My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—-Chapter 447 Home Court
Without further ado, Midori unleashed another punch, sending a shockwave at Kurogami.
As for Kurogami, he seemingly teleported from one end of the stage to another, sending a shadow beam at Midori before returning to his original position.
Midori dodged with a crazy somersault, and then he unleashed a kick this time. He was about to say 'full cowl' but he knew that copyright infringement was no joke so he didn't shout the name of another iconic move.
Kurogami blocked the kick, but he underestimated its power and he was sent flying.
Fortunately, before any part of his body touched the ground out of bounds, he vanished from one shade and appeared on the stage.
Technically, not a part of his body touched the ground so it couldn't be ruled as a loss for him.
Since Midori had ample time to prepare, he unleashed a hundred percent of his Berserk superpower. He didn't want to prolong the fight anymore.
As soon as Kurogami reappeared on one of the shades, Midori was right on his face. This caused Kurogami to panic, and he teleported to another shadow on the stage.
But as soon as he reappeared, Midori was right in front of him for the second time. This was when he realized that it wasn't a coincidence.
Midori was really keeping up with his speed.
Of course, how could Midori not go head-to-head with him when there were only a handful of shadows in the middle of the field?
Effortlessly, Midori just had to anticipate where Kurogami would pop up, and then he would rush there. 'As soon as I catch him off-guard, I'll punch him so hard he'll see stars.' Midori said to himself as he continued his hilarious game of whack-a-mole.
Except there was no whacking involved, just a peek-a-boo here and there.
The intimidation made Kurogami slightly panic, and it didn't take long before he slipped.
As soon as he teleported on one end, he decided to fire off a shadow ball in the hopes that he would catch Midori off-guard.
But Midori was expecting him to attack. In fact, he had been looking forward to it so he could finally make his move.
There was a brief pause when Kurogami stopped in front of Midori. In a split second, he fired off a shadow ball straight at Midori's chest.
BABAM!
The attack connected, and it created an explosion that should've sent Midori keeling over backward.
To everyone's surprise, Midori simply tanked the attack and punched Kurogami on the solar plexus. It was a clean punch, and Kurogami wheezed in pain as he collapsed on the ground.
"A clean hit!" Knighthawk announced from the sidelines. He was surprised that Midori managed to endure Kurogami's attack.
Quiter frankly, it wouldn't have been possible for Midori to get out of that attack unscathed. He was actually hurt, and he broke a couple of his ribs. However, thanks to his insane healing ability, he could heal the damage he suffered.
In hindsight, though, he wasn't free from the pain of broken ribs. He felt it to the core, and for a moment he thought he was going to die since he couldn't breathe.
But he pushed through and punched Kurogami before he fell on one of his knees. "That hurt." He let out.
"Same here," Kurogami honestly replied as he continued wheezing in pain.
Midori wasn't going to give him enough time to recover though. Without missing a beat, he charged forward and delivered a hook aimed at Kurogami's head.
Kurogami disappeared and reappeared by the corner of the stage.
The audience could tell that Kurogami's superpower was pretty good. However, they didn't like his way of fighting. It was cowardly since he always kept on retreating like that.
Even the other superheroes found his fighting style a bit of a pain. It was annoying, but it worked.
"Fight him!"
"You keep on going back!"
"Why you chickening out?"
"What a coward!"
They couldn't cheer for Midori either since he was just a musclehead who charges frontally at the enemy. It was a barbaric fighting style, and it didn't work in the professional superhero setting.
Either way, the fight was interesting. Who cares if they didn't want to cheer either side?
Rumble. Rumble.
While Midori and Kurogami traded blows, the skies slowly darkened.
It was going to rain.
A hint of panic appeared on Midori's face as he lowered his point of balance and charged at Kurogami even faster. This time, he managed to catch him off-guard, and he headbutted Kurogami, sending him flying.
Kurogami's head was shaken up, and his right temple bled due to the impact.
Seeing that it was about to get out of hand, Knighthawk stepped forward with the intention to stop the match. But before he could raise his hand, he noticed that Kurogami wasn't the least bit fazed.
To top it all off, he was smiling.
Wiping the blood before it dripped on his eyes, Kurogami charged at Midori.
At this point, a light rain ensued, and the entire ceiling of the Coliseum was covered in rain clouds.
"This is my win," Kurogami announced.
As soon as his punch connected, he disappeared. He then reappeared behind Midori and punched him on his side.
Before Midori could recover, Kurogami vanished once again, reappearing right at Midori's blind spot as he cleanly delivered a low kick.
His movements got faster and faster until he was just a blur.
'What's going on? Kurogami wasn't like this at the start of the match.' Midori asked himself. No matter where he looked, he couldn't see where Kurogami was, nor could he sense his presence.
It's as if he was fighting with a shadow. ｆ𝑟𝑒𝐞𝚠𝒆𝚋𝚗૦𝐯ℯ𝙡. com
That's when he realized that he indeed was fighting with a shadow. Now that thick clouds covered the sky, everything below was covered in shadows. Kurogami could now freely spawn anywhere he wanted.
Midori came to the acceptance that he was playing on Kurogami's home field.
A shadow ball here, a shadow beam there, an uppercut, Kurogami relentlessly attacked Midori, not giving him a split second of a break so he won't have time to heal himself.
This one-sided beating lasted for five minutes before Midori finally raised his hand.
"I forfeit." He announced.
