The battle of the colloseum rages on. With the enemies ranks cut by over half, the participants have received a glimmer of hope.

"We're still outnumbered." Coby stated.

"And tired too!" Scott adds as he slashes away the enemies.

"Who gave you the permission to get tired!?" Rex snapped making the two to puff their chests.

"No one sir!" They said in unison.

"Good. Now, let's kick some butts, Blaze on!"

On another part of colloseum, Ace was staring down his father.

"I will put an end to your madness, not just for my sake. But for Reed and Keith!" He declared.

Stark laughed. "Who do you want to help? The brothers you abandoned? The one who would slit his throat at my word. Or the one who's locked up in the dungeon?"

Ace gasped. "What did you do to Keith!?"

"Lower voice, child." Stark said calmly yet the dominating vibes he was giving off made Ace flinch momentarily.

"Do not forget that I birthed and raised you!"

"Our mother birthed us. And she raised us. You turned us to killin

    "I won't stop after the tournament... I'll crush every single thing related to Valhalla." Ace points at Tommaso."Even if it means going against the world. I will destroy Valhalla!"Tommaso grits his teeth. Why was he intimidated by Ace so much?He had just exhibited a form so powerful the walls of the arena cracked from the mere pressure of his transformation.So far, this was the most powerful transformation witnessed in the tournament. Yet, Ace simply played a card of his own."Tck, this can't be happening!" And as the ex-assassin pointed out, Tommaso's time was running out. But that wasn't what bothered him the most. His opponent had declared that he would defeat him before his time runs out."Black Torpedo!" Tommaso dodges a moving Ace. Ace was repeatedly charging at Tommaso while moving like a corkscrew. The attack he labels "Black torpedo" was fast and explosive upon contact.So far, all of the ex-assassin's fights ended in a one-hit knockout. One of these matches was won b

    Clank!Boom! Crackle! Mjolnir, the weapon of the Norse god of thunder. Thunderbolt, the weapon of the Greek god of thunder. These two weapons from different mythologies clashed. "Thunder Mash!" Whenever the two weapons collided, a powerful shockwave occurred. Yellow and blue sparks flew as they canceled each others attacks. Vorus swung his hammer forward. Zod swayed to the right and arched his thunderbolt to cut the broad chest of his opponent.Vorus held his chest as blood spurts out.He licks his blood and smiles. Zod sees this and takes a stance to prepare for the next clash."It's clear I need something more if I want to win." Said the nature's hunter.A powerful aura bursts around him momentarily. As the aura vanishes, his skin turned red. "Over clock X2." He declared. "Ouu." Zod exclaimed. "That's the power I've heard whispers about? It's an honor to go against such power."Zod had the seismic insight and could instantly grasp the power surging through his opponent. "

    Shuntal took off his robe revealing a large muscular body. It was admirable considering his age.He stares off against Barbaros who grins in excitement. With Reginald and Vorus standing behind him."Kiddos," Shuntal faced the duo and smiled. "Why don't you lend a hand to your leader. Ada and I will handle this one." He pointed at Barbaros with his thumb."Hahaha!" Barbaros laughs maniacally. "Finally! A fight worth fighting." "Old man," Reginald glares at Barbaros. "Don't die.""Give my regards to your captain. I won't be here without your efforts." "Thank him yourself," Reginald said nonchalantly. "Come on big guy."Vorus had been staring down at Barbaros the entire time. He clenched his fists. "I'm weak. Too weak. After coming so far, I couldn't match up to him." Reginald seemd to have figured out what was going on in his mind.He places his hand on his shoulder. "I'm not one to give motivation but... Shuntal lost to him once, remember. You did good lasting so long. If you're wo

    "Relic Awakening!" Kira exclaims excitedly as she clashes with Rhea.Kira parried an attack and struck Rhea in the chin. She then grabs the stunned Rhea by the hand and slams her with an elbow.She takes advantage of the gained momentum and strikes her face with a hard right."Tck." Rhea spat blood. "Is that all?" Kira paused. "Something's off." She said softly. She looked at her knuckle, it was bleeding. "Is her body getting harder the more I hit her?""I'll tell you my relic's powers," Rhea spoke up to answer the question."The way your relic gives you a buff the more blood you draw, my relic gives me more power the more blood I lose. This is my blood rush!" Rhea explained. "I see..." Said Kira. "Hihihi." She snickered. "This means that we can keep on fighting!"Rhea gazes at Kira. At first, she had nothing but resentment toward her. But as their battle unveils steadily, she seems to have developed a form of respect for her opponent. The same goes for Kira as well."I'm having

    "This cage of yours won't hold me for long!" He snars at her. She smirks. "I know it won't. But it'll hold just enough for me to show you the fruits of my labor!" She saw flashes of the training she did in secret when Vorus and Conroy were developing their new techniques while Ace, Kaz, and Reginald were in the East. She trained hard not taking a day of rest just so she could prove to her friends and mostly to herself that she's capable enough to stand on par with them.Tommaso began emitting a powerful aura burst to disrupt the cage. "It's only a matter of time." "I have just about enough time!" Maggie declares as she raises her hands. She began to make certain obscure movements. It almost seemed as if she was dancing. A wind current gathered around her. The air was so strong that the spectators had to shield their eyes. "She's able to control this much power?" Tommaso was stunned by the showcase from the historian. "You're a witch. A wind Witch!" He shouts. "You haven't se

"Tck, I wanted to fight Tommaso this round... Well, let's see how he'll far." He pockets his hands and leaps through the sky before landing beside Vorus and taking a sit. "Haha. As expected of the captain. You crushed your opponent without holding back." "Thanks, Vo.""Without wasting any more time, let the next match of the day begin... It's,m Rhea vs Metal!" "Metal?" Rhea's opponent was a man donning the armor of a knight.

The Aegises and enders cheered. "Zoddy..." Kira said with concern. Rhea wrapped her arms around her former opponent. "Those two gave it their all, kind of reminds you of our match." "Hmph, I guess you're right. And knowing how much of a man my Zoddy is, he'd congratulate Ace." "That final attack was narly bro!" "He created an aura burst, then compressed the aura around him into a ball and... Impressive." Keith remarked. "Haha! Was thete ever a doubt that the captain would lose?" Vorus asked no one in particular. "Sir Ace grows stronger with every battle. That's his unique trait." "You're forgetting something, Conbro." Ernie nudges the archer. "You've all gained experience from this tournament in onr way or the other." They have participated in several heated confrontations. Some of which were between themsel

By the way, I'm also rooting for you, I'm a huge fan." His words made the ex-assassin smile. "Right," Ernie wraps his arm over the necks of Ace and Vorus.

    "So, this is it." Ace faced his teammates. He recalled all the difficulties and trials they faced together. "We've been through alot, huh?" Reginald smirked. The others wore saddened expressions. "This goodbye is not forever, sir Ace." Conroy says struggling to put his emotions in check. "Yes!" Vorus exclaims as he throws his arms in the air. "When You return, I shall challenge you, Captain!" "I'll be sure to share my findings with you." Maggie added. "Yeah bro, we'll rock it out when you get back." Ernie added. "I'll keep these rascals in check for you." Said Kaz. "Guys..."

"What do you think of Stally?" He asked with a grin as he puffs out his chest.Zera scans the cruiser momentarily before setting her gaze back to its captain. "She's as vibrant as ever." She remarked with a smile.Ryker wore a stoic expression as he glances at the two. 'Why are they talking as if the cruiser is a living thing?'Just then, Ming approached them."Ming..." Zera said in a cold tone.Ryker felt a chill run down his spine. She gave off the same vibe as earlier when they met. The look was aimed at the android yet he felt restless."Zera..." Ming responded in a similar manner."I see Jackie still hasn't taken you for recycling.""I see you're still trying to pass off as a young and beautiful woman despite being an old hag."A vein popped on the vampire's head.

    "You didn't have to go that far." Tommaso had returned to his room where he was met with the sight of Keith. "I thought you weren't coming till after your match?" "Don't change the subject!" Keith snapped at Tommaso. "Watch how you address me. I'm the captain here." "Pfft. Have you forgotten that I'm merely a part of your clan for conditional reasons? We're here to win the access codes." "Yeah yeah but that doesn't change the fact that I'm thr boss around here." Tommaso brushes off Keith's shoulder and made his way to the bed. He sat down and clutches his hands. His body was shaking excessively as he lowers his head. "That girl was stupid enough to awaken my taste for blood.""You almost killed her. As much as I love a good showing of brutality, that would have disqualified you." "You think your brother would just sit by and let me kill his clan mate? I thought you knew him better than that given that you two are twins." Keith clicked his tongue. "If I was you, I'd be worr

    Ace used his strongest attack to attack Jester as Reginald and the Saints watched the mad clown get encased in the explosion of the massive slash attack."Is that it?" Asked Reginald. "I'm afraid not, lad." The dust clears and Jester remains standing although he had suffered considerable damage from the attack. He held his shoulder as his clones gathered around him. "These are your super clones?""The boy who barely killed one of my fingers has developed this much?" Jester didn't bat an eye away from Ace. He can share the same memories as his clones, so he recalls all the events that transpired with his clone that fought beside Rada Khan. "Harold," Ace looked at the Dark Saint.
