Fortunately, Satotz left shoulder only suffered a superficial wound, with a trickle of blood, but it wasn't severe enough to affect the movent of his left arm.
At the critical mont, Satotz managed to gather a portion of his Nen at his left shoulder. Although he didn't fully defend against the attack, he had minimized the damage as much as possible. None of these were the reasons for his troubled expression.
From Satotz perspective, after Wrath unleashed that powerful punch, the aura surrounding his body didn't weaken at all. Instead, it returned to the sa intensity as when he first launched his attack!
"This must be the manifestation of Wrath Nen ability. I just didn't expect his aura to recover so much! This is going to be tough..." Satotz stared intently at the ferocious Wrath across from him, beads of cold sweat faintly appearing on his forehead.
He silently thought to himself.
'Now, the only option was to stall!'
Looking at the vigorous Wrath, Satotz firmly decided in his heart. His original plan was to wear Wrath down and then use his Nen ability to eliminate him.
But now, it seed better to focus on buying ti rather than trying to defeat him, waiting for reinforcents to arrive!
Satotz hadn't revealed his Nen ability, but Pyon had inford him about this companion. Pyon Nen ability wasn't much of a secret among many Nen users, as she had been taking on missions for the association for years, making it hard to conceal.
However, the ergency button on this phone was known to only a few! The exception was whenever Pyon went on potentially dangerous missions, she would inform trusted partners about it.
Thus, in the following attacks, Wrath clearly sensed Satotz "avoidance of combat" attitude.
If Satotz had been like a charging bull earlier, now he was more like a nimble monkey. He no longer sought direct confrontations but instead fought to conserve his aura, avoiding Wrath strategy of sustaining himself through battle.
Akira seriously suspected that Satotz had practiced yoga. Several tis, Wrath was on the verge of hitting Satotz, but each ti, he dodged with movents beyond what an ordinary person could imagine.
Akira refocused his thoughts. While the battle between Wrath and Satotz was intense, what concerned him more was Envy, who had been watching him with an inscrutable gaze.
"Keh keh keh keh keh..." A chilling laugh echoed through the dimly lit cavern.
It was Envy laughter!
"It seems I'll have to step in after all..." Envy hoarse voice rang out, ignoring the enraged Wrath beside him. His sinister, triangular eyes fixed directly on Akira.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
Envy walked step by step toward Akira, not showing the slightest regard for him. In his view, the strongest among the three was Satotz, who was now being held back by Wrath.
Of the remaining two, Pyon couldn't be touched yet, leaving Akira as soone he could easily manipulate!
If Gengar Shadow Ball earlier had been a serious attack rather than a casual one, Envy wouldn't be underestimating Akira like this now.
Seeing Envy, who had been observing, suddenly join the battle, both Pyon and Satotz expressions darkened, like stagnant water, looking extrely grim. Dealing with just Wrath alone was already difficult for them, and they could only hope to win through stalling tactics. Now, they faced the worst-case scenario—both of them entering the fray!
Pyon also stopped her phantom-like finger movents, looking sowhat lost and helpless as Envy approached step by step. Hearing the conversation between Wrath and Envy, Pyon knew it was the chairman reputation that protected her.
She might not be in imdiate danger... But... what about Akira and Satotz? Pyon mind raced, trying to find a glimr of hope... but she found none!
Glancing at Akira, who stood calmly beside her, Pyon lightly bit her lip and finally made up her mind!
"Hmm?"
Seeing Pyon suddenly standing in front of him, Akira seed to realize sothing and couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
"Pyon, what are you doing?"
Pyon shielded Akira behind her, her left hand forming a palm stance while her right hand tightly gripped her phone, adopting a battle-ready posture.
A not particularly intense, but evidently solid aura burst forth from Pyon body!
"What else? Naturally, I'm protecting my friend!"
...
"Heh heh heh... a friend, huh?" Following the voice, they saw Envy suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, the hoarse sound resembling the quack of a duck, utterly grating to the ears.
"Anyway, as long as I don't kill you, I'll grant your wish to protect your friend!"
"Whoosh whoosh..."
Colorful snakes began to crawl out from Envy body, erging from his sleeves, from beneath his robes... These snakes, without exception, are all materialized constructs ford from Nen!
Extre Venom King Snake: One of the venomous insects of envy, composed of the world's most potent toxins combined with Nen energy, its poison is extrely deadly!
Watching the venomous snakes with nacing eyes crawl toward him, Pyon couldn't help but shudder.
"Gardevoir, Psychic, Teleport!" At that mont, Akira calm voice reached Pyon ears.
