Trying to figure out where she was, Yamato looked around, before turning to Rubedo.
"Huh...I might know who you are? I admit I got a little lost."
"Do you really have no idea who I am?" Rubedo questioned, with an arrogant smile.
Staring at her for a few seconds, Yamato finally smiled stupidly before scratching the back of her head.
"I really don't know who you are! But..."
Showing an innocent smile, she affirmed.
"You look like a cute little doll."
Hearing this, Rubedo lost her smile, while this kind of compliment was a real insult to her.
"I'm going to dismember you."
" Huh ? "
Grabbing her huge battle axe, Rubedo struck the ground with the blade of her weapon and managed to create a huge breach, which allowed him to demonstrate her power.
"There's no way I could lose to a human! With the information Onee-san and Galadriel-sama gave me, it's obvious that victory is already mine! Besides, even if it's great, this woman is only human."
Suddenly starting to smile, Rubedo asked.
"By the way, where is your father?"
"Huh?" Yamato was surprised. " What are you talking about ? "
"Are you stupid? I want to talk about Kaido." Rubedo affirmed, with a mocking smile. "The man who is responsible for Oden Kozuki's death! I heard you were his daughter."
Pretending to show a disgusted face, Rubedo asserted.
"You claim to be a great warrior but you are nothing other than the daughter of the man who killed him! I don't know whether to laugh or be disgusted! What are you trying to do? To further humiliate Oden?"
Hearing this, Yamato pointed her club towards Rubedo.
"Be careful what you say! You might regret your words."
"Why? I'm only telling the truth! You claim to bear Oden's name in order to honor his memory! But yet you have done nothing to avenge him."
Continuing to smile mockingly, Rubedo stated.
"Oden fought courageously against Kaido, unlike you who never had the courage to imitate him! You don't deserve to bear his name! You only insult him."
Hearing this, Yamato gritted her teeth. However, maintaining her calm, she affirmed.
"For a samurai to win his fight, he must always maintain his composure, no matter the circumstances."
Then, raising her gaze, she affirmed.
"You're right! I never had the power to face my father in order to avenge Oden! However, that doesn't mean I never wanted to."
Suddenly, she covered her club with her Busoshoku haki.
"Every day was the same! Every day was just training days! I spent the last years of my life testing my limits in order to surpass them."
Suddenly, Rubedo saw black lightning appear around Yamato's weapon.
"A few days ago, the moment had arrived! The moment when Kaido could have been defeated! I might not have defeated him, but I could have helped Mugiwara do it."
"Mugiwara?" Asked Rubedo.
"I don't know where I am and how I got here." Yamato admitted. "But I have to find Luffy-san and return to Wano Kuni! And then, I will defeat Kaido."
Smiling again, Rubedo affirmed.
"You're just a chihuahua! You're just barking to pretend to be strong! But in the end, it only takes one look from your father for you to bow your head in front of him! You're not worth nothing unlike him."
"That's what we're all about to see." Yamato roared as he rushed towards Rubedo.
Positioning his weapon back, Rubedo then swung it forward and aimed at Yamato's club. And at the moment when the two weapons collided, a shower of sparks could be seen, followed by other black lightning.
Seeming to be of equal strength, the two combatants wanted to push their adversary back, without succeeding. Instead, the ground beneath their feet began to crack. Then, a real crater formed around them. Finding themselves in the center of this crater, the two fighters looked at each other despite the great difference in size between them.
Finally, both their weapons recoiled at the same time and the duo jumped back out of the crater. But while Yamato showed a serious face, a big smile appeared on Rubedo's face.
"You will be a perfect toy."
" A toy ? "
"I have two sisters," Rubedo told her. "But unlike, Albedo and Nigredo don't understand my fantasies! Albedo hates humans and would massacre them without the slightest hesitation! However, unless someone has humiliated her or made her angry, she is not the kind of person who really likes torture! And Nigredo prefers to kill her enemies so as not to waste her time! Me, on the contrary, I love playing with my toys for a long time."
Staring at Yamato with envy, she assured.
"The more powerful and resistant my toys are, the more I love them! As soon as I capture you, I will take all my time to break you! This is the only reason why humans deserve to live! Humans only serve 'to entertain me until I get tired of them.'
"You're crazy." Yamato retorted.
"Only the strong have the right to dominate others." Rubedo affirmed. "And unfortunately for you, I'm one of the top 3 best fighters in this place! But in truth, even if I have to admit that you are powerful, I'm still a little disappointed."
" And why ? "
"No matter what happens, I will defeat you in the end." Rubedo affirmed. "And even if you become a good toy, I deserve better than to have you! In fact, I would enjoy fighting Kaido and then breaking his spirit much more! In truth, if he were still alive, even Oden would have been a better opponent than you! Like I told you, these people have nothing to do with you! You're not on our level."
Unable to calm her anger, Yamato rushed towards Rubedo. But instead of trying to retaliate, her opponent jumped back to avoid her charge, before starting to run. However, Yamato's figure quickly found itself behind her.
"You will not run away."
"I'm not running away." Rubedo retorted.
Now running alongside each other, the two women continued their run, while attempting to hit the other with their weapons. As a result, while they were running at full speed, the two fighters created shock waves that appeared here and there in the room where they were fighting.
"If I fought seriously, the fight wouldn't last long." Rubedo affirmed. "Why don't we have a little fun before we defeat you?"
"Your arrogance will be your downfall." Yamato retorted. " RAIMEI HAKKE! "
Jumping into the air, Yamato raised her weapon above her, before bringing it down with all her might towards Rubedo. Remaining motionless, the little demoness only summoned a magical shield in front of her.
Striking the ward, Yamato created another shockwave, followed by more black lightning. Forced to use her magical power to strengthen the durability of her shield, Rubedo was suddenly surprised to see a crack appear on the surface of her defense.
" Huh ? "
Creating another magic circle, Rubedo created a powerful gust that forced Yamato back. Once Yamato had moved away from her, Rubedo looked at the damage visible on her magic shield and noted that Yamato's offensive strength shouldn't be underestimated. If Rubedo had fun letting herself be directly hit by Yamato, the damage she would receive would certainly not be insignificant.
For her part, Yamato was trying to understand the origin of Rubedo's powers.
"Would you have eaten a devil fruit? It's strange! I have the impression that you have many powers that are quite different from each other! Do you use haki?"
"Tsss! As if I would stoop to learning techniques that were created by humans." Rubedo retorted. "My power is more than enough to exterminate you all."
"That's what we're going to see." Yamato shouted, running towards her. " RAIMEI HAKKE! "
Again, Yamato attacked Rubedo, who was forced to create another magical shield to defend himself. First waiting for Yamato to strike her protection, Rubedo then created a gust of wind to knock her back.
However, anticipating this, Yamato had bent her legs and adopted a defensive stance in order to face the gust. Feeling the gusts of wind whip against her skin, Yamato persevered in remaining still, while her wooden sandals pulverized the ground at her feet every time she was forced to step back an inch.
Seeing her standing in front of her, Rubedo growled in displeasure.
"Do you dare to stand up to me?"
Twirling her ax in her hand, she then aimed the blade of her weapon towards Yamato's neck. However, still anticipating her gesture, Yamato had positioned her club in front of her neck in order to protect her.
Once again, the two women created a shockwave as their weapons clashed.
"You dared to make fun of the esteem I have for Oden Kozuki." Yamato affirmed. "Don't think I can forgive you for that."
"Damn human." Rubedo roared.
Suddenly, she spread her two wings before flying into the air. Then, once aloft, she raised her arm in the air.
" HADES'S FALL ! "
Immediately, a dozen magic circles appeared around her, before targeting Yamato. Creating black lightning, the magic circles forced Yamato to jump back, while their attacks pulverized the ground.
Unfortunately for Yamato, the magic circles continued to target her and attacked again and again. Forced to flee to avoid getting hit, Yamato moved dangerously close to one of the walls of the room. Seeing her on the verge of being unable to flee further, Rubedo affirmed.
"My victory is already decided."
However, she was completely surprised when she saw Yamato perform a backflip and put his feet against the wall. Staring at the magic circles, as well as Rubedo, Yamato stated.
"I found the opening."
" Huh ? "
Bending her legs, Yamato pushes himself forward from the wall. Then starting to smile, she quickly increased her speed. Seeing this, the magic circles remained inactive for a short time, until they could target Yamato again. And even though this moment was brief, Yamato took the opportunity to run a long distance, before jumping towards Rubedo.
Seeing her, Rubedo made a movement with her hand and another magic circle appeared in front of her. Charging itself with energy, the magic circle then created a black lightning which shot towards Yamato.
Unable to dodge it while in the air, Yamato grabbed the handle of her club with both hands. Then, starting to scream, she hit the lightning bolt with her weapon, before managing to eject it backwards.
Turning around, the black lightning struck the magic circle before causing its destruction.
"What?" Rubedo was surprised.
And before she could react, the little demoness saw Yamato find herself right in front of her. Despite reflecting the black lightning, Yamato had managed to capture some of the energy from the attack and it now covered her weapon.
" SHINSOKU ..."
" NO ! WAIT ! " Shouted Rubedo.
" HAKUJAKU! " Yamato shouted, lowering his weapon.
"NOOOOOOOOO!" Rubedo screamed.
But just as she was about to be hit, a mocking smile appeared on the little demon's face. Then, as the club hit her face, Yamato was struck by phenomenal power.
Stunned, Yamato felt his vision blur, while blood ran down her face.
" Huh ? "
Rubedo remained perfectly still. However, unlike Yamato, she didn't have the slightest injury on her, despite the fact that Yamato was certain he had hit her.
" How ? "
Pretending to be sorry, Rubedo asserted.
"I'm sorry! I forgot to tell you something! I have a special ability that allows me to absorb the full power of an attack and inflict whatever damage I would have on my opponent. should have received."
Eyes wide, Yamato felt her body begin to fall towards the ground. Unfortunately for her, Rubedo flew towards her before placing her hands on her abdomen.
"And now we're going to start playing! CERBERUS'S BITE !"
Immediately, flames came out of the palms of her hands, before surrounding Yamato's entire body, who began to scream in pain.
"AHHHHHHHH!"
" HELL'S CHOC !"
Now coughing up blood, Yamato felt a double shockwave come out of Rubedo's hands and hit his abdomen. Thrown towards the ground, Yamato now looked like a real ball of fire. And Rubedo's smile grew longer when she saw this fireball hit the ground.
However, not having finished it, she let her magic circles aim at the place of the fall and their black lightning fell where Yamato's body was. Seeing the attacks unleashed towards the ground, Rubedo pretended to be thoughtful.
"I hope my toy isn't broken already."
However, her smile disappeared in an instant. While a veritable rain of lightning fell towards the ground, everything stopped when an icy wind spread throughout the room. Being frozen, the lightning bolts were frozen before exploding into pieces of ice.
" What is that ? "
Surprised, Rubedo lowered her gaze to the ground. First hidden by the smoke, Yamato's silhouette was visible again. Staring at her, Rubedo saw no change in her, except for the trickles of blood that ran down her face and the burns that covered her arms.
But nothing could explain to Rubedo what had just happened.
"Where did this icy wind come from?"
"You won't be able to defeat me." Yamato affirmed, pointing her club at the demon.
Finally losing her smile, Rubedo growled in annoyance.
"Just because you've managed to stay alive this far, you allow yourself to think you're invincible? Don't make me laugh."
Suddenly her wings grew in size and became three times larger. Two magic circles then appeared in front of her wings, which she began to beat with force.
" AEOLUS'S WRATH ! "
Powerful gusts of wind were created and shot towards the floor of the room. Immediately crossing her arms in front of her, Yamato gritted her teeth as she felt the gusts of wind hit her with force.
Around her, the ground began to crack and blocks of rock flew into the air.
"I am a specialist in hand-to-hand combat or the use of weapons." Rubedo assured. "And I also know how to use fire and lightning magic! But my specialty is wind."
Suddenly making a movement with her axe, she created a huge sharp gust of wind, which headed towards Yamato. Seeing this, her opponent brandished her club in front of her to protect herself.
However, as soon as the gust of wind slammed into her weapon, Yamato immediately felt himself recoil from the power Rubedo's attack contained.
"Did you really think you could stand up to me?" Rubedo asked. "Until now, I've only been warming up! After all, it's not every day that I can reassure myself with a toy like you! But if you persist in annoying me, then I can assure you that our fight will end very quickly."
Again, she swung her ax and created more sharp gusts of wind. Unable to stop them all, Yamato widened her eyes when one of them hit her in the abdomen. Feeling her clothes being torn, Yamato spat out blood, as the gust of wind cut her skin before hitting her flesh.
Smiling as she saw her kneel on the ground, Rubedo passed her tongue over her lips.
"Sugoi! Usually any human would have gotten cut in half! Knowing you're still alive shows that you're really not a shoddy toy."
suddenly, the two magic circles at her wings came together before merging together.
"Here's a reward for you! SKY APOCALYPSE! "
Coming out of this new magic circle, a gigantic tornado was created before falling towards Yamato.
"Get hit and pulverized by this tornado." Rubedo shouted.
The next moment, the tornado touched the ground, where Yamato was.
" I WIN ! " Assura Rubedo.
But again, her smile disappeared as an icy wind was felt. Now resembling a statue of ice, the enormous tornado had frozen solid before Rubedo could even realize it.
" What now ? "
At that moment, a figure jumped onto the huge ice statue and started walking towards Rubedo.
"Like I told you, your arrogance will be your downfall."
Groaning upon recognizing Yamato's voice, Rubedo was then surprised to find that her appearance had changed. Now covered by white fur, Yamato's body now had a very animalistic appearance and resembled an anthropographic dog.
"What is this?" Rubedo asked. "Are you similar to Regina?"
"I ate the fruit of Inu Inu no Mi." Yamato stated. "And because of this, Oden Kozuki will be powerful enough to defeat you."
In response, Rubedo dropped to the ground and placed her feet on the frozen tornado.
"So, here are the powers of one of the fruits my sister told me about! Am I to understand that I need to view you as something other than just a human."
"I am a samurai." Yamato assured. "And I will defeat you."
"And did you come here to also fight against Darkness-sama?" Rubedo asked.
"Who is Darkness?"
"If you don't know her, why are you here?"
"To find Luffy-san's companions." Yamato affirmed. "I need them to defeat Kaido."
Hearing this, Rubedo started laughing again.
"As I told you, you are too weak to fight alone against Kaido! So why do you continue to pretend to be Oden? It's ridiculous! Do you really believe that a man like him, having the strength to against Kaido, could bear such humiliation? You don't deserve to bear his name! In his place, I could never find peace in my grave."
" NAMUJI HYOGA ! "
Taking a deep breath, Yamato then created a powerful icy breath that shot towards Rubedo.
" HADES BLAST ! "
Creating a similar attack, but replacing the ice with flames, Rubedo let her attack hit Yamato's, creating an explosion. Immediately, the room found itself split in two.
Part of the room was now covered in ice, while the other part was covered in flames. But, not interested in this, Rubedo and Yamato disappeared. Then, shock waves were heard again as a club and a battle ax clashed numerous times.
Seeing Rubedo still matching her power, Yamato couldn't help but be surprised.
"How can a little girl like her have so much strength?"
"I'm not a little girl." Rubedo roared. "Say it again and I'll poke your eyes out."
"I have no orders to take from you." Yamato retorted, raising her club in the air.
However, seeing the weapon swing towards her, Rubedo took a simple step to the side in order to dodge it. Only hitting the ground, Yamato was unable to react in time, as Rubedo extended her hand towards her.
" HELL'S CHOC !"
Touching Yamato's arm, Rubedo created a shockwave, which spread throughout her body. Feeling her feet retreat, Yamato couldn't help but grit her teeth. Seeing this, Rubedo hastened to continue her offensive.
" HADES'S BLAST ! "
Another fiery breath left her mouth and hit Yamato's body, who was unable to fight back. Seeing her find herself in the center of a blaze, Rubedo clutched the handle of her ax, before running towards Yamato.
"Say goodbye to his head." She shouted, aiming her weapon at Yamato's forehead.
Unfortunately for her, the moment she entered the inferno, Rubedo saw Yamato staring at her, as if she knew that the little demon was going to act like this.
" Huh ? "
Covering her hand with her Busoshoku Haki, Yamato used the palm of her hand to strike Rubedo's forearm. Stunned, Rubedo felt her arm go to the side, forcing her ax to change trajectory. Then, rushing towards Rubedo, Yamato overtook her, not without giving her a powerful blow with her club to her ribs.
widening his eyes, Rubedo felt as if his ribcage was going to break into pieces. However, she still showed her mocking smile while she felt no pain.
"Have you already forgotten my ability?"
The next moment, Yamato roared in pain as the power of her own attack hit her in the ribs.
" ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH ! "
""You are really stupid. " Affirmed Rubedo, seeing her get down on one knee.
" KAGAMIYAMA ! "
Stopping smiling, when she heard a crack, Rubedo saw an envelope of ice which covered Yamato's body. Having absorbed the power of the last attack, the ice envelope prevented Yamato from receiving any damage.
Turning to Rubedo, Yamato dared to smile at her.
"Did you really think I was going to be fooled twice by the same technique?"
"Tsssss! Why are you happy when your attack had no effect on me?"
"Are you sure?" Yamato asked.
At that moment a crack appeared on Rubedo's axe, and the little demoness barely had time to turn her gaze when she saw his weapon being reduced to pieces.
"I had time to hit her three times when I overtook you." Yamato affirmed. "Therefore, what I did was not useless."
Remaining motionless, while she only stared at the handle of her ax, which she still held in her hand, Rubedo affirmed.
"It was a gift from my big sister."
" Huh ? "
Suddenly, identical to that of Albedo when she was enraged, Rubedo's gaze changed, while she roared.
"No more keeping you as a toy! I'm going to kill you right now."
Feeling a murderous aura manifest around Rubedo, Yamato decided to rush towards her and aimed her club at her opponent's head. Unfortunately for her, Rubedo ducked to avoid the attack. Then, she raised her fist and managed to hit Yamato's chin. Not having time to protect herself, the tall woman felt her jaws snap, while her feet left the ground.
The force of the punch was strong enough for Yamato to fly towards the ceiling, while dropping her club. However, feeling her urges controlling her, Rubedo spread her wings and flew off to pursue Yamato.
"There's no way I'm going to give you the slightest chance to get your act together! I'm going to kill you before you can hit the ground again."
" Really ? "
far from being frightened by the situation, Yamato simply stared at the ceiling which came closer to her. Finally, performing an aerial roll, she found herself upside down while her feet managed to land on the ceiling.
Continuing to chase her, Rubedo saw Yamato staring at her. Then, having flexed her legs, Yamato exerted enough force in her feet to propel himself towards the ground, while Rubedo found herself in her path.
Closing her fist, Yamato covered it with an icy sphere.
" HALLOWED GLACIER PUNCH ! "
Seeing her, Rubedo continued to fly towards her, while letting flames cover her fist.
" HEPHAISTUS'S HAND! "
Then, attacking at the same time, the duo let their fists collide. Still having identical strength, the two women now remained motionless in the air, while they were unable to push their opponent back.
Unfortunately, being in his element, Rubedo let her wings grow larger again. Then, she created powerful winds, which pushed Yamato towards the ceiling.
"Hey! What the...?"
Being silent, Yamato saw Rubedo flying towards her, before placing a hand on her forehead.
" HAND SOUL ! "
Immediately, Yamato felt her body freeze for a short moment, while her eyes closed. But, opening them almost immediately, Yamato was surprised to find herself in a completely dark place. She appeared to be in the middle of space, except the place was far too dark to allow any light to be visible.
"What...? Where am I?"
"You are in your conscience."
Appearing in front of Yamato, Rubedo wore his mocking smile again. Immediately, Yamato wanted to hit her. Nevertheless, her fist passed through Rubedo's face like a mirage.
" Huh ? "
"It's no use." Rubedo said. "This is not my real body! I am only a mirage created by my magic and which has managed to lock you in your own consciousness."
"Why are we here?"
Still smiling, Rubedo showed his right hand.
" HAND SOUL allows me to lock you in your consciousness."
Then she showed her left hand, which began to glow.
"And here are the memories of a certain people, which we managed to steal."
Immediately, a giant screen appeared in front of Yamato and broadcast a scene where Kaido could be seen. However, not being the main character in the scene, Yamato widened her eyes upon recognizing Oden.
Being in a giant pot, and having his body burning to the ground, the man was smiling at Kaido, despite the fact that the man was targeting him with a gun.
" Oden wouldn't be oden ... "
Shooting suddenly, Kaido aimed at Oden's skull which he pierced without the slightest problem. Seeing Oden being killed by her father, Yamato couldn't help but be frozen in place.
" Oden ... How ? "
Rubedo began to chuckle.
"These are the memories of a goon that Demiurge and Cocytus fought in Russia! We killed him here and took what his body could give us, including his memories! What you see is the real execution of Oden Kozuki! The man your father murdered."
Continuing to laugh, Rubedo approached Yamato.
"You're just the daughter of a murderer and you honestly think you're doing the right thing to become a vigilante! Your idiocy is truly laughable! If I were you I would be so ashamed that I would kill myself. "
" Shut ... up. " Said Yamato.
Suddenly other screens appeared around Yamato and showed the misfortunes of the country of Wano since Kaido's arrival.
"Look at what your father did! Look at the crimes your family is guilty of! Honestly, do you really believe that Oden is honored to know that his name is now carried by a human who has the same blood as a monster in his veins."
"Shut up!" Yamato repeated.
At that moment, all the screens showed Rubedo's mocking face, while she questioned him.
"What does a monster like you hope to become? I know it! Worms like you will constantly continue to bow down to the strongest! You pretend to deny it but, you know perfectly well that you will soon be forced to bow down to your father because you are too weak to face him! And when that day comes, I am sure that you will not hesitate to spit on Oden's grave."
" SHUT UP ! "
Suddenly hitting the giant screens with her fists, Yamato began to destroy them to make them disappear. But despite this, nothing could stop Rubedo's laughter from being heard.
"You're a monster! And if you don't believe me, ask their opinion."
And suddenly, hands grabbed Yamato's feet. Appearing in hundreds, corpses began to crawl on the ground and grabbed Yamato.
" That ... ? "
"They are your father's victims." Rubedo affirmed. "Ask them if you're not a monster! Ask them if having the same blood as Kaido is forgivable."
Not knowing what to say, Yamato could only hear the corpses begin to scream.
" MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! "
Hearing them, Yamato felt like she heard their voices echoing in her head. Placing her hands on her head, she felt like her brain was going to explode.
" SHUUUUTTTTTTT UUUUUUPPPPPPP ! "
Appreciating the only one while she saw Yamato start to scream, Rubedo flew behind her, before also placing her hands on her head.
" SOUL DISTORTION ! "
Once again, Yamato found herself frozen. Making darkness appear, Rubedo made it disappear in Yamato's brain.
"Let me transform your emotions! Let me change them! Your anger, your fear, your sadness, your guilt, your shame, your weakness... I will increase tenfold all the shameful feelings you feel! I will break you completely "When I'm done with you, you'll be just an empty shell, incapable of experiencing any joy in life! And you'll become my toy forever."
Remaining motionless, Yamato could only scream, while she could only hear Rubedo's mocking laughter as well as the screams of the corpses that continued to grab her. Unable to move, Yamato began to feel tears streaming down her face, as her eyes turned completely white.
Unable to defend herself, she could only see and rewatch various atrocious scenes that Kaido had committed. Taking wounds to dump Orochi's memories into Yamato's brain, Rubedo knew her mind would shatter in no time.
"You will soon be mine."
Continuing to scream, Yamato felt Orochi's memories surge through her and could see the country of Wano becoming a living hell because of him and Kaido.
"Why?" Yamato wondered. "Why am I the child of this monster?"
" Yamato. "
Suddenly feeling like he heard a voice in her mind, Yamato discerned the silhouette of Oden, who stared at her with rage.
"How dare you denigrate the country of Wano when you have the same blood as the man who destroyed it! You in no way deserve to be treated with the same honor as the samurai! Everything you deserve is ... to die."
And it was because of this that Yamato's mind disconnected.
Continuing to let her darkness fade into Yamato's brain, Rubedo was suddenly surprised to feel her demonic magic being absorbed in large quantities.
" Huh ? "
Unable to control her darkness, she felt it being sucked into Yamato. But instead of going to his brain, the darkness went directly to Yamato's heart and disappeared inside.
Standing in front of Yamato, Rubedo's real body had one hand still resting on Yamato's head, who was lying on the ground with her eyes closed.
"In a few moments, this poor girl will be mine."
Unfortunately, feeling a strange sensation, Rubedo was suddenly thrown back by an invisible force. Flying backwards, she slammed violently into a wall. Then getting up, groaning, she saw Yamato's body, standing in the center of the room, with her head down.
" What ? "
Standing still, Yamato seemed like a statue. In truth, her heart had stopped beating for a second... two seconds... three seconds... four seconds...
It was only after the fifth second that his heart started beating again. And it was at this moment that Rubedo saw a black aura surround Yamato's body.
" What ? "
Slowly raising her head, Yamato whispered.
" I will ... I will ... "
Staring at Rubedo with boundless rage, she roared.
" I WILL KILL YOU ! "
And before Rubedo could react, Yamato's fist appeared in front of her face and hit her hard.
