The moment Alex fully entered his new form, a violent burst of dark demonic energy erupted from his body. The shockwave tore through the atmosphere, ripping across the entire planet like a wrathful tide. The sheer force of it unleashed a catastrophic gust of wind that swept across continents, shattering buildings, ripping landscapes apart, and sending entire cities trembling as if the world itself was screaming in fear. Nations shook. Mountains cracked. Oceans churned violently.
Far away, Mori felt the wave crash into him.
His eyes widened in shock.
"This power… I've felt it before," he muttered, his voice heavy. "It's berserk… but some how its in total control. Oh, come on. Dont tell me!".
Elsewhere, Kinto—still lying down as Rin desperately treated his wounds—felt the same presence. His body stiffened.
"No way…" Kinto whispered. "That energy—I know it. I've felt it before."
His eyes widened in disbelief.
"It's Alex!".
Back on the battlefield, Alex had completely lost himself.
A massive torrent of demonic energy poured uncontrollably from his body, twisting violently into the sky. His eyes burned with madness, a devilish smile carved across his face. The air around him warped under the pressure of his presence. Lightning fell like rain that night. It was hell on earth on the continent of war.
Kazuki stared in absolute horror.
What the hell…? No… no way…! Where did he get that amount of energy from?!
"Alex…" he thought shakily. "He's completely gone mad.". Alex on the other hand was losing it, laughing while looking like the demon he was "AHAHAHAHAAHA!".
Zodia, on the other hand, was thrilled.
"YES! YES!" he roared with excitement. "NOW THIS IS SOMETHING YOU DONT SEE EVERY DAY!".
His grin widened as he spread his arms.
"YOU'VE FINALLY SHOWN YOUR TRUE SELF, DEMON! SO COME AT ME, ALEX STARION!!".
Alex screamed in excitement. In an instant, Alex vanished.
The ground beneath him exploded as he launched forward at unimaginable speed, scattering vast portions of the landscape like dust. Alex and Zodia collided midair, their fists clashing with such force that the sky itself cracked. Both of them grinned like monsters —wild, unhinged, monstrous.
They became streaks of light tearing across the sky, each collision sending shockwaves rippling through the planet. Every impact caused earthquakes to erupt across the world.
Laughing maniacally "HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!", Alex slammed his fist into Zodia, blasting him across the battlefield and sending him spiraling through the sky. Alex chased him relentlessly, appearing above him in a flash before driving his foot down into Zodia's body.
The impact shattered the earth below, triggering another devastating explosion that made the planet quake.
Zodia crashed into the ground.
Smoke cleared.
He stood up slowly, smiling—despite the massive hole torn clean through his chest, his left arm completely gone, blood pouring freely from his body.
"Well, well," Zodia chuckled. "Looks like you finally decided to challenge me… you crash out."
Alex hovered above him, demonic energy surging violently into the sky as he laughed uncontrollably "HAHAHAHAHAA! AHAHAHA! AAHAHAHA!". The pressure of his power alone began to distort the atmosphere, dark clouds swirling rapidly overhead.
Zodia regenerated instantly—his arm reforming, the hole in his chest sealing shut.
He threw his head back and screamed in pure excitement.
"LETS SEE WHO EMBODIES CHAOS BETTER!"
"THE RAMPAGING DEMON, OR THE GOD OF WAR AND CALAMITY HIMSELF!".
Zodia raised the Sword of Calamity, releasing an overwhelming surge of power. The skies darkened even more, worldwide too. Giant tornadoes erupted across the globe, tearing through cities, island and oceans alike.
Zodia leapt into the air at speeds nearly ten-thousand times faster than light, grinning like a madman.
Alex responded by ripping lightning straight from the heavens and hurling it at him.
The explosion lit up the sky—but Zodia burst out of it laughing hysterically "AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!".
Alex laughed too, echoing like a demonic scream "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!".
They clashed again, their battle escalating beyond reason. Their fists met again and again in midair, each collision triggering massive natural disasters. Tsunamis rose across the oceans. Lightning storms engulfed entire continents. The battlefield below was completely incinerated. They were fighting like monster, each blow, kick, slash and blast caused more and more wide spread destruction.
On a distant island, Raquel slammed her hands into the ground.
Towering walls of crystal erupted upward, shielding the island she stood on with Serena and Sukuna. The pressure was immense—her crystals began to crack under the strain.
Serena and Sukuna immediately poured their energy into her, reinforcing the barrier with plasma and electricity that roared with power.
Raquel gritted her teeth as the pressure intensified.
"…Damn it."
Her eyes glowed as she activated her Crystal Eye, summoning massive slabs of reinforced crystal to stabilize the island.
"WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?!" Serena shouted as colossal waves crashed against the barrier.
"I don't know," Sukuna replied grimly. "But this war has completely gone out of control."
Raquel's expression hardened.
"That energy… it's Alex. No doubt about it.", she said with difficulty
Her voice trembled.
"He's fighting someone who forced him into S-rank levels. He's gone on a rampage."
Serena clenched her fists.
"I recognize that power too… but who could push him this far?", she asked.
She looked toward the horizon.
"And the purple lightning earlier—that was Kazuki. Please… let them be okay."
Back in the skies, Alex opened his mouth and unleashed massive beams of demonic energy at Zodia. Zodia weaved through them effortlessly, laughing.
He formed a magic circle midair.
"ALRIGHT THEN,"he said with a grin. "MY TURN!".
"Heaven's Beam!", he called out the name of his attack that shot out from the magic circle. A white beam of light that could counter darkness of all sort.
Their attacks collided—resulting in an explosion so massive it momentarily blinded the planet.
Kazuki stared in disbelief.
"If this keeps going…" he thought, horrified, "the entire world will be gone soon."
He clenched his fists.
"I have to do something."
Energy surged around him as he gathered everything he had left.
"I'll cover the planet with my forcefield," Kazuki muttered. "Even if their attacks break through… I can at least absorb the shock."
His body trembled violently.
"I don't know if this will work…"
He roared "But I won't let Shinki's sacrifice be in vain!"
"Come forth—Dragons of Doom!"
His spirit mark twisted into an inverted cross.
The sky split open.
Gigantic dragons emerged behind him, roaring as they spread across the planet, wrapping their colossal bodies around the world itself—forming a living shield.
All across Earth, people stared up in terror and awe as massive dragons filled the skies.
Elsewhere, Runo—limping through the ruined mountains left behind by her battle with Angel—stopped dead in her tracks.
"…What the hell is happening?" she whispered.
Kazuki screamed in pain as he poured every last drop of strength into maintaining the barrier "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!". His body shook violently, blood dripping from his mouth as he fought to protect the world from two beings who had abandoned all sense of stability and common sense.
Two monsters.
One a rampaging crash out demon.
The other, a god of calamity.
Their battle threatened all existence on the planet.
Kazuki screamed "FUCKING HELL! HURRY UP, ALEEEEEEX!".
