That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Light Novel, Chapter 345
Chapter 345
They would surely win this battle .
Karman and the others could imagine no other outcome .
Currently, Karman was just a single, mad machine…
“I will crush you . I will crush you with my own hands, Beretta…!!”
–He would not stop until this operation was complete .
And that was how the fight began .
◇◇◇
Intense shockwaves blasted the area as the incredibly heavy Karman charged into Beretta .
He was in complete combat mode and intended to crush Beretta .
The great energy from the reactor was compressed as Karman raised his fist .
Hyper Impact–the Powered Suit’s thick plating covered Karman’s fist, giving it immense destructive force .
The power would be overwhelming .
It exceeded a million horsepower . It would surely turn its target into dust .
However–
Beretta saw the attack coming .
Instead of directly blocking the flow of power, he parried it, throwing Karman off balance and into the air .
In other words, a one-arm shoulder throw .
They say that soft methods often trump brute force, but that was just an illusion .
It was not possible to control the direction of Hyper Impact’s power with just knowledge of how it worked .
You would only get swallowed up with such lukewarm strength .
So there was really only one reason that Beretta was able to throw Karman–it was that Beretta’s power reached that of Karman’s .
“What!?”
“He threw Commander Karman!?”
His subordinates were stunned .
He had moved faster than the speed of sound . They would never have imagined that he would be stopped in such a fashion .
Karman was just as surprised .
However, he quickly rose up and admitted his error .
He did not like to admit that he had underestimated his opponent, but he now remonstrated himself for relying on his own power alone .
“Don’t’ fret! He has combat arts . He is an expert that can react at the speed of sound! Avoid fighting him one on one or at close-range!!”
Karman said without panicking .
His subordinates obeyed, and they surrounded Beretta in an instant .
As for Beretta…
“…Well, well . This is turning out to be quite a hassle . The lack of energy means that ‘Universal Perception’ is not very accurate . The light, wind, heat, sound and my other senses . This fight will be harder than I thought . ”
That’s what he had determined just now .
This was because part of his chest and both arms were not deformed by the heat and impact after parrying Karman’s attack .
That meant that even with Beretta’s ‘Physical Attack Nullification’ and ‘Natural Elements Nullification,’ that he had taken some damage .
Had he been slower in reading the information, that blow may have been fatal .
So the lack of energy was effecting him in those ways .
And so Beretta used ‘Mineral Manipulation’ to liquefy his body .
It healed his body and protected him from attacks .
Still, Beretta kept his eyes on the enemy .
“Hmph . ‘Universal Perception,’ you say? Is that your sensor? It seems quite advanced, but can you dodge this?”
Karman laughed confidently and signaled to his men .
The four Powered Suits that surrounded him immediately went into an offensive posture .
Their next attack would come in waves .
On the surface, the Powered Suits could move at three times the speed of sound .
It was the same as the Murder Dogs, but the internal conditions were very different .
The Powered Suits were much more advanced when it came to standing still and then moving at full speed . But it wasn’t just that .
The Murder Dogs were not good at precise turns . It was like how jet planes were weak against attacks from the side, due to their structure .
Sudden changes in direction would cause both the plane and the pilot to be subject to intense centrifugal force . While Murder Dogs were controlled by computers, they were not built to be able to withstand this from the side .
On the other hand, the Powered Suits allowed them to move freely while going at a high speed .
Of course, moving at three times the speed of sound would have an effect on the person inside .
However, Karman and the others were cyborgs, so there was no problem .
They also had the aid of a support calculation device, allowing them to make the most of their speed and to synchronize with each other .
“Tsk…”
Beretta clicked his tongue as he dealt with their attacks .
His arms and legs were not enough .
And so Beretta used the Ultimate Gift, Deus Ex Machina, to take in the surrounding matter and create several tentacles that were thicker than his arms .
Each of them represented his will and could move freely .
Each of them were sensors and could make decisions immediately .
The sound came later .
So much power was focused in one spot, and anything that got caught inside was turned into dust .
Karman’s men moved while staying out of each others’ way . But Beretta showed he could deal with them, even though he was facing them for the first time . Both sides had to admit the strengths of the other as the chaotic battle continued .
◆◆◆
“…This is pretty crazy . ”
“Hmm . That Beretta . He is trying to take my spotlight…”
“No-no-no! That’s not the problem now, is it!?”
Ramiris was impressed . But Veldora had begun to complain after misinterpreting the situation .
As for Zaza, he felt frustrated enough to shout at them .
The information that his senses allowed him to gather was now being replayed in his head through the analysis device in his brain . It was only after seeing this that Zaza fully understood what was happening .
He had never seen a fight at such speed before .
And so he could not understand Veldora’s reaction while watching this .
They would surely win this battle .
Karman and the others could imagine no other outcome .
Currently, Karman was just a single, mad machine…
