulation, he could use the tiny connection between his blood before they blocked the shards to bring the strands of inner vigor back into his body. So, in the end, he didn't suffer as big of a loss as Geo had imagined, but being forced to escape wasn't a good thing for Yoze.

"Clap! Shadow Clone!" Using this opportunity, Geo clapped his hands together and shouted his next spell.
