"Death wish!"
Listening to Evil Peter's mocking reply, Mephisto's expression twisted slightly.
As a Hell Lord, when had he ever suffered such provocation?
The black energy of the all-black the necrosword in his hand surged, instantly transforming into a black streak that spanned the sky, carrying enough resentment and curses to slay Gods, and slashed straight down at Evil Peter's head!
"Killing you first, then dealing with that hypocritical clone of yours is just the same!"
This sword strike seemed intent on splitting the entire Mirror Dimension in two.
Wherever the blade passed, space shattered layer by layer, emitting an overwhelmed wail.
However, facing this World-destroying blow, there was not a trace of fear on Evil Peter's face; instead, a glimmer of excitement appeared.
"Oh? Really? I don't believe it."
Evil Peter immediately blurted out the classic triple denial.
He then reached out into the void, and the next second, the longsword in Sif's hand flew out, landing in Peter's hand at near light speed.
Excalibur! Excalibur!
"Hammer of the Vile King, reverse the morning light."
As Evil Peter chanted, the originally magnificent golden blade was visibly stained black and red.
Due to Evil Peter's own nature, even excalibur took on the form of being corrupted by black mud.
A black-red light soared into the sky, and the aura of destruction it emitted was even more exaggerated than the all-black the necrosword.
"Devour the light, Excalibur!!"
With a loud shout, Evil Peter held the longsword high. From the blade, black-red light shot into the sky, condensing into a pure, vast torrent capable of purifying all filth in the World!
Boom—!!!
The black-red sword light and the black energy torrent of the all-black the necrosword collided violently in mid-air!
In that instant, the whole World lost its sound and color.
Seven billion viewers around the World could only see a blinding white light through their screens, followed immediately by violent shaking that seemed ready to shatter the screens themselves.
When the light faded, people finally saw the result.
The black-red light cannon, its momentum undiminished, forcefully pushed that black streak back!
The all-black the necrosword in Mephisto's hand, this Symbiote divine weapon that had caused countless Gods to fall, was now emitting a mournful wail like a frightened Beast. The dark energy on the blade was being scorched by that pure light, sizzling and dissipating continuously.
Mephisto himself was shaken back repeatedly by this immense force, his face filled with disbelief.
How is this possible?!
The all-black the necrosword was a weapon forged by the Symbiote God using the remains of a Celestial; its essential power was extremely high. How could it be suppressed by a mere human's light cannon?
"Is that all you've got?"
Having landed a hit, Evil Peter looked at Mephisto, whose body was half-eroded by Excalibur, and mercilessly activated his mockery mode.
"I thought a Hell Lord would be something special, but it seems you're nothing more than this. Your sword is trembling."
"You!"
Mephisto was so angry that he trembled all over, his red face turning the color of a pig's liver.
Realizing that he couldn't gain any advantage in a long-range beam struggle, he immediately retracted the all-black the necrosword, flashed his figure, and lunged directly at Evil Peter, intending to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
As a Hell Lord, his physical body was also incomparably formidable. In his own Hell dimension, he was an immortal and indestructible existence.
However, fast as he was, Evil Peter was even faster!
Almost at the very moment Mephisto moved, Evil Peter moved as well.
He simply discarded the Excalibur in his hand, his entire body turning into a crimson streak of light, advancing instead of retreating, and collided head-on with Mephisto!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The collision of fists and claws exploded in the air, creating visible waves of air.
The two fought from the ground to the sky, and from the sky to the ocean basin, moving at extreme speeds, leaving behind only a series of blurred afterimages and deafening sonic booms.
But anyone with an eye could see that this brawl was a one-sided affair from the start.
Mephisto's fighting style was full of primitive wildness and brutality, wide-open and entirely reliant on instinct.
Meanwhile, Evil Peter had integrated all the combat techniques Peter himself had learned, amplified by Observation Haki and the Mangekyo Sharingan. Every punch and every kick was tricky and ruthless to the extreme, perfect like a textbook.
In just a few dozen seconds of engagement, Mephisto was already covered in wounds.
His chest had been caved in by punches, his arms twisted and deformed by leg whips, and his face was beaten black and blue, looking utterly wretched.
"Red clown, are you sure you're not trying to make me laugh on purpose?"
Listening to Peter's malicious mockery, Mephisto's expression couldn't help but turn even uglier.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
While activating the Reality Stone and hell energy to heal his wounds, Mephisto roared frantically in his heart.
Seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage in close combat and was instead being beaten like a punching bag, Mephisto was finally thoroughly enraged.
"Since that's the case..."
He suddenly put distance between himself and Peter, and roared to the sky with a sound that didn't sound human.
"Then let me show you my true form!"
Rumble!
His already tall body began to swell frantically at this moment, muscles knotting and bones growing rapidly.
Ten meters, one hundred meters, one thousand meters...
In the blink of an eye, Mephisto transformed into a crimson giant with his head touching the sky and his feet treading the earth, and the all-black the necrosword in his hand became as huge as a mountain range.
He looked down at Evil Peter, who was like an ant below, his voice like rolling thunder.
"Damned human, tremble before absolute power!"
A huge shadow completely enveloped Evil Peter. That sense of oppression was enough to make anyone with a weak will collapse on the spot.
However, Evil Peter curled his lips:
"Sigh, why is it that you villains are so unoriginal? You just keep repeating this Gundam-style beam clash."
"You like playing Gundam beam clashes, right? I get what you mean."
As he finished speaking, he slammed his hands together.
"Susanoo!"
Amplified by the crimson Phoenix Force, a crimson energy giant, with Evil Peter at its center, shot into the sky, rapidly constructing a body no less massive than Mephisto's!
This wasn't over!
"Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands: Top Transformed Buddha!"
The moment the Susanoo took shape, Evil Peter formed seals again.
Rumble rumble!
The earth cracked, and countless giant trees burst from the ground. Using the Susanoo as a skeleton, they rapidly entwined and fused, eventually transforming into a wooden Buddha half a head taller than Mephisto, with thousands of giant arms growing from its back!
And the dark red Susanoo, like armor, perfectly covered the surface of the Buddha's body.
Making the originally solemn-looking Buddha look more like a thousand-armed demon God at this moment.
Plus... Senkei: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi!
Global viewers watched the dark red, thousand-armed demon God on their screens, with each of its thousand hands holding a crimson longsword, possessing both majesty and dominance, and collectively lost their voices.
Even the corners of Mephisto's mouth opposite him couldn't help but twitch wildly.
Come on, buddy, who among us is actually the devil!
