I could only watch in fascinated horror.
The massive tornado of blue energy ripped apart buildings and homes like they were not even there. So much wood and stone and dirt swirled around the column of angry wind, threatening to pull in the clouds themselves. The might of the Hiryu Shoten Ha, the Rising Dragon Ascension, was always a sight to behold even when Ranma had just learned the technique. But now, the power of the maelstrom he had conjured was devastating. The remains of the buildings, or rather lack thereof, was evidence enough.
The final nail in the coffin was a green ball. The column of bright viridian ki that shot into the sky moments ago had finished collecting above the dark clouds, and they burned away as it approached. Ryoga had always been powerful, just like Ranma, but there was no way anyone could have known that the power he could unleash was so… awe inspiring. The orb fell back down to earth like a dying star, and met the swirling tornado. I couldn't watch what happened next, to see three thousand years of Amazon history obliterated in an instant. But I felt the shockwave, heard the roar.
When I opened my eyes there was a wasteland before me, and the battlefield had frozen. Amazon, Musk, Phoenix, it didn't matter who they were fighting moments ago. The mass of people around me, wounded and bloody as they were, cheered. Even the dying girl in my arms whimpered in triumph with what little strength she had left. I could see the tears of joy in her eyes.
The destruction of the Amazon Capital of Joketsuzoku marked the turning point in the war.
My name is Kasumi Tendo, and this is what happened.
